Top 23 Scary Stories to Tell Your Kids
Bedtime stories are a beautiful part of childhood. As kids, we have lived all those amazing tales of courage, adventure, thrills and fun, but the ones which remain etched in our memories are the scary tales for children our parents and grandparents told us.
Now as parents, you would love to narrate tales to your own kids, but a little bit of caution is required. Here is a handy guide to help you weave some fascinating night stories for kids and make them memorable.
Horror Stories for Kids
Caution: These short horror stories are not meant for very young children who could be frightened more than they should be.
1. The Hook
Age Recommendation: 8 years and above
It was dark when a teenager and his girlfriend stopped at a lonely and secluded Lover’s lane to spend some time alone. The car radio was broadcasting warnings about an escaped criminal called “The Hook”, nicknamed so because of the hook that replaced his right hand. Scared, both the boy and the girl leave the place in a rush when the car begins shaking. When both reach a nearby coffee shop, the girl notices a blood-covered hook hanging from the back seat window.
How to Tell: - Create enough drama around the fact that the couple was saved because they rushed out quickly and the fact that the hook was left hanging, suggesting that “The Hook” was nearby.
2. The Candy Man
Age Recommendation: 8 years and above
Daniel was a poor man who worked at the local candy factory. Since he was a talented artist too, the factory owner hired him to paint his daughter Rose’s portrait. Daniel and Rose fell in love with each other which invited the wrath of Rose’s father and the town dwellers, and they tortured and beat him till he died. Daniel is long dead, but his tortured soul did not leave the world. Legend says that even today if you call out the name “Candyman” five times, Daniel’s ghost will come to haunt you.
How to Tell: Build interest around why the kids should not call out the word “Candyman” five times and its repercussions. Keep it simple yet interesting for the kids to connect.
3. The 13th Floor
Age Recommendation: 8 years and above
As the legend goes, there is a haunted home in the city of Pennsylvania. Many years ago, invitations were sent out to people asking them to attend a Halloween party here, and Jack and Mary were amongst the invitees. The home consisted of a maze of identical passages and staircases, all leading to the 13th floor. Most people never made it to the 13th floor, scared by people dressed up as ghosts and ghouls. But Jack and Mary made it to the 13th floor despite all this. But we do not know what they found out on this floor as they were never seen after that fateful party.
How to Tell: Make use of voice modulations to convey the fears and scariness of the guests and dramatise the ending with a low voice.
4. The Clown
Age Recommendation: 8 years and above
This story is about a family that moved into a huge house with a large number of rooms. A few days later, the two little boys of the couple began complaining about a clown coming into their room at night, but the father did not take it seriously. When a young girl came to babysit the kids while the parents were out, she went to the basement to watch TV after the kids went to sleep. She became uncomfortable because of the clown statue near the door and called the parents to ask if she could watch TV in the hall. The father told her to leave the house immediately and wait with the neighbours. The girl later came to know that the family never had a clown statue in their home.
How to Tell: Use a low voice to build up the eeriness when the babysitter watches the clown statue standing near the door and how the girl leaves the house with the two kids and play on the urgency.
5. The Flying Dutchman
Age Recommendation: 10 years and above
Way back in 1961, a ship from Holland, called the Flying Dutchman was on its voyage and was near the Cape of Good Hope when the captain saw that they were in the path of a massive storm. With the help of the crew, the ship managed to steer clear of the storm but not for long, and it began to sink. The captain screamed at the storm that he would keep going around the cape in circles until time immortal if that’s what it took. If you are caught in a storm near the Cape of Good Hope, you can still see the Flying Dutchman and his crew sailing into the storm.
How to Tell: Dramatize the storm, powerful winds and rains to give the story a real feel. Talk like the captain did and you will have your kids hooked on the story.
6. The Stare
Age Recommendation: 10 years and above
A young girl was travelling by train one late night. There were two old men sitting across her, and an old woman sitting between them, kept staring at her in a weird way. The train stopped at a station and a man, wearing a trench coat, stepped in and sat next to her. The young girl still felt the old woman staring at her continuously while the two old men were least bothered. When the train halted at the next stop, the man in the trench coat grabbed the girl and pushed her on to the station. When the girl began to scream, the man said, ”I am sorry, but I just saved your life, as the old woman was dead and the old men were propping her up”.
