This is fucking terrifying.

This in my opinion was the scariest thing in this thread and that includes the seance

The Phantom of the Suburb is here... inside your wall.

Pics of the mirror and the room?

So, sorry, your parents moved into a furnished house? Or did they think this mirror was built-in to the wall? I have never moved into a place and just left previous-owner shit as-is, but that could just be me.

Fuuuuuck.

What this makes no sense.

The Pact!

Holy f*cking shit nope

Shut up Lovecraft, with your fancy gothic horror

You win the award for most creepy fuckin story.

Right as I read that a fucking firework went off.

This is the creepiest story here!

Did she live on a house, duplex, or apartment? Was the small hole a peephole that you looked through to see the other room that seemingly went nowhere or was it literally a small room on the other side of the mirror an a big hole?

This is probably the fucking creepiest thing in this thread

so, they didn't notice the hole when they mounted the mirror? lol...ok....

That will make an excellent short story. May I write it for you?

Watch the movie La cara oculta .. or make your mom watch it.

I almost threw up after reading this.

Not buying this one

No! No.

No?

Definitely No.

Bullshit. Every hole leads somewhere. How do you expect any person with a brain to believe you when you say stuff like that?

I think the first tip off those LAPD officers were fake is that they responded so quickly.

I think those cops killed someone, and she saw.

This is one of the creepiest ones i've read. If this is true it's actually terrifying to think what could of happened to that lady.

Similar happened to a friend of mine, he was having a cigarette near a hospital when this women in a gown comes over to him saying that she needs protection from the men in black suits because she knows the secret to curing cancer. She tells him that all you have to do is will it out of your body and it will be gone and wanders off out of sight... 20 minutes later a car pulls up with men in black suits and asks my friend if he has seen said woman and if she said anything to him. He tells them that he did but she didn't say anything to him. They reply its for the best. Every time he tells this story he spends the rest of the day looking over his shoulder in case men in black suits come for him

TL;DR woman in hospital gown tells my friend the secret to curing cancer and to avoid men in black suits, now lives in fear of men in black suits

Holy shit. Yeah that lady probably witnessed a murder and the fake cops took her. And she's probably dead now. Horrible. I'm probably going to have nightmares tonight about this story.

This is why you always jot down the badge numbers of the officers.

The uniforms were fake, they were the murderers just trying to get their witness back and finish the job. She wasn't crazy.

In the mid 90s a taxi driver decapitated a man and threw his head into a lot next to our house. Living in the Hollywood Hills is fun.

I'm confused... Does it usually take cops half an hour to respond to a call?

You have the right to remain silent...forever

http://www.hark.com/clips/rnrpbgmzgl-fantasy

omg, so was that lady actually reported missing? Or maybe they followed that lady around, after whatever bloody trauma took place, located your house, changed into police uniforms and got her out of your house..

Must be the work of a chameleonian.

Wtf.. I hope they weren't fakes.

creepy

Then the script for taken 3 was born

Haha holy shit

Did you ever find out what happened to her?

Isn't this the beginning to mulholland drive?

This is why you should take the time to look at their names and badge numbers.

The girl isn't the scary part of the story, the two mystery cops that took her are.

Jesus that is scary. What if one of you had just opened the door thinking it was his brother.

This should be at the top. So fucking scary I wouldn't ever sleep again if that happened to me

If a person was trying to get in knowing there is someone inside logically they would just kick the door down.

It was Slender Man.

The stupid kind, considering that there was more of you guys than him.

man, that made my blood run cold. Well done.

Drunk/high/tripping dude thinking their key didn't work to their own house...?

I mean, that's happened to me a couple of times, so I'm just saying.

Hi, id like to ask you a few questions regarding this story, the reddit PM system is a bit shit though, is there an email address I can email you on?

Ugh shivers that is some horror movie shit right there!

Wtf. Who do you think it was?

Something similar happened to my sister. She saw my little brother run to the bathroom and knowing he would mess stuff up in there followed him. However when she went there no one was in the bathroom. She went back and saw my brother in corridor. This wasn't the first paranormal thing to occur in our house. My dad works night shifts and he came home at 3-4am to find me asleep on the couch with the TV on, he's about to carry me to my bedroom when something grabs his hands almost like his hands have been tied together, my dad who's apparently accustomed to such things just pulls until his hands are free and then he saw a black shadow/ fog just vanish from the room. He also had another experience where he was going to lie down in bed when he saw my mom at 3am putting clothes out on the washing line, but thing is she was lying right next to him, he ignored it.

