We live in a weird world.

And this world is filled with odd things that happen that we can’t explain…but I guess that’s part of the fun, right?!?!

What’s the strangest thing you’ve ever seen that you can’t explain?

Let’s see how AskReddit users responded to that question.

1. Missing time.

“I was around 6 and on Wednesday evening I went to bed. I woke up and it was Friday.

I remember asking my mom why is it Friday when yesterday it was Wednesday. She said yesterday was Thursday, obviously.

I asked her what I did on Thursday because the last thing I remember is going to sleep on Wednesday. She named some activities and I remembered none of that. I never found out why I don’t remember the Thursday.”

2. Huh?

“When I was a kid I was awfully sick at one point- completely bed ridden. I was super hungry or something so I wanted to go get my mom, so I fell out of bed- but I couldn’t move after that.

I was just sorta worming around in agony. Until four,,, I want to say hippies? Tie-dye shirts, baggy bell-bottom pants, long hair. They just appeared in my room and I instinctively knew they were in a band? One of em was like, “yo,,, dude,,, your mom’s asleep. Want us to go get her?”

So I just mutely nodded, they disappeared, and a few minutes later my mom came up and checked on me.”

3. I know you!

“Doing some door-to-door work, I knocked onto a house I’d only driven past in a city on the other side of the world from where I grew up.

As I looked around the deck I was standing on, I noticed a particular window had a view through another window. I distinctly remembered all the details of what was outside the second window, even though I had never before seen it in my life. As the door opened, the lady standing at it gave a bewildered face that I must have mirrored.

The first thing she says is, “I know you!” I promise, there is no way our paths had previously crossed. As we got to talking, I was sharing a personal story, of which she finished the last details for me. I was stunned, and she said, “ I’m sure you’ve told me that before.”

I was tripping out, and ended coming back to the house a few times to just chat and see where or if anyone we both knew had crossed paths. To this day I still can’t explain it.”

4. It’s not time yet.

“My dad had a really complicated case of trombosis; it was bad that only two hospitals in the country were equipped to handle it.

Long story short he was in intensive care and had to be airlifted to the most famous hospital in Brazil; this process took the whole night. I remember my mom telling me at 6am that he was stable and the visitation time would be like 7 hours away, so I went to get some sleep.

I don’t remember specific details, just a very obvious loving figure that sounded just like my grandpa (his dad, already deceased) telling me to relax, it was not my father’s time.

When visiting time came, due to my good mood and spirit, my dad asked me if I understood what he had, since doc told us his chances of recovery were slim; then I told him about the dream he cried and hugged me. He spent over 10 days in ICU and over a month in recovery, but is healthy and happy today.

Never had my grandpa, or anyone else, visit me, before or since.”

5. Scary.

“I was driving away from a gas station. Out of nowhere a guy in a suit comes running up to my mini van and starts yanking the door.

As if he knew me, he began pleading “c”mon, LET ME IN.” Luckily my doors were locked, I asked him who the hell he was through my window. He looked genuinely surprised that I wouldn’t let him in. After I refused to let him in, his facial expression inverted; as if he just realized something horrible.

He let go of my car, said something to the effect of “you’re one of them, aren’t you?” Then he ran away behind the gas station and into the woods. Full suit and tie, nice shoes, extremely frantic in nature, zero explanation.

I’m praying it was some elaborate troll or m*th or something, because the look in that man’s eyes was pure terror when I didn’t let him in.”

6. I felt it…

“It wasn’t what I saw so much as felt.

I was on my way to Petersburg, a small island in Alaska but the runway was to foggy so I had to stay in Juneau at a hotel for the night. Anyway the next morning I was sleeping and had my hand dangling in between the bed and the wall and I swear on everything I felt something grab my hand.

It had a grip like a very firm handshake and it literally woke me up out of a dead sleep. I actually got up and checked under the bed and nothing was there. It was very weird.”

7. Spooky.

“My three year old daughter walked up to my husband one night and straight up said, ‘Grandpa’s dead.’

A few moments later we get a call from my husband’s sister saying that their father had passed away. Happened a few months back.

Still creeps me out.”

8. The meteor.

“So in 2013, I was with my buddy and his schizophrenic neighbor.

The neighbor suddenly acts like he just got hit with an energy wave, and he runs out into the yard. He starts dancing and chanting about, “The Meteor.”