How to Tell: Paint a villainous image of the man in the trench coat and build up suspense until the end when he pulls the girl to safety.
7. Hide and Seek
Age Recommendation: 8 years and above
This story is about two brothers who were playing hide and seek in their home while their parents were visiting their friends nearby. As the older boy turned towards the wall and began counting, he heard his brother scampering around searching for a place to hide. He searched everywhere but couldn’t locate his brother, when he heard a scraping sound from the cupboard. He called out to his younger brother but there was no response; only an eerie silence. He opened the cupboard slowly and bent down to peer closer, when a white, icy cold hand pulled him back. He then heard his younger brother calling out to him from behind, and frightened, the boy tried to break free from the grip of the icy cold hand. Both the brothers then rushed out of the room and out of the house, screaming. What if the hand had pulled the boy inside the cupboard?
How to Tell: Dramatise the scraping sound and the silence that follows. Ask the question “What if…..” in a monotone and see the reaction.
8. The Vanishing Hitchhiker
Age Recommendation: 6 years and above
As my Uncle Sam was driving down the highway one late rainy night, he saw a young girl wearing a pretty dress, asking to be dropped off to a nearby place. Uncle Sam was kind and dropped her off to her home, chatting and talking throughout the ride. The next day, he realised that the girl had forgotten her sweater in the car and went to her home to return it. An old lady greeted him at the door and when Uncle Sam narrated how he had met the young girl, the old woman said” I don’t think that’s possible since my daughter died many years ago while she was returning home after a party”.
How to Tell: Emphasize on the old woman’s revelation about her daughter being dead and bring the story to a dramatic end.
9. The Big Toe
Age Recommendation: 10 years and above
A woman lived in a large house all alone. One day while she was working in her garden, she found a large hairy toe under a flower bed, brought it inside and kept it in a glass jar. That night, when she was getting ready to sleep, she heard the wind howling through the windows and a hoarse voice asking “Where is my toe?” The entire house was shaking when she heard the voice asking the same question. To finish, ask the question once again in a low, eerie voice and suddenly jump up and point at your audience and say “You’ve got it!”
How to Tell: Keep your voice low throughout the story and give it a dramatic finish as you say “You’ve got it!” in a loud voice.
10. The Old Television
A couple lived with their only son in a house on the outskirts of the city of Spain. The boy’s room had an old television which he would ask to be covered with a cloth every night as he went to sleep. One day, the father asked the boy why he wanted the TV covered at night. The boy said ”Because that’s where they come from”. The parents ignored the comment, thinking it was his imagination. One night, the parents had to go out, so they hired a baby sitter to stay with their son. When they returned late night, they found the babysitter sitting outside the home, mumbling, “They took him away.” Confused the parents rushed into the boy’s room and found that the television cover was off and the boy was gone.
How to Tell: Pause briefly when you are near the end and use a hushed tone to say “The boy was gone”.
Caution: Use words like 'torture' and 'killing' with care, while sparing grisly details of death if you find the audience getting spooked.

But the girl insisted, and the owner reluctantly sold it to her. When she reached her home, she got into the elevator, and the doors closed behind her.

Suddenly the doll moved, turned her jet black eyes towards her and opened her mouth to say, “Push the floor button, you silly fool.”

The young woman caught up with him and asked him to walk with her to her home. As they came near the cemetery, the girl told him that she was terribly afraid of the dead. The man looked at her, smiled and said: ”Why should you be afraid of us?”
How to Tell: Make sure you create enough eerie feelings about the cemetery and the night. The last question should be asked with a maniacal smile.
5. Who’s the Boss?
A young girl went to a summer camp during her school vacation. This girl was extremely bossy and hence was an unpopular figure amongst the other students. Tired of her selfish nature, the students complained to the organisers and asked them to move the girl to another cabin. No one knew that the cabin that girl was moved into, was a haunted one. Just before going to sleep, the girl scribbled on the wall “I am the Boss”. As the lights were switched off, the girl felt a pair of hands creep up to her neck and slowly strangled her.
The next day when the organisers came looking for her, they found her dead. Just above the earlier scribbling were written the ominous words “No, I am the Boss”.
How to Tell: Keep your audience interested in what happens next by narrating the girl’s night in the cabin in a slow and deliberate manner.

