Creepy stories from real life. The scariest stories

Real life is not only bright and pleasant, it is also scary and creepy, mysterious and unpredictable...

"Was it or not?" - real life story

I would never have believed in something like this if I myself had not encountered this “similar” ....

I was returning from the kitchen and heard my mother screaming loudly in her sleep. So loud that we comforted her with our whole family. In the morning they asked me to tell a dream - my mother said that she was not ready.

We waited for some time to pass. I returned to the conversation. Mom didn't "resist" this time.

From her I heard this: “I was lying on the couch. Dad slept next to me. He suddenly woke up and said that he was very cold. I went to your room to ask you to close the window (you have a habit of keeping it open). I opened the door and saw that the closet was completely covered with thick cobwebs. I screamed, turned around to go back .... And I felt like I was healing. It was only then that I realized that it was a dream. When I flew into the room, I became even more scared. On the edge of the sofa, next to your dad, sat your grandmother. Although she died many years ago, she appeared young to me. I always dreamed that she dreamed of me. But at that moment I was not happy with our meeting. Grandmother sat silently. And I screamed that I did not want to die yet. She flew up to dad from the other side and lay down. When I woke up, I could not understand for a long time whether it was a dream at all. Dad confirmed that he was cold! For a long time I was afraid to fall asleep. And at night I don’t go into the room until I wash myself with holy water.”

I still get goosebumps all over my body when I remember this mother's story. Maybe grandma got bored and wants us to visit her at the cemetery?.. Ah, if it weren’t for the thousands of kilometers that separate us, I would go to her every week!

“Don’t go walking around the cemetery at night!”

Oh, and it was a long time ago! I have just - just entered the university .... The guy called me and asked if I would like to go for a walk? Of course, I answered that I want to! But there was a question about something else: where to take a walk if you are tired of all the places? We went through and listed everything that was possible. And then I joked: “Let’s go to the cemetery and stagger ?!”. I laughed, and in response I heard a serious voice that agreed. It was impossible to refuse, because I did not want to show my cowardice.

Mishka picked me up at eight in the evening. We drank coffee, watched a movie and took a shower together. When it was time to get ready, Misha told me to dress in something black or dark blue. I didn't care, to be honest, what I would wear. The main thing is to survive the “romantic walk”. It seemed to me that I would definitely not survive it!

We have gathered. They left the house. Misha got behind the wheel, even though I had a license for a long time. We were there in fifteen minutes. I hesitated for a long time, did not get out of the car. My love helped me! He held out his hand like a gentleman. If not for his gentlemanly gesture, then I would have stayed in the cabin.

Came out. He took my hand. There was a chill everywhere. The cold "went" from his hand. My heart trembled as if from cold. My intuition told me (very insistently) that we should not go anywhere. But my "second half" did not believe in intuition and in its existence.

We walked somewhere, past the graves, were silent. When I got really scared, I offered to return. But there was no answer. I looked towards Mishka. And I saw that he was all transparent, like Casper from a famous old movie. The light of the moon seemed to completely pierce his body. I wanted to scream, but I couldn't. The lump in my throat prevented me from doing so. I pulled my hand out of his. But I saw that everything with his body was in order, that he had become the same. But I couldn't imagine it! I clearly saw that the body of the beloved was covered with "transparency".

I can't say exactly how much time passed, but we went home. I was just happy that the car started right away. I just know what happens in films and series of the "creepy" genre!

I got so cold that I asked Mikhail to turn on the stove. Summer, can you imagine? I don't represent myself... We drove off. And when the cemetery is over.... I saw again how for a moment Misha became invisible and transparent!

After a few seconds, he again became normal and familiar. He turned to me (I was sitting in the back seat) and said that we would go the other way. I was surprised. After all, there were very few cars in the city! One or two, maybe! But I did not persuade him to go the same route. I was glad that our walk was over. My heart was pounding somehow. I chalked it up to emotions. We drove faster and faster. I asked to slow down, but Mishka said that he really wanted to go home. At the last turn, a truck ran into us.

I woke up in the hospital. I don't know how long I lay there. The worst thing is that Mishenka died! And my intuition warned me! She gave me a sign! But what could I do with such a stubborn as Misha?!

He was buried in that Sami cemetery…. I did not go to the funeral, as my condition left much to be desired.

