I woke up in the middle of the night. There was a figure at the foot of my bed. When I turned on the light, it was gone.
He was alone in the old house. A strange noise came from the attic. When he climbed up, a pair of glowing eyes stared at him.
She heard a scratching at the door. The dog refused to go near it. Then the scratching stopped, and something whispered her name.
The moon was full. I took a shortcut through the cemetery. Shadows started to move towards me.
The moon was full. A howl echoed through the forest. And then I saw the eyes in the dark.
They met by chance. Their eyes locked and hearts fluttered. Now they are inseparable.
A boy had a dream. In the dream, he could fly. When he woke up, he felt inspired.
One story could be: 'I heard a knock on the door at midnight. When I opened it, no one was there, but I felt a cold hand on my shoulder.'
A third story could be 'I walked into the abandoned house. The moment I stepped in, the door slammed shut and the walls began to ooze blood.' The idea of being trapped in a place where something so grotesque as walls oozing blood occurs is terrifying. It plays on the fear of being in an unknown and dangerous situation, which is a common theme in horror.
One: The last man on Earth sat alone in a room. There was a knock on the door. Two: I woke up to find 'You are next' written on my mirror. I live alone.
Here's another. 'The old house was empty. I walked in, the floorboards creaking. A photo on the wall showed a face that looked like mine. The lights flickered. When I looked back at the photo, the face was gone.'
