Tell me a few scary 5 word horror stories.

Lights flicker, shadow grins. The sudden flickering of lights often creates an eerie atmosphere. And when you catch a glimpse of a shadow that seems to be grinning, it's truly spine - chilling. It makes you question if there's something malevolent around you that you can't quite see clearly.

The mirror shows nothing. It's as if there's no reflection, just an empty, black void where my face should be. This makes me wonder what is lurking in that emptiness, ready to reach out and grab me.

The mirror held a face.

How about 'Knock, no one there.' You hear a knock at the door, but when you open it, there's nobody. It leaves you with a sense of unease and the feeling that something is playing tricks on you.

Here are some: 'Alone in the dark.' It creates an immediate sense of isolation and the unknown that lurks in the darkness.

The mirror showed death.

One idea could be a haunted house where every night at midnight, the walls start to bleed. The people who enter can hear the screams of the previous owners who died mysteriously in the house. Another idea is a cursed doll that comes to life and follows a young girl everywhere, causing strange and terrifying things to happen around her. Also, a story about a group of hikers who get lost in the woods and are hunted by a supernatural creature that can blend in with the trees.

There was a story of a strict teacher in a boarding school. He was known for his harsh punishments. One day, a group of students played a prank on him. After that, strange things started to happen. Their books would disappear, and they would hear his angry voice in the empty hallways at night. It turned out that the teacher had a heart attack due to the prank and his spirit was angry at the students.

A child was home alone when the power went out. He lit a candle. In the flickering light, he saw a shadow on the wall that didn't match his own. It grew bigger and bigger. He ran to his room and hid under the bed. The shadow seemed to follow him. He closed his eyes and prayed until his parents came home.

How about 'Empty House, Creak'? An empty house is already a bit spooky, and the creaking sound, which might be from the old floorboards or doors, adds to the sense of dread. It makes you wonder what is causing the noise in an otherwise uninhabited place.
