I don't read, watch or write horror, but who's to say there can't be a first time.? I have been playing Plants vs Zombies on my iPad, so maybe that's where this humble piece came from!

Jake had had a rough day – crashing off his
skateboard had left him scraped and sore and just a little embarrassed. His
parents out for the evening, he wearily dragged himself to bed with his black
cat, Frizz, for company.
A vague sense of unease tugged at his
senses as he slid under his covers, did he actually latch the back door? As his
mind struggled with sleep, the creatures swarmed and lurched up the staircase.
Slathering excitedly, the zombies jostled for space on the landing as their
leader opened Jake’s door and greedily pounced.
I think that this five sentence fiction is a great idea! I found your blog with WoW, and I have just posted my first five sentence piece on Horror(www.quiltofdragonflies.blogspot.com). I really enjoyed yours, very spine tingling. Anyway, just wanted to thank you for giving the prompts, I think it is great fun!

ReplyDeleteThis sentence is perfect for the ending. I had a vivid image of these creepy creatures scraping at each other to be the first one to get inside. Great work!!!
