Spooky Dialogue Writing Prompts

I came across a post of spooky dialogue prompts on tumblr and thought I'd share. It might be handy for those who have signed up for spook_me, or if you are just looking to write a scary story for Halloween. Depending on how you read them, the prompts can be as funny as they are creepy!

1. "Look, I dressed up as you."


2. "Oh my god, I think the crystal ball is working."


3. "That wasn't there before."


4. "I dare you to go down there."


5. "If you can't wake up from the nightmare, maybe you're not asleep."


6. "Y-your eyes, what's happening to your eyes?"


7. "That costume really is convincing."


8. "I don't believe in ghosts."


9. "Hey, this isn't funny."


10. "Do you think keeping your eyes shut will keep you safe?"


11. "You've heard the stories about what happened in that house, right?"


12. "There's no one here."


13. "He was right behind me."


14. "I swear, that door was locked a minute ago."


15. "I think we're lost."
