👻 Episode 2: A Spirit on the Move. Whispers from the Other Side .

By Grace Antiedu & Nana Ama Acheampomaa

By the second week after Akyale’s burial, the atmosphere in Middle Farm had changed. Children walked in pairs, even in daylight. Mothers held their little ones tighter. And the school where Akyale once sat became the center of fear.

It started with a scream—one of the pupils saw her.

“She stood by the classroom window,” the girl said, trembling. “She didn’t blink. Just stared”.

Another boy claimed to see her in the hallway, blocking his path. Others heard her name whispered in the toilets when no one else was around. Teachers tried to dismiss it as imagination. But the fear was real. Even staff avoided the school grounds after closing.

One afternoon, a group of pupils was playing when a gust of cold wind blew across the yard. There was no rain, no storm -just a chill. They all stopped and looked toward the far gate. A figure in a pale cloth stood there, watching silently before vanishing into thin air.

It was Akyale’s burial cloth.

By now, the talk was everywhere. “Akyale’s ghost is not at rest.”

“She’s trying to get back at whoever killed her.”

“But she can’t.”

The stories all pointed to the same thing: her spirit was angry and powerless. Whoever ended her life had protection -spiritual strength beyond hers. So she did what she could; haunt the living, instill fear, and make her presence known.

But haunting wasn’t enough.

Soon, her spirit would come face-to-face with someone unprepared, someone alone, and someone too young to understand the world of the dead.

His name was Achuor.

And his story would begin in the silence before dawn.