Since then, I haven't dated anyone. It seems to me that I am cursed by someone and my curse is spreading.

Continuation of scary stories

"Scary secrets of a small house"

300 miles from home... It was there that the inheritance in the form of a small house stood and waited for me. I've been meaning to look at it for a long time. Yes, there was no time. And so I found some time and arrived at the place. It so happened that I arrived in the evening. Opened the door. The castle jammed as if it did not want to let me into the house. But I still got through the lock. Went in to the sound of a creak. It was creepy, but I got over it. Five hundred times I regretted that I went alone - alone.

I did not like the setting, because everything was covered in dust, dirt and cobwebs. It's good that water was brought into the house. I quickly found a rag and began to put things in order.

After ten minutes of my stay in the house, I heard some kind of noise (very similar to a groan). She turned her head to the window - saw the curtains shaking. Moonlight burned through my eyes. I again saw how the curtains “flickered”. A mouse ran across the floor. She scared me too. I was scared, but I continued cleaning. Under the table, I found a yellowed note. In it was written this: “Get out of here! This is not your territory, but the territory of the dead! I sold this house and never came close to it again. I do not want to remember all this horror.

After my father died, I didn't dream about three or four years. During his lifetime, we often quarreled, he liked to drink and was very violent. On such days, the whole family got it.

To tell the truth, when he died, I didn’t really grieve, I thought that at least now my mother would live in peace. She, despite the insults, often remembered him. And on parental Saturday, my mother asked me to go to church to light a candle for the repose of my father and take a memorial service. I reluctantly agreed. I overslept in the morning, and then I decided that I would not go, it would be enough that my mother often does this. And went back to sleep.

I already wrote a story about my cat here, and I want to tell another one.

My paternal grandfather from his business trip to the virgin lands brought a Siberian three-haired Murlichka, a mousetrap of such beauty and intelligence that neighbors lined up for kittens.

When my parents got married and I was born, the cat didn't pay any attention to me at first. At the age of 2 months, I began to scream a lot, ate poorly and did not gain weight. Murlichka literally began to break into my bed, lay down next to me and tried to arrange her head on my neck. If she was kicked out of the house, the cat climbed up to me through the window and next to her I calmed down a little. I don’t know whose advice my father’s mother listened to, but my grandmother decided that the cat should be thrown away. Grandfather obediently took Murlichka to the dacha.

I have been reading the site for a long time, I will write separately somehow, under what circumstances I found it, and fell in love with it very much. There were also mystical events in my life. I want to describe one summer night, I remember it very much.

It was back in 2003, I lived with my parents then, my bedroom faces the street, where the sun stands in the afternoon, then there was no air conditioning, and the heat was like in a steam room. I had to go to work in the morning, a responsible meeting and I had to speak, I decided to go to bed early, but I couldn’t fall asleep, neither the wet sheet nor the fan helped. My head ached from the fan, I turned it off and wandered half the night to the kitchen, then to the balcony and already lay down in a state of half sleep, my body was tired, but my brain did not want to turn off.

The story of the found money brought back memories of my discovery. Once on the bank of the river I found a beautiful ring with a ruby. She picked it up and could no longer part with it, although she understood that with such things one could bring misfortune or even death into the house. Usually damage is done to them, but I thought that it could be lost.

I brought it home and showed it to my mom. To my surprise, she did not scold me, but said that it should be put on a silver chain or silk cord, which closes the negative on itself, and hung in her room. The ring, therefore, will give a positive and bring good luck, especially since the red stone is the color of good luck.

My late grandmother also told me that the money found would not bring wealth. She especially forbade picking up coins on the road. But one day I simply ignored her prohibition, deciding that someone just lost the money and nothing would happen if I took it for myself.

Early in the morning I was going to work and saw scattered banknotes at the crossroads of paths. At first I wanted to pass by, but could not resist and picked it up, deciding that they would be picked up anyway, so why not me. It was just that money was tight, but here is such a find.

The whole day at work I felt bad, regret about the money taken was replaced by joy that this money would be enough for me for a whole week. Then a wave of shame and fear rolled over again, I already wanted to throw it away, but then the thought came that I didn’t steal them, but just found them, and it’s unlikely that the person who lost them would return for them. To calm down, in the evening I spent them all on groceries.

