Tell your 'what the heck was that thing?' scary story

[Chickenfan4life]

Okay, so this happened to me when I was about 4- 5 years old, and I remember it clear as day which is why I am certain it was real. At the foot of my parents bed was this huge chest that they kept all of my school papers and projects in, and directly across from that chest was the closet. Anyway, one night I was sleeping in my parents bed and for whatever reason I woke up in the middle of the night. Both of my parents were asleep on either side of me. I sat up in bed, and looked down near that chest. We had a bright nightlight in the corner of the room so the room was pretty well lit. Down at the end of the chest was a man sitting cross legged and staring up at me. His entire body was burned badly and his eyes were glazed over. He wore a black suit that was covered with holes, probably from a fire. I remember the smell of smoke in that room like it happened only a few hours ago. As I often did when I was scared at night, I pulled the sheets over my head and tried to go back to bed, though I didn't sleep any more that night. In the morning he was gone, but the entire house smelled like smoke. My parents smelled the smoke too, and I remember my stepdad rushing us all out of the house and into the street. The house was not on fire. We moved from that house years ago, but my parents still have the chest. I have NEVER gone near that thing in my life since then. I'm still terrified of it. My sisters and parents sleep upstairs where we live now and I sleep downstairs just to be as far away from that chest possible. I also have my room set up so that it isn't possible for anything to be at the foot of my bed. My parents say that it was a dream, but whatever happened that night was real. So that's my terrifiying story. The only one I have actually, but I don't need any more than that in my life.

Wow... What do you think it meant? Like, maybe he was trying to warn you?

I actually do have one more that was told to me two nights ago by my aunt. It's a true story. She just gave birth to her son, Jacob, about a month ago. Due to complications, she had to stay at the hospital for a week after giving birth. Because she was no longer considered a patient, they moved her to another room in the hospital. It was an old delivery room that was no longer in use. Above her hospital bed, there was a bloody crucifix hung on the wall. She said it was the most terrifying thing ever to have to lay under it. Her son was in a crib against one wall so the doctors could monitor him. My uncle slept in a chair against the other wall. In the middle of the night, she has a dream that dozens of baby hands were reaching from underneath her bed and pinning her down. She could hear the screams of mothers giving birth and babies crying. She said that in her dream, she was in the same room she was really in and her husband was sleeping in the same spot and the baby was in the same spot. Her scream finally broke through, and she woke up. She told me that she told the doctors that she needed to be moved to a different room and they moved her without questioning why. We think that the same thing has happened to other people in the same room. It WAS a delivery room, so who knows how many mothers and babies have dies in there?

Anyway, that for sure is all the stories I have. And yes, they are both true.

I'm completely freaked out. D: Thanks for sharing, though!

I don't know. I don't even remember that house or anything else from me being that age. I just can't forget that mans face. I was so full of pain when he looked at me. I could look up the history of that house, maybe it burned down or something. But anyway, he could have been trying to warn me. We moved soon after that incident. Maybe he was trying to get us to move? I don't know. I don't know much about spirits but I don't know if they are able to travel to different places after they die if for some reason they are unable to pass on. So he probably at one point lived there. I only recently told my parents what I had seen that night. My stepdad tells me it was just a dream, but my mom believes it. I will have to ask her if she ever had any experiences with things like that. I'm a teenager now, and I wanted to wait until I was to tell my parents this story. I didn't think they would believe me otherwise. Parents tend not to believe their kids too often, especially the youngest children when it comes to things like this. And I agree, most kids would make stuff like this up for attention.

They arent really stories but here goes...


Alot of times when im in the shower the lights and water will flash off for a second before flashing back on. I Know im not blinking because the water goes off with the lights before coming back on.Its really brief and fast but it does happen...


And sometimes when im out taking care of the animals when i look in the coop to check on the hens (Who are eating) I see our dead hens milling around then i blink and their gone.

At night when im in bed i here Thunk! Like a car door being slammed shut. Even when no one is out front.

I have one its not to scary but is is freaky My grandma used to have this little music player that went on the door and when you opened the door it would pull the chain and it would play a little tune i heard that tune a million times i thought it was so fun to open the door and listen to it but one day it stopped working and i was so dissipointed and i always tried to get it to play again but i gave up and it sat on the door hook for 15 years. well one night i was down in my basement watching tv in the dark when i heard the chain of that music player being pulled and the tune playing on the shelf next to the tv witch the only thing on that shelf is family pictures nothing else so i got up and turned on the lights and went over to the shelf and nothing was there but the pictures. To this day i don't know what happened that night i know that there is nothing in that basement that plays any kind of tune but it was the exact same tune that that music player played.

Well I have a lot of weird experiences, but I'll write one: one night dreamed I woke up amd went to the bathroom, normal stuff, when I was about to wash my hands I saw a lady in the mirror, a young one, but she looked like she came from the 20's, she smiled at me, and I froze, after that I woke up, I noticed that the light of my bathroom was on, and I had wet and cold hands
