story one by reddit user can you not do that please t zero when i was seven years old my father took my older brother and i to a cabin in the middle of literal nowhere for the week as a vacation we also took our cat with us everybody has their own room and i had the room furthest from the other two positioned right where the wood started there was a window right next to my bed and on the right side there was a tree right next to it that i remember getting to climb the previous
day without success the bedrooms were on the second floor by the way and the window didn't have any curtains or blinds to cover it one night i remember feeling really homesick and being unable to sleep the cat was lying on the bed with me and i was reading a comic book with a flashlight when around 2 am i began to hear a tapping on my window i assume that it was just a tree branch tapping on the window because it was a windy night until i began to hear whispers and i remember just freezing in
fear and feeling like a bunch of ice water had just been poured onto me i could hear whoever it was tapping and saying things like open up son it's daddy let me in luke it's cold out here and the worst one that i heard come on it's daddy i just want a cuddle i was too paralyzed by fear to do anything but just lay on my side facing away from the window terrified and close to tears i knew it wasn't my father and in my imagination i thought it was the boogeyman or some other creature
that would gladly kill me all the while my cat was hissing and clawing at the guy and i just remember holding him and burying my face and his fur because he felt like a safety net my one defense against this guy because i couldn't work up the nerve to call for my father and then i remember a horrible screeching noise and i turned around to look to see what it was and i could see this guy with the most maniacal grin that i have ever seen like something out of a horror movie dragging a pocket
knife against the glass making this horrendous noise and i screamed bloody murder the grin disappeared and he just looked like a combination of horrified and absolute full of rage but then my father came barreling into my room with his hunting rifle and as you can imagine seeing this made the guy panic and just sort of drop backwards my father looked at me to make sure i was alright just as my brother ran in he went off to go and catch the guy before he got away but unfortunately it wasn't a long drop and the man
probably only got a few bruises from it he was gone by the time my father got down there and we waited the night nobody slept before we packed up and went back home to this day i don't think they ever caught the guy though i remember my father filing a police report and me having to talk to the police and give a description and i'm still grateful for my cat who turns 14 this week and is still feisty as ever for providing me with comfort during that time to whoever was outside my window that night
i hope we never meet again story two by reddit user nina the weirdo420 this happened last summer so sorry if i don't remember a few details buckle up folks it was mid-july of 2019 when me and my friends were planning a weekend getaway at my friend's cabin it was her grandpa's when we would visit from canada and he let my friend stay there with her friends for the weekend our parents only let us go if we had a chaperone because who would let a bunch of 16 year olds and one 17 year old in a
cabin for a weekend my friend who we will call s decided to ask his older brother to look after us he had just turned 25 the week before so said yes because he had nothing else to do so it would be me and eight of my friends with my friend's brother it was the day before the trip and i was pumped i was still packing my bag and i got a call from an unknown number i thought it was one of my friends so i stupidly answered when i answered it was just some guy breathing
i hung up pretty fast and quickly texted my group chat what happened they said i was probably just nervous and excited for the trip i thought they were right and i was just being paranoid so i put it behind me and went to sleep the next morning was the day of the trip and my friends were picking me up we piled into two cars and drove three and a half hours to the cabin it was a nice cabin private beach five bedrooms and a fancy ass kitchen me and my friend jay shared a room also
probably should have pointed out that it was six girls and two guys so all the girl shared rooms the guy's shadow room and the chaperone slept on the couch my room was on the first floor near the kitchen which had a big window this is a key detail for later that night we were partying pretty hard as teenagers do all of us were drinking blasting music and being stupid it wasn't until 1 30 we all went to our rooms and slept it was about 4 30 when i got up and went to the bathroom when
i walked back i noticed something from the window it looked like someone's staring at me they waved and walked away and i did what any rational person would do scream my head off i woke my roommate and two of the other girls they asked what was going on and i was panicking saying there was a guy outside jay went to the kitchen with me to get water only to realize our chaperone wasn't on the couch and the door was open all of a sudden he runs back inside with what looks like blood on his hand
