 The Hidden Figures: A Woman’s Journey to Reveal a Dark Secret My name is Maria. My husband Adam and I live in the city of Detroit, USA. A few short years had passed since we tied the knot. Adam worked at a company, but due to the company’s financial troubles, many workers were laid off, including Adam. We were very worried because we were running out of groceries and Adam wasn’t able to find a new job. Every morning, Adam would leave the house searching for work and return empty-handed. No job offers were coming through. Then, one night at around 3:30 AM, Adam’s phone rang. Surprised, he picked up the call and heard a woman’s voice asking, “Do you need a job?” Adam immediately replied, “Yes, I do need a job.” The woman introduced herself as Anna. She explained that she had an elderly mother who wasn’t mentally stable, and Adam’s job would be to take care of her. She also needed a lady to help care for her mother and the house, and we would have to live in their home since her moth...

 The Library That Hid a Cursed Book and a Demonic Secret I'm back with another story. I hope you’ll enjoy it. Liked the story? Share it with your friends too! This happened back in 2010. There was an old library in our area where students would often go to study. A boy named Lucas, who was quite handsome and charming, had recently moved into our neighborhood. He got admitted to our school as well. Lucas was very intelligent and quickly became well-known among everyone. Some boys at school grew jealous of him and started planning something against him. Lucas used to stay in the library until late — everyone knew this. So, a few boys who were jealous of Lucas and known for their mischief went to the library that day and pretended to talk to Lucas in a friendly manner. Secretly, they mixed something in his water and offered it to him. As soon as he drank it, Lucas fell unconscious. Those four boys dragged Lucas to the back section of the library and laid him down there. After a while...

 The True Horror Behind Emily Rose: The Real Exorcism of Anneliese Michel The Exorcism of Emily Rose You must have heard the name of this movie. Today, let’s talk a little about the story behind it. The character shown in this movie was actually based on a real girl named Anneliese Michel, who was born on September 21, 1952, in West Germany. Her first illness appeared at the age of 16, which was Epilepsy. This disease involves symptoms like foaming at the mouth, seizures, and fainting. After some time, she was diagnosed with additional conditions like Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (TLE) and Psychosis. These illnesses cause hallucinations—seeing things that don’t exist, hearing voices, smelling foul odors, talking to oneself, experiencing fear, anger, self-harm, and behaving as though possessed by some demonic force. From a medical perspective, all of these were psychological illnesses. But Anneliese and her parents believed that something paranormal was happening to her. Her condition wo...

Evil Soul Horror Story I had bought a new plot where I was getting a house constructed. The digging work was going on at the plot. While the laborers were digging, they suddenly found an old-looking box. Since the plot belonged to me, they handed the box to me. Naturally, I had a right over that box too. Anyway, it looked quite old, so I brought it home and placed it in my room before going to shower. When I came out, my sister had already opened the box. Actually, since her wedding preparations were underway, she assumed I had brought her some unique gift. The box contained a white cloth, some hair wrapped inside it, and a book that was written in another language. We didn’t pay much attention to it and threw the box in the trash, getting back to the wedding preparations. Eventually, my sister’s wedding took place. A few days had passed when my brother-in-law called angrily and said: "Ayesha has some mental issues. Why didn’t you people tell us earlier?" Ayesha is my sister...

  Shano Stories: Haunted Mountain Horror – Disappearing Children Mystery I'm a new reporter, constantly in search of unique and gripping news stories for my channel. One day, a friend informed me about a mountain region where children had been mysteriously disappearing for quite some time. Just today, the only daughter of a visiting family went missing. The police were searching, but there was no sign of the girl. These incidents had been happening for a while, yet no one knew who was behind the disappearances. I told my friend that we should go there and investigate. Maybe we’d uncover a major story. The next day, my friend Roheel and I reached the mountain area. The place was stunningly beautiful. We posed as a couple so no one would suspect anything, making it easier for us to conduct our investigation. We checked into one of the hotels from where children had gone missing. We had only one week to uncover the truth. I lay down in the room while Roheel went out to gather informat...
