Is Chupacabra Real?
Commentary When it comes to proving the existence of a cryptid, evidence is everything. This rule can be applied to the Loch Ness Monster, Bigfoot, and other creatures of modern legend. The rule also applies to the modern-day boogeyman of Latin America: the chupacabra.

The Shadows of Silver Lane
The streets of Silver Lane had always seemed quieter than they should be at night. The dim streetlights flickered over empty shops, casting long, uneven shadows that stretched like dark fingers across the cracked pavements. Raj, a young man who worked nearby, had walked these streets countless times. Yet tonight, something felt different—he could almost feel the weight of unseen eyes watching him from the corners of the alleys.

The Unnamable of State Route 87
The Night on State Route 87 It was a usual drive on a well traveled road in Arizona. State Route 87 was a route William Church knew like the back of his hand, often traveling to and from Phoenix. So well in fact that he felt safe enough to bring his wife and travel with her across the desert. Something he went back and forth with in his head seeing how the desert heat and endless terrain can often be unforgiving. What if the truck broke down and they were left stranded? The drive time was about an hour on a night where the moon rose faster than anticipated, and stars started to shimmer bright, twinkling like a mother smiling back at you, on this night a little too bright for the vast expanse.

The whitch of the black haveli
At the edge of the village of Soonpur stood an old, abandoned mansion known as the Black Haveli. Even during the daytime, sunlight seemed afraid to touch its walls. At night, the place felt alive, breathing in silence. No bird ever perched there, no animal dared to cross its path. The elders of the village whispered that a witch lived there—one who came out after midnight and trapped travelers with her voice.

The fog in water
It was late at night, and the village streets lay silent, blanketed in a thick, creeping fog. Every house seemed abandoned, their windows like dark, unblinking eyes staring into the emptiness. The wind whispered through the narrow lanes, carrying with it an unsettling chill that made the hair on Ali’s arms stand on end. He had just moved to the village, inheriting the old family house from a distant relative. The house was old, worn down by decades of neglect, and yet Ali had been drawn to its strange charm, unaware of the dark secrets it held.

THE THINGS THAT RULE THE VENEZUELAN INTERIOR.
There are places on Earth that remain unclaimed not because no one has tried to reach them, but because something else got there first.

The Elevator That Only Stops For One Person. AI-Generated.
The hospital elevator had six floors. Everyone knew that. Ayaan worked the late reception shift, 8 p.m. to 4 a.m., when the corridors emptied and the building sounded less like a hospital and more like a memory trying to breathe.

The Mirror That Blinked First
Clara had never believed in cursed objects. She believed in dust, in age, in poor lighting, in imagination — but never in the supernatural. That was why the mirror didn’t frighten her when she first saw it.

Shadows in the Attic. AI-Generated.
I had always loved old houses, so when I found one on the edge of town with a “for rent” sign, I didn’t hesitate. The place was charming, with creaking floors, high ceilings, and an attic that I was told had once been used for storage. The landlord warned me that the attic was dusty and dark, but nothing more. I laughed it off, thinking of the old horror movies I’d watched as a teenager.

When Aarav moved into the rental house, the landlord warned him about one thing. “It’s very quiet,” the old man said, forcing a smile. “Some people don’t like that.”

The House That Corrects You. AI-Generated.
The first time the house corrected me, I thought I was tired. I came home late, dropped my keys on the table, and kicked off my shoes. When I returned to the hallway a minute later, the shoes were neatly placed side by side, toes facing the door.
