People Share The Creepiest Unexplainable Things That Have Ever Happened To Them (30 Stories)
Most of us have a few stories to tell of things that we’re sure happened to us, but don’t have any rational explanation. It can be fascinating to speculate about what really happened, but more fascinating still, whether we believe in the supernatural or not, to just accept that there’s no way to find out. Someone on r/AskReddit posted this call for people’s best stories of times they experienced a “glitch in the matrix,” or a moment when reality just didn’t check out, and reading the thread is a journey down a rabbit hole.
Here are stories from people who either made contact with some things beyond the world of the living, got a premonition of a serious real-life crime or accident, or had all of their senses deceive them.

So this has always bothered me. I was 13 years old at the time and my dad was a coal miner. He worked 3rd shift (known as the 'hoot owl shift) which was midnight to noon. As such he got home around 2 pm and slept till around 9, got up had dinner with us and left for work. My dad was always pretty gruff and constantly yelled at us if my younger brother or I made too much noise and woke him up after getting home from somewhere(which as an adult now I completely understand). So one day I did something to wake him up, I forget what. Anyways he calls me back to the bedroom and I'm expecting to get a dressing down but he just looked at me and said. "it's ok. Come over here and give me a hug". What 13 year old boy wants to hug their dad? I kinda squirmed a bit and he followed up with "What if something happened to me?" and just layed there all grizzled and tired..... I didn't hug him. That night there was an accident in the mine. He saved everyone on his crew, including the one person he went back in for. His was the only death, and I'm convinced he knew it was gonna happen. I'll never forget his eyes that day If someone asked you for a hug give it to them. I love you dad

My Dad was very ill for a long time. I’d been visiting every other day for months (lived almost hour away), I was married, worked FT job and had two teens at the time. So, I was very stressed to say the least. I cut my visit short that Sunday, hugged him, told him I loved him and said I’d be back later (To make up for the shortness of this visit)because I had some running around to do. I was just SO tired, and ended up falling asleep, didn’t make it back down. He passed away that night. Fifteen years later I still regret not going back down like I promised him. It does suck when you have a regret of that magnitude.

My husband and I always made up before sleep, always stayed at the window to wave bye, always said I love you. He died last year one night, unexpectedly, in his sleep. But I don't have regrets. I miss him so much, but my heart has peace. Always let your peeps know you care about them.

My friend Sarah was in a nightclub, drunk off her face, when she got an overwhelming urge to tell a total stranger that her leg hurts (edit: it didn’t). All a bit strange, she ignores it but it doesn’t stop so she walks up to this guy and says, ‘I know this is crazy but I’ve got a huge urge to tell you my leg hurts. I know that’s crazy, again! Sorry!’ But he bursts into tears. Turns out his dad had just died and they made a pact before that if there was an afterlife he would get a message to him saying a totally random phrase, so there could be no mistakes, which they decided was ‘I’ve hurt my leg.’

I know some people won't believe this sort of thing, which is ok, you believe what you want. But when my grandpa passed away, I had many dreams of him coming to visit and tell me he'd be okay. There was one where he said "tell your grandma to stop or else I won't be able to go". Grandma had been crying too much, blaming herself for his death, wishing he'd come back. So I told her about the dream, and she made sure to take it easy. My last dream had him leaving the house, giving me a sad look as I told him to stay a little longer. I know we go somewhere when we die, y'all... and it is comforting, in a way. Miss ya grandpa.

I totally believe that but I think there is a very non metaphysical explanation. we often dream about things that weigh on us, both consciously and unconsciously. These dreams may have been a combination of both.

Yup, I've been "that girl", unknowingly passing on messages, MANY times in my life, since childhood. Freaks out others. I just kinda accepted it, as (just like her), I don't "know" that I'm doing it at the time, til the other person explains what happened. Once this happened over many months, with me making so many references that were directly related to my new friend's recently deceased husband. I had no idea she had ever been married, let alone widowed, as she was still under 30, and had never mentioned him. Stuff, that there was NO way I could ever know, including nick-names that only he called her, and common foreign-languages that she never knew I spoke. So, yeah....

I have a good one. I was about 12 years old, and woke up in the middle of the night needing to take a leak. I walked across the hall to the little bathroom, hit the lights, and was about to reach for the toilet when I glanced up and saw a face in the mirror. It was not my face. It was as if someone was on the other side, standing to the right, with their face right next to the glass, staring at me. I only saw it for the briefest moment, but it is seared into my brain. I screamed, and ran out of there to find my Dad. Of course, my dad investigated, then calmed me down, or tried to. Eventually we had a prayer session, because I was so freaked out. Eventually I must have gone back to sleep... Fast forward to my 30s. I’d forgotten all about the event. One night while visiting, my dad quietly brings it up. “Remember that one time you saw a face in the mirror...”. It suddenly came back to me in a rush of memory, sending a chill down my spine. “Yea, I remember” “Well...” he said, “I sometimes think about that night.” He looked down at the floor, with a serious expression. “I saw it too.” He went on to describe exactly what I’d seen. We have no idea what that was. Apparently when he investigated, he saw it and had a freak out of his own. Apparently the prayer session was as much for his own nerves as mine. I respect him for keeping that tidbit from me till my thirties, but I kinda wish he’d never told me.

I'm weird about mirrors in the almost dark. I had one connected to the back of my dresser across from my bed and took it down. When my room was still at night with only moon light shining through my window I swear I would see things move in the mirror when I wasn't looking directly at it.
RandomPandaGuyHamiltonLafayette 4 years ago
I once looked in a mirror and saw my Dads face, looked in again and it was my face. We do look very similar, but distinct enough differences to not be confused with each other.
Many close encounters can be explained by false memories—that is, when information that you learn after something happens influences you to recontextualize or even imagine more details to what happened before or during the event, recreating it so clearly that it blends into your memories.
For example, the pall that a death or accident casts over your memory of the day that it happened could influence you to believe that you had a foreboding feeling that something was wrong, or that a coincidence that happened earlier that day was warning you of what was to come.

This just happened today. My daughter (4) was playing in her room on the second story. I was two rooms away, playing my guitar. Very loudly, I heard my daughter screaming "daddy come to the guest bedroom, I want to show you something!" This immediately seemed off. We have an extra bedroom, but I had never heard her call it that before. While she also has pretty good speech, this was amazingly clear. When I walked around the corner, into the bedroom to see what she wanted, I saw two little legs sliding out the window. I jumped across the room, and grabbed my daughter by her ankle before she could fall out. After a not great moment where I yelled at her, then hugged her, then yelled again, then apologized for yelling and hugged her, I finally calmed down. We had a talk about why we don't play in windows. While I was putting the window back together (she had pushed and popped out the storm and screen window from the bottom) I asked her what she wanted to show me. "What?" "What do you want to show me? You asked me to come see something" "No I didn't daddy." "Are you sure? You told me to come to the guest bedroom." (A little whiny now, and annoyed) "No I didn't daddy!" "You didn't ask me to come to the 'guest bedroom' to see something?" "No." "Okay..."

It's sort of a "protective parent" thing, I believe. While I've got a ton of stories of stuff that is too weird to believe, this one backs up my theory: My daughter and I lived in an upstairs apartment when she was a teenager, and that morning she was out on the balcony and I was in the kitchen. Suddenly I hear her scream and I start running. As I have my hand on the doorknob ready to open the door to the balcony, she screams again. I pull open the door, she's been stung by a wasp. I do the first-aid thing and get her calmed down, then she asks me, "How'd you get to me so fast?" I replied, "I started running when you screamed the first time." Her reply was, "Mom, I only screamed ONCE, when it stung me, and you were pulling open the door right after that."

I once heard a voice tell me to leave my place of work. I didn't, but I should have listened. Something bad, and very unexpected happened next. It was bad enough for me to quit that job, and I really needed the work at the time. Another time I heard a voice telling me that I would see a person I was missing terribly, at a particular place, and time in the future. When that time arrived I didn't think it was going to happen, but as I was going out the exit door, that person was coming in through the same door. If I ever hear that voice again, I will listen.

I once clocked out of work at 6pm (like I always did at the time) and began my hour long train ride home. After I had found a seat, I went to sleep and woke up just before my station. From the station, it is a short bus journey (10-15 minutes) to reach home. During the entire journey, I didn't use my phone and I don't wear a watch so I didn't really notice the time anywhere. When I reached home, my family surprised me with "You're home early, everything alright?". I look at the wall-clock and it is about to be 6pm. I was too shocked to understand what happened. Checked other watches, cellphones etc and the time is absolutely right. A few days later, the admin emailed us the timesheets for the month (times clocking in and out), and every single days for me was around the same 6pm. So it certainly wasn't me having left work earlier. To this date, I haven't figured out how I gained between 60-90 minutes that day.
Karen Johnston 5 years ago
Just a thought, maybe he left early, not realizing it. And some nice coworker saw he left early, and clocked him out at the correct time.
Pseudo Puppy 5 years ago
Easiest answer: a glitch in work's time system. ie their clock was running fast, so you left "on time" according to their clock, which was an hour or so early in real-time.

