For one reason or another, we love scaring ourselves. We watch horror movies, play horror games, and even explore abandoned buildings. Maybe it's because we're more curious than we are scared? 

There are countless horror stories out there on the Internet, but who has the time to read them all? So, we've gathered some horror stories that are only 2 sentences long and require you less than 30 seconds to finish. But be warned, 2 sentences might just be all it takes to make your hairs stand.

#This kidnapping nightmare from u/Nathan_is_writing:

But when I found her severed head in there, I learned that every other choice would have been correct as well.

#Did this user succeed or fail?

My husband has been very upset with me since my failed suicide attempt.

He's crying nonstop and he won't acknowledge me.

#You will not expect this twist from u/Tatsuya

"Please, take me instead!" I scream, grabbing at the two men who took my child.

"Sorry ma'am, children only" they said, as they continue loading up the last lifeboat on the ship.

#u/MintClicker shows that sometimes family is bad blood.

"For my last wish, I wish my dad to be alive again."

I stood atop his grave and smiled, hearing him screaming and clawing at his coffin lid as he did the two previous times I wished him back.

#When was the last time you forgot to charge?

"Battery at 1%"

I looked at Earth one last time before my suit ran out of power.

#Ever scared of childbirth?

My grandmother died giving birth to my mother, who died giving birth to me.

As I feel my consciousness slip away, I pray that my baby is a boy.