He said that he felt it falling, and then with a final jerk, he said the meteor had exploded. At that same time, on the other side of the world, an enormous meteor exploded over Russia.

If you are wondering, no there was no advanced warning.

And yes, part of me does suspect that he somehow knew.”

9. The black square.

“Was driving home from work one afternoon with my brother and cousin in the car. As we were sitting in traffic I noticed high up in the sky and way out in the distance a small motionless black square.

I pointed it out and both my brother and my cousin spotted it quickly so I know it wasn’t in my head. It just remained still for about 45 minutes and then the sun had set and it was too dark to spot it any longer. It just stayed in the exact same spot the whole time and while it was really far away you could still tell it was a perfect square shape.

Once I got home I went online to see if there were any mentions of it anywhere and there was nothing. To this day I still think about it and wonder wtf I was looking at.”

10. What happened?

“I was taking a trip with my then-girlfriend and we had to cross the Hudson River to get to where we were going. There are only a handful of bridges across, and I know them all from having grown up in the area.

On that particular trip we were supposed to take The Bear Mountain Bridge, but I got off the wrong exit and passed it. We decided it wasn’t a big deal. The next bridge, The Newburgh-Beacon, was actually closer to where we were going.

It would just bring us over little bit past our destination, but not enough to really matter. So we kept on driving, not really paying specific attention to where we were since it was probably 20 – 30 mins until we got there.

Well, we never crossed the Newburgh-Beacon that day. We also never crossed the Bear Mountain. And we certainly didn’t drive an extra half an hour to the Mid Hudson or turn around and go back to the Tap. When we did take a minute to check where we were, and how close the bridge was, we found we were already on the other side of the river. No bridge, we were just already there.

So either there’s a secret tunnel somewhere under the river, we had our memories erased, or we found some kind of spatial rift somewhere in the Hudson Valley.”

11. In the dorm.

“I was an RA when I was in college. All the RAs would come back a week before the winter semester started for training, which meant no students were back in the dorms – we were the only ones in the building.

One night, I heard the door to my shared bathroom open. The sound of the doorknob turning woke me up, so I kind of groggily said my suite mate’s name (she would sometimes come through the bathroom to talk or ask me for advice). Then I realized – my suite mate was on an extended holiday in Italy, so no one should have been in our suite at all.

I immediately shot up and looked toward the bathroom door. It was almost pitch black in my room, but next to the bathroom door, I could see the perfect outline of a human face wearing a flat-brimmed hat – I couldn’t see the details of the face, but I could see shadows where the eyes, mouth, and nose would have been.

It was as if someone was standing next to the door, staring at me. I had no idea what to do – because no one was back in the dorms, I knew that the nearest RA was two floors away and wouldn’t hear me scream for help. I stared at the face for a few seconds (and it stared back), then I shifted slightly on the bed and it completely disappeared. I got up to check the door, and it had been closed the whole time.

It’s been almost 7 years and it still freaks me out when I think about it.”

12. Deep in the forest.

“When I was young, my parents and I relocated across the country to Maine.

We lived in a very small town and our house was old, beat up and on many acres deep in the forest. It had two stories, with the top story being the main level and the bottom story being the bedroom level. My bedroom had several large windows that looked out into the forest.

I don’t remember having curtains or blinds but I’m sure I must have, because my mother never forgot details like that when decorating my bedrooms as a child, but I must have left them open one night.

I remember waking up in darkness, with a faint glowing orb of light hovering just outside my window. I watched it in utter terror as it went slowly across one window, and then the next – before pausing, flashing briefly into my bedroom, before shifting into the third and final window and disappearing altogether. I was so upset by the ordeal that I went and woke my parents up, and my stepfather stormed the backyard with his gun in hand.

There was nothing and no sign of the strange orb.

My eyes are watering as I write this. Deep down, as an adult looking back, I realize that orb was anything but magic. It was someone’s flashlight.

It never happened again, but I’m still afraid of having window blinds open at night.”

13. Up in the air.

“Former Egyptian Airforce Mirage 2000 pilot here.

I was one of the “unlucky few” that got selected to serve their mandatory years as pilots, it was considered unlucky because you stayed in the army alot longer than soldiers and officers because of the amount of training that comes with flying a fighter jet.

Anyway fast forward 2 years I’m a fully trained mirage pilot though I don’t know much about dogfighting and fighter jet weapons as I didn’t take it on full time like I said this was mandatory service that everyone had to do, it’s just I was selected to be a pilot for some reason, I only flew like 6 times in the 3 and a half years I served.

