Some ghost stories are true some are just made up. I have one I can tell you which is true. My friend lives where Big Arm Billy used to live. He died in the bath when he drowned and if you laugh at him he'll drown you in the bath! At night when my friend is sleeping she can hear footsteps around her house when her parents are sleeping. Freaky!
A scary story is compelling when it creates tension through suspense, mystery, or dread. It plays on common fears and taps into the reader's emotions by building a sense of unease, fear of the unknown, and a feeling of vulnerability. Additionally, elements such as a dark setting, unexpected twists, and a sense of isolation can enhance the fear factor.
