There are many reasons why one might enjoy a good horror story. One, for example, is the adrenaline rush, after being scared. The other is that some of us like to experience an overwhelming amount of complex emotions. It also helps, that the scary stories are not happening to you, so you can still feel relatively safe while experiencing it. And bigger doesn't always mean better, especially when it comes to scary stuff. Sometimes it's the small things that are the most terrifying, like an unexpected spider in the bathtub, for instance, a creaking floorboard in the dead of night, or Donald Trump's tiny hands. Those are the real-life horror stories that give us an adrenaline rush.
The classic of the horror genre is, of course, the two-sentence scary stories. So when Reddit user 'meiguess' asked others "What is the best short horror story you can come up with in two sentences" - the answers scared everyone to death. You might want to keep the lights on for this one. From short scary stories about being buried alive to working the night shift alone (or not...?), this compilation of creepy stories definitely has it all. And if you are a fan of two-sentence horror stories, we promise, this post will leave you scared mindless.

A cat farted in my ear while I was sleeping. I have a dog.
i couldn't stop laughing and someone next to me asked why i was laughing and i said "a cat farted in my ear!"
What did they say when you told them? Don't keep us in suspense!
Lol, your response was even funnier than the original statement!!
Ha ha! Aw this neutralised the scariness! Loved it!
How the hell do you know it was a cat?!? Do you go around sniffing animal bottoms for fun?
Lmao
Wait how did you know if it was a cat if you were sleeping?

"I looked in the mirror: my face was not exactly as piece of beauty, the eyes being asymmetric, the nose slightly crooked. How strange, though, it was to suddenly have a face."
This needs more upvotes. I like the take from the spirit side!
