Here are a couple that are a little scarier

Whether you believe in ghosts or not, it's tough not to get freaked out when you're alone and you hear something bump in the night or even hear a voice.
The stories below will freak you out so it's best to read these with someone.
​Preferably a friend and not a stranger you've decided to creep up behind on the street.

The Cell Phone
A couple of months ago, my friend's cousin (a single mother) bought a new cell phone.
After a long day of work, she came home, placed her phone on the counter, and went watch to TV; her son came to her and asked if he could play with her new phone.
She told him not to call anyone or mess with text messages, and he agreed.
At around 11:20, she was drowsy, so she decided to tuck her son in and go to bed.
She walked to his room and saw that he wasn't there.
She then ran over to her room to find him sleeping on her bed with the phone in his hand.


Relieved, she picked her phone back up from his hand to inspect it.
Browsing through it, she noticed only minor changes such as a new background, banner, etc., but then she opened up her saved pictures.
She began deleting the pictures he had taken, until only one new picture remained.
When she first saw it, she was in disbelief.
It was her son sleeping on her bed, but the picture was taken by someone else above him... and it showed the left half of an elderly woman's face.

Ghost Bro
​ My house was built in 1904. It is a single family home, wood frame setting on a concrete block foundation.
I have been living here for about 12 years.
Of all the weird things that my siblings and me have seen or heard in this house this one event is my favorite.
This happened to my brother.
About ten years ago my brother and his best friends had started a garage band playing mostly "Spanish rock," alternative music but in Spanish.
His friends could only get together on Sunday afternoons.
They would practice into the early evening, and they would usually call it quits by 8 pm.
This was the time I usually showed up and went to bed, cause I worked the graveyard shift. This happened in late fall, so the days were getting shorter, they had just finished a long session when the decision to head to someone else house came about.
My brother handed his car keys to his buddy so they could load up the equipment. Everyone had filed out of the basement, but the tricky part was that they needed to walk all the way to the back of the basement, up the back stairs, through the kitchen doorway, down the hall into the living room and out into the front porch.
Everyone was outside sitting in my brother's truck waiting for him.
My brother was walking up the back stairs when he remembered that he had left his pancakes in a to go container sitting on a speaker in the basement.
He made the decision to go back.
Now the basement is not clean, with full sight lines, there had been partitions made, and the boiler and main heating unit are right smack in the middle.
So after my brother walks back, he is about to retrieve his food container, when out of the corner of his eye he sees it.
It is a shadowy figure, right at his peripheral vision, this feeling of dread and uneasiness washed over my brother.
We had been taught that if you are in the presence of a spirit or ghost and you felt a bad vibe, to say quick prayer or to cuss at it.
My brother chose the latter, he basically just told it "hey fu** you, I don't have time for this sh*t".
My brother started to walk to the back of the basement and briskly up the stairs, closing doors and turning off lights as he was walking out.
The last light switch is on the opposite side of the front door...luckily the door was open and the light from the street lamp was flooding the living room with its amber light.
My brother said he felt something at his back, but at no point did he turn around.
As he flicked the last switch the living room went dark, as did rest of the house.
As he stepped out he pulled on the door closing it behind him, still holding his food container in one hand he jogged down the few porch steps.
He walked towards the front gate...our house resides far from the main street, essentially having a large front yard but no rear garage.
As he closed the gap between himself and his friend-laden truck he kind of smiled and thought things over in his head, mad at himself for spooking out when there was no reason. He climbed into the drivers side of the truck, putting on his seat belt and getting ready to pull out of the parking spot directly in front of the house, when one of his friends asked " Hey wait what about your brother, isn't he coming with us?
" My brother answered, "What do you mean?
He went to work early tonight, he is already gone, do you see his car anywhere?"

​
The next question they asked "So then who was walking behind you when you were leaving the house? "

With Halloween just around the corner, it's time to delve into the dark, the eerie, and the unsettling.
What better time to celebrate the scariest holiday of the year other than 12 am on a chilly night?
Below are a handful of unsettling stories, some true, some fabricated.
If you haven't been scared yet, it's time to get rolling.
​Grab a blanket and a hot drink and dive into these deliciously spooky stories, and hope a monster doesn't grab your feet!

Mom averts danger

Forget monsters, people are terrifying.
This camping story from Reddit user Morenapkinspls will solidify that:
I've posted this on my other account.
Copying and pasting it here.
The scariest thing I've had happen while camping.
So I live in eastern Oregon, and my mom lives in western Oregon.
I went to visit her for the summer and she's very outdoorsy so we decided to take the 1 hour drive from her city to the coast.
We end up at this free camp site at the top of this hill (huge foot hills of the coastal mountains, about a 25 minute drive from the top where the campsite is to the bottom where the main road was) and we were the only campers there.
We relaxed for the rest of the day, made food, etc.
A truck full of men drive up the hill and talk with my mom (idk what about, wasn't suspicious at the time) and they leave us.
Fast forward to the middle of the night.
I wake up to my mom sitting straight up in the tent.
I wake easily so I heard her gasp and it woke me.
As soon as she saw I was awake she put her hand over my mouth because I was starting to ask her what's wrong.
It was dead silent and all of a sudden you hear footsteps RIGHT beside the tent.
The little flap that covers the zipper was even moving.
Thankfully my mom has quick wits and said very loudly, "Kenny grab the gun"
Kenny is my dad, although that doesn't matter, and mind you he was not there, just us girls like I previously said.
They left.
No harm was done.
​Thank the lord for my momma.
TL;DR: Two girls at a campsite alone, people outside tent in the middle of the night & my mom pulled some badassery.

