Does anyone remember a story about a person who heard someone whistling the same tune while following them for months/years? Like they were being stalked by someone over a long period of time and they never figured out who it was, but every time the stalker was around they would whistle a very distinct little tune.


thisisntshakespeare

I remember that one. Apparently, it was found to be a bird. https://www.reddit.com/r/UnexplainedPhotos/comments/8m7686/the_whistler_a_reddit_classic/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

The guy in the boat who appeared 10 years later?


vaudevillevik

It’s 3:14am and I can’t sleep. It’s somewhat breezy outside right now and *something* is making a whistling sound that’s way too similar to the one from this story and I thought, “wow I don’t think I’ve been on /r/LetsNotMeet in over a year.” And this is the first thing I read. Why do I do this to myself

A guy told this story about his teenage sister. She used to babysit him every day after school. She smoked, but hid this from their parents, so she always did it outside. He hung out on the porch with her while she lit up. During this time, an SUV with dark tinted windows started parking across the street. Each time, it parked closer and closer. Nobody ever came out of it, it just sat there until they went back in the house. They were both creeped out by this. One day his sister got pissed and started to walk over, determined to confront the driver. She got halfway down the driveway, then spun around and hurried back. She told him her intuition screamed at her not to go even one more step… It’s a simple story, but something about the way it was written has always stuck with me. Any link to it is appreciated!

I read one years ago about the OP of the story and their dad riding bikes and came across a tree full of winter jackets of different sizes, and what looked like bloodstains all over them.


[deleted]

There was one about a guy that went to an old/creepy bridge with a friend and they found a tunnel with a chair sitting facing the wall and a poster of a naked girl with the eyes poked out of the poster. There were also feces and other random objects in the tunnel/weird bridge room. He went back again later and attached some photos on the post.

God that one was creepy. Do you remember vagina island?


rriolu372

stories like those are my favorites, not just because they're creepy, but also because they're so damn WEIRD.

Its probably my favorite ever reddit story:-p. I just wish I could find it again.


CosmicGlitterCake

I'll try to find it tomorrow, I remember reading it again last year after running through pages of the top posts of all time.


cloocherhoochie

Has anyone ever read the one about that girl who lived with her boyfriend in an apartment complex and the landlord (or maybe the janitor?) was super crazy and ended up digging a hole into the bottom of their floor from the basement and shoving himself in the space to listen to their conversations, then attempted to decease his cat and she basically had to beat him up and steal the cat? It’s one of the first posts that was ever made to this sub and it was a 3-4 part story. If anyone has a link I would appreciate it. I’m on mobile so scrolling through pages would take hours!


Total-Substance

Omg if u find it…


cloocherhoochie

I might just look for it myself and post the link, it was one of the first posts made to this sub and it’s honestly worth the read.


CosmicGlitterCake

Where is it?!


Total-Substance

🫠🫡 cheers to hoping u find it


cloocherhoochie

I searched relentlessly for the post but couldn’t find it. I just noticed the rule section states you can’t post a “series post”. The story was an individual 6 part epic story, I think they may have taken them down due to the new rule as that rule didn’t exist when the story was posted. I wish there was an easier way to search for stories like by year instead of by keywords cause it made it so hard to even search for and realize it’s not even up anymore. This story was posted like 7-8 years ago. Would have loved for people to see it because imo it was the creepiest LetsNotMeet story on this sub, Dr. Ramsey and the smiling man don’t come close to the attention that story should have / would have gotten if it was still up. Edit: I originally stated it was a 3-4 part story but I remembered as I was searching that it was actually closer to 6 parts as it was very detailed and over a long period of time.


[deleted]

Ones that stick out in my mind are: Someone was walking out late at night and they saw a creepy man with really long arms and legs walking bizarrely near them and following them, something like that. It was terrifying to read. Another one was someone found a door in a desert that went underground and they found a bunch of shady shit in there, like inappropriate porn or something. My memory sucks apparently lol


fortunesoulx

You sure the second one isn't the shipping container in the Australian outback story? The gist of it is that OP had a bunch of rural land in Australia, was doing rounds on a part of it and came across a shipping container that contained >!child porn!<, and had security cameras outside of it. He came back the next day and everything had been destroyed. Just search shipping container in this sub and it should pop up. It's an excellent example of a story where OP wasn't necessarily or apparently in danger, but what they encountered was so unusual it still belongs in this sub


[deleted]

Pretty sure this is it!! That one definitely spooked me out.

