A Terror in My Closet
Every night, when the stars sets and shadows creep across my room, a feeling of unease washes over me. I can't shake this weird feeling that something is watching me from the back of my closet. I know it's just my imagination, but the belief lingers in the back of my head.
Sometimes, when I close my lids, I can almost sense its breath on my neck. It's a cold sensation that makes me want to scream. I try to distract myself with books, but the anxiety always creeps back in. I know I should just deal with it, but my soul pounds so loud that all I can do is tremble under my sheets.

Underneath the Floorboards
There's an unease that settles in when you hear a creak from underneath the floorboards. It whispers of secrets hidden deep within the structure, waiting to be unearthed.

The path, if you could call it that, had faded long ago, swallowed by the dense undergrowth. Gloom stretched out before me, pulsating with an unnatural life of their own.
My heart throbbed in my chest, a frantic drumbeat against the quiet. here Every rustle of leaves, every snap of a twig, sent shivers down my spine. I was prey in this menacing wilderness, hunted by an unknown terror.
