1. The Whistler
On December 19th, 2015, a post was created asking Reddit users to describe their creepiest experiences. Of all the experiences mentioned, one of them stands out among the others.
A user named bingbong1234 shared an experience that occurred in a certain swamp on the edge of his neighbourhood in Lansing, Michigan, in which he heard a mysterious whistling noise. You can find the whole post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/3xg36j/serious_what_is_the_creepiest_thing_that_has_ever/cy4f6mm
He then uploaded this video to YouTube, for proof: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9OLi6A2rzU
Just a side note, an amazing YouTuber who you might have heard of, known as Lazy Masquerade (I watch his content daily, it's so good), uploaded a video called '5 Truly Mysterious & Disturbing Folklore from Reddit Users', The Whistler being one of the stories. Here's a link to his video: https://youtu.be/Tlzi0Wu-95w
2. Dark Confession Bear
Everyone on here should know what the Confession Bear meme is by now, but on the slim chance you don't, it's basically a bear looking very sad making lighthearted and funny confessions.
A few years ago, a post was made on the AnimalAdvice subreddit by Naratto, an account that has since been deleted, called 'Finally have the guts to say it'. The picture above shows what he posted.
There were debates over this; some people think the post was fake, and others thought it was real. The Reddit user replied saying that part of it was true, but not specifying which was true. The post then gained some infamy, leading Naratto to delete his account. This post shows that you should be careful about what you post on the Internet, as it could have severe consequences.

3. Jimmy C
This story is one of the most mysterious ever posted on Reddit. The story tells the tale of a man who goes to beach with his girlfriend and meets a man named Jimmy C, who claims to have jumped off the San Fransisco Bridge. The user claims that he didn't think that Jimmy was a human, because he has extremely long fingernails, refers to himself as 'we' and he even says to the user: "You were supposed to go fishing today."
He points at the beach across the street.
"If you had, I would have drowned you in that ocean"
Before he leaves the user, he tells him that the next time the user sees him, he will be driving a black Mercedes with the license plate saying 'UTOPIA'. This would make the user paranoid for years.
The original story was taken down for unexplainable reasons, however, someone reposted the story, which you can view here: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/4jinxv/what_happened_to_the_jimmy_c_demon_story_in_the/
Update: https://www.reddit.com/r/Thetruthishere/comments/5adjmy/remember_the_creepy_story_about_jimmy_c_and_the/
Lazy Masquerade also narrated this story in his video called '9 Scary True Reddit Stories - Late Halloween Celebration', which you can view here: https://youtu.be/bKH87j9B5gk
4. ISIS AMA
For those of you who aren't familiar with Reddit, AMA's, aka Ask Me Anythings, are basically QnAs on Reddit hosted by celebrities or interesting people e.g. scientists, members of government etc. Many people have done an AMA, including Matt Damon, the former actor of Barney the Dinosaur and even the former president of America himself, Barack Obama.
However, the one AMA that probably shouldn't exist was one made by a ISIS Jihadi who went by the name chechclear. You can find his AMA here: https://www.reddit.com/r/casualiama/comments/3ulkob/islamic_state_isisisilis_fighter_taking_questions/
Shortly after the AMA had ended, chechclear was killed in an air strike. Here is a link to an article about his death: http://www.geopolmonitor.com/isis-jihadi-from-reddit-ask-me-anything-killed-in-airstrike/amp/
5. The Lamp
This one is really bizarre. Years ago, a post was made on the AskReddit asking users if they ever felt a deep connection to a person you met in a dream, only to wake up realising they never existed. One reply definitely stands out.
The user describes how in college, the user was accidentally assaulted by a football player. After he got up, he went on with his day. Eventually he got married and then had kids.
One day, he noticed there was something wrong with the lamp, that it was still 3D, but wrong. He would then go on to look at the lamp every living second of his life, ignoring his wife and kids, who then went over to her mother with the kids.
After he continues to stare at the lamp, it then cuts back to reality, when he is being taken to hospital after being knocked over. After being released from hospital, he went into a 3 year depression, knowing that his wife and children didn't exist and that he thought he lived 5 years, when he in fact only lived 5 minutes. It's truly an unsettling thought, to think the people that you have known for a while don't exist.

"This guy's taking Roy off the grid!" Also, head trauma is real.

Item 5 was similar to a Star Trek episode "The Inner Light"

1 of the best episodes ever, I was hoping this comment would be higher, it's the episode that got my wife into Star Trek.