Anyways picture this, it’s a pitch black night and I go out for patrol on the Red Sea border between Egypt and Saudi Arabia. My friend is commanded to patrol the border on Sinai and Israel (that’s usually the most actively patrolled border).

Anyway here I am flying in Egyptian airspace when an extremely bright light shone through the cockpit almost blinding me for a moment, it was so bright it got right through the tinting on the windows and my helmet, it was almost like that memory wiper in MIB it lasted at least a minute.

So just as I’m about to call this in to get a possible explanation the air tower guy starts frantically sort of shouting but not loudly like he’s talking really fast and in a very worried tone and I can’t hear him through the radio that well so I couldn’t tell what he was saying, I tuned into the frequency the other pilots were on and they were all just as shaken as me.

30 minutes later a calmer voice instructs us to all land immediately as there is an emergency being investigated by the more experienced pilots (dogfighters). So we land two at a time, I steer my plane into the hanger and I get out, everyone has this frightened look on their face eyes wide open, mouth shut and sort of lost.

Like you talk to them and they’re like “sorry what were you saying again?”, So I go straight to the base commander hoping for an explanation that puts my mind to ease, when I get there I find that he’s in his office on the phone shouting about unidentifiable aircrafts infiltrating Egyptian airspace and that’s when I really got scared.

I have finished my mandatory service years ago now and I’m currently studying law in Washington but that night I constantly think about.”

How about you?

What’s the weirdest thing you’ve seen that you just can’t explain?

Tell us your stories in the comments!

The post People Share the Strangest, Most Unexplainable Things They’ve Ever Seen appeared first on UberFacts.

A friend of mine swears that he was once driving down the street at night when suddenly he saw an airplane that was on fire fall from the sky and explode in the distance.

This was before cell phones, so he rushed home and turned on the TV expecting to see something about it on the news. And there was nothing. And he never heard anything about it.

Had he hallucinated? This happened over 20 years ago and he still talks about it…WEIRD.

Folks on AskReddit talked about the weirdest things they’ve experienced that they can’t explain.

1. Dad’s truck.

“My dad passed away in 1992. Among other things I inherited a 1980 Chevy LUV pickup.

It may have been through ignorance but I had looked high and low for 4 bolts that needed replaced on the U joint. They were special and shouldered.

I stopped everywhere looking for these bolts. Chevy nor Izusu had them. I was at my wits end as I had been looking for two months .

One day a buddy of mine and me stopped at a hamburger joint that had a parts store next to it. We got out and I said I am gonna check this parts store and i had one the bolts in my hand .

As we were walking to the store , a guy that I can only describe that looked like the Jesus your grandmother had a picture of on her wall walked by us and said howdy or some sh*t .

But here is what freaked me out…

He said, those look like they are U joint bolts for a Chevy LUV pickup . I bet you are having a heck of a time (yes he said heck) finding them . Come over here I think I have some in my truck .

He walked over to his truck looked in a 5 gallon bucket and handed me 4 perfect bolts exactly like I needed.

My jaw dropped. I tried to pay him or buy him a hamburger and he said no , just help someone else out if you get the chance . That was 28 years ago and I remember it like it was yesterday.”

2. Weirdo.

“For about 10 years a man would call my home, ask for me, and then ask me if my feet were ticklish.

This was 30 or so years ago – no caller ID or anything like that. I would engage him if my family was home. If I said my feet were ticklish he’d ask me to ask the person sitting closest to me to tickle them. He always hung up before we could ask questions to figure him out.

Sometimes he’d get me on a pay phone. Like, I’d be walking home from school and a pay phone would ring. It was always him.

Still don’t know who it was…”

3. Crazy!

“I had a dream one night that a former coworker (Friend 1), who I rarely interact with, was pregnant.

In the dream I was back at my old office and they were explaining to me that I was going to fill in for her. I was very alarmed and like “oh heck no, I left y’all last year and went to new place.” She came up and was very pregnant and was like “oh come on it’s just while I’m on leave.”

I told my husband because it was weird and we joked about how awful it would be for me to have gotten out of that workplace just to have to go back.

Maybe a week later I dreamed about a different friend (Friend 2) I rarely speak with being pregnant as well.

