I HAVE A TON

Like on my birthday when my dad broke into my house and stabbed my mum and jumped out a window at 2am

Oh oh and there was the time like 10 days after the same birthdya were i had numerous panic attacks after seizures and then i kept having them for over a month

and there was this one time half a year ago I lost like total control and feeling off my body and I was almost fully paralysed for a month and then I had to be taught how to move again

I'm so sorry you had to go through all that, are both you and your mum ok? (Well ok as you can be after going through that)

How disturbing? I looked it up, and it seems that it originated on reddit, so I was gonna save it until sometime when I have time to lose sleep over scary things (probably next month). If it's gonna totally mess me up, though, I'd rather not.
Yup Reddit that's where I first heard of it. I *think* I purchased it on Kindle though (can't remembered too lazy to check)
Should have clarified what sort of 'disturbing' I was referring to: there was an event involving a cat of which the boy / family feeds on a regular basis. And the floor board/crawlspace underneath the house. That's all I can say to avoid spoilers.
And no, it's not bloody or graphic. At least the writer did not go further into details.
That, and the creepiness of who/what that penpal really is.
Also the ending is a tad puzzling (and dreadful) to me, as it kinda trailed off what I would expect but yeah. *shrugs*

I've looked on the NHS website loads and all it says is to have a better sleeping pattern (to be honest, mine is horrible) and it is quite common in young adults. My dad told me he used to have it when he was younger too so maybe it's just something i'll eventually grow out of like he did.
I see - thanks for the expalnation - since your dad had it when he was younger, it's very likely that you will grew out of it!
(at least you can make improvements on your sleep pattern) ^^
 
I remember my grandmother had a ton of really old stuffed animals in a room I would sleep in when I would visit her as a child. She would keep these toys on the windowsill of the window next to the bed. I remember there was one stuffed cow that I would think was moving while I was trying to sleep. I blamed it on the fact that the room was dark and I doubted my parents would believe me. But every night I would see it move and I would take it and throw it in the closet. The next day it was always back on the windowsill.

I'm not sure if there is anything supernatural happening, but I just moved into some apartments near my college and when I'm here alone, I can hear knocking sounds coming from my kitchen. I was in the kitchen making a sandwich and it sounded like the knocking was coming from the cabinets above my sink so I opened all of them and nothing unusual was in them and I climbed on top of the counters and nothing was on top of the cabinets. I asked my roommate, who moved in weeks before I did, if she had ever heard the noise while she was in the apartment alone and she said no.
 
so many weird things but they're all jumbled up in my mind so this post is gonna be an ugly mess lmao but i feel like typin.

there's a few that stand out in my memory - like the house where I live now, when we first moved here I was like 12 I think, and not long after we moved in I remember I was up on the top bunk playing on my GBA SP (i was up after everyone else had gone to bed as usual damn you gba) and it was night time so the lights were off of course but from the corner of my eye i noticed it was suddenly brighter in the room, so i looked across the room and there was light shining out of the wall. The walls in this house are needlessly high (what is the point of this ceiling) but at first I thought it might have been shining in from outside the window, somehow, but there was no way - the window faces nothing that would explain any manner of spotlight shining in at the middle of the night, and the light was definitely shining out anyway. I quickly shut off my game and hid under the blanket and while I was hiding I fell asleep.

I think it later that same year that I fell asleep in the living room on the couch, and woke up in the very early morning (it was light-ish outside but I don't think the sun was up yet) to a bleary dark figure leaving through the front door. At the time I thought nothing of it so I drowsed off again immediately afterward but it occurred to me in the morning that no one in my family is that tall, and why would they be going outside at 5 or 6 in the morning anyway. When I asked my mum what she was doing going out so early she said she didn't, and no one else ever copped to it either. Nothing else peculiar ever happened after that iirc, so I sometimes think that if there was a ghost, that was him deciding to show himself out. haha

