I came across a post of spooky dialogue prompts on tumblr and thought I'd share. It might be handy for those who have signed up for
spook_me, or if you are just looking to write a scary story for Halloween. Depending on how you read them, the prompts can be as funny as they are creepy!
- "Look, I dressed up as you."
- "Oh my god, I think the crystal ball is working."
- "That wasn't there before."
- "I dare you to go down there."
- "If you can't wake up from the nightmare, maybe you're not asleep."
- "Y-your eyes, what's happening to your eyes?"
- "That costume really is convincing."
- "I don't believe in ghosts."
- "Hey, this isn't funny."
- "Do you think keeping your eyes shut will keep you safe?"
- "You've heard the stories about what happened in that house, right?"
- "There's no one here."
- "He was right behind me."
- "I swear, that door was locked a minute ago."
- "I think we're lost."
