Tell me some scary short stories.

There was an old house at the end of a lane. A new family moved in. One day, while cleaning the attic, they found a locket with the words 'forget me not' engraved on it. That night, strange noises started. Footsteps echoed through the halls. They saw a shadowy figure that seemed to be searching for something. Every time they tried to leave the house, they felt an unseen force pulling them back, as if the presence in the house didn't want them to forget it.

One short scary story is 'The Haunted Mirror'. A girl bought an old mirror at a thrift store. Every night, she saw a face in the mirror that wasn't her own. It was a pale, sad face with dark eyes. One night, the face reached out from the mirror. Terrified, she ran out of the room and never went back. The mirror was left there, but sometimes at night, you could still see a faint glow from it.

One super scary short story is about a haunted house. A family moved into an old, dilapidated house. Every night, they would hear strange scratching noises coming from the attic. One day, the youngest child went up to the attic out of curiosity. She saw a shadowy figure in the corner. When she screamed, the figure vanished, but from that day on, she was haunted by nightmares of the figure coming closer and closer.

One night, a young girl was walking past the graveyard. She heard a soft whisper calling her name. She looked around but saw no one. As she quickened her pace, the whisper grew louder and more urgent. When she finally ran out of earshot, she swore she saw a shadowy figure standing among the tombstones.

One easy short scary story is about a girl who heard strange scratching noises coming from her closet every night. One night, she couldn't take it anymore and opened the closet. There was a pair of glowing eyes staring back at her. She quickly shut the door and ran out of the room.

There's the story of 'The Haunted Doll'. A boy got a very old doll from his grandmother's attic. At night, he could hear the doll whispering his name. When he looked at it, the doll's eyes seemed to follow him around the room. He was so scared that he threw the doll away, but he could still hear its faint whispers from outside the house.

Another story involves an old, abandoned house. A group of kids dared each other to go inside. Once inside, they heard creaking floors and saw shadows moving on the walls. One of the kids thought they saw an old lady in a white dress, but when they blinked, she disappeared. They all ran out as fast as they could, and they never went near that house again.

One Japanese short scary story is about a girl who always hears a strange scratching sound at night. Every time she tries to find the source, it stops. One night, she decides to stay awake and wait. As the scratching gets louder, she sees a long, bony hand emerging from under her bed.

One scary short Halloween story is about a girl who went trick - or - treating alone. She knocked on a door of an old, dilapidated house. An old woman with a wrinkled face and strange eyes opened the door. She silently handed the girl a piece of candy that was covered in what looked like blood. The girl ran away in horror. When she got home, she found that the 'candy' was actually a human tooth.

One scary campfire story is about a hiker who got lost in the woods at night. He heard strange noises, like growls and whispers. As he tried to find his way back, he saw a pair of glowing eyes in the dark. He ran, but the thing chased him. He finally found a small cave to hide in. He stayed there all night, hearing the creature prowling outside. When morning came, he left the cave and realized he was just a few yards from the campsite all along.
