• From spooky haunted schoolhouses, to aliens
with missing eyeballs, the Planet Dolan crew
re-enact some of the best true stories from
our subreddit about scariest encounters you’ve
had with the supernatural– I’m {} and
today I’ll be your narrator
10 – Aelryn Dolan and Tolop
When Dolan was 15 years old, he snuck into
an old abandoned schoolhouse with his friend
Tolop. They were looking around when they
heard a thump coming from a basement hatch.
After they worked up the courage to go down
into the basement, they discovered a room
full of dusty school uniforms that smelled
like dead bodies. Suddenly they heard a young
girl giggling and decided to get the hell
out of there. When Dolan went to open the
hatch, a young girl stuck her head over the
exit, before the hatch slammed shut. They
ran back to Dolan house nearby and looked
at the schoolhouse through Dolan’s bedroom
window. A shadowy figure looked back at them
from the house before it slowly closed the
back door and was never seen again.
9 - DeathDrivesaFord Pringle
A few years ago, Pringle was devastated by
his friend Todd’s suicide. They had hung
out a lot and Todd loved to adjust the music
on Pringle’s stereo, he even nicknamed Todd
‘The Jam Master’. Todd unfortunately passed
away at about 3am the night he died. Two nights
after his death, Pringle woke up to hear his
stereo turn on. He thought it was weird and
got out of bed to turn it off, making sure
no knobs had been moved. The next night, it
came on again at exactly 3am. This time he
totally freaked out and sat up in bed, screaming,
"TODD! STOP IT!" The next morning he noticed
the stereo had been configured exactly the
way Todd used to set it. He left it that way
and it never happened again.
8 – Zippie101 Dolan’s Bro
One night Dolan’s Brother didn't feel tired
so he got out of bed and went to the kitchen
for a snack. He opened the fridge, and suddenly
he heard a noise come from upstairs. He figured
it must be the dog so he went back to bed.
He woke up an hour later to the sound of whispering.
It was quiet and he couldn't make out what
it was saying. He rolled over and there was
a man with a ripped jacket, ripped jeans and
long black hair kneeling at his bed. As soon
as he saw him, the man got up and ran towards
the door, passing right through it. Needless
to say Dolan’s brother didn't get that much
sleep that night.
7 – TerrorClaws Melissa and Gooby
When Melissa was in high school, a student
who was pregnant had committed suicide by
hanging herself in the middle of one of the
classrooms. It was rumoured that her ghost
could be seen hanging there after dark. She
and her friend Gooby decided to sneak into
the school at night and investigate. They
didn’t notice anything unusual until they
heard someone sobbing. They turned their torches
and saw a girl in school uniform with her
arms reaching for them, screaming. They screamed
back and ran for their lives. Apparently to
this day you can still hear her crying when
the classroom is quiet.
6 – HasherBrownz Doopie
Doopie was sitting in the library after school
one time, when she heard someone walking,
and letting out groans of pain. She felt a
tap on her shoulder, and turned to see a man.
He had scars on the front of his head. His
arms were longer than a humans should be,
his legs twisted like an animals. He smiled
and whispered "Lets play hide and seek, you
have three seconds." She ran, and ran, running
down the hall, and heard a screech as he followed.
She looked back to see him grinning wildly.
Later that year, a fellow student ended up
with horrible scratches on her face from what
she said was a crazy creature in the library.
She hasn’t gone back to the library since.
5 – taurphan Emojie
Emojie had just finished watching an anime
marathon, and was getting ready to go to bed.
It was a stormy, rainy night and lightning
flashed in the sky. As he brushed his teeth,
he looked out his window to find a white labrador,
fast asleep at the base of a tree. She went
outside to call out to it but when he looked
out, he saw nothing. He scurried back upstairs
to continue with his bedtime routine. He looked
out the window again and there was the dog
sleeping! The next morning on the news a white
labrador had been found slaughtered in the
backyard of a house nearby. The next few nights,
the ghost of the dog reappeared, sleeping
peacefully next to the tree stump.
4 – kilgore5 GhostToast
One time GhostToast awoke in his dorm room
to a very chilling image. As he opened his
eyes one morning, he found a figure standing
over his roommate holding a clipboard and
seemingly taking notes on it. The person then
slowly turned around to look at GhostToast
but he couldn’t recognise its face until
it did something horrifying. As it looked
at him, its whole face split open and it began
screaming. There was no actual sound coming
from its "mouth" but he could feel it. He
immediately retreated back under his covers.
When he finally had the courage to look again,
it was gone. Needless to say he couldn’t
fall back to sleep for a very long time.
3 – aRandomChavez121322 Pandora
One night at around 3:00 am, Pandora was still
awake watching videos when she heard her front
door open. At first she thought it was her
roommate coming back from a party. But when
she walked out of her room, she saw a strange
shadow creature standing in front of her.
She stood there in shock, and couldn’t move
her body. Panicking, she closed her eyes as
tightly as she could. And when she opened
them, she was in her bathroom, lying on the
floor with no idea how she got there. She
never found out what happened or what the
creature was.
2 – RavenousRamen Hellbent
One night Hellbent woke up at around 2:00
AM, and realized he could hear a faint music
box. He got up and went to the attic to check
it out, and find a bizarre looking creature
sitting in the moonlight. It was a tall, alien-like
girl, with short grey hair, a pink dress,
and scars across her throat and legs. She
also had no eyes, just sockets, with blood
pouring out of them. She was tampering with
the music box, and looked up to see Hellbent.
"Can you help me? Please..?" Her fingers were
connected, and looked like claws, she had
trouble winding up the music box. Hellbent
panicked and ran back to his room, slamming
the door behind him.
1 – And number 1 was submitted by me…
When I was very young I used to ghost hunt
in my house using an old video camera with
night vision, as well as a tape recorder.
I used to call out to see what would reply
and eventually something did. After a series
of “yes or no” questions I learned that
the spirit I had contacted was a young girl
who I called “Jenny.” My friends would
come over and spend the night sometimes and
I’d introduce them to Jenny, then laugh
at how scared they’d become when I asked
her to move an object to make a noise - and
then it happened. It was great. Well, eventually
I fell out of the ghost hunting hobby, but
when I was around twenty years old I started
to have these very weird dreams. In them I’d
see a small girl hiding in the shadows of
rooms in my house, watching me, and sometimes
she’d run at me screaming in the darkness,
as if trying to grab me. I didn’t think
much of it at first, but I’d have the same
dream almost every week. This went on for
about four months until I grew so freaked
out I went and talked to a friend of mine
who was more experienced in this stuff than
I was. After a long talk, he asked me about
Jenny - the spirit I hadn’t even thought
of in years, and he told me that most likely
she was trying to make contact with me again
for an unknown reason. It was disturbing,
I admit, but I followed his advice and calmly
told her on evening while I was alone to leave
me be and to stop entering into my dreams.
After that, the dreams stopped completely…
But the fact that Jenny was able to sneak
into my head and project horrifying images
into my dreams still disturbs me to this day.
Huge thanks for the folks over on our Planet
Dolan subreddit for submitting their stories.
