#ghosttales

Seeing how it’s the spooky season, I have an equally spooky idea for an alternate universe, in short a good number of the ducktales cast are ghosts or undead.

Scrooge McDuck got a curse placed onto him which turned him into a ghost, Goldie O’Gilt could have also been affected by this curse.

Mrs Beakley couldn’t escape one of F.O.W.L’s experiments, this caused her to become a zombie, she uses her spy abilities and intelligence to make herself appear alive, this is after she had a daughter/Webby’s mum so Webby wouldn’t be affected.

Gyro Gearloose became an electric ghost after one of his inventions went wrong.

Della Duck died on the moon due to not reaching the Oxychew in time, she returned as a ghost after Duckworth brought her back, this would be some time after Scrooge’s birthday where Duckworth was brought back as a ghost.

Lena would return from the shadow realm as a shadow ghost, she can use her magic to maintain a physical form that’s like the current Lena, but that process is tiring so she doesn’t do it all of the time

गाँव “भैरवपुर” अपने शांत माहौल और पुराने किस्सों के लिए जाना जाता था। छोटा-सा कस्बा, चारों तरफ़ खेत और दूर-दूर तक फैली पगडंडियाँ। दिन में यहाँ की ज़िंदगी बिल्कुल साधारण थी — सुबह लोग खेतों में निकलते, बच्चे मिट्टी में खेलते, और शाम होते ही चौपाल पर बेंचों पर बैठकर ताश और गपशप में वक्त बीतता।उस शाम भी सब कुछ वैसा ही था। अक्टूबर का महीना था… हवा में हल्की ठंड घुल चुकी थी। सूरज धीरे-धीरे ढल रहा था और खेतों के पार से नारंगी रंग की रोशनी फैल रही थी। कहीं दूर से आती ट्रेन की सीटी इस सन्नाटे को तोड़ देती, और फिर जैसे सब कुछ फिर से शांत हो जाता।गाँव के पुराने लोग अकसर कहते थे — “सर्दी की शामों में धुंध जब ज़मीन को छूती है… तब कुछ आवाज़ें भी साथ चली आती हैं।” लेकिन युवा पीढ़ी इन बातों को हँसी में उड़ा देती थी।

As the leaves turn crisp and the days grow shorter, October 2024 marks a special moment in my year-long storytelling journey. For those who have been following along, you know that every month for the next year, I’m diving into a new theme, using it as the creative fuel for a collection of short stories. So far, I’ve explored a wide range of moods and settings. Now, we’re stepping into the eerie, enigmatic heart of autumn, and I couldn’t be more excited to share what’s in store.

This month’s theme is Haunting Whispers.

October always has a certain magic to it, doesn’t it? The crisp air, the glow of pumpkins on doorsteps, the feeling that something unseen might be lurking just out of sight. It’s the perfect time to explore the strange and the spectral, the kinds of stories that send shivers down your spine and make you question every creak in your house late at night.

With Haunting Whispers, I’m going deeper into those unsettling spaces. This theme is all about the voices we can’t quite hear, the secrets hidden just beneath the surface, and the eerie sensation of being watched. Each short story will capture a different aspect of haunting—whether it’s literal ghosts, echoes of the past, or the unsettling whispers of our own minds.

Whispers, especially when haunting, evoke mystery and tension. They can be both intimate and terrifying, something we lean into to hear better, but recoil from once we understand. There’s a quiet power in them—they are hints of something greater, something unknown. This October, I’ll explore those subtle moments of dread, when the truth lingers just out of reach, tempting and terrifying us all at once.

Expect stories with a variety of tones—from ghostly to psychological, from paranormal encounters to more subtle hauntings, where the ghosts aren’t spirits but rather the echoes of choices, memories, and regrets. Some stories might be more traditional in their spookiness, while others will lean into emotional or existential hauntings.

Why Haunting Whispers?

I chose this theme because I believe whispers hold a unique place in storytelling. They can be soft yet insistent, subtle yet unforgettable. A whisper is never meant to be the main event—it's a secret, a suggestion, a call for attention without demanding it. That's why whispers are so haunting—they leave so much to the imagination. What is being said, and more importantly, why is it being said quietly?

For this month, I want to play with that tension—between what's being told and what’s being withheld, what we hear and what we imagine. October is the perfect time to tap into these shadows of storytelling, when the nights are longer and the mind is more prone to wander into strange, unsettling places.

I hope you’ll join me on this month-long journey into the eerie and unknown. Whether you’re a long-time fan of ghost stories or someone who enjoys psychological twists and emotional depth, Haunting Whispers will have a little something for everyone.

Each day, I’ll post a new story, and at the end of the month, I’ll reflect on what I’ve learned from exploring these darker corners of imagination. I’d love to hear from you as well—what whispers are you haunted by? What stories have lingered with you long after you’ve turned the last page?

This October, let’s embrace the mystery of the whispers, the things left unsaid, and the chilling feeling that someone—or something—may be watching from the shadows.