The next week I run into Friend 1 somewhere and joke about the funny dream I had where she was pregnant. She is like OMG tells me she is and they haven’t told ANYONE yet, that she’s waiting. I laugh it off and later tell my husband about it. He jokes and is like “didn’t you dream Friend 2 was pregnant, lol you should give her a call.”

It’s even funnier because Friend 2 is my age and like me has older children, we’re waaaay too old to be starting over. I laugh it off.

The next day, as an afterthought, I’m bored and driving a long distance, I call Friend 2 about the funny dream and my husband’s joke that I should call her.

Turns out she IS ALSO PREGNANT and they haven’t told anyone because they’re having ultrasounds and amniocentesis first due to her age and all.

Completely crazy!!”

4. Wow.

“Years ago, when my wife was pregnant with our second child and about to give birth, my Mom came to stay with us for a few days to help take care of our oldest child.

One early evening Mom asked for a pen, paper and an envelope. When I gave them to her she wrote on the paper, sealed it in the envelope and gave it to me, saying put this in your pocket and don’t open it. “You’ll know when,” she said.

Thirty minutes later my wife announced it was time to go to the hospital, she was in labor. So we did and about 9 hours later our second daughter was born at 3:45AM. She weighed 8 pounds, 11 ounces and was 20 inches long.

This being pre-cell phone days, I called my Mom from the hospital to tell her the news. She answered the phone and immediately said, “Before you say anything, open the envelope.” I did. It said:

Girl 3:45AM 8 lbs, 11 oz 20 inches

I kept that paper for years. When my Mom died, I went to our documents safe where we kept it, but it was gone.”

5. Premonition.

“A week before my twin brother died I was in the passenger side of the car and an awful thought with visuals that popped in my mind.

I was at his house and it was empty, his door was shut but I had an overwhelming feeling he was no longer alive. It was the first time I’ve cried over just a thought.

I also had him visit me in a dream after and ask where he was and he didn’t know he was dead yet I showed him his death certificate and all the paperwork my mom was filling out.

I can’t explain it but seeing that a week ahead helped me process his death better than my siblings and mom. His 10 yr is coming up in March and I’ve been trying to dream about him no luck.”

6. Was it a prank?

“Living in a dorm, no roommate.

Night before a two-hour open book final, I put my book in the middle of the floor so I’ll stumble over it on the way out. The floor has nothing else on it.

In the morning its gone. I look all over the room, can’t find it. I think I’m hysterically blind, so I feel over every inch of the floor with my hands. Nothing. I go get a cup of coffee and come back, still nothing. By now there’s only one hour for the test. I go any way and do the best I can.

Naturally when I get back the book is in the middle of the floor exactly where I put it .

Probably a prank, but how? I’m not that heavy a sleeper. Nobody took credit for it.”

7. What was that?

“My family used to travel between Utah and Nevada a few times a year when I was growing up and we often saw wildlife.

There’s one thing that still baffles all of us, though: It was in the middle of the day, on a long, hot, empty stretch of road.Myself, my mom, and a couple of my siblings saw something scurry across the road.

It looked like a huge egg (the size of an ostrich egg, maybe larger) with two skinny legs and feet poking out the bottom of it. We cannot figure out what it possibly could have been.”

8. Where did the time go?

“A friend and I were driving what would normally be a 3hr drive. A little way in, we hit the heaviest rain/lightning storm I’ve ever driven through.

I was driving about half the speed limit and could barely make out the car in front of us. When that car pulled over (clearly wasn’t confident driving in that weather) I drove on for about 15-20mins before also pulling over as we passed a small town. The rain eased off and we continued on our way.

When we got home, according to our phones/the wall clock in the house/the car clock – the trip had taken less than 2hrs. We had somehow shaved a whole hour off the trip by going almost half speed for most of the way.”

9. That’s random.

“I sneezed my back into place after being couch bound for nearly a year and half.

Within 15 minutes it felt like that year and a half was a distant memory.”

10. Unsettling.

“I was once standing in line at Target.

A mother and her (I guess) three year old were in front of me in the checkout lane. I never met them before in my life. The child was riding in the shopping cart and the mother went forward to better unload it.

The child looks dead at me, smiles, laughs and said my first name, very clearly, twice. I have an uncommon first name, which made it even stranger.’

11. This would terrify me.

“I once saw someone who looked and dressed exactly like me, with my mannerisms and posture, standing outside a pub I had visited only a week earlier around the same time in the evening.

