“I still get chills down my spine when I think about it over ten years later.”

While hospitals can be sad places, they can also be rather creepy places.

Here’s what they had to say:

1.

Hospital room with an empty bed, nightstand, and medical equipment. Dimly lit, creating a calm yet somber atmosphere

What I had seen that day didn’t hit me until a few years later."

“I was a veterinary technician at a research/teaching hospital.

I put the lid back on very quickly.

Hospital bed with pillows, an oxygen outlet on the wall to the left, and medical equipment on a side table to the right next to a phone

Apparently, there would be a lab later that afternoon on tendon repair or something.”

“Wasnt what I saw, but what I heard.

One was a baby, only a few months old, and the other was like eight years old.

I can still hear the screaming wails.

I still get chills down my spine when I think about it over ten years later.”

They all cawed briefly when she passed and took off."

“One night, we had a deceased patient [at the hospital].

I had to go down the back door by the morgue to let in the mortician.

This mortician was 7 foot easily.

He wore a fur cloak like he was Jon Snow or some shit.

The entire time I escorted him to the body, he was mumbling to himself.

We helped him secure the body to a gurney, and I helped him back downstairs.

As we came in, he had been talking to her.

“A patient passed away from cardiac arrest, but he kept twitching almost 40 minutes after his death.

I was definitely freaking out the whole time.”

“I went down an elevator in a hospital to get to where I needed to be.

I kept walking through the area and opened like these giant doors into the waiting room.

It was normal in there.

It was just like going from eerie to familiar, which is so vivid in my mind.”

He was screaming and banging his head on the headrest over and over again.

I understand why he was strapped in, but I felt horrible for him.

It stuck with me, and I had nightmares that night.

Then, I saw three or four doctors rush into the waiting room and go straight to the back.

A few minutes later, I was called back early to see my dad.

Turns out the alarm was for my dad.

He died in that hospital.”

“My sister-in-law’s gallbladder got removed, and the nursing staff was showing it to other patients.”

“I worked as a nurse, and everything was really calm on my first night shift.

It was a station for stroke patients, and all 30 patients were asleep.

We rushed to the computer to see it was on a different station, the palliative care one.

(She was alone at night).

It smelled horrible and seemed to be a mixture of very thick blood and, god knows what.

In the action of stopping the liquid, something got on my shirt and even in my shoe.

It took over 20 minutes to get him in the ‘fridge.’

The cigarette after this was the most relaxing one Ive had in a long time.”

“I was in nursing school and was assigned a patient in oncology colon cancer.

Right before that lady died, she turned Incredible Hulk green.
