Awakening was written by Pete Gardner for the 2009 Saugus.net Halloween Ghost Story Contest. It tied with The Lighthouse for first place. The contest page has this short introduction:

Awakening on the ground next to an open grave, you have no recollection of how you came to be there. Do you investigate the nearby church and graveyard, or leave well enough alone?

How it begins

A torrential downpour awakens you in a graveyard with no memory of how you got there. Guided by your odd compulsions and intense thirst, you try to learn about your situation.
