    Daniel woke on his second morning at the campsite convinced someone had planted a tree beside his tent overnight. It stood barely a metre from the entrance, its pale trunk marked with strange horizontal grooves. He mentioned it to his friends, but they laughed, insisting the tree had always been there. By the third morning, another tree had appeared, followed by several more arranged in a perfect circle around their campsite. Daniel began counting them every evening. There had been twelve when they arrived. Now there were twenty-seven, and the circle seemed noticeably smaller. His friends finally grew concerned when they discovered that the trees blocked the path leading back to their car. They tried cutting through the forest, but every direction brought them back to the clearing. That night, Daniel stayed awake, watching the trees through his tent's open flap. Just before dawn, he noticed something impossible: the trees weren't swaying in the wind. They were perfectly st...

   At a travelling fair, six university friends are approached by a charming young man named Hyde, who offers them a cash prize to play hide and seek. After three minutes to hide, Hyde begins searching while another man moves unnoticed among the attractions in search of friends. One of the friends, Daniel, is found behind a ticket booth and told to wait near the entrance. Minutes later, Daniel’s girlfriend sees Hyde beside the carousel, even though Daniel insists Hyde has already found him. Before she can question the contradiction, Daniel disappears. When she confronts Hyde, he claims he has never met Daniel. The friends abandon the game and call the police. The investigation takes a disturbing turn when witnesses insist they saw Hyde in different places at exactly the same time. Security footage appears to confirm their accounts, showing the same man near the Ferris wheel, the main entrance and a maintenance building at 10:16 p.m. The police suspect technical errors until Da...

    What began as a friendly neighbourhood garden competition quickly turned into a bitter battle for the title of Best Garden on the Block. Every morning, neighbours rushed outside to water their flowers, trim their hedges, and show off their newest plants. But as the competition intensified, so did their jealousy. One neighbour introduced mint that spread uncontrollably through the surrounding gardens, while another planted bamboo that crept beneath fences and cracked garden paths. Soon, the once peaceful neighbourhood was divided into rival camps, with accusations of sabotage flying between houses. Determined to win at any cost, some residents began growing dangerous ornamental plants, including deadly nightshade and oleander, caring more about intimidating their rivals than the safety of their community. Within weeks, the consequences became impossible to ignore. Several neighbors fell seriously ill, and rumors spread that the gardens were responsible. The competition was ...

   It was almost midnight when Daniel heard a baby crying somewhere outside his apartment. At first, he ignored it. Then he remembered the only rule written in the building’s welcome booklet: “If you hear a baby crying at night, do not go outside.” Nobody had ever explained why. Curious but frightened, Daniel walked to his door and looked through the peephole. The hallway was empty. He waited. Nothing. Then the crying started again, much closer. A small figure slowly appeared at the end of the hallway. It looked like a baby, but something was terribly wrong with it. Its arms were too long, its head tilted unnaturally to one side, and it crawled toward Daniel’s door while crying like an infant. Daniel stepped away from the peephole. Suddenly, his next door neighbor opened his door. The creature stopped crying. There was a loud struggle, followed by a scream then silence. Daniel stayed frozen inside his apartment until morning. When the residents finally came outside, they found...

 Three men arrived in the village wearing black cloth over their eyes, claiming they had been blinded by a strange illness. They lived together in an abandoned farmhouse and became known as the Three Blind Mice, always moving in perfect coordination despite their blindness. At night, villagers heard them whispering the same nursery rhyme over and over. “Three blind mice, three blind mice, See how they run! See how they run! They all ran after the farmer’s wife, Who cut off their tails with a carving knife. Did you ever see such a thing in your life, As three blind mice?” One evening, the farmer’s wife discovered the three men inside her barn, standing around her missing daughter’s bloodied dress. Terrified, she grabbed a carving knife and attacked the first man when he lunged at her, cutting deeply into his side. The other two chased her through the fields, laughing as they shouted, “See how she runs!” By sunrise, the villagers found the farmer’s wife hanging from the farmhouse doo...

