40 Disturbing (True!) Stories That Will Give You The Creeps
I don’t believe in ghosts. However I have a hard time explaining how a metal folding chair that was set up folded itself up in the basement behind me while I was watching TV as a child. I flew up the stairs.
These true stories from Ask Reddit aren’t a good idea to read after midnight.
1. Stayed in a hotel with my girlfriend. We went down to the pool for an hour and when we came back in the room there was about a dozen small handprints on the window. Now I was freaked because we would’ve noticed them when we first went up to put our stuff in the room. Later talking to a guy at the front desk, he said the hotel is haunted and a lady threw herself and children from the balcony of the floor we were on.
2. 2 friends and I got bored one summer night and decided to drive up into the mountain to a spot that overlooks the town. It’s a rough dirt road and we were in a VW Rabbit. We finally make it to the little clearing on the side of the road and pull over. There are no houses on this road for miles and we didn’t see any other vehicles the rest of the night.
So we get out of the car. It’s pitch black except the lights of the little town at the bottom of the clearing, miles away. We’re all kinda bullshitting as we get out and something gets our attention. We all turn and look at the same time and see this thing running through the woods about 30 feet from us. Now this thing looked like a person, except it was glowing. Remember those glow in the dark stars you could stick to your ceiling? It glowed at about that intensity.
So we watch this thing run, pushing branches out of its way and what not. We all get back in the car without a word and start driving off in total silence. About 30 seconds later someone finally says “What the fuck did we just see?” The best answer we could come up with, as crazy as it sounds, was that we saw a ghost. All 3 agreed we saw the exact same thing.
So a couple years go by and I’m with the older brother of one of my best friends and we’re just shooting the shit. I bring this story up expecting him to laugh at me and he gets a shocked look on his face and asks if I’m serious. Apparently his teacher in high school had told them he saw the exact same thing run across that road in front of him one night. Made me feel a little less crazy.
