30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online I believe there is a name for this phenomena, but I would never know how to go about googling such a thing. But this was around 2013 or so, and I was having a smoke in front of my apartment on the front steps in the middle of the day— around noon or so. I got up to head back, and just for a few fleeting seconds while looking at the building, it looked totally unfamiliar. I knew I lived there, I knew it was my home, I knew I had just stepped outside only five minutes previously, but my brain was giving me some kind of indication that I had never seen this place before and that there was danger inherent. I just kind of violently wagged my head back and forth— like an aggressive “no” gesture— and was immediately back to normal. But I’ll never forget that moment, it was like my concept of reality had very momentarily just cracked.

It's a phenomenon called "Jamais vu", the opposite of "Déjà vu"..

This happened to me driving home from work once, for many seconds I had no idea where I was. It was the same way home I took every day.

It's a kind of disassociation. It can happen sometimes when you look in the mirror and it's almost like you're outside of your own body looking at a stranger. It can be caused by getting wrapped up in intense thoughts and then your brain doesn't bounce back into its normal waves and everything looks suddenly strange. If it happens once in a while, it's no problem. If it happens on the regular, chances are you have trauma or issues that could use some help.

Sadly i can't upvote this more. Mostly likely explanation is dissociation (derealisation or depersonalsation). If it happens very rarely and lasts only moments threre's no need to worry. But if it happens often or the episodes last hours one should consult a doctor. Could be trauma, could be a side effect to a med or drugs.

It could have been a micro-mini TIA (transient ischemic attack or mini-stroke), which knocked the brain cells responsible for visual recognition off line for a few seconds.

That's an extreme and unnecessarily alarming conclusion to jump to. It's a 99.9% probability that it was Jamais Vu, which is the opposite of déjà Vu; it translates to "never seen". There are other symptoms that manifest, it's not just what the OP described, a few seconds of confusion. It's incredibly unlikely it was a TIA.

It sounds like dissociation. I often feel like my own body is unfamiliar and I feel very surreal. Or that my boyfriends eyes have nothing behind them. That scares me.

Often when I'm very tired and/or on a cold/allergy medicine buzz I'll wonder if I actually spoke, and quickly lose my train of thought more than usual. Also, i've forgotten what shirt and /or jeans I'm wearing; idk if this is part or a type of what you're guessing. Or like, "What just happened/did I hear?", "Did that(I) just happen(hear)?"

This happens to me more often than I'd care to admit, but it's because I live in Florida, where the scenery changes every couple of months, from woods to apartments, from small buildings to large ones. I get that awful feeling of having no idea where I am until I come upon a cross street to help me re-orient myself.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online My dad, brother, and I went to a movie theater one day in Florida, was around 4ish, so it was getting darker but still light out. We went up to the front where you buy tickets and when we looked around there was absolutely no one in the movie theater at all, no employees, no other guests. We simply walked in, looking all around to try to find anyone we could to purchase a movie ticket, but could find no one else. All the movies in each of the theaters we checked were running but with no one else inside. So we just sat down and watched a movie, then left without seeing anyone else the whole time, it was very surreal.

    My friend stopped for gas on an interstate highway in the early morning, about 4 am. He was a long haul trucker. He walked in to the cafe... no one was there, but coffee was on, and nothing looked wrong, but no one answered when he called. Then he went back to the pumps and filled up and left. He was creeped out, and called 911 from the road. Later, he found out that the guy who was working that night had vanished, and foul play was suspected.

    Years ago I checked in to a multi-storey capital city hotel for an overnight stay. There was no-one in the lobby & only 1 staff member at Reception who welcomed me, checked his records & gave me the room key. 15 minutes later I left to get dinner & the lobby was completely empty, as it was again an hour later when I returned. I went to check out the next morning at 8am &, again, I was the only person in the lobby. Rung the buzzer on the counter, waited 10 minutes & left without paying as I had a meeting to attend. The hotel had all my contact details but I never heard from them & never stayed at that hotel again

    A lot of cinemas are run by teenagers in the US. Unsupervised teenagers, usually under the age of 18. I had a kid who did it for a while. She and her friends would tell me what they got up to during the days/evenings. It does not surprise me that you went in and out unchecked!

    You walked into an unstable dimensional phase shift. As the people are not fixed points in space and time, but the buildings are, you became invisible to the people and everyone was invisible to you and as you were all out of phase, you didn't even notice walking through each other.

    In the late 90s I remember going to the theaters in the small town i lived in. And quite often, it was empty but running. It happened again in a different place. I think there's certain times where theaters run on skeleton crews and that's just the projectionist. Weird way to operate but what do I know.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online When I was young me and my cousins found a bloody shirt in our woods. My cousins and their parents hunted so we thought maybe it was from that. But then we found a ziploc bag with shoes and shorts, all had to be from an extremely petite woman or an older kid. When we told our uncle about it, we got punished and weren’t allowed to talk about it. I don’t speak to them anymore but really makes you wonder.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online When I was a teenager, I was at a friends house when his parents and family were not home. I was on his back porch tying my shoes then I went back into his house. Tying my shoes, a 20 second action. NO! I walk inside and his entire family is back home and they’re sitting at the kitchen table eating dinner and they ask me what I am doing here?! They’re staring at me like I am crazy and asking why I just walked into their house. I ask for the time, they tell me it is 6:30 PM. I lost an entire hour doing a 20 second action. To this day I still have no clue what happened or where the time went.

    A possible explanation is that being young and growing, possibly had a blood pressure drop when you bent over to tie the shoes and actually passed out for an hour. You would then come round and might still be holding the laces and just not aware of it. Or it's also possible that you had an absent seizure.

    This happened to me once. I was walking to my internship. It was a 15 minute walk from my house. Just before I left at noon, I called them to tell them I picked up the posters for an upcoming event and I was bringing them with me. I started walking and a few blocks from my apartment, I turned the corner and then fell back on my ass. As I was picking myself up and gathering my things, one of the guys from the internship comes running up like, "Where the f**k have you been? It's 1:30, we've been waiting for you!" I replied, "It's not 1:30, it's like 12:10, I just left my apartment." He showed me his watch. That made me even more disoriented. No, I wasn't on drugs. I was too poor then to even think about paying for anything that wasn't rent or food. I didn't have a brain clot or a seizure. Everything was completely normal except for that lost 90 minutes. Lost time is actually a phenomenon.

