It's Halloween! Let's see your best six-word scary stories!

A human impression in the ashes.

One grave. Two of us left.

Last time she visited, I died.

In all the wounds: baby teeth.

"But I'm not insane!"
"We know."

"Whose obituary is this?"
"Why, yours..."

Airlock cycling? But we're all here.

"Hello, fellow human!"
"What?"
"I mean..."

Nothing could stop the launch now.

"Resorted to cannibalism..."
"No! Embraced cannibalism!"


Heavily inspired by the shortest story tumblr

Remember, my Mother moves in today.

The IRS sent me a letter.

Honey, we really need to talk...

Had to eat my own leg.

That's not me on the phone.

Voices in my head got out.

Fell in and never hit bottom.

Carbon monoxide goes down really smooth.

Two reflections in mirror; home alone.

Under the bed and gone forever.

The television shows me my reflection.

---

The sink is full of spiders.

---

"The dog is barking."
"What dog?"

---

Knife cuts don't heal fast enough.

Mine:
"Nothing to fear, but fear itahhhhhhh!!!"
"You must carry it to term."
"After they died, I wasn't lonely."

And some from the internet:
Hungrily eating her child, she wept.
"This hole.. was made for me!"
"Such beautiful eyes. I kept them.”

I was dead the whole time.

Unknowingly sacrificed you to save myself.

The silence said "You're not alone."

No one breathes with me anymore.

There, that room. It is empty.

Step. Step. Step. Snap. Step. Step.

You are only what I eat.

The table is so clean now.

Once, then the lights went out.

Beauty is in the eye holder.

No one sleeps; no one wakes.

Disclaimer: I still feel like I don't believe in the name of the genre, but I did like coming up with short, powerful lines like this. Still not certain which way the last one works better... sleeps/wakes or wakes/sleeps? Thoughts?

I chose the path untrod.

We only have one radiation suit.

"Tasty?  Why of course you're tasty."

You read this, now you're mine.

I forgot to read the EULA.

I had lost the ability to count.

My eulogy was six words long.

RPOL won't load. Me or Jase?

The transdimensional gun worked too well.

You shouldn't have stolen my cupcake.

You didn't hallucinate the crying babies.

The monsters destroyed the last pills.

"Save our souls" the demon asks.

It's cupcakes all the way down.

"Trick or Treat", smiled the Demon.

But I was only following orders.

In the dark silence, something slithered.

I knew it wanted my soul.

One of us has to die.

Daylight gave way to everlasting darkness.

Now I’m going to kill you.

Mesa here !  Mesa called Jar-Jar Binks !

Your heart is on the scales!

It burns! The cruel morning sun!

Ia! Manifest not in that form!

Is there, in truth, no chocolate?

I prefer the ones that wiggle.

Her eyes reflected the fiery inferno.

It had no feet, only charring.

Its limbs were all on backwards.

Someone was at the penthouse window.

Greedily he inhaled the toxic fumes.

"My father in law wears mankinis."

Adam and Eve, you must leave.

It's OK. I'll be right back.

It was only a little infected.

You are only a little pregnant.

God left and never came back.

It sang the song of death.

It's mouth came off and charged.

The voices said to do it.

It's time lads, over the top!

The evidence all pointed to me.

The hardest part? Burying the body.

She was dead. She said so.


And the oldest are always best:

I think they left a few things out:  gerund (verb used as a noun), definite article (a, an, the), participle (essentially a non-finite verb).  I'm thinking there might be more, but can't recall off the top of my foggy noggin.

Obligatory on-topic content can be scary.  Let's see now...

Not that switch!  Turn that off!

Let me just reverse the flow...