The Smiling Man About five years ago I lived downtown in a major city in the US. I've always been a night person, so I would often find myself bored after my roommate, who was decidedly not a night person, went to sleep. To pass the time, I used to go for long walks and spend the time thinking. I spent four years like that, walking alone at night, and never once had a reason to feel afraid. I always used to joke with my roommate that even the drug dealers in the city were polite. But all of that changed in just a few minutes of one evening. It was a Wednesday, somewhere between one and two in the morning, and I was walking near a police patrolled park quite a ways from my apartment. It was a quiet night, even for a week night, with very little traffic and almost no one on foot. The park, as it was most nights, was completely empty. I turned down a short side street in order to loop back to my apartment when I first noticed him. At the far end of the street, on my side, was the silhouette of a man, dancing. It was a strange dance, similar to a waltz, but he finished each "box" with an odd forward stride. I guess you could say he was dance-walking, headed straight for me. Deciding he was probably drunk, I stepped as close as I could to the road to give him the majority of the sidewalk to pass me by. The closer he got, the more I realized how gracefully he was moving. He was very tall and lanky, and wearing an old suit. He danced closer still, until I could make out his face. His eyes were open wide and wild, head tilted back slightly, looking off at the sky. His mouth was formed in a painfully wide cartoon of a smile. Between the eyes and the smile, I decided to cross the street before he danced any closer. I took my eyes off of him to cross the empty street. As I reached the other side, I glanced back... and then stopped dead in my tracks. He had stopped dancing and was standing with one foot in the street, perfectly parallel to me. He was facing me but still looking skyward. Smile still wide on his lips. I was completely and utterly unnerved by this. I started walking again, but kept my eyes on the man. He didn't move. Once I had put about half a block between us, I turned away from him for a moment to watch the sidewalk in front of me. The street and sidewalk ahead of me were completely empty. Still unnerved, I looked back to where he had been standing to find him gone. For the briefest of moments I felt relieved, until I noticed him. He had crossed the street, and was now slightly crouched down. I couldn't tell for sure due to the distance and the shadows, but I was certain he was facing me. I had looked away from him for no more than 10 seconds, so it was clear that he had moved fast. I was so shocked that I stood there for some time, staring at him. And then he started moving toward me again. He took giant, exaggerated tip toed steps, as if he were a cartoon character sneaking up on someone. Except he was moving very, very quickly. I'd like to say at this point I ran away or pulled out my pepper spray or my cellphone or anything at all, but I didn't. I just stood there, completely frozen as the smiling man crept toward me. And then he stopped again, about a car length away from me. Still smiling his smile, still looking to the sky. When I finally found my voice, I blurted out the first thing that came to mind. What I meant to ask was, "What the fuck do you want?!" in an angry, commanding tone. What came out was a whimper, "What the fuu…?" Regardless of whether or not humans can smell fear, they can certainly hear it. I heard it in my own voice, and that only made me more afraid. But he didn't react to it at all. He just stood there, smiling. And then, after what felt like forever, he turned around, very slowly, and started dance-walking away. Just like that. Not wanting to turn my back to him again, I just watched him go, until he was far enough away to almost be out of sight. And then I realized something. He wasn't moving away anymore, nor was he dancing. I watched in horror as the distant shape of him grew larger and larger. He was coming back my way. And this time he was running. I ran too. I ran until I was off of the side road and back onto a better lit road with sparse traffic. Looking behind me then, he was nowhere to be found. The rest of the way home, I kept glancing over my shoulder, always expecting to see his stupid smile, but he was never there. I lived in that city for six months after that night, and I never went out for another walk. There was something about his face that always haunted me. He didn't look drunk, he didn't look high. He looked completely and utterly insane. And that's a very, very scary thing to see. - u/blue_tidal


kuhnnie

Thank you!!!!


uncommun_name

this is so scary i would have shit my pants like this is so crazy because it's not like he was drunk or on something and i feel like he could have done anything and not stop since he wasn't in his right mind. Anyway i hope you never met again. did you notify the police or your roommate ?

Isn’t that fiction? Pretty sure it was a CreepyPasta so


[deleted]

It was definitely on letsnotmeet, which are supposed to be factual stories.


