After Everyone Had Left | Real Ghost Stories
Late one night, after the restaurant had emptied and the doors were locked, she was finishing up her closing routine alone. The kind of shift she’d worked dozens of times before—quiet, predictable, nothing out of the ordinary. That’s when she saw someone cross the dining room. It wasn’t a blur or a trick of the light. It was clear enough to make her stop what she was doing and look up. At fi...

It stayed the same every time, but never in a way that seemed worth holding onto. Eventually, it stopped altogether. By the time it came back, it had been long enough that he barely recognized it at first. The details felt sh...
