there are too many two-sentence horror
stories that are actually scary most are
so-so or just clever enough to make you
smile but then there are two sentence
stories so scary you'll think about them
for days while novelists need hundreds
of pages to freak you out all it takes
for these reddit authors is a great idea
and two sentences to scare you half to
death
be careful after this list is over you
might not want to go to bed with the
lights off a mic with was twenty five
and here are twenty five two sentence
horror stories that are actually scary
[Music]
twenty five she wondered why she was
casting two shadows after all there was
only a single light bulb twenty four
there was a picture in my phone of me
sleeping I live alone
twenty three growing up with cats and
dogs I got used to the sounds of
scratching at my doors wide slept now
that I live alone
it's much more unsettling twenty two
yesterday my parents told me I was too
old for an imaginary friend and that I
had to let her go they found her body
this morning
21 my girlfriend asked why I was
breathing so heavily I wasn't twenty
after so many years living alone in this
large house I came to a startling
revelation in this time I had closed far
more doors than I had opened 19 the last
thing I saw was my alarm clock flashing
1207 before she pushed her mom rotted
nail through it chef
where screams ice at bowling I believed
it was only a dream but as I saw my
alarm clock read 1206 I heard my closet
door creak open 18 after working a hard
day I came home to see my girlfriend
cradling our child I didn't know which
was more frightening seeing my dead
girlfriend and stillborn child or
knowing that someone broke into my
apartment to place them there 17 you can
hear your mom calling you into the
kitchen as you're heading down the
stairs you hear a whisper from the
closet saying 16 they celebrated the
first successful project freezing he had
no way of letting them know he was still
conscious 15 they delivered the
mannequins in bubble wrap from the main
room I began to hear popping 14 my
daughter won't stop crying and screaming
in the middle of the night I visit her
grave and ask her to stop but doesn't
know thirteen I was having a pleasant
dream when what sounded like a hammer
woke me after that I could barely hear
the muffled sound of dirt covering the
coffin over my own screams
12 the grinning face stared at me from
the darkness beyond my bedroom window I
lived on the 14th floor
eleven sleep did not come easily to me
that night in the cabin in the woods for
the portraits on the wall only portrayed
the deformed the decrepit and the damned
sleep has never come easily to me ever
again for when I had awoke I found no
portraits only Windows 10 there's
nothing like the laughter of a baby
unless it's 1:00 a.m. you're home alone
9 the operation wasn't successful in the
traditional sense since my eyesight
didn't return but it left me with the
ability to distinguish heat signatures
at least 3 weeks have passed and I'm
still not sure how to politely ask my
best friend why he's room-temperature
aid they say practicing smiling in front
of a mirror makes you feel happier I
wish my reflection would join long 7 put
back the mirrors we miss watching you
six the funeral attendees never came out
of the catacombs something locked the
crypt door from the inside five for
years we heard the little voices and
footsteps of the ghost children in our
old farmhouse and we got used to them
then one day they went quiet which
should have been our own cue to leave
for you get home tired after a long
day's work and ready for a relaxing
night alone you reached for the light
switch
but another hand is already there three
the longer I wore it more grew on me she
had such pretty skin too I like to sing
in the shower sometimes when I got out
of last one the fogged up mirror read
you have a lovely voice I live alone
one neatly laid across my dining room
table
I found a dull kitchen knife a torn
crusty rag and a flip video camera which
seemed to be recording I owned none of
these items so what's the scary story
