Story 1:

My father had a heart atta:ck, and I rushed to the hospital at 2 a.m. They wouldn’t let me into the ICU, but hours later, a kind nurse let me see him. Months later, my father called, urging me to turn on the news. Turns out that the nurse wasn’t a nurse at all.

She had been arrested for pretending to be one, and some patients had even worsened under her care. Investigators found out she had a serious mental condition, and although she attended nursing school, she never graduated. Years later, she somehow managed to infiltrate a hospital and deceive everyone. Thankfully, she was caught, and I’m relieved she never treated my father directly.

sitting in the corner of my room. He had blue eyes and was quiet; all he ever did was look over me. He was kind and felt like a guardian angel or something. Then one night, he wasn’t there anymore, and I remember hearing voices in my closet telling me to stay away. It felt… wrong. I felt stuck to my bed and couldn’t sleep because I felt something standing over me that didn’t belong there. I couldn’t see it, but I could feel it. I made my mom sleep next to me for weeks after that. © bahumbug_ / Reddit

Story 13:

I was working at that time, and my workstation was close to the window. My sister was calling me from outside. She was mumbling, so I didn’t hear what she said, so I asked why she was outside. Still crying, she asked me to open the door. As I was about to go outside my room, ready to open our house’s door, my sister came out of her room.

The one who called out to me was not my sister. © FailureSpecialiste / Reddit
