What are some of the best 'freaky scary stories' you've ever heard?

One great story is about a prank gone wrong. Some kids decided to pretend to be zombies and scare the neighbors. They put on makeup and everything. But when they jumped out, an old lady hit them with her umbrella thinking they were real zombies. It was hilarious yet a bit scary for the kids.

I think 'The Monkey's Paw' is a great scary story. A family gets a magical monkey's paw that can grant three wishes. But every wish comes with a horrible consequence. For example, they wish for money and their son dies at work, so they get a compensation. It's scary as it makes you think about the unexpected and often tragic results of getting what you think you want.

One of the best is about a little boy who tried to help his mother bake a cake. He added a whole box of salt instead of sugar. When they tasted the cake, his mother made a funny face and the boy said, 'I thought it needed more seasoning!'.

There was a story of a hiker who got lost in the forest. He found an abandoned cabin and decided to stay there for the night. In the middle of the night, he saw a strange light outside. When he went to check, he saw a deer with an albino coat, which is quite rare. It was such a freaky yet beautiful sight in the middle of that spooky situation.

A good shot scary story is the one about the abandoned asylum. People say that at night, you can hear the screams of the patients who were tortured there long ago. Once, a group of teenagers went there to explore. They saw a wheelchair moving on its own and a door slamming shut. They were so scared that they left immediately.

I once heard a long joke. There was a pirate with a steering wheel in his pants. When asked why, he said 'Arrr, it's driving me nuts!' This joke combines a funny image with a pun, which is really interesting.

One amazing funny story is about a dog who learned to open the refrigerator. Every time the owners left, the dog would open it and steal food. One day, they came home to find the dog sitting in a pile of food from the fridge, looking very guilty.

I heard a story where two best friends went to a costume party. One friend came as a mermaid and the other as a pirate. But the mermaid costume was so big and clumsy that every time the mermaid friend tried to walk, she'd fall over. The pirate friend had to keep 'rescuing' her all night. It was really funny.

Another story could be about a man who collected pins from all over the world. Each pin represented a different place he had visited and an experience he had there. His collection of pins was like a storybook of his life adventures. He could tell amazing tales about the cultures, the people and the events associated with each pin. It was really fascinating to listen to his stories.

There's a story from a zoo. A zookeeper was cleaning the monkey enclosure. One monkey stole his hat and then used it as a toilet. When the zookeeper realized, his expression was priceless. It was gross because, well, it was a hat - turned - toilet, but it was also quite humorous.
