#100WordHorror ★ AloneAtNight (Foreshadowing Dream)

When I was in college I house sat for my parents.

I’m a bit of a scaredy cat so I locked every door leading up to the bedroom when I went to bed at night. I had the weirdest dream that someone unlocked each door and turned on every light, I felt cold and woke up to my dog barking.

All of the lights in the house were on and every door open and unlocked. My dog wouldn’t stop barking at nothing in the hallway.

I sat in the shower with my dog and a phone the rest of night scared to death.★

AloneAtNight is a blog of short, creepy horror stories run / managed by David Kobb and Shawn Kobb. I recommend you read these tales with the lights on... 

If you're not scared enough, check out David and Shawn's books: Terrifying Tales: 13 Scary Stories for Children. It's sure to give you a chill, along with the second book in their series: More Terrifying Tales. 

Turn down the lights. Grab a flashlight, pull the blankets over your head, and prepare for a night of reading the scariest stories around.

Just repeat to yourself, "It's only make believe."

And, whatever you do, make sure you keep the closet door closed.

Why is your reflection in the mirror moving without you? What stalks the corn maze and will a group of friends make it out alive? Can you handle the bravery test and visit 13 cemeteries in one night? What would you do if you found a mysterious eye looking at you from the drain in your garage? All of these stories and more are hidden in the dark corners of More Terrifying Tales from the same authors that brought you Terrifying Tales: 13 Scary Stories for Children. Good luck...

#100WordHorror ★ AloneAtNight (Grandpa's Chair)

My grandfather passed away when I was 8 and my little brother was 2 or 3ish. He had this big Lazy Boy chair in the living room that he always planted himself in.

Everyone knew this chair was "grandpa's chair."

Anyway, we went down to my grandparent's house in Florida for a long weekend to attend the funeral, etc. We're all chatting the first night there in the living room, and my mom was sitting in the Lazy Boy chair.

My little brother goes up to my mom and says "Grandpa wants his chair back." My mom asks him where grandpa is, thinking he probably didn't understand death, to which he responds, "he's right behind you."

My mom BOLTED off that chair immediately.★

#100WordHorror ★ AloneAtNight (Mean Old Man)

I’ve always hated sounds more than actually seeing things because at least with seeing you feel it’s more something you can control.

I had an experience where my best friend and I stood outside her house when we were five or six, playing around for only a few minutes. It was dead quiet for some reason, like the quiet when it has snowed, even though she lived near a busy street and there were cars always passing.

Through the quiet we suddenly hear a man’s laugh right next to us but nobody was around. It sounded like a mocking laugh, and we looked around wondering where it came from. Then it got quiet again, and suddenly into our ears we hear a loud hissing “SHHH!”

We both screamed and ran inside as quickly as possible, and we didn’t go out for the rest of the day.

I was recently discussing that moment with my best friend and she told me that she would always see a mean old man at the foot of her bed at night when she lived in that house. He would tell her he was going to hurt her and her mother. Oh...and that house burned down pretty soon after our weird experience, for seemingly no reason at all.★
