    One night when I was at college I was in my room and I heard the last person go to bed.
    About half an hour later I was still awake and I heard the patio door slide open and somebody walk through the kitchen and into the hallway.
    Then my bedroom door opened and I was almost frozen in my bed.
    Then my they climbed into bed with me.
    I then realised it was my friend.

    Please tell us the friend was dead.

    Not that I want your friends to die, I just want it to be creepy and unnerving.

    I was at the supermarket self service till and I dropped a coin. If fell on the ground upright. And stayed standing. I'm regret not taking a pic ever since.

    No.

    I think he just wanted to talk about his love life.
    Same fella used enjoy drinking lemsip before going to bed.

    One night I was working alone in a small office. Directly across from my desk, about 5 metres away was a door that led to a stairway. This door had a pane of glass in it.

    I was working away on the computer, and I began to notice that a light in the stairway was flickering. This happened slowly for a few minutes. Then the light began to flash faster. I couldn’t take my eyes away from the door. Suddenly the light turned on completely. I half expected to see someone staring back at me from the pane of glass. After a while, the light turned off.

    I consider myself a logical person and I put the light flickering and being turned on to some loose wiring or something wrong with the bulb.

    It was only when I was finishing work about 2 hours after this happened, I had to go to a locker room at the top of the stairs. It was bright out. When I got to the top of the stairs, I decided to see if the light in the stairwell had been switch on.. No.. i pressed the switch causing the light to switch on.. I packed up and got out of the office as quick as I could!

    Probably not the most scariest story on here and maybe the reason for the light turning on despite the switch being off can be explained, but it did creep me out! I still do get a strange feeling now whenever I have to work alone there on a night.

    Speaking of lights reminds me of an incident that occurred when I was driving my then girlfriend home one night.

    I had a 3 door hatchback and not far from her house the interior light at the back (just inside the hatch) came on. When we got to her house I got out and tried to switch it off but no matter what I tried it stayed on - I switched it on and off several times, opened and closed the boot repeatedly but the light stayed on throughout.

    Drove home to my house, tried again and failed, and ditto the next day.

    Stayed like that for a few days until one day it somehow resolved itself.

    When I thought back on it I remembered that the light had come on either at or very close to a location on the road where there had been a double fatality (boyfriend and girlfriend) a year of two previously. The girl had been in the same year in school as my then girlfriend.

    Don't know about your situation but this might explain?


    'Once the account is closed due to non payment or cancellation by a family member, the phone number may be reused. In some cases, it may be reused within 30 days. There aren't enough phone numbers available for phone companies to retire them forever. Reuse of numbers can cause problems.'

    Something like, ‘I’m coming over later, do you need anything?’ :eek:

    I have these neighbours. A couple of years ago they had regular weekend long parties, yes I mean all weekend from Friday night to Sunday afternoon. Turns out the party neighbours were taking drugs and were caught out.
    Since then they have become eirily quiet. The only time I hear them is when I leave my place when they rush to the peephole in their door. I come home and it's so quiet until the moment I turn the key in my door and I hear a commotion from behind their door. I find it extremely creepy. This has been going on around a year. The door keeper is very odd and I hear him gasp whenever the shared hallway light which is movement activated is lit. They barely leave their own apartment and cover their faces when they do.
    Can you be haunted by the living?

    Beam me up Scotty.

    Last night, sadly my mother in law passed away and we received the news about 8pm. I went to bed at 9.30pm and read a book for a while with light on. When I turned the light off to sleep, I heard a whooshing sound in the room and thought it was the wind. When I got up I saw a bat flying around, which totally freaked me out! I got out of the room quick enough and told my wife who was downstairs.

    When we both went back up to investigate there was no sign of the bat again. The odd thing is that there were no windows open and no other obvious access into the room.

    I hope it's not the mother in law coming back to haunt me!

    Bit of an old bat, was she?

    Edited to add: no disrespect intended, rest in peace to the lady.

    no, but I'd say they're haunted by the Fear!
