DarkLight 0 Posted August 9, 2002 I thought this might get funny if everybody wrote down the moments that they really freaked out. Here's one about me. When my oldest sister turned 18, she really wanted to go to a fun-fair. So one week after her birthday we all went to the Efteling in Holland. After some driving we arrived there and we emmediatly went to some of the attractions. One of them was one of those trains that ride really fast on rails, we went inside the building and stepped into one of the little trains. It was one for 4 persons, next to me was my youngest sister, in front of me, my oldest sister and her boyfriend. This ride was in the dark, sometimes it was possible to see a bit but that didn't happen a lot. As you might know, in the middle of the ride some camera takes a pic of you and when you exit the attraction you can watch your pic and buy it if you want. The ride went well, we had a good time and when we came out of the train we walked to the photothing and searched for our pic, when we looked at the pic the freaky thing happened, i wasn't on the picture!!! You could see both my sisters and the other guy smiling really hard but i just wasn't there. Today i still don't know what happened, sad enough we didn't buy the pic... Here's one about one of my friends. Every year i go on a camp in July, almost every camp the oldest kids (aged 18) play this game where they have to go into the woods at night (starts at about 24.00 or midnight), they have to protect a big bowl full of water while the "leaders" (dunno what the good word is for this, but i'm talking about the grown ups, or at least that's what they're supposed to be, that are responsible for a group and who spent their time with them) of every group are supposed to find the bowls and throw 'em on the floor without the defender being able to catch him before he reaches the bowl. Every bowl has only one defender, you are not allowed to have anything with you that makes any light, or anything electronic... I can guarantee you that these woods can scare the shit outta you, even if you are one of those guys that never get scared. So one of my friends was lying near his bowl listening to every sound, he then suddenly heared a sound to the right of him, he looked out of the corners of his eye and saw a shadow crawling directly towards him, he slowly turned his head to see if he wasn't freaking out but he was right, a shadow really was crawling towards him. Not knowing how to react he just lay there and waited. Eventually the shadow was right next to him, and this is the freaky part, the shadow just crawled straight through him. This guy totally freaked out and he probable was very happy when the game ended. If you ask him about it, he says that he'd rather not talk about it... *Plays the X files tune* Well, this should get all of you started, feel free to post your freaky things, i might remember some more and then i'll post them too...

LauryThorn 0 Posted August 9, 2002 I heard somewhere that you can sort of hypnotisize yourself if you stare in the mirror long enough. It's worth a try if you want something freaky. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Espectro (DayZ) 0 Posted August 9, 2002 A freaky moment i had: It was one year ago, just in the beginning of the summer holidays. So my dad and I went out sailing for a couple days in our boat. When we had sailed a day, we went in a habour to sleep, and the creapy thing happend when I woke up. The sun riced, and I could just feel something as wrong... You people probably had the feeling as well, kinda the feeling that "youve forgot something". Anyway, about 30 minutes went by, and I began thinking of a old guy called "Henry", which was really nice. He was a family member but thats not the point. Anyway,, I started thinking on him and suddenly i had the feeling that he had died. 10 seconds later, my dads cellphone rang.... Henry was dead. Now THAT was creapy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tovarish 0 Posted August 9, 2002 Ever gotten your roomate, who never drinks, totally sloshed at a cottage in the middle of nowhere? THAT's freaky . I just came back from spending 6 days at a cottage in Quebec with some friends, 2 nights ago we were mixing drinks and my roomate finally decided to join us in drunkeness in a MAJOR way. He downed 4 screwdrivers in under an hour, and after chugging the first one against our advice, he went completely nuts. Our BBQ was broken so he tried to eat raw hamburger, he spillt a drink all over his face (Vodka + orange juice in the eyes hurt), kept mooning us and yelling out "Shake your Wee-wee!", and all night long he was loudly declaring that he was completely sober and we were all drunk bastards and swinging a broom at us. The worst part was he kept demanding vodka. after the fourth screwdriver I hid the booze and just gave him straight OJ and he couldn't tell the difference . When we ran out of OJ I told him he had had all the vodka and he kept repeating shit like "The bears are coming, Alex, you've got to go to town and get more vodka, we need vodka to feed the bears!". Can't wait till I develop the pictures from that trip . Man that was an interesting night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Albert Schweitzer 10 Posted August 9, 2002 Now that is a story where I really freaked out. When I worked in Marketing in a resort Hotel in Asia I lived in a management staff house (best aircon) nearby. Everything went fine untill the day we had a staff party. When I arrived there the whole management team was already drunk so I had to make an effort to quickly reach their level and drank a bottle of Ballentines. While I was doing that our human resources Manager had to go to the stage and play an old asian tale and he had to play a ghost. But in asia people shouldnt play ghosts, and a few staff members next my table were saying something like: dont play a ghost he will take revenge. One hour later I was pissed and wanted to go home; this human resources Manager told me: "drive carefully, wear your helmet and dont go crosscountry!" 