>People stare and I loosen my grip
>She runs off

I didn't hear from her for a few days. A few days later the cops knocked at my door, asking if I'd seen her. I told them about that night and they and told me they needed me for questioning. They kept me there the whole day - after we had the fight she was found murdered on some beach. A lot of witnesses had seen me grabbing her and for a long time I was the main suspect, but finally they let me go because there was no evidence.
What scares me is how close I came to being put away, for something I didn't do. I could have been put on death row or something if they decided to link me to some other murders, which they easily could have seeing as I live in the bad side of the city. Sometimes I still get awful nightmares where I'm in prison, waiting to get fried.

A young girl is playing in her bedroom when she hears her mother call to her from the kitchen, so she runs downstairs to meet her mother.

As she’s running through the hallway, the door to the cupboard under the stairs opens, and a hand reaches out and pulls her in. It’s her mother. She whispers to her child, “Don’t go into the kitchen. I heard it too.”

>>25731830

turns out I had hit a pack of these fucks with the shovel. They scream like satan's own fiery asshole when scared. Here, we call them children of the earth, they are actually pretty cool insects.

>>25731958

They actually scream? I used to run across those guys when I was a kid playing in the yard out here in California.

True but you also get the shitiness of /x/ with it.

OP, go ask /k/ for their innawoods NOPE stories.

>>25731996

Yeah, it is creepy as fuck

Tried to find a video, but they rarely scream, only when very threatened or injured.
I had cut one in half with the shovel and heard the death scream.

I have two stories. I'm not entirely sure if I've told them on /tg/ before, but I'll do it anyway, two separate posts.

I have to ask, what the hell is up with this game? I see people posting 'loadouts' for it all the time. I went to the site but I don't get it? What's up with this Innawoods thing?

Ahem - Let me begin yon /tg/

>Be first year Uni student, staying with my fiancee (now wife) at her old house several years ago.
>She kept dropping in things about the house and the estate being haunted - at the time I didn't really buy it.
>One thing was definite though, neither my fiancees kids or cat liked going upstairs into the largest (at the time her) bedroom).
>A couple of weeks pass, I am slightly creeped out by being upstairs on my own but can handleit.jpg

And so one night . . .

>Me and my fiancee lying in bed talking, the room is well lit by the blue glow from the alarm clock and the streetlamp outside.
>Slowly but surely the lights start to dim somehow, as if they are not putting out as much light as they did before.
>Then the temperature starts to drop and the mood darkens to boot.
>We both lie in bed as we watch what can only be described as a "Shadow" step out of the bookcase and into the room - we are both watching the same thing and no one has said a goodamn word until I ask her is she can see the same damn thing as me, she replies "yes" and I ask "what" and she says that a "Shadow has just stepped out of the fucking bookcase"

This thing hung around for what must have been five minutes of fear, one of the few times in my life I have ever internally nopenopenope.jpg'd and neither of us said a word, as our hands gingerly met in the middle of the bed.

It would be best to say that at the time the bed didn't have a frame, it was just a matress on the floor with sheets - and the shadow still had not moved.

>My wife panics suddenly as she cries out that someone has grabbed her foot, and then proceeds to SLIDE down the fucking bed horizontally by about a foot of distance.
>I panic and grab her, we pull together until she is huddled up next to me.
>A few moments of panic later the goddamn Shadow-thing steps backwards back through the fucking bookcase and dissapears.
>Eventually the light returns to the room.

>>25732198

The few people who claim to be "experienced" or "professional" in the paranormal have flat out told me "It was a demon" when I told them the story, but I still don't know what to think about it.

About six weeks later we moved house, so I have no idea what happened since.

>>25732193
No idea, I just picked these up from a similar thread about a month back.

>>25732204
What a lazy demon.

>>25732193

Innawoods = in the woods.

/k/ is full of firearms and combat freaks, and they often go hiking and exploring and shit.

>>25731958
I dunno what you tell you man, but Jerusalem Crickets (that's what that pic is of) don't scream.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerusalem_cricket

Seems like a lot of people think they can though, so there's something there.