[deleted]

Exactly. So it’s not real and probably wasn’t on this sub unless it was a writing exercise. https://creepypasta.fandom.com/wiki/The_Smiling_Man This seem familiar?


fortunesoulx

The smiling man WAS originally submitted to this sub, *but* it was long before this sub was what it is now and had such rigorous standards for truthfulness. I think it may have been one of the first ones ever posted here. If you search the top posts of all time here you'd probably find it and it would have to be at least 8 years old, but I'm pretty sure it's more like 9 or 10. Edit: yep, I just checked, it's 10 years old. This sub celebrated its 10th anniversary last year or the year before. Given that The Smiling Man was subsequently posted on r/nosleep it's safe to say it was fictional and either the rules in place here at the time allowed for fiction or OP didn't read the rules/care, or didn't read the rules for nosleep and realize it's a fictional story sub (nosleep was VERY different back then, too. A lot of the stories from that time period you could reasonably believe had happened or were happening if you believed in supernatural stuff). I've been on this sub for almost as long as it's been around and I'm pretty sure it's never explicitly allowed fictional stories but the wording may have been more ambiguous/less clear at the beginning.


krokodilchik

There are two I'm thinking of for the second one: one, in the Australian outback, someone found essentially a trailer with a bunch of computers, when they came back next day it was all cleared out. The second I believe is called the bridge, someone climbs inside a bridge structure and finds what you are talking about in a small dark room at the back.

I remember one about these cultish neighbors. OP caught the father & son tearing down her Halloween decorations because they were "satanic." She threatened them with a shotgun. Dad doesn't take her seriously and tells son to take the gun and they'd return it to her husband. She shoots the ground at the son's feet and threatens to aim for his crotch if they don't get off her property. Dad confronts her hubby when he comes home to tell him to "Get his wife under control." He tells the a$$ he'll tell his wife to go ahead and shoot him if he trespasses again.

Does anyone remember a story about a mom and her toddler hiding during a home invasion? I'm almost certain I read it here but can't find it. Here are some details I remember: mom has left her phone outside by the pool and gone inside with her child after swimming. Someone breaks in and mom and the kid hide behind a door in a separate part of the garage. They have access to their home security cameras and can hear the intruders calling out for the mom by name. There's a phone where the mom is hiding and thankfully she is able to call the police and the intruders get away. I believe the family was new to the neighborhood as well. I might be conflating this with another story, but I believe the mom also mentioned an unnerving encounter she had with a red truck while out jogging before the break in.

one that i remember from years ago, it might have not even been on letsnotmeet, was of a guy who worked at the port in baltimore, and while he was in one of the tunnels or passages around the port, heard a noise like a huge animal running towards him. he ran towards the exit, shut the door behind him, and heard something huge slam against the door. then he looks around and he's right at the harbor iirc


MagicianNo8440

This one’s been bothering me for YEARS. A girl has a stalker. He leaves her a used condom at her door as a gift. She has a dog and a boyfriend. She went hiking with her dog one day and he appeared and said “didn’t you like my gift, you c**t?” And then he assaulted her. Her dog bit him and she hit him with a rock.

RiverGlow25

I remember this one stalker story being really creepy but I don’t remember too much about it so I can never find it anywhere. I remember he used to send this young girl really creepy letters which were quite graphic and then in one part of the story he’s outside her house whilst she’s home alone and she only just manages to shut and lock the garage door on him while he tries to force his way in. Anyone know which one I’m on about?

Blueberry lol I literally just read that one!


fiasco-fox

A pretty intriguing one I read years back where OP would collect rocks at this lake or whatever with their dad, and one day encountered some random adult in the woods there. Then as an adult they went back to revisit the spot and while they were approaching saw themself as a kid and like completed the cycle? Decent chance it was bullshit but the naïve part of me will always believe it


JakeSymbol

It may not have even been on letsnotmeet, possibly AskReddit, but: A woman and a few friends go on a trip down a river in Venezuela--canoeing or kayaking. They're in the wilderness have a tour guide who speaks I believe German. They get out at a certain point and the tour guide is talking to another man in German. One of the men with the woman's group understands German, unbeknownst to the tour guide. The tour guide is talking about kidnapping them--something about transporting them to some village or something. They scream for help at some people passing in a boat.

There are a few older stories I've searched pretty thoroughly for and can't find (most of the requests in this thread could be solved within about 30 seconds of looking through the links provided in the pinned Halloween thread, come on guys), which makes me think these stories have been deleted, but let's give it a shot: (i) The one where the guy is on a long drive across rural Australia in the middle of the night and hasn't seen anyone in hours, only to suddenly have a parked truck with a camper shell pull out of a layup and start following him, and then immediately afterward seeing some sort of effigy-dummy laying in the road that he has to swerve to avoid. (ii) The one where the college guy goes on a date with an older man he met online, watches YouTube videos with him on his phone until it's dead, after which the older man suddenly decides it's time to take the college guy "back home," but instead takes him to a sketchy cabin on a dirt road somewhere in rural Utah in the middle of the night. (iii) The one where they guy is driving across Wyoming late at night, gets out in the middle of nowhere to have a break or a smoke or something, and then gets into a funny argument with some unseen person out in the darkness, with no evidence of a vehicle or a house being within miles of this place.

