3 Scary TRUE Sleepover Stories · Crime and Horror

• 0:05
  Speaker 1: This happened when I was 15 years old. My best
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: friend Anthony wanted me to come over for the night
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: since his parents would be gone all weekend. I rode
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: my bike over and put it in his backyard before
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: letting myself in through his back door. We played basically
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: every video game he had, from FIFA all the way
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: to Call of Duty, with popcorn and other junk food
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: spilled out all over the floor. As the night progressed,
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: we moved from video games to watching half a movie
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: and getting bored to doing prank calls at close to
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: 10 o'clock. Anthony made a few calls to different pizza places.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: When it was my turn, I just dialed a few
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: random numbers in hopes to get someone at their house. On, say,
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: my fourth attempt, I finally reached somebody. A guy with
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: a deep and rough voice picked up, answering with a
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: yeah instead of a hello. Anthony's laughing in the background
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: made me stumble with my words mid-sentence, ultimately cracking up
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: into laughter. I had never done a prank call, so
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: I sucked at it. The guy on the other end
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: was silent. I regained a straight face and tried to
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: continue with the call. It went something like this. Uh, sir,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: would it be alright if I borrowed one of the
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: wheels from your car? What's your name, kid? My name
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: is Bob. Really? You sure it's not Anthony? It hit
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: me like a brick. I looked up at Anthony, whose
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: face was noticeably full of fear. I hung up the phone,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: not wanting to be on the line with whoever that
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: was for another second. Anthony. Who the hell was that?
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: I asked him. I don't know, he told me. Does
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: your caller ID info display your name or something? No,
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: it shows my dad's name. We hopped on the computer
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: and did some research, trying to figure out how it
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: was possible to get someone's name through their phone number.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: It didn't make sense how he could get Anthony's name
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: so quickly. He was way too young at the time
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: to be on any of those personal information sharing websites.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: We ended up asking a question on Yahoo Answers, since
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: no one had a similar experience. The question turned up
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: no answers. I suggested he call his dad, but he
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: said he wasn't supposed to have anybody over for the weekend,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: so he didn't want to call. We planned on sleeping
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: in the living room, so we just resumed watching the
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: movie that we hadn't finished from earlier. Right after the
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: phone call had left my mind, Me and Anthony looked
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: at each other when we heard his front storm door
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: opening and then the doorknob to the front door began
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: to turn. It only was able to turn about halfway
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: before the lock restricted it. Anthony turned off the TV
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: and I went over to the window to see who
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: it was. I spread the blinds open. There was a
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: tall guy standing outside. He noticed the blinds moving and
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: turned to look at me. I practically threw the blinds
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: back into place. Me and Anthony hid in the kitchen,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: listening for any more noises. We heard the sound of
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: the gate to the backyard opening, as it was right
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: outside the kitchen window. God damn it, I said. I
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: forgot to shut the back door. Anthony urged me to
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: run and shut it. I made it to the hallway
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: leading to his back door, and froze. There was a
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: silhouette standing outside the back door. I don't think he
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: noticed me, but He was surely looking into the house.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: He opened the door and stepped inside. I tiptoed to
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: the kitchen and motioned for Anthony to follow me upstairs.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: We made it to his room as quietly as possible,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: pulling the door shut to avoid making any noise. We
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: crawled under his bed. He had cloth covering the bottom
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: of his bed, so you couldn't see anything under it
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: unless you actually moved the cloth. The doors downstairs all opened,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: each one getting closer to the stairs. Thumps finally began
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: up the stairs, and he was right outside the door now.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: The door to the room opened. I could hear Anthony's breathing.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: It was too loud. Footsteps moved over to the closet,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: and then the closet opened. I could hear the coat
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: hangers being slid around as the fabric of the jackets
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: and coats rubbed against each other. Footsteps moved over to
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: the bed and stopped. I felt like my heart was
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: about to explode out of my chest. Anthony's breathing was
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: too loud. I had to cover his mouth with my hand.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Nothing but silence in the room now. We laid still
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: for so long, I almost thought he wasn't even in
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: the room anymore. I moved my hand away from Anthony's
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: mouth and whispered in his ear, You think we can
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: make a run for it? He was about to answer
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: when the most disturbing, memory haunting scream I'd ever heard
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: filled my ears as Anthony was seemingly dragged out from
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: under the bed. I crawled out and saw him struggling
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: with the man. I desperately looked around for anything to
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: use as a weapon. I settled with the screwdriver sitting
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: on his nightstand. I hurried over to the man and
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: drove the screwdriver into his back. He let go of
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Anthony as he let out a scream of agony, giving
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: us time to get the hell out of the house.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: Running onto the road would give away our position too easily.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: It would take too long to make it to his
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: neighbor's house. We dove for the tree line in the
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: woods and took cover behind a bush, watching the house.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: The back door opened as the man stepped outside, looking
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: around the backyard. He then looked out to the woods.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: I felt his eyes pass me as he scanned through
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: the tree line. It seemed that it was too dark
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: for him to see us. Then, he turned his head
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: back in our direction. I ducked behind the bush. Joe,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: he's coming. What? Dude, get up, we gotta run. He
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: was right. The man was approaching us fast. How could
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: he have seen us? We ran through the woods with
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: the leaves crunching under us, giving away our position. When
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: Anthony tripped over something, I crouched down with him, hoping
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: we had run far enough. Not even 20 seconds later,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: Oncoming footsteps from the direction we were running from came fast.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: They slowed down only two trees away from us as
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: we lay face down in the leaves. Moments later, the
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: footsteps take off in another direction. We waited until we
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: could no longer hear them and took off back in
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: the direction of the house. While running, over the sound
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: of leaves crushing and my heavy breathing, I could swear
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: I heard leaves crushing from behind us. We made it
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: back to his backyard, into his house. and this time,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: remembering to shut the back door. We were now able
