In her sleep, Abby would experience a series of peculiar nightmares featuring distorted singing voices, a grotesque operating theatre, and a bizarre tour around an old mansion. However, one thing remained constant throughout her dreams, the presence of a old man's voice whispering into her ear.

In today's episode, we share a story from a man who was experienced a creepy encounter while working overtime. When it around 1am, he finally left work and headed to the basement of his office to find his car. However, when he stopped at his car door, he suddenly felt a strong sense of unease in the air, as if someone was watching him, even though the entire carpark was empty at this time. Trusting his senses, he headed back to the lift lobby instead, which was when he caught, out of the corner of his eye, a grey-faced creature staring at him from underneath his car.