I'm really fucking curious about this now.

>>25732198
You should ask her now how many people have gotten fooled by that trick.

>>25732198
Paranormal activity sucks, man. At least plagiarise something good.

>>25732213

Yeah but is it some kind of game or something? Or are they just wishlists of some sort?

>>25732184
Yes.

>>25732213
It's called innawoods because whenever you ask /k/ what they'd do come apocalypse, their answer is "I'd grab my [particular gun] and prepacked bag and go live innawoods."

All my creepy stuff is sleep paralysis related.

>>25732193
Going innawoods is every /k/ommando's contingency plan for when society breaks down.

Obama tries to instill martial law? Grab your guns and go innawoods.

China invades? Grab your guns and go innawoods.

Aliens attack? Grab your guns and go innawoods.

George Zimmerman is found innocent and every black person in America goes on a killing spree? Grab your guns and go innawoods.

Going into the woods is just /k/'s generic solution to every problem, like we have "thin your paints" and /fit/ has "squats and oats." Someone just made a little GUI loadout program for fun.

>>25732219
That article doesn't say anything about screaming, either yes or no.

>>25732212
>>25732222
>>25732224

Heh - I should have expected /tg/ summerfags would be out and about on a sunday morning but I know what happened and you guys can suck a goat.

The thing was, by that point only paranormal activity one had been released and I have refused to watch all of them, I fucking hate ghost films.

>>25732244

That 'splains it. thanks.

i had some really scary lucid dreams. you could have an episodic dream were you know it's a dream and the players die horribly but they know that they are going to wake up. i don't know what you would use to motivate them though. maybe you could have alternate levels like a ghost walk campaign

>>25732219

Wait are people asking for fucked up animal sounds? Cause I have a bunch of links then.

>>25732240
>>25732244
Of course, going innawoods for most people is not going to greatly prolong their life. Too easy to have one mishap and die from a broken leg, or being too cold, or getting an infection, and so on.

>>25731654
Animal? Maybe the driver was an animal lover, hit an animal wounded, blood everywhere runs into wilderness they follow.

>>25732286
It was an alien, mexicans are known for their love of BMWs.

Shit, I actually forgot a third story, though it's secondhand from my mom

>senior year for me
>week after stepdad kills himself
>she's cleaning out house, certain it's cursed because stepdad's dad died in the yard a few years ago when he and stepdad's mom lived there
>lays on the couch to take a nap
>wakes up when she hears someone talking
>her phone that she had put on the floor next to the couch had dialed stepdad's sister, who was asking why mom had called but wasn't talking
>later the same day, while cleaning, the computer printer turns on and spits out a blank paper
>printer was unplugged

That's when she nope'd and came back to her friend's house that she was staying at for moral support. Next day the house got robbed.

>>25732238

Well okay.


I used to live out in the countryside. We had a nice big house and a big paddock out back where the horses lived, however the horses died many years before this story. Maybe six years ago?

Anyhoo, one night I and my family were watching TV and preparing dinner when we noticed a humming, ringing noise. It was barely noticeable at first but gradually got louder. Curious, I and my mum switched off the TV and the cooker, but it seemed to be coming from outside. So I went out into the darkness, thinking it could be the pool filter.
So I headed through our garage out to the back of the house, it nearly being pitch black apart from all the light from the house of course. The ringing noise got louder and louder as I approached the pool filter which faces the paddock.
The filter, as you might have guessed, was off and not making any noise. I then realized it was coming from the dead middle of the dark paddock, and was really loud. And bam, it stopped instantly just as it began to hurt my ears, dropping everything into instant silence. Suddenly I had the funny compulsion to look up.

I saw a UFO. It looked like three bright blue lights in a triangular formation on a black shadow. As soon as I looked up it very quickly disappeared into the clouds without a sound. Then a few moments later from the opposite direction I heard the roar of a plane engine as a jet liner flew overhead.

I dunno what it was, but I think it moved away because the passenger jet was coming. Nothing else ever happened at my old place, just that one incident. Sorry if it wasn't very scary or anything.