Fuck that so much.

My ex girlfriend's mom had a similar story. One night when she was going to bed she said goodnight to her husband, who was laying on the couch in the other room. When she got upstairs he was already up there getting ready for bed.

This was in a house they rented in Belgium, where some other poltergeist-y stuff happened from time to time.

It is still fairly light outside, but I have now turned on the lights in my room. Fuck this thread.

No, it's okay, I wasn't planning on sleeping anyway

Best explaination I got for you was a foggy mind. You walked past thinking there was someone in the chair, and that is what you perceived. Unless the blankets were completely different than when you saw them before.

In that case FUCKING GUN IT SON

Jeeezus, you win.

It was your deceased grandmother. Sometimes she checks in to make sure everyone is ok, but gets tired from time to time. The effort drains her and so she rests.

This is the first post on this so far to give me genuine shivers.

I wasn't planning on sleeping anyways.

Your user name ftw.

Fuck

Nooooooooooooope. After fully realizing it in the first few seconds what I think I just saw... noooooooooooooope. Goodnight cousin

[deleted]

you hallucinated

When I did, I saw that she was in her rocking chair in the corner, her blanket over her head, and she was rocking back and forth.

Or... you glanced at a blanket bunched up on a rocking chair and assumed it was a person.

Ninja flip out of the window

If there was an attic, or basement; anything out of the ordinary within them?

Sooooo.........

shudders...

But what if you had gone up and moved the blanket and she was there, and when you went into the bathroom she was not there?

Schrödinger's Cousin

aaaaaaand I'm done with this post, thanks.

I read these stories on reddit all the time. This is the first one that actually sent goosebumps up the back of my neck. Damn dude. Just damn.

Oh my godddd. I am reading this at work and am terrified.

When we were kids, my sister and I used to see freaky shit like that all the time. One of the most vivid was when my sister walked past my brothers room where my mom was looking at the hamster cage with wet hair and wearing a red shirt. She had her back to my sister. Then, my sister made her way into the next room, and there was my mom in a different color shirt and her hair dried and curled. There were no other adult women in the house.

Fuck this thread. It way too late for this shit

How are you not in an asylum now?

Or are you???

Great story

This is basically r/nosleep territory. My lord.

Most likely saw something out of the corner of your eye and assumed it was her. It happens pretty often, unless you got a VERY good look at her (couple of seconds or more) but if it was a glance it was likely your mind creating an image that wasn't real.

fucking what

/r/glitchinthematrix

Post this to nosleep! You gave me the real creeps, thanks bro. lol

Rocking chairs always give that horror movie affect to any story

I went one comment too far. There goes sleep.

Jesus fucking christ that is scary.

Is that something she did often? Maybe it was a case of your brain seeing what it was expecting to see?

Actually reminds me of something similar that happened to me a few years ago. After partying one night, we all went back to a mate's house and decided to crash there for the night. They all go to bed, while myself and another mate have a smoke outside.

Come back inside, getting ready to sleep and I'm looking for an available spot. Checking the bedrooms etc, they're all taken. I gaze at the lounge and see my mate I just smoked with fast asleep on the couch, and another on the other couch. I think to myself "score, that means theres a bed free in the last bedroom".

Open the door and my blood runs cold - the other guy from the couch is fast asleep in the bed. Theres literally NO way he could have gotten past me without me noticing, because he would have had to walk down the passage in my line of sight to get in there. Look back to the lounge.. empty couch...

I would have fainted! Lol

You probably saw the chair and your brain filled in the rest. With insomnia, this type of thing happens a lot to me but it can effect any person at any time.

Not sure if anyone will like this explanation, but ill throw it out there. This reminds me of a time when my parents were newly-wed and my young soon to be father was going to go to the library to study as he usually did. Except the library was closed that day so he came back and was sitting behind his desk in his room again. My soon to be mother walks by him once saying nothing, the second time she screams and was nearly scared to death because she swore that the first time (expecting my father to not be home) had only seen a pile of his clothes on his chair. The second time she had seen him. Sometimes the brain plays tricks on us based on our expectations.

Damn that gave me the shivers. Moral of the story: rocking chairs are fucking creepy.

Please get a new user name. I can't take you seriously with NUGGET_BUTT_SUCKER as your username.

That scared me pretty bad !!!!! Wtf. I would have flipped shit ಠ_ಠ

This is like The Others movie with the old woman and the sheet on her head. Scary stuff!

