WIN 20 STEEM - 2 Sentence Horror Stories Contest # 4 (Original Contest)

in contest •  8 years ago 


I have decided that since there was so much interest in the scary stories next week the theme of this contest will change, but we will do one more horror themed contest before switching genres.

I really enjoy the horror and scary genre, and some of these may not be for the faint of heart, but the gif above is from a wonderful short horror film you can find on youtube. However, I always want to keep Steemit interesting and introduce contests and engaging opportunities that I want to see here in our thriving, growing diverse community. I don't have much STEEM to give, but it's always important to give back, whether we have a little or a lot. So let's run to it!


RULES

How scary can you write a story within a two sentence frame? In order to be a valid entrant, please be sure to follow my other profile @peacemaker for more stories and other topics and Submit your 2 sentence horror story below in the comments section for it to be a valid entry. I will be now making this a weekly contest, maybe I'll rotate out some different contests as well. The deadline to submit is Sunday June 19th, 2017 at 11:59pm Germany time, so anyone entering on Next Monday will not be a valid entrant. One entry per person so give it your best shot. There are no length restrictions to a sentence as long as your two sentences are grammatically structured and readable. Don't rush, take your time, and check for spelling mistakes as it might ruin my experience reading your horror story on the first time through. Winners will be announced Monday. Please resteem this to spread the word and get more participants involved.

That should give you a more than enough time to think up something creative with a nice twist. I look forward to being spooked by your mini worlds of imaginative terror.

Check my previous posts on my @peacemaker & @verbal-d account for examples of a 2 sentence horror story

Vacancy Guaranteed

Hey man! I got really inspired for this one here it is:

When they say:"cooperate with us, don't go crazy" run, as far and as fast as possible, they don't have mercy and the ones they've caught wished they never had gone out, just remember: run, stay together and if anyone gets separated and caught...

Remembered Daniela what her mother had told her a few hours back, now with foreign fingers on her mouth, bruises and wounds in her back, her life as she knew it was about to end.

I even made a post about it you want to know more, this story its based on a true story

Click here

Thank you for your scary situation-based on a true story entry, however this has many sentences inside. I count about 5-6 sentences. The rule is 2 sentences for a horror story entry to be valid. When you break it down into two grammatically structured sentences, I will add your entry as a valid entry when you fix it. Thanks

OH ok , let me edit!

okay great, 2 sentences :) It says it in the title my friend lol

Done Let me know !

Thanks for the editing, I shall now add you to the list on the updated entries

The group went skinny dipping in the lake after enjoying their drinks and barbecue. Half a mile away, a man on a boat is dumping out parasitic toxins that eat their hosts from the inside out.

Thank you for your horrifying entry bro, no more lake parties for me, I'll have my barbecues in the comfort of my home or anywhere on dry land lol

Great contest, have no inspiration for the time being.

No worries, maybe you will think of something within the week while you still have time, if not, then the next contest next monday will be a new theme.

Hey @verbal-d! Sorry to crash this party with the wrong costume on! It's just that papa-pepper said you might know the answer to my question. Is it possible to upload audio files to Steemit posts? Thanks brother. :-)

No worries my friend, yes you are able to upload audio files to steemit posts through Soundcloud.com by using the Share button for the track you upload on their websiteand copying and pasting the Embed Code into your Steemit post maker here on this website. Check out one of my recent music posts here to see what I mean. It will show you the soundcloud player in my post.

Thank you so much! 😊 Have a blessed week and beyond.

You're most welcome, you too :)

Many hands make light work, and there were plenty of willing workers, and their little hands were all so adept with hammers and nails after so many years of building toys. They were all so eager and efficient, their rhythmic pounding began to sound like a percussionist accompanying the sweet-voiced tinkling bell sound of Santa's screams.

Thank you for your original agonizing Christmas horror entry, I don't feel bad for Santa at all lol Sounds like the little workers were fed up with the working conditions and constant demands.

:)

I went to bed after putting the kids to safely sleep. Woke up at 5am to cold air, the front door wide open. and an empty house.

Thank you for your chilling entry dear, I don't even want to fathom something like that.

"I awaken to a strange man lurking over me in my bed. I scream so loud, I lose my vocal chords, he runs, I call police and nothing happens!!!"

Above horror is an actual situation with a dear friend who sings church songs for a living and teaches kids choirs. She is in the middle of their end of school year concerts, as a result, can not work and can not talk right now.

After calling the police, they say she can not file stalking order because she doesn't know guy.. She brings a friend over for protection and to help process this scary scene.