>>25732023
Nope.

Get it?

>Dead silent for a few brief seconds.

>>25732219
wikipedia, totally infallible. half page article must contain all details of an insects behavior.

I've heard it happen at least twice in my life. and only when the insect in question has been wounded somehow but not out right killed. I would assume most studies don't involve maiming the insects.

I think it is a last ditch self defense mechanism, it is scary as fuck, but it would also give away the insect's location to any nearby predator. I think it is the sound made when they rub their legs together at super high speeds. they don't have wings like most crickets do.

It sounds very, very human, almost child like

>>25732165
I'm reading through all of this. Spooked as fuck.

>>25732272
Oooh, yes please

Man, I'm like...the reverse of paranormal.
Entire father's side of the family regularily has dreams with the dead family members trying to tell them something or warning or whateva. Dad tells about his experience with ouija board where they asked the board stuff and got told, specifically, that Chruschev died, and sure as heck, next day the radio does inform that he passed away.

So yeah, hardly occultistic, but at least your usual run of the mill "portenty" stuff everyone gets.

Me? I saw a white shape once on the windowsill as a kid (could've been a pidgeon, but pidgeons don't fucking fly at night), and that's it. I guess I'm better for it, I used to be afraid of the dark for the longest time without any shit going bump in the night. Heck, still am uncomfortable in the night-wierdly enough, more at home than outside. So yeah, all I get is ton of dejavu's and nice dreams of flying around (well, almost nice, the dream where I floated past Auschwitz gate and it was leading to my old city district was a bit wierd). Eh, suits me fine I guess.

Because you killed her and are now wearing her skin while laughing and smiling with her friends?

Goddamn skinwalkers pretending to be normal /tg/ posters.

Not supernatural, but kinda silly.

Once we were fooling around with a bunch of friends and for some reason I wondered what happens when you call yourself. As in, dial the phone you make the call from. We're kinda all laughing at the silliness as I dial my number and put the phone to my ear.
My heart skips a beat and the smile immediately drops, when I hear my own voice going, "Hello?...Hello?". Realization dawned when it cut to "Is someone th-nah I'm just kidding. I'm not here right now leave a message" etc.

It had gone to my answer message, and I was THAT guy. Funny how it fooled myself though.

Apparently we found out 2 people had killed themselves there, and there were rumors of hauntings, and to add more 'proof' the lights in that space all blew out, yet when I checked.. the fuses were ok, no breakers blew.. just lights all faling at the same time.

Or, in con, where the sonar guys kept hearing some biological thing that was absurdly deep, and absurdly fast. It sounded "like a giant squid on steroids," and we were apparently over the eastern caribbean at the time. So we may have found ctuhlu at the time.

To this day I haven't the faintest idea what that was about. And nobody ever believes me when I tell the story.

>>25731958
Do those things bite? I have lots of them around here and I'd totally just pick them up when they get in the house since that's easier than getting a cup, but they look like they might be biters.

>>25734001
Good thing you had your cats about you. I have never had any kind of paranormal experience as long as at least one cat was in the house. I think ghosts are ailurophobic. Also heard quite a few stories of cats apparently being pretty good at 'sniffing out' paranormal activity, though many of the described reactions might just as well come from the cats seeing, smelling or hearing small animals that the humans just miss. Didn't /tg/ work on something called Call of Cathulu or somesuch?

>>25734056
According to Wiki they have rather painful bite, but I supposed they only bite in extreme situations.

That's kinda cool. Reminds me of a superstition my grandfather had that killing spiders was bad luck because... something about their webs catching bad spirits or something... I can't remember exactly. He and my grandmother were from some backwoods part of Ukraine and had all kinds of weird folk beliefs.

>>25734103
In that particular situation the primary reason I was glad the cats were there was that they were reacting too, so I wasn't just hallucinating. That's usually their contribution to unexplained weirdness. Well, the companionship helps too, to be honest.

Otherwise, I've never heard of the paranormal being afraid of cats, though. And I've never not had cats, but I still have my share of ghost stories. If they keep spooks away, I must either be a ghost magnet or always end up in strongly haunted houses.

