Bought this last year. The stories are a little creepy, but like you said...the artwork is fucking horrifying. I'm 27 and it STILL gives me the fucking creeps when I look at the story art.Mike M said:Only kinda related, but I just found this on clearance at Borders today for 10 bucks.
Three of the most fucked up children books ever in one volume for that price? Fuck yes, please.
The artwork STILL creeps me the fuck out, even if the stories are mostly a lot tamer than I remember (Some of them are still remarkably fucked up though). I mean, just look at that cover! Holy shit, who thought this was appropriate for children?
I'm locking this in a god damned vault to save for my children so they will quickly learn to stop asking me to read them bed time stories. Mwa ha ha ha ha!

Man, awesome memories. I'm in the process of moving and I just found my original copies of the three books. I remember reading those before bed, and being scared shit-less and not being able to sleep ... much like this thread does to me now sometimes. :lol
I'm a firm believer in the whole "someone passed and we experienced something" there are many nights that I fall asleep watching an A's game (I'm in CST so they end around 12:00am here) and I wake up with a blanket on me. My wife used to always put a blanket on me when I fell asleep watching the game before she passed.

Probably some kind of theorpy- maybe he never really talks about it and waking him up when its on the radio could be the only option.
While we are talking about paranormal stuff when someone dies. My dad experienced something before he got a phone call that his dad had died, and when the phone was rinning when he woke up it wasn't unxpected because of that.
Also when he died after he was berried I think, my grandma reckons that he came into the house and said he would look after her or something.
Then moving along a bit- my dad had a cat when he was living at his parents place who lived outside because the dogs inside picked on it or something- anyway the day it died it insisted on coming into the house, and it went to sleep on his dads bed and died an hour later.
Got a bunch of other stories liek that which I've forgotten as well which dad has told me relating to his pets.

You're right. Either way, it'd be interesting to track this guy down.
There have been a lot of deaths in my family and there are some things that have happened make us go "what the fuck?" because it really is unexplainable. I mean, a creaking floor/wall or door opening/closing I don't give a crap about, but it's those other things that happen that raise the hairs on your neck.Ulairi said:

When my grandfather passed away my mother took it very hard. The day of the funeral her mother gave her the cremated remains and she set them on the mantle in our living room. The next morning we found the nearby floor lamp over turned. She believes it was him giving her a sign as he was a troublemaker in his youth. I don't really have an explanation as to how a sturdy floor lamp could have toppled over. We have an old dog but she's never acted rowdy, and has had hip problems for years that keep her pretty slow moving. She spends 20 hours a day sleeping under the bed and only goes outside once a day, so it would be incredibly out of character for her to knock over a lamp.
There's a lot of stories of people who say "I had a feeling bad event X would happen" and then it turns out to be happening, like someone dying.
Here's a question, though. Do those people ever report the times they had a feeling and it DIDN'T happen? Probably not, because that reduces the "credibility" of the claim. For example, if you have an elderly relative, their likelihood of dying is fairly high. So every day, sometimes moreso than others, you'll have that in mind. And then, when it DOESN'T happen, the feeling is dismissed and forgotten.
Let's even remove the elderly aspect. Having a family member die is a legitimate fear. It's also a reality of the world we live in--people die all the time, naturally or unnaturally. It'd be insane NOT to know this on some level. It's GOING to enter your consciousness at some point--if anyone here is a parent, they'll know this feeling very well.
What does this mean? Well, we live in a world that has 6 billion people, all thinking thoughts day after day, for about 80 years, and someone dies every 10 seconds somewhere. We can see how the probability of people's fearful predictions coming true eventually is high. High enough that we'd see it in all demographics, including the young male audience of Neogaf.
So, basically, the coincidental occurrence of people's predictions of family members dying is not really a coincidence if we follow the probability. It SHOULD happen, fairly often, in fact. One could even say it is...normal.

Well, there's two cases on the last page, for starters, of people just having a feeling that someone died. And there's no need for that tone, I wasn't saying it doesn't happen. In fact, I'm saying it DOES happen, and SHOULD happen. So, I'm actually supporting their claims of it happening.
Not quite sure if this is verbatim but.. Does this have the one where two brothers live on a farm and a scarecrow appears, so they keep it. And when one of the brothers leaves he comes back to find the scarecrow laying his brother's skin out on the roof of the building in order to wear it?Mike M said:

Did a bit of digging on the lost cosmonauts story. If it hasn't already been listed in this thread, here's the alleged transmission of a female cosmonaut's last transmission before burning up on re-entry in 1961. It's kinda spooky to hear her final words before the capsule disintegrated high in the atmosphere, then even more so, be wiped from history through fear of it damaging a nation's domestic and international pride.

