2024-10-29 19:42:56"What, you saw a ghost again?" Sebastian made a strange sound, making the two of them immediately the focus of the cabin.
Garvin gave him a slight kick. "Shh, keep your voice down!"
"Garvin, do you want to break my leg?" Sebastian grinned while holding his right leg that was so painful from his kick. "Any harder, and I would have ended up with broken bones."
When everyone saw that the actions of the two, they thought the two were joking, so they went about their own business.
Garvin breathed a sigh of relief and said with a sad face: "Really, just now I saw a woman in white clothes and long hair floating next to the fisherman. Her eyes....something scary about them, but she disappeared in the blink of an eye."
"Are you sure that's what you saw? Maybe you see it wrong?" Sebastian looked back at the fisherman, who happily continued to chat with the stewardess, but this time he changed the topic.
The tale the fisherman was boasting about now was when he caught a big shark while out on a small fishing boat. He said it was a spectacular scene.
Garvin held his head in pain and lamented in a low voice: "I thought the same way when I encountered this kind of situations, but after several times now, I have begun to doubt my view of the world view, life and values. The worst thing is Yes, the situation seems to be getting more and more serious now. In the past, I only encounter these kinds of strange things in the hospital, but now I can’t even take a boat without seeing them, what should I do?"
Sebastian didn't say anything, but stretched out his hand and put it against Garvin's forehead. The purpose was very obvious, he wanted to test whether he had a fever or not.
"I don't have a fever!" Garvin quickly avoided his hand. "I'm fine."
"That's just strange, very strange." Sebastian concluded. "What could be wrong with you then?"
"You don't believe what I say?" Garvin was very angry.
"What do you think?" Sebastian was not afraid of his anger and did not forget to give him a look.
"If you don't believe me, then there's no reason for me to tell you anything!" Garvin decided not to narrate anything to his friend anymore, but at this moment, the turbulent waves in his brain could not calm down. What he was mulling over and over in his mind were all the experiences he had had in recent times.
The first time he encountered something incredible was more than half a year ago. At that time, although his life was not a comfortable one, and his work was quite hard, at least it was still running on a normal track: he had a stable job. He was working as a doctor at the First Affiliated Hospital of Medical University. What more, he had a stable place of residence - although it was just a staff dormitory provided by the First Affiliated Hospital of Providence Medical University, and a stable relationship with his girlfriend. At least he thought it was stable.
However, on a dark and stormy night, when he was working the night shift in the respiratory medicine department of that hospital, something strange happened without warning.
That night, three inpatients came to the respiratory medical department where he was on duty. He was busy until three o'clock in the middle of the night before dragging his exhausted body back to the duty room at the bottom of the ground floor to rest.
Strangely enough, the moment he took the key to open the door to the duty room, he suddenly remembered the stories he had heard about the haunting of this department. It was said that many doctors who had been on duty on this floor before had heard footsteps coming and going from the door of the duty room, in the middle of the night.
Sometimes they heard the sound of someone twisting the door handle of the duty room. At first, everyone thought it was a patient or family member who couldn't sleep taking a walk, or someone. He was playing a prank, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
Until late one night, a doctor on duty who had poor sleep quality couldn't bear the noise that disturbed his sleep. He ran out of bed and suddenly opened the door of the duty room, only to see that there was no one at the door. As soon as he closed the door, the footsteps sounded again, and he opened the door again, but there was still no one. As soon as he closed the door, the footsteps came again, accompanied by the sound of the door handle being turned...
This strange phenomenon happened again and again until it was getting dark, and it completely disappeared. It was said that since then, the doctor would rather resign than be rotated to this department again.
This was not the first time that Garvin worked the night shift in the Department of Respiratory Medicine, but he had never heard the legendary strange footsteps or the sound of doorknobs turning, so he had forgotten all about this story. But for some reason, it happened one day.
That night he suddenly remembered it and felt a chill down his spine. He quickly opened the door to the duty room, walked in, and locked it forcefully. Urged by the fatigue caused by the previous hectic work, he quickly got himself into bed. But not long after laying down, while half asleep, he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps, followed by the sound of someone twisting the door handle back and forth, as if someone was twisting the locked door hard and trying to get in.
Could it be that the nurse came to him with something urgent? But he knew that could not right. Generally, when the nurse on duty wanted to find the doctor on duty, and then she would notify him directly via the phone number in the duty room.
It couldn't be that some patient or accompanying family member was insomnia and bored and was playing a prank, could it? In a daze, Garvin wanted to turn over to see what was going on, but strangely, his body was surprisingly heavy and he couldn't move his hands or feet.
Then, there was a loud bang.

