- Motoring along the road, you pass an caved in farmhouse, fire-gutted and rotting in a weed-choked field. On every single fencepost along the length of the abandoned field sits a single crow, and they turn to stare at your car as it passes.
- Staring out at the tree in the backyard, you see that it is moving, perhaps the leaves rustling in the wind. But the movement is irregular, pulsing, breathing. When you move closer, you can see that it is not leaves, but hundreds of thousands of butterflies, camping out for the night during their annual migration, wings beating slowly as they cool down.
- Walking on a crisp autumn morning, you happen to be looking at a tree across the street when you hear a brittle snap. In less than a minutes time, every single bright yellow leaf from the maple falls to the ground, all at once.
- Standing in the entrance to a sea-cave along the shore, you hear a moaning from deep within, almost a caterwauling, and it changes pitch over several seconds before a blast of cold wind comes blasting out of the cave-mouth, blowing you back (and quite possibly knocking you over). It reeks of rotting seaweed and fish and feels like a monsters salty breath, even if you know in your mind that the rising tide has pushed into an interior cavern and displaced all of the air within.
- Peacocks. Scary sh*t, man. (No really! Stop laughing at me!) You're walking alone at night and some walking feathery lawn ornament suddenly screams behind you, a sound that resembles a cross between a woman shrieking for help, and a jaguar pouncing for your neck.
- true story...
I once had the oppurtunity to listen to some old country preachers describe instances of demonic possession they'd *witnessed* (how the people sounded, voices, etc...this was creepy in itself...and don't ask why I was there, just morbid curiosity is all)
After hearing them out, it was dark by the time I began to drive home, down a lonely dark road. I turned on the radio and began to sing. Suddenly, I heard a high-pithced howling...*Raawwrrr*. I jerk my head to the right, and there are two golden eyes level with mine, only inches away.
With demons on my brain, I do a couple of 360's on the road, both me and the tires screaming...
Once I come to a stop and finally manage to calm down, I don't know whether to laugh or kill the cat that had climbed into my car while I had left the window down...
- You notice that all of the files on your work computer were accessed at 00:00 last Friday. Your building was closed on that date, and no one had access to your office. When you look at the files, you find phrases... 'Can't find the way out...' 'The blood is in my eyes, c-'
'in veiled men, wait' and 'too soon too soon too soon'.
- You receive an email at work that warns you about going home. The email came from your home email account and was sent while you slept last night. It's not a spoofed message.
- Photos that you have stored on your computer look fine. However, whenever you print them out, you notice that a person's shadow is always visible, even when lighting would preclude it being seen. It's always in a different pose than you or they are in. It looks like it's in pain.
- Monitors and TVs emit a strange whine and static when you come around. Eventually, they start to fuzz over.
- Late at night, you turn on the TV. Static. You call the cable company for service. No answer. You look outside. No lights are on anywhere. You go outside. You don't hear the sounds of cars in the distance. No dogs. Nothing. It is completely silent. Then, you hear a slithering/scraping sound...and it grows closer.
- Static on the TV suddenly seems to take on the shape of a face and hand pressed to the inside of the glass. The hand starts to bang frantically. Though you don't hear the sound, you turn off the TV. When you examine the TV, you notice a small crack on the screen. The crack is on the inside.
- You have a walk through the old part of town on a late autumn afternoon. You come here more often and know the place pretty well. But on your way you spot a road you haven't seen before where some sort of fantasy fair is held. Everyone's dressed up as knights and citypeople of the old. And they are really into character here, they all stare at you. It's all a bit too weird and you leave the street again quickly.
The next day you pass the place once more, but the street is gone.
- You go to be after a excellent party and fall into a deep sleep.
When you wake up, your body is stiff, your mind is still hazy and you stagger downstairs for a cup of koffee. Every single joint is as stiff as wood and it all takes so much more effort. Even your eyes are lazy and you can't see stuff well enough. coffe doesn't improve the situation either.
You go to teh mirror to see how bad you look. the image is hazy so you have to move closer. Then you see an man who must be in his 80's.
- In your dream you experience your head being cut off. And it hurts like hell. So much you even wake up. Just in time to remove that large knive you where cutting your throat with.
- Each month on the 5th you hear footsteps in the room above you. If you are on the top floor it sounds as if there is someone on the roof. If you are on the roof then it sounds as if someone is poking the floor below you with a broom.
Each time there is no one on the floor the noises come from.
- One day for no apparent reason you get a small sum of money added to your bank account. There is no apparent reason for this mystery sum finding it's way in. The bank tell you that the donor asked to remain anonymous. The next day you accidently spill coffee over one of your co-workers and badly scold them. You check again at the bank about a week later and find that a much larger sum has been added. This time around well over 1million. Again the donor is anonymous The next day you accidently knock over a bicyclist on the way to work.
- Sometimes you trip up, cut yourself while peeling potatoes, fall down the stairs or experience any other such mishap you hear the laughter of a little girl. You realise two things: the laugh only happens when you are alone and you seem to experince lone accidents more and more often. One day you hear the laugh while in the toilets during a trans-atlantic plane journey.
- Everytime you kiss someone the aroma of fresh blood wafts its way into your nose until you break contact.
- You are sitting in the entryway to a building of some sort. A friend or accauntance walks through and has a brief conversation with you then walks out. Then the same person walks through and begins the same conversation with you again, if questioned to why they are walking through again they look at you bemused.
Then the same time next week it happens again.
- Mail with no return address addressed to other people who you have never heard of arrive each day in your post. If you open this mail you find that someone is writing to someone else but despite the fact you never write back and keep all the letters they seem to be getting replies
