“I recognize terror as the finest emotion and so I will try to terrorize the reader. But if I find that I cannot terrify, I will try to horrify, and if I find that I cannot horrify, I'll go for the gross-out. I'm not proud” —Stephen King

It's when the lights go out and you feel something behind you, you hear it, you feel its breath against your ear, but when you turn around, there's nothing there...

 Reality itself becomes warped but it is NOT EXPLAINED. Can only be interpreted.  There is a concrete cause (underlying logic) but it can’t be easily explained.  Emotional or paranoid logic rather than rational logic.
