《Short Ghost Stories》17) Lost My Way
Advertisement
Location : Johor, Malaysia
Sender : Mr Saiful
I live in Woodlands area in Singapore, a place very close to Johor, Malaysia. So it is normal for me to travel to Johor frequently, especially when my family members love the food there.
On this particular night after 12.30am, i went into Johor. My family members were all craving for some Malaysian food so my Mum told me to buy food in an area in Johor called.. Stulang Laut. After checking out of the checkpoint, i straight away go to Stulang Laut. There are a lot of food stalls there. I ordered 4 packets of food to bring home.
After that, usually i would do a U-turn but this time i went straight into the streets of Stulang Laut. My friend had once told me that if i ride home using this particular road, it would be faster to reach Singapore.
As i ride through the street, all of a sudden, the street lights just..blackout! My heart almost stopped beating but i just ignore it and continued riding. I was the only one on the road and the only light was coming from my motorbike's headlight. It felt so creepy because it was so dark!
I wasn't satisfied so i stopped riding and called my friend. He explained to me how to go about and that's when i realized i had gotten onto the wrong street. He said, i was supposed to turn into the second road but instead i went into the first road! As i put down the phone, i turned and stopped.. because what i saw really creeped me out!
Right there on my right, there was a whole stretch of... the Muslim cemetery!! I quickly got on my bike and started riding back to where i came from. On my way there, i kept on reading the prayers non-stop! As i came into light again and turn into the supposed street, i felt a huge sense of relief!

The other street was very lively, full with food stalls and people around. It is so different from the other one. But as i ride, i noticed almost everyone there kept staring at me! I just brush it off and waited for the green light.
"Boy! Oh boy!" i realized an Uncle there was calling out to me.
"Come here..just come here for a while.." he said again.
I parked my bike at a corner and went up to him.
"Sit here for a while. Order anything from my shop for free. The thing is still there.." he said while looking at my bike.
I turned around to look but i could not see anything.
"You can't see it..but i can. It is seating on your bike. Just rest at my shop for a while. It will get bored of you. Where you from?" he asked again.
"I'm on my way back to Singapore, Uncle.." i told him.
"Oh..a Singaporean. There have been so many encounters. People have told me many stories about that street. There is an old Villa there..and there's a cemetery there.." he added.
I ordered coffee and sat there while at the same time tried to gain some knowledge of the other street. I think i sat there between 15-20 minutes.
"You can go now. Its gone..Go home now.." he told me.
I looked at my bike and him again.
"Don't worry. Its gone now." he said again.
What an experience that night. I only felt its presence but thank God i didn't see it. Big thanks to the Uncle for saving me from whatever it is.

Cheep!?
Charles Monroe survived the disappearance of his parents, did his best to hold things together for himself and his sister. He survived when she, too, vanished, leaving behind nothing but a cryptic note. He was devastated, but he kept moving forward as best he could. Cancer didn’t put him down, and after suffering through several rounds of chemotherapy, Charles Monroe thought that things might finally be looking up. That is, until a virulent strain of ebola swept through the city. With his immune system strained as it is, the odds don’t look good for Charles. Now, on the bridge between life and death, he hears a voice claiming to know where his family went. It claims that it needs his help and that it can give him a second life, one far away from all the pain he’s ever known. So, Charles answers as any reasonable person would. He says no. Charles isn't ready or willing to die yet. But, as with everything else to this point, even his choice to keep fighting is taken from him all too soon. With no other option but the dark oblivion of death, Charles chooses to make a deal with the spirit of a distant world that's seeking a wild card in its battle against the gods, monsters, and mortals that threaten its existence. Someday, he’ll find where his family went. Someday, he’ll uphold his end of the bargain and hunt beings powerful beyond anything he’s ever known. Someday, he might even – hatch? “CHEEP!?” Things to Know: -Cheep!? Will release on a minimum weekly schedule. -After a backlog of chapters, posting will slow, but in the interim you can expect a chapter a day up until roughly 25 chapters. -This story at times will potentially carry some heavy moments, but the tone is intended to be lighter overall. -There are invisible game-like elements in this story, but nothing so concrete as a dedicated gamelit novel. -I personally have some issues with anxiety, so I may or may not interact with the community a lot. I'll try if anyone has questions, but I can't guarantee that it'll be consistent. -MC is a non-human lead, and will never actually become human. Romance will potentially happen between side-characters, but not with the MC. -MC IS NOT THE ONLY VIEW POINT. I have to put that out there because people sometimes hate alternate PoV's in a story. None of them will be filler, and they'll be there only to give a little bit more nuance and meaning to the world that the MC has stepped in, or is about to be imminently important. I'll try to keep them down, but this also helps to prevent me from burning out getting trapped in one view. -Most of all, I hope that this story is enjoyable to you, and that you have a great time reading it! -Written by Michael Adams, Cowritten/Edited by Summer Kent

Generic Zombie survival Wuxia Cliche story
Same old same old. Zombies attack. Zombies Evolve. Humans evolve. Humans gain superpowers. No deep plot, no plot planned out at all actually. Writing it as I go and because I'm a sad boi trying to use stories as a form of escapism. Not going to proofread, not going to check for grammar or anything. Will definitely read like a machine-translated Chinese amateur web novel. Have a nice day. (The cover is from one punch man, no this is not a fanfic) (I don't actually plan/think anything in this will be too gory or "traumatizing" but since its a zombie survival story I thought I might as well add it, plus the fact that the MC does some pretty messed up stuff. He's the stereotype Wuxia villain so to speak, expect competently and not dumbed down to make the hero look smart.) I will add warnings in author notes before chapter starts if anything particularly "gory" or trigger events happen.
