Why in the hell did you resurrect this thread!? My curiousity will lead me here as long as its on the front page, please let us bury this accursed topic!Rylot said:

Although I'd go for more scary to be honest.
Since the thread seems to be winding down, ill present the shortest horror story ever told. Apparently, its the foundation of all horror, as all it does is present a norm and counters it preposterously. Everything we've seen on this thread follows this principle: A unreal twisted face of a person, someone hearing what shouldn't be there, even a cartoon becoming impossibly skewed.

Finding details about this missing episode is difficult, no one who was working on the show at the time likes to talk about it. From what has been pieced together, the lost episode was written entirely by Matt Groening. During production of the first season, Matt started to act strangely. He was very quiet, seemed nervous and morbid. Mentioning this to anyone who was present results in them getting very angry, and forbidding you to ever mention it to Matt. I first heard of it at an event where David Silverman was speaking. Someone in the crowd asked about the episode, and Silverman simply left the stage, ending the presentation hours early. The episode's production number was 7G06, the title was Dead Bart. The episode labeled 7G06, Moaning Lisa, was made later and given Dead Bart's production code to hide the latter's existence.
In addition to getting angry, asking anyone who was on the show about this will cause them to do everything they can to stop you from directly communicating with Matt Groening. At a fan event, I managed to follow him after he spoke to the crowd, and eventually had a chance to talk to him alone as he was leaving the building. He didn't seem upset that I had followed him, probably expected a typical encounter with an obsessive fan. When I mentioned the lost episode though, all color drained from his face and he started trembling. When I asked him if he could tell me any details, he sounded like he was on the verge of tears. He grabbed a piece of paper, wrote something on it, and handed it to me. He begged me never to mention the episode again. The piece of paper had a website address on it, I would rather not say what it was, for reasons you'll see in a second. I entered the address into my browser, and I came to a site that was completely black, except for a line of yellow text, a download link. I clicked on it, and a file started downloading. Once the file was downloaded, my computer went crazy, it was the worst virus I had ever seen. System restore didn't work, the entire computer had to be rebooted. Before doing this though, I copied the file onto a CD. I tried to open it on my now empty computer, and as I suspected, there was an episode of The Simpsons on it.
The episode started off like any other episode, but had very poor quality animation. If you've seen the original animation for Some Enchanted Evening, it was similar, but less stable. The first act was fairly normal, but the way the characters acted was a little off. Homer seemed angrier, Marge seemed depressed, Lisa seemed anxious, Bart seemed to have genuine anger and hatred for his parents.
The episode was about the Simpsons going on a plane trip, near the end of the first act, the plane was taking off. Bart was fooling around, as you'd expect. However, as the plane was about 50 feet off the ground, Bart broke a window on the plane and was sucked out.
At the beginning of the series, Matt had an idea that the animated style of the Simpsons' world represented life, and that death turned things more realistic. This was used in this episode. The picture of Bart's corpse was barely recognizable, they took full advantage of it not having to move, and made an almost photo-realistic drawing of his dead body.
Act one ended with the shot of Bart's corpse. When act two started, Homer, Marge, and Lisa were sitting at their table, crying. The crying went on and on, it got more pained, and sounded more realistic, better acting than you would think possible. The animation started to decay even more as they cried, and you could hear murmuring in the background. The characters could barely be made out, they were stretching and blurring, they looked like deformed shadows with random bright colors thrown on them. There were faces looking in the window, flashing in and out so you were never sure what they looked like. This crying went on for all of act two.
Act three opened with a title card saying one year had passed. Homer, Marge, and Lisa were skeletally thin, and still sitting at the table. There was no sign of Maggie or the pets.
They decided to visit Bart's grave. Springfield was completely deserted, and as they walked to the cemetery the houses became more and more decrepit. They all looked abandoned. When they got to the grave, Bart's body was just lying in front of his tombstone, looking just like it did at the end of act one.
The family started crying again. Eventually they stopped, and just stared at Bart's body. The camera zoomed in on Homer's face. According to summaries, Homer tells a joke at this part, but it isn't audible in the version I saw, you can't tell what Homer is saying.
The view zoomed out as the episode came to a close. The tombstones in the background had the names of every Simpsons guest star on them. Some that no one had heard of in 1989, some that haven't been on the show yet. All of them had death dates on them. For guests who died since, like Michael Jackson and George Harrison, the dates were when they would die. The credits were completely silent, and seemed handwritten. The final image was the Simpson family on their couch, like in the intros, but all drawn in hyper realistic, lifeless style of Bart's corpse.
A thought occurred to me after seeing the episode for the first time, you could try to use the tombstones to predict the death of living Simpsons guest stars, but there's something odd about most of the ones who haven't died yet. All of their deaths are listed as the same date.