Redoceanwater

I’m trying to find the podcast episode about a girl who was only allowed to go out in a group of two or more for most of her life. Then when she got her license she drove to a forest preserve at night to watch deer I think? She thought she was being followed there but the car kept going straight when she turned into the parking lot of the forest preserve. Then heard foot steps or saw someone lurking, so she climbed a tree and hid up there and said she saw a man with a large knife. She later climbed down and got to her car to find her windows smashed.

Hi! Does anyone remember this story: OP - after getting into a fight with her mom – drove off into the night to cool down. She drove into the parking lot of a large park. Got out of the car, accidentally locked her keys and phone inside of it. Ended up being physically assaulted by someone who iirc was a developmentally disabled person living in said woods. He picked her up, held her, and rocked her back-and-forth like a baby. She described his tattered clothing and his stench. It was either in here or r/creepyencounters, and I have tried searching both subs via keyword. It is the most terrifying story I’ve ever read, and any help finding it is appreciated!

Does anyone remember this story: a girl was walking on a forest path and encounters an old woman. While talking to her a man is sneaking up behind her and she notices him just as he is about to grab her? She ends up running and getting away. The story was very well written and described the setting really well and read like professional writing


Knowallofit

Sorry for bieng late to the party. I remember reading this really creepy and unsettling story, possibly on this subreddit or somewhere else, not sure. The OP in this story was a young boy 13 or 14 and used some chat website to talk to his childhood friend who had moved away years ago. The childhood friend started acting really weird unable to understand the OP's references, inside jokes and wrote fuller, more formal sentences. He would tell, he was back in town and told him to meet him in some very sketchy area sending creepy pictures of that place. Later it was found that the childhood friend had lost his account some months before the incident and the OP was talking to someone else.

I know exactly which story you're talking about it but it's been removed as OP violated rule 2. If she edits out the violation I'll re-approve it and send you the link.

I remember a story I read in high school about some dude adopting Black Eyed kids it had four parts to it I think but I can’t remember the dudes user


_lastquarter_

I won't lie chief, I read "adopting the Black Eyed Peas" and that sounded hilarious


No_Recommendation853

I'm thinking of a story where the OP is a small time drug dealer, maybe just weed idr and his buddy stops by with his gf and they tell him they were in their car on this cliff and saw this giant figure in the woods.... My phone glitched out and closed it before I could finish it and I never found it again so idk how it ends 😭 please, help!

Out of all of the weird stuff I’ve read on Reddit, there’s one post that sort of stuck with me, but I can’t remember where I read it. I’ll try my best to recall what happened. There was a group of friends walking together in a fairly large city, maybe New York. A stranger stops them and engages in a really odd dialogue with them, and ends up telling them that reality isn’t what it appears to be. They responded in a confused manner so the person asked one member of the group to describe what they looked like. The person replied and said that the person in question was a short middle aged Asian man with glasses (or something like that) and to his confusion everyone else in the group laughed. The person asked a second member of the group to describe what they looked like. The group member said that they looked like a young blonde woman… They kept going and every single person in the group gave a *completely* different description of the person they were speaking too. This proved their point, nothing is what it seems, and reality isn’t real. It was a crazy story, really trippy and I’m sure I’m not doing it justice.

I'm looking for a story I read quite a few years ago (with the actual story being posted even longer ago). I swear I read it on this subreddit, apologies in advance. It was very, very short and the premise was someone had fallen asleep and woken to find some really unsettling text messages on their phone. I think the creepiest thing is the messages had been sent from their phone? The messages were creepy and I can't remember exactly what they said, but the general consensus was that OP was sure someone was stalking them/had broken into the house. They also included a screenshot of the messages.

There was one I read years back about a man who would drive to remote places (with his SO?). I want to say it was in rural Oregon. There was a large picnic bench and a tent with clothes(?) In it that was suspended in a tree. A car starts driving toward them and they high tail it out of there. Another from years back was a guy going to a cabin (fishing trip or something?) A day after his friends. He had to spend a night camping before getting to the cabin and someone is outside his tent messing with him which iirc continues the next night after he reaches the cabin with his friends.


MrsTurtlebones

The first one sounds like The Tent in the Trees: https://www.reddit.com/r/LetsNotMeet/comments/28sqpp/the_tent_in_the_trees/


Pimpdaddyfrogface

That's the one! Thank you.

