We often think that gut-wrenching and chilling situations only happen in movies, yet real life can bring even more thrilling scenarios than any work of fiction. Some of these creepy events can have closure, but many remain unexplained forever, making them all the more astonishing. In this article, we share a mix of thrilling and spine-tingling stories that will make your heart beat much faster.<\/p>\n

Story 1<\/strong><\/h1>\n

The night before my best friend, 16, vanished, she handed me $5 and said, \u201cI owe you money. Take this bill!\u201d It felt random, but I put it in my jar without looking twice. 3 weeks later, I suddenly remembered and opened the jar. When I examined the bill, my blood ran cold. She had marked it with a tiny handwritten message. I looked closely to read it and I froze: there was a message in blue ink that said: \u201cNo matter what happens, you will stay in my heart.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Chills ran down my spine. It could\u2019ve been a simple note between friends, but the timing felt eerie. I rushed to the police station to show them, but it didn\u2019t go anywhere. It\u2019s been 10 years, and though my friend was never found, not a single day goes by without me thinking about that bill, wondering if it held a deeper meaning.<\/p>\n

Story 2<\/strong><\/h1>\n

When I was a kid (about 13), we lived in a two-story house. I don\u2019t remember what I was doing, but I heard my dad calling me from the room upstairs. I called back and received no answer. As I walked to the stairway, I happened to look out into our driveway and saw that the truck was gone and my dad wasn\u2019t home.
\nI still don\u2019t know what called for me that day, but it wasn\u2019t my father.

Story 4<\/strong><\/h1>\n

A few years ago, when I was in my early teens, I had a dream of a man on a beach flying a kite with two dogs running around him. A month later, while on holiday in France, we were on a beach, and I looked up to see the same man flying the same kite with the same dogs. Everything went cold, even though it was 30 degrees. It was one of the weirdest experiences ever.

Story 5<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Our apartment has high ceilings, so we got an eight-foot, bright neon yellow pole to change lightbulbs. Last week, the pole disappeared.
\nSeriously, we cannot find an eight-foot, bright yellow pole in our tiny apartment. We are deeply disturbed by this. \u00a9 rogueleaderr \/ Reddit<\/p>\n

Story 6<\/strong><\/h1>\n

I stayed in a hotel alone during a business trip. I hung a towel on my right hand as I proceeded to wash my face at the sink. When I finished, my left hand reached out to grab the towel, only to touch the skin. I wheeled around and saw that the towel was hung behind the door instead.

Story 7<\/strong><\/h1>\n

I was visiting my grandfather\u2019s grave for the first time, and as I approached it, a golden retriever appeared out of nowhere. He sat with me as I sat next to the grave, his head resting on my knee. As I was leaving, I turned around, and the dog had disappeared.
\nRationally speaking, I know that it was just a dog, not connected to my grandfather at all, but part of me still likes to think that he came to say goodbye to me that day.

Story 8<\/strong><\/h1>\n

A couple of years ago, I woke up in the middle of the night and decided to go downstairs to get a drink. I found my eight-year-old brother staring down the sink drain, and when I asked him what he was doing, he just said, \u201cThey\u2019re coming.\u201d He was sleepwalking, so I took him back up to bed.

Story 9<\/strong><\/h1>\n

I had what I thought was a lucid dream where I basically watched some figure in my dark room look through my bookshelf, pat me on the head, and leave. I woke up to the news from my flatmates that someone had entered our house through the unlocked back door during the night\u2026 That\u2019s the day I decided to invest in a lock for my bedroom. \u00a9 Unknown author \/ Reddit<\/p>\n

Story 10<\/strong><\/h1>\n

My phone is a Droid, and to unlock it from sleep mode, you must push the power button and slide the lock across the screen. I put my phone in sleep mode, placed it on my bed, and went to brush my teeth. While brushing, I decided to determine my top five drummers of all time for some reason. I was trying to decide which position to rank John Bonham. My thought process was, \u201cWell, the drum part in \u2019Good Times Bad Times\u2019 is awesome.\u201d
\nAfter brushing, I went back to my room, and my phone was blaring \u201cGood Times Bad Times\u201d on Pandora. I can\u2019t explain it. \u00a9 Notmychairnotmyprobz \/ Reddit<\/p>\n

Story 11<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Once, I went to phone my grandparents but couldn\u2019t remember whether the last digit in the number was 7 or 8. I figured, what the heck, and guessed. Anyway, I picked the wrong one, and some guy who wasn\u2019t my grandpa picked up. I apologized and said I had the wrong number. He said, \u201cIs that (my name)?\u201d A bit creeped out, I replied, \u201c\u2026yes? Who is this?\u201d He just laughed and said, \u201cYou don\u2019t recognize my voice, do you?\u201d I froze for about a minute before saying goodbye and hanging up. To this day, I have no idea who he was or how he knew me.

Story 13<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Once, when I was home alone, I woke up in the middle of the night with a bloody nose. I walked over to the tissues and garbage and ended up filling the entire bin with bloody tissues before returning to bed. In the morning, I woke up to find the bin empty. I figured it must have just been a dream and that I hadn\u2019t had a nosebleed. The catch? As I walked into the bathroom and began to wash my face\u2026
\n\u2026my nose started bleeding. \u00a9 Unknown author \/ Reddit<\/p>\n

Story 14<\/strong><\/h1>\n

I was changing in my room when I was 16 and saw a flash in my window. Thought nothing of it until I realized it wasn\u2019t raining. A week or so later, I woke up to the unmistakable sound of breathing at my window. When I called out, I could hear them running and jumping over my gate. Thought maybe I was just crazy until my mom confirmed she had also heard weird noises from the backyard. We moved a month later. To this day, I am not sure who it was.