>>25734207
Yeah, pretty much all I know is that they were from Ukraine. I don't know whereabouts, or even exactly when they left. It was still part of the Soviet Union at the time, that's about all I know.

>>25734181
It is actually smart since all spiders in Europe are completely harmless and eat mosquitoes and other nasty shit. There is a reason for every superstition.

>>25734240
Most of the Slavic ghost stories are trolls, Baba Yaga and the witches, and mysterious animal heads all rollin' up on folk.

>>25734113
Yeah, supposedly mantises have painful bites, but I handle them at every opportunity and have never been bitten. (Luckily I held them before finding out they can hurt.) I guess the bigger question isn't so much if they -can- bite, but if they're -inclined- to.

>>25734181
I just don't kill spiders because they're living things that don't have ill intent. Seriously, three nights ago I found a black widow climbing up my shirt and just blew it off, got it in a cup, and released it outside.

>>25734240
In Poland we have old pople saying "if you kill a spider, it will rain" and that is about it.

If that were true, it'd only be an incentive to kill spiders. Aside from personally liking stormy weather, it's stupid hot here and there's a drought.

Way too big for a cougar. We only have black bears around here, but this thing was easily the size of a brown or a smaller grizzly. The lighting was low, but I could make out the size of the thing. I never went back because anything that just takes a bunch of 7.62x39 and runs is not something I want to pursue.

>>25734298
We are a model temperate climate country with helluva fertile land. We are more worried by too much rain and floods (we had a few serious country wide floodings in the past 15 years) than droughts (one in the past 20, 30 years?) so killing a spider to make it rain is not something you'd like to do here.

I got forced into watching PA by an old girlfriend, and I can attest as someone who does not like horror movies in the slightest that some of the time cards in the shinning are scarier than the entirety of PA.

The only terrifying part of the movie was me after a "tense build up" within the movie, grabbing my now ex and screaming (this was in no way related to why that relationship ended).

Killing that one isn't going to end them forever and that spider was halfway up my shirt after having been on me who knows how long. It had its chance to try and kill me and obviously didn't. It'd be a dick move to murder it at that point, now way I'm letting a spider be the bigger person.

Besides, it's the brown recluses we worry about around here anyway, I don't know of anybody dying to black widows.

>>25734433
Well, well, have a look at those two sets of repeating digits.
It could also have been that you could have cleared an age-old mystery, maybe the guy you encountered in the dark was phone!!!

>>25734442
Even then, the brown recluse is extremely shy. The only reason they bite people is because they tend to hide in shoes and gloves because they're dark, cramped spaces like its natural habitat.

So we were having weird shit happen. Soft voices in certain areas, generic sounds that happen a wee bit too much.
While it was creepy it only happened fairly rarely so I put it down to me being jumpy.

A few years later we got a cat from the SPCA. When we brought him inside he immediately began hissing and spitting. We didn't want to let him out of the cage but it was already loose and he just sprung out and began running through all the rooms yelling his head off.
A few minutes later he was on my bed licking his lips.
We have had no spooky shit after this.

>>25734528
Just an ancient belief that cats chase away evil spirits, or more that evil spirits are disinclined to encroach on a cat's territory for whatever reason.

Remember that movie, The Mummy? Imhotep totally flips his shit when he sees a cat and won't touch it. Totally based on real Egyptian shenanigans.

SKREEEEE isn't a conclusive sound description, but that story sounds a little familiar.

>loud SKRREEEEE-HAAAAIIIIRGH
>absolute silence about two seconds
>hear same sound about 60-70 feet away
>silence again, then sound again further away

It obviously didn't walk since I never heard leaf sounds, but even for flying that'd be pretty fast, and I never saw anything move but that first tree shake, which would require one big bird. And it didn't sound anything like birds I've heard before, and yeah, that includes the local owl sounds.

>>25734581
I think you are all victims of the sneaky cliffracer.

