The eight year old who isn't afraid of anything *save for thunder* is home alone in his house

 

After he turns the light off in the room he heads off to bed, but before then he turns back into the dark room.

 

"I'm heading to bed," he said. "Good night."

 

"Good Night," They (whatever is hiding in the dark) replied. "We'll be there in just a minute."


okay ponies, give me all your treasure.

he was saying good night to what lurks in the darkness... and it replied back... it basically says that he knows that there is something that lurks in the shadows, and whatever it is, its something that lurks in his room while he goes to bed.

 

Its one of those things where...

 

say if your alone in the house and you hear some noise... you're scared and you don't know what to do...

 

"Hello? Anyone there?" you ask.

 

"No!" a voice replies.

... here is another short one, bit different from my others.

 

 

 

 

Your reading this sentence.

 

You realise what time it is.

 

I'm Sitting at my desk.

 

Now I'm standing out side your window.

 

You look.

 

But I'm already gone.

 

You return to your computer.

 

I'm at your window watching you.

 

You turn back.

 

I'm Gone again.

 

You return to the computer

 

You read "Knife"

 

You remembered that you forgot to wash dishes.

 

Don't worry I took care of it.

 

Now I'm standing behind you.

 

Whats in your hand.

 

Look, now its in my hand.

 

Its your life.

 

You quickly spin around

 

I'm gone.

 

You look at the computer, feeling safe.

 

I never left.

 

Now I'm on a horse.

You have an interesting mind, Captain Marvelous. Suddenly now I'm imaging the Old Spice guy, sitting on a horse, holding a knife in one hand and my life in the other. That's a bit creepy. :o

"CandyCove"

Subject: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

Does anyone remember this kid’s show? It was called Candle Cove and I must have been 6 or 7. I never found reference to it anywhere so I think it was on a local station around 1971 or 1972. I lived in Ironton at the time. I don’t remember which station, but I do remember it was on at a weird time, like 4:00 PM.

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

it seems really familiar to me…..i grew up outside of ashland and was 9 yrs old in 72. candle cove…was it about pirates? i remember a pirate marionete at the mouth of a cave talking to a little girl

Skyshale033

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

YES! Okay I’m not crazy! I remember Pirate Percy. I was always kind of scared of him. He looked like he was built from parts of other dolls, real low-budget. His head was an old porcelain baby doll, looked like an antique that didn’t belong on the body. I don’t remember what station this was! I don’t think it was WTSF though.

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

Sorry to ressurect this old thread but I know exactly what show you mean, Skyshale. I think Candle Cove ran for only a couple months in ‘71, not ‘72. I was 12 and I watched it a few times with my brother. It was channel 58, whatever station that was. My mom would let me switch to it after the news. Let me see what I remember.

It took place in Candle cove, and it was about a little girl who imagined herself to be friends with pirates. The pirate ship was called the Laughingstock, and Pirate Percy wasn’t a very good pirate because he got scared too easily. And there was calliope music constantly playing. Don’t remember the girl’s name. Janice or Jade or something. Think it was Janice.

Skyshale033

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

Thank you Jaren!!! Memories flooded back when you mentioned the Laughingstock and channel 58. I remember the bow of the ship was a wooden smiling face, with the lower jaw submerged. It looked like it was swallowing the sea and it had that awful Ed Wynn voice and laugh. I especially remember how jarring it was when they switched from the wooden/plastic model, to the foam puppet version of the head that talked.

mike_painter65

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

ha ha i remember now too. ;) do you remember this part skyshale: “you have…to go…INSIDE.”

Skyshale033

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

Ugh mike, I got a chill reading that. Yes I remember. That’s what the ship always told Percy when there was a spooky place he had to go in, like a cave or a dark room where the treasure was. And the camera would push in on Laughingstock’s face with each pause. YOU HAVE… TO GO… INSIDE. With his two eyes askew and that flopping foam jaw and the fishing line that opened and closed it. Ugh. It just looked so cheap and awful.

You guys remember the villain? He had a face that was just a handlebar mustache above really tall, narrow teeth.

kevin_hart

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

i honestly, honestly thought the villain was pirate percy. i was about 5 when this show was on. nightmare fuel.

Jaren_2005

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

That wasn’t the villain, the puppet with the mustache. That was the villain’s sidekick, Horace Horrible. He had a monocle too, but it was on top of the mustache. I used to think that meant he had only one eye.