This body of water was formerly used as a fire station while the base was in operation. But in the 90s, the base was closed, the fence was broken, everything of value was taken out, leaving devastation and ruins. And they found a “worthy” use for the reservoir, because our people are very talented and creative, so someone realized that it was expensive to take out sewage from the toilet in a sewage truck, and dumped it all into a reservoir. And as often happens, if one does something nasty, others immediately pick it up, in general, through the efforts of people, this pit turned into a sump, with a terrible stench and a bunch of flies nearby.

At the moment, this outrage has been stopped, the foundation pit is buried and an industrial building has appeared in its place, but in those days people tried to bypass that place, fortunately there were no residential buildings nearby.

I had a strange experience in my life. I went shopping on the weekend. I had already begun to go down the subway, when a friend called and said that she had come to me, and that she urgently needed to see me.

I didn't want to go back and ruin my plans, but I had to. Annoyed at my friend, who could not warn me in advance about my arrival, I went up to my house and only when I entered the entrance, I remembered that I had forgotten the kettle on the stove, since the smell of burning was heard even downstairs.

At the very beginning of the 90s, trouble happened to my grandfather. He worked on a bulldozer at a large construction site. There was an accident and his bulldozer overturned. Caterpillars (they weigh several tons) crushed the cabin. Other workers managed to save grandfather: they pulled him out of the cab and took him to the hospital. At the same time, the doctors were surprised for a long time: “How did you even bring him alive?”

The condition was the most difficult, you can imagine: fractures, a huge loss of blood. He lay in intensive care for a long time, his condition remained serious, and later problems with his kidneys began. Toxicization of the body began, swelling and grandfather became worse.

My grandmother spent almost all this time in the hospital, she was on duty at the intensive care unit, she also spent the night there, under the door. Grandpa's condition became critical. The doctors said, they say, everything, the heart can not cope. If the kidneys don't work soon...

Real mysticism from real life - completely mystical stories ...

“As happens in some films…. We moved from a new house to a very old one. We just felt so comfortable, for some reason. Mom found a photo of the house on the Internet and immediately “fell in love” with it.

We moved there. We began to get used to and look around .... Once, when we had already started planning a housewarming party, I was terribly shocked. Now I'll tell you why. I went out on the porch in the evening to look at the stars. Ten minutes later, I heard some strange noise (as if someone was moving dishes from one place to another). I came back to look at it. When she came to the kitchen door, she saw something rich white slip out of its doors. I was scared of course, but I never realized what it was.

Several days have passed. We were expecting guests from afar. They were going to spend the night with us and we made a small rearrangement in the room (so that people would be more comfortable and comfortable with us).

The guests have arrived. I was calm, because nothing supernatural happened anymore. But! The guests told me something completely different. They stayed overnight in the same room (in the same one in which we specifically rearranged). Uncle said the bed was shaking and rocking under him. The second uncle assured that the slippers themselves under the bed "rearranged". And my aunt said that she saw a dark shadow sitting on the windowsill.

The guests have left. They hinted that they would never return. However, our family is not going to leave here. No one (except me) believed in these "fairy tales". Maybe it's for the best."

The story of three dreams

“I had an interesting dream. More precisely…. Some. But I decided not to “climb” into the dream book in order to accumulate my dreams even more.

The first dream was that a friend said: "I'm pregnant." I didn't call this friend for three months. We didn't see each other even more. The second dream was also pleasant. I won the loto. What have I done? The result of dreams was not long in coming ...

I called a friend and she said that her father-in-law had died. This means that pregnancy in a dream "gives birth" to death. And my second dream came true: I won fifty dollars in the lotto.

Mystic cat or real fiction

“My husband and I live in the apartment of my grandmother, who died seven years ago. Until the moment we moved here, this apartment was rented out to six different tenants. We did some renovations, but not completely. In short, we settled there .... And I started to find strange things in the rooms. Either some scattered pins, or fragments (completely incomprehensible to me). Grandma started to dream. In the evenings I saw her in several mirrors.

A friend advised urgently to get a black kitten. We did it immediately. The kitten avoided mirrors. And in the evening, when I passed them, he jumped on my shoulder and began to hiss intimidatingly, casting a glance at the reflection in the mirror. And the kitten does not suit her husband at all. I don't know what it's for. I do not know why. But with a kitten, we are somehow calmer. ”

mystical shell

“My boyfriend died. Died while riding his motorcycle! I don't know how I got through it. And I don't know if I survived. I loved him very much. With such force that I went crazy with love! When I found out he was no more... I thought that I would be taken forever to a psychiatric hospital. A month has passed since his death. Naturally, I grieved no less. I wanted to bring him back to this world. And I was ready to do anything for it.

