The Room With No Windows
When I first moved into the old apartment building downtown, the landlord gave me one rule: “Don’t go near Room 6B.” I thought he was joking. The place was falling apart anyway—peeling wallpaper, flickering lights, and creaky wooden floors that groaned under every step. Why would one room matter more than the rest?

The Taxi Ride I Wish I Never Took
I had always taken late-night taxis in the city, but something about that night felt wrong from the start. The rain poured in thick sheets, and the streets were almost deserted. When the old yellow taxi stopped for me, I felt a chill crawl up my spine, but I forced myself inside.

The Smurl Haunting: A Family's Terror and the Warrens' Battle Against Darkness
The Shadows of West Pittston: The Smurl Family's Unseen Torment and the Warrens' Unyielding Pursuit In the quiet, unassuming town of West Pittston, Pennsylvania, where the Susquehanna River winds lazily through neighborhoods lined with modest homes, the Smurl family thought they had found their slice of the American dream. Jack and Janet Smurl, along with their four children, moved into a duplex on Chase Street in 1974, sharing the space with Jack's parents. It was a place for family gatherings, backyard barbecues, and the simple joys of everyday life. But by 1986, that dream had twisted into a nightmare that would draw the attention of the world's most renowned paranormal investigators: Ed and Lorraine Warren.

Shadow Beings
Encounters with Shadow Beings: A Paranormal Investigation Many of us in the paranormal field have heard of—or even seen—shadow beings. These entities, often referred to as "shadow people," are typically described as being darker than darkness itself. Some witnesses only catch glimpses of them out of the corner of their eye. Others report seeing them clearly, and even feeling their presence. But what are these beings? Where do they come from? What do they want? Are they good or evil? Or perhaps they aren’t even aware of us at all. Maybe we are as much a mystery to them as they are to us.