Because no family has ever staged an elaborate prank on a single family member before... and one like this would be so easy to do.
Kate Johnson 5 years ago
How easy would it be to get the cellphone to change its time, online sources? Yeah, families have tricked single family members before, but they're not going to get everyone online to go along with it. The only "easy" thing about it is the ease of finding the *real* time somewhere. (Not to mention the fact that the sun doesn't set an hour early/ later for a lame prank; you'd notice it if it were dark an hour early/later. Americans go through that discombobulation twice a year and that'll be all you hear about for at least a few days.)

One day when I was about 8 I didn't go to school because I was sick. My friend was suppoused to bring me homework etc. but he never came. My granddad came home from work and he told me that that friend was dead, I was devastated. That night I had a dream. I was with my friend at a playground next to our school and we were talking, then he told me that he is safe and it didn't hurt when that car hit him. The next day my mother wanted to talk to me about that situation and she asked me if I wanted to know what happened. I told her that I know everything because my friend told me. She thought that my granddad told me but he did not. He said that he did not wanted to tell me without her knowing it. That night I had a dream again and I was talking to him again. We were playing and having fun and he told me that he really had to go and we wont see each other ever again. The next day was his funeral and I really havent had a dream about him ever since.

My best friend passed away before he reached 40, and I sometimes see him in my dreams. We just chat like in the good old times, and hug. I asked him once - but you died, how can you be here? He answered "Would you rather that I don't come visit?" "Of course not!, I told him, - I'm happy that I can see you once in a while, even if it is in a dream."

So this kids' funeral was two days after he died? Well, could be a Muslim country, I guess.
Tiffany Hargrove 5 years ago
That makes me think about the dreams I have now about my mom who passed away a few years ago. We do things like shop and go out to eat as if nothing has changed. Guess that's her way of still visiting me occasionally to keep our bond.
The effect can be even stronger when there’s more than one person there to back it up. This happens so often in relation to history and pop culture that it has come to be called “the Mandela effect” (named after the belief that Nelson Mandela died and his funeral was broadcast on TV in the 80s, decades before he actually died in 2013) when people who misremember a public event the same way compare their memories and are certain that with so many witnesses, it must have happened.
It’s not surprising that a smaller version of this could happen if you and a friend go through something harrowing together and then try to get your story straight.

1985. My ex wife and I were sleeping. There was a small sliver of light coming in through the window from a streetlight, so the room and bed were dimly visible. Our black Pomeranian was at the end of the bed asleep. I dreamt that I woke up, reached down to pet him, and he turned into a glossy black bivalve/oyster thing which opened up to reveal rows of gleaming glass teeth. I woke up to my ex backpedalling up the bed over the pillows towards the wall. I asked "what's wrong??" She said, "what is that shiny black clam thing with the teeth at the end of the bed?? Where's the dog?" We had had the same nightmare at the same time. This still gives me a chill.

How weird... When I was around 7, I had the same dream. It creeped me out a great deal, even though I loved (and still love) dogs. It was a little dog that had sort of "iron denture of gleamy teeth", as I could describe them at that age, that was chasing me as I ran, and I knew that if he has bitten me, I would have died. For days and days after that, I kept fearing to go to sleep. I can't ever forget it. I was thinking about it the other day, and it still creeped me out. Now it does even more.

In the '60's my mom was little and both sets of grandparents ( except my mom's dad's dad he had died)were staying over for the holidays. Her mom's mom said when she woke up why did they rearrange the furniture during the night and why was Ben (my mom's dad) up drinking all night.every one was confused. Ben was in garage tinkering all night like always and no one touched furniture. Her mom's mom had described how the furniture was long ago before bens dad died(house had been in his family) and she described Ben's dad to a T and he used to stay up drinking all night. It's like she walked into the past.Ben's mom cried.pretty sure her mom's mom had never met Ben's dad.

I died. I saw it, I lived it. Either it was another world with a version of me that died I saw or I'm going crazy but I DIED. We had a pep rally in school and after it was finished we had to go back to class. Well, my friend and I were not into that so we wanted to to across the street to Sonic. Across the school there is not heavy traffic, but if you don't pay attention you could get hit. Well I remember walking with him and he dropped something so I went across the street first. I just saw a red Tahoe heading right for me and I got hit. I remember everything. I remember gasping for air, I remember waking up and sleeping again. Then nothing. All of a sudden I was back in the stadium again and the EXACT SAME WORDS came out of the principal's mouth. My friend wanted to go get sonic but i was freaking out. Was asking him everything. I thought it had to be a dream, so I went with him just to see what would happen. He dropped his stuff again and I waited. To my horror, that same red Tahoe showed up. I told him that I'm going back to school, I ain't dying again. I can still see the other version of me on that street just messed up. Not even moving.

I remember being pretty young like 9 or 10 and I was the car park of a pub in England (Southend). I remember seeing someone in their teens in the window of a house looking over the car park. They waved at me and I felt like I knew them somehow. My parents asked who I was waving at and I said just some lady in the window over there. Didn’t think much of it. Fast forward 10 years. I was at my nans new house. I remember walking into her room (which I never was allowed to do) going to the window. I then realised I was in the house looking over that same parking lot and remembering that interaction years before. Then a girl around 9 or 10 who was in said car park waved at me and I waved back. I felt like I knew her. Could not explain it and have never told anyone about it. It freaked me out.
If you’ve ever had a bizarre experience with no apparent explanation, though, it may not be worth speculating about what psychological phenomenon could have really caused it. In most cases, it’s not like there’s a way to test it or find out, for better or for worse… so we’ll never run out of weird stories to tell in the dark.

Might get buried but oh well. When I played baseball as a kid, they were handing out the trophies at the end of the season. They called out the names of the kids while we received our trophies. They're happened to be a kid with the same name as me. We met after the ceremony because it was weird since our last name isn't a very common one. We had the same birthday and everything. We looked alike, both our Dad's were named Derek and both of our sisters were named Lilly. As a kid, I found it cool. As an adult, I find it cool and also disturbing

Exactly one day before my 21st birthday, I was leaving my sister's apartment. As I approached my car, my sister said "Just in case I don't see you tomorrow, "Happy Birthday!" Just so happened that a lady was leaving the next door neighbor's and overheard this. She said "Tomorrow is my birthday too!" I wished her a happy birthday (had never seen her before in my life), and went home. Later, we became friends after seeing each other on occasion when I would visit my sister. After realizing we were born the same year, we started finding out all kinds of things we "shared." Born 30 minutes apart, delivered by same dr., lived across the street from each other in Chatt. when born, our mothers were in the same ward, both families have 2 girls 1 boy, her birth initials A.B., mine B.C. We always thought it was so cool that we met again 21 years later in a small town an hour away from the hospital and city we were both born in, then became neighbors again!

Sounds like those stories about twins separated at birth who end up having freakishly similar lives. My husband was adopted, given up at birth. Ended up finding his bio-dad Gil. Gil didn't know anything about the child, but a couple years later had a daughter and named her Stephanie. He didn't know until my husband contacted him that he would then be named *Steve*! It's not like the twins or anything, but having his son be named the masculine form of Stephanie was still a pretty neat coincidence!

My late uncle used to say he never believed in God, and he believed in Thunder instead (it's a god from my country's old mythology, a Baltic God called Perkūnas). He died in summer and his funeral was held on a beautiful sunny day, no clouds in sight. As they were closing the casket suddenly the only window in the room burst open (it was definitely closed shut) and we heard a super loud thunder roar. Everyone freaked out instantly. I was around 16-years-old and I remember it clearly. This was the only thunder that day, no rain followed and no clouds in sight.

In college, I took a hard news/soft news journalism class where one of the assignments was to write an obituary for one of my grandparents. The professor told us to write it on a deceased grandparent, but if all of your grandparents were still alive we had to choose one. In my case, all of my grandparents were alive. I procrastinated actually doing the assignment until the night before it was due because it seemed like a morbid assignment (especially once all of my grandparents were still alive). Scramming for an easy grandparent to write about, I gave my mom a call and asked her for some basic biographical information about my maternal grandfather. As we were talking about my grandpa's career, my mom couldn't recall the name of one of the companies he worked at. She lectured me about waiting until the last minute to write the assignment because it was late -- 10:30pm my grandpa's time. However, she said she would give him a call to see if he was still awake and be able to answer that question once my assignment was due the following morning. When my mom called my grandpa, my grandma answered the phone in a panic. My grandma frantically explained that the paramedics had just arrived and were performing CPR on my grandpa because he had stopped breathing and lost consciousness. My mom was able to stay on the phone with my grandma until they took my grandpa to the hospital, where he was declared dead. In the time my mom and I had been talking on the phone about my grandpa's "obituary," he was dying. (His death was entirely unexpected at that. Although he was in his eighties, he was the healthiest of my grandparents at the time. We ended up using the obituary I wrote for that writing assignment as his actual obituary. Still freaks me out when I think about the timing.

I had a similar experience. My grandmother was in hospice and I was at home at one of the very few days I wasn't by her side. I was folding laundry when I had this over whelming urge to write a poem. It was about her and it basically read like my grandpa was coming to take her home (he had passed almost two years prior) but at the end you figure out it was Jesus coming to cross her over not him. I thought it was weird when the next day my dad said that at the time I was writing the poem she had opened her eyes and smiled and when my dad asked her what was wrong she said "Dad said he's coming to get me." it freaked me out and I didn't share it with anyone when a week later she passed. my poem ended up being used in her memorial.

