One scary typed story is 'The Haunted Keyboard'. It's about a writer who starts to notice strange things happening whenever he types at his old typewriter. Words appear on the page that he didn't type, and they seem to be warnings from a ghostly presence. Another is 'The Typing Terror' where a girl finds an old manuscript in her attic. As she types it out to preserve it, she begins to experience the same horrors the author of the manuscript did. And 'The Cursed Computer' where every document typed on a particular computer seems to bring misfortune to the typist.
One common theme is the unknown or unseen force behind the typing. It could be a ghost, a demon, or some other supernatural entity. Another theme is the power of the written word. In these stories, the typed words often have a strange effect, like cursing the reader or bringing something bad to life. And often there's a sense of isolation, like the typist is alone when these strange things start to happen.
The 'Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark' series is quite good. It has lots of short, spine - chilling tales.
Sure. One of the scariest might be the story about the haunted house where strange noises and apparitions were constantly seen. It gives a really eerie feeling.
One story could be 'The Haunted Doll'. A girl finds an old doll in the attic. At night, she hears strange noises coming from it. But it turns out it was just a mouse that had made its home inside the doll. It's a bit spooky at first but not overly so.
There was a short story in 2013 that I remember. It was about a girl who moved into an old apartment. Every night, she heard scratching sounds on the walls. As she investigated, she found out that a previous tenant had been murdered there and was trying to communicate from the other side. It was really terrifying with its build - up of suspense.
Sure. One classic scary story could be 'The Tell - Tale Heart' where the narrator's obsession and guilt drive him to madness. Another might be 'The Monkey's Paw' which shows the terrifying consequences of interfering with fate. And 'The Legend of Sleepy Hollow' with its headless horseman is also very spooky.
😋I don't recommend reading overly scary short stories, but if you really want to read them, the following books might satisfy your needs: Crafty House, The Ring, Dark Specter, Haunted House, and I'm About to Come Out. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
Sure. One classic scary story is 'The Tell - Tale Heart' by Edgar Allan Poe. It's about a man who is driven mad by the old man's 'evil eye' and ends up murdering him, then being haunted by the sound of the dead man's heart. Another great ghost story is 'The Woman in Black'. It tells the tale of a vengeful ghost that terrifies a small town. And 'A Christmas Carol' can also be considered in a way, with the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future.
Well, I haven't listened to all of them specifically. But generally, stories about haunted houses are often quite scary in such podcasts. For example, a story where a family moves into an old mansion and strange things start to happen at night, like doors slamming on their own and cold drafts that seem to have a presence in them.
