"What happened next?"

Sure enough, as soon as the fisherman let it slip, some among the listening passengers couldn't bear it anymore and jumped out to ask questions. However, this time it was not the stewardess who asked the question, but a guy who suddenly appeared from behind the fisherman's service desk like a green onion rising from the ground.

"Ah!" The fisherman who likes to tell ghost stories to scare people was finally frightened by this guy who appeared unexpectedly. He turned his head and looked him up and down and asked. "Who are you?"

The new guy who suddenly appeared was wearing a dark brown coat, a blue shirt and black jeans. He was tall, had thick eyebrows and big blue eyes. He was a handsome guy.

Because of his appearance, the stewardess who was originally concentrating on listening to the story was immediately distracted by him, and did not even notice the guy's arrogant look with his hands in his trouser pockets, suggesting that he is actually an idle person.

Sebastian was his name.

Garvin on the side gave him a fierce roll of the eyes which was self-evident. This guy didn't take good care of his luggage, but just abandoned them on the seats. Where did he think he was?

But Sebastian ignored him and just urged the fisherman to finish the story quickly.

Garvin once again had a deeper understanding of the shamelessness of this rich guy - everyone could see that the fisherman absolutely hated this guy who suddenly appeared and stole the beauty's attention, but he could still control himself. With an innocent face, Sebastian continued to pester the fisherman to continue telling the story. 

In the end, the fisherman was completely defeated by his shamelessness and had to tell the story angrily. "Just when my buddy was approaching the haunted house and could immediately see the white shadow in the window frame on the second floor, a gust of powerful wind suddenly came from the sea. It brought a sharp, stinging, mist with it. The mist directly blinded him, and the pain made him cry for father and mother on the spot. He just couldn't stop screaming!"

"Did he see clearly what the white shadow was?" Sebastian asked curiously.

Garvin felt very strange. Since this guy was a complete fan of weird things, why didn't he believe that there were really ghosts and othere in this world?

You know, Garvin told him several times before about his experience of encountering ghosts and other spirits in the hospital, but every time he recounted it, he was met with deep suspicion from this guy. Either he thought that Garvin was dreaming, or he suspected that Garvin was under too much work pressure and was having hallucination.

The fisherman added: "He could only vaguely see a woman with disheveled hair. Before he could see what she looked like clearly, his eyes were blurred by the mist blown by the cold wind. At this point, no matter how hard my brother tried, he couldn't hold on any longer. So he covered his eyes and ran away like a headless fly, screeching like a banshee."

"Didn't the female ghost chase him out?"

The fisherman glanced at Sebastian sadly. It was easy to see from his eyes how much he wished it was the stewardess who asked the question and not this person of the same gender as himself.

However, he continued to tell the story very dedicatedly. "When the two people following him saw this, they were even more frightened, and they quickly dragged my buddy and rolled down the cliff."

"Is it over like that?" Sebastian, who thought the story would end here, asked reluctantly.

"Of course not." The fisherman immediately denied his guess and said. "After they got down from the mountain, they sent the guy to the hospital. The doctor took a look at him and said he was fine. He was just confused by the sharp mist, and he simply cleaned it. After a while, he was given some eye drops and sent back, saying that he would be fine after a night's rest. But on the second day, instead of recovering, this guy's eyes suddenly started to bleed. That's when people really became scared."

"What happened next?" Sebastian asked again.

The fisherman shook his head and said: "Later, this guy's eyes were completely damaged. He went to countless big hospitals all over the country, but he couldn't see well afterwards. Later, everyone said he had himself to blame. He was too courageous. When he saw something unholy that night, he didn't avoid it, but ran forward to see what was going on. As a result, he angered the ghost who spread some shady mist, and blinded his eyes."

After listening to the fisherman's story, the stewardess was stunned and said nothing, as if she was frightened by the story.

Sebastian was still unfinished and kept asking, "Sir, do you know where the female ghost in this haunted house came from?"

"I think..." The fisherman was hesitating. 

But the stewardess next to him suddenly shouted. "Can you stop talking about it? I think we've had enough for the day."

Seeing this, the fisherman quickly raised his thick palms and comforted her with kind words. "Okay, okay, I won't say it anymore, I won't say it anymore!"

Sebastian first lowered his eyes in disappointment, and then furrowed his two slender eyebrows in deep thought.

Although he had only been Sebastian's tenant and roommate for three months, Garvin, who already had a certain understanding of his way of life, immediately guessed what he was up to.

As expected, after a moment, Sebastian happily went to him and sat down on the chair next to him. The poor blue plastic seat suddenly creaked under the ruthless pressure of his tall body.

"Garvin, did you hear that? It turns out that there is such a fun place on Block Island. It seems that I really came to the right place this time! How about we go and have a look tomorrow?"

"Not in this life." Garvin coldly rejected his proposal.

"Why not?" Sebastian asked strangely.

Garvin felt that his friend's question was very idiotic, so he didn't bother to answer it at all. However, in view of his painful experience in the past - anyone who dared not answer Sebastian's question would definitely collapse under his fragmentary thoughts in the end. So he had no choice but to reluctantly replied: "Didn't you hear? There are unholy spirits there. Aren't you just looking for death going there?"

    "It's impossible for evil spirits or ghosts to really exists." Sebastian waved his arms disapprovingly at first, and then said expectantly, "However, I really want to go to a cliff to experience the scary atmosphere of a supposedly haunted house. I've already thought about it. The article will be themed 'Horror Journey'. It will be dedicated to writing about my thoughts after traveling to various legendary haunted places. It will definitely be very popular, don't you think?" After saying that, he excitedly patted Garvin's shoulder with such force that he almost knocked Garvin, who was not short but slightly thinner than him, off his seat.Garvin finally managed to stabilize his body's center of gravity and said angrily: "If you want to go there, fine, go ahead. But you'll have to go alone. I'm not ready to die!"Considering his continuous unfortunate state for more than half a year, it would be good if the spirits didn't take the initiative to come to him. So for him to now take the

    "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

    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 guy who drove the Mercedes bought her a platinum ring with a huge diamond on it.He couldn't help but look at the pair of gold rings his girlfriend threw back to him and the pair of gold rings he still wore on his left middle finger and smiled bitterly.

Unfortunately, after spending a long time with her, he was just a ridiculous alternative at best.He couldn't survive in the hospital, and his girlfriend

    "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

    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

    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

    "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

    "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

    "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 -

    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
