One story could be: 'The old house stood alone in the dark forest. Every night, strange noises came from within, and no one dared to find out why.'
A third story might be 'The doll on the shelf had a broken smile. At midnight, it seemed to move on its own, and its eyes followed her across the room.' The doll is often a symbol of creepiness. The broken smile gives it an off - putting appearance, and the idea that it moves and watches someone at midnight is very scary.
One story could be: 'I heard a knock on the door at midnight. When I opened it, there was no one there, but I felt a cold hand on my shoulder.'
One story could be: 'The old doll in the attic blinked. I realized it had been watching me all this time.'
Some other scary two - sentence stories could be. 'The cemetery at midnight was still. But then the tombstones started to tremble.' 'I was alone in the old library. Suddenly, a book flew off the shelf and landed at my feet.'
In the mirror, a face that wasn't mine stared back. It grinned as I screamed.
I woke up in the middle of the night. A cold hand touched my face and whispered 'you're not alone'.
Here's one. I woke up in the middle of the night and saw a shadowy figure at the foot of my bed. When I blinked, it was gone but I could still feel its presence.
I woke up to see a figure at the foot of my bed. When I blinked, it was inches from my face.
I woke in the night to a cold hand on my face. When I turned on the light, there was no one.
The clock stopped at midnight. Then, I saw a face in the mirror that wasn't mine. I couldn't look away as it started to smile a sinister smile. It felt like it was reaching out from the mirror, its long fingers stretching towards me. I tried to run, but my feet were glued to the floor. I closed my eyes tightly, hoping it would disappear when I opened them again. But when I finally gathered the courage to peek, it was still there, closer than before.
The old house was silent. Then I heard a child's laughter from an empty room and no one was there.
