Haunted Places Live

Chu Yang found a new job as a room attendant at the DeRosa Hotel a few months ago.The hotel is about three hours' drive from the city center, surrounded by the coniferous forests of the Rocky Mountains, and only in front of it is the clear and blue Rosemary Lake.If you stand in front of the gate of the hotel in spring and summer, you can see the snow-capped mountains in the distance beyond the mirror-clear lake and the layers of forests, reflecting the almost holy beauty under the transparent blue sky. shine.But in winter, it was only the beginning of November, and the heavy snow had already sealed everything.The surface of the lake is pressed under the solid ice and snowdrifts more than one meter thick, and it is all white as far as the eye can see. If you look at it for a long time, your eyes will be sore and teary, and you may even feel dizzy.

Lake Rosemary is not as famous as Lake Louise, and naturally there are not as many guests as the Lake Louise Hotel.Another selling point of the Tirosa Hotel is its hot springs, but unfortunately the hot springs are not as famous as another Harrison Hot Springs hotel near Vancouver.As a result, the hotel became more and more tasteless, and it was extremely depressed in winter.The hotel has also had its glory days. The architectural style still stays in Europe in the [-]th century, leaving a bit of vicissitudes of elegance, as if it is obsessed with the past and refuses to bow to the modern.But after all, the age is long, and the equipment is also a bit old. Due to the growing depression in recent years, it has become more and more difficult to maintain.In the end, the hotel had to close all the guest rooms in the west wing and only open the east wing.

Due to the relatively remote location, most of the hotel's service staff are from nearby towns, and Chinese waiters like Chu Yang are becoming increasingly rare.Fortunately, he went to university in Vancouver before, and he speaks good English, otherwise he would be easily excluded by his colleagues unconsciously.And he is cautious and steady, practical and effective, so he was quickly recognized by the manager and accepted by other colleagues.

The work of room service is not difficult for him. He is mainly responsible for cleaning the rooms and corridors on the third or fourth floors, delivering items requested by guests, providing information on hotels or nearby attractions and restaurants that guests need, or satisfying any guests. reasonable requests made.However, the hotel's definition of "reasonable" is relatively broad, so Chu Yang's understanding of this article is: anyway, as long as he is not required to sell himself or break the law, he must try his best to satisfy any request made by the guest.

Although the work content is relatively boring, but because he can enter the rooms of different guests, he has also seen... strange things a few times.

The room of Tirosa Hotel is also in retro style, with light blue floral wallpaper on the wall and gray carpet on the floor. Generally, after entering the door, the left side of the entrance is the bathroom, the right side is the cloakroom, and then enter the room You can see two double beds or a KingSize bed, and there are two armchairs with cat legs and a small round table near the window or balcony.Facing the bed, there are chestnut wardrobe, TV cabinet, small refrigerator and writing desk.There is a coffee machine on the refrigerator, and a retro desk lamp with a green strip-shaped lampshade on the desk.

Less than a month after the start of work, one day Chu Yang entered a big bed room with a "clean immediately" sign, and was dumbfounded as soon as he entered the door.

I saw red blood-like things all over the bed, and many lumpy, fleshy and viscous things scattered everywhere, reminiscent of internal organs or raw meat.There is also a certain stench in the air, which seems to be the smell of pork stalls in the vegetable market.Chu Yang's face turned pale when he glanced at it, and his stomach felt acid regurgitation, but he still carefully dipped a little red with his gloved hand, brought it to his nose and smelled it, and he was sure it was the smell of blood.

I just don't know if it's human blood.

So he took off his cleaning gloves, called the manager on the walkie-talkie, and took out a few photos of the scene with his cell phone, which he had secretly carried with him.The manager rushed to the scene within 5 minutes and looked around with a pale face.

Chu Yang asked calmly, "Do you want to call the police?"

But the manager immediately said resolutely, "No."

Chu Yang stared blankly, thinking that if this is a case of murder and dismemberment?

The manager seemed to know what he was thinking, and explained with a weird look, "It's not that I want to cover up something, but... this room was not occupied at all yesterday."

Chu Yang became more and more confused, "No one lives here? But I saw a sign on the door..."

The manager hesitated for a while, then suddenly stretched out his hand and closed the door.Just when Chu Yang didn't understand, she opened the door again.

Chu Yang opened his mouth slightly, blinked his eyes vigorously, and even rubbed his eyelids with his hands, wondering if there was something wrong with his contact lenses.

The room was clean, as if no one had ever lived there, let alone bloodstains and pieces of meat...

"Whatthe..." Chu Yang couldn't help asking, "Can you do magic?"

The manager Anna couldn't hold back a low laugh, but quickly said seriously, "Our hotel is very old, and sometimes... there will be some strange things. You don't need to pay attention to them, just turn around and don't look at them. That's fine. They'll disappear by themselves if no one's looking."

Chu Yang was full of question marks all over his face, and felt that his three views were about to collapse, "What? What happened just now? I didn't take drugs or drink, am I crazy?"

Anna seemed to have a headache and pressed her forehead with the palm of her hand, "I can't explain it clearly for a while, it's not your problem...you may encounter such things in the future. Just as I said, when They don't exist, just turn around and don't look at them, or close the door and it will be fine. Also, don't talk about these things." After finishing speaking, she didn't give Chu Yang a chance to ask questions, and gave them in advance He took a lunch break and drove him away from that floor.

