find the key short creepy stories

One short creepy story is 'The Tell - Tale Heart' by Edgar Allan Poe. It's about a narrator who is haunted by an old man's vulture - like eye and eventually kills him. He then hears the old man's heart still beating under the floorboards. Another is 'The Hitchhiker'. A man keeps seeing the same hitchhiker on a long drive, no matter how far he goes or how many times he tries to leave the hitchhiker behind. And 'The Monkey's Paw' where a family gets a magical paw that grants wishes but with horrible consequences for each wish they make.

There's a story where a player in Roblox was on a quest to find the key. In the game, the environment got progressively darker and more foreboding as they got closer to the key's location.
