I know of a Black Friday horror story where a group of teenagers were causing chaos in a store. They were running around, knocking over displays and scaring other shoppers. One elderly shopper was so frightened that she had a heart attack. In another instance, a customer's phone was snatched from her hand while she was using it to check for better deals online. And a store was so overcrowded that people were fainting from the lack of air and the intense heat.
A friend of mine lived in a basement apartment. Black mold grew on the ceiling. It was so bad that it started dripping black liquid. My friend got really sick with a cough that wouldn't go away. She had to move out quickly and lost a lot of money on the rent deposit.
One horror story is the stampedes that sometimes occur. People are so eager to get into stores for the best deals that they push and shove. I heard of a case where an elderly person got knocked down and injured in the chaos outside a big - box store.
I know of a situation where a group of shoppers lined up outside a store hours before it opened on Black Friday. But when the doors finally opened, the security measures failed. Thieves took advantage of the chaos and stole from people's bags and pockets while everyone was focused on getting inside the store. It was a nightmare for those who had their belongings stolen and a really bad start to their Black Friday shopping.
There's a story about a woman who had too much to drink at a friend's house in the countryside. She decided to go for a walk to clear her head. But she ended up in a field with a big old oak tree. Under the tree, she saw a figure that looked like a ghostly apparition. She ran back to the house as fast as she could, but she felt like something was chasing her all the way. When she got back, she found out that the area was known for some old superstitions and spooky sightings.
There's a story about a religious artifact that brought doom. A small village discovered an ancient religious idol. After it was brought into the village, people started having nightmares. The children were the first to be affected, seeing apparitions of a dark figure. As time passed, the adults also fell ill, and the crops failed. The villagers believed it was a curse from the idol because it was from a long - forgotten and perhaps malevolent religious sect.
A group of fishermen were on a riverbank when a bear showed up. It seemed interested in their catch. As they tried to shoo it away, it attacked one of them. The man was bitten on his arm and dragged a short distance. His friends had to fight off the bear with oars and fishing rods. It was a chaotic and scary situation.
Well, there's this one where a man put a fake spider the size of a dinner plate on his wife's pillow. His wife has a huge fear of spiders. When she saw it, she let out a blood - curdling scream. She was so shaken that she couldn't sleep in their bedroom for days. The man felt really bad afterwards but it was a very effective horror prank.
One time, a blender's cord started to spark while it was running. It was really terrifying as it could have led to an electrical fire. The person using it quickly unplugged it, but it was a close call. This might have been because of a frayed wire inside the cord that wasn't noticed before. Blenders need to be checked regularly for such safety hazards.
A girl rented an apartment. Every time she took a shower, she felt cold hands touch her. She thought she was imagining it at first. But it happened so often that she couldn't ignore it. She finally told her landlord, who just brushed it off. She was so terrified that she broke the lease and left.
