Anonymous Coward User ID: 75776388 United States 10/31/2017 08:43 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Gott home to apartment complex after dark and saw a big shadow. Neighbors Doberman Pincer dog snarling softly at us - poised to pounce ! I had my umbrella and opened it in front of me - my apartment on second floor like a condo complex and I parked 100yds away as it was late and spaces taken. Growling ensued but I could no longer see the red of its eyes! I heard breaking off sight would make them go away- but this one was a trained guard dog - off leash at 10pm alone! As ai turned to run the gauntlet - umbrella outstretched - I heard the dogs owner call it off in the darkness No apologies - he just disappeared with the animal My heart was in my throat as I walked upstairs to my apartment door A week later I heard barking from a garage on property and found out he kept 3 of these dogs in a garage - and reported it. They were gone the next week. I didn't want that to happen again Sounded like it was gonna rip me to shreds MY hackles went up - hair on back of neck felt like it stood up in alarm. |

User ID: 75777284 United States 10/31/2017 11:48 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was kidnapped and robbed in Rome by a taxi driver. I was more pissed off than scared because I missed my flight. Let's see. I was arrested in Germany because I was running from the police. But, I was more confused than scared during that one. Most of the times I've truly been scared is due to me failing at being responsible or unable to control myself. Last Edited by Zedakah on 10/31/2017 11:48 AM |

When we got out started sinking like in quick sand I pulled myself up the bank with a poison ivy vine it only got worse after that. But sinking in quick sand like mud is mine |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 75263622 United States 10/31/2017 12:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This girl I knew died. Long story. The night following her funeral which I attended... It was around 11:50 pm and I was asleep. I woke up because I felt like someone was at the foot of my bed. I woke up and instantly felt the energy of her. No she did not talk to me nor did I see anything/her. All I could feel and know was that it felt like her energy. It was so freaked out I woke my husband and said... Babe I'm going to drive myself to the emergency room and that I was fine and I would be back later. That is all I said cause I thought I was loosing it. I was to embarrassed/freaked to tell him why I was going. Well.. On the drive there she was also in my back seat of my car. What gets me is that if this was my friend here on earth then why I was I so wigged out that she idk... was just saying goodbye to me? Anyways. It was real and was very disturbing to me. Btw... she stuck around for like a month or more. I couldn't/wouldn't shower unless my husband was home. Like I said this lasted for a while and then one day I woke up and just like that.. no longer felt her presence. The End. I get the chills just even remembering how that felt back then. *shivers |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 67673619 Canada 10/31/2017 01:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Came across a mom and three bear cubs and the one cub ran behind the mom she must have been 500 pounds. I was about 20 feet away when she started bouncing on both paws. I started backing up and as soon as i took one step back she swatted the ground with her paw and started to charge me. I did what you are not supposed to do apparently, but I ran like a mother fucked. I ran fast and slid into a ditch feet first. I could hear her on my ass and when I fell into the ditch, I immediately tilted my head back to look up and she was towering above me just out of arms reach. I scrambled down the ditch but she just followed me on top for almost 100 feet until I made a break for it. There was a road on one side and the bear in a field on the other side. I jumped out of the ditch and ran like a mofo not looking back. Made it home and realized how close it rally was. It was.pretty scary moment |

Kamchatka
Culturally outdated by choice User ID: 72996011 United States 10/31/2017 02:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was driving around on gravel roads smoking a joint in VERY backwoodsy country, though it wasn't too great a map distance from town. My car started making weird noises and I pulled into an open field entrance. I believed I was only about one hill from the highway, so I left the car and wandered deep into the field (in what I assumed was the proper direction) even though I was wearing a dress and work pumps. When I got to the top of the hill, I only saw another hill ahead of me, so I turned back toward the car. About 50 feet away, a trio of hillbilly-looking young men with overalls, shotguns, big beards, and none-too-friendly expressions were walking alongside the woods parallel to the path I was following and coming toward me. I realized I was in a perfect situation to disappear forever. I said "Hi" and kept walking toward the car, sure that they were going to run up and tackle me at any moment. Indeed, they weren't far away when I made it back to the car, locked the doors and peeled out of there, "funny car noises" be damned. 45 years later, I imagine they were farmers on their own land, wondering WTF I was doing back there and most of the danger was in my head. And I also realize that I had done literally everything stupid I possibly could to get myself into a potentially very bad situation. Weed and I were not good brain partners! More deplorable all the time. |
