One good way is to start with a vivid description. For example, 'The sun was a blazing ball of fire, searing the cracked earth as the lone traveler trudged forward.' This immediately sets the scene and grabs the reader's attention.
Another way is to start with a startling statement or fact. Such as 'In this town, every full moon, someone goes missing without a trace.' It creates suspense and makes the reader eager to find out more about this strange phenomenon.
Starting with a thought - provoking question can be effective too. Something like 'What if you could change one thing about your past?'. This makes the reader start thinking and they are more likely to keep reading to find out how the story might explore this question.
One way is to start with a vivid description of a scene. For example, 'The old, creaky house stood alone at the end of the overgrown lane, its windows like dark, gaping mouths.' Another way is to introduce an interesting character right away, such as 'There was a girl named Lily who had a secret that could change the world.' You can also begin with a thought - provoking question like 'What if you woke up one day and found that all the colors in the world had disappeared?'
Beginning with an interesting dialogue can be very effective. Such as, 'Are you sure we should be here?' she whispered, her eyes darting around nervously. It creates intrigue and makes the reader want to know more about the characters and their situation.
A good way is to start with an action. For instance, 'He ran as fast as he could, not daring to look back.' This gets the story moving right away and makes the reader wonder what he is running from.
Beginning with a vivid description of a unique setting can also be very effective. You can describe a strange landscape like 'The forest was filled with trees that glowed an eerie blue in the moonlight.' This sets a mood and makes the reader eager to know what will happen in such a place.
A startling statement is another good option. 'The world ended not with a bang, but with a whisper.' It grabs the reader's attention and makes them eager to find out how such a statement could be true. Often, this type of opening challenges the reader's assumptions and sets up an interesting narrative.
A startling event can be a good start. For instance, a sudden explosion in a peaceful town. This creates shock and makes the reader eager to find out what caused it and what will happen next.

"The Unusual Way to Open World of Warcraft" by Half an Acre of Clouds. It was a game/virtual online game novel with game, online game, and virtual reality elements.
On the big ship in the depths of the Death Mines, Nu Tao looked warily at the person whose entire body had merged into the shadows.
"Who are you?"
"You just killed me and cut off my head," the man said in a cold and hoarse voice."Now you're asking me who I am?"
"I am Edwin VanCleef!"
Nu Tao was shocked at first, then he restrained his thoughts and said tentatively,
"Mr. VanCleef, I wonder if you're willing to change your lifestyle…"
"As a player…"
(Even if you haven't played World of Warcraft, you can still watch it as a virtual online game.)
