“When I was 16 in the mid 90s, aka the "I know everything, I'm invincible and you can't stop me" age, I got in a fight with an acquaintance while a whole bunch of us were hanging out at his house. Stupid fight, can't remember what about, but I decided fuck it, I was going home. I lived about 5 miles…”— jwiley84, reddit.com
“One night, about ten months ago, there was a pretty heavy snow storm in my area. All of the roads were closed and a curfew was issued for everybody except emergency medical personnel. I had been shoveling snow for most of the day and was dead tired come nightfall. Didn't have the energy to do much o…”— vladimir_pwnin, reddit.com
“I used to work as a 911 operator in a relatively large metro area. One night at about 3 am or so I answered a call from an elderly lady who said she didn't feel good. I tried to get more info about what was wrong — chest pain, trouble breathing, headache, is she diabetic, etc. She gave me her addres…”— penguinluvinman, reddit.com
“Not to me, but to my sister. Her husband and her had just had their first child a few months prior. My brother in law was working the graveyard shift at his job as my sister stayed home taking care of my nephew. Around 2am, she heard loud knocking on her back door. She went to go check it out and sa…”— JoshSecond, reddit.com
“This is the story of how a creepy encounter with a scary man at a harbour café saved me from something even more terrifying. It was in the autumn of 1994 and I was 19 years old. At the time my dad had been working for almost six months abroad, and I was planning a surprise visit. My dad and I have a…”— simonsdotter, reddit.com
“15 years old. I had just got home from work, so I went to my bedroom to change out of my work clothes and get ready for bed. I'm in the middle of undressing when I look to my bedroom window to catch my reflection... and I see a man's face. I dropped to the floor and turned off the lights, scrambling…”— judgeymcjudgerton, reddit.com
“When I was around 16 my rapidly growing family finally moved from the house I had spent my entire life in. As you would expect, we spent a lot of time fondly remembering things we used to do in the house as we were packing everything up. At some point I decided to go into the downstairs closet with…”— WybieLovat, reddit.com
“Okay, so a little back story, I live in a rural area outside of Plant City, Florida and I always take back roads because the main road takes longer. The way I drive does not have any street lights for most of the drive and its always really dark. I was driving home from work one night and it was 11p…”— breezie0812, creepytalesoftheweb.tumblr.com
“A few months ago, I was diving home from my friends house early in the morning (3 or 4 am). I didn’t exactly know how to get home from her place, but I figured if I kept going straight on the same road, I’d hit the entrance eventually. I had been on the road for twenty minutes when I saw a hooded ma…”— @needaurl-whynotzoidburg, creepytalesoftheweb.tumblr.com
“Sophomore year in college, I was alone in an apartment I shared with three other guys. I was sitting in my room doing homework when I suddenly felt a little uneasy. For some reason (I don’t know what made me get up to check), I bolted to the front door (which was usually unlocked during the day) and…”— Anonymous, creepytalesoftheweb.tumblr.com
“This was years ago, when I was a much younger lass in my twenties. I lived right by a forest that had a bunch of hiking trails through it, and I loved to take my dog for a walk there at night to look at the stars, listen to the river, get wicked baked, etc. You could expect other people there, it wa…”— Batsignal_on_mars, creepytalesoftheweb.tumblr.com
“My family moved around a lot when I was young, so my siblings and I lived in quite a few houses. One particular house was just strange, that’s the only way to describe it. From strange, siren-like noises that our parents never seemed to hear, to all the other unexplained things; I’m not really super…”— @rorrim-j-tori, creepytalesoftheweb.tumblr.com
“The house I grew up in was haunted to high Hell. There were a couple of deaths on the property that we knew of before the house was redone (it was a Habitat for Humanity rebuild). There was always creepy stuff going on and bad feelings emanating from certain rooms, but the most terrifying thing that…”— HesDeadJim_, creepytalesoftheweb.tumblr.com
“I sleep in a one bedroom apartment and every night I close my door because I don’t have windows in my room and love the pitch dark. So I drift off and snooze for how ever long and then start to stir. I casually wake up as my eyes adjust to the darkness. I check my phone and lay it back down to sleep…”— Milo_theHutt, creepytalesoftheweb.tumblr.com
“This past week, I was sleeping at my boyfriend’s dads house with his dog and I woke up because I felt something stroking my feet. I looked at the end of the bed and some shadowy figure was there. When I saw it, it turned and walked out of the room. The whole time the dog was asleep and my boyfriend…”— Anonymous, creepytalesoftheweb.tumblr.com
“I was sitting in the room near the backyard, sliding glass door in front of me. I am on my laptop when I hear a tapping on the sliding glass door… I look up to see a hand pulling away from the door. This hand was a dark grey-purple, and it’s fingers were about as long as my entire hand was. When I g…”— Anonymous, creepytalesoftheweb.tumblr.com
“I know when people are going to die. No, I can’t see the future or tell you the minute you’ll die. What I can do is walk into a room and feel death. I’ve been right an easy two dozen times now. Most recently, I knew my grandfather was going to die. You see, he had beaten cancer, multiple cancers and…”— @concreteheartss, creepytalesoftheweb.tumblr.com
“It was a year ago, my druggie friend and I [neither were high at the time of this story, according to OP], since seventh grade, always travel up to the Appalachians in north Georgia every year. We always go to the same camping site, and it’s always been peaceful and serene. Well.. We were getting th…”— fruitsnack4Fr00tsnax, creepytalesoftheweb.tumblr.com
“I remember I was at my great-grandparents place with my brother and sisters, we were playing outside with some water toy (thing that you hooked up to a hose and it sprayed water out of its tentacles) jumping over it and whatnot, our great-grandma is watching over us. In the middle of playing I hear…”— DoopHQ, creepytalesoftheweb.tumblr.com
“I was home alone a few years ago, sifting through my mother’s closet for a shirt. Her closet is in the hallway between her bedroom and bathroom; it’s all connected. Well I take a shirt into the bedroom to try it on and what happens? I hear a thud and something rolling across the tile bathroom floors…”— oliviatroy, creepytalesoftheweb.tumblr.com
