here's the possible beginning of my story "Phobia" and i hope this seems terrifying enough for you.

The wind shifts as the moon rises. The ground is empty, and the trees seem to arch towards the school as if warning of danger. The school seems normal, so peaceful. But lies inside. A presence that was alone. It passes through the silent halls. The hair covers the girl’s face. The hall seems icy cold and bare. She slowly drags her bare feet across the cold tile floor. The sound this girl makes is almost inaudible as the lips ominously move slightly.
Behind the school, a lake seems to disturbed. Ripples have begins to appear and the frogs seem to fear the lake.
The sound is growing, and it seems to be almost, not human. Through the darken hall there is a door to a small closet. Legs are dangling. The pair of leg of the janitor, who is working late tonight, lifts inches from the floor. His face was full of horror and the hair coming from the ceiling, is tightening around his neck, pull

His face was full of horror and the hair coming from the ceiling, is tightening around his neck, pulling him toward the ceiling.
The girl wanders through the hall, passing the two-sided doors looking out the windows.
The sound begins to thump against the wall. The janitor is swinging side to side almost in slow motion. The eyes seem to roll back and the skin is pale.

I have on suggestion, and it isn't so much a major critique as it is a piece of advice. Try switching the tense from present to past, as it will give you a bit more comfort. I noticed in your additional details you reverted to the past tense a couple times. Also, there are a lot of simple adjectives that draw away from the description. Keep writing, get your full idea out on paper, and then worry about the details. I think that the way you're presenting it, it would come out better like this:

The wind shifted as the moon rose. The ground was empty, and the trees arched toward the school like waving arms that warned of danger. The school was oblivious to the warning. It appeared peaceful from the outside, but within there was a dark presence that passed through the silent halls alone. Bare feet dragged across the cold, tiled floor making a barely audible sound. Hair covers her face, save for the slightly moving lips which move in ominous warning.

Right as it is, it is a little bit telling in it's structure. Spice it up a little bit. Experiment with style, and keep on going with it! You've got a lot of suspense building here.

I think it's a good plot. Tells alot about what the story is based on, e.g. horror, suspense, thriller.

Keep going, you could be the next Dan Brown.
