Ann: ".....Bob's dead. They found out he was a member of the Roast Busters."

I feel like you and I are one in our undying, unbounded love for this 6'2" British pixie stick of deliciousness. Let us join internet hands and bow our heads together.

OKAY I am not saying this to be a total buzzkill, but this was a campfire story that went around my summer camp every year.

My grandpa was a real jokester, and often played pranks for amusement and because he knew it made our family laugh. It was loving, never malicious.
After he passed away, weird things started happening to my grandmas house. The TV would flick on and off on it's own accord, even if no one was near the remote. The lights…

From what I understand, that's about as affectionate as he ever got when he was alive. Love letters are relative, I guess.

Have been waiting for this thread! It is the reason I made an account, two years ago. I read almost all the stories last year. My favorites were the one with the new mom, living in a new house that had just been built. I think it took place in Texas? The one with Donald Duck in the forest and the one where the woman…

I love this thread. The 'just try to smile' one and the winner last year were great.
True story - My mom grew up in the country - off the paved road, turn left at the mountain, middle of nowhere in Arkansas country. When she was about 8 and one of my uncles was 10, her mother decided to bake one evening. She realized…

I'm going to preface this by saying that I've been able to see, hear, and feel things since I was a small child. It stopped being weird for me years ago, and it's been happening less and less the older I get.

In my apartment I live with at least 2 ghosts. One is a victorian woman that lived in the structure that used…

I worked as a nurse in a little rural hospital in the ER. We had a rough night, with two helicoptor transfers. I got off at 3 am. I walked out to get in my car and saw a brilliant light in the sky. I thought, "WTF? It's another helicoptor! No, wait, I would KNOW if we had another transfer." So, I started flashing…

Ugh, if he's gonna rip off Marvin Gaye, can't his dad rip off Senior?

This is spooky, rather than blood-curdlingly terrifying. It happened about ten years or so ago, maybe a bit longer. My family has been on the service crew of a Scout campsite outside London for many years, so we grew up around this site and got to know it pretty well. The campsite backs onto Biggin Hill Airport,…

When we first moved to our house in the suburbs after living in a city for the first 7 years of my life, I was so excited. We had a small front yard, a larger backyard, a swing set left over from the previous family, and I had my own room! At laaaast!

My grandmother, Granny we called her, was an amazing woman. She raised 11 children and had 20-something grandchildren and two great grandchildren. She was incredibly loved by everyone, including me. We had a very close relationship and spoke on the phone often. I’d visit her at her Russian River home and eventually…

What in God's name is that gif from?

When I was 13, my grandfather died of cancer. It was my first experience with death, and watching his slow decline was brutal. After he died, I was ashamed of how relieved I felt that his suffering (and consequently, all our suffering as we stood by helpless) was now over. The last time I saw him, he was combative and…

I know him. He comes out of my closet to play sometimes at night.

Oh, go step on lego, you sour old bat.

MOTHER MAY I SLEEP WITH DANGER IS REALLY IMPORTANT TO ME.

Ugh. Childbirth honestly scares the crap out of me.

My company was in the Trade Center, and we lost about 350 colleagues on September 11th, including most of the senior management of the IT Department. One of the only survivors was a complete and total douchebag.
