The Unfeared

Design a horror story where the traditionally feared elements (like ghosts or dark spaces) are instead sources of safety and relief.

This theme shatters the cliché of using dark elements as sources of terror. The challenge here is to invoke fear without commonplace horror components like darkness, spirits or secluded areas. You need to re-imagine your horror setting – maybe light is what’s feared, or crowded places are the real danger. Explore the complexities of how fear can be manipulated and how safety can be disguised as terror.