I had a very important document that I only ever kept in one place. I kept it in the top drawer of a small filing cabinet. I never moved it and would always see it in that drawer whenever I opened it for whatever reason. The day came that I needed it now and I didn’t sweat it because I knew exactly where it was. Well, I be damned if it wasn’t there. Cue panic attack.
I tore that filing cabinet up. I removed everything and spread it out, flipped papers over, dug through envelopes, shook everything out, shined a flashlight all through the emptied cabinet in case it was somehow stuck to the sides... I mean, it was not there!
I can assure you no one took it or was messing with me. I was so frustrated. I even looked through other parts of my house... but I knew it wouldn’t be in any of those places and it wasn’t. I was intermittently going back to that dumb filing cabinet. No luck.
Super irritated, I searched the rest of the house again and, on my way back downstairs where my filing cabinet was, I called out in frustration, “Okay! Bring it back!!!”. I don’t know who I thought I was talking to because I was alone, but you guessed it... I found it in the top drawer of my filing cabinet where it should have been in the first place.
I was relieved and totally freaked out.

One day I took my engagement and friendship rings off so I could do the dishes and when I went back to get them off the bench they were gone. I checked everywhere and moved everything. Months went by and still no sign. My partner and I started organising our wedding and when we went wedding ring shopping I found a nice engagement and wedding ring set so we got that. A week after we got the rings off layby my original engagement and my friendship ring were exactly where I left them months ago. I put it down that maybe my daughter picked them up, lost them and then put them back but I just don’t know.

My mom, married almost 47 years at the time, had been working in the flower garden. She’d lost weight, so apparently when she took her gloves off, or tried to put it in her pocket, her engagement ring fell to the ground. She, my dad, my brother and I all looked around and didn’t finding it. Fast forward a couple months and I guess my brother used his metal detector and found it, on their 47th anniversary. Also, it was the day I had the ventilator removed and I woke from the sedation I’d been under for a week. I’d gone into cardiac arrest the week before, but obviously was revived.

This happens to me all the time. I get super mad that I cannot find something that never moves. Then I ask my wife "have you seen X? and she says "have you checked the top drawer." Then I reply "Its not in the top drawer, I've literally emptied it and been through everything....oh, there it is. In the top draw." Yeah the brain glitches things out of your perception sometimes.

Once I checked my wallet because I needed to check how much money I had, but I found it-empty, I had just come back from hanging out with my friends and I knew I hadn't touched it since I came back, I opened it and I found EVERYTHING gone, even my two-dollar bill, I panicked, I checked it like 4 times and looked in my purse, I didn't find anything. The next day I checked again and I found that everything was back where it was, I was shocked and I knew that I didn't dream it because my mom was really surprised too and she had checked it multiple times too.

About 20+ years ago, I was at my brothers house and a friend of his was there. When the friend went to leave, he could not find his car keys, which had been sitting on the couch next to him the whole time. Same thing, we all started looking for them and each of us took the cushions off the couch to check if the keys had fallen in. Nothing. After an hour or searching the rest of the house we went back to the living room to find, you guessed it, the keys sitting on the cushion where they should have been all along. BTW, this is the same house where my brother's saws all disappeared from the drawer he kept it in, only to reappear months later. After he sold the house, the new owner complained all around the small town that the house she just bought was haunted. She even tried to file a complaint that my brother had failed to disclose that the house was haunted when he sold it.

Yessssssss. Something similar happened to me with my wallet. Came home late and I remember DISTINCTLY placing it on my nightstand just as I’ve done for years and when I needed to go the store the next day it wasn’t there. Wife and I tore up the whole house, car, etc. I even went to 3 places of business I went the previous day thinking I lost them there...but no. I finally gave up and just figured I lost it forever somewhere. Fast forward several months later. I was going through a tote that I hadn’t opened in years. At the BOTTOM was an old pair of pants I hadn’t worn in years. As unfolded them my missing wallet dramatically went flying from one it’s pockets and landed in front of my feet. The only POSSIBLE explanation is I woke up in the middle of the night grabbed my wallet got on the floor grabbed the tote that was under my bed neatly took out all the cloths found that pair of pants stuck it in the pocket put everything back and went back to bed without waking my wife up.

This summer I bought my girlfriend a last-minute birthday trip to go kayaking around the San Juan Islands off the Washington state coast. After a long drive and ferry trip, we found the tour group of about 20 people and were then shuffled into a shuttle van for a ride to the beach. Now, my girlfriend has a unique name similar to the name of a famous painter. Let's say it's Rebecca Warhol just for fun (it's not). She's a little ray of sunshine, and started chatting with the middle aged woman sitting next to her on the shuttle as we waited to leave. The woman noted that she had always loved the name Rebecca, as it was her mother's name. They made pleasant small talk in the van until the tour guide passed around the sign-in sheet for all of us to fill out. That's when things got strange. My girlfriend wrote her full name on the sheet and passed it on to the woman, who immediately shouted "Oh my God," and started crying. After a few minutes of total confusion, she told us "Rebecca Warhol was my mother's full name, and these islands were her favorite place in the world. She passed away this summer from cancer and we've traveled hundreds of miles to spread her ashes here." We were STUNNED. I literally picked a random date, time, and tour company, and THEN we were split into the same group as this woman AND my girlfriend was sitting right next to her on the shuttle. What the hell? She continued by saying, "My daughter told us that Nana Rebecca would be with us on this trip, and I didn't believe it until now." It was the most unbelievable coincidence we had ever experienced, and has totally convinced me that there's more to this world than we think. As my brother later said, the Universe winked at us that day.

I remember driving my car to this intersection in this rural area and I'm checking both sides because of terrible blind spots. In the corner of my eye my mother is sitting there and says something like "it's all clear my way" I look back and she isn't there. My mother had been dead for a few years at this point. This was also in the middle of the day and I've never had it happen since.

Loved ones from our past DO come back to protect us. Almost 8 years ago my daughter got hit head-on by a drunk driver on a two-lane bridge. Just before the impact she felt some hands at her shoulders holding her back, and a weight on her lap. I'm pretty sure the hands belonged to my best friend and one of my cousins, both of who loved her very much and would have come back to do something like this. As for the weight in her lap, my dog Peanut had died just the day before...

I had a strange premonition just before a car accident. It was at night and I saw headlights reflecting off trees as we were about to pull out of our driveway, my father was driving. The image triggered a clip of a dream / memory that we were just about to be involved in a serious crash, even though the car was 50 metres away and we weren’t moving, I had my head on my lap way before the car appeared and then t-boned us. And in the other car was my best friend who lived 6 miles away.

Taking the trash out at night, super remote area so I know for a fact we're the only ones around here, getting close to the road and I hear very clearly "help me" from a female voice. Even knowing there's such a slim chance of there being another living person around, I still feel like I should look around and check it out in case I wasn't just hearing things and someone actually needs help. Take about two steps in the direction I thought I heard it, hear a giggle in the same exact voice, turn around and walk promptly back up the driveway because f**k that s**t. Anyone who actually needed help wouldn't be laughing, I don't think.

Reminds me of an encounter I had once. Long story short, one night, I kept hearing a dog whining in pain/fear. After some time, I decided to go looking into it. I couldn't get up the hill where I thought I heard the sound, so I shone my flashlight up and called to it in an attempt to coax it down the hill. Suddenly, the whining stops and there's all this rustling, like the dog is coming down the hill. I can track the path by the sound, but I can't see anything. It breaks at my feet and nothing is there. Nothing up or down the street. I noped out and went home. Never had an experience like that since.

