2 Spooky

[beneathmoonlight]

Hello everyone! I have a strange topic I’d like to discuss.

First of all, what kind of things scare you the most? And do you believe in the supernatural?

I’m looking for scary stories or pictures, or maybe even gifs with proper warnings on them. I know I’m going to end up scaring myself, but I’ve always been oddly fascinated with ghosts and such. Paranormal things, I guess you could say.

I’d love to hear your opinions or see any content you have to share!

Sisters are pretty scary. As for the supernatural... it's hard not to believe. I don't know if this is the sort of stuff you're looking for, but this is my favorite scary story. Warning for jump scares, I guess.



( jumpscare warning... also utilizes sound, if you have that on )

[beneathmoonlight]

THAT IS TERRIFYING

[compendiem]

Did you enjoy the story?

[hauhra]

The sorts of things that scare me the most don't have anything to do with the supernatural... for someone who was a ghost in their previous life to be scared of ghosts, that would make my existence even more complicated than it already is.

Even before those memories came back to me, however, and probably not by coincidence... ghost stories have always fascinated me.

For instance, have you heard the story of the ghost of Pharaohs Akhenaten and Khufu of Egypt?

[beneathmoonlight]

You were a ghost? I can’t even imagine...

I haven’t. I’d love to hear it though.

1/2

I was... but I won't get into that story just yet. I think I'll start with the story of Pharaoh Akhenaten.

It all began when Pharaoh Akhenaten did away with the traditional Egyptian gods, replacing them instead with a single god named Aten, who represented the sun. Exactly why he did this, no one alive today knows; perhaps he had thought the priests had grown too powerful, or perhaps he wanted to make a name for himself, having risen to power entirely by accident. However, regardless of his reasons for ousting the old gods, it's said that they were angered by their exile from Egypt, and cursed him to wander the Farafra Desert for all eternity as punishment. At least, that's what the nomads of that region would have you believe...

[hauhra]

My next story is that of Pharaoh Khufu. This one takes place in the much more famous region of Giza, where the Great Pyramid resides. According to legend, it is from this pyramid that Khufu emerges at midnight to wander the area's streets, telling its inhabitants to leave immediately. However, if the legend is true, then he's probably either pretty harmless or very patient, as people have been living in that part of Egypt for thousands of years since his passing...

Oh, but wait! There's still one more story... this time in the Valley of the Kings, and with what seems to be a much more sinister spirit. It's the last one, but probably the spookiest... it would have been a shame to leave out the tale of an Egyptian pharaoh who rides a fiery chariot drawn by black horses, don't you think?

[ and that's a wrap!

he has a lot of feelings about ghosts, okay. ]

[floret]

Vengeful or malevolent spirits/forces are the scariest to me. The kind where there's nothing you can do to placate or reason with them.

And... I do.
I think we've all experienced enough bizarre phenomena firsthand by now that it would be harder not to believe...
Plus, it seems like I used to be sort of a ghost?
Or, I lived in the afterlife, at least.
"Lived."

[beneathmoonlight]

Like poltergeists? Yeah, those are super scary. So is the thought of being possessed.

You mean you inhabited some kind of spirit world? That’s

Cool and terrifying at the same time

[floret]

That would be really scary!!
Though to me poltergeists seem like they'd just be annoying. Always messing with your stuff and making noise. It's like, what if you're trying to sleep?

I'm not sure it was either! Based on what I've remembered so far, it seems like it was just sort of... normal? Like, people just kind of walking around normally and looking more or less like living humans... there wasn't, like, a vortex of souls or eerie glowing apparitions...

[akatatai]

Anything in horror movies... I'm a wimp
But I think jumpscares and sudden loud noises are the worst of all
Why would you ever want to scare yourself?!?!

[beneathmoonlight]

Jump scares are, well, scary.

But they also feel cheap. I don’t like too many in scary movies.

Um

I’m trying to get braver

[akatatai]

Even if they're cheap, they always work
But you're way braver than I am already
I'd rather do just about anything than watch a horror movie of my own will

[livingimpaired]

I won't get into what scares me, because it isn't anything that can kill or curse me. Indeed, such a thing doesn't bother me. But I do believe in the supernatural.

Still, looking to be scared?
I'll do my best, then.

[beneathmoonlight]

Anything you share is bound to be terrifying, Shigaraki-san.

[ohrlyeh]

crowds, mostly

and i have many, including my own stories. do you have a preference towards types of ghosts/scary stories

[beneathmoonlight]

Crowds can be really intimidating

Um

Ghosts are good

Or like

Demons

[ascatic]

Something that scares me the most...

Right now? A crane.

[beneathmoonlight]

Why a crane?

[destiny_key]

sorey does ghost hunts sometimes
i mean
if youd be interested in that lol

theyre really fun!!!
i go sometimes
you should ask him when the next one is

[beneathmoonlight]

Ghost hunts?

Have you seen anything on one?

[liberal_arts]

I guess since I'm technically a youkai, I've got not much choice but to believe in the supernatural.

[beneathmoonlight]

A youkai?

It’s odd...

You’re not the first one I’ve met.

[maskreant]

[ HOW CAN HE NOT SEND HIS FAVORITE VIDEO!!

[beneathmoonlight]
