OMG
These Mini Horror Stories Are More Terrifying Than Any Film – Keep The Lights On
By |
Whether in a movie or in a YouTube video, horror is born in the brief few seconds between when the audience starts expecting one thing, and ends up getting something much more sinister in return.
That”s exactly what happens in these spooky, two-sentence horror stories. You”ll be surprised at just how powerful and terrifying a handful of words can be.
“The grinning face stared at me from the darkness beyond my bedroom window. I live on the 14th floor.”
“I woke up to hear knocking on glass. At first, I thought it was the window…until I heard it come from the mirror again.”
“My daughter won”t stop crying and screaming in the middle of the night. I visit her grave and ask her to stop, but it doesn”t help.”
“I just saw my reflection blink.”
“You start to drift off into a comfortable sleep when you hear your name being whispered. You live alone.”
“There was a picture in my phone of me sleeping. I live alone.”
“In all of the time that I”ve lived alone in this house, I swear to God I”ve closed more doors than I”ve opened.”
“They celebrated the first successful cryogenic freezing. He had no way of letting them know he was still conscious.”
“I kiss my wife and daughter goodnight before I go to sleep. When I wake up, I”m in a padded room and the nurses tell me it was just a dream.”
“I always thought my cat had a staring problem. She always seemed fixated on my face. Until one day, when I realized that she was always looking just behind me.”
“My sister says that Mommy killed her. Mommy says that I don”t have a sister.”
“I can”t move, breathe, speak, or hear…and it”s so dark all the time. If I knew it would be this lonely, I would have been cremated instead.”
“I never go to sleep. But I keep waking up.”
“The funeral attendees never came out of the catacombs. Something locked the crypt door from the inside.”
“You hear your mom calling you into the kitchen. As you are heading down the stairs, you hear a whisper from the closet saying, “Don”t go down there, honey. I heard it too.””
“You get home, tired after a long day”s work and ready for a relaxing night alone. You reach for the light switch, but another hand is already there.”
“My wife woke me up last night to tell me there was an intruder in our house. She was murdered by an intruder 2 years ago.”
“The last man on Earth sat alone in a room. There was a knock at the door.”
“Working the night shift alone tonight. There is a face in the cellar staring at the security camera.”
“”I can”t sleep,” she whispered, crawling into bed with me. I woke up cold, clutching the dress she was buried in.”
“The last thing I saw was my alarm clock flashing 12:07 before she pushed her long, rotting nails through my chest, her other hand muffling my screams. I sat bolt upright, relieved it was only a dream. But as I saw my alarm clock read 12:06, I heard my closet door creak open.”
“While lying in bed trying to go to sleep, I heard my dog scratching my bedroom door. As I got up to let her in, I found her sleeping at the side of the bed.”
I think the reason these super-short stories are so scary is the same reason the shark from Jaws was so scary: the less you see of the monster, the more the mind fills in the gaps with fear. Sorry, Stephen King, we have a more efficient way to get our thrills now.
