An Absent Love, An Angry Spouse, And A Murder
Just eight miles north of Decatur, Nebraska, lays a hill overlooking the Missouri River (located on an Omaha Indian Reservation). There lays a pile of dirt approximately 45 feet high which marks the burial site of several Omaha Chiefs, including Chief Blackbird. The Chief was buried in the year 1800 and in a way of sitting upright on his horse. The hill itself is said to be haunted but not by Chief Blackbird himself, but a young lady who was murdered.

Asia's Urban Legends
Hey Ghoul Lovers! When we talk about horror and Paranormal, we definitely get intrigued by the origins of the story or how Urban Legends came about like simply asking yourself "Who is the Bunny Man actually?". Be it "Grandmothers' tale" or just stories to scare children to sleep. What if i tell you, Urban Legends in Asia are still relevant to the current generation? Trust me, growing up, the influences of superstitions had always been brought down by my previous generations and i'm sure it follows till the end.

The Retreat
It was quiet on the retreat, so many hours of the day just dedicated to the craft of writing and creating wonderful memories along the way. We had rented the house on Airbnb so we had the place to ourselves. Just the seven of us. We each took turns cooking, and sharing stories along the way. Mornings were full of life and joy, and evenings full of laughter. But there was a secret we didn't know about this place. We should have guessed when we saw the name of the house on the website. "Grandma's House"

Top Five Scariest Mental Hospitals
Dark histories filled with brutality and mistreatment stain the earth of many mental hospitals throughout the United States. Misinformation coupled with corruption created a general misunderstanding of mental illness, and as a result, a misunderstanding of the proper procedures to administer care. Doctors and nurses subjected these mental health patients to heinous mistreatment, often times causing emotional, psychological, or physical damage far worse than what they were initially admitted for.

Starring Tom Cruise, Courtney B. Vance, Russell Crowe as Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and Sofia Boutella as Princess Ahmanet a.k.a. The Mummy.