I usually break this out when someone asks for a "ghost story," but I don't believe in ghosts, so we'll say it fits this category.
I have always loved exploring abandoned buildings in the American west. Mostly ghost towns, abandoned mines and such, but old ranch houses and other building can be interesting, too.
In 2005, I was in central Nevada, heading for a week long exploring trip. I passed an old house on a large (former) ranch property that I know had been inhabited just a few years earlier, but now appeared to be abandoned. No cars on the property, about half of the windows boarded up, etc.
The front door was open, so after shouting out for any inhabitants with no response, I walked into the house. It had seen other visitors before me. A few windows were broken from the inside, and many of the few belongings left behind had been rummaged through and strewn about. I walked upstairs, and began walking from bedroom to bedroom. Pack rats had begun their takeover, and their droppings littered the floor. I walked into what was once decorated as a little girls room. There was a cheap brass bed frame, and the mattress had been slid partially off the frame and onto the floor. Some clothes and toys sitting around would lead me to believe the girl was quite young. I peeked into the small closet, which was bare with the exception of a few wire hangers left on the rod. When I turned to leave the closet, there was a girl, around 5-6 years old sitting on the bed, which had somehow had the mattress returned to its normal position.
She said "Hi, Mister. What are you doing in my room?" I panicked, and immediately realized that the house wasn't abandoned, it was just that the family living there was living in extreme poverty. I began apologizing, and explained that I had yelled hello, and nobody answered, so I thought the house was abandoned.
"It's okay, Mister. Mommy isn't home. I haven't seen here in a long time. Maybe you could help me find her?"
She stood up, walked toward the the open window and sat on the ledge, looking out on a vast empty field of sagebrush.
I asked her to come downstairs with me and we would go find her mother.
She started to stand up from the window, but turned around suddenly and said "Oh no, he's coming! I have to go, Mister. He's coming! You should probably go too." She then kicked her legs over the windowsill and jumped. I raced to the window, and looked to the ground, expecting to see an injured little girl, but there was nothing there. I raced back downstairs and out of the house. I looked around as I walked back to my car, but saw nobody.
She wasn't what I think of when I think of a ghost. There was no transparency, no foggy haze around her or anything like you would expect from a movie "ghost." I still don't know what the hell I saw. I pulled into Austin, NV later that evening and met up with the group I was planning on exploring with. We went for drinks that night at a local bar, and after a few drinks they convinced me to tell my story to the bartender. He listened, and then asked me to confirm the location of the property. When I described the location and condition of the house, he explained "Oh yeah. That's the old _______ ranch. Sounds like you had a visit from Nellie. She likes to chat with people that stop by. She's harmless." He then explained that the original owner disappeared in the late 1960's after leaving a note saying the family was moving to Alaska, so he could try his luck at gold mining in the Yukon. He was later located in Oregon, and largely suspected of killing his wife and daughter, however no bodies were ever found. His version of the story was that the wife and daughter did not want to leave Nevada, and left him somewhere along the way.
I absolutely loathe telling this story, because I don't believe in ghosts or the paranormal, and I feel like I'm trying to tell a spooky story to a group of children. I went back to that house 2 more times before it was burned down a few years back. I never saw or heard anything unusual since my first visit.

A minor one but why not. My wife and I are space nerds, so we follow pretty much all news regarding space travel. Of course, we're all hyped AF (if skeptical) about the whole Starship thing. And the glitch is exactly about that thing. About 3 years ago, SpaceX YT channel posted this vid, showcasing the first iteration of their Mars craft. I watched it on like day 2, with my wife sitting behind me, eyes wide and in absolute awe. We finished watching, I turn back - and see that incredilous look on her face. "But we already watched this... Some three weeks ago" I look at the posting date - nope, nada, it was definitely 2 day ago. I do a quick search in YT and Chrome history, going all the way to the beginning of the year - obviously, no trace. I even check the internet and ITS (as Starship was called back then) was not even revealed 3 weeks prior, at least not in any video published by SpaceX or any other official site. Then she starts going through things I apparently said back then, during that previous watching, up to quoting my exact words - some of which sound pretty similar to what I thought while watching the vid (but definitely didn't speak aloud, as I was too stunned and awe-struck). At this point I recall that at 2:40 timemark, she had said something along the lines of "Look, now it's going to deploy panels, it looks so funny" - and the scene happens then, a few seconds after her remark. So either she actually saw the vid before me, or guessed the moment, based on what was being shown in the vid. We chalked that up to either her watching it a day prior, just after it got uploaded, and forgetting about it, or an actual harmless glitch (I actually believe in glitches, kinda in a Pratchettesque manner of 'things just happen - what the hell').

Considering current experiments in quantum science this is quite believable - it seems that cause and effect are not as straight forward as we thought. Sometimes one comes before the other or both things happen at once. We don't generally notice this because our brains make time seem linear just to keep things simple.

Weird but happy. About 5 years ago in November we lost our family dog to cancer. She was the dog my children grew up with, loved by all. At the next Christmas, at the end of the day of gifts, food and family, as I was picking up, I found a tiny pewter dog figurine sitting on the mantel. I asked everyone who had been at the house that day if they left it. No one had. Okay, weird, but took it as a good omen. When my eldest went back to college at the end of that Christmas break, he asked if he could take the little figurine, to remember his dog. Of course, I said yes. A week or two later, picking up around the house, there was the figurine again! I called my son, and said, “You forgot the dog figurine!” He said, “No I didn’t, it’s right in front of me on my desk!” I had now found a second figurine!! Again, no one claimed any knowledge of it. No idea how....but I still have the two of them tucked away on a shelf to this day.

I've told this story before and could go into a ton of detail but here's the short version. I am 100% sure I vividly remember a dog that apparently doesn't exist. When I was 16 we lived on the other side of the province and my uncle had this little jack russell named Crue. Crue went missing for several months and then turned up at a humane society over an hour away and we were all shocked this little dog has made it so far. anyway that was almost 20 years ago and the other day I was talking to my parents and was like you know "whenever I hear about Jack Russells I think about Crue and that stunt he pulled" and they had no idea what I was talking about. Insisted my uncle had never had such a dog, I must have dreamed it, etc. Honestly anyone else who would have remembered this dog has been dead for a long time and I don't even have any pictures of my uncle. I have absolutely no way to prove this dog existed but I'm sure that he did.

It's the Mandela Effect, the effect that causes you to remember a certain event while others can't. This happened to me once. I swear I remember being in an accident in Vietnam when I was 3. We were on our way to school when two motorbikes came in and crash into us. When I asked my parents about the incident (they were there since my mom was driving me), they said that my dad was never there. I swear that I was on the road, seeing my dad only a few meters from where I lay. However, both of them said that my dad was not present when it happened and that he was at work. I am still confused until this day.

This reminds me of a memory from my childhood. I distinctly remember, one Tuesday in August when I was maybe 6 or 7, My mom, dad, and I all went to this little novelty store. There was this old school video game that I was fooling with in the store while my mom and dad looked for something, and I, not realizing how expensive this game would be, wanted to take it home. My mom gently explained there was no way we could afford it, or even fit it in our already full house. As I left the store grumpy, the owner tapped my shoulder, handed me this tiny toy of a dragon that looked like the one from the game, and smiled. I smiled back and left, new treasure in hand. I still have the dragon, but when I tell my mom or dad this story, they say it never happened, and don't know where I got that dragon. It weirds me out to this day, because when I Googled the name of the video game some years back (can't remember it now) the dragon never had any merch, yet my little toy looked exactly like the game.

I don’t personally remember this, but I would see my dead grandfather all the time when I was a kid. From the ages of 7-9 there was probably 10 different incidents. My dad was an absolute pansy when it came to “ghosts” (which I don’t really believe in) and wanted to take me to the doctor. My dad had one of those bathrooms with a separate toilet room and no one that lived in the house closed the bathroom door unless they were bathing. I was playing runescape and my dad asked why the bathroom door was closed, and I said it’s because grandpas in there. That’s the only one I actually remember. There was maybe two other bathroom incidents and some incidents when I would sit on the floor and watch tv with my dad and he would tell me to go sit in the (what was once my grandfathers) chair and said i couldn’t because grandpa was sleeping. I don’t know how creepy these are tbh but they freaked out my family for sure.

After my little brother was murdered the next morning I was talking with a friend and he mentioned this other dude I went to high school with younger brother had died in a car accident a couple weeks before. Later that day I pull out a slip of paper with this other dudes number and name on it from my pants. I vaguely remember running into him a year or so before this at a club where he gave me his number. I swear I had worn and washed these jeans at least a dozen times since I had run into this dude. I still makes no sense how that paper was there and I only found it then. I call the dude and we talked a bunch it really help me deal with the situation.

Probably going to get buried, but I met someone who no longer seems to exist.
In October 2018, I developed tendinitis in my hand, so I went to see a hand specialist at my regular hospital. I remember the hand specialist really clearly. She was a really happy, talkative Vietnamese woman with straight, dark brown hair and glasses. She had a German-sounding last name, which I assumed was her married name. She was really really nice and we had a long conversation about a medical conference that she goes to. She explained that my hand issues (caused by phone usage) were the "hot topic" of the conference and that she'd probably use my injury as an example when she goes there.
Anyway, she gave me care instructions and sent me home. I was told to return if it didn't resolve in a few weeks because then I'd need to be reexamined and sent to physical therapy.
It didn't resolve and I went back. I had an appointment with the same doctor, but the woman who came into the room was completely different. She was a white woman with light brown hair, no glasses, completely different face shape, really dull and unwelcoming disposition. I was so f**king confused. I asked her her name, and she gave the same name the Asian doctor had. I asked if there was another doctor by that name and she told me no, it was only her. I described the doctor I had seen and she got annoyed and said she didn't know who I was talking about.
I later went online to the hospital's staff directory and tried to find the Asian doctor -- I couldn't. I have no idea what happened to her. I even checked my medical records to see if maybe I remembered her name incorrectly but I didn't. Both of my visits have the same doctor's name on them. I've always been confused about this and it really bothers me that I met someone who doesn't seem to exist anymore.

I was working on my motorcycle in a dirt lot where I had crashed it trying to do a sick drift, breaking off the clutch lever and the gear shifter. I had brought a wrench set with me and I was using one of them to take off a bolt when I put it down on the ground to finish unscrewing the bolt with my hand. Two minutes later I went to pick it back up and it was gone. I ran all around this dirt lot looking for it to no avail, luckily I had a spare in the car. Fixed the bike and drove back to my apartment to shower as I was filthy. I walked in my room and sitting on my desk was the wrench. I was dumbfounded

That happened to me, but with a needle. I was sitting on the sofa embroidering with a special needle that I only have one of. I was changing the colour, so I put the needle on the coffee table and picked up the new yarn, cut a piece of it and reached for the needle. It was gone. Looked everywhere but couldn't find it. My dog showed me that she needed to go out, so I opened the front door and directly saw my needle on the railing outside.

