When you become someone’s nightmare. Scariest stories of nightmares.
“I stood inside for a couple of minutes deciding what to do while this huge truck was idling in with its headlight shining into my front window. Instead of hiding, I grabbed a butcher knife, stepped onto the deck and yelled: “What the fuck do you want?”—It turns out my neighbour forgot I was living there during the week (no car, biked to work), and told his visiting friend (a long-haul trucker) to park there overnight. The poor, unsuspecting man was checking in with his wife on the phone when I emerged (in a nightie) with a crazed look in my eyes, wielding a knife.”

What if he just didn’t murder you because you asked? What if he kills only unsuspecting people?
“I picked up a hitchhiker who was dressed like he worked road construction on my way to work early one morning. As we are driving through a small town there is a house all sectioned off with police tape and cops cars out front. The guy turns to me and says “There was a double murder there this morning…” and for that brief moment, I almost had a heart attack. Just something about having a stranger says that in my car was so horrifying as if I expected him to admit to it and kill me right then and there. After that moment faded I laughed and told him how creepy that sounded and we both laughed about it. And he didn’t kill me so it ended well.”

The freaky truck that reversed his heartbeat
“When I looked out the window, a white pickup truck was passing by our house on the other side of the street, then it made a u-turn. It drove past my house, stopped, reversed really slowly, the passenger turned on a high powered flashlight and shone the light into every window. Drove slowly forward again still shining the light, when the truck passed our house they turned the light off and waited. Reversed slowly, stopped in front of my house, waited, and then drove away.”
