My House of Horrors

The hearse with the weird odor slowed to a stop before the entrance. The sound of pebbles could be heard bouncing on the ceiling. There were footsteps coming from the corridor, and there seemed to be someone sawing next door. The door knob to the room rattled slightly, and the faucet in the bathroom kept dripping even though it had been screwed shut. There was a rubber ball that rolled on its own underneath the bed. Wet footsteps started to surface one after another on the floor. At 3 am, Chen Ge held a cleaver in his hand as he hid beside the room heater. The call he was trying to make was finally answered.

Darkness is a common element. Old houses in these stories are often dimly lit or completely dark, which adds to the sense of fear. Another element is strange noises, like creaking floors, moaning sounds, or footsteps when no one is supposed to be there. Eerie apparitions or shadowy figures are also typical. They might be seen out of the corner of one's eye or in a flash. And of course, a sense of isolation, as these old houses are usually far from other inhabited places, making it difficult for the characters to get help.
