Share some '3 line horror story' examples.

Here's another: 'The old doll sat on the shelf. Its eyes followed me. I turned off the light. In the dark, it giggled softly.'

I heard a knock at the door. When I opened it, no one was there but a cold hand grabbed my ankle.

Well, here's an example. 'The attic was silent. I climbed the ladder, and a cold hand grabbed my ankle.' Also, 'The mirror was fogged. I wiped it, and a face that wasn't mine stared back.' These two - line horror stories create a sense of dread in just a few words. They rely on setting up a spooky situation quickly and leaving the reader to imagine the worst. For instance, in the first one, being trapped in an old house with no way out is a classic horror trope. And in the second, the unknown entity in the attic adds an element of mystery and fear.

I woke up to find a strange handprint on the window beside my bed.

Sure. 'You came into my life. And made it a beautiful dream.'

Here is one: 'The dog waited every day. His owner never returned. He died alone by the gate.' This story is sad because the dog's loyalty was not rewarded and it had a lonely end. The dog's hope for its owner's return was in vain, which is a very tragic situation.

Example 1: I woke up in the middle of the night. There was a figure at the foot of my bed, smiling with no eyes. Example 2: She heard a knock on the door. When she opened it, there was only a bloody handprint on the doorknob.

One more example is: I saw a figure in the mirror. When I turned around, it was still there but no reflection.

Here are some: 'All teeth, no gums.' 'Bedroom, not alone.' 'Footsteps in attic.'

I woke up to find a handprint on the window that wasn't mine. It was small, like a child's, but I live alone.
