31 Horror Prompts for Halloween! 1-4

Oh, did we think I forgot? I didn’t xD I just haven’t gotten around to writing a blog for the past few days! I’ve been super busy doing Kinktober commissions. Anyway, I wanted to go ahead and throw you guys out your horror writing prompts. If you enjoy any of them, please write them up and link back to my blog ❤ I’d love to read them!

So, there we go! There are four prompts for you to work with, and I would love to see what you can come up with in relation to them! 

Until I see your responses! I can’t wait!

31 Writing Prompts for October: Day 8-10

Soooo! To say that I fell a little behind on this is an understatement. However, I’m still going to get all of the prompts up. I’ll be posting some back to back blogs here and getting them up in batches! I really do apologize – between the baby and getting prepped for NaNo (which took most of my free time) I’ve been really busy. However, I’m planning on doing daily update blogs come November, and things are finally starting to get into place with the kiddo (See: He can hold his head up now).

So, anyway. Let’s get these writing prompts going!

Day 8:

At 3 am you wake up out of a very sound sleep. You hear the ice cream truck outside of your house. And you realize, the sound that woke you up, was the sound of your 4 year old daughter, letting the screen down slam, as she left the house.

Day 9:

The man leans into you. There is a dark red almost black color to the whites of his eyes. He is so close his nose is almost touching your nose. You can feel his breath when he says, “We all have it in here. We are all infected.

Day 10:

31 Horror Prompts for October – Day 2&3

Sorry about the lack of prompts yesterday, guys! I actually had the blog written and didn’t post it. It looks like WordPress has updated so that I have to push the button twice. How weird. Anyway, I will be giving you two prompts today! Two pictures. Do one, do both! But here are your day 2 and 3 writing prompts for the 31 Days of Horror Prompts for October!

Day 2:

Day 3:

So, there they are. If you end up doing the prompts, let me know. I’d love to see your responses! I’m much like a few others here, I’m kind of hoping that one of these prompts is going to inspire something for NaNoWriMo. I’m still not completely sure as to what my idea is going to be, so we’re gonna see.
