On August 4th of 2023, two friends decided to break into a church that had been closed down due to mysterious reasons.
The neighbors as well as people in the town who live nearby are afraid due to the strange things that were happening inside the church. The priest was transferred to another church after announcing that the church would be closed down due to unknown circumstances. The two friends were curious as to what could be the reason for closing down the church. It's been three months since the church was closed down. So one night, the two friends decided to explore the church, hoping to find something inside. Unbeknownst to them, the situation could take a negative turn for them.
The two friends made their way towards the church. One of the friends is Alen, who has a torch in his hand as a source of light and the other is Joy who has the camera and a head lamp. As both reach near the church door, Alen whispers, "It's been 3 months". Joy gazes into Alen's eyes, displaying a signal of regret but maintaining his pose.
Alen opens the door, trying to be as quiet as possible. Although the church was not abandoned for long, as he opens the door, it makes a faint creak sound which slightly startels Joy. Alen moves inside and Joy follows him. As they step inside, the first thing they notice is a painting. The painting didn't look old. It had an old shabby looking house which was in the middle of a thin forest.
They didn't pay much attention to the painting and decided to move much deeper into the church. Alen opens the second door, which leads them into the center part of the church. As they move inside, Alen says, "There's light on". "Huh" says Joy, smiling nervously. "The...uh..the lights...the", "The Everlasting Light" says Alen as Joy speaks stutteringly.
Joy continues to talk as he focuses his camera towards the red light beaming from a room far away, "It's in every church. It's always supposed to be on". Joy then focuses the camera towards Alen as he says, "It's freezing actually", exclaiming the temperature of the room.
Joy keeps panning the camera around, showing the darkness of the room. As they walk, Alen suddenly utters, "oh", causing Joy to move the camera towards the source of his expression. He directs the light towards the floor and zooms his camera, only to see the floor full of maggots.
They were all over the room, as Joy says disgustingly, "Oh my God, It smells." The room started smelling unappetizing as they started moving forward and forward. "My God! Try not to step on", says Alen as he takes the lead and opens one more door that leads them into another room. The new room didn't seem to have any maggots and with relief, Alen says, "That was disgusting". Alen starts checking his shoe base to see if he had stepped on any of those maggots. Meanwhile, Joy directs his camera towards the stairs which leads them to another floor above. "Let's go upstairs", says Alen as they start walking up the stairs.
They move around, checking each and every room for about 5-10 minutes, exploring every part of the church. After a while, they come back to the same part of the church where they found the maggots. They see the red light which they had seen earlier and move towards it. As they stand by the light, they hear faint whispering. Joy turns the camera back and forth of the room to check if anyone is present in the room with them. Unfortunately, he sees no one, other than his friend Alen.
Joy moves the camera towards Alen, as he steps forward towards the source of the whispering. They see a dark pink curtain, which separates the room they are in into another room.
Alen suddenly drags the curtain. To their surprise, it was a room with toys for kids. The room had a wooden piano, next to it was a small sized pink-white playhouse with a pink door, a board that says "Church Daycare" and a box full of toys.
As Joy explores the room with the camera, with a startled voice he says, "I heard something". Alen starts searching through the toys in the room, as he tries to fit inside the tiny playhouse, to find something at all inside it. Joy continues to show the camera around the room which has many toys, scattered here and there.
Not long after that, they come out of the room and Alen says, "I don't know" with a disappointed face, as he finds nothing. The biggest mistake they made was to enter the church in the first place, even after they were aware of the circumstances. They planned on leaving after finding nothing. So Joy panned the camera to the playroom they had just been inside and showed the pink-white house.
The pink door suddenly closes on its own with a strong force. In a mode of panic, Joy and Alen rushes towards the exit door to get out of the church. They wanted to run out of that place as soon as possible.
The video captured by Joy had recorded the whispers which were heard before they entered the playroom. The voices heard were considered to be the kids playing and people praying.
It was a happy family with a mother, a father and their sweet loving child.
A happy family could be described in many ways. One of the most important traits of a happy family is taking care of each other and loving your close ones unconditionally.
Sounds pretty warm, doesn't it? Well, this is a pretty different story.
It was late at night. Everything was going pretty normal. The 1-year-old child named Noah, along with his mother, Natasha, were lying on the bed before their bedtime. Noah, who's quite naughty, was wide awake and didn't want to sleep. So all he does is play on his own, with the little things he finds amusing. Natasha, who is just beside him, watches him with fondness, as she keeps waiting for him to fall asleep.
About 15 minutes later, Noah suddenly looks distracted by something. He keeps staring at the curtains behind him, from time to time. After a while, he begins to wave at nothing but thin air. Natasha, who is just beside him asks confusingly, "What's wrong? ". Noah continues to wave at nothing, "uh...oh..eh" says playfully, with his baby voice. Confused Natasha tries asking Noah again,"What is it? Who are you waving at? ". Noah looks at his mom with the eyes, desperate to show what he sees. The mother could do nothing but ask her child in a concerning voice. Although she couldn't understand Noah, she tried her best to get answers.
