15 True Events So Disturbing They Defy All Logic

Sometimes the real world can be more unsettling than any fictional work. You may be surprised by the real-life stories in this collection.

What initially appear to be ordinary events soon turn into something much more eerie. These stories question everything we believe to be true, from perplexing encounters to eerie turns of events.

Story 1: I had a run of strange calls with the wrong number for a while. The call I received at around 11 p.m. stands out in my memory the most. I answered it while I was asleep, so I was unable to understand what was happening. Although it was loud, it sounded as though multiple people were making noise.

It sounded like a very melancholy barbershop quartet singing when I finally woke up enough to hear it—just a long “oooooooh” going up and down the scale in a minor key, with no words. I hung up because it was so strange and depressing.

The portion of the song I heard is still in my memory. When I looked at it again, I noticed that the number was restricted and that it was strange. © Reddit/Unknown author

Second Story: I once lost two hours of my day. My dad was also there because he was dropping me off at college and I was getting ready for it.

The news froze while we were watching it. We spent two hours turning the TV on and off in an attempt to get it to function again.

Therefore, either something strange happened, or we both fell asleep without noticing. Personally, I believe that we entered a different dimension. © Reddit/FailingDegree91

Story 3:

Story 4: My 5-year-old stepson enjoys sharing stories with me about his past life, when he lived away from us and had a different name. I’m always uneasy when he sporadically shares details about this previous life, especially when the names of the people or places are ones we’ve never discussed or used around him.

In California, he told me, he lived in a city that had an A at the end and a T at the beginning (I looked it up; there are like two). He has expressed on multiple occasions that he misses taking his red sports car to the beach. We’re from the East Coast, so we’ve never taken him to a beach or traveled to California.

He has also mentioned returning home to discover his new kitten had gotten out of his apartment. He gave me her name, described her, and said that it still makes him sad sometimes. © Reddit/AnxiousOwlette

Narrative 5:

I’m using my computer in my room. I launch Google and start typing. I have the text I want to type in my head, but I am unable to type the words for the life of me. It was incoherent all the time.

Despite my three attempts, I was unable to type what I knew I wanted to. Words wouldn’t even escape its lips. I’m not sure why this occurred, but I felt better after going for a walk. © Reddit/ValorFiend

Narrative 6:

Story 7: This occurred a year ago. The light was on and I was sitting in my room. I made the decision to get up and turn it off because it was getting late. I stood up, took two steps, and then all of a sudden I was back on my bed, but without the light.

Story 8: While attending culinary school, I was 22 years old and getting ready for a baking class at 6:30 a.m. I had the clear idea that I should go to my closet and get my chef’s coat. In the next moment, it was neatly spread out on my bed. I can’t remember ever taking it out. I was frightened.

When I was 25, a few years later, I was working as a waiter. I had a carafe of iced tea and an empty glass in my hand. In the next moment, my coworker asked me if I was alright while I was holding a full glass that was already covered in condensation.

Those are the only memory lapses I’ve ever experienced, though they may have been seizure-related. When it occurs, it is extremely frightening. © Reddit/Psych_Nurse_18