Yes, I've come upon a story similar to this one, though it was a little bit longer, I think that it was posted in this thread, or was it the older scary thread. Anyway, here it is:1blackone said:
"The last man on Earth came home one night. He turned the lights off, got into bed, then remembered he had left the TV on.
He reached for a match, and a match was put into his hand. "
I have to say I prefer this one.
I've just read all the way through this thread and therefore think I should contribute something.
I'm writing a horror film at the moment, and am thinking of changing it into a story of some kind, but for now here's something I wrote 5 years ago which is nice and short:

He just stood there, looking at himself in the mirror. The room around his was black, fuzzy. Happens so much in these days. People are so proud of their bodies. They don't care about their surroundings, the world anymore.
Eventually, he noticed it. One, little blemish. A spider, sitting there on his forehead. Of course, he couldn't go out like that, could he? Couldn't be seen at the party, in that pretty little shirt, with some disgusting bug attached to him. People may think it's a spot.
He looked at the spider, then swung his hand up to his face, trying to swipe it off. It wouldn't move, as if plastered to his forhead. He tried again, and again the spider stubbornly held on. Then, he stood back, aghast.
His Reflection, his copy, his image, had started moving.The Mirrored Self jerked his head, mouthed some words, and then turned to look again. The spider quivered. The Reflection looked away, back into his own world, and then turned and went, swiftly moving towards a far doorway.
The spider stayed.
The man turned, looked back into the dark. The doorway here wasn't so welcoming, so light, as his Reflections. A thin sliver of light shone through under the door, an unwholesome eclipse. The man turned back to the mirror, the spider moved upwards, and was lost in the dark.
That is when I beckoned him closer. He knew there was no choice. He opened the door, and walked towards me.
The next day, the Reflection returned. Only when he looked into the mirror, it was I he saw, not himself.

I haven't seen this posted yet, so I'll present my offering. I can't verify if it really is authentic, as the poster claims, but I couldn't sleep after I watched this the first time.
I posted what I am about to post on another thread, so if you think this looks similar, you are right. Alright, well, to start off the story, my father is a sheriff for the county (K9), and we live in the Pittsburgh area. For training, he and the new dogs and officers would go play a fucked up game of "hide and go seek" in this place called Dixmont Insane Asylum (look it up). By now it was abandoned. Well, while my dad is looking with his dog on the fifth floor, all there is a big open room with nothing but windows and rocking chairs. While he was in this room, he had the feeling that someone was watching him, but this wasn't unusual, since he and everybody else had the same feeling while in the premises. Well, back on the subject, while he and his dog Yago are looking through the room, both scared shitless, he swears to this day that he heard a rocking chair go back and forth all by itself, since he and the dog were the only ones there at the time (he found out later and almost shit a brick). He then looked up at the adjacent window and saw that instead of the curtains that you would usually see, they were pulled back, as if someone is looking at them. He would also have some creepy experiences in the "Death Tunnel" and other areas of Dixmont, but the Chair one sticks out the most for me and it is one of the few he is willing to tell. Now, they tore down Dixmont and are trying to build something far worse...... a WALMART! Construction has stalled for some time though, don't know why, maybe bad funding or what have you, or maybe the ghosts of Dixmont, and if you look it up, you will find that there are a lot, just are really pissed off.

