Yes, it's irritating!

Wow. I generally tried to keep up with the discussion thread on a daily basis, so I’d read all of these except the creepy uncle one. It wasn’t as scary as it was riveting and sentimental in a spooky sort of way.

I second that! I hate trying to read all of the stories in the comments section every year -- hundreds of stories, thousands of replies. Both my phone and my computer browser won’t let me bookmark where I am in the comments to pick up where I left off reading.

Old Gray Thing creeped me out big time. Actual goose bumps reading it.

So not even death can spare us from unpleasant men :(

seriously? You stalk me, liking a dozen things, and now don’t recognize a classic scene from a cult movie, or it’s star?

Ghostbusters, I think

I was in an abusive relationship. It was a long time before the abuse surf5, and I  was shocked when it did. I never saw it coming. I had never been exposed to anything like that. I don't want to be mean or step into a situation I don't really know, and I thought about this a while before posting. This will almost…

I’ve lived in a very rustic Victorian cottage in Upstate New York for about 20 years. How rustic? The first floor has those old wide wood planks, and since there is no sub-floor, I can see light between the cracks when the lights are on in the basement. It was built in the 1850's, and then in the 1880's, a large fancy…

My partner and I just moved out of an apartment that had some activity -we moved into it after a full renovation, but it had been vacant for a few months. Within the first week we noticed things here and there but attributed it to moving into a new place and learning to adapt to certain noises, as you do when you rent…

Very frequent lurker, first time poster here! I hope this makes it out of the greys.

This happened to me 15 years ago while backpacking in Peru with a friend. There were a lot of backpackers in the region, and we quickly discovered a lot of them came with the sole intention of doing lots of drugs. We were both straight edge at the time so we generally avoided befriending these types. I think they…

I’m sure this doesn’t count but:

In the fall of 2018 I moved to live with a retired woman in Southern California, who happened to have expert Tarot card reading abilities and a serious witchy sense to her. A couple days after moving in, I asked my friend/roommate/landlady about some percieved spiritual presences in the house, and she confirmed them.  …

Two creepy moments to share:

This isn’t award-winning creepy or anything, but I know all you interwebs spine-tingle addicts will appreciate this: I just found out a few weeks ago that one of my neighbors, a gentle Santa-Clausy type, was propositioned by a man at a rest stop in Indiana back in the ’70s. My neighbor, having a preference for the…

I used to live in Scotland with my ex fiance. I met him about six months after his mother had passed away, and his father had died of a heart attack when he was a teenager, and he was an only child. So at the time, we lived in his family home. He had let his apartment in Glasgow go and moved back there for the time…

About fifteen years ago I worked as a student scene shop supervisor for my college’s Theater program. One weekend myself and all of my house-mates, who were also theater kids, were involved in a fundraiser for a local animal shelter—building winterized dog houses to be raffled off. We realized we were short some of…

My grandfather had always been a fractious and difficult man. By all accounts when his four children were younger he was an abusive drunk and gambler who had harried his wife into an early grave. But years had passed and as he got older and the grandchildren started to arrive he got softer and could at times pass for…

Welp. Settling on in at my desk, space heater ON, coffee POURED. LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