At this time, someone finally successfully opened the door and walked in.Garvin was still in a half-asleep and half-awake state, unable to move. Despite this, he was still clearly aware that there was someone standing in front of the bed, and she was a young woman! The reason why he realized rather than saw it was because he knew that his eyes were still closed at that time. Hence, he couldn't realize the woman's true face. He only felt that she was a blur, like a pale light suspended in the darkness.The woman first stood there for a moment in front of the bed where he was lying, as if she was thinking about something with her head down. Then she stretched out her hand, pushed Garvin's heavy body hard, and screamed in a heavy and sad voice. "Go away, this is my bed!"After saying that, she lay down straight on the bed.Garvin suddenly felt a cold air coming towards him, covering his whole body in an instant, so he immediately became frightened, his eyes widened, but he finally broke

After experiencing this incident, Garvin had a lot of talk with the hospital leaders and found various reasons before he was transferred from the Department of Respiratory Medicine to a rotation in the Department of Surgery. He thought everything would be fine, but less than a month after the period of peace, something strange happened again one night when he was working the night shift.The surgeons at the First Affiliated Hospital of Providence City were different from the physicians when they were on duty. Instead of one doctor being on duty alone, an entire medical team was on duty together, because this was conducive to rapid emergency surgery during the night shift.Not only that, the hospital's surgical strength had always been strong and there were many doctors. Therefore, the entire major surgery department had two medical teams on duty at the same time at night. Each medical team had three or four doctors with different professional titles and one or two interns.It was pre

When things got to this point, Garvin finally made up his mind and decided to abandon his previous atheism. He went to a the Shaman shrine on the outskirts of Oklahoma that he had never been to before. He underwent a string of rituals that were said to have sandalwood bracelet with miraculous effect to escape evil spirits.But on the night he got the bracelet, he saw the figure of a middle-aged woman floating in the air at the door of the emergency room of the emergency department where he was newly transferred (accurately, he was kicked out).This woman's body had just been taken to the hospital morgue on a cart by a nurse. The cause of her death was suicide by hanging, and the reason for her suicide was that her husband, a contractor, had a mistress and wanted to divorce her.But her death was so worthless, because her body was still on the way to the morgue, and her husband, the contractor, was already standing at the door of the emergency room, happily calling the mistress on his

At the same time, she did not forget to throw back to him the gold ring he had given her, and showed him that she was now wearing a better one on her hand.

The Haunted Island A Mental Problem?
"Are you seasick again?" Sebastian, who had been taking pictures of the island, finally noticed something strange about Garvin and came over to ask."No," Garvin took a deep breath, looked into his friend's eyes anxiously, and said, "Do you still remember the nightmare I told you?""The one about the ghost island? Yes, I remember. What's it about?" When Sebastian answered. He seemed to suddenly realize something, and suddenly frowned. He looked back at Block Island, which was very close at hand, then glanced at Garvin. "Are telling me this is the island you dreamed about?""Garvin nodded solemnly.Sebastian thought for a while, then laughed: "So this is where your nightmare came from, and you made such a fuss...""But I've never been here before, and I don't know what this island looks like!" Garvin immediately interrupted him and pointed his finger at the gloomy island in front of him, "But now it appears. The island in my dream is exactly the same as this one.”Sebastian, holding hi
The Haunted Island Arriving On The Block Island
Around fifteen minutes later, the ferry trip eventually came to an end. Garvin, who had been miserable throughout the journey, finally set foot on Block Island with Sebastian.After arriving on the island, he had thought he would hear a voice that kept calling his name, sadly, like in his dream, but after seeing that everything was normal, and the island had a beautiful environment and fresh air, he gradually became more and more relaxed about everything."Hey Garvin, this way, this way." As soon as the two of them dragged their suitcases out of the dock gate, they heard a clear and gentle voice.Garvin turned his head and saw his cousin Lindsey, who had made an appointment on the phone yesterday to pick them up at the pier, waving to them not far away."Wow, what a beautiful girl." When Sebastian saw Lindsey, he was like a weasel seeing a chicken. His eyes were glowing brightly. "Garvin, I didn't know you have such a lovely angel in your family."Garvin immediately threatened in a lo
The Haunted Island The Old Scavenger
That day was the first time Garvin met his legendary grandmother.Needless to say, for Garvin's mother, her mother from Block Island was definitely not someone who could make her happy.Grandma was also very self-aware, so she had not come to visit her daughter in all these years. (This period included the two key moments of his parents' marriage and Garvin's own birth). When she now came, it was because she was desperate. In order to treat grandfather, she urgently needed to collect a large amount of money.That day, the kind-hearted father finally ignored his mother's objections and went to the bank to withdraw money for his wife's father. He also bought fruit and nutritional supplements and took Garvin with him to the First Affiliated People's Hospital of Providence City to visit him because of congenital heart disease. Grandfather was hospitalized there while waiting for surgery.Well, since he was a child, even if Garvin could understand his mother's eagerness to get rid of the r
The Haunted Island We See You, Garvin
About twenty minutes later, the taxi turned out of the town center and came to a long road built along the coast. Unlike the bluestone or cobblestone streets in the center of the town, this coastal road was paved with cement, like a thick gray snake, and winded all the way to the promontory in front.On the outside of the coastal road was the undulating blue coast, and below it were patches of messy black reef beaches and the ebb and flow of the blue-gray sea. On the inside was a rolling hillside, with residential houses surrounded by dense woods. They were sparsely scattered throughout the hillside under the cover of the sky.Originally, this small town felt deserted, but when they arrived here it was extremely quiet, with only a few pitiful figures walking near and far along the roads."Here we are, just ahead." Under Lindsey's guidance, the taxi parked in front of a row of dense bushes on the roadside. There was a cobblestone-paved mountain path less than ten meters long in the for

