I heard about a person who applied for a data entry job. The company promised flexible hours and decent pay. However, when he started, he realized that the data they wanted him to enter was all false information for some illegal reporting. He was horrified and didn't want to be part of any illegal activity. So, he immediately cut ties with the 'company' and reported them to the relevant authorities.
Yes. A woman saw an ad for a nanny job. It seemed great - good pay, nice family. She went for the interview and was hired on the spot. But when she showed up for work, the family had a completely different set of expectations. They wanted her to do all kinds of household chores that were not mentioned in the job description. And they were really strict and mean about it. She left after a few days because it was such a bad situation.
Once upon a time, there was a so - called haunted house. People said that at midnight, a ghostly figure would appear in the attic window. But it turned out that it was just an old curtain that got caught by the wind and looked like a figure. A neighbor kid had put up the story to make the house seem spooky.
One horror story is when people apply for a job that seems legitimate but turns out to be a pyramid scheme. They are promised high pay but end up having to recruit others to make any money. Another is when the job description is completely different from what the actual work is. For example, it was advertised as an office job but was really door - to - door sales. And there are cases where the so - called employer takes personal information during the application process and uses it for malicious purposes.
Sure. There was a person who took Ambien and woke up to find that they had written strange and disturbing messages all over their walls. They had no memory of doing it at all. It was really creepy as it was like some unknown force had taken over them while they were under the influence of the drug.
Sure. There was a Pegasister who attended a Pegasus - themed convention. She was really excited to meet other fans and see all the cool stuff. But she accidentally bumped into a very rude group of so - called 'hardcore' Pegasisters. They started yelling at her and making her feel like she didn't belong there just because she was new to the fandom and didn't know all the 'inside' rules. It was a horrible experience for her.
A man was an alcoholic and got into a bar fight one night while heavily drunk. He seriously injured another person. As a result, he was arrested and sent to jail. In jail, he went through withdrawal symptoms without proper medical help, which was extremely painful. His life took a turn for the worse, and when he got out, he had a criminal record that made it difficult for him to find a job and reintegrate into society.
Sure. There was a situation where a community was trying to get a local park renovated. The government department in charge kept delaying the project for years. Every time the community representatives asked for an update, they were given vague excuses. Eventually, the park remained in a state of disrepair, and the funds that were supposed to be used for the renovation seemed to have disappeared without a trace.
One specific 'bronies horror story' could be about a brony who was overly obsessed with a particular My Little Pony character. He started to believe that the character was real and would send disturbing letters to the show's creators, asking them to make the character come to life in a very inappropriate and obsessive way.
A friend of mine had a Postmate horror story. He ordered some expensive electronics. When the package arrived, it was clear that the Postmate had opened it. Some parts were missing. My friend was furious. He had to go through a long process with Postmate's customer service to try to get compensation for the missing items. It was a real hassle and he lost trust in the service.
Sure. I once bought a really expensive silk shirt for a job interview. I was feeling great in it until I sat down on a bench at the bus stop. There was some wet paint there that I didn't notice. When I stood up, the back of my shirt was covered in bright blue paint. I had no time to go home and change, so I had to go to the interview looking like a mess. Needless to say, I didn't get the job.
There is a story from a small village. Every few years, when the cicadas came out, strange things seemed to happen. People reported hearing voices within the cicada's chorus. One old man said that the cicadas were a sign of impending doom. One year, during a particularly bad cicada emergence, a barn burned down. People blamed it on the 'curse' of the cicadas, which spread fear throughout the village.