My apologies for coming off like an ass, but yes, to answer your question. I absolutely LOVE the adrenaline rush that comes from partaking in these kinds of threads, and sharing our creepy stories.
However, I've yet to read any that made believe they were truly something of a supernatural/paranormal nature. So maybe bullshit is a strong word, but there we are.
Btw, as to those walking Elfo dolls from Mexico. I've got a relative who is picking one (or rather, letting the doll pick her) real soon. So the moment I get some hands on, I'll if I can make it walk

So my parents divorced almost 20 years ago, we (mum & 4 kids) moved interstate and she found a boyfriend. They gave birth to my littlest brother, and my mother's boyfriend died in a car accident 4 years later.
Anyway so weird things began happening a few weeks after he died:
- Fridge door kept opening, requiring someone to get up to close it. It was a bit of a joke after a while because some of his favourite beer was still in there.
- A lamp in my mother's room flickered on and off, all of my siblings were in the lounge room with myself and a friend of mine and we all saw it via the hallway. At first I disbelieved it, thinking I was just seeing things but my brother voiced up and everyone starting going "yeah what the heck?" Eventually my sister was pleading somewhat ridiculously for him to leave us be, etc. We all sat down again, not daring to touch the lamp to turn it off. Less than 2 mins later, it flickers again and stays off.
- I used to sleep downstairs and my room would be directly under the kitchen. Often, if the person was loud enough, you could hear them walk around upstairs. On my mid-week day off from school, I'd sleep in like a pig and would be alone in the house till the afternoon. Several times during those days, I'd hear footsteps overhead whilst I would be down in my room playing games/drawing. Head upstairs and no one would be there.
Pretty sure there is one more that involves my little brother (not his son) who was very close to him, but for the life of me I cannot remember it.

This first thing happened when I was maybe 9-10 years old.My classes would get out an hour before my brothers and my mom would pick me up from school. My brother on the other hand would walk home from school since it was on the same street but just a few blocks away and he was older. So one day I go outside and wait for him to come down the street and after a few minutes I see him coming smiling and daydreaming I guess. He is still a distance away so where he can't hear me too well especially with cars passing by. So I just wait for him and notice that he isn't really paying attention. I see him begin to cross the street like one foot out and that's when I notice a car coming his way. Like I said, the guy didn't seem to be paying attention and didn't seem to notice the car.
That's when something strange happened. When you blow bubbles or you see oil in water you can see like a rainbow pattern?
Well that's what I saw around my brother at that moment and it felt as if time had slowed down. The next thing I notice is the car going by and my brother just continue walking like nothing happened or he didn't notice anything.
When I told him this he thought I was crazy.

Another time my brother was really sick and during the night I woke up to go use the restroom. After I was done I started walking back to the room when I got close to the door I noticed my brother floating in the air and going towards my parents room who were directly across from us. When he was floating it looked as if someone had him in their arms cradled and in a rush. After I saw that I ran to my bed, hid under the blankets, and didn't go back to sleep. I told my parents what I saw the next morning but the didn't have an explanation.

A few years later and in another house (where I never noticed anything but my aunt says she would see a little girl) I noticed an ambulance was at my neighbors and were taking away his baby niece. It turned out that she had died for some reason that I can't remember at the moment.
Well, we eventually actually moved into that same house after they had moved as well. Now this house was the weirdest. At nights you could hear the pantry doors opening and closing, the knobs being turned, the cupboards creaking open and shut. When I would walk to my room or brothers room I would feel as if something was watching me down the hallway and near the kitchen. I never SAW anything but I just would get these feelings. I tried to see what would make those noises at night too but I could never come up with an adequate explanation for all of it. It wouldn't happen until 1 or so in the morning either.
My cousin eventually moved in with us and he swears that one day when he opened the door to his room and looked down the hallway he saw a figure of some woman dressed in a white nightgown in front of my brothers door. At first he thought it was my mom but then realized that it was someone else that shouldn't be there and it eventually disappeared.
My brothers room was the same room that the little baby girl and her mom slept in too. I actually didn't know this until recently but he says that he would feel as if something was in the corner of the room and that he hated that house.
Another one of my brothers also stayed there for awhile and would hear the noises at night as well. I think both of my brothers that stayed there investigated the kitchen at night thinking it was my mom washing dishes or something but when they got there no one was in there.

