Then, rocks gone.

"Oh, I'm sure romantic tastes can change with time", she whispered seducingly. Then she grabbed my untied hand and injected some nanomachines.
"I let him play on your Switch, it'll keep him quiet," she said cheerfully. Then I remembered I left the family bag of Cheetos open in the games room.

In a groggy rush out the door to make it to work on time, you quickly slip on your shoes, only to look down and realize it's your toddler's sneakers and they fit perfectly. As you fumble your way to the car you notice it's already running, then you hear your child's voice beckon you from the driver's seat.
This could be the draft to the Silent Hill dog ending.

I was babysitting late at night, but couldn't sleep with that statue looking at the bed. I called the owners to ask if I could take it out.
"Which Statue?"
"Which Statue?"
Hello, good afternoon, how are you today?
This is Sallie Mae and we are calling about the loans you took out.

You wake in the middle of the night to the sound of a cellphone ringing. After looking for your phone in the dark you realize that you don't use that ringtone.
I like this one.
If I were to adapt this story to a scene in a horror movie, instead of the ringtone being completely unfamiliar, I'd use a flashback that intercut with this scene as the character fumbles to reach for his phone, where it's slowly revealed to be the ringtone of the character's dentist from his appointment earlier that day. Upon fully realizing the identity of the person in his bedroom, a woman steps out of a shadowy corner and into a shaft of moonlight, where her face is revealed to be that of the dentist. The character then tries to escape, only to inexplicably fall to the ground, unable to move. The character realizes that he has been paralyzed. As the helpless victim's eyes dart to and fro, the dentist slowly walks up to him with drilling tools in hand... [CUT TO BLACK]
The noise in the middle of the night startled her, but a friendly lick on the hand by her trusty dog assured her that everything was okay.
The next morning, she found her dog hung in the shower with a note that read, "Humans can lick too."

From the trunk of the car, she could hear the policeman chuckle, "I'll let you off easy today, but get that fixed asap."
Well, since we are talking about two sentence horror stories, let's watch some two sentence horror stories.
WARNING: Some of these animations are fucking scary..especially number 10.

Nonsense. For these stories to work, they writer presenting the information must do so with the utmost succinct clarity possible. I will retreat to the mountains and return with a proper horror couplet.

I did this one on GAFa few years ago:
I dropped the gun to the floor, having killed the intruder in my son's room who was dressed in some of my son's clothes. As I looked down at my rapidly aging hands, my son began to laugh hysterically.

As I got to the front of the endless morning rush line-up, the cashier waiting with my freshly prepared drink said, "That'll be $7.75."
I opened my wallet, and saw that my only credit card wasn't there.

A three month stay in a cabin so remote he had to be helicoptered in was exactly the push Roger needed to finish writing his novel.
He hadn't quite finished patting himself on the back when he noticed with horror what was written on the toilet paper packaging in the restroom: One-ply.

She ran towards him in his wheelchair after learning all his limbs were lost in the IED from the front lines of the war, it had been 6 years. After she grabbed him in full embrace, tears crying, did she remember her phantom; she lost both arms in a tragic factory incident 4 years ago.
A turkey sandwich, on rye bread, with lettuce and mustard.
It had nice hot mustard, good bread... but the turkey was a little dry.

I go to celebrate this country's birthday with my buds at the gates of Area 51, when suddenly the only thing I see is black. Losing track of time, the veil is removed and all I see is myself floating in a vat -- of blue goo -- it must have been something I've lacked.

Ok, here goes:
You are sitting on your couch watching TV when all of a sudden, your phone rings with an "Unknown Caller" and you answer. On the other end, you hear a familiar voice, your own, telling you there is no time to explain--get out the house now. Just then, the knob on the front door of your house starts to violently jiggle...

Yes, it is 3 sentences
It's honestly a lot harder than I was expecting. The most challenging part for me was balancing brevity with clarity. It's a good writing exercise though!
I returned with the broom, the bedroom light appeared to have stunned the spider as it hadn't moved. I checked my surroundings and readied a killing blow, but in that instant it was gone.
