Blackout - A short story
As the clock struck midnight, the town plunged into darkness. Streetlights flickered and died, leaving only an eerie silence. Tara alone in her apartment, felt a chill run down her spine. She reached for her phone, but it was dead. Panic set in as she navigated the pitch-black room.

Strange whispers echoed around her, growing louder with each passing moment. Suddenly, a cold hand gripped her shoulder. She screamed and ran towards the door, only to find it sealed shut.

Trapped in the eerie darkness, Tara realized she was not alone. Something sinister lurked in the blackout.
