Thanks to everyone for bringing it to life! ♥️😌
Great work!
Al iniciar el short estando el chico sentado en la silla, no enfocaria todo el paradero sino solo captaria sus expresiones y los dialogos iniciales. Para que el short no evidencie lo "paranormal" de la trama de manera inmediata, para que despues empiece el dialogo con la chica y se vaya desarrollando ...jejeje pero de.todas formas me gusto mucho el short. excelentes actores..
Hey, if you see this, how much did you intend the story to be taken literally, versus a metaphor? Good short story!
reallly impressed! I act in horror movies n this was spot on!!
The bus driver seemed awfully calm for someone who almost drove over a person. In fact he looked like he didnt give a shit.
😂👍
That's how you know he was an authentic gravenight shift bus driver.
He's seen some shit
If he didn't care he wouldn't wait until he gets inside the bus. Their patience is 5 seconds at most.
I believe it was a paranormal event, and when he got up, it merged into reality. 👍🏻
A horror film where the protagonist survives? That's rare, these days.
Also, this was delightfully cerebral, instead of relying on jump scares.
Thank you for your feedback and for watching, much appreciated!! 😌
Thank you 🙏
Thanks for telling me The End, now I don't need to watch it.
Rare? In every film the protagonist survives, the supporting actors usually die.
What I particularly liked about this video is that beyond its «horrific» aspect, it offers us, through the speech of the ghost of the girl who mysteriously appears next to the young man waiting for the bus, a message of courage, of resilience and hope in life. What she tells the young man is that we must never give up in the face of adversity and that life is worth living, despite all the hardships it inflicts on us. In short, she encourages him not to commit the irreparable as she did, throwing herself in front of the bus several years ago, out of despair.
The boys IS dead. She is a Ghost who kill the two others people of the bus stop)
@@depassage2698 How can the boy be dead when we hear him ringing his mother in the end credits?, plus the bus driver spoke to him.
@@gemstar7286 just a illusion. I put a comment to explain my point of view. The ending is like a dream. The girl died before all the others Ghosts. You Can see the year of death. Someone push her (that's why she said) and look at the two ghosts : they try to warm him but she always distract his attention from the others. Lot of clues
@@depassage2698I believe he survives, and the ghost helped him find strength to persevere in life.
@@depassage2698 This is actually a really interesting take! The way I thought about it was when she said "My friends pushed me" I thought it meant that her friends pushed her to end it all because they mistreated her. I thought the other 2 ghosts were people who committed suicide in the same way. They went there at their lowest moment in life to end it all, and like she told this guy that he was a failure, she said the same to the other people at a moment when they already felt that way, so she metaphorically "pushed them" to commit suicide. Regardless, it's dark. Loved reading your perspective!
As someone who almost jumped into a lake to end it all, almost 6 years ago, this hit hard. I’m glad I’m not currently haunting that particular lake at my uni.
Thank you for watching and please take care! Wish you all the best! ♥️
You should have jumped in the lake.😅
Glad you're still with us. I lost my brother to suicide in 2001 he was Bi polar and I think it just got too much for him. It's the ones that are left behind that still feel pain . Your family would have suffered for the rest of their lives. Here you are 6 years later able to share an experience like this horror film with other fans around the world
Thank you so much for sharing this, I’m glad that this film opens up a conversation about suicide and that people are able to share their stories to support each other. Wishing you all the the best ♥️
I’m glad you’re still here, and I’m glad I’m still here to tell you that. I swallowed a handful of pills last February, and was disappointed and furious when I woke up. I am better now, and I’m glad I did.
I’m glad you chose to go on. It is the ones around who we leave behind who would suffer.
That voice is a liar. You aren’t a burden, you aren’t a disappointment. Someone loves, or will love you. You. Are. Worthy.
💖🌸💖
Really enjoyed the fact that this film is not like other cliche horror films with jump scares and monsters. You really need to watch it twice or more to see all hints and double meanings in dialogues. It’s deeper than it seems:) Great actors, great director and a crew 👏🏻 bravo
Thank you so much for your feedback and for watching! Means a lot! ♥️
the way the girl was actually something more than I expected. Thankfully the boy survived
A horror story with a positive ending is really refreshing. And using the "epilogue" voiceover at the end to punctuate that is brilliant. What's also notable is that it didn't need to advertise itself as an "Award Winning Horror Story" as so many others do. In fact, that's very much in keeping with the quiet, understated feeling of the film itself. Well done! Please make more like this!
I got rejected from uni of my dreams a while back and I know exactly how it feels when you are a teenager and everything is pressing on you and you pretty much feel like your life is over :/ I’m glad there is an ending where he survived and come back to him mum and tells her he loves her so it shows that he started to appreciate his family. Film itself is great, scary, intense, deep, love dialogues and music! Amazing work!
Thank you so much for the kind words! It means so much to us that our story resonated with you!🙏
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it! ❤
"You're really just gonna leave a lady alone at a haunted bus stop?!"
