Lemmy Scare You! A community for sharing short scary stories.

Inspired by r/nosleep, but without the "Everything here is true" and "You can't criticize the OP" rule. Post your scariest original short stories here.

Rules are simple:

1. Be nice, criticize constructively, no name-calling.
2. No obvious AI generated stories, or other spam.
3. Everything posted here is creative fiction, any similarity to real life is pure coincidence.
4. Prompts are allowed, but should be prefaced with "[WP]"
5. Collaborative storytelling is fun, so if you'd like to continue your own story or other people's story as a series in the comments, start your comment with [CHAIN]
6. Troll/Parody Stories would be allowed on Sundays, but the title should start with "[PARODY]"
