She could hear a low growl as if something was coming closer and closer.

Here's a different short scary story. A young boy was home alone. He was in his room playing video games when the power suddenly went out. He used his flashlight to find some candles.

He was too afraid to go and check, but the noise kept getting louder and louder.

Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She found a magic key in the garden. When she inserted the key into an old, rusty door at the end of the garden, it opened to a world full of talking animals. The animals welcomed her and showed her around their beautiful land. Lily had a great time playing with them until it was time to go home. She promised to come back again soon.

Once, a little girl wanted to be a great singer. But she was told she had no talent. Instead of giving up, she practiced every day in her small room. Years passed, and she kept at it. Eventually, she got a chance to sing in a small local event. People were amazed by her voice. That small success led to more opportunities, and now she is a well - known singer. Moral: Don't let others' opinions stop you from chasing your dreams.

It broadens your literary horizons. Since it's random, you might read a genre you've never considered before.

There could be a brave knight in a random short story. He might be on a quest to save a princess from a dragon.

In a random short story, you can include elements of mystery. For example, a character might find a strange object with no idea what it is or where it came from. There could be a journey, perhaps a young girl traveling across a desert to find a lost city. Also, emotions play a big part. You can have a character who is feeling lonely and then finds friendship in an unexpected place, like a hermit who befriends a talking raven.
