The Abandoned Mental Hospital

In the dark corner of a derelict mental hospital, there is a warehouse known for being haunted and creepy by hospital officials. When the sun set and the sky was overcast, the warehouse became a place that anyone who dared to avoid.

The story of the warehouse ended tragically. A few years ago, a hospital owner named Dr. Alexander gave orders to all hospital employees to never open the doors of the warehouse for security reasons. However, none of them knew what was really inside.

Curiosity continues to grow in their minds, especially after some mysterious sightings occur around the hospital.

One of the most sinister sightings was the shadow of a long-haired woman who was always seen crossing the corridor near the warehouse. A hospital clerk who dares to follow him finds himself trapped in a seemingly endless darkness, only to wake back up in the same place where he started.

No one can give a logical explanation of this phenomenon. They could only conjecture and come up with untested theories about what was really going on in that warehouse. There is only one way to find out the definitive answer: to go through the door of the warehouse and uncover the mystery that has been hidden.

A clerk named Sarah bravely appears as a volunteer to explore the warehouse full of mystery. For his courage and curiosity, he is ready to face whatever is in it. With a thumping heart, he opened the door of the warehouse using the key he had obtained secretly.

Upon entering, the room felt very dark and cold. The faint light only came from a candle that was burning in one corner. Sarah decided to keep walking forward, even though her heart was racing and her breathing was getting harder.

The more he explored the warehouse, the more sightings appeared. The faces of the shadows flashed so quickly past the sight of her eyes, it was difficult for Sarah to see clearly. Strange sounds echoed around him, filling his ears with an increasingly intense atmosphere of horror.

Suddenly, at the end of the passageway, he saw a red-colored old cupboard that seemed to emit a hostile aura. Sara felt the call to open the closet. In fact, every fiber of his body rebelled and told him that it was a big mistake.

His subconscious kept shouting for him to go on the run, but his curiosity was too strong to ignore. Trembling, Sarah grabbed the handle of the closet and opened it slowly. And in an instant, all those mysterious apparitions and sounds vanished, replaced by an uncontrollable fear.

Sarah felt her body freeze with fear. He wanted to escape as quickly as possible, but there was a fear that paralyzed his body. Suddenly, the closet shook, as if something was trying to hit the exit. Sarah tried to run but her legs felt like creeping tree roots were shackling her feet to the floor.

"Who...who are you?" sarah shouted in a soft voice.

But there is no answer. There was only a laugh coming from the air. The faces of those shadows reappeared, getting closer and clearer. Sarah tries hard to fend off her fears, trying to survive and find a hidden way out.

With great difficulty, Sarah manages to escape from the flash of the haunted warehouse. When he closed the door behind him, he felt as if the other world had disappeared and he was back in real life.

After the harrowing experience, Sarah immediately reported what she had encountered to Dr. Alexander's. Soon enough, they together decide to vacate the warehouse and close the door forever.

However, fate has other plans for that hospital. Now, the warehouse became the most terrifying ghost story among the people around it.

Those who dared to try to open the door of the barn said that the apparition that existed since time immemorial continued, even after the door was closed. The only way to stop the anger of the evil spirits in the warehouse is to destroy the hospital itself.

To this day, the mental illness hospital warehouse remains haunted and avoided by everyone. The warehouse mystery story continues to grow, attracting the attention of paranormal researchers and adventure seekers who want to uncover the truth behind all the creepy sightings.
