40 Single-Picture Horror Stories That You Shouldn’t Read Before Sleep

The best time to watch a horror movie is right before you sleep. You really need to max out that scary essence to enjoy the movie, right? You might be scared witless, but that’s just the best way to enjoy horrors. But wait! There are ways to enjoy horror without having to spend 2-hour on screen!

Irish illustrator Brian Coldrick is the author of “Behind You: One-Shot horror stories.” It is a webcomic series by a man who loves scrolling through Creepy Pastas stories for breakfast. Brian’s specialty is moving illustrations that draw out the horror of a scene within a single panel.

“The series sprung out of my love of horror films and books, and particularly the reading of spooky internet stories,” said the author. “My favorite type of spooky internet story is the real-life account. These barely function as narratives, and they are basically scary scenarios.”

Brian shares his illustrations on Tapas, where readers can support him by reading there (for free!). If you love his works, definitely head there to show him some love!
