A couple of years ago, writer Ehud Lavski and illustrator Yael Nathan began creating short comics and uploading them to the internet. Not only their comics are thought-provoking, but they are also quite scary stories filled with incredible plot twists.
In hopes to find the audience that these short creepy stories resonate to, Ehud and Yael have submitted their works to us at Bored Panda, and we are proudly publishing them for you to see. The short stories already have been read quite a few million times, and many people seem to have strong emotional responses after reading them.
You can also purchase the horror stories as digital and printed books for a small contribution.
Now scroll down below to read the captivating stories filled with dark humor, sensitive topics, and shocking narrative lines.

This is the content I want Bored Panda! This actually cured my boredom!
It's not only fun to read, but also incredibly thought provoking. It brings up important topics of debate.

This was amazing, every single one of them is just brilliant. I love your thinking and creativity, pure magic. :)
What an amazing storyteller! I want more! Your ideas are so original and fascinating. Mysterious, suspenseful, twist-endings, and WOW such beautiful creativity, who on earth wouldn't love these?! Rather than stick to one topic, you explore everything! Hats off! I will gladly pay some money to keep that world with the knight and shopkeeper alive again :P
Far from original really, but still cool. The one with the knight and shopkeeper is actually a book by Yahtzee called "Mogworld", check it out, it's really funny.

Ditto. What everyone else already said: these are fantastic! I love the unique style and the captivating story telling. So refreshing also, not another cutesy-like, 'relatable', poorly drawn, uninspired comic about mundane things. These are so creative and thought provoking. Love them.
Exactly my thoughts!! Less relatable and banal nonsense and more of such original and fascinating art on BoredPanda!

Absolutely brilliant! I would honestly pay to read these. I particularly loved 'Test' though I felt kinda sorry for the hero at the end.
These are all incredible! I love the art style and the twists and turns :o)
Not even sure which is my favourite! "Ark"? Or "Midnight radio"? Is it "Nintendo"? God, they are all amazing stories! A must see for every panda! You are amazing comic creator duo! You don't deserve to have your works read just 10 million times! You deserve, like, a billion times!
WOW .. really interesting and original material after a long time! A nice change from all those "relatable" everyday comics. Yeah, some are good, but recently it seems that everyone is doing them.
These stories are really amazing! I love the twists at the ends. But the thing is, I don't really get the ending of Test. The last panel kind of confuses me. Can someone please explain? ^^"
Instead of letting him sacrifice himself, the being stopped the bullet because he was so brave, and then he left him to give the planet more time.

I started reading expecting something good. But not THAT good. It blew up my expectations. Absolutely amazing. Respekt!
Amazing work, so impressed, got totally sucked in and couldn't stop reading!!
Yeh it seemed like a pretty blatant copy of westworld to me