    Araminta Ross had a similar thing, only much shorter-- she would go into a deep sleep where she couldn't be woken for a few seconds to a few minutes, then wake up again, not realizing time had passed. She apparently also had dreams during these periods, and often would stay upright when she had them. They're thought to be the effect of a small piece of lead that she was hit in the head with at age 13.

    One time after work, I was walking from my bus stop to my apartment, usually a very quiet easy 2-3 block walk on a sunny, late afternoon. I stopped at a basic and deserted neighborhood intersection to let a single car go by. I remember standing on the curb, watching it drive by me and then suddenly I was on the ground, on both hands and knees. I have no idea how or why I fell. I wasn't tired, dizzy or sick. I just fell with no other person in front or behind me. I couldn't even see the car I had been waiting for. It was really weird.

    Blood pressure changes, particularly drops could account for this, there is also another phenomenon that could account for it, known as a time slip. Time slips can be a few minutes up to a few days or in some rare cases several years. The other reason that comes to mind is absence seizure, the person suffering from them, is temporarily "absent" for their own reality, when they come back into their own awareness, there is always missing time.

    2008 mountain bike race in The mid-west. It was 100 degrees that day. Almost no oxygen on the woods. It was a hot day. Three of us were well ahead of the pack. We were about to lap another racer when he just rode off the trail and down a steep ravine. All three of us stopped. The ravine was steep and very deep. We found his bike half way down. We never found the racer. They sent search party and found nothing. To this day he’s never been found.

    Had an out of state guy staying at a cabin near us while back. He had a look about him that wouldn't let him look out of place basically anywhere. He invited himself to kayak with our group in a remote part of the river. There where several places on the river that would let you take different offshoots to see different areas but eventually met back up with the main river. Dude to one of the offshoots and we never saw him again. After getting home went to his rented cabin and it looked as if no one had been there in a long time. Owner of the cabin had no idea who we were talking about and said he hadn't rented it to anyone in over a year. to this day no one still has no idea who was or where he went.

    Not as serious I am sure, but reminds me of a few years ago. Me and hubby were on holiday in Cape Town, Seapoints. Looking at people playing with their dogs. One couple had 2 dogs, one looked a lot like a black lab, we were about 200m away. Watched them for about 10 minutes, throwing something in a tide pool which both dogs would jump into a go underwear to retrieve. Furmom and dad then started walking up to the promenade, dogs following. Then all of a sudden, the black lab was just gone. We could see a very large strip of the beach and that dog just disappeared.

    One of my stepmom’s friends was a counselor and one of her clients had just died in a bike crash and one night the counselor woke up from sleeping and saw her client that was holding his bike that was all broken and damaged and he was wearing bloody shorts and his head had a huge gash in it. And then the counselor said: “It’s ok, go back home.” And then the counselor went back to sleep. Quite weird and creepy.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online I saw a zombie. Naked man, ashy dirty skin, eyes rolled up in his head, stiff limbs sort of lurching through traffic in Jamaica. I was working in Kingston Jamaica at the time in the late 80's. I asked my Jamaican crew and they said yes it was a "zombie", but it is a drug not magic. They said people do this to people for revenge. A few weeks later I saw another one. An old woman this time.

    There was a best-selling book about this back in the 90s. There's a plant that grows in Jamaica called "zombie cucumber", and it contains a horrible neurotoxin that knocks out half the brain, leaving the person alive but unable to think clearly or make decisions. The "zombies" are allegedly created when someone commits an offense against community standards, who knows what offense, and the people who know how to work this stuff first give the victim a dose of blowfish toxin so they appear dead, and when they're buried they dig them up, wait for the blowfish toxin to wear off, and start giving doses of zombie cucumber. The person is legally dead, and is then rendered half-dead and helpless with zombie cucumber, they're used as slaves, and a lesson to the community. I have no idea how real any of this stuff is, and I don't *want* to know... but it's absolutely true that blowfish toxin can slow down the metabolism enough that a person can be apparently dead for 2-3 days. That part at least has been well-studied in Japan, where people eat blowfish (look up "fugu").

    I once met a guy in vienna that tried zombie cucumber as rec drug. He told me he didn't got high from it but after 1 day he couldn't read because letters and numbers looked like dots for him. He said that lasted about a week.

    The drug is scopolamine and is done recreationally by some. It's also used in some slave labor situations. It makes you kind of zonked out and very suggestible or easily manipulated, but you appear coherent for the most part. You're right, effects can last multiple days. Often with amnesic tendencies as well.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online My father and I are window cleaners. We were doing a vacant home from the "roaring 20s" Era, and I mean giant chandelier with the wrap around spiral staircase checker board flooring with the fancy carved golden trim. I could write paragraphs on this home; it was big, bold, and beautiful. Well, my father is upstairs doing master bedroom windows listening to music through a speaker (once again vacant home). It's something from the '70s and I am coming upstairs when the sun through a window hits the chandelier and I am momentarily blinded, like flashbang stunned for just a second when I recover there is no more music and the whole house feels different like it almost the same but there is some small thing that I would never notice that has changed. I asked my dad if he was listening to music, and he told me " no but that's a great idea" and started playing some music from his phone. It is the same song I was hearing when coming up the stairs but from the beginning. There is this small part of me that is convinced that when I am on my death bed I will look out the window and see the thing I know is off and realize I am in a different world then I was when going up those stairs. Also my father doesn't remember the house.

    I had a somewhat similar thing happen a little over 10 years ago. We lived in a pretty rural part of our state and decided to move further out just to have a little more piece and quite as well as complete privacy. It was late in the evening almost dark and almost completely quite except for the crickets. Out of nowhere I could hear music that sounded close but muffled. No one with me could hear it. Grabbed a flashlight a started walking to find the source. No matter how far I walked the sound level never changed and could never find where it was coming from. To this day my family still believes me to be crazy. Oddly I still hear that same music from time to time but now I just ignore it to keep from looking like I'm nuts.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online When I was 4 and my brother was 10, he stayed home from school and my mom left him to babysit me. She left numbers on the fridge and stuff and off to work. I don’t know how much longer after she left it happened but we heard our dog barking viciously which was completely out of character for her. At this point my brother and I are in the kitchen waiting for our biscuits in the oven and the sound of Fluffy barking gets incredibly louder which meant she was in the front lawn around the side of the kitchen entrance. The gate that lead to the back was a little further down the side of the house and whoever was outside was in the gap in between out of Fluffy’s reach. My brother opens the kitchen curtains to see if he could get a view as to what’s going on. Right as he opened the curtains there was a man looking right down at us, almost like he expected my brother to open the curtains. The doorknob began to rattle and my brother ran to the living room and grabbed the phone, taking me with him. As soon as he got on the phone, the rattle stopped. My mom came home and at the same time the police showed up for a statement. They never found the guy. My brother remembers it as vividly as I do and it’s the creepiest thing I’ve ever lived through

    This must have been terrifying. My mom worked nights, starting when I was 11, and I stayed by myself at home until my brother and sister got home from work. I was never nervous or worried, until one night a guy came rattling the front door. I ran up and locked it, and tried to get a good look at him, but it was too dark. The cops came and saw footprints, but he was long gone, and I learned a valuable lesson about always locking the door!

