Weird/Scary Things That Have Happened To You

[Farobi]

one time my cat ran away because i neglected it (forgot to feed it for a few days) and i didnt see him for so long and i was really sad, because even though i was a bad cat owner, i still loved him. i thought he died. i had a video recorded of him on my computer where he ran around the garden and i'd watch it all the time. then after a few weeks i watched it less and less, until i forgot about him.

a few months later, i watched the video again for old times sake, and my cat wasn't in the video anymore. it was just a video of nothing, as if there was a cat there but he was edited out of the video. it was really strange. i shut off the video and turned off the lights and tried to go to sleep. that's when i heard the meowing. i thought it was sound from the video but when i shut off the video i heard it over and over. so i turned on the lights and the meowing stopped.

i turned on my computer and played the video -- and my cat was back in it. except he wasn't running around the backyard anymore. he was just still, staring at the camera.

Video or it didn't happen

I had a freaky thing happen to me once. Well there's a couple of things

One night when I was younger I was having a really bad nightmare and some gun man with a shotgun was walking around my house shooting everyone and I woke up during the dream where he was looking for me, the last person to shoot but my dream was so damn realistic I lay frozen still, sweating and shaking waiting for a head to peer round my door. That was such a bad nightmare.

The other time was when I had a creepy ass pot doll stood in my window sil and one night I got up to go to the toilet and I noticed the doll because my curtain was partially open and it felt like it was staring right at me. So I felt a little creeped out and decided to turn my main light on.. and when I do the bulb pops (obviously the fuse shorted or whatever but I was young at the time and it was really bad timing for it to happen) so I'm in the dark again.. with the creepy ass doll.. and I had to run to my mum's room and wake her up because I was seriously pooping myself at that point
That was just awful seriously I rammed that doll into a box on the top of my shelves after that night and I've hated dolls like that ever since.

oh my god these are so scary ;___;

the only really weird thing that has happened to me was when i was younger my nana got me a really weird and creepy doll that kept turning itself on (it played this really weird song and moved from side to side) in hindsight it was a cheap doll from abroad so it was probably something to do with the wires but god it was so scary *__*

I had a video of the video but as expected the video in the video of the video disappeared

There's one story I often think of and haven't mentioned on this forum before... Guess I'll talk about that.

When I was around 14 years old, I had an online friend that I chatted with a lot. The guy claimed he was a bit psychic, and he was one of the very few people to believe my stories about precognition (which I still suffer from, but that's a different story). So anyway, one night we're just talking about video games or something, and this image flashes through my mind.
To roughly describe the image, it was a small area in a house, with two windows next to each other looking out onto a street. There's a table with chairs right next to it, the chairs are empty. But in the window stands this creature that I can only describe as half-owl half-man. While it mostly looked like an owl in the head area, its body was distinctly humanoid.
After getting that flash in my mind the guy stopped talking for a few minutes. He came back to tell me he had been checking his kitchen. When I asked him why, he told me an image had flashed through his mind, and his description of the image was the exact same one I had. The fact that I saw his kitchen without ever having visited him, not to mention the owlman... **** was creepy.

i used to see a lot of shadow figures, usually walking into my brothers room or walking towards me in reflections. because of this, i would always open reflective doors, turn on the tv, and close the blinds on windows so i couldnt see reflections. this bothered my brother, however, and he forced me to stop doing it. im still scared of reflections tho

....He pulled to the shoulder to turn around, freezes up, and next thing you know, he's gunning it and we're in the middle of a cut down corn field. I'm of course freaking out and asking him what the hell he was doing and he just turns to me, dead serious, and says: "Do you trust me? You can't be scared. Do you trust me?" I just remembered nodding and trying not to cry. I didn't understand what was going on; if he saw something, he always told me. I kept asking him what he saw and he wouldn't tell me. Taylor just kept shaking his head and telling me to sit still. The whole time he was trying to get out of the corn field, but the cut down stalks and mud were jamming the tires. A weird feeling kind of settled over the car and I remember him telling me to just focus on the cd he bought me, listen to the words, and whatever happens, to stay in the car. "It's safe in here. I can't protect you out there." Next thing you know, this otherworldly roar comes from outside the car, like something from one of those demon movies, and our car jolts to one side, as though something charged into us. All this happened on my side of the car. I couldn't see anything; there was not a damn thing outside. The car started violently shaking back and forth and he's flooring the car, trying to get us out of the damn field and next thing you know, we're tearing through the cornfield and we can hear something thudding behind us. We pull back onto the main road and keep driving until we got back to his house....

We visited our friend Toast the night we were attacked. We parked under a tree and as I was getting out, Taylor yelled at me to close my door and come out through his side. After what we experienced in the corn field, I knew not to question him so I did as I was told. After I crawled out and we went up to Toast's house, he told me that the thing from the field had followed us by managing to hold on to our car. When we stopped and he had gotten out of the car, he heard and saw the thing crawl up the tree. If I had gotten out through my door, I wouldn't have had time to react if it attacked again. The leaves and branches shook and there was a weight behind it. It wasn't a small animal or the wind. It was a weighty being.

^ Sounds like something straight out of Supernatural and the infamous Hellhound encounters... O__o

One day we were off from school because there was a snow day. My parents were out of town and I was home alone, talking him on the phone. He got really quiet at one point in our conversation and told me he had to go, but he'd call me back. I didn't think anything of it until he sent me the picture. There was a white face of a man (with black holes instead of eyes and a mouth) pressed to his kitchen window. Taylor called me almost in tears because the guy was walking back and forth between the front door and back door. He was trying to get in.