I've lost count of the number of things that have just vanished without a trace. My fav--in my ex's apartment, we were watching a movie and this framed photo falls off the wall behind us. It fell behind the chest of drawers right below it, like we heard is CRASH to the floor, sound of glass breaking, etc. We got up to pick it up and clean up any broken glass and.............. no framed picture. Anywhere. No bits of glass, no pieces of the frame, no nothing. It was just gone. We pulled the drawers away from the wall, checked under and around all the other furniture in case it somehow slid across the floor or something. Nothing. We just kind of looked at each other like, "ok then." Went back to our movie and never mentioned it again. He never found that damn picture.

This gave me chills, because when I was 12, our house burned down in the city and we moved to the middle of nowhere on family land. I was outside one day trolling around and I found what looked like a silver chain in the dirt. I pulled it, and out came the chain and the cone-shaped little pendant attached. The cone-shaped pendant had a blue-ish green jewel in the middle and the flat chain at the clutch said '1928'. I thought it was cool, cleaned it up and started wearing it. I even have a school picture with it on. It would disappear randomly and then show up months, sometimes years, later, and always in a weird place it had no place being. I would lose it at my parents' house and then randomly find it in my dorm kitchen years later, things like that. It always struck me as odd, and I'm still not sure if it was a goodluck charm or not (the last time I had it, I won state 4-H and got a free paid trip to DisneyWorld, etc, but my grandmother died suddenly).

Around 12 years ago I had a dark purple 3 series BMW which I drove to work and parked in the same spot for around 3 years. I sold the car due to mileage and wanting something a little more reliable and purchased a different car. 1 week later, I turn up to work to find my purple BMW parked in my parking spot. I was totally WTF? Turns out that we had a work-experience kid start that day, and his dad had dropped him off in my old car that he bought 2 days earlier. What are the chances of that? I've never met this kid or his dad, and yet here was my old car in my/its space.

Similar experience with a car here too. Twenty years ago I had a boyfriend; his father bought a new car and I was the first non-family passenger on it. Time went by.... A few years later his father sold the car and switched to another one. Boyfriend and I got married and moved to another town. Six months later, We saw that car parked in front of our new marital house. We laughed at the coincidence. Time went by..... Husband and I got divorced. I moved into a new house in the same town. One year later, that very same car is parked in my new complex. The owner lives in my same building. Twenty years later that car still follows me.

My wife passed away a year ago today. Had a some odd things happen like a couple of old meaningful pictures show up that I swore were in storage.

It was like she was saying "Hey this one is real don't lose it!".

I'm really sorry for your loss. . When my daughter with 1 y.o died I used to wake up with the feeling of a elephant standing on my chest. One day I dreamed about her, she was in a beautiful green field, have some flowers there. She hug me, I touched her hair, and she left to go play. I didn't want let her go. I wake up with feeling of touching her hair in my hand and since that day I never dreamed about her again and my heart felt in peace. It gave me some comfort, although I still wish to have her visiting my dreams. It's been almost 10 years.

omg I had a ring that was my grandmothers and one day it fell off my hand while sleeping. I tore the bed apart, I moved my bed I vaccummed everything. Eventually I gave up sat in my living room and cried. I spoke out loud and said "I'm sorry grandma I know I always lose everything, I didn't mean for it to happen. I love you" I walked back in my room to get tissue and stepped on the ring in the middle of the fresh vacuum mark I had just left. It wasn't there ten minutes prior to that. Thanks Grandma.

We bought a house and found out the owner had died in the spare bedroom, after this our heavy dining table and four chairs would be in a different place each morning, this happened for about 9 years 'til we lifted the carpet and scrubbed the floor, we didn't do it before because it was nearly new condition. True story. We are still there and all is ok.

My mom told me a story that still baffles me to this day.
When she was 10-years-old her parents went out for the evening, asking her to let them in when they come back. She wasn't left alone tho, there were two of her older siblings there too, but only her room was on the first floor, so naturally, she'd be the first one to hear someone banging on them. So the parents come back at around 2 AM and my mom wakes up. But she's not in her bed. She's standing holding a friggin WINDOW!
She now realizes that someone is banging on the door loudly, puts the window on the floor. Lets the parents in and they're scared, asking what took her so long. Then they see the window and they're all shocked since my grandpa knew there was NO WAY someone could get it out without tools. My mom tried to lift it, she couldn't it was too heavy.
She says she doesn't remember how she managed to unscrew the window but is still shocked it happened.
Final score:
42points

Removed a painting from the wall during a late evening cleaning, put it away and returned to the wall to see a never before seen painting on the same spot, put a chill down my spine.

I lived in a shared house while at university, and it was a freaking odd place. Things would go missing in plain sight and then reappear moments later. Not just small things like lighters but big things, jackets, plates, text books. We got so used to it we ended up accepting it. Everyone would leave the room for a minute and when you came back in whatever was missing would be right back wherever it last was.
The living room had a sliding door that gave access to the hallway. We were poor students so all the radiators in the hallways were always turned off and we only heated the bedrooms and communal lounge, so that door was always closed. Most nights the door would have a good rattle. We were all inner city kids and just put it down to passing busses. Until someone pointed out that we were out that we lived on a residential street, no busses, no trucks and the underground tube trains came nowhere near the place.
The neighbours came around one evening and very politely asked us to stop banging up and down the stairs late at night. That caused a uncomfortable moment when we apologised but mentioned we thought it was them banging up their staircase.
The weirdest moment was me in bed one night sleeping, waiting for my girlfriend to get back from a night out with her girlfriends. The bedroom door opened, and I felt the bed “bow” as she climbed in. I could feel the warmth of someone beside me but it didn’t feel like A, I rolled over and there was no one there. By this time you just accepted weird stuff happened, it never felt “threatening”.
I am a scientist and an atheist, I don’t believe in weird s**t, but something was f**king wrong in that house.
I sometimes wonder if it was something to do with my girlfriend then A. She was named after an elder sibling who died young, before A was born. At times she was capable of the weirdest s**t - I had long hair back then and the part of London we lived in still had a culture of “freak bashing”. I remember someone starting to pick a fight with me in the pub one night. He pinned me against a wall and got in a few solid punches when A stopped him in his tracks with a calm statement along the lines of “listen, I know your mother left you when you were 6 and your grandmother brought you up. I know she died last month and your are angry, but this isn’t going to make you feel better. She loved you, she wouldn’t want you to be like this”.

Ok my sister and I were playing the age old game of "Get the f**k out of my room." If you've never played it before, all you do is try to get the intruder out. I managed to get her outside the door, but she always trying to push it open while I was attempting to close it. Suddenly, I slam it shut, meaning I won. I turn around and there is my very confused sister wondering how she ended up back in my room. In her confusion, I managed to get her back out.

it isn't creepy but.. when I was in high school I had a dream I was in all white class room (totally white, like the ones you would see in a dream), and a girl was sitting in the chair on my side. During the dream, I knew it was a dream because that girl was a senior; we didn't have common classes .
About six years later, I was at a master class, the sun was shining bright outside, the classroom was very illuminated, and I see this girl on my side. We are doing masters together... and having a class, in all white f**king classroom.
Of course I remembered the dream at that very moment.

This happened around 1991. It's the middle of the night. I'm standing in my sister's living room and it must be a full moon, because even though it's around 1am and the lights are off, I can see clearly. There's a mixing bowl with popcorn kernels in the bottom on the floor in front of the tv and some rental VHS in a pile nearby. I hear a noise and turn around to see my sister's normally very friendly labrador retriever looking like Cujo. Fangs bared, snarling, hackles raised. Suddenly there's a bright flash of light and I wake up like I hit the bed from a great height. I think "That was a weird dream." Eventually, I fall back to sleep and in the morning I call my sister, planning to tell her the story, but she preempts me by telling me about the weird thing that happened in the night. They woke up to the sound of the dog snarling at about 1am. Her husband thought there was a prowler in the house, got a gun and went to find the dog. She was standing in the living room snarling at the middle of the room. He couldn't see anyone, so he flipped on the light. No one was there, the dog instantly stopped snarling and walked to her bed like nothing had happened. He checked the property and went back to bed. We talked a bit and I found out they watched some rental movies and "Of course we had popcorn, why?" My sister is a little woowoo at times, so I decided not to tell her about my night. She lived about 450 miles away by the way.

