Watch Thread

Agree, each of us is afraid of the darkness, or rather, of what hides there: under-the-bed monsters, ghosts, and forest creatures. But we must always remember that the most terrifying monster has always been, is, and will be a human being. But what if we mix all of this? Here, you will find stories... truly terrifying stories that could happen to any of us, horrors of our reality, which can be explained not only from a scientific perspective but also from something else, something otherworldly... and that will be the scariest part. Here, mysticism and real life will blend together, intertwining each tale like a red thread, allowing you to choose your own explanation for the story you’ve read. These are not stories based on real events... this is real events. Or could it just be a lie?) The choice is yours to make.

I found that there were many things I wished they explored or genres that had more entries in them. So instead of waiting for them to be made, I decided to do it myself and free my trapped creativity. I hope you enjoy it. This is currently being written in the free time I have beside a job with a tricky schedule. I am trying to keep to a schedule of doing 4 - 5 chapters a week at minimum but will do more if i can. To make up for it I will try making the chapters between 1200 - 1400 words on average, to give you a little more to read, again sometimes even more. I hope one day I will be able to work on this more and deliver more chapters and future novels. Warnings for graphic descriptions of death and injury. There will be bloodshed. You have been warned.

Han Jiho, a seemingly ordinary high school student, has been haunted by recurring dreams of a mysterious girl standing on a bridge under a blood-red sunset.