    We lived in rural Ecuador for a few years. One night my parents go to a party leaving me alone with the dog. I was about 14. A couple of hours in, it's dark as anything and me and the dog are just chilling. Bang bang bang on the front door! It's a glass door so I go look, but I'm a bit worried because who? At the door are probably 15 kids all their faces mashed up to the glass, from the bottom to the top of the the glass. I don't know any one here. There are no children here. I freak the dog freaks and they bang bang bang for at least a half hour. We go and hide in the bathroom upstairs. Some time later the folks come home and I tell them. They think I'm crazy til we look at the door. Face prints all over. They took me everywhere after that.

We looked and there was some random dude, super pale skinned, RIGHT in front of the window…just staring in. Unblinking. We freaked the f out, called campus security, and they never found the dude. Never worked that late in the comp lab again.

    I get how this was terrifying when it happened, but the most likely explanation is that the guy was drunk/otherwise under the influence and got the house mixed up with someone else's--his own, or somewhere they were expecting him--and it took him a little while, after seeing the unfamiliar kid, to dawn on him that he was at the wrong house. (I can vouch that it takes a minute...one time in college, I walked right into a stranger's apartment, and stood there for a surprisingly long time, trying to figure out where the party had gone, not to mention how my friends had had time to change all of the furniture in the few minutes I'd been outside. I left without encountering the inhabitant, but I have no idea if they ever knew that anyone had been there--the shower was running, so I imagine if they did know, they were pretty freaked out.)

    There's an entire Generation who grew up babysitting their siblings at a young age. I was babysitting babies in 4th grade as well as watching my younger siblings. Gen X is called the latchkey kid gen in the US because many households had both parents working for the 1st time in history and we had to watch out for ourselves. And we actually did fine.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online When I was a little girl, I was playing in my room one morning with my sister. I looked out my window and saw a man staring in at us. I told my sister to leave my room and ran to get my father. He didn't believe me and thought I was crazy. Needless to say, I had an awful hard time sleeping that night. Throughout my childhood, I'd hear what sounded like footsteps outside at night, or my parent's car doors opening long after they had went to sleep. Several years later, I looked at our house on Google maps. I always assumed we lived by ourselves in the woods, far from anyone else. It turns out there was a small house that looked like it was being lived in only a few hundred yards in the woods from us. My family was less skeptical of my "crazy stories" after I showed them that.

    My daughter kept hearing stuff outside her window one winter and every time there was nothing there. We live in a state park in the deep part of the woods. Set a camera up outside and for three nights in a row there was a deer and a fox that came up to eat from the holly bush under her window and whatever sweet grass was under the bush. They were always together.

    Always believe kids generally. I had a horrible babysitter that would hit my kids my ex convinced me they were just doing that because they didn't want us to go out. The next time I saw her spanking a different child not mine. My oldest was very independent and kept her brothers and sister safe. Trust me take it seriously. BTW I told the woman I did not think spanking was appropriate I did tell other parents most of them didn't think it was bad.

I f*****g let out the most blood curdling scream you ever heard and kept yelling for my dad as loud as I could and he stopped grabbing me and ran.

    I'm glad you got away. Two guys in a car tried to kidnap my niece when she was about that age... she was riding her tricycle on the driveway, right in front of the screen door. My sister went inside for just a minute to get something, and the car stopped, a guy jumped out and tried to grab her. My sister and two neighbors came on the run, and they left, but my niece was never allowed to play outside in the front yard ever again.

    One of the reasons it is so dangerous to raise your kids to "respect their elders" and "do what they're told" and "never talk back" and basically, to have no agency, is that you make them the perfect victims for abduction, abuse and more. My childhood was horrific because of this. My daughter was raised to know that any time anyone made her uncomfortable, she could say no, and as she was older, I taught her to walk confidently, to face off to people who stared or made inappropriate comments, and told her that there were no rules for self-defense against someone trying to harm her or take her. I think it made her more scared of the world, but it also made her safer.

    My older brother, when he was around 2-3 years old, had a car stop on the road and offer him something. My mom always told him to run in the opposite direction from the car, so he did. Which also was further away from my mom lol. Thankfully the guy didn't pursue him. Makes me cringe to think I could have lost my brother that day or something bad would have left him scarred for life.

    We taught our kids to kick and yell and scream 'You are not my dad, put me down'. My oldest son had to do that once. He was about 4 and we were at K-Mart in the toy aisle. Some guy picked him up to see if a bicycle would fit him as he was the same size as this guy's kid. It was perfectly innocent, but when my son started throwing a fit, that guy dropped him and ran out of the store, very red faced. I was os proud of my son.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online I used to live on a farm and one morning there was a full horse leg on our driveway. Like still had part of the hip attached and was fresh. We sprinted down to our horse paddock to find all our horses completely fine. We disposed of the leg and never got an explanation! Very creepy! Ps. This happened in Canberra, Australia so there’s no mountain lions or bears around here

    You probably lived close to a farmer's cow graveyard. Growing up on a small-scale cattle ranch, we had this happen sometimes, too, but we always knew where the parts were coming from. Sadly, things happen and animals die sometimes when they're not supposed to. My dad used a back corner of the woods to place the bodies of stillbirths and cows that had died from other complications. Wild animals would then inevitably scatter the parts around, and the dogs would find them and try to bring them home

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online I was driving through an empty park in broad daylight, made a u-turn, and suddenly people everywhere, walking their dogs, riding bikes, a kid skating in a spot that I would have had to actively avoid him, joggers… like ~30 people spawned while I was turned away for what was probably ~4 seconds. I did a lot of thinking that night. Who was “real”? Am I “real”? Is my family real? I try not to think about it too much, really.

