Can you share some twist short horror stories?

Sure. One story is about a girl who always hears strange noises at night. She thinks it's the old house settling. One night, she decides to face it and goes to the attic. There, she finds a doll that looks exactly like her. As she reaches for it, the doll's eyes open and it whispers 'You're not alone'.

She heard a knock at the door. Opening it, she saw her own face staring back at her with empty eyes.

One characteristic is the unexpected ending. For example, in a story where a person thinks they are safe, but suddenly something terrifying happens at the last moment. Another is the build - up of suspense. It makes the reader keep guessing what will happen next, like in a story where strange things keep occurring but there's no clear explanation until the twist. Also, they often play with the reader's fears, whether it's the fear of the unknown, like in a story set in a dark, deserted place, or the fear of something supernatural.

One of the short horror stories could involve a forest. A hiker gets lost in a dense forest. As night falls, he notices eyes watching him from the bushes. He tries to run but feels like something is always just behind him, chasing him through the never - ending forest.

One great plot twist horror story is 'The Yellow Wallpaper'. At first, it seems like a woman's descent into madness due to being confined. But the twist is that her supposed madness might be a form of rebellion against the oppressive male - dominated society. The story makes you question what is real and what is the result of a repressive environment.

One story has a girl who starts receiving anonymous voicemails. The voicemails start with a soft ASMR - like breathing and then a spooky message. She thinks it's a prank at first. But the twist comes when she realizes the voicemails are coming from her future self, warning her about a terrible event that's about to happen. It's really a mind - bender.

Sure. There's a mommy horror story where the mother seems to be aging in reverse. At first, it seems like a good thing as she looks younger and more beautiful. But as she continues to age backwards, she loses her memories and her maternal instincts. She becomes more like a child herself, and then a baby, but with a dark and malevolent side. The family is left to take care of this 'baby - mother' who causes chaos and danger in the house.

Sure. There was a man who thought his wife was being unfaithful. He hired a private investigator. Turns out, his wife was actually trying to plan a big surprise for their anniversary. But all the secrecy made it seem like a cuckold situation at first. It was a horror story in a way because of the miscommunication and the man's unnecessary paranoia.

One great story is 'The Gift of the Magi'. A young couple is very poor. The wife has long, beautiful hair and the husband has a precious pocket watch. For Christmas, the wife cuts and sells her hair to buy a chain for her husband's watch. Meanwhile, the husband sells his watch to buy combs for his wife's hair. It's a sweet and unexpected twist on their selfless love.

Sure. There was a man who always dreamed of being a famous singer. He practiced day and night. One day, he entered a singing competition. But when he started to sing, his voice cracked horribly. Just as he thought he would be booed off, the judges loved it because they were looking for a unique, 'bad' voice for a comical role in a musical. And he got the part and became a star in a really unexpected way.
