Children's Playground

This week's scary story I've got is actually true.  It's called "Children's Playground."  The narrator has just moved to a quiet and peaceful town, with a big park right in the middle.  On a Friday night, right after school, he and his two friends, Billy and Tom, decided to head over to play a game of "Murder."  The rules were the same as hide and seek, but when a hider was found, the seeker had to "kill" them.  The playground had an "endless maze" of tunnels, which is where the 8 year old narrator decided to hide.  After 10 minutes, he finally gets bored and yells out to Billy, who was the seeker, that he gives up and he's coming out.  He hears shuffling at the end of the hall, but what answers back wasn't Billy at all...  The 4 E's in this story is Emotion as you found out just what happens to the boys, and knowing its a true story.

She found her way into my home

This scary story is called "She found her way into my home."  It starts off with the narrator talking about how someone's stalking him.  When he first passed by the backdoor and saw her facing out towards the forest at the edge of the yard, he figured she was just a friend of the downstairs neighbor.  The second time he passed the door and saw her, he made the mistake of opening the door and calling out to her... The next time he saw her, she wouldn't be facing away.  The 4 E's used in this story is Emotion as every time he passes the door, you worry whether or not she'll still be facing the forest.

We Don't Talk About Sarah

The new scary story I read this week is called "We Don't Talk About Sarah."  It starts off with the narrator begging their parents for a little sister.  Over and over they'd ask, until one day, the parents finally bring home a little girl named Sarah.  Everything was going great, despite Sarah crying constantly.  One day though, when the narrator came home from school, Sarah was missing.  When the narrator asked their parents where she had gone, they forbid her from speaking of Sarah and begin removing all of Sarah's stuff from the house.  Until nothing was left of her in the house. 
The 4 E's used in this story is Emotion as the little hints left in the writing slowly come together to show what really happened to Sarah...

I now live in a one story house

This story's called "I now live in a one story house."  It starts off talking about the apartment the narrator and his sister, Leanne, live in. All around the building are signs that say to be careful at the top of the steps and the management has strict rules to always keep your door locked at night.  The narrator goes on to explain how people have been hearing there door handle jingling, as if someone is trying to open it, and they write it off as management staff even though they deny it.  When the power goes out at night and the narrator leaves to get water, he finally understands why all these rules are in place.

Mason

Today, I read a story called "Mason."  This story is about a girl finding love after getting hit by a truck and ending up in the hospital.  This is listed as a horror story, so be warned. After waking from her coma, she meets her roommate, Mason, and soon develop a connection.  Unfortunately, they both have a 60% chance to beat their illness and the odds aren't looking great for Mason. 
I really enjoyed this story, it had an incredible plot twist that added even more to the story. One of the four E's used in this story was Emotion.

Noises

This weeks scary story is called "Noises." The narrator starts off talking about his life and his job and  how he's never been happier.  Recently, though, he's started to become more aware of the little noises people make.  Whether it's a little cough, or a sniff, he starts hearing them more and more often.  It starts to make him angry. All he can focus on are the noises. One after another, they don't stop.  If one person sniffs, another one sniffs right after them.  He gets more and more upset with each sound that goes by.  The situation escalates as the narrator begins to believe his coworkers are taunting him with the noises.  He becomes enraged with the noises, they're all he thinks about.  He'd do anything to make them stop. The narrator becomes so angry with the noises, until he finally realizes the solution to his problem.  He know knows exactly what to do to stop the noises. Forever.

Why they're called Sixes

I've got another story recommendation this week.  It's called "Why they're called Sixes."  This ones also another horror story.  This ones a bit different as the point of view is the narrator acting as if he's talking to someone else.  I think that factor adds to the overall creepiness of the story as it feels like the narrators telling you real events that happened. The story is so full of emotion because of this, and really adds to this story about a boy whose life is full of ghosts and creatures called "Sixes."

911 Operator

This week I've got another scary story.  It's called "I'm a 911 operator."  The whole story is written like a 911 call, which adds to the creepiness.  It starts with a man calling 911 about a strange man walking in circles in his front yard.  From there the story escalates and gets even creepier and terrifying.  I would definitely recommend this to those who like a good scary story.

How do you kill a monster?

Today I read a story called "How do you kill a monster?"  If you like creepy stories, I'd definitely recommend reading this one.  This story was intense and very well written.  The story starts off with the narrator re-watching a trial about a little boy who was murdered.  He goes on to talk about the rest of the events in the trial that weren't show on the video.  Each word of the story had me even more curious and anxious for the next.  From the very beginning I was hooked and couldn't stop reading.  I started worrying about the actions of the narrator and his thoughts as the story progressed.  By the end of the story I was actually shocked.  The ending was wonderful and such a surprise,  I was really not expecting it.  You're in for a surprise if you read this one.

Donald Trump

I recently read a New York Times article about Donald Trump and his newest insults to others.  He continues to insinuate President Obama was not born in the U.S. He even falsely accused Hillary Clinton of being the first to accuse President Obama of not being born in the United States.  This wasn't the only mention of him insulting women though.  He mocked an African-American pastor when she welcomed him to her church, and again referred to Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts as "Pocahontas", because of her Native American roots.   He even told Hillary's Secret Service men to disarm themselves and "see what happens to her."  He's now also using his campaign to promote his own hotel.  It seems he just keeps getting worse and worse.

The Rapist Pastor

I recently read an article about a Pastor raping a teenage girl, and to say the least, I was disgusted.  He raped this poor girl who came to him for guidance and instead of helping, he traumatized her.  She's beginning to suffer from PTSD and her grades have taken a serious hit because of it.  And as if the rape and PTSD wasn't enough, the church allegedly asked her to apologize to the Pastors wife.  The victim is suppose to apologize to her rapists wife? Reading that made me livid, and the church should be ashamed of themselves.  Fortunately, the verdict for this rapists trial was just and he was sentenced to 10 years in prison, unlike another Ohio rapist, Brock Turner, who only served three months.  Although it's great that he is now behind bars and not able to hurt anyone else, this poor girl will have to live with the memories and trauma caused by this man.
