“I was dwelling on this grim data as I watched the moonlight illuminate the tombstones littering the small desert cemetery.  The light made the already white granite stones appear almost translucent.  Row after row of headstones reflected back the moon’s glow.  As a result, I could almost read the inscriptions off the closest stones.  Names and lives long forgotten to time.  The wind had picked up...

“His body was blocking my view, so I didn't get a good look at the guy in the glasses, but the second that lighter flicked on, the homeless guy screamed louder than I've ever heard in my entire life. In a flash, the homeless guy was gone. The lighter clattered on to the concrete and the sound of screaming faded into the distance before swiftly getting cut off.” Written By: PriestessOfSpiders- http...

“It was only four in the afternoon, but Brandon was already up on the small platform we called a stage, playing his guitar and singing directly to Ash, regardless of how many other patrons were enjoying the show. I just sat on one of the barstools, and leaned back, nursing a wonderfully chilled beer, while admiring the skillful strumming of my friend and business partner. As I stared off; daydream...

“My name is Donovan Black. The time is currently 0530 hours or 5:30 A.M, the sun should have been rising right around now, but it still is dark out there. We will be vacating this place and hopefully look for a new shelter. They know we are here now and they will definitely get to us if we stay here much longer.  God has looked away…but we can still find hope. We cannot get the radio to work…this...

“I drag myself out of bed and into the shower. Getting ready for work in a dazed state, my body on autopilot. Looking in the mirror I feel sick, seeing the lines on my face, the clear representation of how much time has passed since I’ve been stuck in this endless loop.” Written By: Ilive4scarystories- https://www.r-ddit.com/user/Ilive4scarystories/   Thumbnail By: TDN https://twitter.com/TDNArtis...

“Did I let this deter me? No. I figured it added to the authenticity. Pretzel Pete didn’t concern himself with appearances – his only focus was yoga. I’d always been the kind of cynical guy that hates corporate fakeness and big-budget anything. The yoga studio Google Maps led me to was the furthest from marketing departments and branding you could get. A chance to put my money where my overly-prin...

“Human beings have a capacity to dread the truth, to distort facts when they don’t fit our predefined notions of how the world should work. We forget that reality isn’t what we want it to be. We ignore the signs that our universe doesn’t care about us. It constantly changes to suit its own needs. Nothing is perfect.

"We got our food and got back on the road. My barely functioning hand reached for my large soda in the cup holder. I inadvertently knocked it out of the indention in the center console and onto the floor at her feet. She screamed and laughed when the freezing beverage splashed across her feet. Somehow, she managed to control the car after yanking her foot off of the accelerator pedal. She turned t...

“I cannot be certain of course, but I believe that something happened in that flat, something  that most people would classify as dangerous. I know that not giving my name will highly  undermine my credibility, though I hope for the enclosed transcript to lend my words more  weight.” Written By: scaredwithstyle (haroldkebba)- https://www.r-ddit.com/user/haroldkebba/   Thumbnail By: TDN https://twi...

"I saw the police car driving back and forward for another few minutes. We both eyed the clock as the second hand seemed to be in no rush to tick it's way to midnight.

“I’ve always loved being scared. Thrill rides, haunted houses, horror movies. I’ve also always suffered crippling anxiety. Sounds like a paradox but I think I enjoy anything that allows me to be in control of the fear… or at least believe I am.” Written By: Ilive4scarystories https://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/w6xjx6/i_used_to_love_urban_exploring/   Thumbnail By: TDN https://twitter.com/TD...

“If you are hearing these words, I might have achieved what I set out to do: I might have found  someone who is willing to listen to what I have to say, to what I have uncovered. In this series you will find the results of my search for those kinds of strange reports that most  people would not pay much attention to. I, however, think that they are linked through  unbelievable circumstances. “ Wri...

“I had the dream again. I was digging for hours… Though, it’s not easy to tell time in a dream. It could have been days. Shovelful after shovelful of dirt I moved ever closer to the surface. My clothes were drenched in sweat and I peeled off each layer, burying the clothes behind me as I dug further and further, never coming close to reaching the end of wherever it was I was going. With each pile...

“I remember floating weightlessly through the blackness, drifting like a feather through the darkness of nonexistence, blind and deaf in the void, for what felt like an eternity. There was no pain. No sound. No light. Then gradually, slowly, the blackness faded away.” Written By: CarlB1961- https://www.r-ddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/vap7ar/i_had_a_neardeath_experience_when_i_was_fifteen_i/   00:00...

"It was around seven when I entered the small bar & grill. Above the bar were two flat-screens, one showed some sporting event and the other, the news. I watched as a picture of a young woman with long red hair popped up on the screen. She had been missing for over a month and was last seen with her friends, hiking in the forest just outside of town. She was just one of the ten missing person...

“Descent into endarkenment isn't a gradual decline. It's a steep stumble into a shapeless, formless ravine, one that's swallowed you up before you even realize you've lost your balance. It reached out to those going nowhere from The Movement, and by the time they know they've joined, they're already pendulum-sway striding in time with the rest. There were seven of them in the street by the park ga...

“The following documents have been compiled together in an attempt to present a clearer picture of the unusual events leading to the abandonment of Stevensville, Colorado on July 18, 1987. The official explanation of the town's evacuation is an underground coal fire caused due to an unusually destructive and highly localized earthquake. With this evidence, I hope to change that perception.” Writte...

“"I think it's time you stick up for yourself Larson. Do you really want to be a punching bag for the rest of your life?" I looked at my reflection, now with a dismal look across my face and I finally responded "What would I be able to do about Vinny and his goons? They're bigger, stronger, and tougher than me, and I'm just a small weak nerd who doesn't have anyone to help." "I can help you Larson...

“I seek truth because I can’t stand the idea of being ignorant, and it’s nearly caused my death on several occasions. It has also revealed to me answers to questions I didn’t know I had, and some I wish I could forget.” Written By: 4ShotPastas- https://www.r-ddit.com/user/4ShotBot/   00:00 Part 1- https://www.r-ddit.com/r/MrCreepyPasta/comments/now7wn/the_other_edge_of_the_blade_part_1/   20:40 Pa...

"It was tough… For months I lived in pure darkness. I can’t honestly remember what happened back then. My mind was clouded. I organized the funeral with my best friend and after that… I was just alone. I went to work, came home, made dinner, played video games and drank until I could barely stand on my feet anymore. My friends were worried but frankly, I couldn’t give a damn. I couldn’t give a dam...

“I sat up in bed. Though the voice had spoken softly, I could almost hear it echoing through the bedroom, remnants of it clinging to the walls like cobwebs of sound, and I wondered if in fact I had dreamed what I had heard or if it had been spoken in the waking world, rousing me from sleep. But the room was still and dark and empty of anything, or anyone, unusual.” Their short story collection- ht...