But yeah, the villain was another marionette. The Skin-Taker. I can’t believe what they let us watch back then.

kevin_hart

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

jesus h. christ, the skin taker. what kind of a kids show were we watching? i seriously could not look at the screen when the skin taker showed up. he just descended out of nowhere on his strings, just a dirty skeleton wearing that brown top hat and cape. and his glass eyes that were too big for his skull. christ almighty.

Skyshale033

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

Wasn’t his top hat and cloak all sewn up crazily? Was that supposed to be children’s skin??

mike_painter65

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

yeah i think so. rememer his mouth didn’t open and close, his jaw just slid back and foth. i remember the little girl said “why does your mouth move like that” and the skin-taker didn’t look at the girl but at the camera and said “TO GRIND YOUR SKIN”

Skyshale033

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

I’m so relieved that other people remember this terrible show!

I used to have this awful memory, a bad dream I had where the opening jingle ended, the show faded in from black, and all the characters were there, but the camera was just cutting to each of their faces, and they were just screaming, and the puppets and marionettes were flailing spastically, and just all screaming, screaming. The girl was just moaning and crying like she had been through hours of this. I woke up many times from that nightmare. I used to wet the bed when I had it.

kevin_hart

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

i don’t think that was a dream. i remember that. i remember that was an episode.

Skyshale033

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

No no no, not possible. There was no plot or anything, I mean literally just standing in place crying and screaming for the whole show.

kevin_hart

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

maybe i’m manufacturing the memory because you said that, but i swear to god i remember seeing what you described. they just screamed.

 

 

Jaren_2005

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

Oh God. Yes. The little girl, Janice, I remember seeing her shake. And the Skin-Taker screaming through his gnashing teeth, his jaw careening so wildly I thought it would come off its wire hinges. I turned it off and it was the last time I watched. I ran to tell my brother and we didn’t have the courage to turn it back on.

mike_painter65

Subject: Re: Candle Cove local kid’s show?

i visited my mom today at the nursing home. i asked her about when i was little in the early 70s, when i was 8 or 9 and if she remembered a kid’s show, candle cove. she said she was suprised i could remember that and i asked why, and she said “because i used to think it was so strange that you said ‘i’m gonna go watch candle cove now mom’ and then you would tune the tv to static and just watch dead air for 30 minutes. you had a big imagination with your little pirate show.

You remembered that you forgot to wash dishes.

How'd you know? I just noticed this morning that I had forgotten to set the dishwasher for tonight. XD

 

I don't know if I can write scary ghost stories, seeing I regard them as... souls.

Though, I've been having nocturnal experiences, which seem too lucid (and FEEL real) to be night terrors, if that counts. I don't know if I should share all the details though, as they are pretty disturbing.

God stop quoting the entire story. It's already TL DR -_____-

I have no ghost stories but this is the closest thing I can get

Have you ever heard the expression “An apple a day keeps the doctor away?” Most assume, with no reason to think otherwise, that it is simply an easy-to-remember rhyme that stresses the importance of eating healthy foods to young children. But the saying did not originate as a harmless reminder. It was born in a frontier town in the early years of the Gold Rush, where food was scarce and money even scarcer.

 

 

One August, when a bad drought had struck the region, a series of bloody killings swept through the town. Every night, a single house would be broken into, and anyone who saw the invader would be swiftly, brutally slain. Nothing was ever stolen, save for a few scraps of food.

After two weeks of this, the local grocer set out a few apples and a glass of milk in the town square overnight. He then hid in the tower of the church, hoping to catch a glimpse of anyone who came by.

Fighting fatigue, the grocer waited for any sign of life below. Just after midnight, he was rewarded by a chilling sight; a man, carrying a black bag stuffed with dully shining metal tools and covered from head to foot in cloth bandages, staggered into view. He paused at the sight of the apples and milk, then whipped his head around, as if looking for the one who dared to patronize him. Seized with fear, the grocer ducked out of sight, staying hidden ’til sunrise.

The strange man had only taken one of the apples, and didn’t even touch the glass of milk. No houses were broken into, and no one was killed. For decades, the town continued to place out an apple or two every night, even long after a single apple stopped disappearing.

Sorry for bumping this, but something disturbing happens to me sometimes in the early morning. Not often, but, say, every few months in average. Mostly when I'm sleeping on my stomach.

It happened just tonight, waking me up around 6:30am. It disturbed me so much I just sat there, for fifteen minutes, rubbing my head and trying to shake it off.

I sometimes wonder if it's just a morning terror, but I don't know if morning terrors include the feeling of such a strong presence. The fact that it only occurs in the aforementioned position might indicate that the cause is lack of oxygen.

