Shadows of the Asylum by ChristianBishop8
22 parts Complete
In the heart of a forgotten town stands Ravenshade Hospital, a long-abandoned institution shrouded in dark legend. Its crumbling walls and broken windows hide more than just decay-they hold the restless spirits of those who died within, their tormented souls never able to escape. Over the years, countless groups of curious teens have ventured inside, drawn by the hospital's eerie reputation, but none have ever returned. Whispers tell of strange sounds in the halls, flickering lights, and shadowy figures that stalk the living. One fateful night, a group of teens, eager for thrills, dares to enter Ravenshade. They explore its haunted corridors, their laughter quickly turning to fear as the building seems to come alive around them. One by one, they vanish, as if swallowed by the very walls. Only Lily, a terrified but determined teen, manages to flee. She stumbles out into the cold night, heart pounding, and makes her way to the nearest airport, desperate to escape the nightmare that haunts her. Lily boards a plane, believing she has outrun the terror of Ravenshade. But as the plane soars into the night sky, the weight of what she has witnessed takes its toll. Exhausted and broken, Lily drifts into a deep sleep, her body finally succumbing to the horrors she's endured. She dies quietly in her seat, the flight attendants unaware of the tragedy until it's too late. Though Lily is the only one to escape Ravenshade, she is not truly free. The hospital's curse followed her, and in the end, it claimed her life as well, leaving behind only the chilling reminder that some places are never meant to be left behind.

15 parts Ongoing
Two girls, chasing their dreams, find themselves caught in a web of secrets tied to a forbidden past. But as their bond is tested by time, love, and betrayal, the unshakable friendship they once shared begins to crumble. "I love you! Because of you, I laughed a little harder, cried a little less, and smiled a little more." "I love you too! I just want you-your flaws, mistakes, smiles, and everything about you." But the love that once brought them together begins to fade. "You're not the same Bella. You're not the Bella I loved." "That's nonsense! I'm the same Bella you always loved! What's gotten into you?" "I know my Bella. I could recognize her by the freckle on her skin. But you're not her." Heartbreak sets in: "Don't you love me anymore?" she asks, as tears streak her face. But trust has been shattered. Tempers flare, and dark truths emerge: "Say it once again?" "I HATE YOU, LILY! I hate every single damn action you take! You think you're a leader? You're just a loser. All this mess is because of you! Why didn't you die that night instead of them?" As the tension escalates, a new conflict arises: "Harry just asked me out for the college prom," Lily says. "Then say no. It's simple," Bella snaps. "What's wrong with you, Bella? I like him, and I'm saying yes!" "There you go again, deciding things by yourself. Just like that night when you acted on your own and called a cursed child." With love on one side and loyalty on the other, Lily must navigate heartbreak, misunderstandings, and regret. Meanwhile, the mystery of their shared past looms larger, threatening to unravel everything. Can their friendship survive the trials of love, loss, and betrayal? Will the truth set them free-or destroy them completely?

I Can See Their Death

16 parts Complete

In the depths of her childhood, at the tender age of 7, an unsettling gift awakened within her - the power to glimpse the impending demise of others. Ghosts and ethereal apparitions became her companions, while the looming specter of death itself held an unyielding presence in her life. Anleane possessed an eerie talent; her visions never faltered, always revealing the cruel inevitability of mortality. Even those closest to her weren't spared. Hauntingly, she foresaw her own mother's fate, the grim prophecy manifesting just days before its fulfillment. A chilling truth gripped Anleane's reality: those she glimpsed in her visions were bound to the realm beyond. There was no escape from the dance of death that she alone witnessed. And then, the inexplicable occurred - her own figure materialized within the confines of her ominous predictions. Confronted with the realization of her impending doom, Anleane's fight for survival intensified, a desperate attempt to defy the very destiny she once foretold. Amidst the relentless shadows of her cursed ability, Anleane grapples with a question that consumes her every thought: Can she, against all odds, outwit the clutches of the inescapable, or will she become yet another victim to the merciless hands of fate?