I wonder if the cousin ever encountered things like that?

Yeah, creepy.

Holy shit it took me a second.

Ok, that's seriously creepy.

Why is this not the top comment?! This is horrifying. I think I just pissed myself a little bit.

Creepiest one I've read so far.

Was the rocking chair still rocking?

These shock reactions are the best.

Oh shit I nearly just died. So where was I? Lemme grab dat ice cream.

A group of doctors and psychiatrists asked me to get emergency therapy but i insisted on getting my ice cream and go home.

you got your priorities in line very early in life.

You Probably should have gone to a therapist after that ice cream

40-50 cm

That's extremely close.

If he had hit you and you had died you wouldn't be here to tell this story. Makes me wonder how many people died in some accident but would have told story on reddit about how they almost died.

Traumatic memories stick better than any other kind.

Ignore suicidal man, ACQUIRE ICE CREAM.

What kind of ice cream was it?

Holy shit

I'm pretty sure thar would stick with anyone...holy shit.

You got your priorities straight.

This is way to dark to read at this time of night.

That was kind of inconsiderate of the guy, to jump when you were right there.

Dude. Therapy. Even if it's one session just make sure there's no sort of deep rooted issues. I know it sounds dopey you are probably perfectly fine and functioning but still.

Tl;dr - if a doctor says you need emergency therapy, don't skip it for ice cream.

The hospital paid for the ice cream right

What kind of ice cream did you get?

Glad you're still here. :)

I can't imagine why that would stick with you. Just a classic case of guy on the ground.

Ted finally did it.

Maybe he also really wanted some ice cream.

Do you remember it affecting you at all? Nightmares, social situations and whatnot.

I'm sorry you had to see that.

Perhaps he tried to throw himself to the ground and miss, but you screwed up his flight plan and he swerved into the nearby ground to protect you.

Yikers.

Good choice therapy is too expensive anyways

Ice cream > therapy.

I've had both.

Do you think about it every time you eat ice cream? You will now.

You're lucky he didn't land on the hood of your car, while it was parked in the perfect parking spot

i was walking out the ground floor of a building just as someone threw himself out the fourth floor window and onto the pavement. his eyeglasses skidded right past me and fell into the curb. i'll never forget it either. and i just glanced briefly over to arms and legs in a terribly unnatural jumble, i didn't allow my eyes to linger at all. the thud was unreal... and the eyeglasses just sliding across the sidewalk ...

Ice cream. Fuck therapy.

What flavor ice cream?

I didn't see the word therapy in emergency therapy and thought a group of doctors told you to run into the hospital to get help but you were like "nah, I got some ice cream to buy."

Way to go dead cancer guy. Died early and traumatized a 7 year-old.

but i think shit stuck with me.

I think most people who see that shit at 7yr will remember that for their life.

damn dude you really like ice cream.

Just imagine. 1 or 2 second delay, you wouldn't be here today.

Maybe you should have gotten therapy flavored ice cream.

"when im drunk or high" your account name really supports that 'high' part of that sentence

...i think that shit stuck with me.

Uh...a body plummeted to the earth and missed you by a thin margin. If that didn't stick with you, you may want to get checked.

The fact that you insisted on getting your icecream reminds me of when i had my tonsils removed.... I immediately was craving by dogs when i woke up and they actually gave it to me. I ate it too. Creepy right

This is definitely the most disturbing story on this thread.

Wow the door you exited the hospital from was directly below the maternity ward and they were all looking out the window. After, of course, they all told you exactly the reason he jumped too. Wow.

Is your real name George Costanza?

This has been my fear since childhood! Id walk around in the city looking up incase someone was jumping from the tall buildings and going to land on me! So terrifying!

HOLY FUCKIN DOG-SHIT. The same fucking thing happened to me. My brother was born when I was 6y/o, and I was sent out to get him a nice doll or something like that. As I walk to the kiosk, I get a sudden urge to run. I only ran for about 2 metres before hearing the "THUD". The sound of a man dropping on a concrete pavement is to this day the most horrifying thing I've ever heard. There's no splat or something, just a cold, soft, loud thud.

So what are your thoughts on therapy? Do you now feel like you should have had it?

That doesn't need therapy, that is bad ass. You didn't get lucky, you dodged.

A group of doctors and psychiatrists asked me to get emergency therapy but i insisted on getting my ice cream and go home.

This is fucking spectacular.

