The Ice Cream Castle by AinyRainwater
5 parts Complete
A Christmas ghost story. Ghosts are usually associate with old places which have a lot of history, but a building doesn't have to be ancient to have the kind of history that might involve a ghost. This story was originally posted on my blog as a single piece. Because it's a very long story (nearly 10,000 words), I've broken it into 5 parts for Wattpad readers. The narrative moves back and forth between the present and the past, so most of the chapter breaks follow natural breaks in the text. I'm posting the parts on 5 consecutive days. Enjoy!

This story talks about a girl who is not loved by anyone around her but her grandfather. But once he dies she is finally left completely alone to fend for herself.... I wrote this story for a Halloween short story but it turned into something much longer and more heart felt than I had thought it would become... please comment what you like and what corrections are needed.

#SurvivalRomance #ForcedProximity #Fast-paced BOUGHT BY WATTPAD WEBTOON STUDIOS FOR PUBLISHING/MOVIE DEALS!!! (Contract expired September, 2025) Winner of the Wattys 2020 Award in Horror/English "This book really hooks you with its intriguing premise. A super fun horror story rooted in Filipino Folklore, with a science thriller twist - think Jurassic Park meets It Follows." -----What the Wattys2020 Team said about Haunteds, Wattys2020 Winner in Horror category Plot: In 1974, the mysterious cult's mass kidnapping and ritualistic killing led to the summoning of the Shade-a paranormal entity of living shadow. Ever since then, starting in October in Bastillio-a city in the Philippines steeped in history and superstition-the Shade would be seen haunting twelve teenagers at night throughout the month, often resulting in their deaths. But the discovery of U.V. lights as a deterrent from the Shade led the government to establish a system to contain the Shade's threat. Fast forward to 2025, twenty years after the system had successfully prevented any more deaths, the media and global firestorm surrounding the phenomenon died down. So when sixteen-year-old Vergil Torres was identified as one of the twelve and was immediately brought to Biringan-the government shelter where haunteds like him would stay for the month-he was more excited than scared for his life. But the gruesome and inexplicable death of one of them during their stay in the supposedly safe house renews the horror of the Shade. Vergil, together with his classmate and fellow haunted, the "traditional morena beauty" Cana Bernardo, decided to get to the bottom of it. The two classmates who were indifferent to each other must now work together if they are to survive through the month.
