4 True McDonald's Horror Stories Animated

[Music] my name is Tom and I'm 17 years old I'm one of those guys who's always looking for an excuse to film something scary and upload it to YouTube I don't know I think there's something addictive about the idea of going viral of millions of people seeing what you do and talking about it that day however I had no idea what I was in for the mcbarge as everyone called it was a forgotten relic of Expo 886 in Vancouver it had been a floating McDonald's restaurant built with the idea of showcasing technology and a luxury but the dream didn't last long after the fair it was abandoned floating on the water like an empty shell over the years it has become the center of many spooky stories some said they had seen lights come on at night others spoke of strange noises and figures moving inside for me it was the perfect place to shoot a viral video I wasn't going to do it alone of course I convinced Sam my best friend to go with me Sam had always been the kind of friend who had your back even if he complained all the time this is a bad idea Tom what if we get caught what if the boat sinks with us inside that's why we bring flashlights and Camera Sam if anything happens it'll be recorded he rode his eyes but he knew he was already in in the game we weren't going to back down the mcbarge was more deteriorated than I expected the paint was peeling and there was graffiti everywhere the smell of rust and stagnant water filled the air but I didn't care we made it inside without the doc security guard seeing us we walked along the floating gang way and after a couple of pushes managed to open a side door inside was chaos pieces of the ceiling hung down and the floor creep with every step there were overturned tables and chairs some still with rotting plastic trays on top still it had a strange charm as if time had Frozen I turned on my camera and started recording guys we're at the mcbarge this is crazy everything is exactly as they left it decades ago Sam didn't talk much but he wouldn't leave me alone either he was walking behind me looking everywhere as if he expected something to jump out at us after a few minutes we heard a noise it was like a thump something falling on the floor above we Stood Still what was that I don't know maybe the wind I admit that the noise didn't sound like the wind but I wanted to leave Sam alone or he'd want to leave we climbed Rusty stairs that creaked with every step it was as if the ship was alive breathing vibrating with us inside side the second floor was a mess there were shards of glass everywhere and the smell was worse however what caught my attention the most was a figure at the end of the corridor it was barely a shadow at first but when I shined the flashlight on it it moved did you see that don't even think about going near it let's go use your brain if that's not a ghost it's a person ignoring Sam I moved forward the figure had disappeared but now I could hear something a screeching sound as if someone was dragging metal across the floor it was constant rhythmic and getting louder suddenly a door at the end of the hallway slammed shut let's get out of here if we don't turn around I'll leave you alone I listened to Sam but ignored him I knew he wouldn't leave this was just what we needed for the video I pushed on the door but it wouldn't budge behind us we heard another noise this time it was footsteps slow and heavy when I turned around there was no one there but I could have sworn something was there the silence was broken when a rumble shook the place something fell from the ceiling just a few feet from us an old chair which shouldn't have been able to move on its own Sam let out a scream and I stepped back camera still in hand that's when I saw it a tall figure dressed dressed as Ronald McDonald the McDonald's clown was walking toward us his face paint was peeling and his suit was stained and torn most disturbing were his eyes they were sunken dark and giant Tom that's not real it can't be real we tried to run but the doors began to close on their own trapping us we kept running getting lost until we found a small exit that led to the main door as we were about to arrive the clown figure entered CED us he caught us halfway and grabbed us both by the neck we tried to fight it off but we did absolutely nothing the being did not move and pressed harder and harder worms and cockroaches started to come out of his unnaturally open mouth I felt like I was going to vomit the clown pushed us against the wall and squeezed us there I could feel all the worms and cockroaches falling out of his mouth climb up the wall and onto US I could feel them all over my body I tried to scream but I couldn't the fingers squeezed Tighter and Tighter through my blurred vision I saw Sam struggling just as I was eyes wild the clown was still closing in his movements Jerky like a broken puppet my camera fell to the ground and the clown laughed even harder than before when he was close enough I could smell him a sour stench like rotting meat then the scream it wasn't Sam's or mine it was a high-pitched almost inhuman scream that filled the whole place suddenly the pressure on my neck disappeared and I fell to the ground my vision blurred and everything went out I opened my eyes with a start we were at the entrance to the mcbarge lying on the cold wet floor Sam was beside me panting his eyes full of panic in front of us a security guard was shouting Furious what are you doing here get out of here before I call the police now we stood up awkwardly still dazed as we ran towards the deck neither of us spoke there was no point in trying to explain to anyone what we had seen when we were finally far enough away we stopped to catch our breath we both wanted to ask each other the same questions we both wanted to know if what we had seen was a dream or if it really happened we both lifted as if it were a dream but it didn't make any sense because if it was we dreamt the exact same thing we ended up assuming that everything that happened was true but that we never actually entered the place and it all happened in our heads that means that the only reason we are alive is because of the scream of the security guard who inadvertently saved us it was 2 days before I went back to the mcbarge this time I wasn't going to go in I just wanted to show my other friends the place from afar there was something that kept Haunting Me Something I couldn't get out of my head as I pointed out the Rusted windows I saw it the silhouette of the clown was there staring at me from inside he didn't move didn't try to hide he just raised a hand and waved as if he was waiting for me my name is Andrew and I work the night shift out of McDonald's outside of Chicago the place is in an area where the few customers who come in after 10: p. m. are usually students with insomnia couples or people who don't want to go home the nights used to be monotonous cleaning the friers filling the soda machines and dealing with customers upset about a botched order but tonight was not going to be the same from the moment I walked into work something about the atmosphere was different not in a supernatural sense but in the way the employees walked around in more of a hurry than usual and the manager Mark kept looking at his watch at about 11:45 p.