"No time for mental trauma, there's a choco taco with my name on it over in that bitch"

Wow. What a crazy story. I would probably be scared for life after that. More power to you that you are not a nutcase.

how many windows in the birth ward could he fly past in order for your "mom and a lot of others" to witness it? birth wards are typically one floor of the hospital, and therefore he would only have "flew" past one window of the birth ward.

Has it fucked you up? Legit question. Would you say you have any emptional problems?

My money says it was security system salesmen.....Damn them and their hard sell!

Reminds me of my cousin's German Shepherd refusing to allow "the meter man" into her house. It turned out the utility company did not send anyone.

Thank god for your puppy.

Sounds like a home invasion to me..Maybe even one of your SO's "Friends"...They obviously knew when the perfect time to break in would be...They were either looking to burglarize your home or rape you.

burglars

Your puppy saved you!

[deleted]

Security system wouldn't have actually done you any good. It's mostly for when you aren't home. Mind, they are still useful, especially if installed with a cellular backup.

However, Better yet, buy a shotgun. Nothing says "Fuck you, come get some." than racking the slide and hollering "It's time to put some holes in mother fuckers."

New marketing strategy by the security system business.

holy crap that sent shivers down my spine. likely burglars but still, there's no telling what they would've done to someone had they broken in.

Buy a semi automatic rifle. You can get one for around $150.

That's terrifying!

When I was younger I would often be home alone until very late. I lived in the country so it was awfully creepy at times due to the spacing out of homes mixed with farmland. In order to prevent being robbed or murdered by potential robbers or murderers, I would blare death metal for hours. I thought that death metal made me seem crazy and no one would fuck with me.

That's some bad police response time. Stories like this remind me of More Guns Less Crime by John Lott. He convincingly argues against the conventional wisdom that says "it's safer to not have a gun and just call the police." In some areas, there aren't enough cops to protect everyone. According to the book, women are particularly vulnerable in home invasions and carjackings and they benefit the most from having a gun.

I actually had something sort of like this happen but it was more of a stand-off. I was staying the night at my aunts and she lived in a really bad part of town. She had shotguns and pistols scattered around the house.

I was staying up late watching movies and eating cereal. I'm coming back from the kitchen from dropping a bowl off and I see two dudes attempting to break in. One at the door and one in the window. The curtains for whatever reason were only half closed that night. So all I can see is two guys wearing all black on the front porch. I freak out for a second and sort of lock in place. One is messing with the door handle and lock the other messing with the window. The one in the window slaps the door guy on the arm and the both stop and look at me to see if I see them. First thing I think is protection. I look over at the couch and see a shotgun. I lean over the coffee table and grab it. So now I'm standing there with a shotgun stuck in a staring contest with the robbers. It felt like 5 minutes of standing there but I'm sure it was much shorter.

In hindsight, I now realize they were doing risk / reward assessments in their head. Such as "How good of a shot is this guy?" What's the take from this place? Should we come back with guns?" But in the moment I realize they're not moving. So I pump the shotgun and take a step closer to them. The finally run off and I call the police and wake my aunt. We stayed up all night with guns in our laps. She moved out shortly after thankfully.

you are very lucky. they knew you were there on your own. they were going to hurt you. they know your boyfriend. be careful.

And yet, another reason I am armed.

three words...buy a gun

And this is why I own firearms.

When I read, "My boyfriend works night shift", I thought it was going to be the Hash Slinging Slasher story.

I was going to suggest getting a shotgun but then noticed you spelled "neighbors" with a "u" so it's probably not an option for you.

I spoke to a retired cop once (he became a financial advisor) and he told me alarm systems are bull shit and the only thing they tell the cops is your shit is stolen. I didn't feel very safe after that remark.

They wanted to put their frosting on your cupcakes.

Did dirty mike and the boys have an orgy in the living room?

[deleted]

Jack's next-door neighbor is a guy named Mike. Mike is a member of the local AARP chapter and offers to host a meeting at his house. He says that he'll be a bit late but will leave the front door unlocked. He accidentally gives the wrong house number, or the person he gives it to communicate it to everyone else effs up. Jack and Tom live next door and also leave the front door unlocked (not uncommon in some areas). Everyone realizes something is amiss when not-Mike walks in and looks strangely at them. They clear out before you come back to look at them and go to the right house. Or just home.

Oh shit that stuff has happened to me before....

Different story but they're kinda similar.

