Scary Horror Stories by Dr. NoSleep

A controversial content creator moves into his extravagant Malibu mansion, hoping to revel in his newfound status, but instead finds himself unraveling amidst whispers in the walls and strange happenings. As the house’s dark geometry seems to magnify his own inner demons, the line between reality and paranoia begins to blur. His attempts to decipher the sinister forces at play lead him to question those closest to him, and even himself. In a mounting atmosphere of dread, what begins as a high-tech prank spirals into a descent into madness, betrayal, and bloodshed. The house reveals itself as more than just a playground for tricks—it becomes the setting for a reckoning no one anticipated.

Ike Burns thought his job at the A-Plus American Service Station was straightforward—fixing cars, stocking shelves, and surviving the graveyard shift. But an old, abandoned car on the lot harbors a secret far deadlier than he ever imagined. When a customer disappears, leaving behind a trail of blood, Ike discovers the creature lurking in the car’s trunk—a monstrous predator that shouldn’t exist. As chaos unfolds, his boss Sergei reveals the horrifying truth: the creature is Ivan, a dark secret tied to Sergei’s past. Now, trapped in the middle of nowhere, Ike must survive the night while grappling with betrayal, fear, and impossible choices. The creature isn’t just hunting—it’s playing. And the deeper Ike digs, the more he realizes the station’s secrets could destroy him. At A-Plus, some things are better left untouched.

This Christmas, the cold streets of Victorian London collide with the fiery depths of Hell in a chilling reimagining of a classic tale. Jacob Marley, the tormented ghost doomed to carry the chains of his earthly sins, is summoned by a sinister demon to deliver a haunting message to his former partner, Ebenezer Scrooge. But as Marley confronts the sins of his past, he discovers that redemption is not within his grasp—and that Hell's games are far crueler than he could have ever imagined. A story of despair, darkness, and the twisted contrast between holiday joy and eternal torment, "The Christmas Misadventure of Marley's Ghost" reveals the untold side of Scrooge’s haunting—a side where hope is fleeting, and salvation is nothing more than a cruel joke. This is not the feel-good Christmas story you thought you knew.
