Can most of the supernatural fans agree that 1x02 was the scariest episode of the whole series

I once saw something similar in Sokcho (Korea). In the set of two swings, one placed by the other, hanging from the same frame, one swing was as still as a statue, the other was moving. Which one was the swing carrying the ghost? ♥

depends, if it was windy, it would be the still one. if it wasn't it would be the moving one.

this one doesn't scare me as is obvious & as so many bored pandas have point out - windy night, day or even just a good breeze! though it reminds me of one playground story i learned about when visiting my aunt, uncle & cousins in Brooklyn, NY. we were at the playground playing when i asked why the rocket-ship part was welded shut. turned out a little boy on his own had somehow gotten shut in there during the day, couldn't out & no one had heard him crying, begging to be let out. my girl cousin had told me the story & she was a bit younger than myself, though i didn't really believe it. so i asked my aunt & uncle at dinner about the story & everyone got quite, my aunt was nurse & said that indeed it was true, a terrible tragedy as the boy wasn't found until a day later - it was deemed he had suffered from the night's severe cold t & that his death may also have been aided by his extreme fright. was reported in their news & papers too. still gives me the chills.

oh should have also mentioned that it was speculated by detectives & the police that another child - an older male bully may have blocked the little boy's way out with a piece of plywood. though no more ever came out in news or press so it was just left at that as far as the public knew.

So it gets breezy at night? How about the day time pretty sure they move in the breeze too. Wow grandma's rocker used to rock on the front porch when it was breezy, and she wasn't dead yet.

I went to space camp! There was a tornado, so I'd assume they'd have crazy enough wind. Don't worry, it didn't hit us :)

if there's other things like footsteps sound on the slide, giggling sound near a moving roundabout and moving see saw. then it'll be perfect

My husband grew up down the street from the graveyard it's in! He and his mom have some super creepy stories from when they lived there.

have actually read stories about her; though NH doesn't have a "good" reputation itself as far as executing women in their small villages/towns that their neighbors accused of witchcraft. during my own visits to NH it always felt a bit creepy as all townsfolk still seem to treat outside visitors with a great deal of suspicion... guess i was rather unfamiliar w/ what seemed like their unfriendly ways & felt like i amongst a horde of very old fashioned, puritans.

If you hear it off in the distance, run. If you hear it relatively close, lay down on your belly, keep your face to the ground, and close your eyes. Stay like that until you no longer hear them.

I am a born and raised Alaskan and have travelled quite a bit within the state and I've never heard of this.

Area 51a is where the real cool stuff happens, it built above Area 51's garage.

The gate to Hell is inside a chicken coop? That explains why all the chickens have been laying deviled eggs.

Every park has a rumor about this. It keeps millions of people from taking “souvenirs” from the parks. Works better than any signs !

It was probably just a bunch of drunk rednecks encountering some great horned owls.

Don't slaughter during wedding ceremony: it's gross and rude... and chances are high that you're going to end up in a meat pie ;p

Much like the Goat Man, this one just makes me laugh for some reason. Probably because I keep picturing a full grown man in a bunny costume hopping around carrying an axe.

Well, I would for sure go insane if I'd see that kind of thing, no matter in the daytime or at night.

If you think this is weird, check out the Dead Frozen Guy Festival. It's a trip.
