Two-sentence horror stories
A site I check out regularly posted about Frederic Brown, author of this famous two-sentence horror story:
"The last man on Earth sat alone in a room. There was a knock on the door..."
and of course there are all sorts of sites about two-sentence horror stories.
I think this bored could come up with some doozies. Do it!
As I lay in bed, drugged up and hazy, I thought that the operation had gone pretty well.
My sis nudged the door open to check on me, gnawing on my barbecued meniscus, dribbling sauce down her chin.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

I sat in the big, cat-clawed chair with my trusty laptop parked where it is supposed to be and read the Bored. Then I came across the thread that made me piss my pants....

Krox comments on his shower scene with Marley in Escape From AlcaBored:


I'm not sure if I should be excited or embarrassed by my role in this. Of course if I have to have a bitch, Marley would be at the top of my list.

Re: Two-sentence horror stories
Two sentences? O.k., I'll try...
There was a wisteria vine blooming for the second time that summer on a wooden trellis before one window, into which sparrows came now and then in random gusts, making a dry vivid dusty sound before going away: and opposite Quentin, Miss Coldfield in the eternal black which she had worn for forty-three years now, whether for sister, father, or nothusband noone knew, sitting so bolt upright in the straight hard chair that was so tall for her that her legs hung straight and rigid as if she had iron shinbones and ankles, clear of the floor with that air of impotent and static rage like children’s feet, and talking in that grim haggard amazed voice until at last listening would renege and hearing-sense self-confound and the long-dead object of her impotent yet indomitable frustration would appear, as though by outraged recapitulation evoked, quiet inattentive and harmless, out of the binding and dreamy and victorious dust. But wait, there's more!
