Nothing Pope Francis has done is cooler than having Patti Fucking Smith play the Vatican Christmas Concert.

Some of my many many many awful stories that come to mind ...

Delivering subs and having a frat boy try to grope me and his roommate not just stiff me but actually short me and when I said something he started pelting me with change...

Another time at a different job at a different non-mob pizza/sit down Italian place…

the goat man story has kept me up all week :( i keep looking at my floor like some crazy lit up jesus thing is going to be there. i don't know what i read these stories but i.can't.stop.

You're wonderful, sincerely.

This is going to be incredibly long and buried in the depths of the grays, but I'll tell it anyway.

The two stories I have to tell are NOT supernatural. However they absolutely terrified my 31 year old bones. So as not to bore, I'll post one at a time. Apologies in advance if you find it boring but that day I saw the inhumanity of nature in the form of my own intended destruction.

When I was 18, I lived with my (now ex) boyfriend in a basement apartment in a town in Wyoming. It was not a happy time in my life for various reasons (boyfriend was abusive, I was pregnant with his child) but it also didn't help that the apartment was creepy as shit. Even for a basement apartment, it was unusually…

About 10 years ago, my husband and I were doing the living apart during the week, seeing each other on the weekends thing as he had moved to Atlanta to start a new job and I was about 2 hours away in S.C. getting the house ready to sell and wrapping up my job while looking for work in Atlanta. So every other weekend,…

This elementary school sound really cool. Do you have any pics of it? What's it called to I can look it up on google maps?

Growing up, when my mother wanted the final word in discussions with my dad she'd say 'remember I saved your life.' Finally I asked her how she'd saved him. CPR? Heimlich? I wouldn't have believed the story coming from anybody else, but she is one of the most practical, honest people I know so I gotta go with it....

When I was born, my parents moved us into a house in a very old town in Virginia, known for some of its hauntings, although our house was relatively new. As a baby, I was always staring off and waving to things in the distance, to a point where my parents took me to a doctor to make sure nothing was neurologically…

I have some great ghost stories, all of which involve my friend Sarah. Now, what you have to understand about Sarah, right off the bat, is she was never the brightest girl in the world. No kidding, until she was 16 she thought Alaska was an island next to Hawaii (because of how maps of the continental US are drawn).…

I'm home alone right now and extremely effing scared from reading too many of these stories, so I'm going to post my own as a sort of palate cleanser. It isn't frightening, thank god, but it remains one of the most surpassingly strange things I've ever experienced.

I've a similar story to your dad. Going to try and not out myself/town but it may be squinky.

I got this. When i was about 14, i had a nightmare one night about a young ghost girl. In the dream, the ghost came up to my friend and i while we played in our yard and started screaming "help me help me" over and over. I woke up immediately and noticed that I was covered in sweat so bad I literally felt like I was…

I have about five true "ghost" stories, and all of them suck. No flaming eyeballs, no rolling heads, no faceless children jumping out from the storage closet under the stairs. This one is a two-parter, and the parts are probably only as related as mud and water:

My grandfather (Papaw) died in a car accident when I was still an infant. Naturally, my mother - always a Daddy's girl - tried to insure that I had some idea and concept of him growing up. We had dozens of photos of Papaw and my grandmother around our home, and I spent my very early childhood with a solid idea of what…

So I'm currently pregnant and I have these very very vivid dreams, doctor says hormones. So one of these nights I dreamt I was wondering about my house and in come my husband, his mother and sister, and this little old lady. They all look a bit strange, younger (and thiner, which was what struck me). As I look around,…

Not a ghost, but this happened to me a few weeks ago and I am still upset and scared. I work in a pretty busy building but everyone comes and goes around the same time. My hours are a little later so I leave about an hour after everyone else when there are only a few other people in the building. I grabbed the…