As a kid, I had the same recurring nightmare: a man all in black that I couldn't see his face. 1/
MagicallyMike
He would chase me every time, and I would wake up terrified of him. 2/

Though the dream took place in different locations, it was often in my basement, who I was unfinished, cement, dark & creepy. 3/

Which* was. Sorry for the typo!
MagicallyMike
One night, I think I was about 8, I had the same dream again. Same scary man in black that I couldn't quite see his face. 4/
MagicallyMike
Up until this point, he had never talked to me. I would just see him turn his gaze towards me, and I would fill with terror and run. 5/
MagicallyMike
But this time was different. It was the umpteenth time I'd seen this man in my dream, and something clicked. 6/

The ISIS AMA is equal parts fascinating and terrifying
THEAWESOMEUSERNAME
When I read that he was killed in an air strike a said "Got eem!" Aloud

"Would you mind providing your GPS coordinates?" Ha ha nice try Buckaroo...
demondog68
I found it extremely frustrating as he never truly answered a vast majority of the questions. He gave very blanket answers and 1/?
demondog68
Often disregarded other parts of the questions. Like i can respect his faith and such but he would never give any insight to how he felt 2/?
demondog68
About for instance the decision to take a life. I was very intrigued to read this but i quickly got bored as all his responses were the same
Bortus
Yea that was actually fascinating. His answers were painful though, he never gave straight answers. A little bit of a shame.
kal1097
He never gave straight answers because like most religious fanatics there is rarely ever any critical thinking, just brainwashed blind faith
JustLetMeInAlreadyFFS
His username "chechclear"... if you were using the internet during the late 90's - early 00's you have probably stumbled upon that video...
magnvsm
Care to explain?
s1yb00ts
My thoughts exactly
AustraliaManUnleashed
It shouldn't be terrifying. Of course they feel justified in what they do. Did you think they hadn't decided if they were committed before?
AustraliaManUnleashed
Be careful of the demonisation that comes from the media.
JimBexleySpeedisaliveandwellontheshoresofFiji
It's more just a reminder of not only human capacity for evil but what we'll say and do to justify it. I already knew they weren't (1)
JimBexleySpeedisaliveandwellontheshoresofFiji
(2) just animals with guns, so it's just an insight into what we all could become if the circumstances were right
AustraliaManUnleashed
Nicely said
TheFlyingTripleSpinningAtomicScrotumVaporizer
Overall it confirmed what I suspected- even an IS fighter you might consider "reasonable" relies on blind faith in Allah, in the end.
StopShootingMe
Do many people you know consider IS fighters "reasonable"?
DrSparken
They're talking about a specific case - "an ISIS fighter" - not the general. This person was willing to discuss, so could be "reasonable".
KeeleonOhms
It should be no surprise. Theres very little rationality behind groups like that.
bcowan11
That was my conclusion also. Too much trust in what he was taught.
DarthFutuza
What probably bugged me most is he never talked about why he personally believed it all. Just kept spouting propaganda.
Bortus
Thats what I noticed as well. I was hoping for some quotes, sources, some sort of real explanation. An infallible faith wasnt enough.
apercent
I wish the reddits could have had a real discussion instead of trying to take it out on him. It was clear he wasn't changing his mind
718bmt
What thought provoking question would you have asked?
NotACanadian
What was terrifying was how similar his personality and logic was to my more religiously conservative Southern friends.
Gayforbae
That's religion for ya.
xkr73
The only thread worth reading was between the US serviceman and the IS fighter. A reasoned discussion between opponents

I found that interesting too. Really they're both great at writing, I was impressed
YeOldFartsniffer
That was incredible read
Bortus
Yea, its a shame the IS' reply was so poor. Still an interesting read, but it was just a load of waffle about faith and dedication.
rando53
"Is Islam a religion of peace?" "Yes. We must bomb and behead to preserve that peace."

If you would seek peace, prepare for war - Sun Tzu, The Art of War

KeeleonOhms
The going to war bit is a little different from beheading people on live broadcasts and frushing prisoners with tanks. Most religions still
KeeleonOhms
At least believe in mercy.
AustraliaManUnleashed
Tell me about these religions that believe in mercy?
AustraliaManUnleashed
On the scale of ways to die. Being beheaded is still fairly fast. Imagine watching a broadcast of the torturing a person for hours on end.
EthanRamsay
i wanted the last one to be a three fiddy joke...
IJustLikeToArgue
That last one reminds me of the movie "Jacob's Ladder."

I thought the guy in the last one was sexually assaulted, and I was like "What? He tripped? Fell? Landed on his dick?"

Efreeti
Yeah, it seems like the me in my dreams is living a way better life, though sometimes scary things happen there.
YutteHermsgervordenbrotborda
I have a lot of dreams that seem real.. Some good, some bad. Some are just depressing. I've had a couple where I'm just with some (1/2)
YutteHermsgervordenbrotborda
(2/2) really amazing friends. Then I wake up like "haha that was fun" then it dawns on me that I don't actually have anyone like that :')

Happens to me too.

YourMomJokes
True stories from the Internet are true.
ghostcalib3r
I definitely believe the last one. I experienced something similar when I lost consciousness due to an overdose.
SjorsM
Sure I believe someone had a vivid dream. He however did not live a complete couple of years in his head in a few minutes.
TheAdamantite
Why not? You have a distorted sense of the passage of time when you're unconscious.
SjorsM
Exactly, distorted. He didn't actually experience every day (let alone every second) of what he thought to be years in this dream. He 1/2
SjorsM
didn't come out an old man (spoiler alert) like in Inception. He just dreamt he had passed a few years without experiencing passage of time.

