You don't need a long story to feel your feet grow cold, just two sentences are enough.
You don't have to drive a fast car or go on a roller coaster ride to feel the adrenaline rush that you crave sometimes. A good and creepy horror story can do the job for you.
When it comes to horror, you don't always need jump scares or a head peeping to catch a glimpse of you when you're alone, the mere fact that the cup of tea you left behind is empty by the time you came back from the other room, is enough to send chills down your spine, right? It's the little things which are the scariest.
Here is a compilation of classic two-sentenced horror stories for you that leave your head messed up for the whole night. Get ready to feel the hair at the back of your neck as you go through these.
