It began on a quiet evening when I found myself home alone, enjoying the sounds of my favorite pop songs. The volume was high, and I was lost in the rhythm, feeling carefree. Then, a strange sound pulled me back to reality—a voice, faint but unmistakably there, drifted from the speaker. I dismissed it as a trick of my mind, but curiosity lingered.

As the songs continued, I swore I could hear a girl’s voice interspersed with the music. A chill ran down my spine, and I quickly switched off the tunes. Trying to rationalize it, I turned the speaker back on to hear if it would happen again. At first, silence reigned, but soon the voice emerged once more, clearer this time. Fear flooded over me, and I quickly cut the power again.

After a moment of hesitation, I decided to confront the situation. I turned the speaker on and, with trembling fingers, asked if she meant any harm. The response was a faint murmur, like someone struggling to communicate. My heart raced as I realized I was no longer alone in the room.

Feeling overwhelmed, I stammered out that I was frightened and needed to leave, shutting off the speaker in a panic. I sat in silence, wondering if I had truly heard something or if it was just my imagination playing tricks. Yet, deep down, a part of me knew I had to find out what this mysterious voice wanted. The evening had become an unexpected mystery, and I felt drawn to uncover the truth behind it all.

The Lamp at the Edge of the Field

At the edge of the Petersen’s farm, there stood a solitary lamp post that had been dead for years. I used to think it was just a rusted relic from a time when the field was a parking lot for a drive-in theater. But since I moved into the old farmhouse that came with the […]

The Hum Above the Ceiling

After the move to the outskirts of a small town in the Pacific Northwest, Maya and I thought we had finally found our haven. The old farmhouse creaked with age, but it promised peace away from the city’s clamor. Maya was four months pregnant, and we were overjoyed, painting the nursery a soft butter yellow […]

Four Unexpected Visitors

This is my first story and it isn’t about me, but it is about someone very close to me! My mum – Christine. When Christine was about seventeen, she lived with her mum in Wales. She and her mum lived in a small rented apartment, which meant that Christine had to walk through my nana’s […]

The Lantern That Never Went Out

I was six when my mother married John, a man with a daughter named Lena, and we moved into the old farmhouse that his grandparents had left him. It sat at the end of a gravel lane, the last house before the woods swallowed the road whole, and the only other neighbors were the Hendersons, […]

The Cape at the End of the Hall

Evelyn had always hated the hallway of their new flat. It stretched from the living room to the bedroom like a dark throat, with a single overhead bulb that flickered and moaned. She’d told Marcus it felt wrong, like walking through a held breath. He’d laughed, called her a superstitious artist, and hung a mirror […]

The Cinder Room

I’d been house-sitting for my aunt and uncle for a week when I decided to use my cousin’s old bedroom. It was the only one with a decent spare bed and a TV, and I thought I’d be comfortable there. My cousin, Lila, had asked me repeatedly if I was sure, her eyes darting to […]

The Grain of the Walls

In the autumn of 2007, I traded the ceaseless din of Chicago for a silent patch of land in western Kansas, near the town of Hoxie. My parents had bought a single-wide trailer and parked it on a bald acre of prairie, the nearest neighbor a half-mile off. The first weeks were a benediction of […]

The Cleaver in the Pines

Maya and I were doing our usual laps around the old gravel track that hugged the tree line. The autumn air was crisp, carrying the smell of damp leaves and something faintly metallic, like old coins. We were joking about our history teacher’s toupee when a flicker of movement caught my eye. At the edge […]

The Green Pea Incident

My name is Elara, and I’m sixteen. Since we moved into this old farmhouse on the edge of Morrow’s Hollow, things have been… off. Not just strange, but specific. Every single odd occurrence happens when I’m by myself. If my mom or my little brother are around, the house is as quiet as a tomb. […]

The Last Rake

The last time I saw my father alive, he was staring out the hospital window, his gnarled hands tracing patterns on the blanket. We thought he was just restless, but later the nurse told us he kept muttering about his fields, about the north quarter, about the raspberry canes. He died that same night, and […]

The Weaver of Hollow Threads

I never believed in the old stories about the Larkspur House, a creaking Victorian relic that had been converted into student lodgings. The place had a reputation, sure, but I chalked that up to the usual collegiate penchant for drama. My room was on the second floor, where the floors and walls were all dark, […]

The Fourth Visit

My friend Marcus has always been a little off. Not in a bad way, but in a way that makes you uneasy. He’s died three times, or so he says. Three separate occasions where his heart stopped, and each time he came back with something new. The first time, he started seeing flickers at the […]