m. it was just Mark Chelsea at the register me in the kitchen and Frank who was cleaning the restroom area all seemed quiet until a man walked in his presence was impossible to to ignore tall short hair and a black jacket with spots that I didn't immediately make out Chelsea tried to be friendly but the guy didn't seem interested in good customer service he asked for a simple combo his voice was cold almost mechanical I paid attention because something about him made me feel alert not out of fear but because he seemed out of place I made the burger fast and passed it to Chelsea who delivered Ed with a strange smile the man said nothing he took the bag walked to a table in the corner and sat down so far nothing too out of the ordinary when he began to eat the whole place fell silent as if absorbing what little energy was left in that shift of dead people Mark always attentive to detail approached me and whispered something that I didn't understand at first did you notice his hands I turned to look at them and noticed they were stained but not with sauce or anything typical of a customer it was something dark almost dry I didn't comment but the details stuck in my mind a few minutes later another man came in this one was burlier with a poorly manicured beard and a cap covering part of his face he looked nervous as if he didn't want to be there he went straight to the counter but didn't order any food in instead he asked Chelsea if she had seen anyone in a black jacket come in recently Chelsea pointed to the man sitting in the corner the Burly man turned his head toward him and immediately tensed he looked like he was going to approach but Mark more Curious than cautious stepped in and asked if he needed anything the guy then pushed him out of the way and ignored him Mark tried to act like he didn't care but his face was pale no one said anything else but we all s something was up the Burly guy disappeared into the night and the Man in the black jacket was still eating as if nothing was disturbing him at about 12:30 in the morning the silence was interrupted by a rumbling sound at first I thought it was Thunder but when Frank came running out of the bathroom with a panicked expression I knew something was wrong there's someone outside banging on the trash cans Mark went to the door to take a look but couldn't see anything I'm sure it was a raccoon a raccoon making that sound would you rather go check it out no you're right it must be some kind of animal although if the noise continues we'll call the police okay just a few minutes later the man in the black jacket got up he walked towards the exit without saying a word leaving his half finished meal we watched him leave but he didn't go far he stood by the door as if he was waiting for something or someone no one dared to ask him what he was doing it was then that a black van appeared in the parking lot it had no visible license plates and the lights went out as soon as the engine stopped three men got out of the vehicle all dressed similarly to the Burly guy from earlier one of them had a bat and another was carrying something that looked like an iron bar the atmosphere in the restaurant became even more tense the three men who got out of the van walked towards the entrance with firm but calculated steps from the kitchen I could barely make out fragments of their conversation choppy words Laden with tension there was no doubt that something serious was about to happen Mark always wanting to appear as if everything was under control motioned for Chelsea to continue in the Box as if if nothing was wrong Frank was in the corner of the service area pretending to check the ice cream machine but his pale face betrayed his fear I from the kitchen couldn't take my eyes off of what was going on in front of me the man in the black jacket didn't moveed from his place by the door one of the men in the van the one carrying the iron bar approached first they whispered something but from where I was I couldn't hear it then the one with the iron bar pointed it at the chest of the man in the jacket demanding something a transaction I thought maybe money or something more obscure the man in the black jacket remained impassive but his posture changed slightly it was subtle but his presence seemed to grow as if he become more threatening without needing to move a muscle finally he pulled something out of his jacket a small package wrapped in dark plastic the man with the bar took it but instead of leaving he began to speak in a louder voice gesticulating aggressively something didn't seem right Chelsea visibly terrified left the box and joined us my heart was pounding but I couldn't look away the other two men started arguing with each other while the man at the bar waved the package in front of the man in the black jacket then he punched the man in the jacket in the face what happened next was almost unreal the man in the jacket took a step back bringing his hand to his face but he didn't fall his reaction was slow as if he was assessing the situation then with chilling calm he pulled a pistol from his waistband Mark frantically motioned us to duck behind the counter take cover we didn't see the impact but the sound of gunshots rang out loudly I covered my ears and closed my eyes tightly but even so I could still hear the screams and the sound of bodies falling when all was quiet I slowly raised my head the