    Hallucinations are scary when you're not expecting it. I had one the first one I saw a guy in the middle of the road. Fortunately it was late nobody else out on the road. I almost flipped the dang vehicle. Not fun. After I got vehicle stopped he wasn't there any more. Scary but explainable. Expect you need to get a Dr to make a call if you need meds or not.

    lol... I know there is a third tree in front of my husband's old house. I know this because he has taken me out to it, put my hand on it, and laughed at me. but the second I turn away and turn back, I don't see it. I never see it when we drive past - he likes to visit his old neighbors and his son is now part owner of his old house. Damn tree just doesn't exist for me...

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online It was 1984, I was 15 years old and was alone at my older sister's house. It was late morning, I had just got out of the shower, still wrapped in a towel when I heard a noise outside. I looked out a window and watched a complete stranger tying the doorknob of the main entrance to the railing of the deck with a rope I used to walk the dog with. He then leaned a mop, that was on the deck, against the door. I called my sister, told her what happened, got dressed, got the heck out of the house through a different door and hid in the bushes until police arrived. The house was somewhat remote with no close neighbors. Found out later the door he tied up was unlocked! No clue how long he had been lurking around before I knew of his presence. To this day we have no idea who that was and what his motives were.. beyond creepy definitely unexplained.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online Creepy but explainable. My dad is a paramedic, and one call took him to an SUV that had driven into the river and was being towed out. The car was obviously not working and the two guys inside had already passed away. As they're pulling the dead guys out of the car, suddenly all the lights flash on, the windshield wipers start going on full speed, and the car starts blaring the radio at max volume. Freaked everyone right out.

    On "Top Gear" they once drove a truck that was reputed to be tough into the ocean, and kept it there until the tide turned again. It started up when they turned the key, so I guess some cars really can survive being immersed in water. Too bad their drivers can't...

    It might be a different episode of Top Gear but I remember one where they had this old Toyota pickup. They hammered it and submerged it in the sea. Then they dragged it out and put it on top of a tall building. They demolished the building. They dug the Toyota out and had a mechanic try to get it to start using only basic tools. Those crazy guys did it! It started!

    this happened because water got into the electrical connections and short circuited everything, causing EVERYTHING to go off at once. batteries will keep working when exposed to water, and usually circuits burn out when overloaded by water but instead this just made it malfunction. likely wasnt good still after, but theres a chance the electricals were fine after it dried out.

    If the SUV was driven into the river, that means the key was probably still in it and the ignition was set to on, even though the engine could no longer run. The main parts of the electrical system under the hood are water resistant (not proof) because they are prone to exposure to the elements and circuit boards are commonly coated in Flux, which is used to flush out impurities when soldering the components to the board. It is nonconductive so they just leave it on when assembly is finished, and it drys and creates a kinds of protective coating on the final product. Basically, once enough of the water drained out everything would start turning back on because the ignition was still set to on. The radio was probably blasting when in went into the water, lights were on, and wipers were just a short in the console.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online Back on Jan 28, 1986 the space shuttle Challenger exploded. My family was watching the live launch coverage as it happened. At the same time we heard a loud sound from my room. We went to see what the sound was and a poster of a space shuttle we had fell off the wall.

    They had it on in school. No time to edit. I was thirteenth. Then the news kept playing it over and over I'm not sure which one is worse. The news kinda burned it in your brain. I think I saw it 6 or 7 times. Maybe more. Having the picture fall might have been due to sound of explosion. Most adults turn it up to hear what the announcer better. Your family seems to find the space travel very important.

    My mom was in high school when President Kennedy was shot and killed. They'd gone back to class after lunch. She told me they hadn't even been back in class five minutes when Kennedys portrait fell from the wall and shattered. Les then five minutes later the principal announced classes for the rest of the day was cancelled and that everybody was to go home as the President had just been shot.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online I was maybe 14-15 years old and I would frequently sleep on the couch in our living room. We lived in a typical suburban colonial where the couch faced the front door. Since I could remember, we NEVER locked our doors, as we lived in a pretty decent city. I remember one night I was still awake at 3-4am listening to music, when I saw a car quickly pull up our driveway. I then saw a very skinny, tall man open our front door, stand in the hallway for 20-30 seconds facing my direction, then leave the house and drive away quickly. I remember telling my parents and entire family this in the morning, and they did not believe me. My dad insisted it was him, as he’d leave for work in the early hours of the morning. I know I was young, but I also know that was NOT my dad, as my dad was stockier and shorter than this man. Freaks me out to this day to think what this man was going to do.

    Had that happen at 2am in a neighborhood where we lived for about 10 years. Our normally sweet labrador started barking and growling at the side door which we sometimes forgot to lock. I woke and made it to the door in time to push back against a man trying to shove it open. He was stronger and got it open, but the dog scared him back out again. He seemed genuinely startled. Pretty sure it was just some guy drunk-stumbling home from a bar given the time, but gave us the heebiejeebies anyway. We moved to the country not long after. I’ll take wildlife over people any day.

    I think this happens a lot where many houses look the same in a neighborhood. I've seen a couple reports of drunks crashing out in the wrong apartments or entering the wrong house. I once left a party about 3 am in one of these neighborhoods... I had no idea how to get out of the subdivision, and no idea which house I'd come out of, as miles and miles and miles of identical houses were looped around in really confusing ways. I bet I drove for 30-45 minutes trying to figure out how to get out... I was actually getting scared.

    Yeah, I commented on a similar item in this thread that I *was* that guy, once. College, I was at a friend's apartment, went outside for something, and on the way back walked straight into a stranger's apartment. (There were several landings, each with apartment doors in the same positions, and also, substances were involved.) I didn't see anyone, but the shower in the apartment was running, so if the person in there heard the door open, it could very well be someone's "the time I almost got raped and murdered" story. No, ma'am, I'm just a dumbass.

    So once in our early 20s, I left to walk home from the bar, my husband telling me he would be home later. Bar closes at 2 in the morning, he is (obviously) drunk walking home. Walks into the wrong house...he wasn't even on the right street. LOL could have been something like that for this story.... Husband said he realized it wasn't our house as the dog that greeted him (friendly) wasn't ours. Hahahaah!

    So. The day my housemates and I moved into where we currently live. Someone was on the roof and I. for some reason thought it was an intruder. So I stayed quiet. But no one else did which seemed very odd to me at the time. Well turns out, it was just a guy working on the roof, painting or something. No one had bothered to tell me beforehand.

