Redditors deacribe a local myth/folk tale that gives them the creeps.

r/missbrenduh Local myth? There is a small, small, small playground next to a weird overpass in our city. Like, two swings and a slide. It’s so hard to get to, I don’t even know why the city put it there. It’s not lit for night use except by a single street lamp. If you use the overpass at night, it looks so eerie and sometimes the wind makes the swings move slowly. In high school, everyone would say a little girl died there and if you don’t hold your breath when going over the overpass, she’ll claim your soul. I still hold my breath. And I’m 37.

A decommissioned offshore lighthouse. Even though the tower is locked and all utilities have long been disconnected, residents viewing it from the shore have witnessed the beacon lighting up randomly late at night, 2-3 times per year. The structure remains solidly locked, and no boats have been reported in the area when the sporadic illumination occurs.

r/Honk_420_Goose Wendigos. Creepy af. As a canadian who DREAMS of living in rural Quebec but is currently a city boy, These mother fuckers out their living their best life as a cannibal. Also i’m waiting for my mice to turn into mini mice-igos, one of my three mice recently passed away (i hope peacefully, or was murdered) my other two mice ate her corpse. Never found Hilda’s skull. One of my mice is white and was dyed pink after eating Hilda. I’m waiting for my demise at the hand of my little mice-igos. To sum it up: Wendigos be out there living their best life stealing my future home. And my mice are probably under going the transformation into mice-igos.

r/dragon_barf_junction the warwick crooner. on the corner of chestnut and elm, in the backyard of 361 elm st. every full moon, on the rusty old swingset, a squat figure swings, vocalizing hyms of yore. those fools who dare spare a glance are immobilized, forced into observation until his bluetooth headphones die and he goes in to charge them. after the encounter, his victims are never quite the same. the crooner, he visits them in thier dreams, haunts thier nightmares. they see him every night as thier eyes finally close.

r/LR104201 Sinterklaas, he is a catholic “child friend” who takes kids back to Spain in a sack if they are naughty. I still have shivers down my spine about Spain, because my mother threatened me with Spain to hell and back.

r/randomiaedjew

Ever heard of a shin sales or a sheid.. A Jewish demon that can take different forms and drives people insane if your lucky enough to get away from it alive… The only way to combat it is by holding on to your thumb facing it and saying you and are one, then the shaid will say you and are two, then you must respond you and are three and repeat this until 101, all the while it drives you mad…

r/galactic_javelina There is apparently something called a hoopsnake that lives by the river. It bites onto it’s tail and chases after you rolling like a hula hoop and I find that quite fucked up.

The Sawney Bean tale. I couldn’t sleep without a light on for a full week because it was so traumatizing. recommend not looking it up if you have a weak stomach.

r/normal-hu-man I live in upstate new York in the Adirondacks. And up here theirs always a sense of mystery in the air especially if you go to the more rural parts there’s bigfoot sightings strange happenings. Like for instance the tourism guide will tell you that cougars are extinct here however there have been many sightings of them my dad had personally saw a big cat dash across the road while on his way home from work. Along with the strange disappearance of one ted Nugent who was a pro hunter and ex army that just disappeared into thin air on a hunting trip. If you ever heard of missing 411 incidents this was one of them. It was said that when ted went missing the forest was dead silent (normally in the woods you hear something birds mice etc) anyway a few weeks ago I went out hunting solo I was sitting against a tree on top of a hill when suddenly the forest went dead quiet had a strong sense of being watched at first I played it off saying OH you’re just paranoid but as the sun went down the feeling got stronger and stronger until I said OK I’m just gonna cut this trip short. Was I paranoid was it paranormal I DONT KNOW
