Short HORROR Stories

4am

When i was in my second year of college in India. I stayed at an all girls hostel.the hostel was a lot of fun but it was a very very old building and there was barely any electricity. Sometimes we would put candles along the windows, but once you left your room, you were faced with complete darkness. It was common to wake someone up to come with you to the bathroom as we all had a childish fear of being alone in the dark. One time i had to use the restroom, and it was about 4 am. I went to my friends bed and tapped her arm. She immediately opened her eyes as soon as I touched her. I told her I needed to pee. She smiled and hopped out of bed. All the way down the hallway, she laughed and danced. I could not see her at all but her bangles clanked together loudly and the bells on her ankles jingled softly. It was almost calming. I laughed and sashayed my hips down the hallway with her. She said nothing to me, though i would occasionally hear her hum one of our favourite Bollywood songs. The same thing happened on our way back. I fell asleep easily.

I woke up fairly late the next morning to the sound of men in our room. They surrounded her bed. I bolted up, prepared to protect my friend. Until I realised they were administrators of our college. I peered over. My friends lifeless eyes fixed on my bed, with the same smile on her face. Suicide

The time of death was 11pm. Almost 5 hours before i woke her up.
