What are some common horror stories?

One common horror setting is the old, abandoned house. It's often dark, with creaking floors and peeling wallpaper. There could be hidden rooms or basements where the unknown lurks. Another is the forest at night. The thick trees block out the moonlight, and strange noises come from all directions. You can't see clearly, and there might be some sort of evil entity waiting in the shadows. Also, the desolate cemetery is a typical horror setting. With tombstones everywhere and a sense of death in the air, it gives off a very spooky vibe.

One common horror story is dealing with unhelpful airport staff. For example, if you have a problem with your boarding pass or need some special assistance, and the staff is rude or just not interested in helping. Also, lost or damaged luggage can be a nightmare. You might have packed all your important things carefully, but then the airline loses it or something in it gets broken.

One common DND horror story is about a party entering a haunted mansion. They thought it was just a simple exploration but soon realized the rooms shifted on their own. Traps kept springing up and undead creatures emerged from the walls. It was a terrifying experience as they struggled to find an exit while being constantly attacked.

One common retirement horror story is running out of money. Many people underestimate how much they'll need in retirement. They might not have saved enough during their working years and then find it difficult to cover basic living expenses like housing, food, and healthcare.

One common horror story is when the DMV system crashes. I know someone who was in the middle of getting their license renewed when the system went down. They had already waited for hours and then had to come back another day. And when they did come back, they had to start the whole process all over again as if they had never been there before. It was a huge waste of time and energy.

One common element is the use of a spooky setting like an old, abandoned house or a dark forest. Another is the presence of a menacing antagonist, such as a vampire or a serial killer. Also, horror stories often build suspense through things like strange noises or unexplained events.

A common one is finding foreign objects in it. I've heard of people finding small pieces of plastic or even bugs in their McRibs. It's really off - putting.

One common one is people lying about their age. I've heard of matches where the person said they were in their 20s but in reality were much older. Another is when they use old or fake photos. It's really disappointing when you meet up and they don't look anything like their pictures.

One common employer horror story is when employers don't pay employees on time. It can cause a lot of financial stress for the workers. Another is when employers overwork their staff without proper compensation or recognition. For example, making employees work long hours during holidays without extra pay.

One common 'common core horror story' is the confusion among parents. For example, when they try to help their kids with math homework. The new methods are so different from what they learned that they feel completely lost. It seems like a foreign language to them.
