Well, there's a trippy scary story of a mirror. A girl noticed that every time she looked into her old antique mirror, her reflection would blink at a different time than she did. As days passed, the reflection started to look more distorted and menacing. There's also the story of a bus ride. A passenger boarded a seemingly normal bus, but as it drove on, the other passengers' faces started to melt and the bus seemed to be driving into an endless void. And then there's the story of a family who moved into a new home. Their little son kept talking to an 'imaginary friend' who turned out to be a malevolent spirit that haunted the house before they moved in.
One scary trippy story is about a girl who moved into an old house. At night, she would hear strange scratching noises coming from the walls. One night, she saw a shadowy figure that seemed to be floating just outside her window. She was so scared that she couldn't move. Then the figure slowly disappeared. Ever since then, she always felt like she was being watched in that house.
I heard a story where a woman was driving on a lonely road at night. Her radio started to play strange static sounds and then she saw a figure standing in the middle of the road. She slammed on the brakes, but when she looked again, the figure was gone. As she continued driving, she noticed that the same figure would keep appearing and disappearing in different parts of the road, making her feel really scared and disoriented.
One great 'trippy horror novel' is 'House of Leaves' by Mark Z. Danielewski. It plays with the format of the book itself, creating a disorienting and mind - bending experience for the reader. The story within the story structure adds to the overall sense of unease.
A trippy cartoon is trippy because of a combination of factors. The use of bright, hallucinatory colors, odd perspectives, and fantastical elements that don't follow the rules of reality. Plus, the plot might be full of randomness and unexpected twists.
One characteristic is the unexpected twists. In 'The Veldt', you don't expect the children's relationship with the virtual nursery to turn so dark. Trippy short stories also tend to have unreliable narrators. Take 'The Tell - Tale Heart', the narrator's sanity is clearly in question, and his view of events is warped. And they usually create a sense of unease or confusion. In 'The Lottery', the whole concept of the lottery is so strange and the reactions of the townspeople are so nonchalant that it makes the reader feel off - balance.
Well, 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' is a classic trippy story. It's full of strange and wonderful characters and events that can really take you on a wild ride when you're in that state.
There's 'The Matrix'. The concept of living in a simulated reality and the green - tinted digital world filled with bullet - time action and the strange agents is really trippy. 'Event Horizon' is another one. The idea of a ship that has been to hell and back, with the gory and nightmarish visuals it brings, is trippy in a horror - sci - fi way. And 'Interstellar' has some trippy moments too, like the time dilation and the strange planet with the huge waves.
Yes. There's 'The Veldt' by Ray Bradbury. In this story, the children become too attached to a virtual reality nursery that shows an African veldt, and things take a very strange and disturbing turn. Also, 'An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge' by Ambrose Bierce has a trippy aspect. The main character seems to experience time dilation and a series of illusions as he is about to be hanged.
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 vulture - like eye and eventually kills him. Another is 'The Monkey's Paw', where a family gets a cursed paw that grants wishes but with terrible consequences. There's also 'The Yellow Wallpaper', which is a disturbing tale of a woman's descent into madness.
One popular trippy graphic novel is 'Sandman' by Neil Gaiman. It has a rich and dream - like world that really messes with your mind in the best way. The art and the stories are so complex and full of symbolism.
