Short HORROR stories

Stuck

My heart was pounding and sweat was crawling down my face. I was sure I had seen the doorknob turn. I thought if someone was there, what would I do? I was alone. I slowly walked down the stairs, when I heard a noise coming from the door. I was terrified.

I ran up stairs and I felt like a presence was there. I felt like I could see someone's shadow. How was this possible? I couldn't convince myself, though I knew there was no one there. I thought maybe I just needed a break. I headed toward the door but the door would not open. I was trapped.

I wasn't trapped in the house, I was trapped in my fears. It was a lock that I had no key to. What would I do? I ran to call my mom, but I got a text from an anonymous person which said, no one can help you. It is too late. I shrieked in pain like someone or something was grabbing me. My head spinning around and my vision got blurry. I felt like I was drowning in a ocean of fears, in which I had already lost.