Not really a scary story, but supernatural non the less. I'm scandinavian and in my 50's and i did a few months of military training (Lumpen) Where i went as a fjälljägare. Winter infantry of a sort, where we skiied a lot etc. Once i was tasked with watching over a patch of land for a long period of time. I hadn't slept properly for days when i was tasked with this so it might be hallucinations, i don't know.

As i was sitting there, in a hidden spot i saw a troll, almost like one from bauer's drawings. It walked around betweend the spruces, looking at trees, brushing away leaves from rocks. Occasionally it would dissapear when walking behind a tree, only to reappear a few meters away behind another tree. I wasn't afraid, even though it was quite big. It didn't look evil or malicious. I never tell this story as if it weren't a hallucination, but i believe i saw a troll.

Because evil things are assholes. What do you think would scare the child more after she's lowered her guard: hearing some screeching/demonic voice and yelling to warn her actual mom, or believing her mother is her killer as her final thought before she's consumed?

>>25734581
It was just a high-pitched shriek. I don't really know how else to put it. Like a dental drill or something.

>>25734640
You know its all about the sound for me. It could be fucking spongebob with screeching and I would wet my pants.

>>25734640
To be fair I find the idea of the mother being in the cuboard being the actual mother being alot better for a low drawn out heart pounding scare.

it's a very sad cat that cries and just generally breaks the rules of biology by doing so

Nothing AMAZING, but I was in my kitchen early one morning and went through the doorway towards the living room when I felt something like a bottlecap hit me in the back of the head. The reason I thought it was a bottlecap was because I heard it hit the floor and go rolling. But I was the only one in the house and I couldn't find the bottle cap, let alone anything that could have fired it at the back of my head.

For inspiration, look up the Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark book series. Pretty interesting stuff, although the pictures in the book have an edge on the actual stories. That series has been in the back of my head for YEARS.

>>25734717
When one particular cat of mine got killed by something, I kept having dreams where he came up to me and I'd be overjoyed he was somehow okay but confused because I was sobbing at the same time. In retrospect I figure it was because part of me knew it wasn't real.

The dreams finally ended when I had one where three invisible silhouettes (makes no sense but that's my best description) asked me if he could go with them, because it was time for him to leave. Just as likely it was a psychological thing as anything more outlandish, but your story reminded me of that.

>>25734747
I'm not entirely sure about the second one being a warning to make her leave. I just threw that in there to kind of be like, "To top it all of..."

The first one, though, totally. She didn't have a touch screen, so it's not like something could've crawled over the phone or anything and just make an accidental call.

I've done this for a few years now, actually. My cat died about six months after my grandmother, both in 2009, and for a couple of years afterward I'd wake up and remember talking to my grandma while my cat was on my lap and I was petting him. I always just took it to be a sign of subconscious mourning, since when they both died I was busy with my senior year in college.

And it squeals, mechanical squealing but it lasts so long, like 5 or 6 seconds at a time, really loud. How could piped be settling in place for that long?
It sometimes randomly bubbles, but the gas doesnt stink like methane or anything
None of this happens if its been flushed in the last hour or so

Also, if this story is true, it's yet another example of man, do I wish someone there had tried to get a better look at the thing instead of just shooting it, running away, or both. It's exactly because of that stuff that I make a point to check out every weird-scary thing I can as best I can.

A lot of Scottish and Irish stories are like that too.

Sorry just always interested by the links and similarities between Celts and Eastern Europeans despite being at opposite ends of Europe.

I tried that lucid dreaming trick, that one where you lie perfectly still with your eyes open until you fall asleep. I started hallucinating though, and I just noticed the silhouette of a person standing at the foot of my bed. I ended up keeping my eyes on him the entire night. When the sun was about to rise, he looked out the window and then stepped out of the room.

People used ouija boards for ages with nothing weird happening, it is simply to do with the people playings subconcious.

Of course if one of the people playing happens to have a subconcious which is a gateway to the other side I guess the ouija board could act like a key for that.

True.

Though you don't seem to hear it so much in England or France, though I guess the Roman Empire moving up from the med and then the Anglo-Saxon and Normans moving down probably changed things a bit in ways that didn't really affect Celts or Slavs.

