Fear: A Short Horror Story

[HazwoldTheElder]

So here's a short thing I wrote in 5 mins, it's got a bit of swearing in it, but otherwise should be fine,

Without further ado... here it is:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

F**ked. That’s what I am. Rock and a hard place. Pinned against a wall. A titanic monstrosity looms from the corner of my study, I don’t see a thing, no visual cues give it away, and it is silent too. But I feel it. I’m f**ked. I know I am. I will leave and face it or I will stay and it will force me to insanity. I don’t know which scares me more.

I go cold as I write this. I left my friends behind for this icy paranoia. To study such a thing has me horrified. To know that it is there. To know that it watches my moves, makes me feel f**ked in the head, and that’s what I am. F**ked. Dead to society. Eyes rushing, door closed. I begin to cry as I clench the cold metal barrel. This is what I deserve, I will be alone and be safe, safer dead than alive. It will fester on me, crawl and dance on my remains.

Click.

Life ticks away, as does fear.

Blackout.

So that's that! I hope you enjoyed it! :D

Interesting approach on horror, maybe you should describe a bit more about this thing that is with the protagonist, you have described it so little that it doesn't really strike as fearsome. Describe a bit more but not too much, give away some more cues about how it's pressuring the protagonist, how its sole presence fills him with fear more than you already have.
