The two sentence Thrillers
REDDIT , A SOCIAL NEWS AND ENTERTAINMENT WEBSITE IS KNOWN FOR ITS vast SUPPLY OF INFORMATION . Over the years it has gained such popularity that it is given the title ‘Front page of the internet’ .
I was given the Privilege of joining a competition held by the creators of this website . The challenge was simple
“create a horror story in two sentences” .
there were millions of entries into this competition , but from what I have gathered , I present to you the eight entries that have a chance at bagging the price –
1. You hear your mom calling you into the kitchen. As you are heading down the stairs you hear a whisper from the closet saying “Don’t go down there honey, I heard it too.”
2. The doctors told the amputee he might experience a phantom limb from time to time. Nobody prepared him for the moments though, when he felt cold fingers brush across his phantom hand.
3. They celebrated the first successful cryogenic freezing. He had no way of letting them know he was still conscious.
4. The grinning face stared at me from the darkness beyond my bedroom window. For a moment I forgot that I live on the 14th floor.
5. I read my favourite book and play video games for a while before I go to sleep. When I wake up, I’m in a padded room and the nurses tell me it was just a dream.
6. She wondered why she was casting two shadows. Afterall, there was only a single lightbulb.
7. You get home, tired after a long day’s work and ready for a relaxing night alone. You reach for the light switch, but another hand is already there.
And the one most likely to take home the prize –
8. I just saw my reflection wink and smirk at me
