Empty House. There's something spooky about an empty house. It stands there, quiet and desolate, and you can't help but wonder what happened inside or if there are unseen presences.
Silent. House. Footstep. In a silent house, the sound of a single footstep can be spine - chilling. You expect the house to be empty, but then there's that unexpected noise. It could be an intruder, or something more supernatural. You freeze in fear, not knowing what's coming next.
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.
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.