A classmate gave me the address of a magician. I came to him, paid for the session. He whispered something, buzzed, squeaked .... I watched his behavior and stopped believing in his "strength". Decided to stay until the end of the session. And I'm glad I didn't leave earlier. Fiol (that was the magician's name) gave me something in a small box. He told me not to open the box. I had to just put it under the pillow, constantly remembering Igor.

And so it did! True, his hands trembled a little. And lips (from fright), because it had to be done in the dark. I tossed and turned for a long time, I could not even take a nap. It is a pity that sleeping pills could not be drunk. I did not notice how the dream visited me. It occurred to me that….

I walk along a narrow path towards a bright light. I walk and hear a declaration of love, which Igor continuously whispered to me. I walked, walked, walked... I wanted to stop, I couldn't. My legs seemed to be leading me somewhere. My uncontrollable steps were accelerating.

He said the following:“I'm needed here. I cannot return. Don't forget me, but don't suffer either. You should have someone else by your side. And I will be your angel .... "

He disappeared and my eyes opened. I tried to go back - nothing happened. I grabbed the box and opened it. I saw in it a small gilded shell! I do not part with her, as well as with the memories of Igor.

Beautiful story of an ugly girl

“I have always disliked my appearance. It seemed to me that I was the most - the most ugly girl in the universe. Many people told me that this was not true, but I did not believe it. I hated mirrors. Even in cars! I avoided any mirrors and reflective objects.

I was twenty-two, but I didn't date anyone. Guys and men ran away from me the way I ran from my own appearance.

I decided to go to Kyiv to get distracted and unwind. I bought a train ticket and went. I looked out the window, listened to pleasant music ... I don’t know what exactly I expected from this trip. But my heart longed for this city. This one, not any other!

Time on the road went by quickly. I was very sorry that I did not have time to enjoy the road as it should. And I didn’t manage to take a picture, as the train raced unbearably fast.

Nobody was waiting for me at the station. I even envied those whom I met. I stood for three seconds at the station and headed to the taxi rank to get to the hotel where I had booked in advance.

I got into a taxi and heard:“are you the girl who is not sure about her appearance, and who still does not have a soul mate?”

I was surprised, but answered positively. Now I am married to this man. And how he knows all this about me is still a secret. He doesn't want to admit it, he just flat out...

This story happened back in 1978. I studied then in the 5th grade and was a very little girl. My mother worked as a teacher, and my father was an employee of the prosecutor's office. He never talked about his work. In the morning he put on a uniform and went to work, and in the evening he returned home. Sometimes he came gloomy and ...

Mysterious Murders at the Hinterkaifeck Farm

In 1922, the mysterious murder of six people committed on the small farm of Hinterkaifeck shocked all of Germany. And not only because the murders were committed with horrendous cruelty.

All the circumstances associated with this crime were very strange, even mystical, and to this day it remains unsolved.

During the investigation, more than 100 people were interrogated, but no one was ever arrested. Not a single motive that could somehow explain what happened was also identified.

The maid who worked in the house ran away six months ago, claiming it was haunted. The new girl arrived just a few hours before the murder.

Apparently, the attacker was on the farm for at least a few days - someone fed the cows and ate in the kitchen. In addition, neighbors saw smoke coming from the chimney during the weekend. The photo shows the body of one of the dead, found in a barn.

Phoenix Lights

The so-called "Phoenix Lights" are several flying objects that more than 1000 people observed on the night of Thursday, March 13, 1997: in the sky over the states of Arizona and Nevada in the USA and over the state of Sonora in Mexico.

In fact, two strange events occurred that night: a triangular formation of luminous objects that moved across the sky, and several motionless lights hovering over the city of Phoenix. However, in the latest US Air Force, they recognized the lights from the A-10 Warthog aircraft - it turned out that at that time military exercises were taking place in southwestern Arizona.

