The story is a dark psychological horror centered around a group of students trapped in a college during a curfew, where a storytelling game slowly turns terrifyingly real. I believe it aligns well with Good novel horror audience.

Chapter 1: The Night of Curfew

.The city had been under curfew for three days.

No one knew what was happening outside — the government had shut down all networks, the streets were deserted, and the sound of sirens echoed every hour like some blind signal in the dark.

St. Mark’s College of Arts and Science — an old institution from the British era.

Red-brick walls, tall boundaries, and a world of its own behind them — a world that had now turned into a prison.

Nearly one hundred and twenty students and a few professors were trapped inside the campus.

At first, everyone thought it was just a matter of two days.

We’ll go home soon.

But on the third night, when the generator stopped working and phone batteries began to die —

fear slowly, silently began to settle into everyone’s mind.

At 8:30 p.m., everyone was gathered in the college auditorium.

Dim lights.

Candles flickering in the darkness.

Cold air drifting in through the windows.

Silence everywhere — only the candle flames trembled now and then, casting strange shadows on the walls.

Then, footsteps echoed on the stage.

A tall, thin man with white hair walked forward slowly —

it was Professor Raghavan.

His eyes were deep, as if hiding some secret within.

He smiled, but the smile was neither warm nor cold — just… unsettling.

“I think,” he said softly,

“the darkness outside has now entered this building as well.”

“So why don’t we face this darkness… with a game?”

A murmur spread through the hall — someone laughed, someone asked,

“What do you mean, sir?”

Raghavan replied,

“We will tell stories. One by one.

Stories of fear.

But remember — every story must carry the scent of truth.

Because fear… does not live in lies.”

A cold shiver ran through the room.

Some students protested, but the professor only smiled and said,

“If you don’t believe me, let’s begin with my story.”

And slowly, he sat down.

The candlelight flickered across his face —

and he began to speak.

“This story is about the day

I saw a human being die with my own eyes.

But it didn’t end there.

Because… the very next day,

he was sitting in my class again.”

The auditorium fell silent.

Every gaze was fixed on that man —

and inside every heart, something unseen knocked softly… like fear asking to be let in.

A faint breeze moved through the auditorium.

The candle flames trembled — and every shadow seemed to crawl along the walls like some hidden creature.

All eyes were fixed on Professor Raghavan.

His voice was low now, cold — as if he was pulling words out of his own fear.

“This story is about ten years old…

When I was teaching at a small college in Dehradun.

The college was old. Very old.

But the real age wasn’t in its buildings —

it was in its hostel.”

He paused and took a sip of water.

Someone coughed.

Someone glanced at their watch.

But Raghavan continued without looking at anyone.

“The hostel was called East Block —

but no one used that name.

Everyone said,

‘Don’t stay in Block E.’

Why?

Because no student who lived there ever completed a full academic year.”

A few students sitting at the back chuckled softly —

perhaps thinking it was just atmosphere-building.

Raghavan didn’t even look at them.

He simply went on.