Intruder comes back two hours later to pound on neighbors door, while peeping in her house..

They call police again, by the time they show up hours later, the man is gone.

This happened, this week in Eugene, Oregon, and it is a horror story, still continuing. They have since identified the man, who is very unstable on pharmaceuticals according to his dad, and this is his thing, wandering the world lost.

May these lost souls find there way in this wild darkness of consciousnesses. There seems to be enough horror on our planet, perhaps we could focus on the nice stories for next contest @verbal-d?

if we entered something last week and it lost can we enter it again?

  ·  8 years ago (edited)

Yes you could, but since I am the judge and I didn't pick it last week, I wouldn't recommend re entering it for this week as I would suggest you to enter something new and fresh. Best of luck to your entry and what you choose to do. :)

in the meantime i thought of a new one can i enter it now?

Yes you can enter now. The contest has begin and will end this upcoming Sunday, the winner will be announced Monday and a new contest begins next Monday but it will most definitely be a new Themed contest not related to horror or scary things next Monday

Oh! Got it @verbal-d! Following you now.

Okay great, thanks make sure you're following my @peacemaker account before you submit your 2 sentence entry. :)

Yes ittttttt's back lol ~

Yes indeed, give it your best shot bro!

oh you know i will lol.

I already wrote one the second I saw this. However, I'm gona take my time this round.. I think I submitted a weak one last contest so G2 come up with something way better for round 4!

Yeah you will get something going, i suggest you watch some short horror films on youtube. Take your time bro :) This horror theme ends for this week, I'll introduce a new theme next week and the horror theme will work its way back around later

Okay, let's go with this one:

While they were alone in the back room, Angelica finally mustered up the courage to ask her co-worker, a handsome sort of fellow with badass tattoos why he had been jailed for 20 plus years . The man grinned and responded, “I murdered several girls about your age…” Angelica froze in terror while the man spoke and moved slowly towards her: “don’t worry, I don’t kill anymore” he said nonchalantly, and as her nervousness subsided, he leaned in and whispered “but I don’t kill any less.”

Thank you for your very creepy and chilling entry bro, curiosity killed the cat and it seems he is about to end her shift early lol

haha, yep. I actually called the story "Dangerous Crush." "Curiosity killed the cat" is a way better title tho.

Both are good :)

I LOVE that you're doing this. I'm too long winded though :)

Thank you very much, but you should really check out my sentence stories. My 2 sentences are long winded too lol but they are grammatically correct so I can cover more details. Give this contest a shot!

Looking forward to all the spine tingling entries!!

Me too!

She awoke in the middle of the night to the sound of rain spattering on the roof of the tent that she was sharing with 5 other campers. She was suddenly overcome by a very strange but distinct feeling of being watched and as her anxiety peaked she opened her eyes and to her horror she met the bone chilling stares of all 5 other campers as they stood there gazing down at her with pale faces and unblinking eyes.

Thank you very much for your chilling camping entry, I love camping but this would definitely ruin my experience to see pale faced freaks staring me down with ill intent. I shall add you to the list above.

With a big smile on his face, grandpa kissed my mom goodbye and turned to me without losing his happy demeanor. As she walked back to the car, he gave me an unusually strong hug and whispered, “boy, that is not your mother.”

Thank you for your mysterious entry, that was a close call. Maybe he would have been kidnapped if not for his grandpa coming to his rescue. I shall add you to the list above.

Thanks, verbal-d!

Rolling carelessly back and forth in my bed alone made me almost fall on the floor. I found myself freezing either from the failed fall or from those cold hands who catch me.

i woke up in the morning and saw a picture of me sleeping in my phones gallery.I live alone

i woke up with a sound of a woman on the baby monitor thinking it was my wife.Little did I know,she was sleeping next to me

I had no memeory except for waking up in the cemetery and roaming around it.i walked around and saw a shocking sight,my own grave.

Hey there! Here i my entry. I hope y'all enjoy it:

Oh, so swiftly she danced under the moonlight, so dainty her figure swung next to the window, with so pale her skin leaving a trail under the moonlight.

Only her eyes broke the illusion, those empty, gaping, holes I saw when she turned at me, before her screeches started, before she climbed on my bed.

Thank you for your creepy and suspenseful entry, I would be so afraid witnessing that from outside my bedroom window. Looks like he is truly in for a ONE NIGHT STAND lol Please follow @peacemaker account so you can be considered a valid entry, once you do this, I shall add you to the list of valid entries. Thanks

Following you now! Sorry. Heh.

No worries thanks