I had just pulled into the parking lot of where I worked and was walking towards the building. It was like 3 in the afternoon, broad daylight. All of a sudden, I heard an ambulance’s siren start sounding. Naturally, I looked down the road to try and see the ambulance. I see it approaching and decided to watch it for a bit. It was quickly getting closer, and it was about to pass right by me. However, there was a large SUV waiting to turn out of the parking lot and onto the road, blocking a few meters of the road from my view. The ambulance passed behind the SUV, probably about 50 feet away from me at most, and I vividly remember the siren becoming completely silent in that instant. The ambulance had vanished entirely as it passed behind that SUV. I was so confused. The road did not have many cars on it at the time, and it was broad daylight. I did a triple-take and made sure that I didn’t just miss it. I had a clear view of the road going both directions, and there was no more ambulance to be seen. No more siren either. I walked up and down the road, trying to find it for a solid minute. But nope, it was gone. I was well rested, not on drugs, and I didn’t have a history of hallucinations. It seems dismissible, but I was completely aware of what happened, and I can’t explain it to this day.

This happened about 20+ years ago, well before the The Matrix. It was exactly like that Matrix scene, but instead of a cat, it was a person. It was on the morning bus ride to school, in the late fall, early winter. I always rode the window seat because I would listen to music and had to hide my walkman (this was in a time where having electronics on school property [including the bus] was banned), the point of saying this, I was always studying every details of what I saw outside while keeping my calm. Bus comes to a stop, and I look out and see the kid walk from his front door to the edge of the driveway, wait for the driver to signal and walk across. I remember he was wearing a navy blue jacket that had purple stripes on the sleeves. This kid I knew enough of was "fashion conscious" and never wore the same jacket more than once a week. He gets on the bus and takes his seat. I wait for the bus to move, but it doesn't. The delay makes me curious so I look out to see if there is a reason. And I look out and see the kid walk from his front door, to the end of the driveway and wait for the driver to signal, wearing a navy blue jacket with purple stripes down the sleeves, he walks across, boards the bus, and takes the exact same seat. Every single detail between the two moments were identical. the car in the driveway was in the exact same position, Clouds in the sky, the car who stopped for the bus, everything. That family only has one kid...

It's happened to me. I was like 10 and my siblings were playing frisbee golf with a really old frisbee that had sharp edges. Me, being stupid decided to walk right through their game. I walked right into the path of the frisbee and I remember staring it it and being like "huh". Time just slowed down and I felt like I stopped walking. I got out of the way, and my siblings said I never stopped.

When I was a teenager, my family lived in a big 115 year old brick house. Plenty of creepy stuff happened but one night I was heading to bed when the door between the first floor kitchen and the basement stairs absolutely SLAMMMMMMED shut. It had a unique sound that I recognized immediately as the kitchen/basement door. There were no windows open that could've caused a draft. Our dog was asleep on the second floor. I was on the second floor. My parents were both asleep in the third floor attic (had been converted to a master bedroom). None of us could've shut the door. Terrified, I worked up the courage to go investigate, carrying my hilariously teeny pocket knife for protection. As I went downstairs I turned on every light. When I reached the kitchen, the door was wide open. Even more freaked out I ran back up to bed (leaving the lights on). A minute or two later, I heard a definite "sssshhhh ok ok" from downstairs. I laid in bed and was ready to accept my demise. Eventually I somehow feel asleep and in the morning I was there first downstairs (I woke up before my parents and dog) and found that the lights were all off and the basement door had been shut again.

I wouldn’t say that this was creepy, but it’s definitely one of the most quaintly surreal things I’ve ever experienced: So, back in 2016, I was injured at work and for about six months my life consisted of going to physical therapy and being confined to bed until I could walk again. With that in mind, I had a lot of time to read books. One of the books that I was reading was “Ex-Heroes”, by Peter Clines. Now I don’t know about anyone else, but when I read a book I like to “cast” the characters in my head, coming up with how they look. One of the minor characters in this book was named Ilya and, because I know someone named Ilya, and because the book is set in Los Angeles where I live, the Ilya in the book became the Ilya that I knew in my imagination. But then, something strange started to happen. The Ilya in the book made specific references to movies like “Aliens”, a movie which the Ilya I know is a huge fan of. The Ilya in the book was a big fan of firearms, as the Ilya that I know is. Put into words, these details seem slim, but there was something so strange about the character in this book that I eventually reached out to the Ilya that I knew to ask about it. Turns out that Ilya knows the author, Peter Clines, who had put him in the book! What are the odds that I would choose to buy a random book, with a story that takes place essentially on my street in Los Angeles, and features someone I know in real life as a minor character? That blew my mind, and it’s easily one of the most surreal experiences I’ve had.

When I was a kid I had a dream. A bunch of us kids were playing hide and seek near my house out in the snow. I started digging into the snow to hide and came across a dead girl. The very next day, I was walking home from school and pretty much in the exact same area I dug in my dream, I saw the girl. Same hair, same face, same jacket. I was across the street but I kept staring at her while walking, she eventually noticed and I ran off. Never saw her again. Was the weirdest thing ever.

Every night I go to bed about two hours before my husband. I always wake up when he comes into the room. One night he was gaming with a friend and it was hours later I heard him sneak into the room and crawl across the floor so he could pop up and scare me. I felt the floor kind of shake and felt him bump clumsily against the side of the bed in the dark. I held out my hand and asked him not to scare me, I was already scared enough and begged him to just take my hand and come to bed. I couldn’t see anything in the room, but knew he was there and just waited for him to jump up so I could move on and go back to sleep. That’s when I heard him talking to his friend in the other room. I was frozen. I know there’s sleep paralysis or lucid dreaming or something that explains this, but I would have sworn on my sons life that someone had crawled across the floor and jostled the bed.
Eventually I worked out of the fear enough to grab my phone and text my husband to come in and turn on the lights and check under the bed. But holy s**t, it boggles me how real it felt.
Michelle Hernandez 5 years ago
I had a very vivid dream where something just off the edge of the bed was pulling the covers off me really hard. I got so scared in the dream I woke up crying and made my husband look under the bed- naturally nothing there. Some of my superstitious friends said I needed to get a Curandera to bless the apartment because that was a bad sign of very bad juju. We bought a house shortly after and moved out but to this day I DO NOT sleep close to the edge or let the bed covers get near the edge of the bed.

I've got several kids and night terrors are always a bit freaky, but once you know it's normal and what it's like, you kind of get used to it. But my middle child had something happen a couple years ago that didn't seem like it could be a night terror. He's almost five now and has been pretty advanced in academics for a while (somehow learned how to read the names of numbers and colors and such and I accidentally found out one day when I caught him reading what I had written). He came into my room very upset one night. Night terror. Except he was fully awake. I know they can seem like they're awake but they're not. But I had him doing math. 3+2 is? ... 5. Asking very high level questions about things. He seemed fully alert and aware. But he was seeing something my wife and I could not see. Something threatening and scary. "The fly" was going to get him. He shrieked ear piercing screeches, consistently turning away and back to the doorway into my master bath where he saw this thing that was invisible to me. This happened for a few nights, too. I could only reassure him that he was okay and nothing was there and we would protect him. "You're okay. You're okay, " I'd tell him. He always darted down the hallway between his room and mine for a few days after this, reassuring himself by saying "I'm okay, I'm okay, I'm okay" as he ran. Poor thing. Freaked my wife and me out completely.

Night terrors are very scary. Apparently mine were so bad, my mother just gave up and had me sleep in her room every night, with the bedroom door locked so she would definitely hear if I tried to go out. Also slept with my eyes open (I think I still do sometimes....), so I'm pretty sure the whole family thought I was possessed until the night terrors stopped.

Well my story is a bit creepy cuz i lost myself, this was like 7 years ago when i was still in high school, it was a normal day all classes went well till the math class began, the teacher was explaining the lesson and how it was related to the previous lesson we had the previous day, everything the teacher was explaining was new to me and never heard before so i was like yeah sure I wasn’t paying attention again during that class, so i opened my notebook to check what i wrote about that class - I always write everything discussed during math class cuz i sucked at math and my dad was strict about it which got my teacher to be strict also with me - and found nothing about the previous class, i asked my friend sitting next to me to give me his notebook to make sure and i found like a whole new material from the last class that I’ve never seen before, so I started investigating after the class going around asking my class mates this crazy question “was i here yesterday during the math class? ” And they were like “what ?” And I explained the whole thing to them and apparently I WAS NOT THERE, i attended both classes before and after the math class and wrote everything of both classes in my notebook but i have no memory where i was during the math class, and the schools where i live have a “one class system” where students stay in their class and teachers come to them for the lecture then leave and the next subject’s teacher comes and so on, so we know each other well and everybody i asked said that I wasn’t there during the math class. So yeah, i lost myself for approximately an hour.

Around 12 years old I was watching megas xlr, or something that was on at the time. Sitting there I noticed that the sun just turned off. Like completely. I was real confused, opened the blinds and it was dark. Show was still at the same spot, but the clock on the cable box said it was 5 hours later... My best guess for what happened was that I passed out without realizing it, like those nights where you lay in bed and blink and suddenly its morning. So I'm guessing I fell asleep sitting up, for exactly enough time to have cartoon network play a rerun of the show get to the exact spot I fell asleep at. Was surreal tho

Similar experience, walking home in a residential neighborhood at night, i was 14 at the time and this car is driving behind me very slowly, too slowly. It pulls over about 5 ft ahead of me and stops. Alarm bells were already ringing at that time and I BOOK it home. Just pure adrenaline, I burst through the front door, hyperventilating, manage to get out what happened to my dad who takes off sprinting down the street. Sure enough dad finds the car and is like what’s going on man. The guy laughs and says his car died, he must have really scared me for me to run like that. Hardy har. Good laugh at my expense, dad says I’ll be right back, I’ll jump you. Dad goes back literally under 2 minutes ( this was maybe 1 1/2 football fields away from my house, but not a straight shot) and guy isn’t there. Well guess who’s laughing now? No one because it was terrifying.

