    Question about starting a fire with alcohol
    I'm directing a screenplay where a character starts a fire using strips of fabric dipped in alcohol (plus matches). Is this possible? Is it at all realistic? Can anyone suggest alternatives that might be a bit more realistic? Anything goes, really. Just looking for some ideas.

  • The creepy man who followed and stared at kids in a bowling alley by pumpkin_dealer
    r/Letsnotmeet The creepy man who followed and stared at kids in a bowling alley
    This story includes me (14), my brother (16), my sister (8), my brother (6), and our dad.
    We were going to a bowling alley to bowl. Our dad parked the car and my siblings got out. I looked outside from the window on my right and noticed a man. He looked to be about 30, he had messy brown hair, he was chubby and he was standing next to a parked car looking at us. I just assumed that he was waiting for us to leave so he can drive away but when I got out of our car and started walking towards the bowling alley with my family the man followed us. This was when I realized that this dude was weird. When we were entering the building our dad opened the door and I looked at the guy. He was staring at my younger sister and brother and smiling. Inside the building we walked to the ticket booth and my dad started buying the tickets. I looked back and the guy stopped and started fiddling with an 8 ball pool table. He was obviously trying to act like he wasn't following us.
    After my dad had bought the tickets we started walking towards our bowling spot. Then my dad noticed that the guy was still following us and stopped and looked at the guy. The guy realized that he'd been caught and he walked past us. We waited for about 20 seconds and then we continued walking.
    When we got to our bowling spot I noticed that the creepy guy was staring at a boy and a girl (Both of them were about 13-14) who were bowling together. The creepy guy continued staring for a few minutes and then he left.
    I hope he gets the care he needs and I hope we never meet.

  • Do you believe there’s a line where adding to much fantasy into your story will ruin the horror?
    By fallenprincealastor Do you believe there's a line where adding too much fantasy into your story will ruin the horror?
    Serious question, i have a lot of ideas regarding monsters for my stories, I'm currently working on a story where a young college student steals a treasure from a powerful dead witch, instead of killing him she threatens to send 13 horrors to reclaim her treasures from him if he doesn't comply, while at first he doesn't believe her, she sends the first which is shown to be a lightning elemental and what truly terrifies him is that with each monster encounter his entire town gets frozen in suspended animation and he can't leave town, meaning he must fight each horror on his own.
    After I began writing this story I started to wonder if maybe adding so much fantasy in the story would ruin it's power of fear and being scary. Do you guys think there's a line in how much fantasy (low or high) one should add to a r/nosleep story before it stops being scary?

  • People of reddit with security cameras what is the creepiest thing youve caught on camera by pepperoniplayboy21
    r/Askreddit My stepdad woke up one morning and found a bucket of fried chicken in our driveway. For some reason he didn’t think it was odd at all. I did and checked our camera recordings. Ends up being this lady walked up to my car at like 3am with a bucket. She was obviously homeless and probably on drugs. When the camera light turned on she yelled I brought you some chicken and left the bucket on the ground by my car. To this day I wonder what was up with the chicken lady.
