    I was thirteen when I first realized that life is more than what the eyes can see. A hand hovering in my room. A relative walking across a pond long after she died. Bluish lights dancing silently at night. Whispers calling me home. Some things exist only for those who are meant to see. Some truths are buried between this world and the next. Will you dare to look?

    Ash Creek: Stories the Woods Refused to Forget Some places remember. Ash Creek is one of them. Tucked away among forgotten backroads and shadowed pines, Ash Creek is a small town where old promises linger, abandoned churches keep their silence, and the woods have a way of returning what people thought was buried forever. These are stories of ordinary people haunted less by ghosts than by memory, guilt, kindness, and the truths that refuse to stay hidden. Here, every weathered porch has a story, every lonely road leads toward a reckoning, and every first frost reminds the living that the past is never as far away as they would like to believe. Blending American Gothic, folk horror, and quiet rural mystery, Ash Creek: Stories the Woods Refused to Forget is a collection of interconnected tales where each story stands on its own, yet every path eventually leads back to the same town-a place where mercy is hard won, silence has consequences, and the woods never forget.

    In 1958 Singapore, in a kampung house festering with jinns, five-year-old Safiyyah only sees "friends". But one night, her father's muffled screams echo from beneath the floorboards. Then comes a bestial growl from the shadows saying that it can save him if she sings a special song. Desperate to save her father, Safiyyah agrees. When an innocent child obeys without understanding the cost, it awakens an ancient guardian and its power that should have remained sealed. Another presence in the house stirs - one pretending to be human. Melati believes she is among the living, but the guardian remembers otherwise. It knows what Melati was before she "lived". Guardians don't always guard. And this one doesn't want to leave. (Multi-POVs) Ideation: 2020 Drafts: 2020 - 2025 Published Date: 01 April 2026 Status: Ongoing Copyright © 2026. All rights reserved.

    A complete list of short stories from my Ilvermorny book and new ones, as well as extended versions. As dusk settles over the ancient grounds of Ilvermorny, a chilling mist unfurls, enveloping the castle in an ethereal shroud. Whispering winds carry enigmatic murmurs through the halls, ensuring a haunting welcome to all who venture into its storied depths. These stories and more capture the imaginations of students and staff, adding to Ilvermorny's rich tapestry of history and mystery. Beyond these well-known tales, whispers of other spectral encounters flutter through the halls, eluding capture in both memory and script. These lingering legends promise untold ghostly adventures, urging all who set foot within Ilvermorny's enchanted grounds to listen closely and perhaps even contribute new tales to its ever-growing collection. The invitation is open: for those with imagination, the magical world is ready to reveal its secrets, inviting you to share in its eternal mystery.

    Every family has stories and secrets. Delicious family lore that you get access to once you grow up. But what if that lore contained encounters with the paranormal? Not just encounters but where their world mixed with ours, spoken of in the same tone as your mom discussing a common family affair over tea. This is a collection of real and remembered tales - stories passed down by elders, dreamt during restless nights, and sometimes lived in unsettling silence. These are the moments where the veil between our world and the unseen thinned - where the unexplained slipped through the cracks of ordinary life. From the heart of a South Asian household comes a personal archive of eerie encounters, family legends, and things we never dared write down... until now. Come, sit with us. The lights are out, the night is still, and the stories are waiting.

    Not everything I've seen in my life can be explained. When I was a child, I believed ghosts only lived in stories and movies - until I started meeting them myself. These are not tales meant to scare for fun. They are memories that never faded, moments that still follow me whenever the night grows quiet. I don't know why I could see what others couldn't. Maybe fear opened a door that should've stayed closed. But once that door opened... it never truly shut again. These are the echoes that still whisper to me - the Echoes of the Unseen.

    This is a real-life experience involving my friend, Juliet, who sadly passed away five years ago. What makes it even more surreal is that I had no idea she was gone until last Christmas. All these years, we had continued communicating on WhatsApp; or so I thought. I had no reason to suspect anything was wrong. It wasn't until that Christmas that I discovered the heartbreaking truth: Juliet had passed on, and I had been unaware all this time.

    It was around 3 AM when I woke up. The lights were out, but I saw a faint figure on Deniz's bed. I tiptoed to her bed and lightly tapped her shoulder. She instantly woke up when I touched her. I told her that I had a childish fear of being alone in the dark, and I needed to go to the restroom at the end of the hall. I'm pretty sure she smiled.
