25 People On The Creepy Occurrence That Scared Them To Death

6. Someone tried to sneak into our tent while we were camping

“We decided to have a sleepover at one of my friend’s because her parents weren’t home. We decided to camp in the backyard because it’s more fun and we can be as loud as we want without bothering the neighbors. You have to walk up on a hill to reach the end of the backyard which is separated from the forest with a tall fence.

It was around 4AM and two of us were already in the tent and were about to sleep when suddenly my friend jumped in with an empty alcohol bottle and quickly closed the tent. She put her hand in front of her mouth signaling us to stay quiet and that’s when we spot the shadow of a grown man. He went around the tent a few times then disappeared. Then someone started pulling up the tent zipper very slowly so the two of us started screaming bloody murder while the other friend who just jumped in was ready to fight the intruder with the empty alcohol bottle. The person stopped halfway then – i guess- went away. We stayed there a little still shocked from what just happened then decided to go outside to ‘investigate’ because we were those stupid white girls who dies first in horror movies.

No one was there, but the thing i still don’t understand is how the person got in? We live in a safe neighborhood, but still each houses have massive fences. Let’s say someone still decided to climb in… why would he chose a 10+ minute walk up a hill? We can’t possible be seen from down there. Or let’s say someone climbs in from the direction of the forest. We were only a meter away from the fence, and it makes a huge noise if someone tries to climb over. I’m sure there is an explanation but i still can’t fully figure out. We were around 14 when this happened.” — the-pretty-one

7. I felt myself get stabbed in the stomach

“When I was in high school I lived in a really safe neighborhood outside of a major city. Barely any crime ever occurred. One night when I was in high school I remember hearing someone open my door, walk across the room to my bed, and I felt someone stab me in the abdomen. My eyes were closed the whole time, but I still remember how badly it hurt. I woke up the next morning totally fine and chalked the whole thing up to be sleep paralysis, something I still deal with. Later on I found out that during the night, one of my neighbors had been stabbed in the stomach.” — Watermelonsourpatch