Friends and family accused me of snubbing them, as if I had no idea who they were. This has happened multiple times and people who have seen this woman swear she looks so much like me that they think it is me. This woman has even fooled men I've dated. I think an ex still believes I blew him off to go out with friends when I was really home all night. 😂

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online I was walking past a church one day when I was about 15 and standing in front of one of the graves was a cowboy dressed head to toe in pure white. He looked straight out of a movie. His hat, shirt, waistcoat, trousers and boots were all so white, like an incredibly clean white as if he’d only just put them on. He was white, had short brown hair, stubble and was an average looking guy. I kept staring at him, blinked and then he was just f*****g gone. I live in the UK so it was weird to see anyone resembling a cowboy anyway. I don’t know if it was my mind playing tricks on me but I could swear he was there. He looked so real.

    During a school trip in England, we went to visit a reconstitution of a medieval village. There were several little houses with intricate details and you could walk by on the street, giving a look to the inside of each one of them. That's what we were doing my friend and I (13-14 yo boys). One of the houses was a bit away from the others, but not really different. We walked there and peeked in the window like we had done at the other places. The inside was a single room, and there was a very old and skinny man with long white hair, wearing dirty pajamas, sitting on a unmade bed with a demented look in his eyes. My friend and I looked at each other, walked the f**k away and never talked about this again.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online My high-school girlfriend and her family all talked about the ghost in their house and always said that it sounded like a man wearing boots walking down the hallway. We were all very close and one day when they weren't home I just walked in and went to my g/fs room and laid on her bed while I waited for them to get back. A man in boots walked slowly right down the hall and right past the door to g/fs room where I was laying. I did the next logical thing thing and just climbed out of her bedroom window. They showed up a few minutes later and asked why i was just standing around in the front yard and why I hadn't just gone in. I told them that I heard the ghost and climbed out of the window to escape. They laughed their freaking heads off. Broad daylight totally creepy and very unexplained

    What if he wasn't a ghost? What if it's some guy living in their attic and walking around at night. The OP caught him prowling because the family was out. Let's think about that for a bit.

    I rented a house for a while. Every few days it sounded like someone was walking on the roof and other times, through the living room. One day I rand down to see if someone was there but saw no one. My wife and I would hear it at the same time. Freaky. I'm certain it was the old house shifting, but dang it sounded like footsteps

    Ghosts don't follow the traditional 'dark stormy night stuff, they show up wherever and whenever they like; new homes, daytime, full-body, or odd noises. For me, they aren't creepy/scary, just a curious oddity that is understandably hard to track scientifically. Don't speculate too deeply; you might offend some recently departed relatives!

    Growing up a friend's house was haunted. More specifically the finished attic was but only at night. They kept the door to the attic locked at night. I didn't believe him when he told me because we always played ping pong up there during the day. So one evening when our parents went to some event and we were at his house I said let's play ping pong and he turned white and said no, the ghost won't like it. I laughed and went to open the door and he yelled. I decided to sit with my back against the door and he told me not to do that either. I was having none of it and stayed put. Well, about 20 seconds later I hear footsteps coming down the stairs towards the door, and panic freeze in place. His dogs start barking in my direction too. The footsteps stop at the bottom and then the doorknob starts to get jiggled. You can bet I found my legs then and bolted out the front door with him and stayed out there until our parents got back around 1 am.

    Not very long ago our water heater had a leak which caused an electrical fire. Our water heater is located in the far back of our bedroom closet. What saved us, and our home, was a woman telling me very clearly and very loudly I needed to get up. I woke up just as the first sparks started. Saved us all. It is just me and my boyfriend and our two dogs living here. My BF hit the fuse box and I grabbed the fire extinguisher. Thankfully, not too much damage was done. These kind of things have happened throughout my life. My BF never doubted a word I said.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online A man with freshly exposed bone on his arm and missing a substantial amount of skin and muscle walked up to me in a parking lot asking me calmly for cigarettes. It really freaked me out, and told him I was calling 911 for him. He immediately ran off and I gave his description to 911. There wasn't much blood but the guy clearly needed immediate medical attention. This was in San Jose on an afternoon about 5-6 years ago. Still have that image giving me nightmares to this day.

    I’m pretty sure the condition is called Body Integrity Identity Disorder. It’s a mental disorder where the person desires for a sensory or physical aspect of themselves to be removed because it causes discomfort or annoyance.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online This is my dad's story, not mine: In the 80s, my dad was in the Peace Corps and lived in Sierra Leone for 3 years. He had a motorcycle (or some sort of motorbike at least at one point) and would ride around the roads when he had free time. One day he's riding a dirt road that snakes around a small mountainside or hillside past some construction works. About half a mile after the roadwork, he sees a man on the side of this dirt road on the mountain/hillside just laughing his butt off. And he was blue. Not like painted blue, but blue. At first my dad rode on, thinking nothing of it. And then it sunk in...that he saw a blue dude sitting on the side of a dirt road laughing wildly. He turned around and rode back to where he saw the blue dude and there was nothing there. He kept retracing his path beyond the roadwork and never saw the blue guy again. Later that day he went back to the village he was living in at the time and told the locals about what he had seen. The locals all laughed and said, essentially, "No you didn't. White men can't see devils." Edit: beyond the color of his skin, what made this even more spooky to my dad was the way the guy just completely disappeared when he backtracked. There was nowhere for him to go off the road, due to it being on a hillside and he never found him again on the road making it seem as if the blue man simply vanished off the face of the earth. Edit 2: talked to my dad more about this one this afternoon. He said the color of his skin was, like, bright blue, like unnaturally blue, bright blue. He also said he could hear the voice of the guy in his head like he was talking directly into my dad's mind, telepathy-style.

He was outside at the far end of the yard and saw me standing on the stairs, whistling for him to come back to the house. When he got back inside he asked what was up and why I changed my shirt. I hadn't been outside, didn't hear any whistling, and was wearing the same black shirt I'd been wearing all day, not the white shirt he saw "me" wearing when he saw me outside a few minutes earlier.

That’s probably the scariest thing I’ve ever had happen in broad daylight.

