12. A stranger attempted to break into my house
I was living in Fort Wayne, IN for a short time and the house I stayed in was on the outskirts of the main city – set way back on a dirt road in farmville. The house is over 200 years old and I would routinely freak myself out because of the age, location, and my only other roommates were 2 cats. Anyways, During one of the coldest nights in January (-15 F.) I heard someone frantically ringing my doorbell at 2:30-3 AM. Slowly approaching the door to get a glimpse of my unexpected company before they realized I could see them. Suddenly I heard them thump across the wooden, wrap around deck leading up to the front door and make their way to the big glass side door…. I heard a moan/groan… I heard someone jiggle the door knob… By this time I am calling the cops and cowering in my room with my pistol drawn. During the 25 minutes it took for the cops to make their way up there to investigate, I could hear and see the shadows of people outside each window, trying each one to see if it slid open. When the cops arrived, they walked around the house and only identified one set of footprints in the snow… and one set of drag marks – also they could identify where and when the person being dragged was “seated” down in the snow at various entry points while the other guy was checking for a way in. Moved shortly after – not because of the attempted entry but because Fort Wayne, IN is a terrible place to live.
13. She said something beyond creepy before dropping dead
This story is not mine, it’s my grandfather’s.
Backstory: This takes place in West Virginia in the 20’s. My grandpa is the youngest of 9 and his family is very poor. They all live in a one room house.
My grandpa’s sister suddenly got sick and quickly fell into a coma. They say she had a fever and would shake and even sit up in the middle of the night even though she was not conscious. She got progressively worse over the next few days and needed some sort of help. My grandpa and his oldest sister Glenna stayed behind while the rest of the family went to the neighbors house 10 miles down the road for some food and medicine. As soon as the family got home that night their mom went to the sister’s bed and started to put a cold cloth on her head. Immediately her eyes flew open for the first time in days and she looked her mother right in the eyes and said, “The lord wants Glenna.” She fell back and twitched before going back into unconsciousness. The next morning Glenna and the sister had died. The younger sister died from the fever, and Glenna died from unknown causes.
14. I’m pretty sure I heard a skin walker
Hunting with father in law. It’s well before sun up (maybe 5am), and we hiked to a patch of trees and sat down, him maybe 70 yards south of me- with me facing out into a clearing. He had a flashlight and I didn’t have one on me at the time. It was so dark you couldn’t see a hand in front of your face.
After about 20 minutes, I hear something really big walking maybe 10 yards in front of me. From the sound of the leaves/branches braking, it sounded human sized. It startled me and I loudly call for my father in law to turn on the flashlight. Right in front of me (where the noise was coming from), I hear his voice say “Naah it’s cool.”
The noise happened again about 10 minutes later and I called out to him, assuming it was him making the noise. No response, so I made my way over to his camp and asked him if he had just walked near me. He said he hadn’t gotten up the whole time, and was confused why I would have heard his voice.
