When you think of creepy and scary things, what first comes to mind? A big spider coming down on your bed from the ceiling? The possibility of a clown peeking at you from the sewer? Or is it things like government corruption and biological warfare?

According to a 2022 YouGov poll, Americans share many fears, and the number one is snakes. A whopping 30% of Americans say they have a fear of snakes, followed by heights (28%), spiders (24%), and public speaking (23%).

You probably won't find these in this list, though, because the r/truecreepy community often go for the uncanny, bizarre real-life stories, and horror movie-like aesthetics. We've collected the creepiest entries from the subreddit, and present them to you here to satisfy your morbid curiosity!

That doesn't look like Alzheimer's. That looks like some sort of delusional disorder. Schizophrenia maybe?

    As I understand it, the sense of suffocation doesn't result from a lack of oxygen, but from the buildup of carbon dioxide in the air. That doesn't happen in this situation. Our bodies don't actually warn us about lack of oxygen. In the industrial-safely training I had years ago, we were warned that "anoxia is sneaky". If you go into an environment where the air lacks sufficient oxygen you're very likely to pass out before you realize that anything is wrong.

    Poe got his inspiration mainly from the horrifying but true story of the whaler Essex which was wrecked by a huge s***m whale in the south Pacific in 1820. Eight of the 21 crew survived, some by cannibalism. Two or three of the survivors published accounts of the sinking and their survival, which were widely known in the U.S. One of the best recent works is by maritime historian Nathaniel Philbrick, called "In the Heart of the Sea". It was made into a film in 2015.

    This article details the damage the storm wreaked on the island: "A box at 33 metres (108 ft) above sea level had been broken and its contents strewn about; iron railings were bent over, the iron railway by the path was wrenched out of its concrete and a rock weighing more than a ton had been displaced. On top of the cliff, at more than 60 metres (200 ft) above sea level, turf had been ripped away as far as 10 metres (33 ft) from the cliff edge." This damage was all on the western side of the island. The article also details a plausible reason for the men's disappearance.

    Euthanasia Coaster

    Diagram of a roller coaster featuring steep drops and multiple loops, illustrating terrifying photos and stories keyword.

    The Euthanasia Coaster is a concept for a steel roller coaster designed to k**l its passengers. In 2010, it was designed and made into a scale model by Julijonas Urbonas, a PhD candidate at the Royal College of Art in London. Urbonas, who has worked at an amusement park, stated that the goal of his concept roller coaster is to take lives "with elegance and euphoria." It is a ride to the death. The seven loops or "inversions" put the human body under such stress that it causes the brain to be starved of oxygen, as the heart simply cannot push blood against the enormous g-forces. Even if it k**ls you, it is designed to still be a fun death. An honourable thought, if rather macabre.

    There really was a coaster on Coney Island from 1895-1902, called the Flip-Flap, which consisted of a rapid descent on rails into a single 25-foot diameter loop. Wikipedia says, "The design created extreme G-forces for riders, and it had a reputation for snapping necks and causing injuries. Consequently, it attracted more spectators than riders."

Yeah, great defence there dude, making you relatable to everyone. 🤦 Because who haven't the random girl locked in a basement or that dead body behind the box with Christmas ornaments. 🤷 The worst thing in my basement is those things "I will definitely donate to secondhand when I have the time."

    An Australian Diver, While Posting For A Photo Underwater, Accidentally Discovered A Body

    He was tried in Austrailia and found guilty of manslaughter, received 4.5 years but that sentence was suspended after 12 months of incarceration. That decision was appealed by the prosecution and his incarceration subsequently was increased to 18 months. After that he was deported to the US and was tried again in the US and the case was dismissed due to lack of evidence. The wife was buried by her family but the husband had her body exhumed and reburied in a unmarked plot he purchased and he would regularly remove decorations and flowers placed there by her family and throw them away, police surveillance footage showed. He was eventually ordered by the court to stay away from her grave.

    Side note- the lack of evidence in the US trial was due to the new charges having to do with the belief that he had been planning to k**l her before they ever left the states for their honeymoon in Austrailia and that he had a financial motive (he increased her life insurance right before the trip, he lied to the Austrailian diving company and said he was a certified rescue diver in order to be allowed to be assigned as his wifes diving buddy, even though he was brand new and had only taken a 2 day course right before the trip) but a bunch of evidence was blocked from submission so it just never went to trial in the US.

    The caption makes it sound like the body was left there. Wiki says she was only underwater about 10 minutes. There are witnesses to her flailing with husband either trying to rescue her or cutting off her air, depending on who you believe, before she slipped out of his arms and fell to the bottom. A dive instructor was alerted and he recovered her body and a doctor at the scene attempted CPR but was unsuccessful. This shot was perfectly timed catch of a death happening, not the discovery of a body

    This is a wild case. She disappeared June 20th after leaving a pub in a busy part of town, she was on foot with only a little money and her home was only 1.5km away. Her phone has died while at the pub, but she Then sent a text about 2 hours later to her roommate saying she'd be home late - 35km north of where she disappeared. She continued to call/text her roommate and family over the next week - all very creepy/calm conversations. When asked if she was being held captive she whispered "yes" before yelling "No!" And the call cutting out. Her skeletal remains were discovered 5 months later 20km away from where she disappeared. No indications of how she died. Police conducted 900+interviews and had 5 suspects, all cleared due to alibis. Her mother had a site up until 2023 offering reward, but finally gave up. It's still unsolved to this day... So sad...

