Been a few that have stuck with me...
There was a particulary creepy post on one the scary threads about a couple who were visiting family up north and the weather has got really bad with deep snow and blizzards so they had ended up staying at a lodge B&B type place with their room being a separate building to the rest of the house.
I can’t remember the exact details but it was something along the lines of the the DH had disappeared in the middle of the night and when the DW had found him he was out of it and in complete shock after whitnessing/been subject to something terrible.
The main occupants had brought the terrified couple into the house and the DH was taken into another room where the fire was and given whiskey to stop the shock and only he was given a vague explanation to what had happened. The rest is quite hazy (it was a while back I read it) but the DH wouldn’t tell the DW what had happened to him as he wanted to protect her and couldn’t bear to relive it!!
The frustrating part was the op said they had kept in touch with lodge owners and became friends and they had agreed next time the OP and her DH visited to share and explain exactly what had happened but I have never read or seen any updates/posts from her again...
I think about it all the time though so if you are about OP I’d be really intrigued to know what the explanation was!!
The other one that has stayed with me was years back and I’m not even sure if it was Mumsnet or the other parenting forum beginning with the letter M that we shall not mention!!
It was a lengthy post started by a mum who’s baby had fallen of the bed and suffered a nasty injury which SS and the hospital did not think matched what had happened to her (can’t remember the exact injury but it was either the baby’s lip or nose has been separated so badly that it was in two parts...
The baby had been removed and the thread was mostly the process the parents were going through to prove their innocence and get the baby back.
It was so confusing because as much as I felt for her, no one could explain how the baby had got the injury.
I remember being terrified that something could happen to you your child accidentally (as they often do) and there was a chance that you wouldn’t be believed but equally this lady could be abusing her poor child.
Loads of people were invested in it though from both sides and she had quite high up professionals getting involved from the parenting forum.
The post was removed in the end as I think SS’s and the police didn’t deem it appropriate (too right as well) as it still was an open investigation but I often think about her and if she got her poor baby back.
