Liminal Spaces Scary Novels & Stories

Iris’ expression turned grave and she walked away from the family to one end of the room, she would observe what was to happen from this safe distance. A chill swept through the room, followed by a death silence gripped with fear, giving the feeling of stepping into a haunted place right after the creaking of a door would stop. The little time in space just before a scare would come, but this was not just a scare from a ghost or a creature from the dark, this was the rage of the ruler of Astaroth, and it was undeniably chilly.

But the light was very weak, it made the corridor seem like it stretched for eternity. Uri looked at the hazy space in front of her, subconsciously remembering the usual corridors of hotels or apartment buildings in horror movies. Although there were lights, the last point could not be seen clearly, the surrounding space therefore also became strangely murky. At times like these, from the darkness will suddenly appear the silhouettes of white shirts or some bloody horror face.

“Commencing the trial of the Stone of Origin.” The system’s hint suddenly appeared in Lucas’ mind. Following the appearance of the system, Lucas arrived at an unfamiliar space. To Lucas’ surprise, the small troop of Frantic Thunder Hired Troop had followed him into the unfamiliar space as well. “What...what place is this?” “What’s up with this overwhelming murderous aura?” “It’s so scary. It feels like I’ve entered into the gates of hell if I just take in a breath.” The small troop Frantic Thunder Hired Troop was terrified.

The other mind is angry, confused, and scared. She tries to help it to calm, to help it to settle so it didn’t hurt itself, or her, or the children they’re carrying. When she thinks about the children it stills, almost instantly. It doesn’t want to hurt them, but ‘it’ felt wrong. She, she didn’t want to hurt her or the children. She feels Sol pulling at her to come to liminal and she silently agrees. The next thing she knows she’s in a large white room, with wooden floorboards and two sofas and a fireplace on one wall.

Then the world flickered. It lasted barely a second — the chandelier lights dimming, the sound of music cutting off mid-note. The room shimmered, like reality itself had skipped a beat. Eva gasped, her hand shooting to her chest. A sharp pulse tore through her — not pain, not entirely, but a shock, an electric tremor of something she hadn’t felt since the Nexus. Across the room, Lucian froze. His glass slipped from his hand, shattering on the floor. His eyes locked on hers instantly — a reflex born from years of shared danger and impossible intimacy.

I said, feigning innocence. I glanced around after speaking. It was true. There wasn't a single living person in sight, but ghosts were everywhere. "This place is cursed!" Charlotte snapped. "I can't even stop. The moment I even think about it, it feels like needles are piercing my hands." Even as she spoke, her hands kept moving. Fear flickered across her face at the scene before her. The terror in her eyes was truly a rare sight to behold. "Is this your doing? Did you come up with all these tricks to scare me? You just want revenge for all the times I picked on you at school, don't you?"

Scott was so convinced that his disorder lost his sense of fear—not until he found himself almost kneeling in the middle of the cemetery with gravestones of inverted crosses. Questions started flooding his mind. Has he, perhaps, entered the other realm? No? Maybe? That—he doesn't have any concrete idea about. As of the moment, all he wanted is to know where he's at and what kind of place he's got himself into, so he could plan his moves right. Everything's too murky, yet he could clearly see every grave even those in the farthest which could no longer be seen in plain sight. Suddenly, the air became dry and hot; he felt as though he's suffocating and the crisp ground, which is penetrating th

Didn’t even flinch. His scarred hand tightened. The creature thrashed violently. The small room shook. Lena had nowhere to move. Nowhere to breathe. Riven’s body pinned her between him and the wall as he fought it. His arm pressed against her shoulder. His breath hit her neck. The creature screamed louder. Lena’s pulse went wild. Everything felt too close. Too intense. Too terrifying. Then— the creature vanished. Silence. Riven’s body remained pressed against hers for one dangerous second.

Scarlett: Pov Darkness. Complete. Endless. For a moment, Scarlett felt nothing. No sound. No weight. No breath. Only silence. Then A sharp pulse of light exploded around her. Scarlett gasped. Her eyes flew open. She was standing. But not in the server room. Not in the university tower. Not anywhere real. A long corridor stretched before her, glowing in cold blue light. The walls shimmered like glass. Lines of code moved across them like flowing water.

The thought made her shudder. After a few more minutes of silence and at an almost unbearably fast pace, the route to the Deep narrowed. The farther they went, the darker it became. Gilly slowed to a cautious amble, stepping over rocks and shuffling around blind corners. At a certain point the physical hallway ended, and the women climbed into a tight shaft that felt more like a cave shoot than a corridor. “Umm…” Little Sister’s voice wavered as her eyes darted in the darkness. “I never realized how confined it got in certain areas down here. It’s…pretty creepy.”
