The Night was Finally Over
It was a Friday night and the ball game had just ended. It was time for my date to take me home. We were amongst the first cars to pull out.We both had work the next day and I found nothing about him appealing. A little over a mile down the road, we had a flat tire. It was raining heavily and he was STILL complaining about how bad his life was. This night had started just as bad as it was ending. My date was late, we missed the first half of the game and my team lost. He dropped me off a little after midnight and I needed to be up by 5 am. This was the worst night ever. He sent text messages and voice messages but I ignored them all. Finally. he got the message and my worst one nighter was just a bad memory.

Write a horror story in two sentences.
“The 3 types of terror: The Gross-out: the sight of a severed head tumbling down a flight of stairs, it's when the lights go out and something green and slimy splatters against your arm. The Horror: the unnatural, spiders the size of bears, the dead waking up and walking around, it's when the lights go out and something with claws grabs you by the arm. And the last and worse one: Terror, when you come home and notice everything you own had been taken away and replaced by an exact substitute. It's when the lights go out and you feel something behind you, you hear it, you feel its breath against your ear, but when you turn around, there's nothing there...”---Stephen King