- "Yes i am! Better one of us than both. Peace!"
*Runs full speed as far away as possible*
The way she said ‘die’ just gave me the chills
Nice to see a story about a Ghost whois trying to help albeit in her own frightening way. Enjoyable film, mate.
Thank you, much appreciated! ☺️
I honestly love that this had a good ending. Got kinda tired of people dying at the end of horror films
I've had some creepy encounters at bus stops but if this happened I would never ride a bus again.
For a horror film this one played out so beautifully and had a sense of calm all around- loved the use of diffusion filter to create that dreamy vibe. Great work !
Thank you very much! 🙏 Love your short horrors)
Loved this! Like a classic, Victorian ghost story modernized to today. Well-acted, great atmosphere. Impressive.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you! ♥️
Nothing Victorian about this movie AT ALL😂😂😂
what dym victorian ghost story?
@@wioi Check out "Whistle and I'll Come to You" by MR James. Although I guess it's more Edwardian.
Genuinely scary, but with a surprisingly wholesome ending. WELL-Done! :)
This story was more creepy than scary. I love not knowing what's going to happen next. It's very suspenseful. Love it...
Nice story. It was predictable that the girl just appeared is a ghost. Kids can be really cruel. I have been pushed down the stairs at school because everyone hated me. Somewhat it reminds me of that... The feeling when someone is pushing you like that is just terrible.
I’m so sorry u went through that sounds so wrong and underserved
@@zahratariq4461 thanks. I have skipped the school because of bullying. I tried to kill myself in many ways but i failed. Now im about 30 yo. and i have nobody to trust except my parents and my pet bird. I have nothing. No friends no husband or kids, nothing... sometimes i think that's even better than having a lot of fake friends who talk shit about me when im not with them. and the reason i am still alive is because my mom and my bird loves me . and i don't want to hurt them. 🙂
You sound genuinely wholesome and real, don’t take this the wrong way but, whereas I agree with it’s better to be alone then be with fake friends, it’s messy having people in your life, I live alone as well I have absolutely no one in my life, it’s peaceful but sometimes miss companionship, anyway I hope you read this and find some clarity. You are not alone, ❤
@ALIENIGHTMARE you're a beautiful soul and you've earned a sub for your channel.
And know this - it may not be much, but I believe in you!
@@ALIENIGHTMAREhi. I hope you recover from this all.. there are good people out there. But it’s hard to fine.
That is really a piece of art! Sends chills down the spine. Also it feels very lynchian. Awesome collaboration between driector, actors and everybody else involved in creating this art.
Thank you so much for kind words! Means a lot to me and my team! And thank you for watching! ♥️
What a great short horror film. This is one of the few that actually impacted me. The acting was phenomenal and the directing was very nice too. Can't wait to see more from you.
Wow, thank you so much for watching 🙏
This was excellent. I always love watching films set in one scene. It makes one sit with the characters as they hash out the layers of what is happening. It makes the climax that much more dramatic and profound.
When the bus finally came I was like “Hurry Up and get the Fu*k on then!”
Great short horror! Reminds me of another short horror about a haunted bus stop, I think it was called Last ride home.
Nice little film. Great acting. The only thing which would have upped its game is if the bus driver opened the door for the lad and said, "Room for one more!"
There's something about the night that strips away all the pretence and illusions we hide behind during the day
At night, we can be who we really are. In darkness we are revealed
Very true, night takes off our masks and reveals what is underneath 🎭
Thank you for watching! ☺️
Que bom que a legenda em português está liberada. A história do filme é boa e a atuação dos atores também
Grande parte da equipe deste projeto era de Portugal =)
Fascinating tale. The lead guy has a big future in acting if he gets the right opportunities.
This is such a great short. Had a pleasure working on it with you all!
Thank you for a great job! ♥️💪🏻
Thank you for the fantastic grade!
Great acting and directing. Been watching a bunch of short horror movies. Seems like this may have been the best. Great job
This is definitely one of the best horror short film out there. Keep up the great work.
Thank you 🙏

That was an excellent little horror film. Clicked on it by mistake but couldn't stop watching it! Many thanks for posting.
Good job guys! All of you, the crew, the cast - excellent effort!
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed!
Eu detesto ter que ficar num ponto de ônibus, numa rua vazia, depois das 10 da noite.
Da medo de assalto.
Assombração nem me assusta.
Aqui é Brasil.😅
It's perhaps the first horror film that made me cry. Wanting to end it is one of the wrongest and saddest choices you can make. Live.
Wow, for first time, someone survived ghost attack
Woow, creepy as hell...loved it!!! Cant wait for more.
I don't get it: A bullied ghost tells a potential suicider not to run anymore, tries to kill him at the same time and all at a sudden he s fine...?? What da heck
I have a feeling that he died at the end
I don't think she tried to kill him: she rather scared him, to the point he realized how wrong would it have been for him to commit suicide
@@mervisa89 I think he actually lived, because we can see him talking with the driver, getting on the bus and then calling his mom. The ghost lady frightened him and thus opened his eyes - as he said 'I am not running away anymore'.
