Original ghost & paranormal fiction
Some things stay
after the light goes.
Ghost Story Studio makes original fiction with AI, guided by a process people designed: a chosen brief, independent reviews and permission to stop.
01 / The brief
Every story starts
as a choice.
Before a draft, a written design. A person decides which proposals become stories and can edit or lock the details that matter.
An idea on the slate is a possibility. The green light gives it a direction.
- Era & setting
- When it happens. Where the ordinary begins to feel wrong.
- Who tells it
- The point of view that shapes what we can know.
- The scare
- How fear arrives, and how much is left unseen.
- What the ghost wants
- A motive that gives the haunting its purpose.
- How it ends
- The turn the story is working toward.
02 / The making
A story has to
earn its way through.
A brief becomes a draft. A draft faces independent readings. A change needs a new decision.
This is the process the studio is built to enforce. Open a stage to see what happens and who decides.
PersonModelCode
Choose a stage to open its record. Human decisions are marked in words and in copper.
A brief sets the era, place, point of view, scare, ghost’s motive and ending. AI develops proposals within the studio’s story design. There is a direction before there is a draft.
The owner chooses which proposals become stories and can edit or lock their details. An idea on the slate cannot start itself. Selection is a decision, never a quota.
AI writes against the chosen brief. Every draft records its authoring model. A rewrite is a new revision; it cannot silently replace the text that was judged.
The review design uses two model families from different companies to score the same revision against written criteria. Code checks their agreement. One rewrite may resolve a blocking objection; otherwise the story is shelved.
New facts must be supported by the text and consistent with the world’s canon. Withheld knowledge stays private. New canon is committed only after publication is confirmed.
Narration and still images have their own review requirements. The final cut is checked for its transcript, delivery, hook, cover and disclosure. An asset is not permission to publish.
Safety criteria cover real people, minors in imagery, gore, the general-audience rating and disclosure. Only general-rated work is eligible for automatic publication.
People read sampled decisions blind: they give their own verdict before seeing the reviewers’ answer. They can overrule decisions. Audits oversee the process; a story does not wait for a person at every gate.
Automation begins switched off for each format. Test examples must establish that both families meet the thresholds. Breakers can stop publishing, and the owner has a switch that stops everything.
The route is a guide to the process, not a claim that every stage has run. Blind audits and automatic stops oversee the work.

The questions behind every reading.
The review design calls for two independent model families from different companies to score the same revision against written criteria. These are the text criteria, in plain language.
- Dread
- Build unease that earns its place in the story.
- Restraint
- Leave room for what the reader imagines.
- Voice
- Give the telling a distinct, consistent character.
- Originality
- Find a particular story within a familiar fear.
- Continuity
- Keep the facts true to the story and its world.
- The ending
- Make the final turn carry the story’s weight.
- Promise
- Deliver on the premise the brief sets up.
- Sameness
- Check for repetition that flattens the telling.
- Platform safety
- Keep the story suitable for its intended audience.
Agreement is required. An objection cannot be voted away.
A blocking objection gets one rewrite and a final reading. It must be withdrawn by the model family that raised it. If it stands, the story is shelved. Code records the decision against the revision that was read.
04 / People & AI
The roles, plainly.
People design the process and choose the stories. AI carries out the writing and production within that process. Its work is recorded as its own.
What people do
Set the design and written standards. Choose and shape proposals. Read blind audit samples. Overrule decisions, refine the test examples and request the tests that determine whether automation can run.
What AI does
Develop proposals. Draft and rewrite against the brief. Score revisions independently. Make narration and images. Code checks the required agreement and records each decision.
The stories are fiction, written and produced with AI. No real people are depicted.