I feel like the one "Hug" has to do with deleting a video game save file. I could never delete a save file from a game I loved, because to me the people were still living in that world, and erasing it would be like erasing everything for them. But hey that's just my theory. Also I love all the references in the shop at the beginning. But I love all of these, these are the kinds of things I want to see. "Relatable" comics is cute and all but this really gets my mind going
These are great. The link sources were a bit short, though. I had to dig around to find their actual active website: http://elcomics.tumblr.com/
Excellent writing and artwork, I especially like the auditor one. I want more!
These were great! Did anyone else have the takeaway from “Shh” that maybe that wasn’t the monster the the countdown brings but that it was trying to stop the boy from finishing the countdown and bringing the real monster?
Bored Panda needs more posts like this. I've been spending a lot of time here and this is the first time I was entirely captivated, unable to tear my eyes from the screen. These are beyond amazing.
Actually loved this! I usually get so bored going through comics but these were excellent
I've seen parts of these comics on piterest, and only one whole comic on there, and I'm very happy that I've finally read more!
that's brilliant! Well done :) I'm not sure to understand the first one.. how would you guys interpret it?
Some of these are actually really heartwarming, not really creepy at all. Others… I definitely shouldn’t be reading right now 😅
THESE ARE FLIPPING AMAZING, THE IMAGINATION WAS CRAZY! THIS IS AWESOME, THANK YOU FOR THIS
"Test and "Cold Embrace" were really good. "Test" could be made into a movie? But, generally all were well made. This was what I commented last year. I don't know if you remember me as only now I noticed that a good few videos that I've commented on were taken down and this video was one of them. I remember the stories to be so.... so... they're so wonderful and intriguing. It's hard to put into words. Both "Test" and "Cold Embrace" though stand out to me as they did last year in 2018. They have this kind of a mystery and a really great mind provoking aura that makes you want to keep reading and watching to see how the story unfolds. They also have some kind of a sadness to them which fits perfectly. To everyone of them actually. This is kind of like the guy who made the comics on Batgirl and Supergirl. Those were great too. Well, I gotta go and save some more comments. I cared about these at that time and I'll remember them if you remember me.......
Oh. My. Egyptian Goddess of Cats, Bast. These were all SO good! I may be speaking for everyone here, this is the kind of content we want on Bored Panda! Keep up the good work, creator.
Deep. Sad. Magic. Brutal truth. I am in awe of what I just red and of what will the next thing be. Live long and prosper!
please keep doing it, you're doing it so great! i just couldn't wait for more:)
Greetings from Greece, great work guyz keep it up...Absolutely brilliant! The Ark though was truelly epic!!!
These are absolutely brilliant! I'm so sad there aren't any more on here.
the level of creativity is insane, each one is perfect on its own, I don't mind reading thousands of these <3
Now this was worth the read, absolutely loved every comic that was introduced to me. Now I want more...
OMG before I read any more, I've got to comment on the first one, "Midnight Radio". This is an amazing, haunting, mysterious, atmospheric story that pulled me in and had me smiling at the end. Well done!
WoW, just WoW ! I really do enjoy each story ! And the art style match perfectly the whole atmosphere ! I need more, even before i finish the firt story i thought that if there was a Book, i would buy it right away.
in ¨Hug¨ you can see the Hylian shield and a blue turtle shell in the first panel!!
In the first panel of Hug, did anyone else notice the Master Sword and Hylien Shield from LOZ and the blue shell from Mario????
Wow. I am touched, terrified, and intrigued at the same time.
I never comment on anything but I must say that this is the best comics I've ever read. Ark and Test are just amazing. Please, do us all a favour and release a book on Amazon.
Just wow..i didn' get the time to read books coz too busy but when i read those stories i was captivated and so happy...I nearly forgot how amazing it is...thanks Bored panda..you hve a new fan now
I don't read comic books but man were these good!! You could make wonderful comic books and make money doing it! When you can read something for enjoyment and realize it has made you think. WOW! That's saying something.
Did someone notice the connection between the last two? That gave me creeps.
Amazing! If you were to turn them into a TPB I would buy it without any hesitation.
Hug reminded me of when City of Heroes’ servers went dark. It’s incredible how much is lost when a company pulls the plug on an MMO.
Awesome! Did anybody else think that in “Shhh” that maybe that wasn’t the monster that the countdown brings but that it was trying to stop the boy from summoning something that even it was afraid of?
This is what I am looking for!! Amazing stories, and beautiful illustrations!
Where do we sign up to buy more?? Amazing. Creative. Thrilling. Exciting. If I had more words, I'd e creating these instead of hoping to find more! Awesome
Hey you, amazing stories reminded me of my childhood summer vacations... Pls keep writing and sharing more and more.. All the best
Amazing stuff... Kudos to whoever came up with the stories... seriously would pay any dime you want us to pay to be able to read stuff like these...would love to read more...
Amazing stories !!! Beautiful imagination...plz come up with some more...
I don't really understand the ending of the last story, why did the guy and the women face look so surprise?
"Cold Embrace" reminds me of Faulkner's "Rose for Emily" and Poe's "Annabel Lee" The tagline to your work doesn't do it justice--these aren't twisted--they remind me of Twilight Zone and Poe's work--they are fantastical, supernatural, macabre....
I loved every single frame of this. The art, the details, the emotions on their faces... The sorting hat... All so incredible. But, as truly satisfying as it all was, my favorite part was the plumbus!
These comics were mesmerising! The graphics are high quality and the story lines had me hooked to the end just to see what the twists would be! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Really good, I couldn't stop reading untill I read them all. If you are interested in this kind of stories with unexpected twist and a bit of darkness, I suggest looking for False Positive webcomic.

Wow! You guys really go to some dark places. You should have a series like the Twilight Zone or something similar.
This is terrific! i would subscribe. The last a very clever variation on The Monkee's Paw. The kid is Jewish?? The second ala Neverending Story. But all very original in style and effect. Publish a book!
It's the cheaper option to give their children what they want, because they know they could summon demons otherwise.

The only thing that annoyed me was the last one. Only one girl in that group? And she doesn’t get to interact with any other girls and the group can’t have at least one other girl in it? Damn! You know it makes me think that because society is so damn sexist, that people don’t even blink when they see one girl in a group of guys, but if there is a group of women and only one guy, people question things. It’s b******t.
Most likely that is intentional. This story has a strong "Coming Of Age According To Stephen King" feel and inspiration, set on the early Nineties. The convention is, one girl on the group.
