We make assumptions about the things that scare us: a stranger, the darkness, even abandoned hallways. We presume that they are inherently dangerous. But the truth is, they're just the unknown. You may be surprised at the protection you'll get from a stranger, or the peace you'll find in the dark. As with many things, the answer isn’t always clear cut - instincts can be wrong. That inherent danger you’ve been taught to fear, may have been trying to save you all along….  First, life imitates a horror movie Followed by murderous vigilante justice  Then, terror lurks inside a forbidden corridor Finally in our featured story, a gamer finds solace within a living nightmare Match with a licensed therapist when you go to talkspace.com and get $100 off your first month with the promo code SOMETHINGSCARY.

We are entering the month of The Hungry Ghost Festival. Many East East Asians, Buddhists, and Taoists believe this is when ghosts can return to Earth to haunt the living.

There are many important rules for humans to follow in order to stay safe during the festival. A list of Do and Don'ts you better follow, or the ghosts will satisfy their hunger with YOU. First, Do NOT be alone in the dark. Then, Do NOT mock the dead. Finally in our featured story, whatever you do, Do NOT take the last bus.
