Awesome 100-word flash fiction. Hope you will take it to another level and bring the monster to forefront in another version of it. It's rare to get the chills in a story this short, but your story had them dancing up and down my arms.

Well done, Ulla! Writing flash fiction is really hard, but you have managed to keep the tension bubbling away with every word.

I wouldn't change a thing, and I'm delighted that I have a six left to give!

A well-written scary nightmare story. When a person gets in such a situation it feels like you are in another world. Can't move properly and it all ends with a scream.

I pasted this to my word and got 102 words. But then I counted myself and got exactly 100. Go figure. Anyway, this was a fun read. Not as gory as I thought from the warning.

a couple of nits which wouldn't change the count,

Bathed in cold sweat(,) she felt the adrenaline coursing through her body

the moon-light casting (cast) eerie shadows

Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.
hugs Heidi

These are so intriguing to read considering the challenge to complete in 100 words, especially for me who seems to drift toward being overly wordy in my writing.

With that said, you've achieved a great buildup and suspenseful read. Well Done, Ulla.

Your story denotes the feeling of impending doom. Very imaginative, it takes the reader to the scene feeling the fear of someone inside the house approaching our bedroom door. How scary, that's a true nightmare. Very well written, good luck with the contest.

Dear Ulla,

Who knows who might come knocking at your door? Put the iron bar across and fortify its beams, a monster just came calling and now you are gone. Great story although a little brief. (LOL)

Warm regards,

Winslow

You did it as far as I'm concerned. An excellent telling
of a story in 100 words or less. This took some work
and you deserve it in the contest. -Bill

Well, that was certainly a terrifying 100 words. You did an great job scaring me is just a few sentences...and you left no room for hope at the end!
