My phone took a picture of me while I was sleeping and sent it to an unknown number.
I heard my dead mother's voice calling my name from the basement. I know it's impossible because she passed away years ago, but the voice was so clear, as if she was right there.
She checked the backseat of her car before getting in. As she drove, she saw a pale face in the rear - view mirror that wasn't there before. It was just a short drive home, but it felt like an eternity. The face in the mirror just stared at her with empty eyes.
I saw a face in the mirror. But I was alone in the room. It was a face I didn't recognize, with hollow eyes and a strange grin. It made my blood run cold as I stared back at it, not knowing what it could be or where it came from.
I was alone in the forest. Out of the darkness, a pair of glowing eyes stared at me.
One: I sat on my couch. Something under the cushion grabbed my finger. Another: I walked into my room. The closet door opened on its own and a dark figure peeked out.
My candle flickered and died. In the sudden blackness, I heard a ghostly whisper.
She entered the attic. The doll she thought was broken started to laugh.
Sure. Story 1: She found a key. It opened a hidden door. A world of magic awaited. Story 2: He lost his hat. In the search, he met a friend. They shared a great adventure. Story 3: The cat chased a mouse. The mouse hid in a hole. The cat sat and waited patiently.
A 'creampie horror story' could be about a cursed dessert competition. A contestant makes a 'creampie' but during the judging, the 'creampie' starts to ooze a black liquid and strange noises come from it. Everyone in the room is horrified.
One theme is the end of the world. Many horror stories explore what would happen if the world was ending due to some apocalyptic event, like a zombie apocalypse or a global pandemic that turns people into monsters. Another theme is the lost in a strange and dangerous world. For example, a character finding themselves in a parallel dimension filled with nightmarish creatures. And the theme of the untrustworthy nature is also there. In horror, you can't always trust the people around you as they might be part of the horror.
Well, the theme of madness is quite prevalent in horror. Characters going insane and doing unthinkable things create a lot of horror. For instance, a scientist driven mad by his unethical experiments. Another theme is the theme of the otherworldly invasion. Aliens or creatures from another dimension coming to Earth to take over or cause chaos. Also, the theme of the undead, like zombies or vampires, is very popular in horror stories.
