Some micro ghost story examples



Here are a few 'micro ghost stories' (Twitter-length!) that I wrote a few years ago.

A tweet is limited to 140 characters (including the spaces between words): that usually works out to about 20-30 words. For your competition entries, you can use up to 50 words.




The barman's in a mood: ignores us regulars, chats only to these new guys; says things haven't been the same since the fire.



He couldn't help himself. Every day he drove down that street, the little girl always waiting to run out in front of him.



The perfect man, she thought. He walked her home. They kissed by moonlight. And then he showed her the place where he died.



"One careful owner," the salesman said. He never told me she gassed herself in this car. Now she bitches at my driving!




See what you can do with this very short format!  Good luck!!
