Chamomile Writes - Tumblr Posts

Even being the admin of a writer’s blog, I don’t do that much personal writing (or not as much as I would like), so I used this prompt list to challenge myself! I gave myself 24 hours to make one piece for every prompt, then brought them all together in a 3,800 word short fiction collection. 

Anyway, I had fun, so I hope other people take this as an opportunity to do the same in the future. (link to fic)

Can you give me some horror one-shot ideas?

“My options are either throw myself into the leviathan’s mouth, or be stabbed and then thrown into the leviathan’s mouth – wow, what a wonderful choice selection.” AU 

Character A and Character B are in a fight to the death. Character B was given a drug by Character C (the villain/sadist mastermind) that is causing Character B to hallucinate and see Character A as a horrifying monster. Character A is still in a sane state of mind and is trying to convince Character B to put down the knife. 

“This is my final journal entry – I’m trapped in my cabin while something continues to circle outside, cackling and trying to get inside.” AU 

Character A works as the night security guard for a research center and they keep seeing something dash across the camera monitors. Character A can’t get a good enough look to see what it is – they only know that it’s making its way toward the room where Character A is. 

The last thing that Character A remembers is being involved in a horrible accident. The next thing that Character A knows, they’re sitting at a table with God/Death/the Devil/etc. looking over a file with Character A’s name on it. 

“You have 10 seconds to tell me something that only the real Daniel would know, or else I’ll pull the trigger.” AU
