A Mysterious Box Washed Up on Shore — What Was Inside Left Everyone Speechless! (2 of 2)

I leaned closer, squinting against the glare of the sun. At first, I thought they were fish. Then I realized one jar contained something that looked like a curled hand. Another… I could’ve sworn it was an eye, pale and unblinking, drifting against the glass.

Someone behind me whispered, “Oh my God.” Another person gasped. A child began to cry, and his mother hurried him away. My stomach turned to stone.

The police came soon after, taping off the scene and waving us back. They said nothing, only lifted the jars carefully into evidence bags. We were told to go home, to “let the experts handle it.”

I walked back to my car barefoot, the wet sand sticking to my feet, my coffee long since spilled. The sun was shining now, tourists laying out towels as if nothing had happened. But I couldn’t stop replaying the sight of that box, of what floated inside those cloudy jars.

And the worst part? As I drove away, I kept wondering: if the sea has carried one box to shore… how many more are still drifting out there, waiting to surface?
