Imagine this: you’re 6 years old, visiting your great-aunt’s home for the first time. Everything is going smoothly, milk and cookies, a friendly little dog. But the you see it: at the end of a dark hallway, there’s a creepy painting of a sad clown. It haunts me to this day.
After that traumatic experience, I discovered that she wasn’t the only person who had such a peculiar taste in art. And what about Stephen King's 'IT'? I think the book and the miniseries were responsible for giving an entire generation coulrophobia.
But there's more. TikTok user nostalgictnr sparked a viral conversation after asking what people saw at someone else's house that made them never want to go back. The post got more than 330k likes and 7k comments, so perhaps Hollywood will adapt some of these stories too.

My coworker said her boyfriend was coming back in town and she wanted my husband and I to come over for a dinner date to met him, turned out it was my brother-in-law. I pulled her aside and my husband pulled him aside.

Years ago I was at my ex’s apartment and I was completely alone was getting ready to leave, went upstairs (the apartment has 2 floors and 2 exit doors, I had things upstairs) to get the last of my things, heard footsteps coming up the stairs I grabbed the last of my things so fast and bolted out of the fire escape door up top and never went back 😭 normally these paranormal things don’t scare me but whatever that was had bad intentions and scared the absolute life out of me to the point I felt sick. I bolted from the fire escape and down the rest of the stairs as was too scared to look back up at the door I’d exited from it was absolutely terrifying. Whatever it was had bad intentions

Cat hair on dishes that were drying on a dish rack. They let their cats jump on the counters and tables. I didn't stay for dinner.

not sure if you’ll all believe me, but when I was around 20-ish, my coworker invited me to her older sister’s birthday party. she told me that if I didn’t go, they wouldn’t celebrate it and ofc, I felt guilty (not even thinking why I didn’t question why the birthday party apparently wouldn’t push through without me) so even though it was a 2–3 hour bus ride, I still went with her along with our other workmates. the road to their house was already creepy. we had to walk through a rice field before we could even reach their place and when we finally got there it was this closed-off community where their whole family lived (uncles, aunts, grandma, cousins) we went straight into their house and the moment I walked in I smelled this foul smell. it smelled like chicken p**p, d**d fish basically every fishy, rotten smell you could imagine. but even I have a very sensitive sense of smell I still went inside politely and greeted her sister. I noticed that we were the only ones there but I also didn’t question why we were the only guests when it was supposedly her sister’s birthday🤦♀️my co-worker said “her sister don’t have any friends” so I just sat on the couch and waited for dinner. the dinner came and the older sister and my coworker kept telling me to eat first. i was so clueless as to why, but they were standing behind me while I was seated so I just went ahead and ate. after dinner, we went back to the living room to rest. the older sister’s bedroom was right next to it and the door was slightly open. out of my curiosity, i peeked inside and saw candles first and because I have such a sensitive sense of smell, I immediately realized that the horrible smell was coming from that room and then I saw some skulls after that. when the older sister noticed that I was looking inside she immediately shut the door. after that I got VERY sick, I didn’t wanna leave the house and was so scared someone’s coming to get me, eventually I went to a faith healer who told me that what I had actually gone to was supposedly a ritual and not a birthday party and that the older sister was a witch. after that experience, I never ate at anyone else’s house again.