man in the jacket was standing around him the three men lay motionless on the ground then something even more terrifying happened the man turned his head slowly towards us for a moment our gazes met through the window it was as if he could see right into my soul then he started walking towards the entrance he entered the restaurant with firm steps his gun still in his hand we stood transfixed finally he broke the Silence with a dead pan voice I'm very sorry about this but I can't leave any Witnesses Mark tried to speak mumbling something about calling the police but the man raised his gun and Mark stopped immediately Chelsea and Frank had already started backing toward the back door run they managed to escape out the back door but I tripped and fell to the ground before I could get up the man was on me pointing the gun at me no hard feelings kiddo I closed my eyes expecting the worst but then the man paused something had caught his attention when I opened my eyes I saw him staring at the ceiling I followed his gaze and realized that he was looking at a security camera at the same time both the man and I heard the police sirens approaching the man let out a sigh as if he was annoyed oh so there were cameras I have to have a serious talk with someone he lowered the gun and looked at me one last time I am sorry for the mess with those words he ran out of the back door losing himself in the night minutes later the police arrived they surveyed the scene and questioned all of us who remained although we described the man in the black jacket it seemed clear that they would never find him everything pointed to an exchange between the mafia and local criminals that went horribly wrong lives ended that night mine almost Ended as well hello my name is Jake and like many of you may have done for a while I worked at McDonald's to be honest it wasn't the best job in the world but it paid the bills and gave me some extra money to hang out with my friends on the weekends however everything changed one night when I was assigned to the closing shift it was a night like any other night the restaurant was full of noisy customers there was a lot of fried food smell and the constant sound of the fryer and music from the speakers repeated endlessly and made my head hurt despite that everything was going well until I heard a strange noise coming from the children's play area intrigued I went over to investigate thinking that perhaps a child had wandered in where they shouldn't have I felt very uncomfortable with what was in front of me in the darkest corner of the playground was the Ronald McDonald animatronic this was one of the few McDonald's that had a Ronald animatronic and it was very easy to understand why it was really scary his empty eyes seemed to follow me wherever I went and his engraved laughter was so metrical I couldn't understand how a child who saw it wouldn't start crying and leave the restaurant but worst of all Ronald seemed to be moving this animatronic was not supposed to move I slowly approached to control him I knew it could move and that it was probably all part of my imagination but even so I did it just to be safe the animatronic was still as creepy as ever but it wasn't moving so I left the playground and went back to my companions before they finished their schedules after that the evening proceeded normally little by little my companions began to leave and leave me alone for the last hour it was my first time I'd done the closing alone but I'd been working there for a while and honestly I felt ready to do it just in case my co-workers reminded me of the procedure I had to follow to make sure my boss wouldn't scold me the next day and even stayed a little longer to make sure everything went smoothly for the last 30 minutes of work it was safe to say that I was completely alone this McDonald's was relatively small so it was to be expected that almost no one would come in at that time so I was focused on cleaning up and making sure I had a good closing just before I left with only a few minutes left I hurried to finish cleaning the game area and that's when I noticed something really strange the animatronics that Ronald animatronics that had Disturbed me before seemed to be in a different position at that moment I thought that someone had surely moved it but why would they do it to play a joke on me it couldn't be it was too subtle to be a joke and it was very likely that I wouldn't even realize it besides how would they have done it I got a little closer to Ronald to examine him closely and at that moment I got the scare of my life hey kids I'm Ronald McDonald oh my God what a scare you gave me you piece of junk Hey kid kid I'm Ronald McDonald hey kids I'm Ronald McDonald hey kids I'm Ronald McDonald a come on did you break down how do you turn this thing off okay that's enough Ronald McDonald for today ah great more work I must admit that the power outage had really caught me off guard I thought about cleaning up but I really couldn't and it was almost time for me to leave so I had every right to let people know what was going on and grab my stuff I grabbed my cell phone and turn on the flashlight Place definitely looked a lot more gloomy with a small Spotlight Illuminating the dark place I locked the door to make sure no customers were coming in and went to get the cleaning supplies I had forgotten in the game room and that's when I