Short Horror Streaks

It was a dark and stormy night, and Emily was alone in her small cottage in the woods. She had always enjoyed the solitude and the peacefulness of the forest, but tonight, something felt different. As the rain beat down on the roof and the wind howled through the trees, Emily began to feel uneasy.

Suddenly, she heard a knock at the door. It was a soft and timid knock, but it sent shivers down Emily's spine. She cautiously approached the door, wondering who could possibly be out in the storm on a night like this.

When she opened the door, she saw a figure standing in the shadows. It was a man, soaked to the bone, with his face obscured by the hood of his jacket.

One night, a group of friends decided to test this theory and explore the abandoned cabin. As they entered, they noticed that the cabin was empty, except for a mysterious note that read, "Leave now or suffer the consequences."

Ignoring the warning, the friends continued exploring the cabin. Suddenly, they heard strange noises coming from upstairs. They slowly crept up the stairs and found a locked door at the end of the hallway.

One of the friends managed to pick the lock and they entered the room. The room was pitch black, and they could barely make out the silhouette of a figure in the corner. Suddenly, the figure began to move towards them, and the friends realized that it was a ghost.

Panic set in as the ghost moved closer and closer. Suddenly, the friends