What Happened To My Mother? [II]
Garvin repeated his question again, fearing that his grandmother might get suspicious, and added, "Since I came back here, I keep thinking about my mother. I really want to know something about her past."Seeing Yvonne trying to walk upstairs with a cane, Garvin immediately ran over to help her. Holding his grandson's arm, Yvonne sighed and said with a sense of loss: "When your mother was young, the only thing that made her sad was probably that her father died too early.""How did grandpa die?" Garvin asked again."Why, didn't your mother mention it to you?" Yvonne glanced at him strangely and asked."She just said that he seemed to have died of some illness." What Garvin had always found difficult to understand was that his mother always said that she and his father had a good relationship, but she rarely mentioned his father in front of her husband and son. Even when she paid tribute to him during the annual festivals, she always remained sad but silent.Upon hearing this, Yvonne's

What Happened To My Mother? [I]
Since his mother passed away due to illness two years ago, Garvin had imagined many times that he could see her again. Now God finally heard his voice and made his wish come true with such a thrilling and amazing effect."Mom?" Garvin cautiously called out to his mother Yvette, who looked younger than himself. He really couldn't understand why she appeared in front of her son in this appearance.However, the girl Yvette turned a deaf ear to her son's calls, and just sat there wiping her eyes with her fingers.Garvin then realized that his mother seemed to be crying. It was "seemed to be crying" because he only saw her frowning and looking sad, but he could not see any tears falling from her face. Perhaps ghosts simply cannot shed tears like living people?"Mom, it's me!" Although the person in front of him was a real ghost, and her appearance was far from the last appearance of his mother in his memory, Garvin still felt sincere intimacy and nostalgia after gradually calming down, so

No Part Of The Bad Luck
"There is still a way," The garbage man glanced at them mysteriously with his bloodshot yellow eyes, and then gave a very "amazing" answer under the great expectations of the two, "If you two have time, go to the Wells Mountain Shamanic Shrine. It is said to be very effective!"Oh my god! He thought that the garbage man would give him some good ideas, but he didn't expect that he would ask him to visit the shrine to pray to god again. If this trick worked, would he have ended up like this? Garvin complained in his heart, and then said to the garbage man weakly. "Sir, I have been to a shaman shrine, had my fate read, and consulted a Shaman, but it's all useless, okay?""Sir," Sebastian was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and stopped the garbage grandson who was about to leave with the woven bag. "At least tell us, what is the origin of this female ghost in white?""I've already answered that, I can't see it!" The garbage man said this, suddenly getting irritated, "You know what

No Way Out?
The garbage man's words reminded Garvin of the nightmare he was having before he came to the island. The mournful voice that came from the depths of the island and kept calling him made him shudder.Sebastian originally wanted to say with a smile, "Who are you fooling, old man?" But suddenly he remembered the dream that Garvin had told him before, and he couldn't laugh anymore.The three of them fell into silence for a moment, and the atmosphere on the scene suddenly became a little depressing.After a while, Sebastian was the first to break the silence. "Sir, how do you know all this? Who are you?"The garbage man had a blank expression on his face. He glanced at him and said in a low voice, "I worked as a witch doctor for a while when I was young."It turned out that this was another former shaman who had dealth with spirits or fortune telling. However, Garvin felt that this Shaman seemed to be more capable than those scammers he had met in Providence City before!So he immediately