noticed something terrifying Ronald's animatronic it was gone I quickly looked at the floor to see if it had fallen down but that didn't make sense how could something so big fall down without making noise I pointed the flashlight everywhere but it wasn't there it was simply nowhere to be found sound in my worst moment of confusion I Heard a Voice coming from the bathroom door that voice that voice was very familiar hey kids I'm Ronald McDonald I quickly pointed to the source of the sound and that's when I saw it the animatronic was there standing in the dark next to the bathroom door staring in my direction with red eyes no no no no no this can't be this can't be happening hey kids I'm Ronald Ronald Ronald mcdonal Frozen I could only watch as the animatronic that seemed to be broken repeated his name constantly until I saw something else that made me forget about him hidden behind the huge figure of the animatronic looking at me from the shoulder of the robot there was someone else it was almost imperceptible but once you saw it you couldn't unsee it it was a silhouette like a shadow with fiery eyes and huge fangs I could distinguish how his face was black but with red spots and a horrible snake tongue that stretched out as if provoking me at that moment I was paralyzed with fear and the next words of the animatronics I heard were much closer hey kids I'm Ronald McDonald hey kids I'm Ronald McDonald hey kids I'm Ronald McDonald before I knew it the animatronic was running towards me at full speed his arms were up going for my neck that Ronald shaped animatronic was planning to choke me my only reaction was to close my eyes in fear and that's when a beam of light pierced my eyebrows confused and still ter terrified I opened my eyes again the light had returned and in front of me where Ronald animatronic had come from to attack me there was nothing when I turned around Ronald's animatronics were still in their usual position without moving but with a big difference his head was in another position it was looking at me as soon as my body could react again I grabbed all my things and left the place as soon as possible never to return the next day I handed in my resignation what was I going to do tell them that Ronald comes to life during the night insinuate that there was a demon in McDonald's all I tried to do was ask some of my other co-workers if they saw anything strange on the night shift but they were very confused by my question apparently only I experienced something like that in that McDonald's and you know I know what I saw it may be several years later but I still don't walk anywhere near that place just because I'm the only person who has ever seen that animatronic in action doesn't mean that no one else ever will and when that happens maybe that person won't be able to tell their story like I am now hola that means hello in Spanish hey Happy Meal guys it's a great day for a picnic isn't it McDonald man it's always a great day for a picnic you're right but today our picnic is going to be a bit different than the ones we've had before are we going to most of you must have ordered food from a fast food restaurant at least once in your lifetime these days it's stun by food delivery apps but back in the early 2000s it was delivered by a person from the fast food restaurant chain itself today I'm about to share an incident that happened with me and my father in the year 2006 before I continue with the story I'd like to tell you something about myself I'm Yuri Kim I was born in South Korea and moved to the US with my father when I was 16 after my mother's death my father got a better job opportunity here in the states and that's when we moved here the best part of being here was the food no offense but after eating traditional Korean food for 16 years the burger and french fries were very tempting so in our initial days I and my father used to try different types of foods every weekend and during our quest of tasting new foods we quickly realized that McDonald's was one of our favorite places to eat Not only was it cheap but the different types of Burgers Shakes nuggets and fries were delicious now that I look back at it I feel extremely silly however even today I sometimes sneak a burger just for Nostalgia the house we lived in was pretty close to downtown so whenever we were too tired or just lazy to get out there and get our food we used to order Burgers Shakes and fries from McDonald's usually back in the day the delivery people had specific areas of the Town assigned to them that means the guy who would deliver our order was the same all the time whenever he used to come to our home he used to say howdy Kims and a thick southern accent one evening dad was late from his office hey Yuri do you mind ordering our usual from the McDonald's I'm really tired so I won't be cooking today sure do you want anything extra nay the regular is good dad said and then went to his room to freshen up I sat there in the living room watching TV when the doorbell rang after half an hour I was expecting a knock following it and a howdy Kims and a deep southern accent but that never came this got me a bit worried Yuri darling let me get the door it could be anyone dad had walked out of his room and answered the door a man stood there wearing a McDonald's uniform and holding what seemed like our order when he saw Dad he said your order sir that would be $16.