he asked me if i was okay and pretty much everyone in the house woke up and asked what was going on when we were all either hungover or still drunk our chaperone told us when he went outside to take out the trash bags full of alcoholic bottles he noticed what looked like the guy who fit my description tall fat wearing all black he asked him if he could help the guy and then the guy started attacking him which is when he ran inside my friend called the cops and they caught the guy the next day
when we were all eating breakfast apparently the guy was a peeping tom in the town where the cabin was and would look into the girls rooms and take pictures of them naked we were all able to enjoy the rest of our weekend but we all mutually decided never to go to a cabin again after that before i continue to the next story i want to say thank you for choosing to watch this video and i hope you are enjoying my narration if you are please show your appreciation by liking this video and subscribing to my
channel it really helps me out thank you story three by reddit user cmd 6901 this story is an encounter my grandmother had back in early 2001. my grandma and grandpa just moved into a very isolated cabin in the north georgia mountains to escape the fast-paced city life after they retired the house was perched on the side of the mountain on about five acres of their property with a very long gravel driveway from the so-called main road which connected the surrounding cabins the closest house was about one or two miles away as the crow flies and
three to four miles by road so yeah definitely a low-key spot that's very hard to find soon after they purchased the property they began the moving process and both grandparents ended up making separate runs from their old house to the new house one night my grandmother was alone at the new house in the mountains while my grandpa was back at the old house taking care of some final business last minute packing he decided to stay there for the night and avoid the two-hour drive back to the new house in turn leaving my grandma alone in
the middle of nowhere she was fine with that and decided to go ahead and sleep to prepare for more moving the next day at around 1am the house was dead silent and all of a sudden there was a very loud knock at the front door now keep in mind you could easily hear someone if they drove up the driveway but she never heard a car the front door was all glass so it basically sounded like someone was banging on a window she was terrified to say the least and decided to stay in bed and wait
it out [Music] the knocks came again this time even louder at this point her adrenaline and fear is through the roof not knowing who could possibly be at the door this late at night in the middle of nowhere once again she stays in bed and waits it out about five minutes passed and there are no more knocks she waits even longer to maybe hear a car drive away or something but no car ever drove off the only way someone could have been there is if they walked several miles through the woods to get there all
walked up the very long driveway nothing else ever happened that night and nothing ever came of it still a pretty strange and creepy occurrence for such an isolated place story 4 by reddit user liveykitty2332 not sure if this belongs here or let's not meet because while i did fear for my safety i wasn't actually the target of what happened so mods be sure to wag a finger at me if i made a bad call on to the story written on my mobile so sorry if something goes wrong this was a long time ago and i'm
27 now so i'm originally from michigan and my family had what they affectionately called a cabin way upstate if you've never been to upper michigan then i can describe it with one word trees literally miles and miles of trees with maybe a river just to spice things up the cabin which was really a two room dwelling with no electricity no ventilation only a wood stove if it got cold and worst of all no indoor plumbing which meant either a 10 minute drive to a campground to use its more modern outhouses or braving the wooden outhouse
my grandpa had built which had a habit of attracting spiders all this plus barely any signal and no wi-fi meant teenage me was super thrilled to visit it for a week during summer can you just taste the sarcasm i was going with my mum dad was out of the picture my two aunts who never married and my grandmother the lack of any male figures is important to this story for some reason my family's idea of a vacation has always been the go to the most remote place they can find and sit outside in lawn chairs
well i was more than can we please go do something anything type so i was kind of left to my own devices most of the time as a peace offering to me for the lack of anything to do and no privacy the cabin literally had one queen-size bed which my grandma got everyone else got crappy roll-up cots my mum set up a large four-person tent in front of the cabin and got a camping cop for me this kept me happy enough so how the nights would go is we would have a fire cook food talk
a lot i'd mostly be texting my then boyfriend now husband when the signal was decent then they would go inside and i'd go to my tent to change and go to sleep when we were visiting the door to the cabin was only locked by a hook and that was just to keep the door closed rather than any serious security and normally the door would squeak so much it would wake me up from my tent i would pull a blanket over my head to block out the morning sun and as an extra security to any bugs
