City Bus Driver

On a weekend night, with the city’s pulse shifting into a darker rhythm, one passenger’s frantic journey was a race against more than just time. His curfew, a fragile line between freedom and a world of consequences, was at risk of snapping. As the minutes ticked down and delays mounted, the pressure grew unbearable. What was he running from? What would happen if he didn’t make it in time? This wasn’t just another late-night ride; this was a life on the edge. Racing the Devil: A Passenger on the Brink The city at night has a different pulse. A darker one. The weekend crowd slouches in doorways, spilling laughter and smoke, while others slip through the cracks, moving with a different kind of urgency. I’d seen them all before, the night owls, the restless, the ones with too much time and the ones with none at all. Then there was him. Sat near the front, shifting in his seat like he had ants in his veins. A walking red flag, the kind you clock early. Sharp jaw, darting eyes, that restles...

I, your humble narrator and bus driver, was about to have my routine shattered by a darkness so profound it could only be born from a nightmarish reverie. There I was, steering my bus towards the stop, expecting the usual smattering of passengers. But no, today was different. The stop, usually home to a few hapless souls, had become a writhing mass of humanity. Teenagers with backpacks, women struggling under the weight of their consumerist sins, and businessmen tapping their watches with frantic zeal, as if their impatience might bend time to their will. I braced myself, ready for the usual dance of bodies and bitter sighs. B...

There’s something lurking in the shadows, reminiscent of a chilling Halloween night. I sense it with every creak of the floorboard and every whisper of the wind. Tickets. Everywhere. Tickets.

This Is Halloween Behind the Lyrics: The Haunting Inspirations of 'This Is Halloween' and why 'This Is Halloween' Became a Cult Anthem Beyond the Movie. The Original "This Is Halloween" is a beloved song from the 1993 stop-motion animated film The Nightmare Before Christmas , produced by Tim Burton and directed by Henry Selick.

Ballet  Autumn's Hidden Toll: Squirrels vs. Buses in a Season of Roadkill Ah, autumn—the season that somehow manages to be both a picturesque dream and a heartless joke. While the world dons its fiery cloak of reds and golds, I find myself at the epicentre of a macabre ballet, where the innocent scamper for survival, and the monstrous machinery of the city reaps its grim harvest. Welcome to my personal nightmare, where every squirrel’s desperate leap is a punchline to the cruelest joke nature has ever concocted. Let’s start with our pint-sized protagonists: the squirrels. They’re the quintessential symbols of autumn’s urgency, their tiny hearts racing in a frenetic, almost hysterical dash for acorns. They zigzag across roads as if each nut might be their last, their little eyes wide with a mix of panic and determination. It’s almost endearing—if not for the fact that their adorable, twitchy chaos is about to run headlong into a far more brutal reality. Enter the buses, those lumber...

The Fever Dream Begins The job was supposed to be simple: drive Route 101 through the city, pick up the passengers, and drop them off. But this summer, the city has changed. Or maybe it’s you. The first sign was subtle—the passengers who stepped onto your bus seemed… wrong. Their faces blurred in the rearview mirror, their voices echoing unnervingly in your head. Some would sit in silence, their eyes fixed on you like hollow ...
