i only new of this story from browsing imgur, but i couldn't find it so i typed it from memory

The Dunollie in Broadford, Isle of Skye, is a dirty, dilapidated misery of a hotel; Our room, #225, had a filthy brown stain in the toilet bowl, only one bedside lamp that worked and a musty smell in the bathroom; The dining room serving staff were surly, ill-mannered and rigid about opening times; It is completely unacceptable for a male staff member to scream, 'only soup or salad, not both!' to tour members at the buffet, especially since the food itself at the Dunollie was a tasteless mass of boiled bits of undistinguishable matter. Finally, in contravention of fire regulations, the front door was locked overnight and could not be opened from either the inside or outside.

There was once a girl who claimed to see spirits, just for money, but she really couldn't, then, one day, she was at a bus stop, and a old lady asked to see her hand, to read it, because her soul looked worried, she read it and gasped "you are going to see something of great danger today." The girl ignored it, went home and went into the bathroom to take a shower, but there, sitting on the window sill in the bathroom, was a skeleton holding a red flower.

You can't just replace a period with a semicolon and call it a single sentence. The two clauses being connected with a semicolon should be related in some way.

I found this out when I was the only survivor of mine.

Jim walked into his apartment. As it turned out, it wasn't his apartment at all but rather a meat grinder; he was shredded to death.