Fox scream.

Never really had many incidents of like ghost/demon type shit but one thing I was especially prone to in my teens was sliding.

SLI - Street light interference

Basically random lights were very prone to turning off when I walked past then coming back on once I was away from them.

Happened enough for my girlfriend at the time to take notice of it too.

Worst case though was when I was on holiday in Spain, walking back to the house at night on my own after nipping down to the local shop.

Turned onto the last road and the light above me goes off. Then the next one goes off. Then the next one. By this point I'm sprinting down the road with the lights going off.

A few days later, same situation, it happened again.

Stopped going out at night alone during the trip after that.

>>25735748
Probably. They inhabited the northern and eastern border of the Roman empire, and the area was mostly inhabited by Celtic-Illyric tribes, who mingled got swept up with the Slavic migrations from north and east. That, and because the old Slavs picked up pieces from all the cultures they went through, probably explains why there're so many similarities between them all, while the French and English remained pretty "pure" from outside influence.

I'm very thankful that I've only had one incident of sleep paralysis and that I didn't have any feelings of being watched or see anything hovering over me.

Just being awake but totally unable to move is bad enough without any of that.

>>25735842
I had a nasty false awakening combined with that thing. Fuck that noise.
Ended up unable to get up or scream or anything while something like a black hole of insects and claws and eyes began swallowing light expanding, coming towards me, devouring my room until only bugs remained behind. And the worst part is, you think you're awake, your brain tells you you're awake and that that thing is real.

>>25735842
I get it a lot due to changing between night shift and day shift a lot. Once you learn what it is it can kind of become pleasant. Thought the first 20 or 30 times where I could feel/see dark figures watching me freaked me the fuck out.

Generally speaking, I think the best way to repel otherworldly spirits, malevolent or otherwise who refuse to leave your home or residence is to masturbate. Vigorously.

/x/ is retarded so I'll ask here:

Is it possible to ''hack'' you brain? The other day I think I did it by accident.

I was lying in bed, eyes closed, complete darkness. I tried to imagine sounds, I tried to make my imaginary sound sound from the left and then move to the right side of my head.

I managed to do it, I could imagine a sound changing position around me, it was pretty cool, and then I got tired and tried to sleep.

But then, 30 seconds later or so, I hear a scream and the sound of a bird flying over me, it was loud as fuck and it was not real, but it sounded like it was real, not like a sound I could've imagined. I think I had an hallucination.

Is such a thing even possible?

It's happened to me before, once I heard my guitar loud as fuck on the corner of my room and another time I heard a man screaming in my left ear.

I think it has something to do with how some cultures repelled bad juju shit such as the evil eye. I'm not an expert in this stuff by any means, but Wiki says this:

>Among the ancient Romans and their cultural descendants in the Mediterranean nations, those who were not fortified with phallic charms had to make use of sexual gestures to avoid the eye. Such gestures include the fig sign; a fist with the index and little finger extended and a fist with the thumb pressed between the index and middle fingers, representing the phallus within the vagina. In addition to the phallic talismans, statues of hands in these gestures, or covered with magical symbols, were carried by the Romans as talismans. In Latin America, carvings of the fist with the thumb pressed between the index and middle fingers continue to be carried as good luck charms.

I'm guessing something having to do with sexuality drives bad energies away? If you live alone, just take a jerk tour of your home.

Alternatively, it could just be that I enjoy what ghosts consider nasty porn.

This is way late in the thread, but I'll bite.