  At 2:47 a.m., the whistle came again, but this time James was ready. He stood in the hallway with Liam beside him, both holding heavy wooden bats. At the end of the corridor stood the suited man, perfectly still, his black eyes fixed on them. “You really think you can fight me?” He whispered. James looked at Liam and nodded. Liam suddenly threw a glass against the wall, making the man turn his head for a split second. James charged. The bat slammed into the man's shoulder, sending him crashing against the wall. Liam immediately struck him across the back. The suited man screamed not like a human, but like several voices shouting at once. For the first time, the terrifying figure looked afraid. They attacked him together. James struck his legs while Liam hit his arms, forcing him to the floor. Every time one of them blinked, the man tried to disappear, but the other kept attacking. “Don't let him stand up!” James shouted. The suited man crawled toward the darkness at the end o...

  A man woke up beneath an old underpass with no memory of how he got there. The only thing he remembered was a childhood promise: whenever life became difficult, he and his three best friends would meet there and talk about it. To his surprise, his friends were already waiting for him. They looked exactly as he remembered them, but something felt wrong. None of them had aged. When he asked why they were still there after all these years, one friend simply replied, “Because you never came back.” The man suddenly remembered a terrible car accident and began screaming. He woke briefly in a hospital bed, surrounded by doctors. He had been in a coma for six years. His friends had died in the crash, and he was the only survivor. But when his eyes closed again, he was back beneath the underpass and this time, his friends were standing behind him.

When he watches the recording the next morning, his heart stops. The old lady is not sitting in the back seat. The camera shows him talking and laughing alone for almost forty minutes.

   A woman renting out her luxury apartment discovers a guest dead in bed after checkout. Police determine that he died naturally. Several months later, another guest dies in exactly the same room. Again, there is no obvious evidence of murder. The landlord begins reviewing the apartment’s history and notices that every victim stayed in the same bedroom. She installs hidden cameras before the next booking. During the night, the camera records something impossible: the bedroom door slowly opening even though the electronic lock says it never opened. A shadow enters the room, stays for several minutes, and leaves. The police eventually discover a concealed access panel behind the wardrobe leading into the building’s ventilation system. Someone has been secretly entering the apartment between bookings. But the killer isn’t targeting random guests. Each victim had previously been involved in a different crime that was never solved. The Airbnb is being used as a private execution c...

 Saint Lin Catholic Boys School sits between the shoe factory and the old cemetery. Just like any other boys' school, Saint Lin has its fair share of mischievous, delinquent and brilliant students. The school has been around for nearly thirteen decades and is known for strict standards and deeply rooted Catholic teachings and traditions. Just like every other school, Saint Lin has quite a handful of lores that go beyond the grounds of the school, but the most renowned one amongst them all is the Wayward Triplets. No original background story is known about the trio, but first sightings dated back to the early years of the school. According to former students, teachers and Catholic priests, the triplets were former students of the school who mysteriously disappeared. Despite their bodies never being found, and no family members ever showing up, the institute held a mass for them. Strange enough, teachers and stationed priests during that period had no recollection of accepting enrol...

  The jackrabbit was a real asshole. Everyone in the forest knew it. He bragged constantly about being the fastest animal alive. And unfortunately, nobody could really argue with him. Every race ended the same way: the jackrabbit crossed the finish line first while everyone else arrived behind him, exhausted and humiliated. But winning wasn't enough for him. He wanted everyone to know he had won. Every few days, he'd challenge someone new to a race not because he had anything to prove, but because he enjoyed rubbing it in. Then one day, the box turtle finally got tired of listening. "Why not? I'll race you" The    turtle said. The jackrabbit stared at him. Then he burst out laughing. "Seriously? You want to race me?" He said. The turtle nodded. The jackrabbit grinned. "Alright. Let's go." The race began and the jackrabbit disappeared down the path, leaving the box turtle crawling slowly through a cloud of dust. It wasn't even close. Of ...