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: to call the police. Anthony stayed on the line with them,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: while I patrolled the back windows, making sure nobody was
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: out there. It was so dark, though, I couldn't see anything.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: So I did something that seems stupid today. I turned
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: on his backyard lights, and immediately in the distance, over
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: by the woods, I saw him, standing in front of
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: a big tree. He turned off back into the woods
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: and disappeared out of sight. That was the last time
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: me or Anthony ever saw him. I would be lying
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: if I told you we heard the occasional knocks at
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: our windows or something cliche. No, that was it. Five
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: years have passed and nothing has happened. Do I wonder
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: if it was somehow linked to the prank call? Maybe.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Does it make sense? Not really. But yeah, this was
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: the story of how me and my still best friend
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Anthony almost died during a break-in. Me and my wife
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: have had our fair share of arguments, but there was
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: this one night that she wouldn't stop bitching over the
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: stupidest shit. It got to the point where I forgot
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: to put the toilet seat down, and she lectured me
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: at the top of her lungs with an ear-piercing voice
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: that I just couldn't take it anymore. I called my
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: buddy Paul up, and he told me I could crash
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: there for the night. I was exhausted, and I didn't
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: need to deal with my crazy wife at the time.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Paul had a huge house, which was another thing my
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: wife always yelled at me about, how all my friends
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: have nicer houses than us. We had a few beers
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: and had a bro chat. He suggested I stay there
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: for as long as I needed, but I assured him
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: I'd only stay for one night. I didn't want to
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: be a bother. I slept in one of his guest bedrooms. Surprisingly,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: he has three guest bedrooms, but has only needed to
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: use one of them so far. He never uses the
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: other two bedrooms and only plans on using them for
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: a party or something like that. All three guest bedrooms
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: in the house are lined up next to each other
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: while Paul's bedroom is across the hall. It's a weird
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: setup for sure, but it let me hear strange noises
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: coming from the next room over. I assumed it was
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: Paul doing something in there, but it quickly got annoying
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: so I decided to just walk over and see what
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: was going on. I tried the doorknob, but it was locked.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: I cracked the door open to Paul's room and asked
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: him what the noise was He was already in bed
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: as well. He didn't hear anything. Upon asking why he
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: kept the door locked, he told me he always keeps
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: those two doors locked as he keeps some personal belongings
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: in there. I warned him that there was a strange
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: noise coming from the room and he told me to
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: just go back to sleep and if I continue to
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: hear it, come back to him. So I did. I
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: went back to bed and the noises were completely gone now.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: A half hour passed. I was starting to drift off
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: to sleep at last. when I heard the slightest tap
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: on the wall. It came from the other side, the
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: next room over. It was followed by a faint voice.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: I jolted up from the bed and ran back to
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Paul's room. This time, he took me seriously. He got
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: the key to the two doors and unlocked the one
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: next to mine. We stepped inside and felt a breeze
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: hit us on the way in. The window was completely
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: open along with the closets. We dug through the entire room.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: The bed had marks on it as if someone were
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: on it. The closet was full of empty bags, and
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: his valuable belongings that were in his drawers were gone.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Paul suddenly ran out to the hallway. I was confused
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: at first, but I caught on quickly as he was
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: checking the other room. I was right by his side
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: as he unlocked the door to the third guest bedroom,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: and the first thing we saw was a black figure
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: jumping out the window onto the patio roof. Paul was
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: about to jump out after him, but we instead both
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: ran outside through the back door in hopes to catch him.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: He was gone already. It's a good thing we didn't
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: catch him though, because what we found in this room
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: was far more disturbing. The white sheets on the bed
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: were stained with blood. The closet had the butcher knife
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: he had been missing sitting on the floor with a
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: few blood spots on it. And of course, all of
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: his valuable belongings were gone. These people, most likely homeless
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: and likely dangerous drug addicts, were living in his home
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: for a little more than a week. He had even
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: mentioned something about how fast his food goes, and yet
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: he's so skinny when we were drinking. That made a
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: lot more sense now. As far as we know, none
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: of them were ever caught. I remember it like it
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: was yesterday. It was my first sleepover, an important part
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: of my childhood. It was my good friend. His name
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: was Jordan. We were 10 years old. He had a
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: huge basement where we could play video games until 1
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: in the morning and then sleep on the couches. Skipping
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: the teeth brushing like two little rebels, we went straight
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: to trying to get some sleep on the couches. I
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: fell asleep with ease. I woke up at some unknown time.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: I realized the TV was still on with a blank screen.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: It was giving off a very dim light, but it
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: was enough to notice something in the far corner of
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: the basement by the stairs. It was some tall object.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: I didn't know what it was and I can't really
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: describe how it looked. All I know is it almost
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: reached the ceiling. The sound of the TV turning off
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: and the small amount of light vanishing was almost enough
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: to make me start screaming. I shut my eyes and
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: just laid there motionless. I don't even remember falling back asleep.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: All I remember is waking up to a sudden and
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: horrid screaming coming from upstairs. It was Jordan's mom. He
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: woke up as well, and we looked at each other
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: before sprinting upstairs to his parents' room. His mom was
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: sitting there crying as his dad was turning the room
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: upside down looking for what she saw. He barged out
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: past us looking for anybody in the house, but there
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: was nobody in the house. No signs of entry or exit.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: I'm still friends with Jordan today, and the last time
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: I've brought this up, he said his mom doesn't like
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: to talk about it. But she did once admit she
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: saw a tall, dark figure standing by their bedroom door.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: I'm undoubtedly sure that's what I saw in the basement
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: that night.