This didn't happen to me, but to my mother and aunt when they were younger, and to this day is the creepiest thing I've ever heard. So one day when they were around 16 years old they were alone in the house for a couple of hours while their mother was out working. I don't remember exactly which one of them noticed this but one of them walked into the kitchen and was shocked to find that the stove had somehow been ripped open all the way into the oven. My mother described it as is someone had stabbed the top of the oven, slashed it, and then pulled that slash open with their hands. Both of them saw it and when I asked my aunt about this story she gave me the same description. Also, this was definitely not a visual hallucination because they swear they reached with their hand from inside the oven to the top through the hole. They both swear they were sober at the time and I believe them because they were raised in an extremely religious environment so it's impossible they were drunk or high. When my grandmother got home they naturally went to show her the slash, only to find it was completely gone. The stove was completely normal and there was no sign of a hole ever being there. This experience is probably the only reason why I'm not completely sceptical about the supernatural. I've got other personal experiences of this sort but they all can be explained rationally one way or another in a way that makes complete sense, but this story is way beyond me.

Back in 2017, my grandfather died of pneumonia. I was really sad because I felt like I had never loved him enough. Anyway the night after his funeral I was in my bed crying when suddenly I had this urge to get up and go into the playroom down the hall. I did and I saw this ghostly bluish-white light about a foot high standing in between the desk and the couch. I freaked out and turned on the lights, but then it was gone. I turned the lights back off and it was back. I went up to it and crouched down and said, "Grandpa?" and it shimmered. I stared at it for a while until suddenly I was exhausted. I yawned and my eyes closed but when I opened them again the light was gone. The rest of 2017 whenever I was sad or scared at night I would suddenly see all these blue and white lights around my room, sometimes in the shape of people.

I think most of the people here have experienced the "something falls down and seemingly disappears" thing, but the exact opposite happened to me a couple of months ago. Basically me and a bunch of friends were standing in a circle in our school's hallway, when suddenly we heard something fall. We all simultaneously looked at the floor, and there was a small, silver, foreign coin (swiss I think) just laying there. I picked it up and asked if any of them had dropped it, and they all denied. I looked around and there was nowhere it could've come from, and the hallway was empty, so there was noone who could've thrown it. Later we joked, that someone in Switzerland probably dropped it, and is now frantically looking for it. I still have the coin in my locker, so if anyone wants pictures, I can take some when monday rolls around.

About two years ago, I went to collect my husband from the ferry after work. My husband got into the car and as I was driving very slowly out of the car park we both noticed two people standing a few metres in front of our car. It looked as though they were strangers, older looking professionals, both walking to their separate cars in different areas of the car park. The man was reaching into his side bag and the lady was further ahead than the man, with her head turned to the right. I know the exact positions they were in because they were completely frozen on the spot! My husband and I sat there watching the frozen strangers, not saying anything to each other and then all of a sudden it was like someone pressed play and the two strangers just continued on like nothing had happened. My husband and I promised to each other that we would never forget how weird the experience was. I can't remember exactly how long they stayed frozen like that but it was long enough to freak us both out!

Two things. Each was witnessed by at least one other person and both were while driving. Once at a stop sign in a neighborhood. All of these little sparkles started swirling around in mid air roughly 3-4 ft off the ground out of nowhere. The group of them were roughly 2 ft wide by 3-4 ft tall. It lasted 3-5 seconds and then they were gone. No one was around and when I asked my passenger if he saw it too he breathed a sigh of relief and said yes. We spoke about it a little more but there is no reasonable explanation. The second happened when myself and 3 friends were driving down an empty country road. Very straight stretch. A man on a bike appeared. Someone said to watch out for him, so not to hit him and then he disappeared. Our minds were blown to say the least. Just “poof” and he’s gone.

something similar happened to me on 2 separate occasions with 2 different friends on the same street.. first night, it was late and very dark, my friend and I were driving down an old country road, she screamed out of no where for me to stop. I slammed on the breaks but didn't see anything, she was completely out of breath and claimed I almost hit a little boy, the road was a dead end, when we turned around there was no one there. A few nights later a different friend and I were driving down the same street and at the exact same spot she screamed bloody murder and said the same thing my other friend said, I almost hit a little boy but again no one was around and it was way too late for a little boy to be out.. a few nights later I was driving down the street by myself, there were police everywhere, news story came out the next day saying there had been murder/suicide. a man killed his little boy and then shot himself in the exact same place my friends screamed about a little boy

I'm not superstitious but there's this one thing. My lucky numbers are 317. And then my daughter was born on March 17 (3/17). And then After I got divorced and was nervous to start a new life I ended up getting this awesome apartment and guess what number it was? 317. Honestly knowing that it felt like my daughter saying "you're gonna be ok" made my new start ok.

I was a young boy of 5-6, I think, maybe 7, at summer camp. The supervisors took the kids to a swimming pool and we were all swimming there. One of the supervisors was throwing kids into the pool, we'd splash around, climb out, and get tossed in again, which was great fun. It was my turn to get thrown in, except I forgot to take a breath before I hit the water and went under pretty deep. Now I was underwater and I really had to take a breath and was fighting the urge to breathe. I lost and inhaled. I swear to f**king god, I'm not making this up but I somehow breathed air. I felt calmer and my lungs and body relaxed, just like I had taken a gulp of fresh air. I swam around underwater for a bit, just because it was so weird, but then I had the thought that maybe I shouldn't test or take for granted this thing that just happened, I should just count my blessings so I went up and surfaced. The rest of the day was normal and I never told anybody.
I should mention that as a very young child, age 2-4, that I hallucinated a few times. Once I was walking down a hall in my house and I started floating in mid-air. If I thought about it, or questioned it, I'd start sinking, but if I just relaxed and accepted it, I could float again. That only happened to me once, but I would have dreams where the same dynamic would happen for many years. Those stopped around the time I hit puberty, I think.
Anyway, I don't know what happened that day in the pool. My first thought at the time was that it was another hallucination, but the part I don't understand is why I so desperately needed to breathe *before* the hallucination happened, and why I was so relaxed and calm and not panicky as if I had actually breathed afterward. I even stayed underwater for a bit. It was pretty surreal.

Funnily enough, sometimes when I was little I would also find myself floating above the air in my kitchen. I am also sure that once I jumped down the stairs. Like, over all of them at once, and sort of flew down. I was weird then (and still am).

I have a memory from when I was about six, I was in a lake with my dad, but I went in too deep and started to drown. Then suddenly I started swimming and got to the shallows. I couldn't swim until I was eight.

I had many experiences as a preschooler, where I'd brag to my friends that I could float. The weirdest thing was when I demonstrated it, they all exclaimed and asked how I did it. I'd teach them and I swear THEY FLOATED TOO. We all could float, where floating around the preschool, and the teachers didn't even notice... Except one. She was a volunteer or something, a teenager. Maybe 16? I don't know, but she wasn't an adult, just a helper. She saw us float, and panicked. She asked everyone who told them how to do that, and they said me. She walked up to me, grabbed me by the shoulders, and said (I remember her exact words) "What you are doing and teaching them to do is bad. Ok? BAD. Never mess with the code." As a kid I didn't know what the hell she was saying, but looking back now I am seriously concerned she was the simulation's admin or some sh*t and I pissed her off by "messing with the code." The next day all the kids were mad at me because they couldn't float anymore.

Three times in the last year I have had a strong feeling to comment to someone about a part of their body. I've not done so because a) their people I don't see often and b) it would be weird. But a few weeks after each one of those people were diagnosed with cancer in the part of the body i felt I needed to comment on. If I get that feeling again don't care who it is I'm gonna say something.

