"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 initiative to look for the spirits, wasn't it like he didn't want to live long?
"Hm?" Sebastian narrowed his big eyes and looked at Garvin with a smile. "Are you that afraid?"
Garvin was too lazy to pay attention to him, and just drew a circle in his heart, cursing this guy to experience what he himself had been going through when it came to things unseen.
"Young man." The fisherman seemed to be a nice person. He didn't resent Sebastian for stealing the beauty's attention. After hearing their conversation, he immediately came over and advised him kindly, "Don't do this stupid thing. If you encounter something unclean there, it will be really bad for you, and you won't even have the time to regret it!"
Sebastian did not take his words seriously at all, and said nonchalantly: "Don't worry, Mister. To tell you the truth, I have never been to such a legendary haunted place before, and I have never encountered one, but I've never seen a ghost where others claimed to have seen them. So, either those ghosts are afraid of me and never dare to show up in front of me, or there are no ghosts in this world. Am I right, Garvin? Garvin, Garvin ?”
But poor Garvin had symptoms of seasickness again. His face was pale, his head was manifesting beads of sweat, his stomach ached, and he no longer had the energy to respond to his friend's words. "No, I, I have to go to the restroom."
After saying these words, Garvin walked to the door of the cabin, opened the iron hatch, and ran towards the bathroom at the stern of the ferry. When he returned from the bathroom and was about to open the closed hatch and return to the cabin, he unintentionally glanced through the transparent glass at the top of the hatch and saw the fisherman just now still leaning on the stewardess.
However, at this time, there was another woman beside the fisherman. The woman was wearing a long floor-length white dress and had long black hair that covered her face like a waterfall. Behind the wall of her hair, shone a chilling otherworldly light. Her whole person was like a pale black and white ink painting stained with misty water, blurred in the dim light inside the cabin.
Although there was something frightening about what he was seeing, Garvin didn't think much about it, but lowered his head, opened the heavy iron hatch, and walked into the cabin. Then, an incredible scene happened.
In just a few seconds after he opened the door and entered the cabin, the woman in white who was standing next to the fisherman vanished into the thin air.
What on earth? Garvin blinked his eyes curiously, looked around, and found that there were only a few passengers in the cabin as before, but none of them was wearing white clothes. He walked to the service desk in disbelief and took a look inside to see if the woman in white had gone inside the service desk, but found nothing. The service desk was only two and a half feet in height and couldn't hide an adult woman of average stature.
The stewardess looked curiously at Garvin, who was looking around, and asked with concern: "Sir, what are you looking for? Did you lose something?"
"No, no." Garvin replied to her and walked to the slightly smaller cabin at the back, but it was even more deserted than the first cabin. Except for an old couple who were dozing and a young man playing with his mobile phone, no one else was around.
He immediately ran to the opposite side of the cabin and looked through the windows on the cabin wall towards the opposite deck, but the long and narrow deck was completely empty. Not a single person in sight.
At this moment, a hand unexpectedly was lay on his back, which frightened him so much that he almost jumped up on the spot: "Ah, what are you doing?"
"I should be the one to ask this!" Sebastian, the owner of the hand, said with a suspicious look on his face, "What are you looking for? Could it be that you lost your wallet?"
Garvin glanced at the fisherman not far away, then dragged Sebastian aside and asked in a low voice, "Did you just see a woman in white clothes and long hair standing next to that fisherman?"
"White clothes, long hair? Are you talking about the female ghost in the story just now?" Sebastian thought he was joking and asked playfully.
Female ghost? Hearing Sebastian's question, Garvin carefully thought about what he had just seen, and couldn't help but feel a chill running through his body.
Indeed, although the woman's long hair obscured her face, he still remembered that her face was as pale as white paper.
Not only that, it was early spring, and the weather was still very cold, especially on the windy sea. Therefore, even Sebastian, who often traveled around and was as strong as an ox, was wearing a thick coat. But the woman just now seemed to be wearing only a light, long-sleeved dress which was meant for summer.
No, it was not just the skirt that's light and fluttering, but her whole person gave an ethereal and fluttery feeling, as if she was basically floating in mid-air.
Garvin's face, which was originally pale due to seasickness, was even paler now. His shoulders were shaking slightly, and he weakly walked to a seat next to him and slumped down on it. Oh my god, here we go again! He wailed silently in his heart, but this time the place where he encountered the ghost was not in a hospital with many dead people, but on a ferry!
"What's wrong with you? You're not going to die from seasickness, are you?" Sebastian came over and pushed his shoulder.
"Sit down." Garvin pointed to the seat opposite him and said to Sebastian. "I need to tell you something."
"What's going on? You sound like you're going to tell me your last words?" Sebastian half frowned, half smiled, and sat down opposite Garvin.
Garvin looked around and saw that the other passengers around him were busy with their own business and no one was paying attention to their conversation, so he leaned towards Sebastian and lowered his voice: "Sebastian, I think there's something on this ferry. A ghost I think.”
"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
On the night when Garvin was forced to take a rest, he came to his girlfriend's house depressedly, trying to find some comfort from her, but he found her having sex with a guy in a suit inside a Mercedes Benz.When he went to argue with her the next day, all he got was her sarcasm. 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. He originally spent three months of his salary bonus to buy this pair of gold rings, hoping that he and his girlfriend could be as eternal as gold. 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
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
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
