Tiny Tales of Everyday Horror
Strange
House Guessed
I got a pretty good deal on my house, and that’s how it starts, right? The previous owner had died, so I became responsible for all the stuff in it (that’s how it REALLY starts). This is not that kind of story, though, but it is a little weird. While sorting through the stuff, I […]
MoreAt Some Point, You Really Should Stop Believin’
It’s amazing how you don’t see these incredibly bright, incredibly huge red flags until after the fact, but I used to date a guy, he worked at this wing place that did karaoke nights. One Halloween, he was working in costume as Fred Flintstone. I came in to visit dressed as Wilma. He was encouraged […]
MoreMixed Signals
This guy never meant to do this, I know. But there were these big glass mugs from one of the local places. Really heavy. Well, he threw this mug and it hit this other guy in the head. It did some real damage. I got called in to donate blood for this case because of […]

MoreWhen You Move a House, What Comes With It?
I’m still not sure to make of what happened that Summer. All I know is that we all experienced it. It was me, my brother and my mom. We were living in this rented house. It was weird because this house was plucked up off the ground in Miami and plopped down on some cinder […]
MoreWe always inspect the new tenants, but only once did we approve.
When I moved into my current house, I slept on a mattress on the floor for the first few days. The house has all hardwood floors. One of the first nights there, I swear I heard a skittering of claws/nails across the floor that brought me out of a deep sleep. Heart racing, I bolted […]
MoreThree’s Company
The dorm room I stayed in in college was haunted. First there were a few silly things that could maybe be explained, like a snapchat filter reacting to the same part of the wall. It was the dog filter and it would open and close its mouth when we asked it questions. Also, there were […]
