Face in a window
I even tried to look around, but we had already driven past that house. The bus pulled up to the stop, opened the doors, and I saw that pale face again. Only now it was in the window of another house. He was standing just outside the stop and I could clearly see it was a girl and she was looking straight at me. Without blinking, with a direct look, she stared at me unkindly, and I couldn't look away. Her face, by the way, was ordinary, except for pallor. Normal human traits, no creepiness. Only the eyes are very dark.

The Touch of a Stranger
It should have been the least stressful part of his day, but it was something Steve would never quite get over. The kids had been bugging him to take them to the fair all week, but Steve would have, honestly, rather taken off his skin with a cheese grater. He'd been working all week, and his legs were killing him, but that wasn't the biggest issue at play. The thought of bumping elbows and shoulders with people in a setting like that made him feel squeeby just thinking about it, though Steve would never admit it.

Bad Vibes
The town of Millville had always been a peaceful place, nestled in a valley surrounded by rolling hills and dense forests. The people who lived there were friendly and welcoming, and there was a sense of community that was hard to find in many other places. But lately, something had changed.

Backrooms Decrypted: The Insulation (Enigmatic Level)
The Insulation is the enigmatic level of the backrooms. It has a CLASS 4 survival difficulty rating. It is UNSAFE and UNSECURE, with a MEDIUM ENTITY COUNT. The insulation is a labyrinth of fiberglass walls and ceramic tiles, with a musty odor reminiscent of an attic. The region itself features light and dark parts, as well as spaces in between, and is known as "The Limbo" (more on that later). The insulation is linked to Levels 4 and 3, which reveals the random pipework and form of the level, however this, as well as the color of the fiberglass, might vary depending on which region you are in. 🐊👅🤮

Jorogumo (part 4 of 4)
CHAPTER 4: IAN Matt wondered for quite some time. He had no one to console him; no one to untwist the warped thoughts in his head. Hunger, thirst, and his thoughts had slowly been driving him mad. What he would give to see his Susan again. What he would give just to see sunlight again. He thought about all the pain he caused others...all the pain he caused himself. He thought about what would happen to him immediately after he pulled that trigger. But mostly, he thought about his little girl.

Exploring the World of Shinigami: From Folklore to Modern Pop Culture
Shinigami is a term from Japanese culture that is often translated as "death god" or "death spirit." In Japanese folklore, shinigami are supernatural beings that are responsible for taking the souls of the deceased to the afterworld. They are typically depicted as skeleton-like figures with long, flowing robes, and they are often associated with the concept of death and the passage of the soul from life to the afterlife. In popular culture, shinigami are often portrayed as malevolent or terrifying beings, although some depictions of shinigami are more neutral or even benevolent.