Important Tips for Narrating Short Scary Stories for Children
It may be one thing to source haunted house stories for children and choose one to narrate, but narrating them to children is a different ball game altogether. The story-telling should be conversational and should not be a one-way monologue that will bore the kids. Here are a few tips you could implement when you have sacksful of scary stories to tell in the dark.
It is important to read and rehearse the story before you present it to the kids, especially if this is your first time.
You should use a conversational tone instead of simply reciting it. Emphasise high points where necessary and create drama with your voice.
Always sit in front of your audience, never sit beside them as the impact is reduced.
If you are around a campfire, make sure it is low and flickering, as a blazing fire will be a distraction.
Gauge the average age of your listeners and select an appropriate story accordingly.
Keep a low volume to keep the audience focused and attentive to your narration.
You may also dress up and enact a story with your spouse. Funny scary stories are the best to enact for kids who are not accustomed to scary stories.
Things to Remember While Telling Scary Stories to Kids
Each kid responds differently to scary stories. Understand the audience and increase or decrease the eeriness in your story.
Make sure the kids visit the loo before the story begins. Also, remember to ask them if they'd want you to accompany them to the restroom after the story.
At times, choose stories that the kids can differentiate from reality.
Understand what really spooks your kids out, and either avoid the story or modify it to ease the stress.
Always try to keep their innocence intact and don't scare them completely.
Kids love to hear scary stories at bedtime and while they are out camping in the wild. If you select the right stories for the right audience and keep them engaged (and scared), you are assured of an audience that will be clamouring for more.

Baby Dropping - When Does It Happen and What Should You Do?
Pregnancy is a time when your body goes through a whole lot of changes. It can be confusing and make you anxious, especially if it is your first pregnancy. As the end of your pregnancy approaches, your body starts to prepare itself for labour and delivery. Your baby dropping is one of the signs that the time is fast approaching. There are some signs to watch out for and knowing all about these will help you prepare yourself better.
Why Do Babies Drop?
When somebody mentions baby dropping, it might scare you. But it actually means 'Lightening'. Lightening is the term used for baby dropping which means your labour time is approaching. As the labour approaches, baby drops into the pelvis in an effort to get into the best position within the uterus to pass easily through the birth canal. This helps stretch your pelvic muscles ahead of labour.
When are Babies More Likely To Drop?
Baby dropping or lightening during pregnancy can happen anytime between 34 to 36 weeks of pregnancy in first-time pregnancies. In later pregnancies, the baby might not drop until labour has started. If you are wondering whether it can be predicted in which week does the baby drop, then you must know that it is not an accurate science. There are no strict timelines as to when this might occur, and in some instances, it might be prior to four weeks before the labour starts.
Signs of Lightening Pregnancy
Each case of pregnancy is unique and the time of lightening, and the signs that may accompany it will vary. However, if you are pondering about what does it feel like when the baby drops, the following are some common indications:
Frequent Urination:
The pressure is likely to move to your lower abdomen from the upper part, especially on the bladder. As the baby's head lowers on your bladder, it results in more pressure on it. So, your trips to the bathroom will be more.
Easier to Breathe:
As the baby drops into your pelvis, the pressure on your diaphragm lessens. The shortness of breath that you had been experiencing earlier will no more be an issue once the baby drops. Breathing process will soon be back to normal again.
Improved Appetite:
When the baby drops, the pressure on the stomach is eased significantly. This means that you will be able to eat more than you did at the beginning of the third trimester.
Baby Bump Changes:
After your baby’s head moves into the pelvis, it is likely to seem as if your stomach is hanging lower. When you sit down, you will be able to feel the baby more.
Lower Back Pain:
When baby starts to get heavier and slides down your abdomen finally settling in the pelvis, you will experience lower back pain more frequently.
Increase in Vaginal Discharge:
The pressure caused by baby dropping in your pelvis will lead to thinning of your cervix and cause dilation. This will lead to the mucus plug being gradually expelled causing heavier discharge.
Though these signs of baby dropping during pregnancy tell you that your delivery is approaching it is not a clear-cut indicator of exactly when labour will start.
If you are only 35 weeks pregnant and are experiencing symptoms of baby dropping, you need not worry about it. However, do consult with your doctor if you feel that something is wrong.
What Should You Do?
