From silhouettes in the dark to foresight of the future.
There is a new interesting one on Reddit thread. In it, users talk about unusual incidents in life, which they could not find a rational explanation for. We chose several popular stories.
1. " When I was a teenager I had a little strange hobby - I loved reading obituaries in the local newspaper. Once I saw a familiar name - it was a family friend. His full name with patronymic and surname was indicated in the obituary. I didn’t tell my parents, because it’s obvious that they already know.
And so it was: a couple of days later, my mother said that this man had died. I replied that I already knew, because I read the obituary. To which she objected that he had died last night in his sleep. I found a newspaper, but the obituary I needed was not there. When the real obituary came out, only the first and last name were indicated. It happened more than 40 years ago, but I still think about it ", - The-Old-American
2. “My friend and I played tennis on a court near my house. It was usually lit until 11pm, but that day the lights were somehow turned off at a strange time - 10:43 or something like that. It was strange, but we packed our things and went to the car, which was parked nearby. We are already sitting down when a friend's mom's car pulls up and asks where he was, and why when she called, someone was laughing into the phone in an unfamiliar voice.
He realized that he had no telephone with him, and asked his mother to call again to find him. The screen lit up in the middle of the court - right under the net, although we left things in a completely different place. There was only one missed call, which was just made, although there were 3 calls on my mother's phone in the call history. I still did not understand what happened to the phone, these calls and the lighting on the court ", - drgrantschmidt
3. “I don’t know if it’s supernatural or not, but I still cannot explain it. I was in the kitchen and waited for the child to return from school. I saw the school bus from which he got off, but did not go home immediately, but hid under the window - probably to jump out and scare me when I approached him.
Instead, I went outside - but there was no one under the window. Walked around the house, shouting his name, began to panic. It probably lasted 90 seconds, but it felt like a lot more time. And then a bus stopped near the house and the child got out of it ", - LookForTheWhiteLight
4. “I woke up in the middle of the night and saw the dark silhouette of a child standing in front of me on the other side of the room. I turned on the light and it disappeared, turned it off - it reappeared. She turned on the light again and made sure there was nothing in the room that could create such a specific shadow. As a result, that night and the next several I slept with light ", - Ishouldprobbeasleep
5. “Many years ago my father wanted to fly to California - he wanted to do it for a long time and had been planning the trip for several months. The day before, I said goodbye to him and wished him a good journey. But on the day of the trip, he called me and said that at the last moment he decided not to fly, but refused to explain why.
That evening I was sitting with a girl. The news began on TV, and it was announced that the plane on which the father was to fly collided with another plane during a stopover in Los Angeles, a quarter of the passengers were killed.
Only a few months later, he admitted that the night before that flight, he had a dream about dying in a plane crash - so vivid that he was afraid to fly. At the same time, my father is a veteran of the Vietnam War, I don’t know how realistic the dream had to be to make him give up his dream trip ”, - SoloHarveyBirdman
6. “I live in one city, my brother in another, at a distance of about a thousand kilometers. He visits occasionally, but not often - usually once every couple of years. And then a few years ago I fell asleep on the sofa in the living room, when I suddenly wake up and see that my brother is sitting next to me. I am surprised, but glad to be surprised. Suddenly I hear the doorbell ring, I understand that it was a dream, and I wake up already for real. I open the door - and my brother really stands on the threshold ”, - DelJaralla818
7. “I worked as a night guard in a small office in a sanitary facility. The building had only one entrance, so you had to go through my security post to get in and out. An employee appears and says that he needs to check something and take things. I check his pass, turn on the lights for him on the way to the right office, and go back to my business.
A few hours later my shift comes to an end, and that guy never came back. I go around the whole building, but I can't find it anywhere. It is not in the places where I turned on the light, nowhere else are the bulbs on. I return to the post - suddenly we missed each other and he was just trying to leave - but no one was there. I make a second round, the result is the same. Then I decide to check the cameras, but I don't see him on any, except for the moment when he stands at my post. Then he turns into the corridor and does not appear on the next camera. I register this incident, then the next shift just comes and I get out of there.
The next day my boss calls me and says that the employee has been on vacation in another state for several days and will not return for several more days. No one was able to provide any explanations - including the guy himself when he returned from vacation ", - DuneManta
As a rule, even the strangest situations have a rational explanation: we dream and see things that bother us, and sometimes our own consciousness builds trapsthat we don't notice.
