What is 'the contract' about in the scary short story?

Since I haven't read the story, I can't say for sure. But it could be a naive protagonist who gets tricked into signing the contract, and a mysterious antagonist who offers the contract.

The novel in the sixth issue of the 2005 Short Story Magazine was called " Contract." This novel was about honesty and betrayal. The protagonist, Su Ming, was an ordinary young man. He got a mysterious book in an accident, which recorded some rules that could change people's fate. Su Ming began to use these rules, but he gradually realized that these rules were not always fair. Some rules had to be followed. At the end of the novel, Su Ming was faced with the choice of following the rules or choosing his own interests.

One night, I was walking alone on a deserted street. The streetlights were flickering. Suddenly, I heard a strange noise behind me, like a low growl. I turned around quickly but saw nothing. My heart started pounding as I walked faster. Out of the corner of my eye, I thought I saw a shadow moving. I broke into a run, not daring to look back again until I reached my house.

Once, I was walking alone in a dark forest at night. Suddenly, I heard a strange growling sound coming from the bushes. My heart started pounding. I froze for a moment, not knowing what to do. Then, I saw a pair of glowing eyes in the darkness. I quickly turned around and ran as fast as I could, not looking back until I reached the safety of my home.

Once upon a time, there was a young girl named Lily who got lost in a scary forest. The trees were tall and gnarled, their branches like twisted arms reaching out. The forest was filled with an eerie silence, broken only by the occasional hoot of an owl. Lily walked nervously, her heart pounding. Suddenly, she heard a low growl from the bushes. She froze, too scared to move. After what felt like an eternity, she mustered the courage to run. She ran until she saw a faint light at the end of the forest, which she hoped was the way out.

I went camping in the forest. At night, while sitting by the campfire, I heard howls that didn't sound like any normal animal. I decided to go to my tent. But as I walked, I felt like something was following me. I turned around and saw a dark shape moving between the trees. I ran to my tent and zipped it up. But then I heard scratching on the outside of the tent all night long.

Well, a short story about a scary dream could include a sense of being trapped or unable to escape. Maybe the main character keeps waking up in the dream only to find they're still stuck in it. There could also be elements of mystery, like not knowing why the dream is happening or what the ultimate outcome will be.

Well, it could involve strange noises outside, a creepy shadow in the corner, or maybe a power outage that adds to the spookiness.

If you're looking for a recommendation for a short story contract, you can consider the following options. First of all, Lu Xun's Kong Yiji was a classic short story. It was considered one of the pinnacle of short stories in China and even the world. Secondly, Shi Tiesheng's Life Like the String of a Zither was also a short story worthy of recommendation. In addition, William Faulkner's short story collection was also a good choice, which included the outstanding works of Faulkner's short stories. For contemporary literature, Su Tong's " Wives and Concubines,"" Queen of Hearts,"" Watermelon Boat," and Mo Yan's " The White Dog and the Swing " were also recommended short stories. In addition, Shi Shaowei's "Burial" and "Minnan Guests" were also short stories written by some contracted writers. If you are interested in world short stories, you can consider works such as Haruki Murakami's Attack on the Bakery Again, Gogol's Coat, and Lu Xun's Madman's Diary. All in all, the short stories recommended above all had a certain literary value and could be used as a reference for signing a contract.

Well, there's this story of a man who sees his own reflection in a mirror but the reflection starts moving independently. Creepy, right?
