Blog & StoriesThe Silent Auction
Four months ago, my phone buzzed with Mom’s ringtone—a cheerful marimba that always made me smile. I answered, expecting her usual chatter about the garden or the neighbors’ new dog....
Ghost stories from Medium
The Weft of the Fraying Thread
The summer my cousin Alma fell into that hollow-eyed stillness, the air in our valley thickened like curdled milk. Every breath she took was a battle, her lungs whistling with...
The Leaf That Watched
The old farmhouse had always been a place of quiet unease for Lena. The air inside was thick with the musty scent of decaying wood and dried herbs, and the...
The Warden of Hollowgrove Manor
Every autumn, the Hollowgrove Historical Society threw open the doors of the town’s oldest residences for a single day of public exploration. I had circled the date on my calendar...
The Unquiet Soil
In the autumn of 2009, I found myself suffocating under the weight of a failed marriage and the ashes of a life I had once dreamed of. My name is...
The Seventh Cup
Every Friday evening, the five of us gathered at the Jade Kettle, a teahouse nestled in the old industrial district, its brick walls scarred with soot and time. We were...
The Salt Line
I never believed in the family curse, not really. Even after my uncle Angus died, sprawled on his tartan sofa with a half-finished game of dominoes scattered across the coffee...
The Yellow Room’s Glass Box
I had known Mira for nearly a decade, and in all that time, she had never once wavered in her conviction that the dead lingered, that the air around us...
The Porcelain Task
I’ve always been a skeptic, but my dreams have a way of blurring the line between sleep and waking. Last autumn, I moved to a small coastal town named Dredge...
The December Visitor
In the autumn of 1994, I was a junior at Aldergate University, a small campus nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. I had a close-knit group of...
The Gravel Road and the Rain
When I was seven, my aunt gave me a small, scruffy dog for my birthday. My mother, with a smile that didn’t reach her eyes, called him Biscuit. My father,...
The Cackling Pumpkin
My name is Willow, and I’ve always felt the presence of the unseen. It’s not a sixth sense or a curse; it’s just a fact of life, like the color...
The Fifth Step
I moved to the town of Greyhollow when I was twenty-six, nestled in the foothills of the Alleghenies. It was the kind of place where the forest pressed against the...
The Veiled Visitor
In the quiet town of Ashford, young Elias Turner lay in his narrow bed, the blankets pulled up to his chin. His room was a sanctuary of ordinary things—a wooden...
The Floor Above the Fridge
I had lived in that apartment for three years, and in all that time, the only thing that ever woke me at 3 AM was the old refrigerator’s compressor. But...
The Grease-Stained Ledger
My grandmother always said I had the ‘sight,’ but it wasn’t the kind that sees. It was a pressure, a static in the air, a metallic taste at the back...
The Hum of the Hollow
In the autumn of 2012, I joined a group of five colleagues for a weekend retreat to the remote town of Ashford, nestled in the foothills of the Cascade Range....
The Donut Stone Prophecy
In the autumn of 2013, I found myself drawn to the old donut-shaped crystal that had once belonged to my grandmother. It was a simple thing, a circle of smoky...
The Marrow of the Walls
My name is Elara, and I’ve just turned eighteen. We live in a creaking, salt-eaten house on the edge of a town that smells of fish and rust. My mother,...
The Lantern of the Chapel
When I was thirteen, I lived with my family in a small village nestled between dark pine forests and the edge of a cold lake. It was the kind of...
The Coal-Dust Sentinel
The Silver Vein Mine had been the heart of our small town for a century, but by the time I started working there, it was a skeleton of its former...
The Last Call at the Bluebird Diner
I had been driving through the Nevada desert for hours, the radio crackling with static between stations. Just outside of Tonopah, I picked up a broadcast of an old folksy...
The House on Meridian Lane
I never believed in signs. Not the kind you see in church or the ones your grandmother swears by. But that night, the universe was trying to tell us something,...
The Sunday Paper Prophecy
I never considered myself haunted, not in the way movies portray it. No cold spots, no flickering lights, no spectral apparitions in the hallway. But I’ve learned that my mind...
