有哪些很好的短篇恐怖小說？

在Quora上看到「What are the best short scary stories?」這個問題，有個回答有2.8k多人upvote了，但不知道是不是語言的關係，我讀了之後並不覺得特別恐怖。你們覺得呢？或者你們有哪些自己認為很好的短篇恐怖小說？

--------------------------------------------------------

這是那個很多人upvote的回答：

Here is a creepy pasta I just love:

A man rented a room at a hotel in some town. While going upstairs, the receptionist asked him not to stop at that door that comes on his way to the room.

The man was intrigued. He took a peek through the keyhole, to find a woman in a beautiful white dress in there. The next day, on his way downstairs, the man took another look through the keyhole. This time he saw only red. He felt ashamed that he had caused the inconvenience to the lady by peeking, that she had to put a red parchment there to block him.

However, the man later coaxed the receptionist to tell him why had she told him not to stop/peek at that door. The receptionist tells him that a newlywed couple had come to stay at the room. However, the husband had strangled his wife. Now often the ghost of the wife would be spotted in the room. People reported that she always wore white, and was totally white, except for her eyes. They were red.

補充翻譯一下（大概意思啊）：

下面是我很喜歡的一個恐怖故事：

一個男人在某個鎮上的旅館裡租了一個房間。當他上樓的時候，前台叫他在去房間的路上不要在一個門前停留。

這個男人的好奇心被激發起來了。他從鎖眼裡往裡偷窺了一眼，發現裡面有一個穿著很漂亮的白色禮物的女人。第二天，當他下樓的時候，他又從鎖眼裡往裡看了一眼。這次他只看到了紅色。他感到很羞愧，因為覺得自己的偷窺給那位女士帶來了麻煩，所以她用了一塊紅色的羊皮紙把那裡遮了起來。

後來，這個男人哄前台告訴他為什麼不讓他在那個門前停留或者偷窺。前台告訴他，一對新婚夫婦曾經住在那個房間，但是丈夫把妻子掐死了。現在妻子的鬼魂經常出現在那個房間。人們說她一直都是穿白色衣服，全身上下都是白色，除了她的眼睛。她的眼睛是紅色的。

二：認識我的小孩

晚上異常的悶熱，我實在是受不了這間悶熱的房間了。去朋友明家裡納涼吹空調。朋友不在家，但是我知道他把備用鑰匙放在哪裡，習慣的開射門放空調躺著。正在這時候，門突然響了，我想是他回來了。打開門卻看見一個小女孩，她突然說：「這封信給Z你的。」說完就跑走了，我關上門，正要打開信，突然想起這不是我家，而且小女孩怎麼知道我叫Z？我嚇了一身冷汗，小心的打開信。裡面寫著：「今晚十二點看窗外。」

我想這是什麼惡作劇，還是在意的看了一下時鐘，現在距離零點還有不到一個小時。我莫名的緊張起來。我在窗邊站了好久，盯著窗外。什麼都沒看到，十二點將至，突然對面一個房間亮起了燈，我看到了明進門後然後開著空調躺在床上。如果這是明，那他是在誰家裡？如果那是他家，那我是在哪裡？我突然想起，明之前告訴我，他們房租那麼便宜是因為對面是一個廢棄的醫院，以前都成亂葬崗了。我看著窗子上慢慢溢出我身後越來越多的影子………