​Ouija board knocks back

Reddit user ExcrementCranium wrote:
In high school my friends and I were messing around with a Ouija board one night.
We had done it before and nothing remarkable had ever happened.
We usually did it to try and scare each other or are girlfriends.
We all thought it was a joke.
That night there was no one else home except the 7 of us and we were all together around the board.
One of the girls there wanted to try it.
She had never done it before.
This time was different.
The board misspelled some of the words the same way every time.
It gave answers that seemed really historically accurate for our town (things we neither knew or cared about).
Long story short, the “spirit” claimed it was a 10 year old boy who had died on the property in the 1800s and was buried there too in an unmarked grave (my friends house was on a farm in the edge of town).
We were all a little freaked out because the board had never been so detailed and consistent. However, we were still skeptical and we were all assuming one of us was trying to scare the rest.
Finally, my friend asked if the spirit could do something to prove he was there with us.
It went to Yes and then spelled out k-n-o-c-k. Then the planchette stopped moving.
​We just all stared at it silently and then there was a rap-rap-rap on the window right next to us. The lights were on outside and there was absolutely no one out there.
We never touched that f-ing board again.

Forgotten memory

Redditor Call_Me_Egg shared this horrific tale:
Growing up, my bedroom was the only one that faced the front of the house/street. When I was about 8 or 9, I woke up to my dad calmly but firmly telling me to get up, go in the bathroom, and shut the door.
I was annoyed because I was half asleep, but I listened.
Apparently I was more tired than I realized, because I feel asleep on the bathroom floor. The next morning I asked my mom what happened.
She seemed oblivious and confused.
I looked at my dad like she was crazy, and I asked him why he had woken me up.
He denied doing it.
I was becoming frustrated to the point of tears, but I ultimately let it go.
Fast forward to college.
I was home one break, and I decided to ask again.
I had thought of that night off and on for years, and it still bothered me.
This time, my dad goes, "Ha! I was wondering if you even remembered that.
" Turns out that a lot of houses on our block were being vandalized and robbed all those years ago.
Someone had broken into the garage and was inside the house.
My room was partially over the garage.
My dad heard it happen and quietly got me to safety.
Police were called, the guy ran.
He was never caught, however, and my parents didn't want a terrified kid on their hands, so for years they pretended like nothing had ever happened.
​It wasn't supernatural, but it was unsettling for sure.

A Clockwork Orange-style break in

This story comes from Reddit user Joshsecond:
Not to me, but to my sister.
Her husband and her had just had their first child a few months prior.
My brother in law was working the graveyard shift at his job as my sister stayed home taking care of my nephew.
Around 2am, she heard loud knocking on her back door.
She went to go check it out and saw a lady banging on the door asking for my sister to let her in.
The lady told my sister that her husband had just beat her down the street and was looking for her.
My sister was hesitant to let her in since she had a newborn in the house and didn't want to interfere.
She told the lady that the best she could do was call the police for her.
The lady told my sister to not call the police and to let her in.
This is where my sister got suspicious.
She went to get her phone and called 911.
When she went back to the door, the lady was gone.
The police arrived a few minutes later and they told my sister that the same situation happened a few streets down.
Apparently the couple would do this act to get into peoples homes.
I'm sure this is very common but having it almost happen to my sister and my nephew just creeps me out.
Some real Clockwork Orange sh**

Phantom alarms

Reddit user 666_numberofthebeast shared this story about strange occurrences in their dad's home:
When I was in high school, I had a lot of these experiences.
At the house my dad lived in at the time (it was really old, built in the early 1800s) there were plenty of times I'd be sitting in the living room and DISTINCTLY hear the cabinets opening and closing in the kitchen.
It was just me and my dad that lived in the house, and you could clearly see when his bedroom door was shut and he was asleep, but still hear it.
Normally my dad worked 7-3 but occasionally worked a pm or overnight shift.
One night he was working until 11, I was 17 at the time.
Around 8 or so, I'm sitting in my room playing Borderlands, and think I hear footsteps coming from the living room (which was adjacent to my bedroom) and assume my dads home early.
Go back to playing Borderlands.
I keep hearing the steps so I pause the game and listen, and the footsteps are just slowly pacing back and forth between the living room and the kitchen, in a steady rhythm.
I laid in bed scared **itless, and actually counted the steps.
Every time it took 15 paces to the living room, 15 back to the kitchen.
Needless to say I did not fuck*** sleep that night.
Had another situation at my mom's house, about 2 years prior to this, out of nowhere my alarm clock would go off at midnight every night.
I assumed it was busted and got rid of it.
Fast forward 2 years, my mom gets another, brand new alarm clock for my room (also when I was 17).
Suddenly, alarm goes off at midnight.
I thought nothing of it, turned it off.
Happened again the next night, and then my sister Pointed out the old one I had that did it.
So I checked and made SURE no alarms were set, double checked at 11:56.
Sure enough, 4 minutes later my alarm goes off.
Freaked out I threw it out.
That next night was my dad's night to have me, I had a buddy of mine over and my dad was working that night.
He left for work around 2am, and my friend had brought over an iPod dock to listen to music on. Didn't have the clock set or anything, my friend knew nothing of the last couple nights so I knew he wasn't just messing with me.
So about 2 minutes after my dad leaves, we hear an alarm clock coming from my room...I went in, and you know how if you just plug in a clock without setting it, the numbers just blink on and off?
Well it was doing that, as soon as I picked it up, the clock set itself to 12:00 and then just turned off by itself.
So...yeah, f*** paranormal **it. I'm not religious at all but I am 100% convinced that it happens.
