gimme some horror prompts, please!

[badbastion]

So, I fell asleep and then I woke up three hours later because of nightmares, so of course I'm craving horror. However, I've already read all of my horror books and ebooks, and I've listened to ALLLLL of pseudopod (if you're a fan of horror and podcasts, go and give them a listen! The host, Alisdair, is FANTASTIC, and while the stories are *sometimes* not super, the readers almost always are.) and I don't feel like combing through the garbage at r/nosleep to find something good. I'm not really in the mood for reading, anyway, even if it's something short. (There's a fic I wanted to read that seemed right up my alley, but I closed the tab and now I forgot the name of it or who wrote it, but it was too long for my current attention span.)

Plus, Halloween's coming up. Yay Halloween!

Long story short, I feel like trying to write some horror. Do you have any prompts for me? a couple of words, an outline, SPN, original, it doesn't matter. I don't know if I'll be successful at writing horror, but I'd love to try, I just can't think of where to start /o\

Thank yoooou!

Also I am EVEN MORE HEARTBROKEN that Silent Hills was cancelled, because I just found out that my favorite artist, Junji Ito, was working on the project. Oh, Woe! TT___TT

It looks like a welt on your arm, until you pull it out and your vein comes with it and you're hastily stuffing everything back in, meanwhile your boss is knocking on the bathroom door and asking if you're okay.

You break into a house to steal the tv and there's a painting of you over the fireplace, a painting of you screaming. The room is empty save for a red strip of light beneath the closet door. The hangers knock inside and the knob turns.

You wake up and the body's gone. You can hear his voice, or at least something mimicking his voice, coming from the air vent in the cellar. "Help meeeeee."