Solway Firth Astronaut

In 1964, the family of Briton Jim Templeton was walking near the Solway Firth. The head of the family decided to take a picture of his five-year-old daughter with Kodak. The Templetons claimed that there was no one else in these marshy places except them. And when the pictures were developed, one of them showed a strange figure peeking out from behind the girl. The analysis showed that the photo was not subjected to any changes.

falling body

The Cooper family has just moved into their new home in Texas. In honor of the housewarming, a festive table was laid, at the same time we decided to take some family photos. And when the pictures were developed, a strange figure was found on them - it seems that someone's body is either hanging or falling from the ceiling. Of course, the Coopers did not see anything like this during the shooting.

Too many hands

The four guys were fooling around taking pictures in the yard. When the film was shown, it turned out that one extra hand appeared on it from nowhere (peeps out from behind the back of a guy in a black T-shirt).

"Battle of Los Angeles"

This picture was published in the Los Angeles Times on February 26, 1942. To this day, conspiracy theorists and ufologists cite it as evidence of extraterrestrial visits to Earth. They claim that the photo clearly shows that the beams of searchlights fall on an alien flying ship. However, as it turned out, the photo for the publication was pretty retouched - this is a standard procedure, which almost all published black-and-white photographs were subjected to to heighten the effect.

The incident itself, captured in the photo, was called a “misunderstanding” by the authorities. The Americans had just survived the Japanese attack, and in general the tension was incredible. Therefore, the military got excited and opened fire on the object, which, most likely, was a harmless weather balloon.

The lights of Hessdalen

In 1907, a group of educators, students and scientists set up a scientific camp in Norway to study a mysterious phenomenon called the Hessdalen Fires.

On a clear night, Bjorn Hauge took this picture using a shutter speed of 30 seconds. Spectral analysis showed that the object must be composed of silicon, iron and scandium. This is the most informative, but far from the only photo of the Hessdalen Lights. Scientists are still scratching their heads as to what it could be.

Time traveller

This photo was taken in 1941 during the opening of the South Forks Bridge. The attention of the public was attracted by a young man who was considered by many to be a "time traveler" - because of his modern hairstyle, zip-up sweater, printed T-shirt, fashionable glasses and a soap camera. The whole outfit is clearly not from the 40s. On the left, a camera is highlighted in red, which was actually in use at that time.

9/11 Attack - South Tower Woman

In these two shots, a woman can be seen standing on the edge of the hole in the South Tower after the plane crashed into the building. Her name is Edna Clinton and, not surprisingly, she was on the list of survivors. How she did it is beyond me, considering everything that happened in that part of the building.

skunk monkey

In 2000, a woman who wished to remain anonymous took two photographs of the mysterious creature and sent it to the Sarasota County Sheriff (Florida). The photographs were accompanied by a letter in which the woman assured that she photographed a strange creature in the backyard of her house. The creature came to her house three nights in a row and stole the apples left on the terrace.

UFO in the painting "Madonna with Saint Giovannino"

The Madonna with Saint Giovannino is by Domenico Ghirlandai (1449-1494) and is currently in the collection of the Palazzo Vecchio, Florence. Above Maria's right shoulder, a mysterious flying object and a man who is watching it are clearly visible.

Incident at Lake Falcon

Another encounter with a supposed extraterrestrial civilization took place near Lake Falcon on May 20, 1967.

Someone Stefan Michalak was resting in these places and at some point noticed two descending cigar-shaped objects, one of which landed very close. Michalak claims to have seen the door open and heard voices coming from within.

He tried to speak to the aliens in English, but there was no answer. Then he tried to get closer, but came across an "invisible glass", which, apparently, served as a protection for the object.

Suddenly, Michalak was surrounded by a cloud of air so hot that his clothes caught fire. The man suffered severe burns.

Bonus:

This story took place on the evening of February 11, 1988 in the city of Vsevolozhsk. There was a light knock on the window of the house where a woman who was fond of spiritualism and her teenage daughter lived. Looking out, the woman saw no one. Went out on the porch - no one. And there were no footprints in the snow under the window either.

The woman was surprised, but did not attach much importance. And half an hour later there was a pop and part of the glass in the window where the invisible guest was knocking fell off, forming an almost perfectly round hole.

The next day, at the request of the woman, her Leningrad acquaintance, candidate of technical sciences S.P. Kuzionov, arrived. He carefully examined everything and took several pictures.

When the photograph was developed, it showed the face of a woman peering into the lens. Both the mistress of the house and Kuzionov himself found this face unfamiliar.
