Alright, fellow fear fiends—let’s crack open the vault.

I want to hear the real stuff. The thing that still makes your stomach drop when you think about it. Whether it was a one-time unexplainable event or something that kept happening until you moved, I’m here for all of it. Paranormal, true crime close calls, doppelgängers, haunted objects, glitch-in-the-matrix weirdness—I want to read it under a blanket at 1 a.m. with all the lights on.

So…

What happened to you that made you stop and think:

“This shouldn’t be happening.”

Or worse:

“Something’s here, and it knows I know.”

Bonus points if your story has no logical explanation. Let’s get weird.

Does anyone has some good scary stories, creepypastas, videos, photos, analog horrors just anything that will scare me so much i will pee my pants. Iam bored and i don't want to sleep, just anything that is very scary and it will haunt me forever, that's it good night/day :3

I remember a few years back, my cousin and I found a ritual in our basement that wasn’t there before. I remember being obsessed with figuring out what any of it meant. Eventually, I forgot about it until my older sister brought it up. I’m still very curious about what the writing in the book says.

Hello I got this app to share the weird things that have been going on this past month. So I got a random text from a stranger one day, they were pretty much asking me if I knew their friend, and I responded by saying no. Since this was the first time that this happened I didn’t think anything of it. A few days go by and I’m sitting watching tv, and I get another text from the same person asking “do you know my friend”, I was confused, maybe they were just asking and forgot that they already asked, so I shrugged it off. The next day I get the same message from another number, and it felt weird because someone was already asking me the same question, I tried to ignore it, but it was until the next day that something else happened. The next day the first number (let’s call them man A) texted me again saying, “did you get my text?” I responded by saying yes and that I ignored them, and then they responded “BITCH!”, I didn’t know how to react and I wasn’t sure if this was some kind of act of cyber bullying, I wasn’t sure since I never was. I responded to man A by asking “who is this” to which they responded “it’s better if you don’t know” I blocked the number (like any average person would do) because they were acting weird. In about an hour or so the second number (let’s call him man B) texts me and says, “block me again and I swear to god you will regret it”. Much to my amazement I couldn’t belief that both numbers were the same person. I blocked the number of Man B, and I reassured myself that maybe it was some sort of a troll. A week passes by and I again get a text from a number I have never seen. The text read “Miss me?”. I knew it had to be the same person, I consulted them by saying, “leave me the fuck alone you horrid fuck”. And after that message, everything had turning tables. Days went by where I noticed things were being moved around and missing, and I was sure I wasn’t messing with them, but there was nothing to do, I felt alone and I was certain the house was empty. Two weeks after I sent the message, one night I was about to go to sleep when I heard something drop or slam (I don’t know it just sounded out of place) when I went to check, there were things all over the ground, some Cabernets were open and my refrigerator door was open with food that looked as if someone had taken them out. I called the police without hesitation. But hey we’re not much help, they told me that there was nothing to do in situations like these without evidence of someone or something, and a restraining order was the last thing I would want. I asked a friend of mine if I could stay at his place for a few days until I was ready to go back to my place, they let me stay at their place and after a few days I felt more comfortable to return. During the time period I was at my friends, I had not gone back to my house, before I left I packed a couple stuff and headed out. But when I returned everything was gone. EVERYTHING. It looked as if I had returned to a open house, it looked exactly like an open house. I was gone for 4 days and I came back to this. I called the cops and there once again was nothing, they didn’t belief me, they told me that I had to go back to my real home or they would arrest me for filing false complaints. It was just after the day I went back to my house when I got another text message that said “I hope you regret it ;)”. I knew it had to be the person texting me, it just had to. I replied and replied back to them “who are you” “what do you want”. But they never replied, and so I blocked their number. PLEASE HELP ME, It’s been a couple days since anything has happened, I can’t go back to my house, I currently have a job, and I’m staying at my friends house, I have no idea what to do.

In the serene town of Westfield, New Jersey, a family's dream of living in their ideal home quickly turned into a nightmare. After purchasing a sprawling six-bedroom house for $1.3 million, the new owners encountered a horrifying situation that forced them to flee their new residence, leaving the local community deeply unsettled.

The nightmare began shortly after the family moved into their new home, when they started receiving a series of menacing letters from an individual identifying themselves only as "The Watcher." According to the letters, the home had been under the watchful eye of the sender's family for decades. The anonymous author chillingly claimed to have been "put in charge of watching and waiting for its second coming."

The letters grew increasingly disturbing, with "The Watcher" making ominous references to the family's children. One letter posed the eerie question, "Have they found out what's in the walls yet?" Another expressed a sinister pleasure in getting to know the family: "I am pleased to know your names now, and the name of the young blood you have brought to me."

Alarmed and fearing for their safety, the family decided to leave the house, unable to stay in a place that had become the source of such terror. The situation was serious enough to warrant a response from Westfield's mayor, Andy Skibitsky, who discussed the case during a Town Council meeting. He reported that the police had conducted an exhaustive investigation, but no charges had been filed due to the nature of the threats, which fell under New Jersey law as a disorderly person's crime.

The unsettling incident has left many questions unanswered. With the family out of the home and the identity of "The Watcher" still unknown, the community remains on edge, hoping for new information that could lead to resolving this disturbing mystery. The case not only highlights the vulnerability of privacy in a small town but also the deep-seated fears that can be triggered by an unseen and unknown threat lurking in the shadows of one's own home.

Danielle Harkins, a 35-year-old schoolteacher near St. Petersburg, Florida, found herself at the center of a chilling and bizarre story that shocked the community. In 2012, Harkins was arrested under disturbing circumstances involving her former students and a series of strange, ritualistic activities.

The case unfolded when authorities learned that Harkins had gathered a group of her former middle school students near a local pier to perform what was described as a ritual to "release their demons." The details of the event are unsettling: Harkins reportedly instructed the teenagers to cut themselves to let out the evil spirits and then proceeded to use a lighter to heat a small key, which she then used to cauterize the wounds, supposedly to prevent the demons from returning.

As the situation escalated, one of the teens sent a text message to a friend, who then alerted their parent. This eventually led to police involvement. When questioned, the students revealed that Harkins had been growing increasingly obsessed with demonic possession and spiritual cleansing, leading her to convince the youths that they were possessed and needed to be purified.

The community was left reeling by the revelations, struggling to reconcile the trusted figure of a schoolteacher with the bizarre and harmful actions she had perpetrated. Harkins was charged with child abuse, highlighting the gravity of her actions. The case serves as a stark reminder of the powerful influence educators hold and the potential consequences when that power is misused in the pursuit of misguided beliefs.
