Once upon a time, in a small town in the middle of nowhere, there was a legend of a ghost serial killer. No one knew where this legend began or who the killer was, but the stories were passed down through generations.
The legend said that the ghost had been a killer in life, targeting young women who looked like his long-lost love. He had been caught and executed, but he had made a deal with the devil to continue his killing spree. He would haunt the town, seeking out young women and claiming their lives.
Most people didn't believe in the legend, chalking it up to a scary story told around campfires. But a few people knew the truth. They had seen the ghostly figure, lurking in the shadows, stalking his next victim.
One night, a group of teenagers decided to test the legend. They went to the old abandoned house where the killer had lived, daring each other to go inside. They didn't find anything at first, but then they heard a creaking sound upstairs. They followed the sound to a locked door. When they opened it, they found a room filled with pictures of young women.
Suddenly, the door slammed shut, and they heard a chilling laugh. They tried to open the door, but it wouldn't budge. Then they heard a voice, coming from the shadows.
"I've been waiting for you," the voice said. "You're going to make the perfect addition to my collection."
The teens screamed as the ghostly figure emerged from the shadows, brandishing a bloodied knife. They tried to run, but the ghost was too fast. One by one, he claimed each of their lives, adding them to his collection of lost loves.
The legend of the ghost serial killer lives on, a warning to all who dare to test the stories told around the campfire. Because sometimes, the scariest stories are the ones that are true.
