Welcome to the Band of the Red Hand's Halloween Event!

 

Whether you have come from towerhigh or low, you are welcome here! Participate and join in the fun.

 

 

 

In this thread, the aim is to post the scariest story you can possible write... by using only 20 words.

You may use less words, but no more.

You may continue on from the previous post.

 

I'll start us off. 

 

 

It was a dark night, and you could hear the wolves howling in the distance. The weather was building up

to the wildest tornado ever. The wolves were getting closer because they were looking for shelter from the storm.

You've already taken what shelter there is - those wolves sense a haven and you...and can scent your fear.

No matter what you must be brave. You know that on Halloween the veil between the living and the dead...

...is open and, with courage and secret knowledge, it is possible to commune with those already departed and learn...

... all their secrets. Mayhaps they will know what to do when wolves and tornado's combine. The shelter didn't feel very...

inviting.  It actually felt kind of cold and dismal, like a sanctuary for the dead. Could this be their meeting...

(not continuing the story but next one can lol )

A cold shiver ran down her spine. She knew she was watched. A twig broke and her heart beat faster.

..place? The wind was howling, suddenly your friend burst into the shelter. She wasn't alone. Behind her you saw an

enormous bat swooping low. It landed on your friend's shoulder, and your friend did not seem to notice it. "What?"
