Share some 'horrible two sentence horror stories'.

A woman woke up in the middle of the night. She saw a figure at the foot of her bed, and then it whispered her name before vanishing.

Story 1: I woke up to a cold hand on my face. When I turned on the light, no one was there.

Well, they are effective because they create a sense of immediate horror. In just two sentences, they can set a very spooky scene. For example, 'The clock stopped at midnight. Then I heard a slow, dragging sound coming from the attic.' It gives you just enough information to let your imagination run wild. You start to picture what could be in the attic, why the clock stopped at such an eerie time. It's like a quick jolt to your nerves.

Here's another: 'The old doll in the attic blinked. I ran out and never went back.' This creates a sense of unease with the simple and unexpected actions. The blinking of the doll, which is an inanimate object, is very creepy.

One story could be: 'I woke up to a strange noise in the attic. When I went to check, a pair of glowing eyes stared back at me.'

I woke up in the middle of the night. A cold hand touched my face and whispered 'you're not alone'.

She heard a knock at the door. Opening it, she saw her own face staring back at her with empty eyes.

I sat at my usual desk in school. When I opened it, a severed finger rolled out.