that had gone in my tent only had my suitcase backpack and a table with a lamp and bug spray next to me i remember being asleep one minute then awake the next because someone was unzipping my tent i need glasses to see so when i opened my eyes i noticed it was super early in the morning it was that time of morning when everything is grayish blue and just enough light to see and i remember seeing a really tall figure standing halfway in my tent i also remember immediately knowing it wasn't anyone in my family
because the size and shape was all wrong i was frozen on the spot peeking out from under a blanket as this man i have never met and can barely see starts looking around my tent i'm only 14 or 15 at the time and i'm sadly very much aware of what grown men can do to teenage girls this guy is looking around for what feels like an eternity and even starts coughing a bit which really hammered home this was in fact a man because of the deep sound before pulling back out of the tent and moving
away towards the cabin i am still frozen in fear with a million thoughts going through my head who is this guy what does he want is he gonna hurt me or my family etc we had homes closest to us but most of the owners were gone for vacation or the homes were for vacation themselves and empty plus i really didn't know anyone in the area like my family did i hear this guy walking around and i think checking the cars nearby to see if they were unlocked they weren't so i broke free of my fear
and grabbed the only weapon i had and can think of a can of off deep woods i remember thinking i could use it like mace if he came back because compared to other sprays the deep wood stuff stings like a mug or when it's blown into your eyes trust me and just waiting to see what he would do [Music] the next thing i heard was our cooler opening we had two outside for drinks and unopened meats and everything else was kept inside and him rummaging around in the ice along with more coughing sounds finally stop
when i hear him tip one caller over then footsteps heading back behind the house and up toward the outhouse i'm still terrified this guy is around and i can't move i'm practically crushing the can in my hands and i force myself to counter 30 before i can do anything it was less than 20 feet from the tent to the door but i sprinted it and immediately began banging on the door as loud as i could calling for my mum my aunt opens the door and all i get is there's a man outside before i'm grabbed
by my pj shirt and practically flung inside the house by my 5 foot 2 inch 50 something pacifist aunt and didn't stop until i almost hit the other wall by now everyone is awake and the adrenaline finally wears off because i break down in tears while my aunts lock down the cabin and my mum now also crying holds me while i tell her what happened phone calls to the police are made and turns out we weren't the only one reporting a strange man walking around our property because the cops were already looking for this guy
someone comes and checks out our place the head had stolen some meat along with dumping our drink cooler my mum thinks looking for beer before going up the hill behind the cabin to his property turns out he was super drunk and had spent the whole night walking the woods drinking and looting what he could before going home to sleep it off he denied ever seeing me either due to my blanket or due to being wasted and i don't think anything serious ever came about it except maybe a drunken disorderly along with trespassing the guy's brother
came by later that week to apologize and pay us for what was stolen and my mom slept out in the tent with me for the rest of the trip more for her sake than mine i still remember once we had calmed down my mum asked me why i had a can of bug spray and getting embarrassed as i told her it was my makeshift mace everyone in the cabin laughed at that i think more out of nerves than anything else the bittersweet thing is i don't ever have to worry about that guy again because we
sold the cabin just this past year to the people next door who paid over value because they were really interested and i got a slice of the profits i hated the cabin but i will miss the memories now that it's only my aunt mum and me left from that side of the family sorry if this wasn't super exciting but i can promise you it's far more intense living it rather than reading it and to the drunk [ __ ] who thought it was okay to go running around people's property and terrify a teenage girl i
still buy off deep woods and i'm far less afraid to use it on your dumbass story 5 by reddit user billy may it's a long story but when i was younger my parents had a pretty large house that was provided by a business partner in my dad's business as long as we'd pay the property tax i guess he was holding on to the land and he did actually end up selling it to a developer not long after we moved out anyway it was on the edge of a large southern u.s city but still retained many
acres of woods around the outside and you drove down this long gravel road to get to it there was no gate or anything and it was fairly peaceful and nobody ever bothered us in the ten years except for once the house was essentially a log cabin and had eight bedrooms an eight car garage and a massive full-length deck out back and you could see the house was set on a slope and was three stories tall the middle floor was at ground level at the front of the house but a story up at the back making
