Don't open that door! Psycho made slasher films a hallmark of the horror genre; explore iconic hackers, slashers, and chainsaw-wielding psychopaths, from the safety of your living room.

Timberline. Top Story - September 2022.
The silence is absolute, as if time never began here and never will. How can I describe it? As if a wall of glass has been placed by the great hand of a God in the midst of the forest, and no living thing may pass. The trees crowd against their limit, aching to reach into the barren land, and their longing embitters them. They grow twisted, their bark black and limbs contorted.

From a house full of dead bodies to a town terrorized by a clown, these stories will send a chill down your spine. The House of Horrors: There’s nothing scarier than finding a house full of dead bodies. In 2011, that’s exactly what a group of police officers discovered in a house in Autos sur del Corral. The house was filled with rotting corpses stuffed into beds, closets, and even bags full of acid. Investigators believe that the person responsible for the bodies is a woman named Natalia Garcia, who lived in the house with her son. The police first went to the house after receiving a tip that Garcia was growing marijuana there. When they arrived, they noticed a foul smell coming from the house, but they didn’t find any drugs. They did find Garcia’s son, who was severely ill and was taken to the hospital. The cops had no idea that the house was filled with corpses until the boy died.

3 terrifying horror stories
# Story: 1 I was on my gap year, travelling around Europe with my best friend. We had just arrived in Prague and were looking for a place to stay. We found a hostel that looked perfect for us. It was our first night there and we were sharing a room with two other girls. We were all getting ready for bed and chatting. The girls told us that the hostel was supposedly haunted. They said that there had been reports of strange noises and sightings of ghosts. We all laughed and said that we didn't believe in ghosts. We said that we would be fine and went to bed. In the middle of the night, I was awoken by a noise. I sat up in bed and looked around the room. I couldn't see anything, but I could feel something watching me. I tried to go back to sleep, but the feeling was so strong that I couldn't. I got out of bed and turned on the light. I looked around the room, but there was nothing there. I woke up my friend and told her what was happening. She said that she had been having the same feeling. We decided to leave the room and go to reception. We didn't see anything on the way, but we could feel someone following us. We got to reception and told the night manager what was happening. He said that he would come and check our room. He came with us and went into the room. We all stood there in the doorway, but there was nothing there. The manager said that he didn't see anything and that we were probably just imagining things. We went back to our room and tried to sleep, but we couldn't. We could still feel someone watching us. Every time we closed our eyes, we saw a figure in the darkness. We were too scared to sleep, so we just sat there awake all night. In the morning, we packed our bags and left the hostel. We didn't say anything to the staff, we just wanted to get out of there. We never spoke about that night again, but we both know that we will never forget it.

2 Creepiest Horror Stories
# Story: 1 The most horrific night I ever experienced was the night that the bloody ghost of a young girl came haynting me and my brother. It was pitch black outside, and we were both in our room, trying to go to sleep. Suddenly, we heard a loud, blood-curdling scream. We both sat up in bed, terrified. The scream seemed to be coming from outside our window. We slowly got out of bed, and crept towards the window. Peeking out, we saw a figure in a white dress, covered in blood, floating towards our house. We both froze in fear as we watched the ghostly figure come closer and closer. Suddenly, it was right outside our window, staring in at us with its cold, dead eyes. My brother let out a whimper, and I put my hand over his mouth to keep him quiet. The ghostly figure just floated there, staring at us. Then, it slowly raised its hand and beckoned us to come closer. paralyzed with fear, we couldn't move. We just stood there, staring at the ghost. Finally, mustering up all my courage, I took a step towards the window. The ghostly figure floated back a few feet, still beckoning us to come closer. My brother grabbed my hand and tried to pull me back, but I shook him off. I was determined to find out what this ghost wanted. I inched closer and closer to the window, until I was right up against it. The ghostly figure was now just inches away from me, and I could see the bloodstained dress it was wearing. Suddenly, it reached out and grabbed my arm, and I let out a scream. My brother grabbed me and pulled me away from the window. We both ran into our closet and huddled together in the darkness, trembling with fear. We could hear the ghostly figure banging on the window, trying to get in. It scraped its nails down the glass, making a horrifying sound. We sat there in the closet, too terrified to move, until morning came. When we finally emerged from the closet, the ghost was gone. But we could still see the bloody handprints it had left on the window. We never found out what the ghost wanted, but that was the most horrific night of my life

