Soon, it was midnight.The night was gloomy and the air was cold. No, it was not just cold, it was extremely cold, as if the place he was lying on was not a bed at all, but a deep ice cave.No matter how hard he curled up like an autumn bug, it was of no avail. His whole body, especially his feet, were so cold that he almost lost consciousness.But the most terrible thing was that in the sleepy state, the remaining breath of reason told him directly that this was not an ordinary cold, but with an extremely ominous air of decay. It was as if coming from the deep underworld, so gloomy that it was impossible for it to have the slightest breath of the human world."Ah!" Garvin suddenly woke up from his dark dream and sat up in the bed. A Dream! It was just a cold dream. Garvin tried to calm himself down, but looking down the bed, he saw the frosty ghost. It wasn't a dream, but a real ghost.After going through a series of twists and turns in his brain, Garvin finally figured out the situ
"Hey, Garvin, wake up, wake up! Why are you acting like a little kid and rolling off the bed while sleeping?" Early the next morning, Garvin woke up to Sebastian's yelling and kicking. When he opened his eyes, he found that he was laying on the hard wooden floor. "Fuck!" Slowly, he turned over, sat up from the ground, and touched the back of his head, wondering why he was sleeping on the floor. Soon, an idea flashed through his head as he gradually regained his senses, and he finally remembered the terrifying encounter in the second half of the previous night. Only then did he realize that he actually fainted on the floor, not slept on it.He quickly turned around and looked at the bed against the wall, but there was no one on the blue sheets that had been stained by the morning light that penetrated through the gaps in the curtains, and there were no piles of black hair that later turned into black snakes.Everything was like a nightmare."What are you looking at? Why do you look l
About three hours later, Franklin finally followed his sturdy father out of the gate of Block Island Police Station, and climbed into his father's huge Land Rover dejectedly."Look at yourself! " Seeing his son still retching in the car, Findley couldn't help but frowned again.In fact, he himself felt very uncomfortable at this moment. Although he was born as a fisherman and now owns nearly ten fishing boats and three seawater farms, becoming the well-deserved wealthy ship king, he still inherited the unique characteristics of fishermen. Superstitious, he felt that encountering a dead body was extremely a bad omen after all. So he felt a faint sense of ominousness in my heart.Findley was already in a bad mood, but as soon as he got home, his wife Lucy, who had just woken up and had a head of messy curly hair, learned about what happened to the father and son in the morning, and immediately started to talk non-stop: "I told you not to take him with you. How many times have I done thi
When Franklin pushed open the classroom door, Lindsey was in the middle of her teaching.When they heard the door being pushed open with a bang, both Lindsey standing on the podium and the students in the classroom widened their eyes in shock.Franklin put his hands in the front pockets of his blue trousers and walked nonchalantly through the corridor between the desks toward the seats at the back of the classroom."Franklin, why are you late?" Lindsey put down the textbook in her hand and asked.Franklin slammed his schoolbag on his desk and glanced at the seat next to his. Damn, this damn fat guy has been out of contact since after school yesterday. Maybe he skipped classes on his own and ran off somewhere to enjoy himself.The "fatty guy" that Franklin was talking about was a student named Lewis. He was a tall and strong seventeen-year-old boy who was also Franklin's best friend in school. It was said that many students in the school and even some teachers call them "black and whit
At noon, Garvin arrived at Block Island Middle School located at the east end of Block Island, followed by the idle Sebastian.The only middle school on this part of the island was composed of a junior high school and a senior high school. The teaching scale was not large, but it occupied a lot of space, making the whole school look empty.At this time, a very old man covered in black waste and dirty clothes was passing by the school gate carrying an equally dirty plastic garbage bag. He saw a plastic drink bottle that had fallen aside and turned around. He quickly bent down to pick it up.At this time, the school security guard who happened to be walking out of the gate saw him, and immediately stepped forward and shouted at him. "Hey, old man, stay away from here. Don't stink up the whole place."Wasn't this the old man from yesterday? Garvin took a closer look. Yes, it was indeed the old scavenger who was almost hit by the taxi driver yesterday.The old man, who was called the "Gar
Garvin looked at Quincey and found that this man, who was several years older than himself, had fair complexion, handsome features, and wore a pair of rimless glasses. He seemed to be full of culture, but from his determined eyes, he could tell that this was a calm and resolute person. So he couldn't help but feel a certain fondness for him. He felt that it was very reassuring to have such a person as his cousin's colleague."Then let's go with you to see this Heather." At this time, Sebastian quipped in." Garvin immediately saw through the real purpose of this guy. First, so he could get close to Lindsey. Second, Quinn's younger brother was injured and was admitted to the hospital. As his sister, Quinn, would definitely be there, he wanted to see if he could take the opportunity to get close to Quinn too. He wanted to kill two birds with one stone.What made Garvin happy was that no matter what he said, Lindsey had already declined Sebastian's proposal: "Sebastian, I would like to t
Garvin finally saw Lindsey and Quincey disappear at the corner of the street. When he looked back, he found that Laila, who was closely followed by the female ghost in white just now, had also disappeared. She must have entered a shop on the roadside.At this time, Sebastian patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile. "Not bad, Garvin. You really made up a fascinating story about a sick female students and rare sickness. Well, the good, honest and loyal doctor didn't expect that when he told lies, he would be found our immediately. What a pity!"Garvin had no time to pay attention to Sebastian's teasing and quickly followed the direction Laila had just walked, hoping to find her in the surrounding shops."What are you doing and where are you going?" Sebastian followed curiously, but soon guessed his purpose, "You don't want to find that girl just now, do you?""That's an evil spirit behind her. I can't sit idly by!" Although Garvin was afraid of ghosts, he was even more afraid o
Although Garvin had not been Sebastian's housemate for a long time, he still had some understanding of his friend's family's situation. Sebastian's parents owned several big companies and were busy all day long. Therefore, Sebastian basically grew up with his grandparents, and he had a good relationship with them. The big house he lived in now actually belonged to his grandparents - he said that he didn't like his parents' super large villa located in the most high-end residential area in Providence City. He felt that although it was as magnificent as a palace, it was just too big for him. But unfortunately, his grandma herself was suffering from Alzheimer's disease and was currently being treated in the best nursing home in the City. When he was in Providence City, Sebastian would go to the nursing home to visit his grandma every day. Once, Garvin even bought gifts and went to see her with Sebastian. She was just clear-headed at that time and was a very kind old woman. As for gr
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
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
"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
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
"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
""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
"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
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 -
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