Before we moved here, though, we were staying at a friend of my mum's, in their basement to be exact. All our stuff was piled everywhere. There was a tall dresser-drawer that had a TV on top of it. One time I was down there by myself on my bed, I don't remember what I was doing, homework maybe (more likely playing gameboy again :P), and for no logical reason I glanced up from whatever it was, and there was a shadowy featureless figure leaning out from behind the dresser with the tv on it. I remember it very clearly - it had its hands on the edge of the dresser, leaning only the top half of its "body" out, peeking the way a person would. It was vaguely the shape of a person. It went back behind the dresser, not exactly quickly. I looked back down, not really believing what I'd seen (although i was terrified, too terrified to even move for I don't know how long), but I think i must have eventually convinced myself I didn't actually see it because I was able to get up and go upstairs at some point. But I didn't tell my mom or siblings, and I probably never would have - if my oldest sister didn't a few days later mention seeing a "strange black thing" crouching by her feet at the bed. She said she thought it was our brother trying to scare her at first, but it shuffled across the room, still crouching, and disappeared. I remember a few nights later I woke up in the middle of the night and had to pee.. which meant getting up in the pitch dark and going all the way across the basement and around to the stairs by myself... that was definitely one of the worst physical terrors of my life. even mentioning it now is still scary. I did manage to get up though (sadly I had to) and didn't ever see the shadowy thing again.

I think there was a tumblr post or something talking about "shadow people" - I saw it at the beginning of this year iirc. It said that shadow figures apparently hang around rooms that are extremely messy. Idk if it was some fake **** just to scare people into cleaning up after themselves but I couldn't help but think of that basement, and the things lying everywhere.

uh. To put it simply, I had a spider lodged in my throat. I spat it up and it was dead but STILL.

gggghhuaaa why this

on it's own btw
 
i dont have any super exciting stories 2 tell but im 100% convinced that i saw a thunderbird when i was in like 6th grade
 
not the scariest or weirdest thing but;
last night (or early this morning) at about 4am, and i woke up with my whole left arm numb and tingly (as i was laying on my ar) so i shook my arm to get rid of it, and something hit my face. It was my hand, it was limp basically and i couldn't move it or feel it connected to my wrist, and i was so scared, but then it came back to life.
 
When I was younger I used to be terrified of animal masks. This one night I had a nightmare and after awaking I noticed that my bedroom window was wide open, I didn't get up to close it because I was already afraid of the dark so I just tried to get back to sleep. I awoke later and to my horror there was a man standing at the end of my bed wearing a rabbit mask - something like this:

So I don't know whether it actually happened as during that time my family used to live in this huge flat in central Brighton (that's where I'm from in the UK, it's a big city), or if it was all just a terrible dream.
 
When I was younger my best friend and I were playing in my basement with this creepy doll I had and since it looked like both of us and we both really liked it we naturally were fighting over it. The light went out for about a minute and while we were panicking the light flickered back on and the doll was in a completely different place and position then when we had put it down. I mean it wouldn't have been so creepy if we hadn't been really far away from the doll and pulling on eachothers hair the entire time. Not to mention we were the only people in the house since my parents were on the balcony.

Masks are terrifying. What did you do when you saw the man with the rabbit mask?
 
There's a hotel in Estes Park Colorado that is rumored to be haunted, and of course I was really interested so I took a tour. The tour only consisted of me and some married couple, so that made it even creepier. The tour guide kept trying to scare me specifically, because I was a tiny 12 year old at the time. Anyways, he would sometimes yell "BOO" at me if ever got a scared look on my face. Towards the end of the tour I felt a hand sort of land on the back of my shoulder like someone behind me lost their balance and had to grab onto me, so naturally I thought this was the tour guide and I said "why are you touching me oh my god." When I just sort of stopped and realized., of course he couldn't have done it! He was standing in front of me.

I go there all the time! I've never taken the tour or anything but just walking around the hallways is really creepy, especially at night I think. I can imagine the tour would be pretty scary too.