the deck quite high you could park a car under it and then some the bottom floor was basically shared by my sister and i both in our early twenties and we drive around the back and down and park under the deck where we had a separate entrance to a living room and all the downstairs bedrooms it was like our own three-bedroom three-bathroom house now i think this is the place where i say we were not rich by any sense of the word and we weren't used to the implications of living in what was a massive
mansion and i'm not a nervous nelly but this house had way too many windows at ground level and doors to keep them all locked it was quite a chore going around making sure each night and my dad had a habit of leaving a few unlocked around the house every day i think there were 19 external doors and even more windows so it took a while to make sure each day the house was secure it was honestly big enough that someone could break a window on one end and you wouldn't know so i was always a
little worried about break-ins i guess i watched too many horror movies one night we walk out onto the upper deck it's dusk and getting quite dark and we sit down on the chairs chat and stare at the sky only we can hear something moving around under the deck it was faint but there was something scratching and we could hear a kind of shuffling around like someone was trying to move but be quiet but i thought nothing of it and thought it was a cat or raccoon as we'd seen them around before in a deep voice
kind of as a joke i say i know you're down there get out before i call the police the moment i say this a person in all black clothing sprints from under the deck and into the darkening woods needless to say we look at each other surprised and kind of scared upon investigating further the lurker had managed to open a bedroom window downstairs about two inches i never slept good in the house again and promptly screwed every ground floor window shut with security screws and bought a shotgun during the daytime i went walking the property
and discovered an area with a lot of cigarette butts and beer cans of various ages very close to the edge of the woods with full view of the back of the house i have no idea how long they had been watching us my thought is that they approached from the back woods and didn't even know we were home so we walked out into the deck above them they were caught and had to run off story six this story was posted by the reddit user eight toenails this past new year's was mine and my boyfriend's four-year
anniversary we typically don't do much so this year we decided to make it special by planning a romantic getaway at the time the two of us were living in seattle and wanted to rent a cabin in a snowy small town for the weekend we found a cabin on airbnb with a hot tub and we were sold the cabin was of course the last house on the road to get to it you had to drive down a small removed private road that ended in a roundabout off the roundabout was a long uphill driveway leading up to
our cabin we got to the cabin and it was snowy and beautiful the cabin itself sat on top of a garage and he needed to take stairs on the backside of the property to get to the front door we got inside and there was a booklet with all of the cabin's info outlined the book said that during the snowy season don't be surprised if their contracted snowplowers showed up to clear off the driveway okay sounds good we unpacked and realized that there was no service on either of our phones but the booklet told us there
was a landline in the cabin if we needed anything we spent the first night by the fire playing board games and drinking wine the weekend was exactly what we needed we planned to spend the next day in town and that night i booked us a reservation for a nice dinner we were gone almost all day only returning briefly to get dressed up to enjoy some good food dinner was great and we were excited to head back to the cabin for some champagne hot tubbing while at dinner the temperature had dropped and it snowed for the
first time that day coating everything in a fresh layer of powder we drove down the private road and got to the driveway at that point my boyfriend stopped the car headlights shining in front and asked if i noticed the new tire tracks i looked to the driveway hoping to quickly disregard the new tire tracks but there they were immediately we remember that the snow plows could have stopped by but the issue was we saw the tire tracks because of the snow and who plows in the dark we also knew that once we were at our
cabin we had no service on our cell phones so we figured we would head back into town and message our airbnb hosts and ask them if one of their friends had stopped by the apartments we waited for a while in town for a reply from our hosts but didn't hear back we could have called but at that point it was past 10 and we didn't want to be bad guests we figured we'd blew the whole thing out of proportion and might as well head back to the cabin after all i am big into true crime
spooky subreddits and horror movies so i was probably just psyching myself out my boyfriend drove us back and this time we actually drove up the driveway towards the top of the hill part of the driveway i noticed something my stomach dropped as i noticed footprints on the property we walked down the driveway and took a closer look to see if there were more footprints from what it looked like someone had drove up the driveway reversed down parked and got out of the car and walked onto the property since we had now also driven on the
