This is an interesting writing experiment! I've taken maybe 10 or 12 horror prompt ideas and mashed them all into one story. There is no good way to write a summary for something like this, but it will be creepy, (hopefully). 
This will develop into an actual story with original characters, so don't expect each chapter to be a "short scary story."
Since this is based off of writing prompts, (provided by your very own Wattpad Fright account) expect that there will be some cliche horror themes and/or dialogue. Other than what gave me the idea, this work is of my own creation.
The beautiful cover was created by leftie-has-hope, which I am so immeasurably grateful for!
As most stories on Wattpad are, I post as I write. If you want to contribute an idea as to what would make this story scare you, (whether it did or you want to be scared even more,) please comment or message me.All Rights Reserved