You Are Destined To Be Here
"Old man, is it really not you who is causing trouble?" After hearing this, Sebastian's first person of interest was still the garbage man. But at the same time, the memory that just remained in his mind immediately jumped out to tell him that this possibility could be said to be very minimal.Because, just now, Garvin's grandmother saw Garvin went out to throw away the garbage and didn't come back for a long time, so she was a little worried. So Sebastian volunteered to go out and check on the situation.As a result, when he walked on this road, he happened to see from a distance that the garbage man was walking towards Garvin, who had his back to them. Then Garvin suddenly raised his arms high for some reason, and then the garbage man pounced on him.Sebastian clearly remembered that, just as he said, at that time, there was no one on the grass in front of Garvin.Seeing that Sebastian also suspected him, the garbage man was so scared that he kept waving his hands. Because of his ne

This Is Really Crazy
""You..." Garvin looked at the garbage man who was holding his wrist in great astonishment. The first reaction that flashed through his mind was that there must be something wrong with his eyes, which must be a big problem than he anticipated.But the next second, when he looked back, his head was buzzing as if it had been whipped by someone. He saw that the protruding rock on the grass in front of him was empty, and there was no sign of the garbage man who had been sitting there just now.Could it be that the garbage man could teleport behind him the moment he raised the knife? But why did he hold his wrist tightly to stop him from moving? Even if Garvin racked his brains, he couldn't figure it out. He could only stare at garbage man who was still holding his wrist, his eyes blank and helpless."Old man, what do you think you're doing?" At this time, a roar came from the sky, accompanied by Sebastian's tall figure leaping into the air in a triple jump."Stop! Don't..." Garvin had jus

Another Garbage Man?
"Forget it," The man swallowed, rubbed his chin again, and then said slowly. "These things are called sea corpse worms. They were ghosts of people who drowned in the sea when they were alive, but think they have unfinished businesses. Because the corpses have been sinking in the sea and have not been recovered and freed from this world, there is no one in the family to do the deeds, so their ghosts cannot cross to the other side, so they keep floating in the sea, and some of them are very resentful and will harm others!""I understand!" Garvin immediately turned to look at the dark sea below the coast and muttered. "Earlier this evening, I met a water ghost on the beach. It must be..."As a result, the old man's next sentence completely overturned his guess. "The prototype of this sea corpse bug is a ghost that sank in the sea. When it first escapes from the sea water and enters the body of a living person, it turns into an egg, and then slowly hatches. From the looks

The Ghost Worms
When Garvin, Sebastian and Lindsey returned to grandma's house together, they happened to see her holding a cane and carrying a bag of garbage. She was opening the courtyard door. It seemed that she was preparing to throw it into the large trash can on the roadside outside.Seeing this, Garvin stepped forward and snatched the garbage bag from his grandmother's hand. "Grandma, I'll throw it away. You go back and have a rest!""Okay, okay." Yvonne handed the garbage bag to Garvin, then helped Lindsey toward the house.Sebastian also followed them into the house.Garvin carried the garbage bag and ran to a large green plastic trash can on the roadside outside in less than a minutes. He was about to throw the garbage bag into the trash can when he suddenly saw a heap of dark shadow squirming down behind the trash can.He was startled and immediately stepped aside. But when he saw the figure of the old man slowly moving out from behind the trash can, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief -

A Strange Family
When she heard Garvin calling her, Shannon stopped and looked back. "What's the matter, Garvin?"Before Garvin could speak, Sebastian rushed to say. "I just wanted to ask you if you still remember the old fisherman who was on the same ferry with us yesterday, who was telling you various ghost stories?""Oh, you mean the middle-aged man who told a lot of scary stories?" Shannon tilted her head slightly and thought for a moment. Her unmodified long shawl hair slid to the side, emitting a black light under the street lamp."Yes, that's him!" Sebastian stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers. "Did he tell you his name, where he lives, how he works, how old he is, and whether he is married or not?""Hm?" Shannon looked at him blankly, her eyes were full of surprise.Sebastian secretly screamed in his heart. Why did he habitually throw out the words he usually asked other girls when picking up girls? This caused Shannon to have a bad impression of him. He was about to explain, but Ga
