This is really disturbing. Good job on this one and good luck!

It takes a lot for me to get into a scary story, so don't take it the wrong way when I say that I found this to be somewhat average. Some key things I look for are subtlety and suspense, and this didn't have very much of either, as far as my opinion goes. It was plenty vague, but not in a way that I would call subtle. There were plenty of disturbing/creepy moments, but they generally had little buildup, or an underwhelming follow-through.

Granted, I'm far from a horror connoisseur, so take everything I've said with a heaping tablespoon of salt.

1500070 Honestly, considering I've never written a horror story before, and this was written in less than a week off the back of a concept I was never quite sure of myself, 'average' is a complement :twilightsmile:. I'll probably go back and give it a good polish, as I'm not entirely satisfied with this as it is either, but I'll leave that for a little bit later.

Well. That got exponentially creepier, didn't it? :twilightoops:

1689959 That was the idea! :pinkiecrazy:

Well, this is rather creepy. Though
The ending :twilightsmile:wow