I came home after a long day of riding horses and mucking horse shit. All I wanted was a cup of water, a shower, and to go to bed.

I come to the living room with a glass of water, and see a man sitting on the settee. He's in total 70s style clothing-- button-up disco-type shirt, high waisted bell-bottom pants, and loafers with a matching belt. Top that with high-volume hair and a thick mustache, and there he is. Accompanying him is a glass of liquor (I assume) and a heavy smell of cigars and cologne. I greet him, say sorry for interrupting, and go to my sister's room to ask her who the dude in the living room is. She says he's probably my dad's friend and tells me he's been there for the past hour.

About 15 minutes later I hear my parents talking in the living room and they call me to go clean up a mess my dog made, so I ask where the man went and they say "what man?" and I tell them what happened. They thought I was making it up and brushed it off as attention-seeking. My sister testified with me and they still didn't believe me.

Every now and then I catch the smell of cigars or the weird cherry cologne he was wearing, but maybe it's my imagination. That dude was real as fuck though, I thought he came straight from a 70s night at a bar or something. And this was in like 2010.

Musk as in that old person smell?

Ahh this may sound super crazy but when I went to Iceland we had this really chill guide. we got relatively friendly so the convos went from about the land to personal experiences/feelings.... he literally told the EXACT same story. like, to a T. It's scary!!!

That's seriously the coolest story I think I've ever read. But one thing I never get with these type of stories is how come no one says hello to them? If I see a bunch of people I don't know in my house I always say hello if I go past them.

This reminds me of a ghost story I read in a library book as a child…

The ghosts had a society, and two living children were invited to a dinner because they were each the guardian of a ghost; one ghost was a dog whose body was found by the child in an old leather money bag and the other child was caring for a ghost baby. At the dinner, the entity who got the uncooked bean in their meal got a wish… and after listening to all the ghosts tell their stories during the meal, the girl wishes there were no such thing as ghosts- and the entire dinner party disappears.

Does anyone know what story this is, or which book…?? I was creeped out by so many stories in it, but I would love to get my hands on a copy...

Really should've named your friend's dad Jerry

Before craigslist we had classified ads. You invite people to your buddy's house without telling him. Free strippers, free booze, whatever. Even leave a phone number so they can call (you) and make sure it's legit. Leave a couple nice bottles of whiskey and some beer with a note "c'mon in!"

I'm curious what they were talking

I would've given a collective 'NOOOOOOPE'

And jumped out the window and ran far away.

They were waiting for your friend's father and uncle to fall asleep so that the true haunting could begin. They are ghost swingers.

The fuck? That's creepy anyway you slice it.

that happened at my stepsisters house so often that at middle school she was known as ghost girl and couldnt get anyone to have sleepovers

Fuckin' old people. Just wandering into people's houses and stinkin' up the place.

Side note my name is tom and my brothers name is jack. Haha!

Speaking as the type of guy who rarely bullshits anyone. It's fantastically rewarding when you get to actually bullshit someone and they completely believe you. You can say whatever you want.

I suspect bullshit

Happened to my friend's brother's uncle's doctor's wife as well.

Had a similar occurrence with a roommate, except we just both accepted it. We'd find that, if we were downstairs, we'd hear walking on the floor upstairs (but there was no one upstairs). Or, if we were upstairs, we'd hear laughing downstairs.

They were benevolent and shared the space, considerably. Passing in from time to time.

Another experience was at a friend's house. Everyone present left the house and left me alone in the living room... I didn't think much of it, everyone was smoking a cig.

But I couldn't help noticing a forboding shadow passing me, back and forth, from behind.

Friends come back, I ask about. They say, everyone who is alone in the house has the same experience.

It was the man who belonged to the house before he died. Was obviously territorial and wanted it for himself.

These ones feed off fear and you can protect yourself in such cases by understanding how to assert yourself energetically.

Just because a person has passed (from the gross to the less-dense) doesn't necessarily mean that they have a PhD. in it... the mechanics of the metaphysical. Some are just as clueless about it as the average person dwelling on the physical realm, though not all. Some have "unfinished business". Some are just aiding their descendants and waiting to welcome friends/relatives when they pass, to make the transition easier for them. And in less common, but also common cases, they appear as initiators passing on their knowledge. Its also possible, however, for people on this plane to appear "as ghosts" as well; such is the case where a person has "left" their physical body in a dream-state, or when they're close to death. Or in such cases where someone on this plane has the capability of maneuvering their astral body At Will.

