One night, I woke up from a terrible dream. As I opened my eyes, I saw a white figure that looked like a little girl. I was so scared that I closed my eyes tightly. When I peeped them open again, she was in a different position! I was too afraid to open my eyes again, fearing she would be right next to my bed. So, I kept my eyes closed and eventually fell back asleep. The next morning, I told my sister and mother about what had happened, including the dream. They didn’t believe me and said I was just imagining things because of the dream.

That night, I woke up again, but not from a dream. My body has a way of sensing when there’s a spirit around, and it wakes me up. I saw the little girl again and was terrified. I didn’t know what to do, so I closed my eyes and tried to go back to sleep, but the fear kept me awake. When I heard my mom was awake, I told her I was seeing the girl again. She told me to try to go back to sleep, so I did. But I kept seeing her for three nights in a row. Finally, my mom and I prayed for the girl to leave me alone, and she did.

A couple of months later, as my mom and I were about to fall asleep, we heard a voice say, “Ok…” It was scary! I asked my mom if she heard it too, and she said yes. We didn’t know what it was, but we tried to get some sleep. The next morning, I told her I thought it was the little girl I had seen before. My mom suggested that maybe God had asked her to come to heaven. It made sense to me. That night, I prayed for the girl to leave me alone and never come back. Since then, I haven’t seen any sign of her, but I feel like she’s watching over me. My life has been better without her encounters, and I feel safer and happier. But I’m still afraid of spirits and wonder what I might encounter next.

The Lantern Keeper’s Bargain

I never believed in ghosts, not really. I was a student of chemistry, a girl who trusted in equations and measurable outcomes. That was before the autumn of my junior year, before I met the old woman with the lantern. I was attending Meridian University, a sprawling campus of ivy and brick, but my aunt […]

The Marigold Gate

I never believed in the stories my mother told until she told me this one, and I saw the scar on her palm. It was a thin, white line, like a crack in a porcelain cup. She said it was from the night the cat came back, and I never forgot the way her voice […]

The Empty Rocking Chair

I was seventeen when I went to stay with my older sister, Mara, and her family in their old farmhouse out in the countryside. The house had been in her husband’s family for generations, and it creaked and groaned like an old man’s bones. I never believed in ghosts, not really—not until that September. My […]

The Warped Floorboards

My parents had always been thrifty, but buying the old Crestwood place was a stroke of financial genius that bordered on the macabre. The previous owners, the Harlow family, had been notorious recluses, and the house had sat empty for nearly a decade after old Mrs. Harlow drank herself to death in the kitchen. The […]

The Ceiling’s Last Tenant

The moment we stepped into Aunt Mira’s new place in the dry, dusty edge of Kallar, I felt a wrongness in the air—like the house was holding its breath. It was a two-story shell of bare concrete and unpainted walls, echoing with our every word. My cousin Ravi, the eldest, laughed and called it ‘a […]

The Hollow Strobe

I never thought much about the old lighthouse on the bluff, not until the day I moved into the keeper’s cottage. The place had been abandoned for decades, but the previous owner left a peculiar contraption in the parlor: a brass lantern with a cracked glass lens, bolted to a wooden stand aimed directly at […]

The Empty Classroom

The old high school in Millbrook had a reputation, but not for ghosts. It was just old, with creaky floors and drafty windows. I’d never believed in the rumors, not even when my friend Jake swore he saw a figure on the football field at dusk. I was a skeptic, until that Tuesday morning. I […]

The Mirror’s Debt

It was the afternoon of my final exam results at the university, and I had just returned from the registrar’s office with a slip of paper that felt far too light for something that held my future. My name is Mara, and I live in an old apartment building in the city of Verloren, a […]

The Fifth Step

Our new house in the dusty outskirts of Barrow Creek was a two-story skeleton wrapped in peeling white paint. The previous owners had left behind a sagging porch and an attic with a pull-down ladder that I avoided like a plague. My mother, my sister Callie, and my brother Danny, who saw the world in […]

The Count of the Empty Rooms

The move was supposed to be a fresh start for the Callahan family. For months, the sprawling Victorian on Arbor Street had been a promise of space and quiet after the cramped bustle of their Chicago suburb. But the promise curdled the moment the keys turned in the lock. The house was cavernous, its high […]

The Frost That Breathed

The summer I turned twelve, the world forgot what heat felt like. It was the last week of July, two days before I was supposed to start at my new school in the city, and my parents had sent me to stay with my grandmother in her old farmhouse, miles from anywhere. The house was […]

The Hanging Lamp on Vine Street

I never believed in ghosts until I moved into the old duplex on Vine Street. The previous tenant, a retired seamstress named Mrs. Kowalski, had died in the bedroom, and the landlord warned me it might have a ‘peculiar atmosphere.’ I laughed it off, but the rent was cheap, and I needed a place near […]
