Sometimes the most terrifying predators aren't monsters—they're people who want to become you. This is my true story about Melissa, the new girl who joined our friend group and slowly began stealing our identities, one memory at a time. It started innocently enough when Sarah invited her to trivia night. Melissa seemed perfectly normal—funny, smart, maybe a little too eager to fit in. But then came the little things that made my s...

Some childhood homes hold more than just memories—they hold secrets that follow you long after you've moved away. This is my true story of growing up in a house where the paranormal was just part of daily life. From the age of five, I knew something was wrong with our ordinary suburban home. It started with whispers in the night—soft voices calling my name when everyone was asleep. Then came the footsteps pacing the hallway, the s...

I don't want any details of this story changed or names tweaked. It's my truth and it's the moment that changed my life. One second I was reaching for a handhold on the rock face, and the next I was falling twenty-five feet toward jagged granite rocks below. Time slowed down in that strange way it does during catastrophe, and I had enough presence of mind to think, "This is it. This is how I die." This is my true story of a rock ...

You want to know why I quit working at the city morgue? This story will mess with your head for weeks. I thought working the night shift at the morgue would be easy money. Dead people don't complain, right? Wrong. So fucking wrong. What started as strange little things—tools moved overnight, body bags mysteriously unzipped—quickly escalated into a nightmare that made me question everything I thought I knew about death. The hummin...

What happens when your toddler starts describing people who aren't there? This spine-chilling true story follows my son Tommy, who began seeing terrifying supernatural figures in our home from age three—including a man with no eyes and a crying lady dressed in black.

The thing about stalking is it creeps up on you slowly, like a shadow growing longer each day. I didn't realize what was happening to me... until it was almost too late. This is my true stalker horror story—a terrifying real-life experience that turned my safe haven into a prison of fear. What started as strange coincidences and odd feelings gradually escalated into a nightmare that consumed my daily life. Stalking isn't just wha...

Sometimes places are off-limits for a reason. The old Miller house on the edge of town was one of those places—abandoned, decaying, and wrapped in decades of dark rumors. We'd all heard the stories growing up. Whispers about what happened in that house, about the family who disappeared, about the strange shadows that moved through the gables long after sunset. But curiosity has a way of overcoming fear, especially when you're youn...