Well, that's all for now. Believe it or not! I don't really care!

This was last year sometime or maybe the year before I cant remember. Anyway it was night around 11am it was a school night and I had randomly decided to go to bed early.. (im usually in bed about 1am and sleep by 2:30am ) My dad was asleep on the recliner snoring beer in hand(and when the man snores he fucking snores it can be heard from to houses away sometimes no joke) my brother sleeping on the couch next to him and front door open and all. My mum was in her bed sleeping and I was the only one left awake so I go for a shower and head off to bed I hit sleep for about 2 hours so it was now around 1:40am I wake up but not fully someone was in my room.. I took no notice of it as it may have been my brother walking in going to bed 10 minutes later I hear a scream and my mother yell "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING IN HERE" next minute running across my house and the back door opened and closed I hop up in a semi dazed state asking what happened turns out someone broke into our house pored them self some wine stole all our alcohol and fled when my mum court them going through here jewellery. Turns out there was more than one as they stole more alcho than one person can carry.

(yeah wasnt creepy apart from someone being in my room or unsolved but meh just keeping the thread alive I enjoy this shit.)

Hey, in the vein of those Fewdio films (while while flawed absolutely contain some solid ideas) here's another short film. I really enjoy these super short horror mini-movies, it gets to the moment of exhilaration without all the buildup and cheesy stumbling around. Usually I favor Japanese horror with it's relentless creeping atmosphere, but this is definitely a nice change of pace.

Well since I'm all freaked out now I might as well pay it foward with my childhood tale of trauma. I grew up in an 1880s brownstone in Brooklyn that my grandparents brought not long after they moved the family there from Jamaica. Like most West Indian families several generations all lived under one roof from the littlest, me, to my Great-Grandmother. We lived there until I was twelve and even though it was a huge old house nothing really stranged happened there besides this one event.I've never repeated this story to anyone so only my relatives who were there know about it.
One night when I was eight I was sitting up in bed reading after everyone else had to bed. My bedroom was connected to a small livingroom and on the other side was my great-grandma's bedroom. Occasionally she would get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom or get some water so I thought absolutely nothing of the figure I saw approaching my bedroom that night. As it got closer, about three feet away, it suddenly occured to me that the figure was far too tall to be my great-grandma. I turned and standing by my bed was a tall, white woman. But she wasn't just white in ethnicity, it was as if all color had been drained from her and her clothes like a black and white film. My immediate thought was nothing supernatural but rather that some crazy person had invaded my house and possibly harmed my great-grand since the woman had come from her bedroom. I totally freaked and jumped out of bed towards my parents room but there were a couple rooms I had to run through to get there. When I turned to see if she was chasing me (damn I'm getting serious chills now) I saw instead that she was moving backwards into the livingroom as if she was being rewound on a movie screen. At this point my mom ran out of the bedroom where she was sound asleep and I told her I saw a crazy woman in the house. My whole family was awakened the house searched but no one was found and my great-grandmother said she was watching TV in bed and saw no one. The conclusion that was reached was that I was having a bad dream but I know to this very day that I was wide awake when it happened I didn't dream it. I have no idea what the woman was but she wasn't transparent, she seemed as solid as any person, and the only strange thing about her was the aforementioned lack of color about her and the fact that she didn't seem to see me at all while I was screaming my head off. I'm not a believer in ghosts and spirits but that night still bothers me whenever I think about it.

