Sometimes I see the garbage man come around at night and he comes during the day on Mondays. I was driveing home once and it was 12:30 past midnight and I saw a squarrel sprint across the street. Road kill happens during the night usually around me. And someones sprinkler was on at night which is rather strange. One time I saw for no apparent reason one of my neighbors were flicking his porch light off and on for at least a half hour.

And then one time we had these mushrooms in my yard and this happened at night because I noticed them in the morning when I was getting the paper. The tops of these mushrooms were completely upside down. In other words the bottom of these mushrooms (you know the gills of the mushrooms) were faceing up and what is normally the mushroom head was now the bottom. Odd, it was like they completely turned inside out at night!

Yep strange things go bump in the night around me

I've seen some evil-looking demonic thing at the foot of my bed before. Scared me to death! I was half asleep though, so it could've been my subconcious.....but I wouldn't think something that scary would come from my own mind!

Do you want to hear something really scary....... (I'm presuming you're saying yes. If you're not..........I'll say anyway)

I was in me bed one night, and then suddenly I woke up. I tuned my light on and looked at my watch and it said it was 2. 30. I noticed, across the room, my playstation was turned on, I went over to it and turned it off and looked inside, but there wasn't a cd in there. As I made my way down stairs to get myself a drink, I heard some kinda whispering in the kitchen. I turned all the lights on downstairs, but I couldn't see anything and the whispering stopped. I couldn't hear the words (or whatever) they were saying. So I just grabbed my water and went back to bed turning all the lights back off. As I got back into my bedroom, I climbed back into bed, then noticed that my playstation was turned back on, so I turned my bedroom light back on, then as I looked over, the top of the playstation was open and there was a game inside it (Abe's oddysee if you want to know). I closed it and turned it off, then I heard the same whispering coming from outside, I looked out my window, but all I saw was two shadows running away laughing.

Bah, that's not even scary. I'm more scared when I see myself in the mirror. Especially in the mornings... That's scary I say!

That's nothing. The worst thing I have ever experienced, was when I was down in the kitchen. I heard a breathing noise, and other wierd sonds. So I went through to the dining room, but there wasn't anything, so I went back and stood in the doorway facing in towards the dining room.

But as I was doing that, the door behind me got hit by something. But it wasn't me, and nothing else had moved. So I just decided to get what I needed, and respectfully leave.

When I walked back in to the front room, everything, bar none, was floating about 3 or 4 millimeters above the ground. I didn't notice it at first, until I got on to my computer and put my hand on the mouse.

It was moving about frictionlessly, like it wasn't even on the mouse mat. So I layed my head down on the desk and moved the mouse around a bit. Only to notice it floating.

This scared the LIFE out of me. I felt a really evil presence like I have never felt anything before. I knew there was something there that could not be explained. So I go hold of all the bibles, crucifixes and holy charms I could find and hung them all on the doorknob of my bedroom, and layed the bibles at the base of the door.

There was a loud THUD! and the entire house shook. It felt like the fist of satan himself and struck the ground. That was when I heard everything downstairs in the front room drop back down to the ground.

Then like magic all my fear, and my feeling of a presence, just left. It was the most increadible thing that has happened to me so far. It was like after the thud, all my confidence came back, and I felt like I could just freely walk back in to the front room again.

Very strange.

Whoa ... that's scary Death! It's probably going to make my story seem really lame now, but it freaked me out at the time.

Okay, well it was last year when we were on the OddTour in the US, and we got back from travelling around and to Pilot's house (I don't really want to talk about him, but it's part of the story). So anyways, it was too late to sleep in his sister's room like I had been doing, so I took the couch/sofa in the rumpus room. I already was a bit on edge, cause the night before we had stayed at this town at the end of route 666 which was the creepiest town I'd ever been too (pitch black and really eerie), and I was totally scared to go to sleep that night too.

Anyway, I kind of couldn't get to sleep this night either, and (I know this sounds childish), I kept a lamp on as I was scared to go to sleep. I also made sure I faced the backrest of the sofa so that I didn't have to look out at the room. I eventually dozed off but I kept waking up as I heard some noises, like rustling. Then one time I woke up becaue I felt something brush up against my neck. I sat up straight away, but nothing was around. I was pretty scared.

Anyways, the next morning I found out there were some kittens in the room too. But I have cats, and this brushing didn't feel anything like a cat, and if it was, I would have seen it when I sat up. Also the kittens were too tiny to be able to get on the couch. But the noises were likely explained by being the kittens moving.

The next evening, Pilot and I were at his computer, and he said did I touch him, and I didn't. And he said he could feel some kind of presence too and said he could see something faint (I don't know if that's true or not, Pilot would say lots of stuff that is questionable as some OWF members would know). We spoke to his mom and she said she had seen things in their house too.

So until we left the US, I was always uneasy about going to sleep in that house, even though I was in a different room after that.

I don't know if it was the uneasiness of the weird place from the night before that got to my mind, or whether it was something more. As we had also visited a ghost town that day, so if something was there it may have followed us or something strange like that. Regardless of whether it was something supernatural, or just my mind playing tricks on me, it was still very scary.

Wow Abe Babe that is scary especially since you were on the Oddtour then and thousands of miles away from your own home and you were here in the U.S. I would too feel uneasy and a little home sick if I was in that situation like that. I mean your in a different house with people you know from being online with but now in person which can be a very scary situation. And your out west in the U.S which can be a very strange place. Even though I never been out in the western United States I hear of all kinds of wierd stories like that takeing place out there in Navada and Arizona and New Mexico. And then going into that town on route 666 which so happens to be the devils number. Yea that can be scary!

That is so freaky, Death! I also have another strange story to share, but it's kinda long, so I'll only tell if you guys wish to know!

I had a scary experience once when I was in my bedroom back home.

It was really dark, but you can see the streetlights reflected in through the window. I couldn't sleep, and I felt this breeze, and I don't know why, but I had chills.

Then I realised I can see something moving in my room through the shadows, so I got up. I was really freaked out, and I noticed this shadow was just looking at me, so I went a bit hyper... I wanted to get out of the door to turn the light on, the shadow came towards me and then...

Bam. Bumped my head into the wall... more accurately the lightswitch, and realised it was me. Just literally me.... I was getting all freaked out by my own shadow! Was relieved, but gawd, I felt like an idiot.