    Reminds me of the time I was driving back to my college from home after a break and some weirdo was just following down the road. It's a 186 mile drive, the majority of which is literally in the middle of nowhere. It was the middle of the night and pitch black, no other cars on the road, and this guy is just pacing behind me and matching my speed. It was extremely frustrating because it was so dark out that having his headlights behind me made it more difficult to see what was ahead of me. I was in the right lane of a two-lane road, so I just eased of the gas and gently slowed down about 10mph (in a 65 from 65), hoping they would pass me. They didn't. They slowed down to match my speed again. I then sped back up to 65, and they matched me again. Now I was REALLY bothered by what they were doing, so I jammed on the brakes and dropped like 30mph, then gunned it and took off. They either got the hint, couldn't catch up to me, or a combination of both, but I finally had some peace of mind.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online When I was 15, my family went on a cross country trip and one night we camped in the Grand Canyon. We went to a ranger lecture around 6pm (this is summer) so it was still pretty light when we were walking back. We went off the trail as a shortcut and after walking a ways noticed a light up ahead. As we drew closer there was a man sitting at a desk in the woods with a lantern. Just a full wood office-sized desk in the middle of the woods. I distinctly remember he had long sideburns and feeling like he was dressed like a man from the 1800s. My dad backed us down towards the trail and we went on our way. The man never made a peep or looked up or acknowledged us. There were two adults and three teenagers and we all remember the event really clearly. I don't believe in ghosts or spirits but have no explanation for what I saw. As I got older I figured I was misremembering but everyone else in my family says they saw the same thing.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online On a trip to gulf shores Alabama. Stopped to gas up at some run down gas station that was also a truck stop in Mississippi. Went to the bathroom and as I'm standing at the urinal I had the strangest feeling that something was off. This strange feeling overwhelmed the entire left side of my body. I don't claim to be supernatural or have any weird feelings/premonitions and I have never experienced that feeling before that day or since. Anyways, I get up on my tippy toes to look to my left where the stalls were located. There was this deranged looking white guy with nasty, greasy hair and a f****d up scowl on his face staring directly at me. The most typical looking psycho killer you could imagine. He had to have been standing on the toilet because I could see his whole face and the upper part of his shoulders. Immediately zipped up and got the f**k out of dodge. Didn't even wash my hands.

I realize now there were two people in the stall. One standing on the toilet and another doing whatever you do in a bathroom stall with another man.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online Aunque esto se puede explicar, la imagen me sigue dando escalofríos hasta el día de hoy. Fue más o menos en la época de la moda de los tablones. No tenía ni idea de lo que era y no había oído nada al respecto. Cogí un taxi para ir a la ciudad y estaba caminando por el centro de la ciudad y la vida era normal. Entonces, giré hacia la plaza de la ciudad y había unas 200 personas haciendo planking por todas partes, en todo. No sé qué estaba pasando. Pensé que tal vez había disparos o una bomba. O quizás se estaba acabando el mundo. Entonces pregunté a alguien que estaba a mi lado y me lo explicaron y nos reímos, pero durante ese breve momento nunca olvidaré esa sensación de inquietud.

    (Translated to english) Although this can be explained, the image still gives me the creeps to this day. It was more or less around the time of the fashion for planks. I had no idea what it was and hadn't heard anything about it. I took a taxi to go to the city and I was walking around the city center and life was normal. So, I turned into the town square and there were about 200 people planking everywhere, in everything. I don't know what was going on. I thought maybe there was gunshots or a bomb. Or maybe the world was ending. So I asked someone who was next to me and they explained it to me and we laughed, but for that brief moment I will never forget that feeling of uneasiness.

    Context sometimes is the key to making sense of a situation. There is an anecdote by Douglas Adams (retold in "The Salmon of Doubt", I think), who once on a trip decided to ask a passer-by for directions. Unfortunately that passer-by turned out to be mute and deaf. So he went along, asking the next person he met. Unfortunately that person was mute and deaf. Slightly creeped out, he went to the next corner asking a random person - who turned out to be mute and deaf. He said at that very moment, only seeing a sign for a a deaf-mute congress near his position saved him from seriously questioning his sanity.

    I remember that one...lol... "When the third man I spoke to turned out to be deaf and dumb and also blind I began to feel a terrible weight settling on my shoulders; wherever I looked the trees and buildings took on dark and menacing aspects. I pulled my coat tightly around me and hurried lurching down the street, whipped by a sudden gusting wind. I bumped into someone and stammered an apology, but he was deaf and dumb and unable to understand me. The sky loured. The pavement seemed to tip and spin. If I hadn’t happened then to duck down a side street and pass a hotel where a convention for the deaf was being held, there is every chance that my mind would have cracked completely and I would have spent the rest of my life writing the sort of books for which Kafka became famous and dribbling....lol

    This may be bizarre, I dunno, but this is the second post I’m seeing on this thread in Spanish - is this just me? I mean, I don’t mind though I can read Spanish, but it is kinda random and it’s on this thread and nobody’s saying anything about it but me and I’ve just had about 5 glasses of bourbon so maybe I’m imagining it, I dunno anymore!

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online When I was about 8, my parents, my brother and me were hiking somewhere in Austria when we came across the ruins of a medieval castle on a hilltop. A sign said that there was a cafe near the ruins so we went up. The cafe was deserted, all the tables and chairs were toppled, and next to the building stood a brand new big Mercedes with a lot of bullet holes in the trunk and the rear window. The car was heavily armored, the rear window was so thick that the bullets hadn't even penetrated it. We turned around on the spot and got out of there as fast as we could. Back in the hotel, my dad reported to the police but they dismissed it. Never knew what came of it. Edit: Since so many commenters suggested it was a movie set: That could very well be an explanation, but still it was scary and we didn't want to stick around to maybe find out the hard way that it was NOT a movie set after all. Also, why wasn't anything cordoned off, and why wasn't anybody around?Concerning the police dismissing it: When my dad called them, they said they were going to investigate. The next day he called again to ask what came from it, but they said it was nothing, the holes in the car had been caused by children throwing rocks. Unless those children were able to throw very small rocks at very high speed, that was obviously BS but we got the message that they didn't want to tell us and we weren't supposed to keep asking. Edit 2: A lot of people asked when (1984) and where exactly this was, so I asked my dad and he told me it wasn't in Carinthia (Kärnten) where we spent the vacation the year after, but in Lower Austria, in the valley of the river Krems. The only castle there is Castle Hartenstein (Latitude, longitude: 48.446252424125696, 15.39679893866418) and when I see the photos online I remember that it looks exactly like that place. It's not accessible to the public now but it may have been 38 years ago.