If you are nearing your due date and baby still hasn’t dropped, there are a few things that you could try to help. But these should be done only after at least 36 weeks of pregnancy and after you have consulted your doctor.
Increase Physical Activity:
Don't do anything too strenuous, but increasing the number of walks each day can make the baby move and pressurise the cervix. But watch out for Braxton-Hicks or false labour contractions which is sometimes triggered by walking.
Mind How You Sit:
Do not sit cross-legged as it can push the baby back up. Instead, you can sit with your knees spread open and lean forward to coax the baby to move down.
Try a Birthing Ball: Using a birthing ball can give you some relief from back pain while assisting the baby to move into the pelvis. It can also increase blood flow to the baby.
Go for an Ankle Massage: There are specific pressure points in the body that are thought to instigate labour. Besides ankle massage, back massages can also help in inducing labour.
Do Some Squats:
Doing squats can help widen your pelvic opening and ease the baby downwards while strengthening your legs and hips for delivery. However, do not start off with squats if you have not been exercising during the pregnancy.
Try Swimming:
Use the backstroke to swim with your belly up or simply float on your back. If you have pelvic pain, don't do breaststrokes.
Avoid Sitting for Long:
If your job involves sitting on a chair for a long period of time, be sure to take frequent breaks during work hours. You could just stretch your legs a bit every hour or so to encourage the baby to drop.
If your baby has dropped, then be sure to visit your doctor for a check-up. This will help your doctor to adjust the due date accordingly and give you a tentative estimation of when labour is likely to start. After baby drops, it is just a matter of days before you will get to hold your little one.

The One Who Gave Me the Privilege of Owning the Word - Motherhood!
I believe every woman has in her a maternal instinct right from the time she is born, but it completes itself when she has a child of her own. I was basically one of those tomboys who had no clue how to handle a child, let alone a baby.
But God had his own plan in training me. I was diagnosed with typhoid when I tested positive for pregnancy. I was hospitalized under special care to keep the baby safe. To add to the chaos, my sugar levels spiked up. The first 3 months went in a diet for typhoid, and on the other hand, I was categorized as type-2 diabetic. Too much stress and anxiety with nauseous days, I ended up bleeding one fine afternoon. Good doctors save your day! She consoled me and gave me the much-needed pep talk, and put me on bed rest with injections every 15 days till the 6th month. I guess I was being prepared much more strongly to take care of my child through thick and thin.
The second trimester was getting better; however, my sugar levels kept increasing. But my mind was strong. I started doing yoga, I was very strict with my diet, if tempted, I made sure I didn't exceed the max calorie level for a day. I drank loads of water. I walked and walked, even though afternoons were dead tired. The baby inside me gave high fives and kept me moving ahead.
In the third trimester, my doctor was sure that it will be a high risk pregnancy and delivery, and advised me to be ready for both natural and Cesarean birth. The weight gain in spite of insulin was under control for both of us. Since his response rate was low, we had to go for an elective Cesarean. There he was in my hand - all safe and sound with no impact of diabetes on him. Yes it was a boy, just as I wished! Every sacrifice I made during my pregnancy, the efforts in keeping myself healthy reflected well in that little one's body. Oh, what a joy it was to see him wiggle and cry and smile - it kept me engaged the whole day.
Post pregnancy is much more challenging, but it is worth it all. Every milestone, every developmental achievement, it all starts with a mother’s mindset to keep herself strong for that little one. I've heard and been counselled on how a mother's stress can impact the kid. Worry and anxiety, stress and hormonal changes, mood swings are all inevitable. But when you make up your mind to strive against them, I guess that sends the right impulse to the baby.
The new timeless days and nights with him. Trying to teach and be taught. Reaching out to the doctor, Googling and searching blogs for every uneasiness the baby has. The big job of breastfeeding the clinging child at every request. Forget to comb, eat on time, watch your favorite shows, cook and take care of other household work, multi-tasking is at its peak.
Shooing away free advice, taking the right call and making your first kid, the husband understanding that we are in this together, I guess we are born natural in taking up this role. Being strong in all situations, be it inside the womb or much more when you have the child in hand and so many people come suggesting things, taking your stand on how you want to bring up your child, you become the role model your child needs. What the future holds, I don't know. But this I know - the kid is going to keep me on the run to make me complete the full round of the gift he has given - motherhood!
