LEGALBOOTYMUNCHER :

How about when your walking down halls and enter a new room your back in the hall you were just in except the hall is.. different

Kipi :> :

Just by reading this I got shivers from every single thing 😭 ngl, a tear almost escaped my eyes after reading the second because of the cold

Sofia :

It would be more unsettling if it was the reader noticing something was off but these would be very difficult to write without the narrator or MC drawing obvious attention to them first and then it's just her problem and the reader will remain detached from the unsettled feeling

Apple☪︎🇮🇷🇵🇰 :

I actually have my own, reality slightly darkens and warps around him

Eleanor Eff :

corner one would have me running

¡°¤▪︎•Geum_eocho•▪︎¤°¡ :

Maybe it'd be look if the reader noticed it first, then when a character brings it up, the mc suddenly realizes "Wait... the flower was... a red tulip, wasn't it? Why was it blue...??"

My favourite way I decided to make a death scene unsettling was that when the spotlight would light up (to show your characters corpse), it wouldn't be there. No blood, no claw marks, nothing. Whatever killed them did it so perfectly there isn't even a sign they exist