 

I was having a controlled, lucid dream (nsfw) when I felt myself wide awake in my bed. I was still in a daze, physically numb and paralyzed.

All of a sudden, I heard breathing behind me. I don't believe it was a delayed perception of my own, because I could hear mine as well and the two had different tempos. It was accompanied by the strong feeling that someone was there, right on top of me.

That's when the thing behind me leaned over and started blowing air onto my neck. I don't think it was a current of air in my bedroom because: A- it wasn't something continuous, really felt AND sounded like someone breathing in THEN blowing out air; B- the air started off fresh, but then got warmer and warmer.

All the while, I felt like it was trying to mentally subdue me. Even to physically enter me. I had to resist it like no tomorrow, even though I nearly gave up at one point because I thought I couldn't take the physical and mental pressure anymore.

 

When I could finally get over the daze and move, the sound of blowing became continuous and, VERY SLOWLY, faded into the rumbling of blood flowing in my head.

Now THIS, is something I don't recall from the previous times; might be because I wasn't paying attention to that until now. Everything else, from "I felt myself wide awake" to "pressure anymore", is common to my previous experiences.

 

Now don't get me wrong, I don't believe in demons. In fact, I recall "abandoning" myself once or twice before, and the creepiest result was the feeling of the "entity" flowing down my head and along my spine. Nothing like being possessed or sleepwalking (that I know of).

I do, however, consider the existence of spirits and other intangible entities to be probable. The possibility of me being bait for something like a ghost is somewhat disturbing. This one might be harmless, but if it's attracted, who knows what else could?

When I was young I recall waking up and seeing a dresser that didn't belong in the house in the middle of the hallway, also there seemed to be a sort of fog on the floor. I think though that it was just a really crazy dream.

I've had too many to count...My house is haunted.

There are places and people like that, sometimes even families, experienced in the paranormal.

BTW I don't like these names, "paranormal" and "supernatural". Things like this are more common than rationalists might think. They're very much normal, natural phenomena.

It's just that, there are those who've had personal experiences, and those who haven't witnessed them firsthand. And in either group, those who admit their existence, and then those who deny it no matter what.

 

But I'm digressing, this is a thread about (aforementioned) personal experiences and encounters.

Once when I woke up I heard someone get up from playing on my piano. It scared the shat out of me, and no one was there.

 

Another time when I was 12 I heard a huge growl that sounded like a demonic tiger thing. Apparently my parents didn't hear it.

My sisters old doll is all I can think of. From odd noises coming from my sisters room when no one was there and her room being re-arranged, she eventually became freaked out by it and decided to trash the thing. Seriously that thing had a really freaky aura to it and it's eyes were the creepiest thing on earth.

Another time I seen this tall person in a suit in the trees behind my house, at first I thought it was my imagination then I knew that there was SOMETHING there. (slenderman??? O_o)

The creepiest part... I wasn't scared. I felt happy, almost excited.

 

I had like 20 other encounters like this, but now it doesn't happen.

I am fairly sure this was just my imagination now, but when I was 6 I could have sworn I was being haunted (I blame it on my OCD-terrors, I felt if I didn't check everything some horrible thing would befall me and those I loved). On and off I would swear something was watching me from the hallway, I would hear noises from far off that would seem to get closer, and when I did finally fall asleep I had "falling" dreams.

 

Then one night I noticed a very eerie prescence, and after looking around my room from under my covers my eyes became fixated on my ceiling fan. The shadow the fan was casting (due to a light outside of my window) created the face of a baby with demon eyes, staring right at me... It wasn't some vague shadow either, it clearly looked like an old china doll's head and it scared me silly. After that I never felt that prescence or saw the face again (although the sounds and irrational worrying continued until I got over my OCD). To this day though I occasionally feel like someone is watching me as I sit at my computer late at night, but I also listen to horror movie music at that time so it is probably my fault! :P

 

Another occasion where I am still unsure if it was just my imagination was in my high-school's basement. My school was one of the first with a pool west of the Mississipi (go Tech!), and was built in 1917. Our old pool is down the hall from the oil-boilers in the basement and is now covered with boards, they let us walk on it (it is safe) and I came to one spot where I could see through into the bottom just a little. (it was a little behind a large maching they were storing). I suddenly felt as though something was looking back at me from the coal black hole (15 ft, 5 above the pool and then the pool was 10). I then felt as though I was being drawn in, and I became very dizzy. Then all returned to normal and I walked away feeling strange and disturbed.
