You'll know him when you meet him. He'll sit opposite you on the train, or next to you on the bus, his expensive suit and cologne not *quite* hiding the whiff of decay and death. Whatever you do, don't meet his eyes, or offer him words. They'll be your last. #RandomHorrorBits

That tingling, crawling feeling on the skin of your arm, when there's nothing there? That's the ghost of one of those spiders that you've killed. Yes, just one of them. The rest? Well, they're collectively biding their time, waiting for revenge... #RandomHorrorBits

Damn. I've sliced myself opening the tin. I draw breath to swear... Everything has gone perfectly, eerily still. I shove my finger in my mouth, but too late, it's caught the coppery tang. The skittering and chattering noise means that it knows I'm here... #RandomHorrorBits

The pure white rose is just beautiful, so I lean forward to catch its scent. Blood oozes from the centre of it as I get closer and quickly turns dark. I smell death and pull back sharply. Yellow, malevolent eyes in the cordovan depths blink their hatred of me. #RandomHorrorBits

A bonus horror haiku, inspired by me mistyping yesterday's @haikuprompt as "spilt" not "split".😳 You can't cry over spilt milk when your eyes have been eaten for breakfast... #RandomHorrorBits

A spider's built a web like a cradle in the corner. I go to clear it away, but something moves and I leap back. Now it's on the floor and... and it's white, HUGE, and three of its legs are fingers. Cold, white, shrivelled human fingers. Oh God, it's seen me... #RandomHorrorBits

The tin had an air leak and my soup has gone black and smells... vile. I tip it into the sink, and there is a wet plop as something solid falls out. I gag, trying to spear it with a fork to put it in the bin. It blinks once and leaps for my face, teeth bared. #RandomHorrorBits

Ugh. I've another midnight headache. I wake up, pop a painkiller from the blister pack and stick it on my tongue. As I reach for the glass of water, what I thought was a pill starts to crawl towards the back of my throat. No! I can't breathe, I can't br... #RandomHorrorBits

The online store said "specialises in the macabre", so of course I bought a "real spider silk" facemask. I didn't realise nests were woven between the layers, and my breath hatched them. Now my mouth and nose are full of swarming spider babies, I can't brea... #RandomHorrorBits

"Mommy," she says, blinking at me, "I haven't put mascara on today, but my eyelashes are really long and black." I lean in to look. One lash extends and punctures my iris. Now I am beautiful too, and the spider-queen wants me to find a new home for her babies. #RandomHorrorBits

I'm alone in the house tonight. Someone's behi... no, just a dress I caught in the corner of my eye. Looked like a shadow or someone dressed in black. I laugh at my own stupidity. In the next room, someone whistles 3 notes softly, repeatedly, insistently. #RandomHorrorBits

She runs into the hotel room, all excited. Spots the pillow chocolate, unwraps it and pops it in to taste. Half a second later, she turns, eyes wide; it's unfurled 8 legs, sunk fangs in the roof of her mouth. She tries to scream, but it punctures her throat... #RandomHorrorBits

It looked like a piece of rice, wedged between stacked cups in the cupboard. At least, until I pulled it out, saw teeth on one end, and it burrowed under my fingernail. I can see it working its way up my arm towar... oh Jesus, get a me a carving knife quick... #RandomHorrorBits

Family game time: word association. Points for a match. The card says "ROTTEN". I stand next to you in turn, bending to hear whispered answers, writing it for you on your paper. You have "fruit", "Johnny", and "core". I smile. I win. I've written "You lot." #RandomHorrorBits

"You ok?" she says, "It's just... your eye is really bloodshot? There's a bright red line through the middle." I look in the mirror. She's right. As I watch, my eye starts pulsating, the red line splits apart, and the first of the baby tarantulas crawls out. #RandomHorrorBits

Something's moving under the duvet. I pull it back, shoe ready. Thousands of tiny spiders stop dead still, then rapidly form themselves into the shape of a human torso. It extends an arm, hand twitching, and grasps my throat. My vision's going black... Oh God. #RandomHorrorBits

Late night, a country road. I stop for a few minutes, and open the door to let in the cool night air. A pinprick on my leg. There's... a claw sticking out of it. As the arm it's attached to comes from under the chassis, poison paralyses me. All I see is teeth. #RandomHorrorBits

He was in dark clothes and a balaclava when he broke in. I was in the kitchen, the only thing I had to hand was a baguette. As I waved it ineffectually at him, he laughed, unhooked his jaw, and flicked his 4 foot tongue before swallowing it, and my arm, whole. #RandomHorrorBits

Something's tickling my neck, I glance in the mirror, reaching up to scratch... Jesus Christ, what the Hell is that? ...and how many legs has it got? I can't pull it off, I... Oh shit, it's moving towards... it's in my ear... it's in my... Oh my fucking God... #RandomHorrorBits
