Untouched

Rose

Tracy watched silently from the corner of the room as the mother and daughter giggled together, their bond strong and unbreakable. Ever since discovering a way to possess the living, she had lingered in this house for weeks. Tracy was not like other ghosts. She didn’t seek revenge or unleash terror upon the living. No, her purpose was different. She craved something she had never experienced in her short, tragic life. Tracy’s memories of her time as a living child were filled with neglect and abandonment. She had been a forgotten soul, left to fend for herself in a world … Continue reading Untouched

In “The Mystery Pit,” two curious children stumble upon a strange and massive hole in the ground, and they can’t resist investigating it. They throw rocks into the pit to see how deep it is, but they hear nothing, leading one of them to suggest something much heavier. Things take a dark turn when one of the children is pushed into the pit, and the other returns home alone.

Little Whispers

Rose

“Let me tell you, do not stay at school after 6 pm.” Louis continued, “last day I heard our teachers discussing about a ghost who haunts our school. Can you imagine, the kid is about our age. Somebody might have murdered him. Anyway, all I know is he haunts our school and trust me it is true.” Everyone stared at him with wide eyes. ‘What if he was saying the truth?’ Everyone had this question but didn’t say anything out loud, scared or laughed at. “Haunting, ghost… nonsense. He is trying to scare us.” Greg came as a saviour now. “No, I … Continue reading Little Whispers

The Candyman

Rose

It’s already 5’o clock in the evening, and I am waiting at the bus stop near my school for someone to give me a ride back home. My Maths teacher thinks I am weak in mathematics, so she asked me to stay after school for special tuitions. Yesterday night she rang my mother and told her how weak I was in that subject; I wish she hadn’t done that. I didn’t like staying after school. I will have all those evil thoughts about everything. Honestly, I am scared. What if something unfortunate happens here after 5 pm? My friends tell … Continue reading The Candyman

Conundrum (Chapter 9 – The Light)

Rose

Cathy went speechless. She didn’t know what to say. “I know you are still mad at me,” said David. “You might be thinking I abandoned you. I did, but as I witnessed Angelyn’s growth, I thought you should be with us. When I realized my mistake, it was too late. You would have been three by then. I came looking for you at that house where I left you, but the landlord said that the family had already left. I didn’t know that your lifeless body was there inside. I am sorry, Cathy, I was not thinking straight then. I … Continue reading Conundrum (Chapter 9 – The Light)

Conundrum (Chapter 8 – The Mad Lover)

Rose

“Us; John and me. We loved her. He loved her more, that’s what he said. That’s why he preserved her. That’s what we do when we love someone. We preserve them as a symbol of our love.” Tommy sounded triggered.  His eyes shined as he said about preserving them. Victoria, who stood there listening, said, “His thoughts are manipulated by John, John has put these things on his mind. Ask him what John had done to preserve me. Ask him!” “Tommy, I know you loved your mother. I know you wouldn’t hurt her. I know you saw what John did … Continue reading Conundrum (Chapter 8 – The Mad Lover)