I am thirteen, and staying at my grandfathers house in Mokotua, Southland, New Zealand. He's a farmer, of sheep and deer. His land stretches a few dozen acres, a vast area for any farmer. After a day of doing the work he asked of me, he's a pretty old-school guy so he works me hard, I poke around in the old house on his property.
In this house the workers used to live. This was almost overwhelmingly Maori. Now they're pretty good folk, the Maori, in my experience. Like to eat, like to drink, have a fierce but intelligent characteristic that I admire. But this house was different. It was bare. Nothing in at all. Not even a bent fucking spoon.
And so, after this I left it alone. Drove an ftv around the property, shot some rabbits with a .22, bothered the deer. You know, the usual entertaining a youth on a farm.
That night, I wasn't sleeping. This isn't an unusual thing. I don't sleep at the best of times, and this wasn't a 'best time'.
At some point, I decided to go for a walk. I took myself out of the house, down the driveway, across the cattle-stop. Through the entrance to the farm. I stand on the street and bathe in the cool night air.
That's when I see her. The woman, clad in feathers and bone, hair bound up with dried blood, and fierce moko bounding her face.
She's standing there, under the streetlamp, and she looks at me, and smiles.
At that moment I realise that she is no woman, but something far more horrible.
I run, back to my grandfathers house, and I hide my head under the covers.

Thank you Shadman.

I've got a few spooky memories but I cant think of any that would make a good story. Like one time I was going to bed and went to the light switch, turned the lights down and the only source of light was the TV in my parent's room two rooms away. Both their and my door has thick glass planes on it for decoration. Anyway, I'm looking at their light and suddenly a vaguely human, very tall figure silently slides past between the two doors. And the only people at home that time was me and my parents who were both in their room. Would have thought its a burglar or something but the figure was completely inhuman looking and too tall. In a fit of brave heroics I crawled into my bed, pulled the covers above my head and whimpered a few hours.

I don't have a satisfying ending to this story. I don't believe in Maori spiritual shit, in fact no Maori lived in this area, too far South.

I know that feel. "Welp, time for sleeping." Then suddenly this atrocious, indescribable scream from outside the window. Which is open. Only the cover is lowered. That feel when you're too scared to move, or even breath loudly and you strain your ears only to hear some rustling or steps up in the attic.

Fucking foxes/cats.

I hope.

I think the stories I find the most scary here are the ones where an actual creature is encountered, not just a ghost, or strange sounds.

Hell, I know I've experienced my share of 'I hear footsteps upstairs and I'm home alone,' or 'I've been awake for an hour and I can still hear the voices I heard in my nightmare last night,' or 'I was laying in bed and I was suddenly grabbed by the shoulders and shaken, but no one was there,' but that can all be explained by lack of sleep, or some mild chemical imbalance.

But seeing a goat man drag a woman out of a tent? Holy shit dude. That's fucking intense.

Like this fucking picture. That's a frozen lake that thing is under.

Just remember. If you're gonna go inna woods, always grab your rifle first.

>>25736333

What bothers me the most are the skinwalker stories.

Someone you know just comes out of the woods one day and it's just...not them. They're there but they aren't really there. I hope I'm making sense.

By the way, there are a metric fuckton of girls on tumblr who think they're artsy, and go out in the woods and take pictures of themselves wearing a dress and antlers, or something similar.

They're all fucking terrifying. Pic related.

I have an ex girlfriend who likes to send me pictures like this with the prompt "Walking through the woods, see this, wat do?" The correct answer is always run the fuck away.

Shit this is why the moral of half of all fairy tales was "Don't go in the fucking woods."

>>25736378
The problem with that is that actually describing the creature strains our suspension of disbelief. As long as we can think "Haha there is a rational explanation for this. Probably." The story has a grip on our interest and we can feel genuine fear due to empathy. But if some anon says he met a woman with snake hair who turned his girlfriend to stone then got cut down by a guy on a flying horse thats less 2spooky4me and more 'take your fanfiction to tumblr'.

You make complete sense. Anytime your environment changes with no discernible cause, it's horrifying.

Shit, a couple weeks ago I come back to my apartment (I live alone) and grab a jar of peanutbutter for a sandwich, and there's an indentation like someone took a spoonful of it. I only use knives to get peanutbutter out of the jar.

I freaked the fuck out for a solid hour. But what the fuck am I going to do? Call the cops and say "My peanutbutter looks funny."

What are you going to do? Call the cops and say "My friend doesn't remember our childhood handshake ever since we went camping." They'd fucking lock you up.

