Animals can be the worrrrst. I once dog-sat for my parents when they went out of town, leaving me alone in their house with their terror of a dog. Belle was an American Eskimo Spitz that had clearly been abused by her past owner - poor thing had anxiety and fear issues out the wazoo, if you put a leash on her she…

This is a sweet, not scary ghost story, and it’s not exactly a ghost story either, but I love telling it. When I tell it in person, I get choked up.
In my dad’s culture, after a person dies, we don’t say their name again, and we don’t pass down names. If we have to say the name of a dead person, we add on an honorific…

For a while we had a night vision IP camera in the twins’ room so we could check on them with our phones/laptops. One time I pulled up the feed and both of them were just staring straight at the camera. EVERYTHING looks creepier in night vision.

Based on information I’ve gleaned from reddit (sorry) and an interview that Amy did recently, supposedly Margarita and Michael as well as many of the other designers had all complained to the producers about the cheating, but the producers didn’t do anything so that they’d have a more dramatic runway - which they got.…

I have a baby and he always smiles at random shit over my shoulder and sometimes I wonder...

ENHANCE!

I live in New Zealand and my neighbor has sheep that say “meh” like they’re constantly underwhelmed by everything.

And here’s one dressed like a banana

Nope. Nope nope NOPE. Memorize the location as best you can, drive to a safe public area and call 911. Where I live this “prank” of pretending to be injured or hit by a car is used to rob and kidnap people.

Back in high school I stayed up late, reading Pet Semetary in bed. I was very proud of myself for reading a scary book at night without freaking out. I finished it up and shut off my light.

Around five years ago, I was a TA for an undergraduate literature course that had 300 students; there were two TAs and our job was mostly to do grading (sigh) and hand out exams and set up PowerPoints and stuff of that nature. Basically, assist the professor in all manner of tedium while she lectured. Due to a…

I used to raise sheep, and I can completely see that.

Listen, the weirdest single thing about sheep and goats is that like, if I was going to mimic a dog barking, you would be like, “Yes, that is absolutely a person pretending to be a dog,” even if I was doing a really good job sounding like a dog. But a sheep or a goat sound is indistinguishable from a person pretending…

I had a few scary encounters with Japanese men who were likely pretty innocent but had no sense of how creepy they were coming off, but this sounds really creepy. I wonder if he’s repeating the story of the odd foreign woman who kept demanding a toilet...

Dude, helpful ghosts can be incredibly nice. The ghost in our house was a dick to me throughout my childhood (I posted about it last year, but I would have to dig through last year’s entries to find my story), but after my father died when I was ten and my mother and her new husband got really, really abusive, that…

As someone who worked in Japan as an ALT, OH MY GOD but also PLEASE GIVE ME A TOILET

This story isn’t supernatural but it’s 100% true and probably the closest I’ve (knowingly) come to being in serious trouble.

Lol animals are the worst, they will fuck with you, no joke.

I don’t know how the cat did it, but that cat was totally fucking with you.

When I was 18, I drove home late one night and parked the car in the driveway. I went inside the house and about 20 minutes later, looked out the window and noticed the interior light was still on in the car. I thought it was odd because I definitely remember slamming the car door shut, but thought perhaps another…