Natasha starts to analyze the situation by observing her child carefully. Noah constantly kept waving at the curtains and was also having some sort of conversation, which the mother could definitely not understand. Noah kept smiling, as though someone was trying to make him feel happy.
Not long after, Natasha gets a gist of the situation. Although she couldn't believe it herself, she somehow wanted to be certain. She grabs the photo frame, which was kept near the bed, on the table and shows it to Noah.
Noah, who was busy playing, diverts his attention to the photo frame shown to him by his mother. To her surprise, Noah takes the frame from her hand and points to the person in the frame and starts looking at the curtains again. He begins to show the photo frame to the curtains, as though he was showing it to a person.
Natasha, who was watching all of this, started tearing up. She tried to talk to Noah.
"N.... Noah..", she continued with a trembling voice, " Is.. is that.. is that him? ". Noah looks at his mom with his lovely little eyes.
This left her speechless. She realized that the person in the frame was the same person Noah is able to see, but she isn't. Tears started flowing from her eyes, and her heart felt heavy.
With a shaking voice she asks him again, "Noah, is it dad? ". " Daada!" Noah shouts with a happy and adorable voice.
The photo frame contained a picture of Noah with his dad, who had passed away not very long ago.
Sleepless nights, Unbelievably boring times, Slow moving clocks, Cashless bank, Desperate situations and walking ghosts. These events in life are unavoidable. The only thing we can do is go with the flow.
What if all these events come all at once?
A man in his 50's, had his night shift, looking after the patients. Although it wasn't his turn for the night shift, he had no choice but to help his friend out. He was also desperate to have some cash, as his rent was due.
The night shift begins at 9 PM and ends at 6 AM. It's quite a rough night!
It was all fine until 1 AM, when the hospital suddenly grew quiet, as if every single person on earth had disappeared into thin air. Time seemed to move much slower than expected and the surroundings seemed much quieter than usual. He constantly kept looking at the clock, as he counted every minute that passed. He tried to keep himself busy, in order to stay awake by playing some games available on his phone or going for short walks around the varanda.
An hour passed and it was pitch dark everywhere.
He always kept an eye around, to make sure he wasn't slacking off. As he was seated in his chair, he saw an elderly patient approaching him. The man stands up and asks the approaching patient, "Sir, where are you going?". The patient didn't seem to respond, so the man informed the patient, politely, "Sir, You shouldn't be walking around here. Please go back to your room". The patient speaks with a faint voice, "Washroom?". The man could barely hear the patient, so he asked him, "Can you please repeat that? What did you say, sir? ". " Where's the washroom, young man? ", asks the patient with an audible voice. The man is confused as the washrooms for the patients were already available in their respective rooms. "Your rooms already have washrooms available. I can guide you there if you'd like to follow me, sir," remarks the man, as the patient pays no attention to his words.
"The flush isn't working", the patient expressed as he seemed desperate to leave. "Oh, my apologies! I wasn't informed about that," says the man, stepping aside and gesturing towards the corner of the corridor, says the man as he starts moving aside and points to the corner of the corridor, "This way leads to the washroom. Here, hold my hand. Let me help you, Sir." The patient ignores the man, as he assists his hand to help the elderly patient. "I can take care of myself. Thank you for your help", says the patient as he proceeds to walk towards the washroom. The man was baffled by the patient, but ignored it as it wasn't a big deal.
As the time went by, the man found it difficult to keep himself awake and started dozing off. He was suddenly awakened by the breeze. The patient, who went to the washroom, didn't seem to return, so he went to the washroom to check on him. The man didn't find him anywhere. He checked through all the rooms and didn't find any rooms empty. Thus, he assumed that the patient had returned to his chambers.
The night shift finally ends. When he was about to leave, he met the nurse who was in charge of all the rooms on that floor. He informs the nurse about the patient. The nurse was confused and asked him, "What patient? That's not possible! The patients on this floor are either paralyzed or are in a coma. So there's no way anyone could walk up to you and talk." The man looks at the nurse with disbelief.
The nurse wanted to be sure, so she took the man to the CCTV room and asked him to show the footage last night. The man was confident with what he was saying, so he started investigating through all the footage from last night.
He went back and forth of all the footage.
After watching the clip from last night, he was left baffled and started to quiver in fear, because the man was found talking to no one but to the walls.
In fact, there was no person at all. It was as if he was talking to himself. The nurse, who was also watching this clip, was left speechless.
Later that day, the man found himself alone on the sofa, in his apartment. He was still thinking about what had happened earlier. After some time, he received a call from the same nurse. A shiver ran down his spine as the nurse informed him, "We discovered that the patient in bed number 42 had passed away around 3 PM, this morning." She added to it, "He was in a coma for a year."
