The Nightmare that is Hotel K.





Located in the Kerobokan, Badung Regency of Bali is the Kerobokan Prison also known as Hotel K. The corrupt, disgusting prison hold’s captive inmates from all forms of live. You have Western tourists who where unfortunate to get caught with a small bag of weed in there surf board case sharing cells with mass murderers and rapists.


There are some quite well known inmates that have served some time in this disgusting building full of drug abuse, sexual abuse and violence. Even Ronnie Ramsay the brother of British celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay’s had spent time festering in this Indonesian hell hole for being caught with heroin in his possession.


On this morning though Hotel K has a new inmate by the name of Eric Morales, the other inmates didn’t notice the guards sneak him in during the night but they are all aware of him now slumped unconscious on the floor of a recently vacated cell. Even some of the guards had a confused look on their face when they notice Eric, they hadn’t bought him in and there was no new arrival scheduled on the rotor, all though with the organisation being like it is in the steaming disgusting pit there is every chance that it wasn’t booked on.


One of the guards eases closer to the unconscious Morales with a cattle prod in his hand, as he approaches he notices a piece of paper staples to the new inmates shirt. The guard picked up the paper and began to read.


No matter what he offers you, there is no chance of parole, no chance of any day trips out and his life must be hell.


The guard smiled as he scrunched the paper up and dropped down onto the ground and in one swift movement jabbed the cattle prod into his new inmate’s ribs. Eric awoke and screamed in pain before quickly sliding himself away from his would be attacker.


Eric: Where the hell am I?


The guard answers his question but not in a language Eric can understand. The other inmates are now being ushered away from this open cell and out into the garden where Hotel K has a small clay tennis court set up.


Now the guard is left alone with Eric he again attacks the inmate with his cattle prod, Eric screams in pain again and collapses backwards against a wall before sliding down to the floor. Two more guards walk in and pick Eric up and drag his tortured body out of the cell and along the corridor and out into the garden.


His body is dragged by the two guards across the middle of the tennis court as all the other inmates are watching. The eventually reach their destination of the segregation tower, A tall circular tower that has two cells at the top which at some point in time housed the Bali Bombers. Now though, it will be home of Eric Morales, billionaire drug dealer and murderer.


As they reach the top of the tower the guards push Eric into his cell and his limp body slumps down onto the hard floor. From the garden below all the other inmates can hear Eric’s screams of agony as he is struck with the guard’s cattle prod once repeatedly over and over again. Each and every strike hurt more than the last. The other inmates in the garden continue to live on their normal lives as they had done every day that they had been in Hotel K, they were used to this treatment now. They had heard the screams of an abused prisoner so many times before it had now just become background noise.


Eventually the guards stopped and left Eric lying on the floor in a pool of his own urine as the vicious attacks with the cattle prod had left him unable to control his bladder. His eyes were closed and he was curled up into a ball praying for the pain to stop. He remained in this position until he heard the cell doors close and lock. He finally begins to try and move but the pain is so much that he lets out a scream as he slowly pulls himself up to his feet.


Looking out of his cell window he can see over the entire of Hotel K and further, which makes this entire experience even worse. He can see the freedom but he just can’t get there, he can even see the same beach he was laid on wh...


That’s when he remembers what happened to him before he woke up here in Hotel K. “What the fuck” he says to himself. I shouldn’t be here. I was being dragged into the sea. It can’t be, can it?



Nightmare: Your mind is not playing tricks on you Mr Morales.



Eric spins around quick after hearing the sound of this voice before finding himself face to face with the same masked man he had seen on the beach. He backs himself up against the wall of the cell and begins to shout out of the window for help.



Nightmare: There is no use in that Mr. Morales, nobody can hear you.


Nightmare takes a step closer.


Nightmare: Do you know why you are hear?



Eric shakes his head as a few tears for in the corner of his eyes and Nightmare takes another step closer so they are almost nose to nose.



Nightmare: I will tell you Mr. Morales. It is because you must be punished for all of your sins. You must stand face to face with your Nightmare and suffer it for all the lives that were lost at your hands and the many they were lost at your wish.


Stan Harding, 24, Deceased.

Jeff Cornbury, 18, Deceased.

Kyle Mason, 22, Deceased

Stuart MacDonald, 26, Deceased.

Ezequel Chamberlin, 20 Deceased.


Do you know who these people are?

They are the names of just a few of your team members who you ruthlessly double crossed and murdered without any hesitation, and all for your own gain, for money.


For each life lost at your hands you will spend a year in this cell, you will not have contact with anyone, in fact nobody will know you are even here, on the outside world you are already dead. The only contact you will have is with the guards who have been looking after you so far.


You will pay the prise and you will be fixed and then my job will be complete.



There is a roar of thunder and flash of lighting and then Nightmare is gone and Eric is left all alone, he falls too his knees and says a prayer, but it will be no good. Now he belongs to Hotel K.



The End


2 years later



Former drug trafficker Eric Morales has been found dead of an apparent drug overdose in a cell in the Bali's notorious prison known as Hotel Kerobokan. This story is sprinkled with unusualness as Morales was believed to have died in a fishing boat accident two years previously.

So how did the drug trafficker end up in Hotel K. Other inmates claim he just appeared at some point during the night, other believe he was put there by a masked creature of the night.

Please do not worry about the later, with drug use being as high as it is in Hotel K I am sure this was some inmates drug induced coma.

A strange story I'm sure you will agree.

Will we ever get to the bottom of what happened to Eric Morales.
