Scary Quotes


Some people are very easily scared and some love to be scared. After all, it’s a hormone rush in our body. We have movies, videos, and games for that but have you heard of scare quotes? Yes, scary quotes and sayings which can actually scare you. We have heard many times that words have some immense power in them, today . . . you will see that power.

*Bullet*"Even the Devil was once an Angel."

*Bullet*"When there's no more room in Hell, the dead will walk the earth."

*Bullet*My pain is constant and sharp and I do not hope for a better world for anyone. In fact, I want my pain to be inflicted on others. I want no one to escape.

― Chuck Palahniuk

*Bullet*The essence of true horror is a clown at midnight.

*Bullet*Everybody is a book of blood; wherever we’re opened, we’re red.
― Clive Barker

*Bullet*The Devil pulls the strings which make us dance; We find delight in the most loathsome things; Some furtherance of Hell each new day brings, and yet we feel no horror in that rank advance. ― Charles Baudelaire

*Bullet*When I was a child, I was afraid of ghosts. When I grew up, I realized people are more scary.

*Bullet*I fear not the dark itself, but what may lurk within it.

*Bullet*Death is not scary. It’s where we’ll end up that is.

― Stephen King

*Bullet*I do not love men: I love what devours them.

― André Gide

*Bullet*And in the way of children, he did feel something and knew they were no longer alone. A great hush had fallen over the woods; but it was a malefic hush. Shadows, urged by the wind, twisted languorously around them.
– Stephen King

Ask & Answer

DEAD LETTERS

BIG BAD WOLF is Howling Author Icon says:
There's plenty of scary things. Some of my latest trips into the world of fetish stories prove it.... some stuff I understand - don't like them, but I get them. Some of them even have a twisted sense of humor - lessens the darkness a bit. Others make me go, "What kind of dark and twisted hole did you crawl out of to write this type of cruelty?" Mind you, I've recently written some rather dark/twisted things, but not on the level of cruelty some folks can write.

QUESTION FOR NEXT MONTH: Do you scare easily?
