One camera horror story is about a family who installed a security camera in their home. One night, they saw a strange figure lurking in the corner of the living room on the camera feed, but when they rushed to the living room, there was nothing there. It was really spooky.
Once, a girl found an old camera in her attic. When she started taking pictures with it, strange things began to happen. In every photo, there were shadowy figures that she hadn't seen when she took the shot. At night, she could hear whispers coming from the camera. One day, she decided to smash the camera, but as soon as she did, she saw a face in the broken pieces, screaming at her. She never went near an old camera again.
One common element is the appearance of unexplained figures in the photos. These figures can be ghosts, demons or just some strange shapes that seem out of place. Another element is the camera behaving abnormally, like clicking on its own or changing settings by itself. Also, a sense of dread or unease that builds as more and more strange things happen with the camera is often present.
The mystery of it. Camera obscura is an old device, and not many people know how it really works. In a horror story, this lack of knowledge can be used to create fear. For example, strange images can appear in it without any obvious explanation.
Yes. For example, a digital camera in Japan was said to be cursed. When people used it to take pictures at night, the flash would sometimes not work properly. Instead of illuminating the scene, it would create a blinding white light that seemed to suck in all the surrounding darkness. And in the photos taken during those times, there were always these strange, long, spindly arms reaching out towards the camera as if trying to grab it. It was so terrifying that no one dared to use that camera again.
The unexpected appearances are really scary. For example, a sudden figure emerging from the darkness that you can't identify. It gives a sense of being watched and invaded.
The unexpected glitches are really scary. For example, the camera suddenly not working properly when you're in a crucial moment, like in the middle of a spooky place exploration or an important event. It's like the camera has a life of its own and decides to mess with you.

There might also be a perception issue. In camera politics may be seen as a 'boys' club' where certain behaviors and norms are prevalent. Women may be expected to conform to these norms, which could be at odds with their own values or ways of operating. This could create a hostile environment for women trying to participate in in - camera politics. For instance, the way of communication or the unwritten rules in these political meetings might be difficult for women to adapt to.
