We often fear the supernatural, but the scariest monsters are often the humans living right next door. In this massive compilation, we dive into true horror stories from Reddit, featuring encounters with obsessed stalkers, dangerous roommates, and strangers who refuse to take "no" for an answer.
From a pizza delivery driver who crossed every line to a family beach trip saved by a loyal dog named Parmesan, these stories remind us to always trust our instincts.
Featured stories in this collection:
The Beach Camping Nightmare: A family's isolated getaway turns terrifying when a man with a knife approaches their tent and their dog, Parmesan, becomes the hero.
The Mortuary Apartment: Living above a funeral home sounds creepy enough, but the real horror wasn't the dead bodies, it was what was happening inside the apartment.
