Scary Stories

To me, I think that in order for me to consider a story to be a scary story, a murder must happen, and the author must be good at adding suspense and must have a good foundation of the language he or she is writing the story in because he or she should be good at describing scenes, feeling of characters, actions that characters are taking, and all other things that will happen in the story. In another kind of horror story, there should be ghosts or monsters that kill. The description of how, where, who, why, and what should be really detailed, so it can scare people more. I've read many Chinese novels that are scary, although a lot of them are really fake, and unrealistic, but so what? The author makes me feel like I'm in the book, and feels like the ghosts are around me, trying to get me too. Some movies that I've watched that I think are scary, are "My Soul To Take", "Orphan", and "Alone". "My Soul To Take" is a movie that is recently played in the theatre. Although the plot is kind of lame, but the actors and actresses acting skills are really good, that it made me really scared too. "Orphan" is scary to me too because of the acting skills and the way the director filmed it. The screams were terrifying. I haven't watched all of "Alone", because it's too scary for me.
