Writers I have read #1 James Herbert.

John Wholeman sat in his easy chair and smiled.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang at the door. The noise echoed around the house.

With trepidation, John slowly made his way down the stairs and saw a dark figure lurking outside the window. 'Is that you, Grandma?' He shivered.

The dark figure appeared to shuffle in response and John opened the door, very slowly....

It creaked as the door opened.
Very slowly.
It made an 'eek' noise as he pulled at it.
'Grandma?'
The door was still opening.
John's gut twisted in his stomach like a twisty snakey thing.
It was a ghost!!!!!
John screamed and ran back up the stairs, jumping into the nearest cupboard.
In the darkness he saw a dark shape lying on the floor.
'Is that you, Grandma? He quivered.
John turned on the light.
It was a rat!!!!!

It's a rat!!!!

John screamed and ran out into the garden.

Outside, it was misty. He saw a dark shape ahead.
'Is that you, Grandma?'
The shape changed shape as the shape moved.
John peered closer.
He screamed.
It was The Fog!!!!
John ran back into the house.
He then pissed himself in fear.
And died.