Along with a note from Bill Murray that reads, "No one will ever believe you."

Probably a group therapy meeting for elderly people with Alzheimers and dementia. They thought they were in the right place until they saw you two show up.

I'm late on this, but something similar to this happened to me and my step sister when we were really little. She didn't live with us but she would sleep over often. On the nights where I had to sleep alone, I would eventually end up walking to my mom's room because I was scared. I had to cross the living room to get there and some nights there would just be people sitting there. I always described them as looking like stereotypical ghosts, and they were dressed in old fashioned clothing. Anyway, after getting a bit older, I just chalked it up to childhood imagination. But then I was talking to my sister and she told me that she used to walk to my mom's room at night when she slept over because she would get scared after I fell asleep. And she told me that she would see people in the living room, and described them just as I had. It was the first time we'd ever talked about it and I just don't want to believe we were able to imagine the same exact thing. Reading your comment honestly made me feel less alone on that haha

God damn it, my dad's name is Tom and his brother is named Jack.

Then who was phone?

Twist; Jack WAS the ghost.

Probably the EPG, Elderly Prank Guild, they meet twice a week when Frank and Ethel don't have doctors appointments.

Dirty Mike and the boys

Totally obzedat.

Ghosts.. or a bunch of homeless people? That doesn't explain the musk though.. maybe bucks in men suits?

lol you have to admit that he got you.

I gave this device to my boss as a gift once. He went along to a couples outing where they had separate hotel rooms. He'd somehow managed to hide the device near the back of the other couples TV. The next day they were discussing that their room may be haunted due to random giggling, door creaks and the most concerning one involving a man loudly whispering "hey, can you hear me?" After a long troubling sleepless night they were removing their luggage from the room when the husband passed the TV, paused to listen and found the device. They took it well and would Facebook message my boss every now and then, "hey, can you hear me?" Good times.

When I was 7 or 8 my brothers spent a month or two dropping little comments of ghosts in my room casually and then on Halloween one of them snuck into my room and shook my bed (easy-to-shake daybed) like crazy. I ran out of my room screaming and crying to my parents who lectured me about how ghosts weren't real, about how I shouldn't lie, and not to let Halloween stories get to me.

My god damned bastard brothers never confessed to doing it and it took years before I was confident that my house wasn't haunted and my brothers were just mean.

Paybacks a bitch.

http://www.thegreenhead.com/2009/10/thinkgeek-eviltron.php

I have one of those but I haven't used the voice creaking or giggle I just use the annoying little beep. I only use this setting for when they find it and want revenge. I hope they will show mercy.

That is the kind of troll that need some hardcore punitive trolling in return.

Damn he got you so good! At least he told you/asked you about it eventually instead of it just being part of the black hole of disconcerting things in your life.

Kitty Cats can make some incredibly nerve wracking sounds as well. When I was 13 my cat had grown from a kitty and, even though he was neutered, made this sound very early in the morning around 2-3 A.M.. I was so horrified because it sounded like a baby was scream crying some demonic sounds from the room next door.

I continued hearing it early in the morning for a few minutes about once a week for the entire spring and was petrified every night. Until I woke up one morning with kitty standing on my desk looking at me, when he made that sound. I was so relieved....

Edit: this is also another good example of the sound Imaging this and that first video sounds together, when you have no idea that cats can make those sounds.

Next time, just breathe through your mouth. It cuts way down on the ear noise so you can keep breathing but you can hear better.

this is great! Where did he hide it???

best of thread so far

My God, was he trying to give you PTSD?!

I know exactly which device you're talking about my father hid one in my closet. Definitely caused me some confusion for a couple hours.

Someone did this to me and a coworker. They had one that would say "hey" in a creepy whisper. It wasn't as creepy as your story because it was a small office so we found it after 15 minutes.

The guest room? Risky move. If you ask me guest rooms are creepy as fuck!

It's called the Annoy-A-Tron and you can get it from here: http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/b278/

Lol I thought you were schizophrenic.

Your brother almost drove you insane with that prank. I was scared just reading your account.

My bro did a similar thing witha musical saw. It makes the kind of noise you hear like right before an alien lands. Our rooms were right across from each other and when he heard me coming up the stairs he started playing and laughing really deep. I thought he was outside and freaked out for a second.

Also when I was doped up after having my wisdom teeth out he hung one of these posters: http://polishgreatness.blogspot.com/2012/02/ww2-propaganda-war-of-words-part-1.html (sorry for shitty link, on mobile) on his door so it was the first thing I saw when I woke up from the drugs and came out. He heard my squeals of terror from downstairs and started laughing. Little fucker.

