There is probably no such person who in childhood did not listen, dying from fear under the covers, scary stories.
And, of course, we reassured ourselves that these were just fairy tales.
However, in real life there is also a place for strange events that we are unable to explain. Here are just a few of these creepy stories that are not just "horror stories":
1. In 1995, someone named Terry Cottle committed suicide by shooting himself in the head. His heart, as an organ donor, was transplanted to a 57-year-old man named Sonny Graham. However, Sonny did not know what fatal consequences this would lead to.
Sonny met Terry's widow to thank her for saving him, and immediately fell in love. They got married in 2004. After four years of marriage, Sonny repeated the fate of his "savior" - he shot himself.

2. In 1976, an employee of the Allen Showery hospital committed a brutal murder - he stabbed his employee Teresita Bass, and then burned her body. The investigators had little evidence of his involvement in the murder. In fact, Teresita herself was the only witness to the murder.
A year after the tragic events, another employee of the same hospital, Remi Chua, confessed that she saw the ghost of Teresita wandering the corridors of the building. Shortly thereafter, strange things began to happen to Remi. She sang songs that she did not know before, and wandered around the hospital, as if she were in a trance.
One evening, Remi spoke to her loved ones in the voice of Teresita and named her killer. She also revealed what items Showvery stole from her home. When the police searched the suspect's house, they did find things that had previously belonged to the victim. The man was forced to confess everything. Until now, no one can explain what happened to Remi, and how she managed to guess about the stolen values.
3. In 1973, a boy named Greg Garrett was playing in the backyard of his house in Anfield, Illinois, when he was unexpectedly attacked by something that did not fit the description of any animal known to science.
This is how the legend of the mystical monster - "Anfield horror" was born. Everyone who has ever encountered this creature described it the same way: three legs, one and a half meters in height, paws with huge claws like a Tyrannosaurus rex and sparkling red eyes that peeped out of the darkness and shone strangely.
4. Nobody wanted to believe Doris Bizer. She was a chronic alcoholic who abused her children because she herself was humiliated as a child. Everything changed when several researchers of the paranormal became eyewitnesses of Doris's struggle with certain "entities", which, according to the woman's assurances, constantly haunted her.
At first, the researchers were skeptical about Doris's story, but later they still agreed to watch her. Unexpectedly for everyone, Doris began cursing three invisible entities. Suddenly, an aura began to form around the woman. A mysterious green mist swirled around her. One of the researchers even lost consciousness. But subsequently, no one was able to explain what happened in the house of Doris Bizer.
5. When 18-year-old Karissa Glenn moved to England, she began to feel an invisible presence in her apartment in Cornwall. According to rumors, once a previous tenant hanged himself in it.
This was aggravated by the fact that the girl had cases of sleepwalking, and from the moment she moved she was haunted by the same nightmare - in a dream she saw herself hanged.
One day, after returning home from a party, Karissa went to bed and never woke up. She was later found in her own apartment, hanging from a scarf.
6. One night, journalist Brian Bethel was sitting in a car parked outside a local movie theater when two children approached him. They looked no more than ten years old, but Bethel, upon seeing them, experienced a sudden and inexplicable feeling of dread.
The children told him that they wanted to see a movie, but forgot their money at home. They asked Bethel to drive them home. The journalist looked at the children and was numb - their eyes were infinitely black. Stammering and defending himself, he began to start the car. Then the children screamed angrily: “We cannot enter if you do not allow! Let us in! But Brian hit the gas and drove away from there.
On his Internet blog, he shared this creepy story, and people from all over the world left comments in which they reported similar encounters with "demonic children."