Anyways, Here's Hypno's Lullaby:
"Come little children, come with me
Safe and happy, you will be
Away from you're homes, now let us run
With Hypno, you'll have so much fun
Oh, little children, please don't cry
Hypno wouldn't hurt a fly
Be free, be free, be free, to play
Come down in my cave with me to stay
Oh little children, please don't squirm
Those ropes, I know, will hold you firm
Hypno tells you this is true
But sadly, Hypno lied to you
Oh little children, you musn't leave
Your families for you will grieve
Their minds will unravel at the seams
Allowing me to haunt their dreams
But surely, all of you must know
That it is time for you to go
Oh little children, you weren't clever
Now you shall stay with me forever."

Whew....thankfully I didn't scream, all it got was a whispered "fuck me". I feel a bit jumpy now....thanks.
Wait, WHY AM I ON THE SCARY THREAD AT 25 TO MIDNIGHT? WHY?!
So glad you guys decided to bring this thread back, fear never truly dies now does it?

I used to use the computer a lot. I would stay up late just surfing the web, playing games I?d beaten long ago. I guess it became an obsession. It got so bad that I would stay up till midnight just doing nothing. I tried to stop. Sometimes I could manage to go to sleep early, but lately I?ve never been in bed before eleven.
It?s weird, I never feel like this during the day. I can handle not being on the computer in the morning. I get lots of stuff done; cleaning up, studying, pretty much being a productive person.
But now things have gotten worse.
I started feeling really bad after going to sleep. It would hit me while I was on the computer that my eyes were really burning. Only when they started tearing up would my gaze be broken from the screen and realize I hadn?t been blinking. Weirder things started happening when I blinked too.
It started out harmless. Web pages would load real slowly. My mouse would freeze. Programs would start ending randomly. Nothing actually out of the ordinary. I would just refresh the page, reconnect the mouse, and press end now.
But it got worse.
I got on the computer one night to find it was completely shut down. I always suspend the computer when I log off, so this struck me as odd. When it started up again, it entered safe mode. After fiddling with the settings, I finally got it working again. For maybe two weeks things went on without a fuss.
I was browsing a blog, just slowly reading and scrolling down when a picture showed up. It was one of those awful pictures of a dead body, like, someone who had been in a car crash or explosion. It wasn?t a pop-up or anything. It was part of the blog. I was a bit concerned, the blog made no mention of this and had never used pictures before. I scrolled down so the picture was gone, and the blog continued like nothing strange was up.
I stopped going on the blog eventually. More and more gruesome pictures were showing up. I commented on one entry about it and was met with confusion. No one else was complaining. I wrote it off as some in joke to get rid of all the noobs.
Other sites I frequent are taking up this shock picture trick. It?s becoming a real pain. I?m starting to fear clicking on every link.
I closed internet explorer today to find my background had been changed to another horrible photo. I couldn?t help but recognize this one. It was one I saw in drivers? ed of a particularly gruesome drunk driving incident. After resetting my background, deleting the picture I had apparently saved to my hard drive, cleaning up and defragging my hard drive, I opened the recycling bin to get rid of it once and for all.
I was a bit stunned. My bin was full of all sorts of random things I knew I never saved. There were porn sites, illegal downloads, pictures, e-mails, and other files with extensions I wasn?t familiar with. I cleared them all and decided I get some outside help.
I started looking online for any similar incidents. With no results I called Geek Squad, my Dad, and even brought the computer in to major dealers for a check-up. One large bill later, no problems were detected. Most even commented on how well kept the computer was.
The pictures stopped appearing, but I almost wish they were still the problem. My computer now displays everything almost as it should be. But now, whenever a person is displayed, their eyes are gouged out. It looked like a crappy Paint job at first, but they became more and more real. I tried showing it to a friend, but the computer worked fine when he was around.
I finally let my friend have the computer. He always commented on what a great machine it was when he was over. I?m glad to be done with it. I had just bought a much more updated one and after starting it up, I was very happy to see everything working normally. I decided not transfer all the data from my old computer to the new one.
Happy to be done with it, I close the brand new model. It?s only nine thirty and I turn on the television, knowing that I can get a good night sleep after Futurama. I lay back and turn up the volume to hear the opening theme. I recognize the unique little blurb they have, like what they do with the Simpsons; this is the infamous ?dog? episode. I get ready to feel sad when my heart jumps.
Fry?s eyes are missing.
