One could be: 'I tucked myself in. Then I saw a face under my bed.'
A third one: 'I asked mom to tuck me in. She did, but her eyes were black holes. I couldn't scream.'
These stories are scary as they create a contrast. For example, 'I lay down to be tucked in. A cold hand reached from under the covers.' The normal act of getting tucked in is juxtaposed with a very abnormal and frightening event. Our minds are not expecting something bad in that situation, so it catches us off - guard and scares us more easily.
A common 'tummy tuck horror story' is when the scarring is much worse than expected. After the surgery, instead of a faint line that could be easily hidden, the patient was left with a thick, raised, and very visible scar. This made the person self - conscious and regretful of the whole tummy tuck decision. They had to try various scar treatments, but the results were not satisfactory, and they were constantly worried about how to hide it in public.

The mirror showed my reflection smiling. I wasn't smiling. I ran.
I woke up in the middle of the night. There was a shadowy figure at the foot of my bed.
There was a case where a family thought they owned a certain area up to a large tree on what they believed was their property line. However, new surveys showed the tree was actually on the neighbor's side. The neighbor then cut down the tree, which had been a cherished part of the family's yard for years. It led to a huge feud between the two families with lots of shouting and threats.
