24 Creepy Moments People Can’t Forget That Keep Coming Back To Them

Im a guy, and when I was 11 or 12 I was flying back home after having spent the summer with my dad. I was sitting next to an adult man on the plane. He tried to talk to me (now I recognize as 'flirting'), tried to put his hand on my knee, and asked me if I wanted to hang out once the plane landed. This was before 9/11, and my mom was waiting for me right outside the gate so nothing happened beyond the encounter on the plane, fortunately. Still creeps me out to this day though.

When I was 10 years old I lived in the middle of rural alabama.. we had some odd neighbors. Being curious kids, my friend and I followed my neighbor and his son and daughter one day when they left their house and walked into the woods. I was very familiar with the area because it was back when kids could roam free until the street lights came on. Anyway, we trailed them for about 2 miles, through the woods, across an old cemetery, and down a railroad. They stopped at a clearing beside the tracks and my friend and I hid opposite of them and watched.....

They started digging and kept pulling up bones and putting them in a bucket. We got scared and bolted. I immediately told my parents but they didn't believe me.

I'm 32 and remember that day clearly.


Edit: I forgot to come back to this. Had some major life changes lately.

I didn't expect this to get such a response. Thank you all!

After reading the comments, I would like to add...

This happened in very Rural Talladega county around 1999.

The neighbor dad wasn't someone you'd expect to have have a high school diploma at first glance. I remember him not being too kind to his kids sometimes.

After thinking more about that time, weirdest of all that hit me....there was never a mom. Again, that's just my 10 year olds memory.

One day during a break between classes in school, I went and dropped off my books in the classroom I was having next before going to hang out or grab something from a vending machine or whatever and was the first to do so since my last class was really close.

Right after I put my books down I heard an incredibly deep voice say my last name very slowly and clear as day, (I have a very unique last name, I doubt I misheard) from above and a little behind me, I figured it was someone messing with me but the room was completely empty, I did a quick lap and checked anything that direction big enough for someone to hide and the floating ceilings couldn't support anyones weight.

No idea what it was, probably just hearing things that aren't there but it was a bit creepy.

Two of us driving together - stopped to fill gas late at night - the gas station was closed. Beautiful summer night. I stepped away from the car to take the pup over to a grassy spot since we were stopped. Cute twenty something girl who was driving with me was filling up the car and standing illuminated by the lights over the pumps. Lone car comes tearing past on the road and suddenly does a screeching turn into the station and stops next to our car, opposite side of the pump. Very large guy, reddish beard, mid to late 20’s is already out of the car and halfway between the pumps, moving toward her when he sees me returning to the car, with the dog. He freezes in place staring at me. There was another guy who looked like his twin, sitting tense behind the wheel of their still running car and also staring. Neither of them moved a muscle after they saw me. They were not scared. Very tense.
Undecided, maybe. The whole incident happened fast. We both got into our car and drove away. They were 100% planning something unspeakable. Be careful out there, people.
