It began with a pen.
Not cursed. Not haunted.
Worse-aware.

Every word it writes becomes a death scene. Every sentence, a sentence. Those who read it suffer fates twisted to match its ink-unless they destroy their sight within two minutes. The rules are strict... until they begin to change.

Now the pen writes while the wielder sleeps. Stories appear from nowhere. People die in ways that defy reason, and soon the deaths are no longer isolated-they're thematic. Connected. Narrated.

When other cursed objects surface, each with their own narrative laws, a horrifying truth comes to light: these aren't artifacts. They are competing authors.

And reality is their draft.

As the writer slips deeper into obsession, a secret agency scrambles to contain what cannot be explained, and a resistance fights to rewrite the story from inside the fiction. But the pen has one last tale to tell...

And the final sentence has already been written.

The Beautiful Trapped Ghost (BWWM) by KassandraVivu
33 parts Complete Mature
Liam left everything that he knew behind, his house, the neighborhood he lived in, and the city that he knew. Why? Because he needed a change. He needed a fresh start; he couldn't handle the gossips anymore, the neighbors whispering behind his back, the failed relationship that ended with a heartache for him and not his ex. He needed to be in a new area where no one knew what happened; no one knew the suffering he went through. So what does Liam do? He packs his things, sells his house, old furniture, and buys a new home in an area he's never even been in or heard of. Everything should go perfectly, right? This fresh start. Not quite, Liam has an unwanted guest in his new house, and this guest doesn't want to leave; she seems to be telling him that it's her house and not his. She's mistaken; this house was Liams. After all, he's purchased it for an excellent price and has moved all his new things in there. She's the one that needs to go, not him. So why is it that Liam is unable to kick her out of his home? Why is it that she won't leave?! or is it that she can't go. Strange things start to occur in Liam's new home, something that shouldn't be happening, spooky things, things that would happen in horror movies, and Liam doesn't know what to do. He starts to panic; he's the only one panicking; the unwanted guest, on the other hand, just stares at him with a smile as she throws her head back, letting out a chilling laugh. "We'll see who ends up leaving, because I am not going anywhere." She says.

She wakes up in a stranger's bed, a diamond ring glimmering on her finger - a symbol of promises she cannot remember - a vow forged in a past that's been stolen from her. Everyone says she's fortunate. That she's blessed. That a beautiful home, a devoted fiancé, and a spotless future await her. But when her pulse falters under his gentle touch... when her skin shivers instead of warming - something deep within resonates with the alarming feeling that something is profoundly, dangerously wrong. He insists it's for her own safety - that something awful happened, that healing simply takes time - but there's a fire in his eyes, a possessiveness he cannot mask. And somewhere in her mind, a locked box rattles against its chains. And at night, in the quiet... she dreams of another man she does not recognize. Until one day he steps out of the shadows. Not with flowers, but with fire, with danger, with a confession forged in the pure agony of a love forgotten. Not with comfort, but with a storm in his eyes and a voice that trembles when he says- "You promised to remember me," he whispers. "Even if the whole world made you forget." He is not kind. He is not patient. His love is wild - a consuming force - a sin that feels more elemental than redemption. The moment he reaches for her, the carefully woven lie starts to unravel, thread by thread, until the awful, beautiful truth emerges. She doesn't know his name. But her soul does. Now, stranded between two men - the man who offers refuge within a perfect illusion and the man who holds the key to a catastrophic reality - she must make a choice. To stay safely oblivious... or to break free and remember the life that was stolen from her. Because someone made sure she forgot. And they'll do whatever it takes to keep it that way. Some truths are dangerous - and some memories are worth everything.

Eight friends. One cursed game. No way out. After their final college exams, a group of friends travel to Kolkata to unwind in an old, abandoned mansion belonging to Lavanya's late grandfather. Hidden behind locked doors and layers of dust, they stumble upon a mysterious game-ancient, cryptic, and bound by chilling rules. What begins as a thrill quickly turns into a nightmare. Each round plays with their minds. Each move reveals a secret meant to stay buried. And the game? It's alive... watching, waiting, punishing. Now, the only way to survive is to keep playing. But in a game where the stakes are life and death-who will make it to the end?
