Mastering Fear in Just Two Sentences

There’s something deliciously unsettling about a good two-sentence horror story. With just a handful of words, you can twist the ordinary into the uncanny, build dread in a single breath, and leave a reader haunted long after they’ve moved on. Micro-fiction isn’t just fun—it’s a masterclass in precision. Every word matters. Every beat counts.

​

This section is all about sharpening that skill. Every other month, I’ll drop a fresh set of prompts on the blog—fuel for your nightmares, ready to be shaped into something wicked. And if a prompt sparks something truly eerie, you can submit your own two-sentence horror story for a chance to be featured in the Reader Spotlight. (Submission rules below!)

So, take a prompt, twist it into something chilling, and let’s see what darkness you can craft in just two sentences.