Chu Yang still remembered that the house number of that room was 325.

In short, this was the first time Chu Yang came into contact with the other side of the Tirosa Hotel.The manager didn't lie to him, and he did see strange things a few more times after that.

Once when he was cleaning the corridor, he found an old lady at the end of the corridor on the second floor standing upright in an old and worn-out lace pajamas. There were brown-red marks on the pajamas, which looked as dirty as if they had just been dug out of a pit. , with gray hair, a pair of empty eyes staring straight at him, the eyelids have not even blinked for a long time.His hairs stood on end, and he was afraid that the other party was an old man who was lost in some room and could not find his way, so he walked over and wanted to ask the other party if he wanted to help, but after walking a few steps, there was a sudden sound of footsteps, and when he looked back, it turned out to be A young couple came out of the elevator talking and laughing.He turned back, only to find that the old lady was gone.

Another time, when he opened the door of the room, what he saw was an abandoned house that seemed to have been abandoned for an unknown number of years. The wallpaper was peeling off, large black mold and water stains spread on the walls, and the carpet was rotten. It was ugly, and there was something dark green and wet.And outside the window is no longer the Rosemary Lake he is familiar with, but a dark red sky that is heavy and oppressive, almost fleshy, and even... that sky seems to be fluctuating regularly?

A strong evil spirit rushed towards him, and he heard a terrifying scream from nowhere.Shocked, he quickly closed the door according to what the manager said. He was still in shock and calmed down for a while before hesitating to open the door again.

In an ordinary standard room, there are guests' unpacked suitcases on the floor, and the two beds are in a mess that just slept in and is waiting to be tidied up.

He inquired with another doorman named Owen who had a better relationship with him, and asked him if he had seen anything strange.After hearing this, Owen's expression changed drastically. He put down the half-eaten taco and turned his head to look around.Chu Yang rolled his eyes, "Okay, why don't you go to Hollywood to develop after so many dramas..."

Owen chuckled twice, "The manager won't let me say it, for fear of being heard by the guests."

"So you've seen it too?"

"Those who have worked here for more than three years have seen it once or twice. But you have seen so many times in less than two months, which is really strange."

Chu Yang frowned and thought, "The manager said that if you see it, turn around and don't look at it, or close the door, and it's fine if they don't exist... What are those things? Why did they appear in the hotel?"

Owen shrugged, "There are many theories. Sarah at the front desk thinks that because the hotel is too old, there are grievances."

Chu Yang sneered, "Have you seen too much Shining?"

However, their hotel has some similarities with the Yuanwang Hotel in The Shining. For example, they are both old and relatively remote, and there are few people in winter.It's just that their hotel is not built on the cemetery of any Indian tribe.

"Those cleaners believe that our hotel is cursed, it is the gate of hell or something." Owen continued, "As for our manager, I think it may be a problem with the magnetic field. Understand? It's something that happened before that was closed for some reason. It’s recorded in the building, just like a video tape. It seems that scientific exploration has performed similar things, for example, in a certain place in China, you can hear the sound of the ancient battlefield when it rains heavily, isn’t it?”

I didn't expect the Yunnan Shocking Manger to be so famous... Chu Yang pondered for a while, then shook his head, "It's not a video...sometimes what I see...doesn't feel like it's from the earth..."

"Not from Earth? What do you mean?"

"I can't describe it... You said that some people think it's the gate of hell... I think this guess is a bit reliable." Chu Yang murmured.

Owen suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "Have you ever gone in?"

Chu Yang thought for a while, then nodded, "I only went in a few steps."

"Don't go in..." Owen stared at him seriously, "I heard that your ex just disappeared in the hotel for no reason. They all said that he might have just gone in and couldn't get out."

Trapped forever in a chaotic and terrifying world... It makes the hair stand on end just thinking about it...

Chu Yang looked at the beef sandwich in his hand and suddenly lost his appetite.

Fast forward a year, and November brings with it a howling cold wind, bringing the first snowfall of the year.This is Chu Yang’s first winter at the Tirosa Hotel. The hotel is cooler than in summer, but there are still many city people who like to be quiet to soak in the hot springs, ski on the lake, or It's sitting in a warm hotel lobby with a fire and drinking.

It was in this season that Chu Jiang met Lin Qi—in his words, a "net celebrity" who pretended to be a ghost.

The author has something to say: After reading the comments in more than 30 chapters, I realized that Xiao Gong Lynch’s name was used by the author in another novel. I would like to declare here that the duplicate name is just a coincidence. After all, this name is indeed quite different. public.I chose this name because a director I like is called David Lynch, so I used his last name as my full name.The protagonists of the two articles have nothing to do with each other, please try not to jump into the scene_(:з」∠)_...

The hotel description in this unit refers to hotels such as the Grand Budapest Hotel and The Shining. The Tirosa Hotel is purely fictitious, but there are references to some local hotel layouts such as Harrison Hotel, Sparkling Hill Hotel and Lake Louise Hotel. However, these three real hotels are different. Oh haunted.
