🎃 Horror / Thriller Plots for Halloween 🦇
( only because i haven’t seen many on my dashboard and i’m kinda hungry for them. )
( feel free to reblog this for your own roleplay use. )
muse a moved into a house ( could be alone or with their family ) next to muse b, muse a doesn’t know about the house’s history. the house hasn’t had anyone stay for more than two weeks due to the sudden supernatural forces that inhabit it. muse b tells muse a about the house, and the both of them go on a historical, research journey trying to figure out what happened on the land and home.
muse a and muse b are at a carnival, they decide to go get their palms read. the palm reader refuses to read either muse a or muse b palm. the palm reader mentions that muse a or b have something ‘ demonic attached ’ to their presence. ( can play around and say maybe muse a or muse b parent sold their soul to the devil once they turn 21, and now the demonic spirit is here to claim their soul and live through their body ) .
a massacre at a small town’s carnival by someone dressed as a clown leaves only two survivors, muse a and muse b ( both were children, you can decide how they survived ) . the two of them keep in touch over the years and provide comfort to one another ( having nightmares, they call each other in the middle of the night kinda stuff ) . only one night, 18 years after the massacre a person’s body is found in the lake whose face is painted with clown makeup only to trigger muse a to believe that the carnival killer is back to kill the remaining two survivors, muse b is reluctant. you can write it as the two of them receiving threats from the killer, and one of them being in denial. etc. or just make your own.
based off this new movie ( I can’t remember the name of it ) ,there’s a new app and it’s supposed to predict the day you die. muse a downloads it after muse b won’t shut up about it., the apps tells them they will die in three days ( or how many days you want ) , muse a thinks its a joke and deletes the app. the next morning the app is installed on their phone again. turning on the television, muse a’s see’s one of their friends has died on the same day the app told this friend they would die. muse a thinks it’s a sad coincidence, and deletes the app once more thinking she dreamt to delete it but didn’t. muse a has coffee with muse b, and as they are about to venmo muse b money for the coffee, muse a notices the app is back on their phone. muse a argues with muse b thinking muse b put the app on their phone again, since it was muse b’s idea to download it and try the app in the first place. now take this and make it your own.
muse a and muse b are dating and they decide to go to muse a’s family cabin for the weekend - muse a’s family is planning on getting rid of it and the two decided it could be a nice romantic getaway while decluttering and tidying the place up for sale. the first night there muse b has nightmares, by night three muse a has unknown scratches along their back. muse b is confused and they go to the hospital, doctors say it looks like animal scratches not human. idk where i’m going with this but it can be something like the land belonged to a cult before muse a’s family bought it, or something idk.
the ring ( newer version ) inspired - there’s a killer video tape and anyone who watches it will die in seven days, muse a watches it as part of a school project, muse b is the girlfriend who stays behind while muse a is in college. after not hearing from muse a, muse b goes onto campus only to find out muse a has not been to class in days. eventually following the professor in charge, muse b learns briefly about the project, and the tape and watches it not seeing the big deal about it. muse b finds out and goes into a panic, revealing that the only way someone won’t die in seven days is if they pass the video along to someone else and since muse b saw muse a’s video they are now spared but muse a needs to find someone to watch the video or else their death will come in seven days.
the purge kinda ?? muse a and muse b are two newlyweds who moved into a new town not too long ago. the purge was not legal all over united states, there . were some states that opted out of the purge. the newlyweds before moving lived in a state where the purge was not legal. now moving into a state where it is legal, they attempted to defend themselves in such an amateur way. wood boards along the door, bolting doors shut - not realizing the people in the town did not fear driving a car through their home or taking drastic measures to enter the home. the newlyweds have wealthy jobs, and so have become a target of envy. on the night of the purge, they are attacked by four people. the two now muse try to survive the night, and if needed defend themselves by all means - even if killing is required.
muse a’s parent’s are their adoptive parents, on muse a’s 21st birthday - their soul is given to satan. muse a’s adoptive parents promised muse a would be satan’s wife and bore satan a child in return if satan spared their lives ( you can come up with why ). muse b is muse a’s significant other ( we can say they are in college or something ). muse a is haunted by weird visions, and dreams of demonic baby. muse a seeks help from a psychic who later explains muse a’s future about being satan’s wife. muse b supports muse a in attempting to overturn the deal and the two go on a journey. ( you can even play around with this and say muse b is possessed by satan and makes love to muse a getting her pregnant and thus having satan’s child ).
