When we were on a class trip in around 7th grade our accommodation was located on top of a hill. Down the hill was a little spot with 2 benches at a small non-paved pathway that led into a forest. We were 4 girls hanging around there, just talking while we had free time. For some reason I started feeling watched out of the forest, I was so uncomfortable. I got hyperaware of my surroundings and the feeling got worse and worse. I urged the other girls to go back and after some convincing, we did. Nothing happened, but this feeling was very scary. Everything inside me literally screamed at me to leave right away. Maybe it was just a feeling without any reason. But I'd rather listen to it once too many times than end up hurt.
There was no other single soul around us who could have helped.

When my son was about 3 years old I drove him one night to see the Christmas tree outside a little church nearby. I’d never taken him there before but knew they’d do an amazing job with the lights each year. We pulled into the parking lot near an adjacent house and my son said “Ok mom but we need to leave right now because a very bad man is going to come out of that house in a minute.” I have no idea what vibe his little mind picked up on, but I didn’t question it for a second! Got the heck out!

I was meeting an acquaintance of my new partner, this very small ex military man. I have a lot of tattoos and people often try to touch them without asking me first. When he reached out to touch me my entire stomach flipped over and I could feel such a dark presence from him. It was so terrifying. Even through he was half my size I instinctively stepped back away from him and told my partner later he scared the fuck out of me. I could tell he didn’t see women as human

Booked an airbnb in Oregon last minute because we needed to wash our clothes after travelling for a month straight. Got to the area suddenly, I felt nauseous and my sister noticed how shady the area was, went inside, met the host (who lived upstairs with no separation) saw tons of saws, large barrells, and SUPER clean workspace in the garage. We RAN out of there. Always trust the gut - reported to airbnb and kept checking up, they removed him after some sketch reviews!!!

Last Halloween, I went to a house party with a friend. It was all fun until around 3 AM, when some guys showed up. The vibe was immediately off but no one seemed to notice. After a couple of minutes, I told my friend we should leave. She didn’t want to go at first, but I convinced her. The next day, we found out there was a shooting at the party right after we left.

Two off the top of my head. My husband and I had taken the skytrain into downtown Vancouver in 2011 to watch game 7 and when he said we NEEDED to leave before the 3rd period, we left. People started texting me to see where we were and I had no idea what was going on. By the time we got home, the rioting was in full swing and the skytrain was shut down. When I asked my husband why he knew we needed to leave, he basically said there was bad vibes

The other time was in Nov 2020. My husband basically begged me to take the earliest ferry back from Van Island so we could leave the lower mainland asap and drive home. I listened, and we got home safely, with a couple detours due to rising water. If I hadn't listened, we would have been stuck there for another 2 weeks, as it rained so hard that day, it flooded highways and washed out bridges. Again, I asked my husband how he knew we need to go NOW and he said he just wanted to go home