Reminds me of the time I got under my bed and called my mom into the room to help me with something. She came in the room and couldn't find me. That's when I grabbed her ankles from under the bed. Hahaha I was 10 years old and that's still the best prank I've ever pulled. I scared her so bad. I got a spanking, but it was worth it!

Wow that was some good read!

I have a alarm clock that has a feature where you can record your own 15 second sounds. I once made a recording of me breathing heavily and lightly saying my roommate's name once at the end of it. I then put in in the mess of my filthy hoarder roommate's room right next to his bed set for 3am. At 3:06 I heard a sort of whimpery scream from his room. I saw my opportunity and came to "check it out." He was cowering on his bed and said he heard something. I remained silent and listened, but pretended not to hear anything. He said it was coming from under his bed. I arrogantly pretended to be the parent who comes and checks for a monster under the bed, then when I got down to look under his bed I said, "What the-" then threw myself under his bed making all sorts of commotion like I was being attacked. He screamed and ran out of the room.

And that is the story of how I woke my downstairs neighbors one time.

Kind of reminds me of when I used to turn all the lights off in the office and be the last one out at work. Couple of times soon as I turned the lights out I would hear this soft coughing or grumbling coming from somewhere in the office.

Freaked me the fuck out, I was like FUCK THIS! And would close the door real fast and run to my car, cause I KNEW no one was in the office. Happened what seemed like every time I was the last one out.

Turns out some fucker at work left (unbeknownst to me) their battery powered ash tray in the office that coughs when you put a cigarette on it.

Well apparently the coughs are activated when the cigarette is placed over the light-sensitive part. Soon as I turned out the lights to go home it was going off.

I want to know where I can get one of those to use myself haha

Much like your story, I woke up once at 3 in the morning to the sound of little children giggling. My window was open and it sounded like it was coming outside.

Unlike you though, I only heard it once, and I don't have a brother :(

You should have punched him. I know I would. A lasting scar of some sort. It's only fair. Anyone who thinks this sort of shit is funny really needs to grow up. But reddit is full of assholes so I am going against the grain here.

Where can one find one of these prank devices?

http://youtu.be/8LOrtVef9mE?t=32s thats the sound if anybody is wondering

re-posting on your thread for visibility> Ok I have one but I know Im way down the list but its something that I have been holding onto for a long time. One of my best friends and I were hanging out at my house in my room, this was back in the day of the "computer room" where you had a separate room for the family computer. Well one night me and my buddy were hanging out and I had gone down the hall to the computer room and my buddy stayed in my room. I had an amoire and the doors locked well together. Well that night as I went to the computer room my friend stayed in my room and all of a sudden the a moire doors flew open together out of the blue… next thing I know he's screaming and goes to run for me in the computer room and the attic door slams open and separates us from each other. We both got quiet and I sat there while he stood there on the other side of the door until he finally reached out and shut the door. He came in and was shaking… I had seen things out of the corner of my eye in this house before that I didn't want to believe but this was the one thing that was irreversible.

Reminds me of that one story about the guy who planted a similar device in his roommate's to get revenge on him because roommate was an asssss.

The Evil-a-tron! I have one;)

so what'd you do to get him back?

also paragraphs plz ;_;

I got about halfway through this story and thought "either this guy is writing fiction, or someone pranced the shut out of him"
I found the ending to be especially satisfying

I'm sorry your brother is such an asshole but I'll sleep better knowing it rather than the alternatives.

Please ask him where to buy one of those things

Eviltron

Where can you buy that sweet device ? (Yup I'm that kind of elder brother)

My dad bought a similar device and put it under my sisters desk, and messes with her from time to time with it. She used to always complain about random noises around the house, so now he has given her some real ones at least

It's when you don't have a brother, or anyone who could make you a prank, that you should get spooked.

TL;DR--Brother pranked you because he's an asshole. FTFY

that creeps you out to this day?

Eviltron 2 I believe.

Hid a couple at work a few years ago

I'd like to buy new ones but think geek doesn't sell them anymore.

As soon as you said it was giggling you hear in horror movies, I assumed someone was pulling a prank.

I had one of those devices, but the thing is, I didn't know what it was. I thought you pressed the button and it made noises. Cool, whatever. Put it on the fridge (since it had a magnet) and forget about it. Awhile later, start hearing the same thing -- little girls giggling. Every couple of hours. This went on for months until I remembered that it was the stupid thing and threw it out.