When she was referring to her adopted parents...it seems she was talking about the other two ghosts. Was there a massive grave site near the bus stop? How did she die? Thank you for sharing.
Are you that daft? She said clearly that her friends pushed her in front of a bus. She’s a ghost and her adoptive parents are just people she wanted as her new parents whom she then killed so they’d haunt the bus stop with her
@@premiumaccount4166 You don't have to be so rude. The guy just asked a question. You'd make a terrible educator and parent...
Really well done!! Make more, we'll watch them all. 🤩
Thank you so much! ☺️♥️
Thoroughly creepy and powerful. Great food for thought
Super. I am really impressed how real this story is.
These two actors had some great amazing chemistry both with each other plus this is why I prefer to take the train and not the bus. Bus are to slow . Atleast trains are alot faster and don't stop at every corner like they do here in the states . The Bus is played out
Thank you for your feedback and for watching! Much appreciated! ☺️♥️
But trains can also be haunted, especially those dark and lonely subway stations.. you never know what is lurking in the corners, or watching you
😂😂
That's true trains can be haunted
@@jeffreyharnden7523 it seems you experience in these things…
Glad I found this today, sometimes you've just got to go with what the algorithm suggests!
Really well put together short film with the right amount of suspense and plenty of questions to be asked. Poppie Boyes does a great job too, a far cry from Norrie in Hey Duggee!
Shout out to Peter Pichnor. This shit looked beautiful.
Bus number 13….clever. I enjoyed that
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for watching 🙏
Thank you, much appreciated! 😌
You never know who you will meet at a bus stop.
Yeah very true! 😄 who knows what can happen in just 12 minutes while waiting for a bus 👻
Thank you for watching!
Great video! This film was so good, I genuinely enjoy this one
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed!
no problem.
permanently bust that light out. 😆for real, those two were a great actor and actress. ❤
Thank you! ☺️
Soooo why his mom didn’t just pick him up if she was so desperate😭😭😭😭
Maybe because the mother doesn't know where he at..considering he is running away...
What an incredible film 😮 need to see more asap!!!!
Thank you so much! ♥️
Very well done, I really enjoyed that.
Been to this point too because of my grades and family cracking down on me. That was almost a decade ago.. Now I have a good job and a girlfriend. Things truly work out over time.. Never give in to the suicidal thoughts because it's just a momentary darkness. Life is too long to stay in that moment, and so many things will come to you after the storm. It just takes time..
Fantastic. Awesome work.
Thank you!! ☺️
It's always a thrill to find short films of this quality. The acting, writingetc. Everything was fantastic. Thank YOU. :) @@zoracielleanri515
Bus driver: "You're lucky I only had 9 beers. Now get on."
That was good....thanks!
Loved this sooooo much!❤
Thank you for watching!
Cool, not bad, Team!
The symbolic things like the man standing there, the clock- you know, it Has something to mean with his fear or whatever his Problems are. It was in my eyes a little project to let the people remember, to learn to handle your Problems on a way, because time runs and so on...
This is a calm movie, because (in my Interpretation) with no much dynamic, much more horror on a ; what if you had those things on youre side, in youre head? Not even monster are there.
I also saw, that your life can be horror. The others are feeling it.
Of course, there is more you can analyse of this well done project!
Well, I also were a bit bored in the middle of the movie, cause there is not much happening. Well, this is what I meant! You wanted to have time for explaining this topic.
Go on guys! Like it!
nicee! Beautiful cinematography
Thank you 🙏
Showed it to my son, he loved it. Good luck with the film! 😊
Thank you very much ♥️
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for watching and the super thanks 🙏
@@HorrorTownFilms😅
When he was about to leave but then changed his mind, she had a little smirk.
It's not a "good ending" we think he is alive but he is not. the monster is the girl who uses the bus to kill people (with yellow eyes). on the tombstones, we can see the date of the death of the young girl: 1978. which implies that she died before the lady (2012) and certainly the old man:
Finally some signs:
- the two ghosts do not intervene. The boy sees them but the girl diverts his attention
- the old man shakes his head to the girl who diverts the attention of the boy
- she holds him back when he wants to leave
- she indicates that it is the tormented souls who die (she knows the rule because she kills)
- we see his true face at the end
- she explains that she has been pushed by a man girl under the bus (this IS why she haunts the bus stop now and kill Lost souls)
- she throws him under the bus
- the driver has a very quiet reaction ( a boy literally fall in front of his bus...)
in short, the end is like a dream but obviously, he is no longer alive at the end but a ghost who will be lost.
Good movie and good acting!
It's still unclear, but his call to his mother indicates he was able to go on with his life
This is amazing
Pov- When you're watching the most creepiest part and then the ad appears 😅

The ending gave me the same feeling as wehn I finally catch the bus back home at night. It's a weird mix of dopamine and satisfaction together with some "safety".