    I walked onto a movie set in the woods once - it was a huge billboard made to look like it was from the 1970s, and there was a car stuck halfway through it, as if it had flown into it. My dumb ass 100% thought it was real until the security guards found us and told us we were trespassing lol

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online Oh this just happened! Middle of the day, I'm driving home from running some errands. I'm on one of those roads that's sort of a highway but still goes through a lot of back country and outlying neighborhoods. (I live in a major city in the US). The road cuts through some not nice areas. I'm at a stop light when I see emerge from the brush on the side of the road a person wearing from head to toe trash bags. I mean HEAD TO TOE, two little holes cut for eyes, but otherwise no skin exposed. He had a walking stick also with trash bags tied to it. Before I could even process what I was seeing the light turned green and I was off. The last 15 min of my drive were me muttering, "what the actual f**k?" And for the days following all I could hear in my head is danny diveto saying "I'm the trash man". Wild.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online Me, my 2 brothers and our uncle were running down the lake in his boat on a beautiful summers day. Blue sky as far as the eye can see. Until we looked towards the north shore line, and saw a smallish passenger jet flying low. Until it went below the tree line and disappeared. We were flabbergasted, because our family has been in the area for over 100 years and there is NOT an airstrip in that direction, anywhere. There was no loud bang. No fire ball, nothing. No way it had crashed. We still don't know how it was possible, that it did what it did.

    The case of the “Gimley Glider” is similar to this only when this 747 went to emergency land at an airbase one of the pilots has done his training at years before. Only problem was that it had since been converted into a drag strip. Two kids riding their bikes at the end of the meet while their parents packed up said they didn’t see it until the last moment and have never peddled harder in their lives.(No fuel so it was almost silent

    it was an air canada 767, not a 747. the aircraft ran out of fuel due to a confusion between metric and imperial units. also it cant have been silent because of wind disruption. (sorry aviation enthusiast here...)

    This one sounds like it could have been a controlled emergency landing, I was on plane that had to do this, loss of fuel pressure, pilot radioed the situation and just looked for the nearest uninhabited flat place to put it down. Turned out the fuel line had ruptured and this could have ended very badly. I've heard stories from people in the area that saw our aircraft come in to land and they sound very similar to this one.

    THIS happened to my son and I. I was driving, there's a small mountain with a typically curvy road up one side, down the next. We saw a plane come straight UP, beyond the mountain, do a circle in the air and go straight down. Freaked us the heck out, pulled over, listened for emergency sirens whatever. Nothing. Called the police to ask " Um, has a plane crashed ( location )? " They actually took it seriously- said " Not that we know, will check it out ". NOTHING. We drove the entire route twice more- nothing. NO idea to this day- and I can describe exactly what that plane looked like. So can my son.

    When I was a teenager, my dad and I were in our backyard one day when we heard an explosion and legit saw a mushroom cloud rising over the trees to the east. To explain, it wasn't a big, fat fiery one like you see in pictures. It was tall and spindly with the mushroom part at the top, and a ring around the tall stem up near the cap. Imagine looking at the horizon and holding your arm straight out, and then raising it about 30 degrees. That was the height, with the cap a little larger than your fist. The property was higher than anything around it for miles, so we had a really good view of the surrounding landscape. We could see the bottom stem rising from behind the horizon, behind trees that were at least 30 miles away. We lived in the middle of nowhere. There were no towns in that direction unless you counted ones on the other side of the state. Very few people in that direction at all, just trees. We were sure we would hear something about it on the news that night, but we never did. Apparently no one else we knew had seen it either, even though the cloud took about 20 minutes to fade. This happened around the late 90's on a sunny, clear day. Still have no idea what that was about.

    When I was a teenager out walking my dog in the English countryside, I stumbled across a lovely group of pagans (druids? I don’t know the terminology) performing some sort of midsummer celebration or ritual. (I assume midsummer because it was June?) My dog had run down into a grove and was barking so I followed her down where she was very excitedly greeting everyone. They were all dressed up in colorful robes, I apologized profusely because I felt very embarrassed like I was definitely seeing something I wasn’t supposed to and also because of my dog. They apologized profusely, presumably because I was a kid and they saw my entirely weirded out and confused expression, I wrangled the dog and we went on our way. I realized how odd it was afterwards but it was still a very charming English encounter. At least now I know how I’d react in a horror movie? “oh sorry, I don’t think I’m supposed to be here…”

    One time I was driving through the Yellowhead Highway in Edmonton heading from one job site to the next. For some reason I glanced over to the empty passenger seat next to me and saw a giant glowing orb, brilliant bright yellowish-white light. When I noticed the orb, it slowly raised off the seat and hovered for a fleeting moment before floating out of the open window never to been seen again. Might not be relevant, but later that night I found out my aunt had passed away around the same time I saw the light orb.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online In college I lived on the 11th floor in an apartment with no balcony and it was about 4:30 in the afternoon. I watched a man walk into my apartment about 10 seconds before I walked in, and habitually bolted the door behind me (it locked automatically on the outside). I was living with three room mates at the time so I just figured they were having guests over, no biggie. I put my stuff on the couch and went towards the back bedroom to say hi to whoever came over. My room mates had no idea what I was talking about. It wasn’t a big apartment but I searched everywhere. My room mates stayed in the back bedroom sufficiently freaked out. There was no one else in the apartment and the door was still bolted from the inside.

    Just to nitpick: Any flying object you cannot identify is by definition an UFO ("Unidentified Flying Object". This does -not- equate to "extraterrestrials", however. Just because you (or myself) cannot identify it, there is no reason to assume anything other than a completely mundane, terrestrial explanation.

    When I was six years old back in the 80s, there was a large field behind my grandmother‘s home in Compton California. We were not allowed to go back there. Being the obedient children we were my cousin and I hopped the fence and went and checked it out. We noticed a weird smell and saw a box in the middle of the field with flies flying all around it. We were too young to know what that meant. So we creep up to the box and we open it and it’s a Rottweiler‘s head. I’ve never forgotten that. I asked my aunt about it the other day and she said during that time there was talk of devil worshipers in the area.

    30 Unexplainable Situations That Happened In Broad Daylight And Caught People Off Guard, As Shared By Folks Online I was around 10-12years old when I was walking home with my family. My two brothers ran ahead while my parents and little sister were bringing up the rear. I was in the middle when I got this urge to look up ahead (I had been fiddling with my ipod) and honestly I don't know what I saw. It was a very tall - probably 7-9ft best guess, lanky figure shrouded in all black. It walked slightly hunched and almost like it had a slight limp but it moved fast. It crossed the street from our neighbors house and passed in front of our car where it just disappeared. I should have been able to see it based on its height but it literally just vanished. I ran and searched all around and in our car but found nothing. To this day I can't explain it but I was in my right mind and know what I saw. Just wish I had some answers.

