The unknown elements. For example, in a story where there are strange noises in an old house but you don't know what's causing them. It creates a sense of fear because our minds start imagining all sorts of terrifying things, like ghosts or monsters.
You could use names like 'Luna Darkwood', 'Morpheus Black', or 'Raven Nightshade'. These names have a spooky and mysterious feel to them, which would be great for a freaky story.
For a really freaky story, names like 'Mortimer' which has an old - fashioned and slightly creepy feel. 'Ophelia' can also work as it is often associated with madness in literature. And 'Vlad' which has associations with vampires and the Dracula legend.
For me, it's the unexplained elements. Like when things move on their own with no logical reason. For example, a book flying off a shelf when there's no wind or anyone nearby.
Both of his masterpieces, Nauseous and Being and Nothingness, explored many philosophical and ethical issues, including existence, free will, responsibility, morality, loneliness, and so on.
In Nauseous, he connected the individual experience with the core idea of Existentialism to explore the meaninglessness and pain of human existence. The protagonist of the novel, Finn Scott, was a young man who had experienced many pains and setbacks as he grew up. He tried to find a meaning to fill the void in his life.
In Being and Nothingness, Saturn explored the relationship between human free will and responsibility. The protagonist of the novel, Chris topher, was a young philosopher who tried to solve the problem of the meaning of human existence through thinking. He faced many difficult choices and challenges and finally realized the responsibility he had to bear and the inescapable suffering of existence.
The theme of these two novels was profound and complex, challenging human cognition and values. They are also regarded as one of the most important works of modern philosophy and literature.
You might consider 'Caspian Crypt'. 'Caspian' has a somewhat mysterious sound, and 'Crypt' is a very spooky place. 'Persephone Phantom' is also a good name. 'Persephone' is a figure from Greek mythology associated with the underworld, and 'Phantom' makes it even more ghostly. And 'Silas Sinister' is a great choice. 'Silas' is a name that can seem a bit old - fashioned and menacing, and 'Sinister' really emphasizes the freaky nature of the character.
There was a girl who moved into a new apartment. Every night, she heard a scratching noise coming from the wall. At first, she thought it was just mice. But one day, she saw a face peering through a crack in the wall. It was a pale face with sunken eyes. She called the landlord, but when he came, the face disappeared. That night, the scratching got louder and louder until she couldn't bear it anymore. She moved out the next day.