He was finishing a smoke and went back inside a few seconds after I’d been able to notice and get a good look at him. I smoked at the time as well, so it was something I’d have been doing.

Not sure if I saw a glimpse of my own past from a third person perspective or what, or if I just have a twin somewhere in Dublin.”

12. The creature.

“My dad, sister and I all saw something that wasn’t an animal and wasn’t human. This was in winter 2015 in rural Saskatchewan.

We were driving and it ran out in front of us on the road. It was so fast it was a dark blur but we all agree we saw long gangly limbs like a deer but it had human looking “arms” and “legs”.

We still talk about it.”

Now we want to hear from you.

In the comments, please tell us about the strange things you’ve seen that you can’t explain.

Thanks in advance!

The post What’s the Weirdest Thing You’ve Seen That You Can’t Explain? Here’s What Folks Said. appeared first on UberFacts.

The world is full of unsolved mysteries that baffle even the most hardened skeptics out there.

Are ghosts to blame? Spirits? Some kind of energy we can’t comprehend?

None of us have those answers, but I think we can all agree that some things will always remain mysterious.

AskReddit users talked about strange things that they just can’t explain. Let’s take a look.

1. Shook.

“I am really not spiritual or have any belief in psychics, ghosts, mind-reading, fortune telling…any of that. But, only a couple weeks ago there was an exchange that shook me a bit.

I’d taken the train out to do a hiking trail and camp for a few days, finishing up in a town I’d only ever briefly visited once a couple years prior on bonfire night. As I made my way towards the station I was stopped by a perfectly ordinary looking middle aged woman.

“You don’t believe in souls” she said.

“What?”

“You don’t believe in souls. But you also know you lost yours”

“What do you mean.”

“You have absolutely no aura”

I started to walk away and she just raised her voice to shout after me.

“You had a procedure, a medical procedure, on your brain and your soul left.”

Of course it sounded like madwoman bullsh*t to anyone that could hear, but fifteen years ago when I was eighteen I had sixteen sessions of ECT. Being a large number of sessions in a short space of time at an young age, it left many difficult and long lasting negative effects on me that I still struggle with.

But one of the most pervasive feelings is what I have only ever been able to describe as whatever it was that made me me. Like the essence of me, my spark, had disappeared.

I never really knew how to put this feeling into any accurate words, so despite my lack of belief, I’d always described it as feeling like I’d had my soul removed.”

2. Still have nightmares…

“I was driving one night in a really foul mood and speeding. Like when I say speeding I mean at least 25 over the limit.

Anyway this car gets behind me and for some reason I can just tell it wasn’t a cop. It was a full tinted Chevy truck with weird lights on it (like comically large after market front headlights). Once it got behind me I got a really eerie feeling I can’t explain. Like my body just knew something was wrong.

Anyway I figured if it was a cop they would light me up for speeding but for some reason they just kept pace with me, also speeding themselves. So at this point I’m getting a little weirded out so I turn off the freeway and they follow me.

I turn into a gas station and get out. I figure if I’m going to get ax murdered at least the cameras will pick it up and give my family some closure. Something just didn’t sit right with me. I knew something was up.

As I’m getting out of my car the truck rolls it’s windows down. And what I saw still haunts me to this day. It was a heavily disfigured guy the only likes of which I can compare to that guy Rocky Dennis from the movie about the guy with a crazy disfigured head who falls for that girl who loves him for him and not the abomination that is his face.

And he starts to motion me with his finger like telling me to come closer. I don’t care if he was going to give me the winning powerball numbers there was no way in hell I was going to approach his car.

I bolt inside the gas station at this point my whole body is shaking. I try and tell the clerk what’s going on as they stare at me probably thinking I’m drunk or high off my *ss as my story doesn’t make any sense.

I go to look outside and the truck is gone.

I still have nightmares to this day.”

3. Guardian angel?

“Fall 2009 I was sick – like superrrrrr sick.

It was a few weeks before my amputation and I was battling a severe bone infection. I was hopped on all kinds of antibiotics (I had a PICC line and would dose my antibiotics through these little balls) and pain medication.

I’m a huge Yankee fan so my best friend got us tickets for the ALCS game at Yankee stadium. She pushed me around the stadium in a wheelchair with a sh*t ton of blankets on me (it was freezing) just to put a smile on my face.

My friend leaves our seats to go get some hotdogs and stuff. This is where it gets weird.

