    • The Tell-Tale Heart'' by Edgar Allan Poe. I’ve said before and I’ll say again: any list of mine that can open with Poe will open with Poe. “The Tell-Tale Heart” is a classic for a reason.
    • The Semplica-Girl Diaries'' by George Saunders. This is a story I like to point to when people say literary fiction doesn’t “do” horror. Sure they do; they just rarely call it that.
    • The Colour out of Space'' by H. P. Lovecraft. True confession: I’m not a huge Lovecraft fan. I appreciate him, and some of his stories I really like, but I’m just not quite on the same train other fans seem to be on.
    • Ortolan'' by Dane Huckelbridge. “Ortolan” is one of my favorite stories in recent years. I read it because it appeared on the Bram Stoker Award preliminary ballot a couple years back, and, frankly, I think it should’ve won.

    “Making toast late one night facing the kitchen bench eating for a good 5-10mins. Cleaned up and turned around and every single cupboard door and cutlery drawer were open. They were all closed when I went into the kitchen, and there was no way anyone could have snuck in and done it because I was home alone. I also didn’t hear them open in the time ...

    “Our old house was on a corner, and in lieu of a backyard had a side yard, with a small deck that wrapped around the back. The dining room had patio doors that lead out to the back and we would have BBQs and such back there. When I was about 14, we only had one desktop computer and one laptop for the family. My brother and I would fight over the de...

    “I worked from 2pm – 11pm at a gas station In one of the nicer cities around here and I had a gentlemen look me in the eyes and ask if I’m enjoying my last day on earth? Walked away before I could answer.” — atStevens98

    “I came home pretty late one night and my roommates bedroom was shut and I assumed she was sleeping already but I saw something out of the corner of my eye in the kitchen, I said her name but she didn’t answer. I didn’t think anything of it so I walked into my room and before I turn the light on something whispered “I’m still here.” I turned on the...

    “We (me, my wife and my 3 yo son) are sitting in the food court at Costco. There is another family with a ~4-5 yo girl sitting behind us. My son looks at me and says “Do you see that girl over there…..I’m going to teach her a lesson.” So I am taken aback for a second then I think he must intend to teach her numbers or some other normal thing you te...

Out of nowhere she gets a call from a representative of one of her very big private clients to sell all the stocks of a big airline and move the liquidity somewhere else. No buts, and if needed they coul...

    “I went camping by myself in Maine, one night I woke up at like 3am. Not being able to fall asleep I just laid there listening to the woods. Then I heard a faint hello…. I was petrified. I felt so vulnerable in the tent. I never figured out what it was.” — bromandude69

    “When I was 17 and worked in retail as a cashier, I had a very old couple come through my line buying a wok. The husband who was at least 85 started making conversation with me about the wok, and asked if I liked Chinese food. “Yeah, I like Chinese.” “Do you want to go out with me to get some Chinese?” He winks at me. “N-no sir.” “Oh. Well.” He loo...

    “The summer after I graduated from high school, I left work early and went up to my parent’s cabin in northern Michigan. Spent that night at the beach watching the sunset. Once the sun went down and it became nearly pitch black (no light pollution) I got to my car and started driving down the highway (M22). After about 10 seconds of being at speed,...

    “This actually happened fairly recently. I was home alone one day with my dog and 2 of my friend’s dogs. Out of nowhere, they all start barking and looking up towards our loft. As they’re quieting down, I hear someone in a mocking, calm tone say, “Bark.” They start going crazy again and I decide it’s time for a long evening walk.” — themanaroundher...