Once when we were kids, I had some friends with an ouija board at the basement of the building where I lived. Through the stairs there was an elevator shaft that had these wide bars where you could stick your arm in them, typical old elevator design. So one night, they decided to go to the basement to do another ouija session, and I decided to drop a cup of glass through the shaft, just to scare them off. I let go of the cup, saw it vanish into the darkness, and I never heard the cup hit the ground. I stood there, confused. Next day, I went downstairs at the basement with one of my friends, and the cup was there, placed in the middle of the elevator shaft floor. The cup was upright, and intact. I was seriously freaked out by that, because it would be impossible to someone enter the elevator shaft and place the cup there like that. The cup should have broken into pieces since I threw it from the 10th floor against a cement floor.
Lenka Smetanová 5 years ago
Well actually, physic is amazing. If you drop that Cup in the good angle and it landed perfectly on bottom, there is really little chance but still a chance that the Cup will be intact. And if there is no crushing Glass there will be no loud sound just one "thub" sound

when i was 12 or 13 yo, i almost died. i was in a summer camp at the coast of the baltic sea. i knew the town, the beach and the bay very good because i came here with my family since i can remember. me and some other kids were swimming in the sea. i've never been a good swimmer but since i knew the bay very well i knew how far i could go in without loosing the stand on the ground and without being in danger. i feld very save suddenly, across the bay a thunder storm started and we all had to leave the sea immediately. i totaly lost my footing and tried swimming back to the beach but i didn't move! my arms hurt and the waves were to big and i panicked. i swallowed a lot of sea water. before i lost consciousness i saw this little gril (like 8yo). she just starred at me with a light smile. i screamed for help. i starred back at her, screamed at her but nothing. she wouldn't move a bit the next thing i know is, that i awoke at our beach just a few meters from were we started. everybody was fine, nobody was missed, the thunderstorm was over. nobody noticed that i have been in trouble just a few moments ago the strange thing is: i don't know who this girl was. I've never seen her before. She wasn't member of your camp. i didn't see her after that again. I asked the other children and the adults but nobody remembered seeing this girl... (on adult even said, that there was nobody else at the beach except our camp members) to this date i really don't know how i survived and ended up at the same spot.. my lung hurt like hell for the next days, and i am still quite afraid of swimming in big lakes/seas i like to think, that this girl was my guardian angle.. but maybe it was the reaper waiting for me..

I used to commute a lot some years ago. So I don't know If this happens to you too, but sometimes it feels like I would switch into autopilot. You enter the subway, your mind drifts away and when you arrive at your destination, you barely remember anything that happend around you. It's not like you drift away in darkness, it's just that nothing happens and your memory just ignores everything that keeps happening. 3 times, something strange happened. The subway arrived on time. I enterted it, sat down and my mind went blank. I remember, that nothing special happend on my 6 stop ride. Usually every minute, the train stops somewhere, stays there for around 1 minute until people get in and get out and then drives on to the next station. So usually my subway takes around 15 minutes. But 3 times...I basically woke up after the 3rd or 4th stop. So like 5 -6min into the ride and I lost 3 minutes somewhere. Usually in Germany, a train is only considered late, when he is late 5mins or longer.
Beh Pnkt 5 years ago
So...3 times....I lost 3 minutes on a ride, that had no outstanding reasons to have lost 3 minutes. Nothing special happened, but from entering, to the station where i switched back from mind-auto-mode, somehow the time was 3 minutes later, as it should have been on that station. Lost...somewhere in a tunnel or something. So I assume that the matrix did some maintenance :D it was a bit creepy but also cool...

When I was living with my parents, my dad was cleaning out one of his drawers and found a piece of paper with a postcode for a nearby city on, when he showed me I immediately recognised it as my own handwriting except I have no memory of ever writing out this postcode, so I punched the postcode into maps to find it is a random street I have never visited before and I have no reason to visit it.

I've had that happen too! Once I dreamed that I was at Home Depot (weird start, but ok) then my brother came up to me and said "Hey! You should ride on this cart just like I did! It's super fun!" He had been riding the cart up and down the aisle and it looked safe so I said "Sure!" And hopped on the cart and started pushing myself. It was pretty fun until I leaned too far back and it tipped! The handle part almost landed on my throat, but I managed to catch it. My parents came and helped me out, then comforted me because I was super scared. Finally they told me not to do that anymore and we checked out and went home. The very next day, guess where we are? Home Depot! AND the exact scene from my dream played out! Soo freaky yet kinda cool.

When I was 14 (1995) during the eerie calm before a summer lightning storm, my dog Daisy, (Chow Lab Mix) started barking at the corner of the basement. There was nothing to bark at. Just stone fireplace and a tile floor. Suddenly a lamp set above the fireplace had the lightbulb explode and a painting hung next to it shattering as it flew off the wall at an almost 90 degree trajectory, landing ten feet from the wall. My brother and I have theorized for years what it was. Our best guess is that lightning hit the chimney and that's what did the damage. We've never been able to figure out how our dog knew it was about to happen...

Dogs can be trained to smell the chemical changes in a human before they have a seizure - so it seems reasonable to me that not only would they smell the changes in the air from a storm but be able to tell where the changes are strongest and resulting in the lighning. Dogs are just simply amazing.

My friend and I, once as a joke tried to do telepathy. One of us, usually her, would pick 5 random items, then we would hold hands, and she would think of one of the 5 things. Say an apple, she would imagine the apple and then send it to me. The thing is I got most of them correct, and it wasn't random, I know it, it was like someone whispered 'apple' to me. But now when we're not even touching, sometimes we'll look at each other and say something like "We should draw" or "We should go to the park." Weirdest c**p ever, but also pretty cool.

There was this family who had a summer house in our village. They always came for a few weeks every summer. I was perhaps 12 years old when they first came, with their daughter, Sophia. We were a bunch of kids, 8 of us perhaps and we were happy to have a new friend. She was a bit dark-skinned, with jet black hair, a pointy nose, and light blue eyes. We've had a good summer. A few weeks after, she left with her parents. Next summer they came again. We kids went to their house to meet Sophia. The parents let us in her room, and there was Sophia, with her milky white skin, brown eyes and brown hair. We were stunned and asked her if she was really Sophia to which she replied "Of course I am" Well, kids as we were back then, didn't tend to think too much and dismissed this strange change. Again, we had a nice summer with Sophia. But after she left with her family, we talked about how all of us remembered her being black-haired, suntanned and blue eyed and how much she has changed....

We lost our cat last March, she was 16 and we had to put her down after a long battle with liver cancer. She was a long haired black cat. Her ashes sit in a box on the mantelpiece with a black cat ornament on top. Several times in the morning the ornament seems to have moved positions overnight. Since then we've adopted two new cats, one grey tabby, one black and very white. We have a motion camera set up at the top of the steps that lead down to our front door. One day we checked the pics to find a black cat shaped shadow stretching in front of it. It didn't look like our new cats, but just like our old one. I miss her a lot and it's a comfort to imagine she's come to visit. I should also note the house I live in was once an abattoir, and at another point was a funeral home, but I've not really experienced anything else. If ghosts are real I'm not switched on to them. My cat must have had to poke me very hard to get me to notice her. XD

Similar story. I lost my cat about 3 years ago. I had to put him down after a long battle of liver issues as well. He was a short haired white cat. His ashes sit on a bookshelf in my room, with a little stuffed animal cat on top (wearing his collar.) I've also adopted a few cats since then, and I'll often wake up to the little stuffed animal somewhere else in my room. Eventually I realized that one of my new cats is totally obsessed with it, and goes to great lengths to pull it off the shelf lol. After my cat died, but before I got the new cats, it would often feel exactly like a cat had just jumped on my bed, and I would be like, oh here comes ..., then I'd be absolutely devastated realizing no one was actually there.

There was also the time when she was about 2 and started waving to "someone" in a dark empty room...

We lost our cat last March, she was 16 and we had to put her down after a long battle with liver cancer. She was a long haired black cat. Her ashes sit in a box on the mantelpiece with a black cat ornament on top. Several times in the morning the ornament seems to have moved positions overnight. Since then we've adopted two new cats, one grey tabby, one black and very white. We have a motion camera set up at the top of the steps that lead down to our front door. One day we checked the pics to find a black cat shaped shadow stretching in front of it. It didn't look like our new cats, but just like our old one. I miss her a lot and it's a comfort to imagine she's come to visit. I should also note the house I live in was once an abattoir, and at another point was a funeral home, but I've not really experienced anything else. If ghosts are real I'm not switched on to them. My cat must have had to poke me very hard to get me to notice her. XD

Similar story. I lost my cat about 3 years ago. I had to put him down after a long battle of liver issues as well. He was a short haired white cat. His ashes sit on a bookshelf in my room, with a little stuffed animal cat on top (wearing his collar.) I've also adopted a few cats since then, and I'll often wake up to the little stuffed animal somewhere else in my room. Eventually I realized that one of my new cats is totally obsessed with it, and goes to great lengths to pull it off the shelf lol. After my cat died, but before I got the new cats, it would often feel exactly like a cat had just jumped on my bed, and I would be like, oh here comes ..., then I'd be absolutely devastated realizing no one was actually there.

I love how some skeptical meanie is here to downvote people's stories. You may think it's bull all you want - this article isn't for you. This discussion isn't for you. Stop trying to be negative. Science can't explain why cats keep falling on all fours, yet it doesn't mean mother nature is "invalid", wtf...

Um... Science definately tells us how cats land on all fours though?

More than once, I've almost overslept for one thing or another and I hear someone shout my name, "Michael!". Very loud and clear as a bell keeping me from oversleeping. Always no one is around to be shouting my name, and always it creeps me out.

I get that fairly often - usually if I'm falling asleep or starting to wake. I think I've read that it's quite usual and to do with the brain partly being in a semi-dream state and because we hear our own names called a lot.

About a year ago, I had this weird dream that I was down at the Lake of the Ozarks by the water. And me, being completely scared of snakes, was trying to avoid going by the rocks where they usually stayed. All of a sudden, thousands of snakes were rushing up toward me, one of which bit my ankle. I woke up sweating from the nightmare. Later that day, I was bitten in the exact spot in the ankle by a snake.
