The Rabbit Girl and the Swamp Princess
Once upon a time, a young girl lived near the edge of the woods with her family raising rabbits. The forest was dark and evil, her father told her, and she was forbidden from wandering there. “Only wicked things live in the woods,” he would say. “Witches, monsters, and freaks make their home there. Beware!” But the only things she would see there were squirrels, birds, and the occasional hawk which she’d have to keep an eye on, for it liked rabbits. For her, the forest was peaceful and full of surprises, the perfect place to daydream, which she would do often.

The Mirror
The mirror had been there since before Ashley could remember. It stood in the hallway outside her bedroom — tall, dark-framed, slightly taller than it should have been for the wall it occupied. She had never questioned it. That was the thing about the mirror. It simply was, the way the floorboards were, the way the morning light fell crooked through the kitchen window. Unremarkable. Permanent.

The Silent Room (Chapter One: The House That Breathes)
No one noticed the house at the end of Blackwood Lane until it decided to be noticed. For years, it stood there in perfect stillness, its windows dark, its gates rusted shut. People passed it every day and forgot it the moment it slipped out of sight. That was the rule of the house: if it did not want to be remembered, it wasn’t.

Destination: Nowhere — The Digital Myth of Kisaragi Station
The Silent Commute It began as an ordinary night for a woman known only by her online alias, "Hasumi." She was on her usual commute home on a private railway in Shizuoka, Japan. But as the minutes ticked by, the rhythm of the tracks felt… wrong. The train, which usually stopped every five minutes, had been running for over twenty without a single pause.

For the faint of heart, beware! Hong Kong Fox Spirit Murder Incident
Today, I'm going to talk about the sensational fox spirit murder case that rocked Hong Kong in 1981. During that time, everyone in Hong Kong, from tea restaurants to office buildings, from taxi drivers to neighbors, was talking about this case. At night, when they turned off the lights to sleep, they had to keep a close eye on their children's cribs, afraid that something strange might come knocking at their door. This case was not groundless. The level of strangeness from start to finish was even more terrifying than the fox spirit stories in "Liaozhai".

THE MIRROR THAT LEARNED MY NAME. Content Warning. AI-Generated.
I covered the mirror because it wouldn’t stop smiling. At first, I thought it was just exhaustion. Night shifts mess with your head, especially when you live alone. Faces blur. Reflections lag. You see things that aren’t there.

The Neighbor Who Didn’t Exist. AI-Generated.
I live alone on the seventh floor of an old apartment building, where the wooden floors creak and the elevator hums in a familiar rhythm. In the mornings, sunlight filters through the dusty curtains, casting thin streaks across the floor. At night, the hallway lights spill pale, wavering light through the cracks in my door. At first, I felt peaceful.
