Wildwood Hotel Chapter 14

Gabriella staggered out into the beautiful rooftop garden again. She stopped short in the rainy night air, swaying on her feet as she dimly took in the scent of nasturtiums over the blood now running down her face in the rainwater. She still had the filthy cardigan pressed against the wound, tacky with blood and […]

Gabriella screamed, grabbing her face as the slice down her cheek began to bleed. The glass from the broken window had scattered on the rug all around her, this time not an illusion. One particularly large piece of green glass was coated in her blood and it took everything she had not to vomit. She […]

About ten minutes later, Gabriella was back in the halls, hoping against hope for a peaceful last walk around the building. She wanted to go home, but there were at least three more hours until that was going to happen. But at least she wasn’t on until morning this time. The idea of sleeping here […]

“Alright, I’m back in the first floor hallway, coming up on the same spot as yesterday,” Gabriella said over the comms. “Amelia, are you in the room?” “Yeah.” “I’m going to loop back around to you on the second floor, it should take maybe ten minutes unless something comes up.” She said it so casually […]

Wildwood Hotel Chapter 10

Most of what Gabriella heard on her laptop lined up with what Lorraine had said the day before. She listened to the audio file through her shitty laptop speakers as she drove, the computer buckled safely into her passenger seat. The Foundation had sent investigators from the main branch to the Wildwood Hotel, but there […]

Wildwood Hotel Chapter 9

The recordings from the last Wildwood case had finished downloading while they were meeting, so Amelia told Gabriella to stay here and listen through them, then meet her over at the Wildwood. She had her comms securely in place before she left and her plan was to spend some more time with last night’s recordings […]

Gabriella spent the next few hours pulling up information about the Wildwood’s history in local papers while she waited on a response from the archives. If Sarah Morgan had any kind of secret double life, she’d done an excellent job of hiding it. There was nothing but praise for her and Herbert’s work at the […]

Wildwood Hotel Chapter 7

After a few hours of sleep and a long shower, Gabriella was back at work. The first thing she saw when she walked into headquarters was James on his cell phone. He paced the living room, his back to her as she came inside. “I don’t care,” he snapped, sounding so unlike himself that Gabriella […]

Wildwood Hotel Chapter 6

The cameras had picked up so much poltergeist activity that Gabriella would have thought it was faked anywhere else. Had she seen this on the screen at home, she’d be throwing popcorn again. Every single hallway showed vases moving on their own, curtains blowing in a phantom breeze, or orbs sailing and colliding through the […]

Wildwood Hotel Chapter 5

An hour and a half later, Gabriella and Amelia were sitting in a sweetly furnished hotel room with half-empty Tupperwares of pasta on the table in front of them. Gabriella was sipping her soda still as she looked at the Wildwood website’s history section. “They should just lean into the haunting,” she said, half-serious as […]