tracks we couldn't find where the footprints ended the property was quite large with tons of trees and bushes and we knew that these footprints could go anywhere the moment we saw footprints we decided to call the police we figured it was better safe than sorry we would just have the officer go onto the property with us to check everything out we drove down the road till we got service called the police and waited for their arrival the policeman showed up and we followed him onto the property the police officer scanned the property and determined there
was no one out there obviously we were a little shaken up and a lot embarrassed we thanked the officer as he left needless to say neither of us wanted to sit in a hot tub in the dark woods after what had happened instead we locked the doors and watched a movie champagne-less we were both tired from the day and passed out pretty quickly at 3am we both woke up on the couch with the tv on and all the lights laughing about how the night didn't turn out as we planned as my boyfriend went to brush
his teeth we heard a noise it sounded mechanical and only lasted a few seconds we looked at each other and froze the garage door there are very few reasons that someone would need to open a garage door of a guest occupied airbnb at three in the morning like i said we woke up to all of the lights on and the cabin had lots of windows we knew that if someone was outside they knew we were there and they could see us i immediately grabbed the landline and dialed 9-1-1 we sat crouched in the airbnb praying
for the police to arrive we knew whoever had made those tracks was still on the property and this time they were making noise as i sat talking to the operator we heard a bang on our balcony as if someone threw something up onto it i was losing my absolute when the operator told me the police were nearby all of a sudden they were there we saw the police lights and watch them search the property we heard banging on the door it was the police we were okay at the door were two policemen one in front
of us and one a little behind kind of kicking around the snow and looking at the ground i immediately noticed the police officer in the back as the officer that did the initial check on the property the police officer told us that not only was the garage door shut but it was locked and again there was no signs of someone on the property we discussed leaving but the police officers said that the road conditions were too dangerous that time of night i looked at the police officer who had come out to the property twice and
i felt i had deeply disappointed him my boyfriend and i went back inside again locking all the doors and tried to sleep the next day we were leaving and while we survived the night i didn't feel right in the cabin anymore it was forever the spooky cabin in my head and i wanted to leave as we packed we heard the same noise we heard at 3am ah it was the heater a heater that sounds just like a garage the sound lasts the same duration my boyfriend looked at me and immediately said you need to give
up your murder shows and walked away as if as for the banging on the balcony it was just the perfectly timed fall of a pinecone i promise i'm not paranoid i think back on this story a lot and i'm embarrassed about how little came of it but i'm also incredibly grateful for the same reason but whoever drove onto the property and walked around thank you for triggering all of my nightmares please stay home and oh yeah let's not meet story 7 by reddit user boozy jack uzi so i moved to toronto in june 2017 from
the uk and one of my housemates at the time had invited me to come stay at his friend's cottage in rural quebec to which i quickly accepted to paint the picture this cottage was in well off the beaten track of the mountains and hilly terrain of quebec and it had a lake on its doorstop i believe this was one of maybe three cottages in the area the first night we got wasted and i woke up the second day pretty hungover however the four of us decided to take the car to get cigarettes and booze from
our convenience store on this mountain about 20 minutes away in the middle of nowhere we picked up beer and instead of getting straight back into the car we decided to crack a beer and go for a walk down this wooded trail across the road from the standalone convenience store we get about 15 minutes into this walk and i was getting the impression the trail hadn't been used in a long time there was brambles and trees taking up the path which we had to climb over however eventually we came to this stream which blocked us from
going any further on the other side of the stream there was what looked to be an abandoned cabin this is the creepy part we were laughing and joking i think maybe smoking a cigarette when all of a sudden this lady comes walking out from this cabin holding a handsaw and a drill she walks up to the other side of the stream and proceeds to just stare directly at us i started getting this super creepy feeling and i know everyone felt it too but just held face anyway the staring went on for about five minutes until
eventually she just went back into this leatherface looking shed or cabin i managed to snap a quick video on the video i paused it and took a screenshot of what hands down is the scariest looking person i've ever seen in my life thank you for watching and or listening to this video once again i hope you enjoyed my narration and if you did please show your appreciation by liking this video and subscribing to my channel i am almost at my next milestone of 25 000 subscribers for which i am planning a q a video if
