Ghosts I Didn't Find

At thirteen, he wasn't searching for ghosts-he was searching for something to fill the silence. With nothing but a button phone and a negative filter, he wandered into the places everyone else avoided: abandoned houses, silent groves, and whispered legends. He didn't find proof of the supernatural-just strange patterns, eerie silences, and a creeping sense that something was noticing him. Years later, he stopped hunting.
But whatever he was chasing... didn't stop following.
