I felt the prickling sensation of his claw tracing down my back in the darkness and that horrible yowling sound in my ear.
He wanted his morning canned food.

Baby's first memory was her mother's last.

This one is great; it's sad and leaves a lot to the imagination. I saw one with a similar idea in the 6-word story challenge that I thought was also really good:

TIME MACHINE REACHES FUTURE!!! … nobody there …
- Harry Harrison

Here's my entry. Scary situation, but in an unconventional way:

Nude selfie attached, he sent the text message. It was at that very moment he realized he mistakenly addressed it to his boss.

The mistress turned around producing an iron poker, steaming and glowing bright orange. Shaking and sweating profusely, the bound man tried desperately to remember the safeword.

I like the concept of these, but have always felt that, like creepypastas, the execution could use a little editing. Even some of the best from the reddit thread have their effect hampered by being too cumbersome. Taking the example in the OP:
I begin tucking him into bed and he tells me, “Daddy check for monsters under my bed.” I look underneath for his amusement and see him, another him, under the bed, staring back at me quivering and whispering, “Daddy there’s somebody on my bed.”

There's just so much here that takes away from the creepiness. Too much is told, and not enough left up to the mind of the reader (where the real horror is generated). My suggestion would be for it to be something along these lines:

“Daddy, is there a monster under my bed?” his voice sweet and nervous. Smiling, I get down to look, only to see his face in the shadows as he whispers, “Daddy there’s somebody on my bed.”

It's not perfect, and could use a little reworking, but...yeah.....I guess I should try a few, but off to business now!

"Now there's no way," he thought, "absolutely no way she could tell anyone what I did." He knew she was dead... but why was her hand still moving?

I looked at the beast in the mirror and started laughing at how small and stupid it was. Then I realized it was a window, and I was looking at gata.

Two friends driving home late one stormy night break down near Stonehenge, upon looking for help one of them witnesses a human sacrifice by a group of faceless worshippers and runs back to his friend waiting in the car.

He gets back to the car and explains what he saw to his friend in the car who turns round to him and says "what, like me?"


Yeah it breaks rules but it still got me good when I was younger.

Hmm... I've given it some thought but I still don't get it. (Please use spoilers!)

I heard the gunshots in the house as I was frantically trying to unlock the door.
I finally was able to open it to see in the dim moonlight, blood smeared all over the walls and my family piled in a heap in the corner of the hall way.

...Maybe it was better or worse than my previous one, I dunno.

I was at home alone, wearing just underwear. Suddenly, a cat smashed through the wall and ate itself, turning into an inside out monster of a feline.

There is a skelington hiding in your body right now.

It wants to get out.

I am happy she finally stopped laughing at me. I can finally remove my hands around her neck now.

or

"You're free to go now", the officer said to me. Then I hear a gun clucking behind me...

When was the last time you had a dream about family, friends, people you know?

The second you woke up, you killed them.

She woke up in the middle of night eyeing her window where a hooded man with bulging eyes stood still staring directly outside fogging up her window. The blind woman had been feeling restless in her sleep for nights.

Holy mother of run-on sentences.

I looked the beast in the face and lost all hope. Then I remembered I was looking at a pair of alligator skin boots and started to smile.

He puts on music at night to escape from the demons he envisions in his dreams.
He has been hearing music for the rest of his life.

Don't shoot me, I'm new to this.
 
As I lay sleeping in my bed alone, I am gradually awoken by the most sensuous erotic head I have ever received. I see a head bobbing under the sheets, so I peek underneath to reveal...
this has become a choose your ending story (see below)

1.
that there was no one there, and the sensation stopped immediately.

I pressed the lobby button, but the elevator didn't budge. I left the elevator and felt the entire building moving down.

I woke up with my bloody hands around her throat...I've been picking up after my brother since he was 7...
 
Peering down the staircase I jokingly asked, "Satan is that you?"

He grabbed me and I turned to face his demonic visage, "Something far worse, friend."
