A Haunting New Year’s Eve Submitted by Penelope – It was New Year’s Eve when my family and I arrived at the Gunter Hotel in San Antonio. The street glowed with festive lights, like a living Christmas card. My phone camera couldn’t capture the magic – sometimes technology fails to show what our eyes see.…

Specter of the Warrior The moon hangs cold over the field, its light piercing the haze. Shadows play along the silent battlefield, where the fallen rest forever. The air tingles, a sign that something otherworldly stirs among the motionless figures on the ground. A phantom warrior, born of legend, quietly moves in the shadows. The…

The Mysterious Path A curious traveler steps into a wild forest. The trees are tall and thick, blocking out the sun. It's always twilight here. The traveler's boots crunch softly on fallen leaves as they walk carefully into this forgotten place. There's a whisper in the air, like nature is warning about what's ahead. The…

The Ancient Abbey In misty hills stands an old Abbey, grand and timeless. Its stone walls, worn by storms, reach to the sky. Shadows dance with the wind's whispers. Legends seem to float in the air, like the fog around the grounds. The Abbey's long history is as thick as the mist, each stone a…

Title: Forgotten King's Ruins Haunting As the sun set, a historian explored ancient ruins. The air grew heavy with tension. A chilling breeze made the world go quiet.

Harbor's Haunted Legacy An eerie harbor lies hidden in mist. Dim shapes of ships float on murky waters. It's dusk, and the fading light makes shadows longer across the docks. The air is thick with salt; each breath tastes of the sea and old secrets. People whisper about the harbor's dark past. They tell of…

Submitted by RetroRebel – I never experienced anything myself, but I believed my mum when she told us about that morning. She’s not the type to make things up—she’s practical, steady, the one who keeps everyone grounded. But that day, something was different. I remember watching her pace the kitchen, biting her nails, eyes flicking…

Submitted by CosmicToast – I just moved into this old rental on the Antietam battlefield, yup, that Antietam. My buddy owns the place, and it’s got all the charm you’d expect from a house sitting on top of a literal warzone: creaky floors, random cold spots, and an energy that just feels… off. First day…

Submitted by Jenny – Sometimes I’d be in the kitchen, trying to bake her famous apple pie, and I’d get this strong urge to double-check the cinnamon. It was like she was nudging me, reminding me not to forget her secret ingredient. Other times, I’d be in the garden, trying to make sense of her…

Submitted by NapKingCole Woke up feeling weird, you know that kind of day where you just feel off? Yeah, it was one of those. Heard it was Friday the 13th and thought, great, just my luck. I shrugged it off at first, figuring it was just another day, but there was this little nagging feeling…

One night in the military camp, I lay on my narrow bunk, staring at the ceiling. Suddenly, the energy felt different—like a chill up my spine. I brushed it off as tiredness. But then my socks vanished, not just from my footlocker, but from my feet. We'd wake up to find our stuff moved. At…

Submitted by Ama When I was a kid, my Cherokee grandma told us our apartment was haunted. My mom laughed it off, but I wasn’t so sure. I remember sitting in Granny’s dim living room, eyes wide, as she shared stories of old spirits in our home. Her soft voice drew me in. She’d tell…

Submitted by Robert I had a vacation planned with my friends, hiking a trail everyone loved. That morning, though, something inside me pulled me elsewhere. It was weird. I couldn’t ignore this urge to skip the trail and check out a hidden beach nearby. I’ve learned to trust my gut, even when it doesn’t make…

Submitted by Jane I first noticed my son’s imaginary friend one lazy afternoon. He was playing with his toys, chatting away. At first, I thought it was cute – kids often make up friends. But things got weird. He wasn’t just talking; he was answering questions. Pausing as if listening. He’d giggle or nod like…

Submitted by Matt As I sat in my car, trying to make sense of what just happened, I felt like I’d been plucked out of time for a second. Just as I was coming to terms with almost getting hit by that truck, I noticed something in my rearview mirror. There was this tiny car,…

Submitted by Emily It’s funny how dreams can stir up emotions you didn’t even know were there. In my vision, there were faces—so clear and distinct as if I could reach out and touch them. They were all gathered around, dressed in their Victorian finery, and there was this one woman in particular. She had…

A Regular Tuesday Turned Upside Down Submitted by JessJourneys – It was just another Tuesday morning. Nothing felt off, just my usual routine—grab coffee, check my phone, then out the door. I was rushing, juggling too much at once. At a red light, my phone buzzed. I glanced at it for a second. No big…

Imagine standing under the open sky…
