How do you write creepy stories

  • Over describe things
  • Under describe things
  • Fingers, teeth, and eyes
  • Short sentences in rapid succession build tension
  • Single sentence paragraphs build dread
  • Uncanny valley=things that aren’t normal almost getting it right
  • Third person limited view
  • Limited explanations
  • Rot, mold, damage, age, static, flickering, especially in places it shouldn’t be
  • Limited sights for your mc -blindness, darkness, fog, refuse
  • Real consequences
  • Being alone -the more people there are, the less scary it is
  • Intimate knowledge, but only on one side

I don’t know I just write scary things but I don’t know what I’m doing.

Troubled Souls – 1

Relationships – Swap Papgore, past Spicyhoney

Characters – Swap Asgore, Swap Papyrus, Swap Frisk

Tags – Pregnancy discussion, future Mpreg, future horror, nonbinary character, mute character, anxiety. We start out nice but the horror builds pretty fast.

Please note—at this time, I cannot tag for the fic on the whole, as it isn’t completed yet. If you’re concerned, then please DM me with specific questions or wait until Halloween, when this fic will be posted in its entirety on AO3 with all relevant tags. Until then, I can say this—

This fic contains references to BODY DYSMORPHIA, PREGNANCY TREATED AS HORROR, SOCIALLY UNACCEPTABLE EMOTIONS RELATED TO PREGNANCY AND HAVING CHILDREN, RELATIONSHIP TROUBLES, and DISCUSSION OF ABORTION AND/OR MISCARRIAGE (not played for angst).

Brace yourself.

Ghhhhhhh this is already awesome! Horror is very subjective, so this may not be horrifying for a lot of people… but oh, I’m feeling it already. Great set up with Frisk involved. Really excited for this, Kit!
