If you’re looking for a creepy story that can be scarier with the addition of details, then “Murderer On The Loose” is the one for you. In its most basic form, it’s one of the great scary campfire stories enjoyed by kids aged 8 and over. You can add some terrifying details about the murder victims if you have kids who enjoy the gore. A man was lyin...
This story is suitable for children of about 8 years and over and is a great “all-rounder” scary story for kids. It’s a good campfire scary story for kids but can be used for sleepovers, Halloween, or any other time you need a scare. A man moved to a small town and slowly got to know a few of his new neighbors. He soon learned that most of the resi...
If you live in or visit a building without a thirteenth floor, this story is an excellent way to explain why the number isn’t used in the elevator. Use your best judgment over whether your child is mature enough to handle this tale — those over 7 years old should enjoy this one. The first hotel to have more than thirteen floors had a huge Halloween...
This story is good for scaring your kids at any time, but it is especially excellent if you’re camping, or planning to go for a hike. For a better effect, instead of just saying clap, actually clap, especially for the last line of the story. A family was camping and left their tent to go on a day hike. They were a few hours from their campsite when...
Since even the youngest of us like a little bit of a scare, this creepy story for kids is suitable for little ones as young as 5 years. For older kids, you can describe the creature in the wardrobe, and tell it on a rainy day, and suggest a game of hide-and-seek afterward. Two sisters were spending the summer at their grandparents’ house. When the ...
This one is best saved for the 10 and over set as it is a little more graphic than the rest of the stories. There’s no way of toning it down to make it more appropriate for younger kids. A man and his young teenage son lived together in a small house on the outskirts of town. The lot their house sat on was large and overgrown, with tall hedges bloc...
If you are looking for a fun, scary story for kids, this is it. Kids who are 8 years and older will enjoy this for the silliness it is. It’s even better if you can have a Hello Kitty item or picture to use while you’re describing the character. Do you know why Hello Kitty doesn’t have a mouth? No? Well, let me tell you. The woman who invented Hello...
This is another slightly gory story that’s best for kids over 10. It is especially good for children who insist they are ready to stay home alone. This is a story about when a girl’s parents left her alone overnight for the first time. The parents told the girl to make sure all the doors and windows were locked tight after they left, and not to ope...
Children aged 8 years and up will enjoy this kids’ scary story. For extra punch, load an appropriate photo onto your phone, show it to your audience at the end of the story, and tell the kids you were the babysitter in the story. A teenage girl had been babysitting for the same family for a few years. The children were generally well-behaved, and s...

- Gina Massaro
- Creepy Pair of Underwear! This book, authored by Aaron Reynolds, is both funny and just scary enough for little ones. It takes a usual trope—the unwanted item that keeps coming back—and gives it a little humor by making it a pair of underwear.
- Rap, Rap, Rap! This story is based on an old folktale. An old woman buys a house that is rumored to be haunted. At night, she keeps hearing a sound: rap, rap, rap.
- The Ghost of the Bloody Finger. A ghost with a bloody finger terrorizes a man staying in a haunted house. With each phrase, "I am the ghost of the bloody finger," he gets closer and closer.
- The Coffin. This is another story with a fun, punch-line ending. Walking home late at night, a young man passes a cemetery when a coffin begins to follow him.
