Hello everybody! Today I am doing a 100 Word Challenge. It feels like it’s been forever since I’ve done one. Today I really tried to be creative and go for a spooky vibe. This isn’t my usual writing style, but I was watching Knives Out(I love this movie) while writing this, and I felt inspired. Happy reading.
It is a quarter till midnight with the color purple painted across the sky. I am delivering a violin case directly to him in the alley behind the pawn shop. I see a dark figure in the shadows and walk slowly towards it.
“I’m happy to see you here,” he says.
I want to deliver this case without any conflict, but my elephant senses can tell he has other motives. I place the case on the ground and run. I look in my peripheral view and see him chasing me.
“I have to kill you,” he shouts.

Well done in taking on the challenge of writing in a different style. I hope you are happy with the outcome. I haven’t seen the movie that inspired you but I think you managed “spooky”. I loved how you made the sky purple; totally unexpected but paints such a great image. You’ve chosen good words that fit the genre; alley, dark, motives, shadows. I look forward to reading some more of your inspirations in the future.
Hi Cath,
I’m glad I stepped out of my comfort zone because it encouraged you to write a comment. If you haven’t seen the movie knives out you really should! It’s a murder mystery based on the board game Clue. I feel so many emotions everytime I watch it and it inspired me to write something like this.
Thanks for the support,
Keeley Greer
