"I Found a Journal Buried in My Backyard — I Wish I’d Never Read Page 47"
When I bought the house, I was drawn to the backyard. A wide, oddly quiet stretch of grass lined by trees, with patches of stubborn weeds near the fence. It had charm—rustic, almost storybook. But the quiet had weight, and I’d come to understand why.

The Vanishing of Kaelvik: Alaska’s Forgotten Horror
At the heart of Alaska's Seward Peninsula, where tundra meets towering pines, lies Kaelvik, an abandoned mining village once popular in the 1920s that now remains unknown on maps and whispered about with fear. Once known for thriving mining operations during that era, Kaelvik has since been abandoned due to a shadow-like monster called Tsu'nak that caused its sudden abandonment by Alutiiq tribe members and abandoned by time itself. Being drawn by Alaska's mysteries I decided to uncover these secrets myself and what I found had me questioning whether some places would have been better left forgotten altogether - this terrifying tale of Kaelvik remains Alaska's forgotten horror tale.

The Room That Shouldn't Exist

The Whispering Well
Nestled deep in a forest so dense that the sun hardly touched the ground, the settlement of Shonirgram sat shrouded in stillness. Only old trees and dwindling memories remained of the place, which had been forgotten by time. The remaining peasants were elderly, cautious, and constrained by hushed cautions that had been passed down through the ages. A stone well in the center of the village was fractured and covered in moss. The locals referred to it as "the spring of Murmurs." Nobody ventured to approach it. They asserted that it uttered names, secrets, and profanities in voices that were not those of the living while whispering at night. They said that Leela, a healer who was charged with witchcraft more than a century ago, had passed away there. She had been pushed into the well by the terrified townspeople. Before the silence overcame her, she had screamed for hours. She began to whisper to anyone who came close to the well after that day, pleading for her release or, worse, promising companionship.

Snakes on a Plane
It was a sunny morning in July when Flight 407 took off from Bangkok, Thailand, heading to Tokyo, Japan. The plane was full of travelers—families going on vacation, business people with laptops open, and kids excited to fly through the clouds. Everything seemed normal. The seatbelt sign turned off, and passengers began to relax, eat snacks, and enjoy the view from above. But nobody knew that something very unexpected was about to happen—something that would turn this peaceful flight into a sky-high adventure.

Aradale: Australia’s Asylum of Anguish
Looming ominously on "Madman's Hill" in Ararat, Victoria, Aradale Mental Hospital (also known as Ararat Lunatic Asylum) unleashed its imposing gates in 1865. Constructed as one of three massive facilities to deal with Victoria's surplus of "lunatics" – a term remarkably applied to everything from the criminally insane to epilepsy, autism, or postpartum depression sufferers – its 130-year history cemented a reputation of utter misery. And this history of hardship fuels its assertion as Australia's spookiest location.