Eviltron

LOL! this is classic. I know this is a super late time to reply to this story because it was posted so long ago but it reminded me of what my sister used to do to me. One time I was in the bathroom getting a shower and I went to walk back into my room and the tv turned on by itself, then it started switching channels. I obviously screamed and she laughed and came out from under my bed. She did it again a few weeks later but this time she hid in my closet. Siblings are evil!

IM SO GOING TO GET ONE OF THESE

Cocksucker

Basically the same thing happened to me when I was house sitting, but it was a motion sensor peek-a-boo Elmo doll in the living room closet.

"Hehehe! I see yooooouuuu"

Whip a shitty?

A somewhat similar situation happened to me back when I was a teenager.

Back then in the summer we used to sneak out at night and just go wandering around the neighborhood. One night after we all broke up and went our separate ways, I walked alone back to my house. On the way, there was an elementary school property I would normally cut across to get to my street.

I was just crossing through a part in the back where they keep the dumpsters and was fairly poorly lit by only a single sodium vapor lamp which bathed the area in an eerie orange glow, when something made me turn around. I don't remember if it was the general creepy paranoia that I always had during this part of the night, or if I subconsciously heard a noise, but I see a figure silhouetted by the lone light walking behind me at about 40 feet. While my mind is furiously trying to figure out if this is one of my friends fucking with me or a serious threat, the figure starts a dead sprint right in my direction.

I have never run so fast in my life. I suppose it was good that I was then in the best shape of my life, having played middle school sports, and I just kept running until I eventually was sure there was no where behind me, also keeping sure not to lead them directly to my house, which was actually only half a mile away.

I am still sometimes curious as to who that was or what their intentions were, but definitely not at the risk of sticking around to find out.

His wife left him for the paperboy. The one whose route you just took over. She finally broke the news to him over dinner the night before.

In rage he waited.

In rage he watched.

In rage he gave chase.

Then what happened?

You ran? What about your car ?

He's pissed that you're whipping shitties near his property man!

I had never heard the term "Whip a shitty" before

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Whipping+a+Shitty

i dub thee "the shitty whipper"

And what happened after...

Why were you out delivering newspapers that late? I can't think of delivering newspapers at 2 in the morning.

did YOU KILL HIM AND MAKE UP THIS ALIBI?!

I hope I'm not stirring up any bad memories for you, but the only thing creepier than imagining this from your perspective is imagining it from his. Like what the hell kind of life leads you to that point?

why were you delivering papers at night?

I've never heard anyone other than me and my friends use the phrase "whip a shitty." Needless to say, I like your style, man.

You got back in your car, right? Did you report it?

Been scanning this thread, and this is the creepiest one I've read yet!

This is scariest.

Fellow paper delivery guy at one point. Boy do I have some stories.

FTFY - I had never RUN

Oh my god. This is the worst one in this thread to me. He was going to take you out before he took himself out.

Maybe he was running in fear and someone was after him?

Wat da fuck

Fuck dude..

Ran? What about the car? What happened?

You can't just end there story there, localgoat.

I think serial killers are why I have an innate mistrust of attractive, socially acclimated people.

My cousin dated him in highschool. She's now a criminal psychologist.

From Toronto, upvoted this comment. If you lived anywhere in Canada, you'd understand how creepy this comment is. It's the Canadian equivalent of saying you sat next to Charles Manson once.

My mom swears she saw Bernardo at a dance party once, when she went to Saint Caterine's with a boyfriend. I don't really believe her, but still…creepy.

Dear god that wikipedia photo, fucking chilling eyes.

Fuuuuuck

there is a movie called karla about this guy and it's fucking awful. laura prepon and misha collins are the stars and they were both severely traumatized by the director and hate to talk about the movie. i watched it despite the warnings and it was a terribly made movie made even worse by the backstory.

What a creep. People like him make me physically sick to my stomach. I am so glad your aunt wasn't hurt.

I watched some sort of documentary on that guy. Scary shit

Jesus. Was she missing a wallet or anything out of her purse?

It sounds insanely crazy that someone would rob your aunt while walking down a street with another person on it, whom is willing to approach a gunpoint situation for a total stranger, only to have the gunman back off and her never see either of them again, unless he was in on it.

Also how would someone walking toward her see that there was a gun pressed against her back?
