My friend and I were sleeping in my parent’s room one night when she was over and it was probably about 3 am. Suddenly we hear a sound like a fart from the corner of the room, and distinctly from this one corner. So I ask my friend if she farted, and of course she says no as it clearly came from that corner. Thinking maybe it’s my dogs as they sometimes sleep in my parent’s room, I go and check it out but realize they’re’ not in the room with us. Okay, so that’s weird I thought, and my friend also said she heard a distinct fart too so we assumed that maybe we both misheard. Then all of a a sudden an unknown caller starts ringing my phone and I don’t answer because at this point I’m freaked the fuck out. After I decline the call I receive a message from an unknown caller with the same area code as the caller who had just called me. The text message is all in Spanish and me and my friend decide to paste the text into Google Translate where it proceeds to say “Did you hear that fart?”
Needless to say we never slept in my parent’s room again, and we’re convinced that we have a Spanish farting ghost in our presence.

Mine’s pretty minor, I was awake one summer night with my window wide open to try to cool my room, and I heard this gigantic droning sound appear out of nowhere and remained for a few minutes. Sounded like it was coming from just outside my window above the road.
It was one of the loudest sounds I’ve ever heard, didn’t sound like a helicopter, there wasn’t that “chop” of blades in the air, and once it had stayed for a few minutes, it faded away, like it was going up into the air.
Never heard anything like it since.

Running through a large field in the middle of a nice neighbourhood on Halloween night. Got gassed sprinting halfway and reached out to hold on to a tiny tree, felt what I can only describe as claws like bugles on your finger tips wrap around my hand. Noped the fk out and ran back to my group of friends.
There were no leaves because it was fall so I still have no clue what it was.

My dorm hall had some weird shit happen, but one of the weirdest was that I went to the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth. The sink was right next to the entrance and as I washed my face, I saw and heard the door open and noticed a figure move to the end of the stalls. I figured a girl had just come in to use the bathroom. I dry off my face and begin brushing my teeth but realized I didn’t hear anyone else. I checked each stall and no one was in there. I quickly grabbed my stuff and noped out.

I was in my final year at uni, and I worked as a TA for a language prof (this meant teaching one hour sessions multiple times a week). I basically lived in the (known to be haunted) Humanities building. One Tuesday after my final class and before my first lesson of the evening, I was in the staff room heating up my shitty microwave dinner. A woman I had never seen before came in, obligatory “ope lemme just scooch past ya… and check the time on the coffee machine.”
Now I found it odd that this university employee came here just to check the time on the coffee machine, you don’t have a phone/ computer/ watch/ clock?? But who am I and my Lean Cuisine to judge? She looks at the time on the coffee machine and says:
“That can’t be right. What time is it?”
Me: uhhh it’s 5:37
Her: hmm 5 minutes fast. Ok.
With that she left and although a bit odd, I didn’t dwell on the interaction. That is… until one week later, Tuesday evening, I was again heating up my food when she enters, obligatory OPE lemme just scooch past ya and check the time.
“That can’t be right. What time is it?”
I look at my phone. It is exactly 5:37. I tell her and once again she says “hmmm 5 minutes fast. Ok” and leaves.
I am deeply unsettled. The microwave dings. I take my lean cuisine and quickly head upstairs.
Never saw that woman again.
