Xi'an Hotel
250
The Xi'an Hotel loomed in the dusk like a forgotten specter from the 1950s, its peeling wallpaper whispering secrets of laughter that echoed in the empty halls, where shadows danced just out of view. Guests often woke to find their dreams invaded by soft, disembodied voices, weaving tales of joy and sorrow, as if the walls themselves relayed the tragic histories of those who once called it home. Yet, in the dead of night, a chilling weight settled over the rooms, a presence both curiously intimate and undeniably hostile, leaving visitors haunted by the sensation that they were not alone-never alone.
