#Story :

Amelia, a journalist fascinated by the mysterious lighthouse in a coastal town, sets out to uncover the truth behind its legend. Locals tell her about Edward, a devoted lighthouse keeper who lost his family to the sea but continued his lonely watch over the coast. On the night of the lighthouse’s mysterious monthly flicker, Amelia ventures inside and encounters Edward’s ghostly figure. She realizes he is trapped by his devotion and loneliness, still guarding the shore. With gentle words, she encourages him to find peace. Edward’s spirit fades away, leaving the lighthouse’s light to shine steadily, finally free of its haunted flicker.
