I've been thinking about this a lot myself and I figure if you are good with Skyrim's modding, you could do this well...
Hallucinations / residual paranormal recall...
What I mean by this is pretty simple. Imagine you are walking through the woods. You find a small shack in a clearing that looks to have supported a small family at one point. Upon entering, the walls would be stained with blood and turned over/broken furniture.
You get a message that tells you that you are feeling sleepy... You try to leave but the door is jammed...
There are beds in the next room, you feel progressively more drowsy as you make your way to the bedroom where you eventually collapse to the ground.
When you awaken, something isnt right, you can't tell what it is but theres something wrong. The music is gone, there is a sound of wind echoing outside... It is all so unreal.
You realize you are weaponless. Powerless. You look in the mirror and you see the visage of a person that you don't recognize, you are a child...
Is it a dream? What is happening?
You go into the living room where you find a man standing over a woman she is dead... A bloody hammer in his hand...
Mommy? What is daddy doing? What has happened?
You are reliving the last moments of a child murdered in cold blood.
When this night is over, you'll either be too scared to breathe or ready to seek revenge on the man who betrayed his family.
Dunno, but monsters don't scare me nearly as much as a warped human psyche... Experiment with scary story telling and see what you come up with!