3 hours later he had a car accidents flew through the window and smashed against a wall, dead! Okay that is fate. Tough luck! But since those asians were so superstitious the gards refused to guard the staff house that night because the ghost of the manager would return to get his stuff from his appartment. And I guess that was the first night the guard didnt fall asleep once! When I came back from a restaurant at around 10pm I parked my motorcycle and nearly stepped over a cobra. Damn I was never so stoned by adrenaline before. Usually they are not as big as in films and at night when it is cold they are slow and cautious but hell I was jumping away like Air Jordan. I wanted to kill that beast with a long stick but the guard told me that this would be the ghost of the Manager and I shouldnt touch it! Can you believe it, they wanted to leave that thing crawling around our staff-house and didnt give me the long bamboo-stick to kill it? I killed that snake anyway (threw a plastic chair on it several times!. And the next day we had some serious talks with that guard, I couldnt believe it, their superstition could have costed someones life. Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aculaud 0 Posted August 9, 2002 Last night, when i was in the bathroom brushing my teath, i saw this black thing on the wall behind me through the mirror, and my first thought was "TURANTULA!!!". It turned out to just be a big moth though. Any way, i was just kinda freaked out by that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ralphwiggum 6 Posted August 10, 2002 hmmm...i never had encounters with the other side or beings... but i do have tendencies(or used to) to dream future. when I was 13, I dreamt this shopping mall that I've never been to. It was so intense(yes, for guys, shopping is a great war) that i vividly remembered it. about a yr later, I was visiting a city that I was traveling, and suddenly it struck me that that shopping mall was the one that I dreamt of. second happened when I was in my junior yr in college. I went to a costco in Burbank CA, and was eating pizza after buying some stuffs with my roommate. and again, I realized that I dreamt this scene some months before. both dreams were really specific in place, not just generic places... another wierd thing that happened to me was when my sister's cat passed away a few months ago(forum veterans will know that I made a thread about it...wobble's cat died earlier, and timmy's dog died sometime later too... ) that day at work, I had some funny fealing, and my heart just kept pounding faster than normal during drive to home. and yes, my sister's cat died that day... so i beleive in 6th sense...

Espectro (DayZ) 0 Posted August 10, 2002 I just remembered 1 creapy more thing... Happend about 1Ë year ago. Me and a friend was arranging this party, and it was really cool. Atleast for us, since we gottotally drunk...REALLY, ive never been that drunk since.... well, atleast that i can remember And ive never touched "Black Swein" ever since! Anyway, this is what I could remember when I woke up: A half full bottle of Black Swein, lots of emty Vodka bottles (We were only 2 guys drinking this) and a big-ass knife. When we came down to the livingroom, there were, as i remembered many emty vodka bottles, but the Black Sweing-bottle was emty as well. "Strange" we said, since we couldnt remember drinking it. When we came out to the kitchen, blood was laying all over the place.... "Really strange" we said.... Then we looked on ourselves, and we were also covered in blood (!!?). That was when we sat down, and started thinking, since we thought we did something not so good, or someone did something not so good in our house... We then realised it was our own blood, see: While totally drunk, we decided that we wanted to be blood brothers... As in, cut yaself and mix blood. This, however, turned into being a competition cutting the deepest. That explained the 4 scars on each arm, since the others obviosly "wasnt good enough". Anyway, I guess my friend won, since he still got a few scars left after the incident, where you cant see it on my arms.... But talk about getting freaked out... Waking covered in blood, while the kitchen is also covered in blood. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jawk2 1 Posted August 10, 2002 during my army period i did 14 paradrop jump (with the 4 on pre-military and 3 on the final training... got 17 jumps). All were freaky (and amazing when u are on the ground you put your things very quickly to get the quickiest possible to another jump because u are very joyfull about the jump).... There was two very freaky jump: the second and the 12th on the second jump i was 17th in the queue in the plane, and if in the first drop the first is everytime an officer or sub-officer, the drops are only 16*16 in french army (so the plane drop 32 guys by passage). Well the plane drop the first mens and see that the wind changed and begin to grow: so he did on passage to replace from the wind, and 2 other to check if the wind is too speedy to drop or not (the limit is 10m per second wind lateral.... we was at 8m/sec i heard): AND DURING THEESE 25 MIN OF PLACEMENT AND WAITING FOR JUMP I WAS AT THE OPEN DOOR IN POSITION WAITING FOR THE GO *u cannot understand my relief when i heard "one go go go !!" The other one was the 12th... i was dropped and passed under the plane during the 3 seconds... well in the back of a parachute there's some little cords that retain the whole drape (a parachute is always composed of a backpack(for the mass of drape) and the girt: all of theese are retain by tiny cords... and each cords have a limit weight with various colors: THE FUCKING PARACHUTE GUY THAT FOLD MY PARACHUTE SACK HAVE MADE A CONFUSION IN THE COLOR OF THE BACKPACK CORDS AND GIVEN ME CORDS OF 0.5TONS INSTEAD OF 1.5T.... well i landed with 3/4 of of the tiny cords *and i still have in my pocket money sack a little tiny green cord that i picked this day* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
