A Short Ghost Story 👻

One dark night, Riya was walking home through a quiet village road. The moon was hidden behind the clouds and the wind was blowing slowly through the trees. Suddenly, she heard footsteps behind her. When she turned around, no one was there.
Riya started walking faster. Again she heard the footsteps — tap… tap… tap. Her heart began to beat very fast. She reached an old house at the end of the road. People in the village said the house was haunted.
As she passed the house, a cold wind blew and the door slowly opened by itself. Riya saw a pale figure standing inside. It looked like a ghost! The ghost whispered, “Why are you here…?”
Riya was very scared and ran as fast as she could. The next morning, the villagers found strange footprints near the old house, but no one knew where they came from.
Some people say the ghost still waits there at night for someone to pass by… 👻🌙
