scary late night stories

I once had a scary late night driving experience myself. It was really late and I was on a narrow country road. The headlights started to flicker and then there was this strange noise coming from the engine. I thought I might break down in the middle of nowhere. I was terrified but luckily managed to get to a gas station just in time. There could have been all sorts of unknown things lurking in the dark around me.

No. Some late night ghost stories can be rather interesting or even bittersweet. For example, there are stories of friendly ghosts that just seem to be lingering around because they love the place they used to live in. They might play harmless pranks like moving small objects around.

One late night, I was waiting for a delivery. When the doorbell finally rang, I opened the door to find no one there, but a strange, cold wind blew in. As I looked down, there was a package covered in what looked like blood - stains. I quickly shut the door and called the delivery company, but they said no such package was sent. It was truly terrifying.

Stephen King is a great author for scary late night stories. His works like 'Carrie' and 'It' are full of horror elements. Shirley Jackson is also excellent, especially with 'The Haunting of Hill House'. H.P. Lovecraft is known for his cosmic horror, stories that make you feel small and terrified in the face of the unknown, such as 'The Call of Cthulhu'.

There's a scary late night story I heard once. In a small, isolated town, there was an abandoned asylum. A group of teens decided to explore it at night. As they walked through the dark corridors, they heard strange whispers and the sound of dragging chains. Every time they turned a corner, they felt a cold breeze. It turned out that the place was haunted by the spirits of the patients who had died there under cruel circumstances. They barely made it out alive.

Vehicle malfunctions also often play a part. For example, headlights going out suddenly or strange noises from the engine. It makes you feel vulnerable in the middle of the night when there's not much help around. And it adds to the overall scariness of the situation. Imagine being in the dark, in the middle of nowhere, with a car that might break down any second.

I once took a late - night walk in a forest. I heard rustling in the bushes. When I looked, I saw two glowing eyes. I froze for a moment. Then I remembered that there could be wild animals. I slowly backed away and took a different path. It was a very spooky encounter and made me think twice about walking alone at night in the woods.

A friend of mine was walking late at night near an old asylum. He said he saw a figure in a white gown floating near a window. He ran away as fast as he could. Just the thought of it gives me chills.

Yes, it is. Many movies claim to be based on true stories, and 'Late Night with the Devil' is one of them. Usually, such movies take real - life events and add elements of horror or drama to make them more engaging for the audience.

Unusual or unexpected contents in the delivery can create horror. Imagine opening a package from a late - night delivery and finding something that's not supposed to be there, like a severed finger or a cursed object. Or if the package seems to have a life of its own, pulsating or vibrating in a menacing way. And if the delivery person behaves in a really odd or menacing way, like not leaving after handing over the package but just standing there, staring at you.