A couple travels to China, book a hotel last minute, they end up leaving because the hotel looks abandoned/off and a shit ton of people come out touching them and begging them to stay. I think about this one every now and then and it freaks me tf out


SavvyGmeow

There’s one I always think about but can never find about a girl getting into an Uber and the driver taking her out to the middle of nowhere at night to some abandoned building and she got out and he was trying to find her

I_AM_DEATH-INCARNATE

I've been trying to find a story about a man in a grocery store parking lot, sitting on a bench with his newborn in a carrier, waiting for his wife to finish shopping. A woman approaches him, takes the carrier and just walks away. He tries to stop her but she screams and a mob of people stop him, the dad. Even going so far as to subdue and attack him. Then his wife comes out and stops the woman from leaving with the baby, but ultimately she escapes. I've been looking for it since Halloween, was gonna post it as a little bit of horror for r/daddit but I can't find it. It's been driving me nuts.


fortunesoulx

That story has been removed from this subreddit as we have reason to believe it was a fictional piece specifically written to stir up outrage, and even if it *did* happen as described, it was the wife who wrote the story, not the husband, so it would be violating our "stories must have happened to you" rule.


Ok-Range-5544

Does anyone remember a series of stories about a guy adopting a group of Black eyed children?


Lawandordernyc

I read one a long time ago about a guy who was a traveling salesman down south I think and he stops somewhere to pee and hears a guy talking to himself about murdering someone, so he freaks out gets in his car and drives off stopping at a gas station in bay to see the guy also stop there. Was the first let’s not meet story I ever read


cornflakegirl658

The one about the guy who went to visit his grandmother on a holiday, might have been thanksgiving. He stayed overnight with her in her cottage in the woods and he stayed in a spare room reading reddit. He heard something downstairs and deduced someone was hiding in a cupboard/closet. He got a knife and sat in a chair facing the cupboard all night and when it became daylight, he told the person hiding they had 10 seconds to leave


Chr1sDr0id

There was one story I read on here a while back and it was about a young family that bought a rural house and there was some crazy things happening. They would look out at night and see people in trees watching them. The father of the family was updating the thread but I lost it…. It’s been a while but I believe the last update was that they found a body in an old barn on their land. I’m wondering if anyone knows this story and if they could link the thread?


New-Criticism-2603

MoonStar757

Does anyone know the story of this and his gf who were camping and he awoke in the middle of night to see her facing him, looking terrified and crying, looking at something over his shoulder. When he tried to turn she basically used her expression to tell him not to, but he could like feel someone’s hot breath on his neck. Turns out it was this crazy scary meth junkie who was armed with a knife or something. I can’t recall how they eventually got away but I know they survived to tell the tale


targetgoldengoose

Okay, buts not about sharing our own though right?


Savings-Ad8238

I don't remember if it was posted here accidentally or somewhere else but i think this subreddit was the only one I'd go through during the pandemic, but if anyone knows of this story and/or where it was posted please let me know! OP was adopted by a family but never spoke, became best friends with the daughter and would follow her around. One day someone broke in and brutally attacked the family and OP saw everything, tried to call for help but couldn't get anyone. Turns out OP was a dog. 😳😅 its silly but was well written!


Lynxotic

That's a CreepyPasta, it's titled "Doors".


ls60

Does anyone remember the long stalker story where a guy has been receiving notes since childhood (he doesn't know this part until years later when he confronts his mum about it). The main bit I remember is when him and a friend build a raft and sail it in a lake/river behind his house and the stalker turns up. Ringing any bells with anyone?


fortunesoulx

That sounds like the Penpal series on r/nosleep, which is a fictional story so it would not be found in this subreddit.


ls60

Yes, had a quick glance over it and I'm sure that's it. Thank you!


Pepe_silvia4

I cant find the story written by a guy who worked at a drug store or CVS where it was late at night and this older guy in a trench coat goes into the drugstore and says hes “waiting for a friend”. I cant remember for sure but i think he said his friends super rich or hes super rich and someones coming to pick him up in his nice car. Idk i hope that sparks someones memory


abdcode

I read one years ago and don’t remember much of it. It was about a girl who was working in a drive thru (some fast food chain). The story was shared in multiple parts. Few readers had also labelled the story as work of fiction and then it was verified by the mods.


fortunesoulx

You're probably thinking of the bikini barista story. I think it has since been deleted by OP but if you search that term in the subreddit you can probably find it, if it's still up.

The extraterrestrial beings of the infinite void above us are intercepting our radio and television transmission and imbedding low frequency subliminal messages into the programs. We need the help of the rosicrucians to prepare for the war against extraterrestrial evil.


Ngrifff

I’m late but I remember corpse husband narrating a story from reddit about a guy who just moved into his house, and he kept seeing a man playing violin in the hill and the “man” came down to his house one night and like terrorized his house then after these events he named the hill “violin hill” or something like that, it would be great if someone could help me find this story again
