One of the best sleepover scary stories is 'The Red Room'. It's about a person who decides to spend the night in a supposedly haunted red room. As the night falls, strange noises start to come from the corners of the room. The temperature drops suddenly, and the person feels an unseen presence. Shadows seem to move on their own, and every time they try to look directly at the source of the movement, there's nothing there. It builds up a great sense of dread and mystery.
One appropriate scary story could be 'The Haunted Doll'. It's about a doll that moves on its own at night. A girl named Emily found an old doll in the attic. Every night, she would hear strange noises coming from the doll's room. When she checked, the doll was in different positions each time. It was really creepy but not too extreme for a sleepover.
One story is about a girl who heard strange scratching noises on the window at her sleepover. Every time she looked, there was nothing there. But the scratching got louder and closer. Eventually, she saw a pair of red eyes in the darkness outside. She was so terrified that she hid under the covers until morning. When she told her friends in the morning, they just thought she had a bad dream.
One scary sleepover story could be about a haunted doll. A group of friends at a sleepover found an old doll in the attic. During the night, they heard strange giggling coming from the doll. When they looked at it, its eyes seemed to follow them around the room. They were so scared that they locked the doll in a closet, but the giggling continued until morning.
Here's another. At a sleepover in a cabin in the woods, the friends heard strange scratching noises on the window all night. One brave friend peeked outside and saw a pair of red eyes staring back at him. He quickly pulled back the curtain. Then they heard something climbing on the roof. They huddled together in fear until morning, not knowing what was outside trying to get in.
Definitely not. This involves vulgar and improper content. Daughters' sleepovers should be a time for positive social interactions, like sharing secrets about school, hobbies, or dreams. Bringing in sexual content completely goes against the nature of a sleepover and is unacceptable in a proper family and social environment.
One time at a gay sleepover, we decided to have a movie marathon. We watched all our favorite queer - themed movies, from 'Call Me by Your Name' to 'Moonlight'. We paused the movies often to discuss the beautiful cinematography and the powerful stories. And then we made some amazing popcorn with lots of different toppings. It was a really cozy and fun night.
Parents can start by creating a welcoming and inclusive environment in the home. Make sure all the teens feel safe and respected. For example, have non - judgmental conversations about different sexual orientations before the sleepover.
There's the story of 'The Vanishing Friend'. During a sleepover, the reader and friends are chatting and having fun. Suddenly, one of their friends disappears without a trace. They search the whole house - under the beds, in the closets. As they continue to look, they start to notice that things are moving on their own. Pictures on the wall turn upside down, and doors open and close by themselves. Then, they find a note written in what seems like blood that says 'You're next'.
