frick this thread. I've been reading the Nosleep & glitch in the matrix sub reddits for like 4 god damned hours & now I'm wide awake in my kitchen with the lights on eating chicken fingers paranoid as frick. 
On another note, read the post about Rose & the fricking orange in /nosleep if you really want to be creeped out.
Edit: ironically I'm drinking some god damned ORANGE juice as I typed that. frick this thread.

The ending to that story pissed me off
Posted on 12/25/13 at 7:13 am to Ellis Dee
This happened around 2005 or so.
I was in Boise, ID for like 3 days for work stuff. It was the night after Halloween and our second night there. 4 or 5 of us are bored and hanging out the small hotel bar and playing pool. It's like 1:30 or so and the bar is about to close but we decide we want to find something to eat. The bartender calls us a cab. By the time the guy finally shows up it's like 2 AM and only two of us are left there. The cab driver walks up and asks who called the cab. He's a tall skinny white dude with dyed black hair in his face and a big black jacket on. He looked a little off but we go with it. We ask to go to the nearest 24 hour diner type place. He says he knows the perfect place but that it's about 10 minutes away. As we're driving he has some Nine Inch Nails type music playing.
Pretty soon it feels like we are in the middle of nowhere on a two lane road. We start trying to make small talk. Asking about the city, how long he's been driving a cab, etc.... He keeps giving one word answers the whole time. At one point one of us asks something along the lines of "has anyone tried to pull any crazy shite in the cab while you're driving?" We were just kind of talking about the weird shite that happens on taxi cab confessions. I guess somehow in his warped mind he inteprets this as a threat. He turns up the music and starts speeding like crazy. Talking all sort of shite about how he's in control. He will end it all for all of us in a heartbeat with one jerk of the wheel. He's not scared of death, etc.....
At this point we're freaked the frick out and I'm at a loss as to what to say to chill him out. The more worked up he gets the less sense he's making and I'm starting to get that panicked feeling and trying to think if there's a way out by jumping out of the car or something.
Finally my friend just interrupts him and says "what's the story with the weed up here? Is it imported or grown locally or what because every time I come it's amazing!" . All of the sudden the guy slows down and relaxes and starts explaining all about the local weed like he's some expert. Like he totally flipped and was back to being normal. He acted fine the rest of the ride.
After we finished at the diner we called another cab company because we didn't want to risk being picked up by that lunatic again.
Not sure how the story translates but if was scary as hell for a couple of minutes there.

One time on the opening weekend of bow season I was slipping down a dry creek bed in Caddo Parish with my bow and at the time you couldn't carry a pistol for snakes so that was all I had.
I get to this part of the creek where it's probably ten feet deep with a sandy bottom and all covered in dead leaves and roots sticking out the sides. At eye level I see a copperhead about three feet away. Now this is not unanticipated but out of the corner of my eye amongst the roots I see another one so I freeze and just start looking around.
I spot another one on the opposite wall.
And another copperhead just a few feet in front of me in the leaves practically invisible.
And another.
And another.
All in all I could see six copperheads surrounding me in this creek bottom and I have no doubt there were more that I couldn't see.
Longest, slowest, most tense walk out of the woods ever.

Holy frick. I'm currently in the middle of reading "Woke up in Chicago". Very well done. Anyways, as I'm reading, my bathroom door in my bedroom slams shut. I have a window in there and it's a windy day, no big deal (although it did scare the crap out of me at first). After changing my shorts, I made sure to check the bathroom for burglars/demons, and this time FIRMLY close the door completely. 2 minutes later, same loud slam of the door. There is no way the wind could have turned the door handle, opened the door slightly, and then blew it shut. I will not be sleeping tonight.

That's what I got from it but I assume she is now dead, or one of them, since it's been a few months

I read it last night and went to bed at 2 a.m., and I didn't fall asleep til around 4:30 (and I normally knock out in like 10 minutes). Every little sound in the house that I heard freaked me out. 
Question about that forum: Do the people responding on the forum think it's real? It seemed like at the end everyone responded like they enjoyed the story, but while it was being posted message board-style, they were responding like it was real.

IDK, you obviously thought it was real!!!

On that forum everybody acts like the story is real. Questioning a story is not allowed

It's by far the best story in here IMHO
It was good, but the one titled "footsteps" and "baloons" and "friends", etc. is much better IMO because it could actually happen, unlike

I really liked the cave story
Posted on 12/25/13 at 7:34 pm to Dale Murphy
My dad and I were staying in the rocky mountains with a group of people for a bike ride and we registered late so the only place they could find for us was this really old cabin in the middle of nowhere. Right when we got there the place just felt odd. My dad came downstairs at night from the bathroom and asked me if I had just come upstairs. I hadn't. He said while he was in the bathroom he heard distinct footsteps and when he called my name to see if it was me the door flung open. He has never believed any of that kind of stuff and even he was pretty spooked. The next day we met some locals and told them where we were staying. They asked if anything strange had happened while were there because a couple of weeks before an old crazy man that apparently lived in the cabin for years died in there and they had been joking with each other that the place was probably haunted. They told us this before we mentioned anything about what happened.

That one was good, too.
I'd put the Chicago story about 4th or 5th on the list.
