Write a 2-Sentence Horror Story. GO!

[Silvercrest]

I know it's natural to inject politics into these sort of things, but can we leave the political stuff, of any background, at the door for the sake of preserving the OP's thread?

I started it. Mea culpa; I should know better.

Let's pay some heed to Mrs. Silvercrest's entries instead. They're real and current. To wit, my next post.

 

[Silvercrest]

Conceive a medical drama where you suffer immensely and it just goes on and on.

Then, it actually happens.

 

[E-DUB]

We're fixing the holes in the boat as quickly as we can.

Now if those folks below would just stop boring new ones.

 

[Locutus of Bored]

I started it. Mea culpa; I should know better.

No need to apologize. Your entry was actually something to legitimately be concerned about, and you didn't get obnoxious with it.

The concept of this thread brings to mind the opening to Frederic Brown's short science fiction story "Knock," originally published in 1948.

There is a sweet little horror story that is only two sentences long:
"The last man on Earth sat alone in a room. There was a knock on the door..."

We're fixing the holes in the boat as quickly as we can.

Now if those folks below would just stop boring new ones.

The first sentence strikes me as a pretty good horror story on its own.

Roald Dahl had one that was super freaky.

Little girl vanishes from real world and mysteriously appears in a painting. Over the next sixty years, her image slowly grows older, and then finally vanishes from the picture.

 

[Mrs. Silvercrest]

My ulcer is acting up.
I have to have another tube down the throat test, number 3 now!

Make sure you get your card punch. The 10th one is free!
And if they offer to do a colonoscopy at the same time, make sure they do your throat first before the other end.

Their conversations quickly turned to how terrible other groups of humans are.

My boyfriend killed my character off on his show The Orville. Now he's dating someone younger than me.

 

[Bry_Sinclair]

The bride radiated nothing but joy on her big day. It was clear as day through the scope of my sniper rifle.

Hmm, maybe more thriller than horror, but it was the first thing that popped into my head. I'll keep trying.

 

[Bry_Sinclair]

Hang on, just thought of something more horrific:
Today was going to be a great day, nothing back could happen. Miles O'Brien told himself as he headed off to work.
