an incomplete list of unsettling short stories I read in textbooks
the scarlet ibis
marigolds
the diamond necklace
the monkey’s paw
the open boat
the lady and the tiger
the minister’s black veil
an occurrence at owl creek bridge
a rose for emily
(I found that one by googling “short story corpse in the house,” first result)
the cask of amontillado
the yellow wallpaper
the most dangerous game
a good man is hard to find
some are well-known, some obscure, some I enjoy as an adult, all made me uncomfortable between the ages of 11-15
add your own weird shit, I wanna be literary and disturbed

James Patterson. You've 'written' over 200 books. You have 5 days to read all of them before the trap door below you will open, dropping you into a hoard of angry librarians and bookstore employees. This is impossible. Have fun <3

group of people wake up in a saw trap and one of them starts just killing the other ones and ripping them apart and eating them and mashing their corpses together before the video feed even starts and jigsaw logs into his little zoom he has set up to talk to the people and explain the rules and its just the guy left gnawing on a human bone and jigsaw never does another one of those fucking traps again