My friend lives out in a not very populated area, basically its one "main" road off of a highway in the middle of nowhere basically. I can remember it like it just happened, so can he, for better or worse. I have only tried to tell a couple people about it in the 6 years since it happened, so ill try to cut down to just the big stuff. So it was around 7 or so on a Sunday in October one year when my bud decided to go walk down to Caseys like eh a mile or so away. Being fall it was getting pretty much dark out at that point but we didnt think about it.
We walk there no problem down the street but on the way back he decides we should take this shortcut through this field that turns to woods, which hey, its dark at this point but no problem I mean we can see a good distance from the beginning of the field to the tree line cause of moonlight so we start. Having played football id say the field we were in was about a good 70 yards to the trees. Anyway we get about half through with no animals being around when a breeze comes through so I do my normal walk backwards and talk thing when it gets windy and notice a medium-ish shadow back where we walked from at the "entrance" to the field.
So i poingt out "hey, thats strange, you remember seeing any cows or horses on the way?", to which he answered "nah, but it might be a wolf or a something". Anyway we talk for a few seconds debating what it could be and when we look back, nothing is there. In fact the taller grass where it had been seemed like nothing had been there since i could see it move with the breeze. A bit on guard we get to the tree line and notice that it forks kinda with trees on one side and more field on the other past this old barbed wire fence. After the previous experience of the "thing" being back where we came from we decided to go with where we can see: the field.
We scan the new field for a few seconds to see if there was anything but it was all clear so I decide I'll let him go through the fence first while I hold it up and step on the bottom part. Now, as I'm holding the fence I'm still looking at the field. He gets a leg through and gets his upper body almost through when he gets caught on a barb. As that is happening it looks foggy from the distance, like a desert oasis type experience. As my eyes focus on the fog I notice that about 15 feet away on the other side of the fence is an animal. A cow maybe but all black. He says "we'' at least its not a bull". As he finished that sentence it stood on its hind legs to where it looked like a minotaur without the horse backend. As i see it start standinmg im pulling him back and freaking out. Cause up till this point it had just moved parallel to us but as I pulled him through it took steps toward us and we could see gleaming red eyes. It maybe took a good step toward us at most before I did a Sonic outta there back where we came from. I left my friend in the dust after the first 5 feet i could hear "wait for me, dude stop". I slowed just enough to see he was ok and I noticed that there was nothing where we were just at. Just thinking about it now I still remember that feeling, I hate it. It was like ice water and electricity in my veins when it stood up and moved at us. Terrifying. Still dont know what it was, was thinking a Jersey Devil type thing at one point. Probably better to not know right now.

A bit on guard we get to the tree line and notice that it forks kinda with trees on one side and more field on the other past this old barbed wire fence. After the previous experience of the "thing" being back where we came from we decided to go with where we can see: the field.
We scan the new field for a few seconds to see if there was anything but it was all clear so I decide I'll let him go through the fence first while I hold it up and step on the bottom part. Now, as I'm holding the fence I'm still looking at the field. He gets a leg through and gets his upper body almost through when he gets caught on a barb. As that is happening it looks foggy from the distance, like a desert oasis type experience. As my eyes focus on the fog I notice that about 15 feet away on the other side of the fence is an animal. A cow maybe but all black. He says "we'' at least its not a bull". As he finished that sentence it stood on its hind legs to where it looked like a minotaur without the horse backend. As i see it start standinmg im pulling him back and freaking out. Cause up till this point it had just moved parallel to us but as I pulled him through it took steps toward us and we could see gleaming red eyes. It maybe took a good step toward us at most before I did a Sonic outta there back where we came from. I left my friend in the dust after the first 5 feet i could hear "wait for me, dude stop". I slowed just enough to see he was ok and I noticed that there was nothing where we were just at. Just thinking about it now I still remember that feeling, I hate it. It was like ice water and electricity in my veins when it stood up and moved at us. Terrifying. Still dont know what it was, was thinking a Jersey Devil type thing at one point. Probably better to not know right now.

To whoever recommended the Mysterious Universe podcast - thank you. It's really interesting and the hosts aren't unfun Tonay-level killjoys or mouth-frothing believers either. It's really good.

Hope you guys don't have mirrors in your home. :lol
Oh yeah, and I used to love those Scary Stories books, they had all of them in my fourth grade classroom the stories and illustrations were so incredibly eerie. Even when I came across them in my local library in 7th grade, I would still get unnerved standing there flipping though the pages in a corner :l
This thread is still going? :lol
Very peculiar.

Also the tall thin lady and the little white monsters sounds like a similar thing in Africa, where kids would wake up with clawmarks on their backs. My memory's a bit hazy on this though, I believe Credo Mutwa talked about this.
A Yowie would be able to tear the door off a 4WD, they've been known to break large trees
They're also very hairy, they have no necks, they are rarely seen and maybe they do enjoy kidnapping people for food or trophies
