A short horror microfiction story "New cell phone"

A couple of months ago, my friend's cousin (a single mother) bought a new cell phone. After a long day of work, she came home, placed her phone on the counter, and went to watch TV; her son came to her and asked if he could play with her new phone.

A short horror story

She told him not to call anyone or mess with text messages, and he agreed.

At around 11:20, she was drowsy, so she decided to tuck her son in and go to bed. She walked to his room and saw that he wasn't there. She then ran over to her room to find him sleeping on her bed with the phone in his hand.

Relieved, she picked her phone back up from his hand to inspect it. Browsing through it, she noticed only minor changes such as a new background, banner, etc., but then she opened up her saved pictures. She began deleting the pictures he had taken, until only one new picture remained.

When she first saw it, she was in disbelief. It was her son sleeping on her bed, but the picture was taken by someone else above him... and it showed the left half of an elderly woman's face.

Review of True Story of Dracula

I am a 43 year old history professor. I have a wife and two kids. Whenever I get the chance, I like to go to a park nearby the house with my kindle, coffee and cookies. Usually I like to read crime books but this time I wanted to read something different.

A couple of days ago I came to see this clip on youtube - Click HERE



I was rather much taken by the clip. Therefore I went to the Amazon, LULU webpage, the clip told me about

TRUE STORY OF DRACUT - WEBSITE

To be fair the webpage did not tell me that much. There was a price, the author's own reasons behind writing it and then many, many, many reviews of the book. One or two is enough for me. In any case they were both positive. Before making up my mind I had a final look at the yotube clip.

I afterwards bought the book and was pleased by it. I asked my kids too if they wanted to know anything about the True Story of Dracula? They looked at me like I was nuts. My son telling me it is just a fictional character. I replied with "Quite right". However my daughter did show a little bit of curiosity thereby asking "Can you prove us wrong"? I gave her my kindle where it was on the front page.

She asked me "Is this supposed to tell me what happened"? I replied with "No, but it is going to give you an interesting new take of Dracula". Well she gave it a read and so did my son. They were both amazed by the story.


Therefore I would recommend seeing the youtube clip to others and maybe become as enticed as I was.
