Tell me some barrow horror stories.

The unknown is one of the scariest elements. Since barrows are ancient burial sites, we don't really know what secrets they hold. It could be the spirits of the dead or some ancient curse.

Well, Clyde Barrow was a notorious criminal. His story often involved his criminal activities and his relationship with Bonnie Parker. Regarding Cumie T. Walker, she was Clyde's mother. Some top stories might revolve around how Cumie dealt with Clyde's wayward behavior and the impact of Clyde's actions on the family. Maybe there were stories about her attempts to guide Clyde back to the right path before he got deeply involved in crime.

One great Thomas Barrow fanfiction could be a story where he finds true friendship outside of Downton Abbey. Maybe he meets a kind stranger who doesn't judge him for his past and they form an unlikely bond. It could explore his character in a new light, away from the strict social hierarchies of the Abbey.

A third story could be about a forest that is said to be cursed. A group of hikers go into the forest. As they walk deeper, they find that the trees seem to close in on them. They start to see apparitions of people who died in the forest long ago, and they struggle to find their way out as the forest seems to change its layout constantly.

There might be a story about a vengeful spirit. In the 1800 horror stories, it could be the spirit of a wronged woman. She was unjustly killed and now her spirit roams the place where she died. She appears to people at night, her face pale and eyes full of hatred. Those who see her are filled with an overwhelming sense of dread and soon find themselves in the middle of a series of terrifying events.

One horror story could be about a haunted house. In the story, a family moves into an old, dilapidated house. Strange noises start at night, like scratching on the walls. Doors open and close by themselves. They soon discover that a tragic event happened there long ago and the spirits are still trapped, seeking revenge. It's a terrifying experience for the family as they try to escape the clutches of the unknown forces in the house.

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.

In a story from Maine, there was a forest with an old, abandoned cabin. Hikers who got too close to it would feel an overwhelming sense of dread. Legend had it that a hermit who lived there in the past had gone mad and killed anyone who trespassed. Some even claimed to see his shadowy figure lurking among the trees near the cabin.

There was a story where a girl was about to graduate from high school, a major milestone. She started having nightmares about a figure in a black cloak. As the graduation day got closer, the nightmares became more vivid. On the day of graduation, she saw the figure at the back of the auditorium. It turned out that an old student who had died on campus years ago was said to haunt those who were about to leave, as if not wanting them to reach this milestone of moving on.