>>25736436
New Zealand has a lot of skinwalker stories.
The basis of which are; there are things in the forest which are not your friends.

My father went out hunting with his mate, and after spending a couple of days hunting this hog, they got separated.
A half-day passes. I don't know if you hunt, but even hunting a whole twelve hours does not go unnoticed. My father goes back to the camp and prepares a meal, probably of beans and billy-bread.
His friend comes back, and is unusually silent. Monosyllabic answers and with no reaction to stories.
When he came back he killed himself.

Again, and this is a theme with NZ stories, there is no payoff. There is no punchline. There is merely 'I experienced this. I have no frame of reference. What do you think?'

I've got a bunch of stories, it's nearly six AM, I'm drunk as fury. I'll only tell more stories on request.

Native American monster, primarily Navajo but origins and exact nature varies. The consistent parts are...

1) They are seriously bad fucking news.
2) They can change their appearance at will, becoming people you know and love or complete strangers or animals. Often there's a requirement that they kill and eat the flesh of whatever they turn into. Alternatively they might skin their victim alive and literally wear their husk like a suit.
3) They're malicious tricksters who'll just as likely kill you as rearrange all your shit when you're asleep.

Twist my arm.
I experienced this when I was in the scouts, about twelve years old.

We had to walk a long time. The camp was thirty kilometers away, and we had to carry fifteen kilo packs. That's a heavy load for the average twelve year old.
I was exhausted when I got to camp, and barely could keep my teammates up when we had to build a fire. We rested, gathered resources and cooked a brief meal.
The weather darkened. Rain began to fall. To keep us entertained, the scout leader divided us into troupes. And we wandered off.

We were walking for perhaps two hours. It was meant to be a whole day mission, but ended up stranding a troop for more than two days.
We were fine. We walked for a few hours, gathered some edible foods, but we lost c troupe. They were gone, man.
The end of our day was peculiar. We weren't allowed to talk about our missing friends. We were told that it was just normal.
Now this wasn't terribly abnormal. There were a half-dozen scout masters, and they each ran their own plans. One could drag his troop out and run an exercise. That's not a big deal.
And so we slept.
The day after one of the boys of our troop demanded that we send out a search party. The rest of us were not worried. We assumed it was some form of strange team-building exercise.
We literally searched for a full day. Gave signs at every corner. Marked trees, left banners. We tried to find our lost friends.
And so, some thirty hours after we had lost a dozen people, we decided to go for one last search. It was a frightening search. We had lost faith that they were okay.
We literally thought they had died.
And you know what? When we were gone they came back. No evidence, no movement through the trees. The scoutmaster said they had been gone for maybe ten hours, not a day and a half.
I wish I had evidence. because this story sounds fucking stupid, but it's what I experienced.

Ponaturi, te maero and te patu-paiarehe are common names for the changeling folk.
They are dangerous and fickle people. More likely to kill a man than let him live, and sometimes they take a lifetime.

>>25736885
Now a story told to me by my great-grandfather.

"Now, boy! This was when I was a young man, and strong! I was working for a cattle farm, milking them cows. I used to fancy that the teats between my fingers were the nipples of this girl I knew! Aroha, her name was. Hips to bridge the Tasman sea!
Now, my brother an I were laying on the beach. We had just eat a meal of mussels. Big, greenlip mussels, a dozen of which would be a meal for two people. During the night on this beach I was woke, woke by music. The sound of this music pulled me away from the beach. Not the horns of the forest, not the bass notes of the beach, but a singing voice. The voice of a woman. And I wandered into the trees, looking for her. I wanted her to be mine, such a fine voice would make a fine woman.
But when I came to, it was not the place I left.

The New Zealand bush is surprisingly dangerous. Lush, full of plants and game, it is quite welcome to human life. The sheer hills, cold nights, deadly plantlife and absolute isolation kills many men a year.

I've only ever had false awakenings twice and both times included sleep paralysis.
But, it was just, "wake up, can't move, oh, I can just barely lift my arm, wake up"
Now, that feeling you get when walking through the dark that something is right behind you.