    That is very tall, you should have been able to see him walking from quite a distance I would think.

    What you were probably seeing was an extremely crisp shadow thrown from someone walking near a street light.

    I was in 8th grade and at the end of the year, the 8th graders all took a field trip. For some reason even though it was a regular public school, we took a field trip to a campground owned by a church. We were free to explore the land, and there was a small river with a wide pebble beach and there were lizards running over the pebbles to different areas of brush growing on the beach. I liked trying to catch lizards, so I was chasing them, totally focused on the lizard a foot or two in front of me and not seeing much else. With my hands extended almost touching the lizard, I followed one until it crawled across something that wasn’t pebbles or branches— it was short fur. I recoiled in an instant, and getting a wider view of what was in front of me, I saw that the lizard has crawled onto a goat carcass that was half-buried in the sand. It had a pentagram carved into its forehead, and its eyes were milky white, and there were a lot of partially burned sticks nearby, but weirdly the goat carcass hadn’t started to stink yet. I guess it’s not unexplainable because it was probably just some teenagers messing around and trying to summon satan or whatever, but it was an incredible moment of shock as I only realized what was happening when my hands were inches away from touching it.

    When I was 12 I saw a black eyed person. Not just dark eyes, but the kind of pitch black you see in horror movies where the entire eye is black. This was in 1995, before colored contacts were widely available (and I think they were like hundreds of dollars) so I’ve always found that explanation unlikely. So I’m at a huge water park in my city in the wave pool. My friend and I were on a double Inter-tube just splashing around when we ended up in the middle of the giant pool, bumping into other tubers. I look up and a few feet away is this guy. He’s about 25 and he’s staring at me. Not just staring, but staring into my eyes. into my soul. It was a creepy stare, but not sexual or anything. It was just too intense. I couldn’t look away for what felt like a long time. It felt like he knew what I was thinking. Definitely felt predatory in an animalistic way. I swear he had a small smirk on his face. After what was probably only a few seconds but felt much longer, I looked away and that was that. This is the interesting part I think…back then I never talked about it or looked it up. The internet was new and I don’t think I even had an email at that point. I don’t think I told my friend or my parents. About 15 years later I’m sitting at work and I remember this incident so I decided to look it up online. I check eye diseases and the only one that it could have been said people generally couldn’t be in the sun as it is painful (I saw the black eyed guy on a sunny day at a water park so that was unlikely). I then found a site about black eyed kids, but that sounded too made up. I did find a handful of similar stories though. I guess I’ll never know for sure, but it sticks out as one of the creepiest things I’ve experienced.

    Predators (the human kind) are known sometimes to get so excited when looking at potential victims that their eyes will dialate to the point that it looks like their whole eye is black. I'd be more inclined to guess the guy was a nutjob than to jump to the conclusion that there was anything supernatural going on here

    For some optical procedures, there are eye drops that make your pupils dilate and look really creepy. Takes a while for them to wear off and you might (or might not) be sensitive to light in the meantime.

    Coloured contact lenses most certainly were available in 1995,and they were quite widely used, albeit more to intensify eye colour then totally change it. I'd imagine that he was using coloured contacts.

    Kinda dumb but ehh So awhile ago I went to this place called Cliveden and they had a giant slide up. Me and my sister were queueing to ride the slide and we were talking to these really kind girls. Then, when one of them went down the slide she straight up disappeared. I saw the other one later with her mum and dad, but one of them literally vanished. I sorta assumed she went off with another family member but idk. I was 8 so I found it unsettling.

    This woman in Wal-Mart. I think she may have been a vampire. I was at self-checkout by the door and I heard something shatter and she'd dropped a bag of spaghetti sauce. She made eye contact with me and we shared one of those "oops" smiles. Only, she was completely grey-skinned, like her whole body that I could see, that wasn't covered by clothing, was as grey as slate, she had deep purple shadows under her eyes, and her eyes were red, the white part, the pupils were dark-brown I think. She had pale lips; long, boney fingers with pointed nails that were blackened, and I swear to God, her teeth, when she smiled, were pointy, all of them, sharp and white. And she was in all black. She was probably 75. Maybe she was sick or something but she put on a hat before exiting the store and she got into a black Cadillac with tinted windows. I don't know what the deal was but she was as real as as the room you are sitting in, reader.

    Eternal youth is really the whole point of being a vampire but why would she be buying spaghetti sauce. I'm sure it has garlic in it.

    She was probably severely anemic. My father suffered massive blood loss during what was supposed to be a routine albeit extremely complex and lengthy surgery. He was so severely anemic that his skin took on a very grey, waxy appearance for several weeks afterwards. In addition to iron and ferritin supplements that he was started on immediately after his surgery, the hospital doctors had him eating iron rich foods. When he was discharged home some weeks later, he still had a very grey, pallid, and waxy complexion and was constantly freezing cold feeling and extremely lethargic. My mother went out and bought beef liver, cooking up liver and onions for him several days in a row. Within a few days of having liver daily, his color and complexion returned to normal and he was no longer constantly freezing feeling.

    Straight up saw a house cat with wings. It walked across a path on all 4’s but it had these flaps on its back. It walked like right in front of me. Wasn’t from a distance and the chick I was walking with saw it too. We were completely baffled. It jumped a fence and was gone but we both knew what we saw and had no clue how to explain it.

    Oh yeah, cats can develop weird "wing" flaps. It's a medical condition. The skin on the shoulders becomes overly elastic or something like that.

    I had a teacup poodle when I was little and she liked to walk on her front legs. As in full on walk around the house and yard on her front legs. I of course loved it because I was little and it was wildly amusing.

    I was sitting at my office desk early in the afternoon and when I looked outside the window there was a naked woman running down the street. I told two co-workers who were in the office with me and they just sorta laughed and continued their conversation. Then a couple minutes later I exclaimed that I couldn't believe that I had seen that and one of the co-workers was like "Haha, you're still thinking about that?" as if it wasn't that odd of an occurrence.

    Don't know if this counts, but I was driving up a sunny road one day when, for a fraction of a second, I legitimately believed an oncoming car was being piloted by a skeleton. It turned out to be a bony old man with very sunken eye sockets, seen through a blinding glare. Still enough to make me go "WAT THA...!"