2 Creepiest Haunted House Story
# Story: 1 The night was dark and stormy. The wind was howling and the rain was pouring. The trees were swaying and the branches were creaking. It was the perfect night for a ghost story. I was sitting by the fire with my two friends, Emma and Sarah. We were sharing scary stories and trying to scare each other. Emma told the story of the haunted house. She said that the house was built on an ancient burial ground and that the ghosts of the dead people haunted it. The pool in the house was also haunted by the spirits of drowned people. And the witches who lived in the house were the most evil and powerful creatures in the world. Sarah told the story of the human haunting witches. She said that these witches were the spirits of women who had been wronged in life. They haunt the living, seeking revenge. They are especially drawn to men who have done them wrong. I was about to tell my story when we heard a noise outside. It sounded like someone was walking around the house. We all got scared and ran upstairs to my room. We hid under the covers and tried to make ourselves as small as possible. The noise got louder and louder until it sounded like someone was right outside the door. We all held our breath, waiting for the door to burst open. But it didn't. After a few minutes, the noise stopped and we all breathed a sigh of relief. We decided to go downstairs and see what had made the noise. We carefully crept down the stairs, ready to run back upstairs at the first sign of danger. When we got to the bottom of the stairs, we saw the front door was open. We all froze in fear. Then, we heard footsteps coming towards the door.Someone was coming into the house! We didn't know what to do. We were about to run back upstairs when we heard a voice. It was a woman's voice, and she was singing. We all relaxed a little and decided to find out who the woman was. We followed the voice until we came to the living room. There, we saw a woman sitting in a chair by the fire. She was holding a book in her hands and singing softly to herself. We all stood in the doorway and stared at the woman. She looked up at us and smiled. Then she asked if we wanted to hear a story. We all nodded eagerly. The woman began to tell us a story about a group of witches who lived in a haunted house. These witches were the spirits of women who had been wronged in life. They haunt the living, seeking revenge. They are especially drawn to men who have done them wrong. As the woman told her story, we all felt ourselves getting more and more scared. But we couldn't look away. We were transfixed by her words. When she was finished, we all thanked her for the story. Then we ran upstairs and into my room. We all climbed into bed and tried to sleep. But we all had nightmares that night. The next morning, we woke up and realized it had all been a dream. But we all knew that the story was real. And we knew that we would never forget the woman who told it to us.

Top 3 Real Werewolf Cases
Werewolves are some of the most well-known monsters in the world. In fact, almost everyone knows what they are and what they look like. They’re hairy, greyish creatures that prowl around at night and feast on human flesh. And if you believe Hollywood, that’s pretty much all there is to know about werewolves. Of course, anyone with just a little bit of knowledge about real life knows that these beasts are not nearly as one-dimensional as their fictional counterparts would have us believe. While it’s true that most werewolf stories focus on people being bitten by one or contracting an illness called lycanthropy which causes them to transform into one whenever the moon is out. However, there have been several real-life cases which prove that things aren’t always so simple when it comes to these creatures of the night.

Haunted School Ghost Stories
Scary stories always seem to be set in creepy haunted houses, abandoned asylums, or any other spooky old building. But what about scary stories set in a school? In the cafeteria? In the locker room? What if the scary story is that you’ll get permanent failure marks on your report card unless you finish your assignments by tomorrow? Scary school ghost stories are often not what people expect.

Fictional Horror
Spooky season is quickly approaching, unlike the slow yet, somehow always on time strides of the typical slasher film villain. It has me thinking a little bit about that but not so much what you might suspect would be in anyone's thoughts on the subject. Allow me to elaborate.