    In 2012, 37-Year-Old Cari Farver Suddenly Disappeared In Omaha, Nebraska

    Side-by-side portraits of a woman showing terrifying changes, illustrating stories as fascinating as they are scary.

    For the next three years, her k***er, Shanna “Liz” Golyar, impersonated her through thousands of texts and emails to her family and friends before investigators uncovered the truth. Cari Farver was a 37-year-old single mother when she disappeared in November 2012, just weeks after beginning a new relationship in Omaha. For years afterward, friends, family, and her boyfriend received thousands of texts and emails from her accounts — none of which were actually from Cari.

    Investigators later discovered that Shanna “Liz” Golyar had m******d Farver and spent three years posing as her to cover up the crime. Golyar even went so far as to burn down her own house and injure herself in an effort to maintain the deception.

Also someone else will have to do the deep dive for all the info for us on this one, but if I remember correctly, the captor was holding him captive as some.type of good luck omen and the captive man said in an interview that he was unable to call for help because he was under a spell, even though he would see people pass by from his hole in the ground. Also im pretty sure the captors brother ratted him out after they got in a fight over inheritance. He posted about his secret hiding spot on social media.

    It was way creepier than that... but also destroyed. There was no reference to an apocalyptic event; only that the Earth's population should be below 500 million, which would require killing about 90% of the world population. There were no instructions; some thought reference to instructions meant there was a time capsule, but when it was destroyed none was found. Apparently, the "instructions" were nothing more than the platitudes inscribed in the stone, including that the population be so low.

    This isn't actually 'good' handwriting just because it has some swirls. Back when this was written it would have been seen as very poor writing skills. You may not be old enough to remember but Handwriting was a real course ALL school children took. As a result, both genders had beautiful handwriting. I know my dad had as pretty handwriting as my mom did because they both learned the exact skill in the exact way.

    “ Exactly 30 years later, on August 29, 2021, a car stopped in front of his family’s house. Out came an old man — it was Vasile Gorgos. He was now 93 years old, and the craziest part? He was wearing the exact same clothes he had on the day he disappeared. Vasile, who was now 93 years old, couldn’t give any explanations. When asked where he had been, he just answered that he had been at home. He remembered everything up to the moment of his disappearance, and after that — just “was at home.” Otherwise, Vasile looked great for his age — clean, well-fed, even shaved. WHAT ARE THE THEORIES There are many theories about what happened to Vasile:     Some say he worked with secret services, took part in some secret operations, and then had his memory erased. On the one hand, it sounds doubtful. On the other — it would explain why no one ever came forward and said, “Hey, I know him, I saw him recently!”

    I think the womans hands give it away. People in photos I've seen before usually have more relaxed jaw. But propping up them to standing isn't weird/hard, link in the end. They also usually either paited the eyelids with fake eyes or painted it on the finished photo. I think they did that here. The dead girls eyes are almost excatly a copy of the sisters eyes. Look at their right eyes, even the pupil is at the same place. How to stand: k2xj2jk.png k2xj2jk.png

    Usually photos of deceased set up like this have exceptionally in focus faces because, unlike their fellow sitters, they are not making micro movements to cause blur. Until I see evidence supporting this, I am less inclined to think of her as a cadaver. People who have red hands tend to look like this. You notice it in photos of people with ruddy faces.

    The Case Of The "Two Headed Boy Of Bengal"

    Split image showing an illustration of a two-headed child and a skull with an unusual deformity, depicting terrifying photos.

    In 1783, a boy was born with two heads. The second head was upside down, with the neck pointed straight up. Shockingly, the second head was fully functional. The boy claimed he could hear the other brain telling him things.
    A boy with a condition (craniopagus parasiticus) thrown into fire by his mother due to his horrendous appearance. He would go on to be exploited by his parents to be an exhibit for wealthy patrons and many f***k shows across India

    This apparently took place in Australia in 1902. The girl was named Johanne Elizabeth "Bertha" Schippan and was only 13 years old when it happened. That picture is clearly not her, but perhaps is her older sister (age 24), Maria "Mary" Schippan. You can read more about it here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Bertha_Schippan

    [unsolved] The Doodler- Serial K***er

    Forensic sketches from 1975 and 2018 showing age progression of a male suspect in terrifying photos and stories.

    The Doodler was a serial k**ler who targeted gay men in San Francisco. He would sketch his victims n*de before m*******g them. Though 3 victims survived, and a suspect was identified, none were willing to "out" themselves in open court in order to convict the suspect.

    It’s important to remember that during the Doodler attacks, San Francisco still had sodomy laws — carrying prison sentences. Even after those laws were repealed in 1976, being publicly identified as gay could cost you your job, your family, housing, and safety. Police prejudice was still very real, and hate crimes were rarely taken seriously. Coming forward as a witness meant risking your entire life for testimony that might not even add new information or secure a conviction. Under those circumstances, it’s not surprising that survivors stayed silent — it was an act of self-preservation. (Translated with help from ChatGPT because my English is not strong enough)

    The thing they say looks like a person is right in the middle in the black spot. I don’t see anything and think it’s just one of those examples of the brain trying to see things and shapes where there aren’t any. (like Jesus on toast or seeing animal looking clouds) EDIT, what I was trying to say was: Don't search the whole photo for something. The "person" some people are seeing is in the area next to the black dot in the middle of the photo. So that's the place to zoom and look.