As soon as she leaves (to my recollection) an older Irish gentleman sits by me. He offers me some of his spiked hot chocolate, but I said no thanks and explained that I was on a lot of medication. We begin talking and I told to him what was going on with my life.

He asked if I was scared to have my leg amputated, and I told him that I was. I was really frightened of the unknown. He gave me some pretty valuable life advice and comforted me. He assured me that it would be fine. He told me that, “if you have to be an amputee, try to be the best d*mn amputee that there is!”

My friend comes back with food and asks who I was talking to. There’s no one next to me. I guess I must’ve hallucinated this but idk..it felt more like some kind of angel or being that came to me to let me know it would be okay.

I guess my guardian angel is an Irishman with spiked hot chocolate!”

4. The fish man.

“A tiny humanoid creature underwater.

To this day i still search the internet in hopes that what i saw was an actual type of fish but i still haven’t found anything. I was snorkeling at the age of 16 off the coast of Australia with my Dad. Seeing all the fish was so beautiful. My Dad drifted a little far from me but there was a reef protecting us from any large sharks so I wasn’t scared of snorkeling on my own.

I swam down towards the coral to get a closer look at a small octopus when something caught my eye. A human face. A human face with an eerie smile and big eyes. It was sort of “standing” casually leaning against the coral with a body about 4 inches tall and head no bigger than a grape. It resembled a naked human male but had gils by its neck and webbed feet. Smooth all over like a ken doll.

I stared at him. He stared at me. I stared back and tried to rationalize what i was seeing. I reached out to touch him/it and he casually evaded me by stepping to the side, all while his creepy smile remained. I could see my Dad has turned around and was swimming closer to me. So i called him over to see this crazy creature. The creature turned toward where my Dad was swimming over, seemed to notice him, then look back at me coyly.

Then it walked away. Like walked on its little webbed feet on the coral and disappeared down through a little whole on the rocks. I tried explaining to my Dad when he came over but he couldn’t explain anything like that either. He just said something about Aboriginal spirits and i shouldn’t mess with it.

I swear i think about that little fish man every day.”

5. Ghost story.

“When I was in my 20s in the early 1990s I had a car accident that kept me in hospital for about a year. It was a Catholic hospital and most of the nursing staff were nuns and besides the normal checks they regularly just stopped in to chat and see how I was doing.

Early one morning there was a knock and this nun came in that I hadn’t seen before and introduced herself as Sister Greta, a member of the nursing staff. She sat on the side of the bed and we spoke for a few minutes then she asked if she could say a prayer for me. She held my hand and said a prayer then wished me well and left.

About five minutes later there was another knock and one of the regular sisters came in to say hi. I remarked it was going to be a good day because I’d already had one visit from Sister Greta and now I was getting another one. She said there wasn’t a Sister Greta on the staff and there was only two sisters around, it being so early.

I pointed to the bed which clearly showed where she had been sitting and described her and the habit she had been wearing now getting a bit unnerved. The sister basically shrugged and bustled off.

She came back about half an hour later with a book about the hospital’s history and showed me a picture of some nuns from the 50s. Their habits were exactly the same as Sister Greta’s that I’d described. Turns out that patients regularly mentioned talking to nuns in old garb that definitely weren’t part of the current staff.

I never saw her again or anything similar while I was there… kinda freaky but not overly disturbing. I can’t really explain it but I guess it’s the sort of ghost story I’m okay with, if that’s what it was.”

6. Mystery man.

“I remember this vividly from when I was in elementary school.

My and 2 of my friends played football after school sometimes. The football field where we played was between a couple of open fields owned by farmers and on the other side a bit of wooded area, not as big as a forest but a small but densely packed wooded area about 100 meters away from the football field.

What happened was this, almost every time we would play there, we would see this man. The first time he was standing in the trees, not on the path between the trees, actually in the bushes. It was a man in a red and blue tracksuit and he was just staring at us. The first time we thought it was a friend of ours and we would call him and wave, but he never responded.

This happened almost every time. We also saw him in different places. One time he was just standing in one of the farmers fields, just looking at us. He was always there, always.

When I really freaked out was when I was playing with another friend. We would play army man in that wooded area. We picked up sticks and pretended we were soldiers completing missions. We even had a little base camp, we built a sort of safe house we called it. The thing every one has done as kids, build a hut.

