“It was like the darkness was chasing me.”
And, oh, tell me (and creep me out) they did:
1.
I saw a lady in the bottom corridor and recognized her as ‘Jane.'"

“I’m a night nurse in an ICU.
It was as if the ICU spawned the child and then took her back.

“I worked nights at a VA hospital.
I would even hear whispers.
It didn’t bother me much, as I knew all the deaths that happened in the hospital.

After a while, I just got used to it.”

“I worked nights in a datacenter, and sometimes I was the only person in this warehouse-sized building.

I was convinced that one day the lights would flash on and Id see something…bad.”
“I worked evenings cleaning the cancer center at a local hospital.
Me and another coworker were cleaning it one evening and were completely alone.

I cannot stress this enough: We were ALONE.”
you’ve got the option to hear the door beep, and then the latch clicks to unlock.
There are no other entrances.

We both heard someone shout ‘HEY!’
We both looked around but didn’t see anyone.
We called out, asking this ‘person’ what they needed, and there was no response.

We searched the entire center, and there was no one.
We noped out of there so fast.
Our boss didn’t even question us.”

I worked nights often, and the building is pretty creepy, and the neighborhood is pretty unsafe.
At around 5 a.m., after the storm passed, power was out all over the city.

Since everything is kept cold, usually theyre either dead or very close to being so.
The coolest little guy I ever found was a black scorpion!
Id say he was a good three to four inches long."
“Were in Massachusetts, so this was a big deal!
Unfortunately, he didnt make it.

“I did a few overnights at the dog kennel I worked at in college.
Pretty chill, and you could just do homework and pet dogs all night.
Then one night I heard someone talking in the back.
I checked the security cameras, and not a soul was in the entire facility besides me.
It scared the shit out of me and was my last overnight shift.”
“Back in the day, I did a short stint as a security guard at a shopping center.
This happens again the next time I’m on nights…and the next.
It made my skin crawl.”

I vividly remember that it was wagging its tail.”
“When I was in my 20s, I worked retail, as people in their 20s frequently do.
I pulled a lot of closing shifts alone.
The creepiest thing I ever saw?
That would be the man who waited outside for me every night for about two weeks.
I’d see him through the shop window, standing across the street and just staring.”
Mostly, I just hope he hasn’t ended up hurting anyone else."

“Im an operating room RN, and I work nights.
We are a trauma hospital, so there is always a team on standby for any emergencies.
