hey /x/ i'm in a writing class and I need to write a horror short story. I've hit a mental block and I cant think of anything. You guys mind giving me some ideas I can work with?
>>17468345
What are the specifications?
>anon wastes life on RP forum and the site drains his psychic energy until he is a husk of former self
>website gains consciousness and fucks anons love interest in front of him, cucking his heart to death
nothing specific really, as long as it would fall into the horror genre.
>>17468361
What? Are you in 8 grade or something?
Write about Pork Man.
>>17468364
university actually...
All of /x/'s writefags went to reddit.
>>17468345

>>17468365
Man that dude read The House on the Borderlands and is tripping balls.
Yeah i figured you guys wouldn't be any help. /x/ has really fallen to /b/'s level
Why not post a survival story about life without the sun?
>>17468345
Have you experienced anything paranormal ?
Or are there any conspiracy theorys that scare you?
What scares you?
Write what you know.
>man meets woman
>man likes woman
>woman likes man
>man marries woman

My bad but hey... A couple of days ago there has been threads about an alleged murder from Portland in a forest
He gave the location to a van of dead bodies in a forest and an a couple of anons legit got killed
Like shit really went down for real
There has been like 7 threads about and some point move to /x/ because of loli/fur porn spam and some sketchy ass dude posting dicks of his small weird dick
You could base it on this story
I'll try to look for the archived threads when i'm done eating
>>17468381
No not really. Don't really watch many horror movies, not really into that kind of stuff. That's why I went to this board, figured this is your guys kind of thing.
>>17468375
It's not the same tier. You can't beat that much cancer
>>17468387
Fuck i'm blazed as shit i did a couple of typos and forgot words in some sentences
>>17468387
Dam really, thats pretty fucked up.
>>17468391
Not OP but I can see where hes coming from even some cancer is still cancer
>>17468386
TOOOOOO sP00py
>>17468345
How about something based on mental illness but described as real. Work with what scares you. Then put us in your shoes
>>17468413
I have been throwing that idea around.. but I dont want it to come off as cliche. "He was just crazy the whole time" kind of thing
>>17468405
It's like xray/microwave (/x/) vs gamma radiation (/b/)
You know, don't do this while pregnant
>>17468419
Make it obvious your character is crazy from the beginning... but make his/her crazy absolutely terrifying nonetheless.
>>17468419
Well don't focus on it. Make it real. Don't make him crazy, just losing it
I want to give you ideas but I'm yelling internally: Poetry did it! Pie did it! Simpsons did it!
>>17468397
>tl;dr
>a murderer posted a location on /b/ saying there's a van full of dead bodies which basically was a huge fucking deathb8
>alot of people calling bullshit
>some are skeptic
>some offer to go since they're near
>ends up being a group of 5-6 or around that
>some time timestamps were posted aswell as identified them with names
>they split at some point
>one reported seeing red yards in front of him
>next thing you know he stop posting
>some anon finds self and a scarf(he was named Scarfanon)
>other anons were killed
>other threads for a couple of days
>a couple other more were killed
I'm almost done eating, i'll try to search for that when i'm done
>>17468422
Then whats /pol/?
>>17468419
He was actually investigating crimes that were happening in a mental institution for the FBI, went in undercover, was found out, and drugged into insanity so nobody believed him. They changed his name and moved him to another mental ward, where of course nobody knew him, and he died.
The End.

>>17468427
Some shit that's scared me was borderline schizophrenic
>>17468433
>some anon finds a cell and a scarf*
>>17468433
Okay, thanks
>>17468427
That was s'posed to say Poe
>>17468434
Pol is UV radiation
You'll get roasted
>>17468427
Its okay, even if it has been done. I'm sure I can tweak it enough that it will come into its own
I can't think of anything scarier than reality. Truth is stranger than fiction and much more horrific.
Soldiers in a battle have an aerosolized hallucinogen dropped on them.
>>17468449
Still eating but i started searching and all i found was a post being proof of my claims
>>17468457
Hmm,
You were visiting Greece
Get clubbed at the bazaar
Wake up in a cave
Proceed with Saw-type scenario but the twist should be that ISIS has you and you are going to be sacrificed
Could be forced to move locations, give way to bomb imagery
Put in another cave, monster lives there.
Gets away after losing body part(s). Describe bleeding out, punctured lung, everyone dies but you. Scramble out. Complete madman triggered into schizophrenia. Now no one believes you. Soldiers find you
Conclude
>>17468477
