I love anything to do with creepiness and I know there have been a few threads about the creepiest things that have happened, but I want to know what are the creepiest, scariest thing you've read.

I always remember when I was in year 6 I read a book called 'In a dark dark room' and there was one story about a girl with a green ribbon around her neck and she meets someone called Alfred. They get married and she never takes the ribbon off her neck and never tells Alfred why, until they're both old and she tells Alfred to untie the ribbon and her head fell off.
That story used to freak me out, but I constantly read it whenever I could and I always think of about it and still remember how I felt when I first read it.

I was also reading short scary stories not so long ago and this one freaked me out...

“I begin tucking him into bed and he tells me, “Daddy, check for monsters under my bed.” I look underneath for his amusement and see him, another him, under the bed, staring back at me quivering and whispering, “Daddy, there’s somebody on my bed.””

Anyone else?.....

The creepypasta Abandoned by Disney is quite good until the ending, which seems rushed.

Wild Swans for me too.

There was a twitter feed of a man who thought he had a presence in his flat, he posted pics of his cats acting strange etc does anyone remember?

One thing that always creeps me out as DH sometimes works late and doesn't come home til I'm asleep, so often wake up to him suddenly being next to me is a video on a you tube channel by FEWDIO called 'bedfellows'. It's an old one but one that insists on playing on my mind when I have to go to bed alone

I love this creepypasta one:

If I remember correctly, there are 6 parts.
