I always enjoyed the dark crystal / full house crossover episodes,

I’ve never commented on this platform before, but seeing this post the day after this weird thing happened seemed like too much of a coincidence. I’m commenting hoping one of you might have a logical explanation for what happened. Something that makes sense and lets me forget.

Ok, here goes. Writing this out makes me want to barf. 

True story. When I was eight years old, I got my first bus card and started taking the city bus home from elementary school. My parents had transferred me into a school far from home, so there were no other kids from my school in my neighborhood. My bus stop was the end of the line, on a quiet intersection a few

Not scary, but still…

For a few years in the mid-90s I was studying to be an archaeologist and spent a few summers in the field doing excavations. Whenever I would bring this up in later years, people would occasionally ask if I had any cool Indiana Jones encounters. I’d laugh, and they’d laugh, and we’d move on to some other topic. And

So I moved around a lot when I grew up, but there was one house in particular that was very very much haunted.

This happened to me about ten years ago while I was attending college at West Virginia University. At the time, I was really into backcountry camping, which for reasons that will become obvious, I am not into anymore. One of the benefits (actually probably the only benefit) of attending college in West Virginia was

I’m going to post a second story. I saw my dad.

This is a story my grandmother told me when I was a kid —

I FINALLY HAVE SOMETHING TO ADD!!

Ok, first time commenting, so I’m sure I’ll be buried in the grays.... but, here goes.

I have a story, but it’s not mine. It comes from my mom who heard it from her older sister when she was young. I have no idea if it is true. It could just be a story made up by a teenager trying to spook her younger sister. There’s one detail of the story that does ring true though, and that’s the location: Purple

Right before I turned 21 I moved to a new city, transferred colleges, and got an apartment by myself. I picked a place out on the third story of a rambling old Victorian mansion - a modest studio with white metal cabinets from the 1950's and a rusted fire escape which always gave me bad feelings. It was metal, and

I have a story.
