"All The Other Nurses Turn White": 26 Unexplainable Things These Night Shift Workers Experienced

Not me, but a ex-coworker before me.

Context: We worked in a power plant, but the terrain is massive and it covers many acres. For that reason, we weren't at the generators, but in a separated Central area, with its proper kitchen and dining building, a football(soccer) 7-a-side field, and a Control Building. To get to the kitchen from control building, you NEED to cross the field.

Let's call him Leon. Leon was a very good electrician which sometimes doubled as a handyman who did more jobs. In this case, he was assistant for control room operator (which for night shift, made them and the boss (sometimes) the only 3 people awake in the whole terrain). For his break, he had to go to the kitchen to heat up his food, but all the way there crossing the football field he felt unease from the very beginning. Once in the building, he said he felt a very cold and uncomfortable breeze behind him, as he could hear someone calling for his name, most importantly, not screaming, but almost as if they were in the same building. The first time he called out for who was talking to him but when he heard his name a second time, this time claiming he heard like it was coming closer, he froze because no one could be calling out for him at that time. From his words, he could feel his skin crawling and goosebumps forming, and extremely unease, which is why he bolted out of there back to the control room, telling the operator his experience. The operstor insisted no one could have called out and he was imagining things, but he stiñl would refuse to go back tot he kitchen after that for the rest of the night, opting to rather eat cold food. After the fact he didnt dare go to the kitchen on his own for the next week or 2

That experience was way before I was working there, and he has kept the story so consistent througout the years that at this point none of my coworkers believed it was fake, and since it felt so grounded without like uber extra paranormal "and then all the painting fell down" we didnt have a reason to not believe him either, and even talking to the operator at the time, he not only verified the events but also claimed he also felt like he was watched very regularly.

This an early morning paranormal experience at work. I was working at a grocery store 20 years ago. I was in the bakery/deli department. My shift started at 6am. I was into my shift, getting set up. I dropping fried chicken into the fryers. To the right of the fryers, there is a storage room. In the back of the storage room was the office. Through the corner of my eye, I saw a person shorter than me wearing a hoodie walk behind me into the office. When I was done dropping chicken, I walked back into the office thinking my boss had walked in there. There was nobody there. I thought I had lost my mind. A week or two later I finally got brave enough to say something. Turns out there is a hoodie wearing ghost that everyone has seen. He just hangs out in that department.

I used to work in an office type building alone at night and this incident happened back in 2016. I usually worked in the back of the building but my boss wanted me to help out up front where the offices were one night. I was up there working in an office when I heard a female cough right outside the door. I came out the door and didn’t see anyone. I said “Hello?” several times but no reply. I ended up walking through the entire building and I was the only one there. 😳.

Used to work the night shift at an adult novelty store. It was in an old house that had been renovated. When I got there, I was warned it was haunted by a spirit called “James.” After a really confusing and traumatic experience with the paranormal as a child, I’ve just tried to ignore/avoid anything that invites it to do anything with me. So I wasn’t out to see if this “James” was real or what his intentions were. For the most part, I didn’t experience anything, other than feeling creeped out sometimes when I was alone. One of my coworkers had a drink knocked out of her hand one night, but I didn’t see it.

But one night, I was straightening and vacuuming the store and a different coworker freaked out and took over those duties. We had cameras, but they were a bit janky and would cut out sometimes - but it was like camera 8 would be out one night but be up another, and same with a few others. But they stayed that way if they cut out. This night was weird, because my coworker said that every room I went into, the camera that should’ve seen me would cut out. After noticing this pattern, she had me switch with her. The cameras didn’t cut out with her while I watched. It freaked me out a little tho.

Nothing else happened that I remember. I don’t like messing with any of that stuff lol.

Okay I've got a few stories about one place I worked at. However I am skeptical because they could possibly be explained. I used to work at a big chain auto parts store. The location I worked at got shut down because the company isnt doing to good right now. However I used to work a lot of closing shifts with one other coworker. There would be nights where you would hear heavy loud prominent foot steps on top of the roof. heavier then any bird that's for sure. However the roof assess was locked and you would need to bring your own latter to get onto of the roof. There have been times when something really big or heavy sounding would crash/fall in the store. Also if I may add. the store was a small location I could walk from one side to the other in under a minute. that's the whole store. the actual shopping area was 1 quarter of the whole place. When things that sound heavy and loud fall. You'd be able to easily find it... However we've heard a ton of things get 'thrown' in a way or just fall. But you can walk the whole store over and over again and not find a single thing misplaced or on the ground. One night my manager heard someone trying to get into the store via the emergency exits on the side of the building. However he couldn't find anyone when opening the door. The more closer we got to closing day, the building became more and more 'restless' in a sense. More things would fall, more unexplained footsteps on the roof or somewhere in the building. I believe that the ground the building sat on was some Indian burial ground as I live in Texas. However the location was feeding off of the negative energy as we become more stressed and more irate customers came in trying to get cheaper parts. My manager (huge believer in the paranormal) claimed that one night he saw a black figure turn the corner as he was walking through the store. Again nothing crazy happened but given the fact that we had no radio. Hearing things at night gave you the creeps. Was it Paranormal? probably not. But who knows.

I used to work at a hotel and on a night shift I was flicking through cameras and basically on one of the second floor cameras all I could see was a shadow sort of thing (bare in mind the lights are on) running back and forth but it wasn't a human figure and the shadow was inhumane speed so I went to one of my coworkers and as soon as I went on cameras to show them it disappeared.... Idk what this was but ngl it scared the fck outta me.