We were just playing and sitting in the hut we build, when we heard footsteps on the path in the woods. We checked it out and just as we got out of the bushes, we just made out that it was that man in the tracksuit and he was running away. We followed him and there was a bend in the wooded area, we got around that bend and he just disappeared without a trace. The footsteps just stopped and he was gone.

The next day we returned to our hut and there were bits of food and cans on the floor. We never brought that type of food there, but we didn’t really think much of it. However a couple days later the hut was completely destroyed.

We asked one of our friends (he wasn’t involved in the earlier stuff and wasn’t there for the previous encounters) who lived next to the wooded area and he said that a man in a red and blue tracksuit destroyed the hut.

There were rumors that a homeless man was living in our hut, but it was never proven. Nobody actually saw him living there.

These type of encounters continued to occur for the following years, until the wooded area was cut and for the most part removed.

The last time I can remember that I saw him was about 2 years after the woods got removed. My room is in the attic of our house and looks out towards the football field, but in front of it is an old small building that the school uses for PE classes.

I remember that I was looking out of my attic window and see a man staring straight at me from the roof of that small building. I immediately recognized him, still wearing the same red and blue tracksuit. I kept looking at him until I got called downstairs. When I came back he was gone and that was the last time I saw him.

I know this sounds hard to believe maybe, but it was one of the creepiest things I’ve been through. In the end me and my friends wouldn’t even be surprised to see the man staring at us when we were playing football, it happened that often.”

7. Huh?

“Standing outside of a convenience store.

I saw two different cars park (about a minute or so apart) and go in the store. It was obvious the two didn’t know each other (at least it seemed).

After shopping, they each left in the other’s car. Still can’t explain it today without going down the CIA conspiracy route.”

8. Red light in the sky.

“Waterville, Washington in 2013.

Saw a red light in the sky that did not move in the way a normal airplane would. It eventually made its way to a three whitish lights formed into a triangular pattern.

It was unsettling.”

9. Double take!

“My friend and I drove past a car in the road going the opposite direction about 15 years ago.. still to this day, gun to our heads, we both saw a dog driving…sitting upright in the driver’s seat.

It took roughly 10 seconds to process what we saw, we then looked at each other and started yelling in disbelief. We’ve been buddies since second grade or earlier and this sighting was a long time ago during a period of time well after we both hand driving licenses and our own vehicles.

We still talk often and live on opposite sides of the country just about but every once in a while we will ask each other if we still remember that day and what we saw.. we laugh and reflect and are still 100% certain without out spec of doubt we saw a dog driving a car. All on its own.”

10. A sign.

“I had moved to Venice beach, CA about 8 years ago and it was the first time I had moved away from my home and family in PA.

After 4 months I hit a rough patch and had to sell my car to get back home. One night while trying to fall asleep I had a mild anxiety attack from over thinking my current situation at the time. Both of my roommates had left a few days prior so I had the apartment to myself for the last few days. During my mild anxiety attack I was talking to grandma who had recently passed away to ask for some help (note I have never been spiritual, and I identify as agnostic).

A little while later (early morning about 2am) I notice a flickering coming from my roommates room. I open the door to find a freshly lit candle. I did not light that candle.

As a child my grandma would always take me with her to church and my favorite part was getting to light a candle to say a prayer. Love you Nana.”

11. You should think twice.

“When I was younger I used to have this “troubled” friend. He had his brand new bmw we used to be bad boys and buy alcohol with fake IDs.

We were only 16 but we had a lot of fun just doing nothing, smoking weed drinking, dating girls, doing whip it’s. Think the movie mid 90s almost to a T. Well one time we got detained by the police we were just in the wrong area at the wrong time. I was very respectful to the police and my friend was not so much.

The female officer pulled me to the side and said “look kid, you seem like a respectful young man. Why are you hanging out with this kid? He’s bad news. I really think the next time you want to hang out with him. Think twice.”

So the following Friday he said he was going to pick me up and we were going to pick up some booze and hang out with these chicks. I told him unfortunately I can’t tonight. I have to stay in tonight. That night he was in a high speed chase and lost control of his vehicle and hit a curb, his car went straight into an apartment building and he died instantly.

Somehow, I ended up running into that police officer again a few weeks later. Which she made a joke that’s it not good if she keeps seeing me. I literally busted in to tears and just hugged her.

I feel like she saved my life. She seemed somewhat confused and I told her what happened.”
