Sometimes the best fiction story will end up coming out of a true story -- if I have the back story and it is scarier than the story itself then I got something. I will draw off the nonfiction first then if I can come up with a true story that has an idea that can be expanded into the fiction realm I will go from there. Vice versa and so forth.
There are a lot of theories in doing a story. If you can get a nonfiction story that can scare the crap out of who ever reads it and include it with a collection of writers who do fiction predominately, and you can scare those writers then you know you've got something.
