The Haunting Tale of Room 304
The reason why hospitals will always scare me.
A friend of mine was spending the night at a hospital taking care of a relative. It was around 1 am when my friend suddenly woke up to loud screaming. He quickly looked at his relative, fearing the worst, but the screams were coming from outside his room.
He went and opened the door and saw nurses running towards another hospital room.
My friend was curious, so he stepped outside his hospital room and made his way to the room where the screams were coming from.
As he entered the room, he saw an old man looking right at the door (where my friend was now standing) and screaming, "Tell them to go away; don’t take me; move away from there; somebody help me!”
The nurses looked at the door, saw my friend standing there,, and asked him to leave immediately. However, my friend was not the reason for the commotion; the patient continued to scream as my friend made his way back to his hospital room.
The screams died down a few moments later.
My friend was curious, so he made his way out of the room again and got talking to one of the nurses.
He asked her about the old man, and she said he didn’t have a family to stay the night with him. He just had surgery, probably had a panic…