BoozeHound001
I got one but it's long so bear with me. Few years ago I was camping with friends, we would go hiking and BS around the campfire. We planned
BoozeHound001
for a week so we had plenty of time, on the 3rd day a stranger came over and introduced himself. He said he was camping alone and was just
BoozeHound001
on his way back from a hike. We all could tell something was off about him serious case of crazy eyes. We didn't really think anything of it
BoozeHound001
He politely left and we all turned in for the night, when we woke up we found out that someone broke into my friend's truck and stole the
BoozeHound001
machete I brought, this pissed me off because it was my father's. We wanted to go tell crazy eyes about this and see if he had heard
Tryskel
ok now I know where this is going

A friend of mine was traumatized after doing acid. He said he'd lived a whole life, growing old and dying, only to wake up young again.
Affray
I often fantasise about time traveling back in to my own five year old body and re-living my life with my current level of knowledge.
pyrrhlis
I would just do that because I'm the kind of guy that only thinks of cool comebacks to stuff like a week later.

I'm pretty quick so I'm good there. I would use it to more to wreak vengeance on those who wronged me. I'm not a super villain, I swear.

When 18 I dreamt a long dream about being married to a guy with a rich father who made it possible for us to rent an apartment on Manhattan.

It all felt like completely real. The dream even contained memories from the rest of our relationship.
MatildaLindvik
Years later I fell in love with a guy looking just like him, but got rejected.
NorfolkBoy

dweadpiewitwobbits
It is good to hear from someone that is doing well and knows it! Too many that are "doing well" just want more.

It making sense is in no way proof. We also have imagination and it makes sense our brain would also uses that.

tokenhooker
so I described the lake in detail. She asked, "look right, what do you see?" I looked right and there was a woman sitting next to me.
tokenhooker
A blonde, curly haired woman, that I've never before or since seen. She was smiling at me, and I felt calm like I never have before.
tokenhooker
Almost 12 years later, I cannot forget her face, and the way I felt. I've never seen anyone even remotely like her. I can't explain it.

He was an older brother/uncle-type figure to me when I first moved to this country, so I think all my consciousnesses want him to be happy.

Considering I've had dreams populated by fictional characters I would say that you don't need to have seen the person IRL for them to appear
DrawSomethingEveryDay
fictional or not, you have seen them before dreaming of them

If anything, it's likely multiple faces getting blurred together.
awolwookiee
Isn't that all faces? One face with minor tweaks and then another with aditional tweaks?
Spamamdorf
Of course, I'm just pointing out the "irl" section of his statement need not apply you just need to have seen them or imagined

I've always heard the same. With the caveat being our memories aren't entirely accurate so even if you see them again it might not register.
nycterelis
The FFA part of our brain is how we remember faces. Think of it as better than most high powered and high tech facial recognition software.

TIL

The other thing is that your memory of the dream face can be fuzzy, so if you see another face IRL, you might think you're seeing a match

when it really isn't. Human memory has numerous serious flaws.

I recently experienced something similar to The Lamp. Wasn't knocked out or anything. Just dreamt..it was so perfectly real..then I woke up.

A few days ago I had a really strange realistic dream. I don't remember anything that actually happened- just what I felt. (1/2)

(2/2)I woke up because I was sleeping weird and hurting my jaw. Seems like a good thing since whatever was happening in that dream was awful

I've had a similar experience. It was so real. I knew it was a "dream" while I was dreaming but it felt more like an alternate reality than

A dream. I talked to a recently deceased person I had a weird connection to but never met (long story). We had a long convo that seemed to

Last hours. At the end I told them, you know...You're dead. I'm sorry. They were upset at first but I comforted them. Then they started to

Fade away and I calmly explained, I am waking up now. I promise you I will find you here again one day. This is our secret place. Woke up.

You want creepy and disturbing? One time, at my grandparents house, I found a piece of sweet corn on their bath soap.

Once I was working at a camp and I was cleaning the showers and I found a slice of cheese where the soap would be

I just spent 15 minutes reading an AMA by a jihadist who got blown up and this is by far the funniest and most disturbing thing I've seen.

Well at least when you ate it to find out if it was salted or sweet, well, at least you knew it was clean I guess.

My friend doesn't get this, anyone cares to explain?
keyblader1985
There's only one natural way for corn to get on soap..
WhyAreAllNamesTakenExceptForThisOne
Friend still doesn't get it. English is not his first language, does that matter in this case? Sexual reference?
keyblader1985
Corn was in poop. They used the soap directly on their pooper.

I like that both grandparents are implicated. I laughed out loud at this one. Thank you.

How did you know it was sweet, though? Did... did you taste it?
pursuant2me
Of course...in hindsight, I probably shouldn't have.
t91blacknteal1
Haha HINDsight
STINKPICKEL
The real question is, was the corn intact, or was it only the skin of the kernel filled with feces, and if not how'd it get on the soap?

In the beginning of bootcamp (USMC), they kept us awake for 72 hours straight. After about 48 hours I started hallucinating.
