If you were stranded on a deserted island, what would you bring? I'd suggest a gun.
Getting off at the ghost station of Gorgefall wasn't the only mistake the passengers made that night. Trusting one another proved far deadlier.
Vivian Rae, a crime podcaster chasing a missing persons lead, expected a story that could go viral. But when a violent winter storm left her and eleven other passengers stranded at Gorgefall, she realized she was no longer just chasing the story. She had become the story, and she might not survive to tell it.
The storm, the train station, and the strangers beside her didn't seem unusual at first. But once night fell on Gorgefall, she discovered that escape was never part of the journey.

ONE NIGHT IN THE CABIN HOUSE (Completed and NOW Edited!!...)
Garcia, Justine, Bateman, Lee, and Claire were driving through unfamiliar woods when, late in the evening, their car got a flat tire. Stranded and with night quickly falling, they decided to search for shelter until morning. After some time, they stumbled upon a deserted, run-down cabin deep in the forest. Exhausted, they chose to stay there, unaware that what they had just entered wasn't a refuge-but a dangerous trap waiting to unfold. *** "Or haunted," Bateman muttered, staring at the window. "What do you mean?" Claire asked. "Gracia was right," Bateman said, standing up. "I saw the shadow move just now." Lee sat up in surprise. Seconds later, a loud bang echoed through the tiny room as someone-or something-knocked on the door. ~#5 bestseller ~#1 dangerarghty ~#8 ghoststory ~#2 greatstories ~#4 horror thriller ~#17 fright ~#27 bestbookonwattpad ~#19 beststoryever ~#33 ghostbusters ~#19 darkforest Please vote if you enjoyed the story! 😊 I'm open to feedback and happy to make corrections.

The House That Whispers
It wasn't supposed to be a rescue. It wasn't even supposed to be real. A drunken dare. A reckless chase. A twisted game. Harry and his friends entered the house with one thought-to take what wasn't theirs. But the moment they crossed the threshold, the game turned against them. The doors locked. The walls shifted. Their desires became chains, their laughter swallowed by silence. At first, they thought it was a man-a monster lurking in the dark, toying with them. But the deeper they went, the more the truth clawed at their sanity. The house was alive. And it wanted them to suffer. Time unraveled. Lust turned to regret. Hunger turned to madness. Their mistakes tightened like a noose, and soon, Harry found himself losing more than just his way. He was losing them. And the house was still watching. Because no one leaves until it is done with them. The House That WhispersComplete

Haunted
The dead typically want one of two things. Ghosts crave conversation. Spirits seek pain. My name is Bria, and I've been able to interact with the dead for as long as I can remember. Communicating with the deceased might sound like a cool gift, but let me assure you, it's not. Ghosts don't shut up, and not all specters are friendly. In fact, most of them are dangerous. Pretending the paranormal doesn't exist is far easier than talking to the shadows, so I've been avoiding the dead for years. Past experiences have led me to avoid the living too. And for a long time, I've successfully kept my distance. Until a single ghost encounter in the library ruins everything. Now a couple of my classmates know my secret. But as it turns out, they have a deadly secret of their own. Time to talk to the shadows again. _______________ This story contains profanity and violence. [ONC 2021 Shortlister]Complete
