Can you recommend some uncopyrighted scary stories?

You can find uncopyrighted scary stories on some public domain literature websites. These sites often have a collection of old tales that are no longer under copyright. Some blogs dedicated to sharing classic and original stories might also have uncopyrighted scary ones.

Sure. One of the scariest might be the story about the haunted house where strange noises and apparitions were constantly seen. It gives a really eerie feeling.

The 'Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark' series is quite good. It has lots of short, spine - chilling tales.

One story could be 'The Haunted Doll'. A girl finds an old doll in the attic. At night, she hears strange noises coming from it. But it turns out it was just a mouse that had made its home inside the doll. It's a bit spooky at first but not overly so.

There was a short story in 2013 that I remember. It was about a girl who moved into an old apartment. Every night, she heard scratching sounds on the walls. As she investigated, she found out that a previous tenant had been murdered there and was trying to communicate from the other side. It was really terrifying with its build - up of suspense.

Sure. One classic scary story could be 'The Tell - Tale Heart' where the narrator's obsession and guilt drive him to madness. Another might be 'The Monkey's Paw' which shows the terrifying consequences of interfering with fate. And 'The Legend of Sleepy Hollow' with its headless horseman is also very spooky.

Yes. 'The Yellow Wallpaper' is a good example of a scary short story. It tells the story of a woman who slowly descends into madness while being confined in a room with yellow wallpaper. In terms of scary fictions, Stephen King's works are great. For instance, 'Carrie' is a famous one. A bullied girl discovers she has telekinetic powers and uses them for revenge in a very bloody and scary way.

😋I don't recommend reading overly scary short stories, but if you really want to read them, the following books might satisfy your needs: Crafty House, The Ring, Dark Specter, Haunted House, and I'm About to Come Out. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗

One short but scary story is 'The Tell - Tale Heart'. A man is haunted by an old man's vulture - like eye. He becomes so obsessed that he kills the old man and hides his body under the floorboards. But then he starts to hear the old man's heart still beating, which drives him insane.

Sure. One short scary story is 'The Tell - Tale Heart'. A man is driven mad by the old man's vulture - like eye and finally kills him. He then hears the old man's heart still beating under the floorboards where he hid the body. Another is 'The Monkey's Paw'. A family gets a cursed monkey's paw that grants wishes but with horrible consequences. When they wish for money, their son dies at work and they get the compensation money.