^ THIS is the creepiest one, as those gyroids-faces are really, really, frightening to me.
The vivid image of that face pressed against the window AND the "walking back and forth trying to get in" part got me to turn all the lights back on while I was reading this late last night XD

The cats one is sad but good to know there's an invisible feline pal roaming around in the house.
That I wouldn't mind a bit as long as they are not trying to sleep next to my face

Thank you littlemissmarzipanmermaid for sharing your stories!!
(Please post more when you have the time~~)

I only really hear strange noises when I am the only one in the house...

I woke up one morning with a sore throat. So, you know, I'm going about my morning, getting ready to brush my teeth and everything- and started coughing, because- y'know- sore throat.

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

I go to school at a haunted campus that used to be a mental hospital. I've heard a lot of stories about a few regular ghosts in building with the bell tower and the parking lot. As for the dorms, my ex's room was haunted. We were there alone one night and we heard footsteps, I saw shadows moving, and there was random smoke at times. The ghost also liked to knock on his door constantly, banging on it super loud and fast. I'm glad I don't live there anymore. On my floor people would see ghosts in their mirrors; I know one girl had a little boy in her mirror all the time, and ghosts would walk past them.

one day i went to the kitchen to get some toaster strudels and when i looked in the freezer they were gone

I was dating an older guy friend of mine (Taylor) that was heavily involved in the world of ghosts.
He was not only able to see and interact with ghosts (which at times got really scary), but he was able to see...other things.

On Valentine's Day, we were driving around a backroad at night and I got the brilliant idea to go to the Ghost Tracks to see what the fuss was all about. Taylor agreed. It was a cheesy dumb thrill us hicks do that has nothing to do with ghosts, unless gravity counts. Somewhere along the way, we got lost. He pulled to the shoulder to turn around, freezes up, and next thing you know, he's gunning it and we're in the middle of a cut down corn field. I'm of course freaking out and asking him what the hell he was doing and he just turns to me, dead serious, and says: "Do you trust me? You can't be scared. Do you trust me?" I just remembered nodding and trying not to cry. I didn't understand what was going on; if he saw something, he always told me. I kept asking him what he saw and he wouldn't tell me.

We pull back onto the main road and keep driving until we got back to his house. He kept rambling on and on about something and when I would ask him, he would shush me. He kept saying he had to check on Toast (our friend), which was a scary experience too.
I had a lot of scary stuff happen with that boyfriend...

His mum was murdered when he was young and they both used to have rooms side-by-side on the upstairs floor. I went up there once and he took me into her room, to show me something. It turns out he was testing if I could *feel* anything and next thing you know, I'm downstairs throwing up and things are falling off the mantle. Specifically photos of her. His mum didn't like me and she made several points to remind me.

One day we were off from school because there was a snow day. My parents were out of town and I was home alone, talking him on the phone. He got really quiet at one point in our conversation and told me he had to go, but he'd call me back. I didn't think anything of it until he sent me the picture. There was a white face of a man (with black holes instead of eyes and a mouth) pressed to his kitchen window. Taylor called me almost in tears because the guy was walking back and forth between the front door and back door. He was trying to get in.

We've seen a kid peeking through his window on the second floor; there have been random faces burned into his bathroom door. I've been in his car alone and have heard someone in the back seat singing along to the song on the radio. We had a "man" walk in on us making out on his couch. You have no idea how odd it is to look up and see a man made of just a shadow, with two white dots for eyes, watching you. I couldn't stop shaking and whimpering. A little girl followed him home from a cemetery. She was actually really sweet. It was sad when he stopped seeing her, but I guess she was able to move on.

I have tons of stories. I'm not sure if anyone's interested in them or not, but I'd be happy to share. At least they'll be coming in handy for once. That relationship was terrifying in more ways than one. We were better off friends; he was a violent lover and I was scared of him a good portion of the time.

I enjoyed reading your post so much, you have no idea how much I love other people's recounts of their experiences with paranormal/'other worldly' things. Thanks for sharing!

When I was little I really wanted the candy on top of the fridge. So naturally I climb on the counter, something I did all the time, and then stepped on the stove located next to the fridge hoping to reach the candy. Little did I know five minutes earlier my mother had used the stove. One of the scariest moments of my life was feeling the intense heat and burning sensation. Smelling the scent of burnt flesh and being too paralyzed to move. I didn't realize it at the time but I had let out a terrible scream that alerted my father and mother in the other room . He snatched me off the stove and put me in the sink for cool water before rushing me to the hospital.

I know most people are doing paranormal stories but the title said scary...so loop holes.

 

[TheBluRaichu]

I guess you guys think I'm crazy, huh? I mean maybe a little but I really have seen ghosts, one specifically well. Wish I had filmed it, would have been good evidence...

 

[Peisinoe]

I woke up and saw...myself in the mirror.

A couple weird things that have happened to me.

One day I was out mowing the lawn and I started coughing. I was coughing pretty badly when I felt something big coming up my throat. I coughed again and something came flying out. It was some sort of larva. 0_0

Also, two nights ago I was sleeping in my bed. My roommate moved out last month, but there are 7 guys in my house. I woke up in the middle of the night and heard someone breathing from the other bed. I was half asleep, so I brushed it off. Oh, Alec must be back, I thought. There was heavy breathing and a huge black (body-shaped) mass on the bed.
I woke up the next day and went about my business when it finally struck me. There was no one on the bed.

All of these scary stories are sending chills down my spine. I get chills easy but still

I'll try to share more tonight. Thanks for all your interest! I'm glad someone else thinks the stories are kind of neat too.
