Keep the lights on while you watch these scary stories unfold. Everyone loves a good scare — a chilling shiver down their spine, but it's even more thrilling when the frights come from scary videos that are true. There are a whole lot of true accounts of the sinister and the paranormal captured on tape out there, and in this list I’ve analyzed just some of the best. Here are 15 scary videos filmed by accident! And the way the entries in this list are, they will redefine the word "creepy" in a whole new, eerie, and ominous way.
Ready to be freaked out of your wits? You are at the right place! But before you hit play, be warned that after watching these creepy videos, you won't get to sleep in peace for weeks. Your own home sweet home is going to feel like a hair-raising haunted house when you're done watching this countdown to the end. Every one of us has spent our fair share of time scrolling through YouTube's recommendations. As it happens, the platform is also a humongous hub for some of the most spine-chilling scary videos to have ever been uploaded on the internet.
But there's a catch. Most of the scary videos you will find on YouTube are just cheap attempts to trick you into a silly jump scare. They are no creepier than someone wearing a sloppily draped bedsheet, screaming "boo" as you walk past them around a corner. In short, most creepy videos on YouTube merely have meaningless frights to offer. But in this list of top 15 scary videos, I've made sure to analyze only the entries that will simply chill you to the bone. These creepy videos will wreak havoc on your psyche, make your heart race, and make you feel like your home is a hotbed for paranormal activity. What's more horrifying, is that the entries in this list of creepy videos have an eerily strange vibe. When something scary defies any logical explanation science has to offer, it instantly becomes a whole lot scarier — and that's what the videos in this creepy countdown are all about.
Familiar with the feeling you get while sleeping at night when your foot dangles slightly off the edge of your mattress and you feel like the monster under the bed will pull you into the depths of some other scary dimension? You probably are. Let me caution you that after watching this list of creepy videos to the end, you'll be left with nothing but the same feeling multiplied by a couple thousand. Proceed at your own peril.
Done watching? That's great!

Coming up in this video. Have you ever been filming but accidentally
caught something more than you intended to? Well it’s more common than you think. These
are the 15 scary videos filmed by accident. 15. Headless Man You’ve probably heard of the
Headless Horseman of Sleepy Hollow. But this one is haunting South Africa.
Captured on a security camera, this headless waitstaff is in a hurry. He appears to be carrying a
pizza to one of the guests. Imagine opening your door to this.
I think I’d r
ather go to bed hungry. 14. Trippin’ Something invisible is
tripping up this poor child. A home security camera captured
this scary video which is trending in the Vietnamese-speaking YouTube community.
The footage shows two young girls racing around the living room as their parents watch TV.
Watch the child in white. Her right foot seems to be
taken right out from under her, and she is thrown forward by something unseen.
Even stranger, a moment before the incident, the girl in red appears to
see
something in the exact same spot. Watch her pause. To me, it looks like these girls have an invisible friend…and a malicious one at that.
What do you think is happening here? 13. Cave Ghost While being guided through a cave
system in the mountains of Austria, this group of tourists got
more than they bargained for. In this cave room, they spotted
something kind of creepy. Do you see it? It looks like a grotesque
face, but it’s obviously just pareidolia. But it’s what they see crawling u
p the wall later that’s got them really scared. While the guy seems to think this is a ghost,
I’ve never heard of mountain-climbing spirits. Considering the distortion of the
camera and the light in the cave, it looks to me like it could be an
animal. Maybe a bat or a lizard. Although some in the comments agree,
others suggest it’s a skinwalker. What do you think it is? 12. Possession Is this person possessed? Although the TikToker doesn’t explain the
context of this clip, it certainly appe
ars so. A person is being held down by a dozen
people, while fighting the restraint. They try to straighten the possessed
person’s legs, but he fights against it. Do you believe in demonic possession? Or is there some other reasonable
explanation for such incidents? I’m prone to believing, but without a closer look,
this particular incident could go either way. 11. Ghost Through The Door A ghost girl was captured on
camera in this scary video. While documenting an entity that’s been hauntin
g
his home, several mysterious things happened. The semitransparent figure crosses
the street and seems to enter the same doorway that the man later does.
I assume it’s a girl, because the figure looks like she’s wearing her hair in a ponytail.
Where is this lost child going? I assume she must have something to communicate
to the residents of this home…maybe a warning. 10. Evil Lies Here Taking a stroll through the forest? Then,
I wouldn’t recommend entering into just any old abandoned house
.
Evil might reside there. When this man entered, he found it. Who was that? The man only caught a glimpse of the
home’s resident before fleeing the scene. It looks like a man, but the
face seems too expressionless. I think he could be wearing a mask. But why would one wear a mask in his own home? What do you think? 9. Ghost in Rivington This one looks like a legit horror movie. While out riding and filming, this daredevil
captured a ghost in the background on camera. She didn’t see anyone at
the time.
Let’s watch. The black-and-white tone and foggy environs
definitely breathe death into the clip. But the figure there is undeniable.
If it’s not a spirit figure, what is it? I can’t imagine why someone would
be skulking about in the fog in the middle of nowhere. That’s why
I’m leaning toward ghost on this one. 8. Sarasota Light When you “shed some light” on something, you’re supposed to find the truth.
But this light casts doubt. A mysterious light appeared over
Sarasota, on Flori
da’s west coast. Any idea what it is? When I first saw this clip, it kind of looked
like a bat signal to me. I wondered what superhero this shape could be calling up?
I dug a little deeper into this story, and on the same day, the local news reported that
light appeared in the sky after a SpaceX launch. Pop-up: Called a “space jellyfish,” this effect
in the sky occurs when a rocket’s exhaust produces a smoke plume at a certain altitude and at a
certain time of day – specifically, dawn or dus
k. It’s during this time that the gas trails
are eliminated like the tentacles and bell of a jellyfish.
While it may not be a bat signal, it’s certainly
a mysterious-looking effect. 7. Ball of Light This YouTuber writes that she
noticed someone crossing the road. But what happened when they got to the other side? Watch the road carefully after the bright
lights of the truck leave the scene. You can see a faint figure starting to cross. After crossing, a ball of light appears
where the figur
e should be, before vanishing. The YouTuber screen-recorded
this live during Hurricane Laura. Did the figure disappear into a ball of light? Some in the comments say it’s a glitch, others think the figure turned a flashlight
on and off and descended down the hill. Still, others are more focused on the UFO that
they see flying overhead at nearly the same time. Are these two mysterious events a coincidence? I think there might be something
truly strange going on here. Perhaps an alien being be
amed to earth. 6. Abandoned House When you face your fears,
they don’t often disappoint. Joe and Chris are exploring this abandoned
home when it’s clear that they’re not alone. Though something or someone keeps making
noise, they can’t find the source. And it seems to be following them. When they open the door, they find nothing there. They even capture unexplained footsteps
that they don’t seem to hear in the moment. 4. Hearing Voices When you start hearing voices
on your home security cam
era, there’s usually one of two explanations:
your cameras have been hacked or someone’s in your home.
Which one is this? The OP notes that they’re Bulgarian,
and the first whisper can be understood as the phrase, “You will die.”
The OP checked the footage after receiving a notification of movement from cameras he’d
installed at his uncle’s house. This is on the second floor of the house which has a separate
entrance than the main floor. Nobody lives there. There’s also a third explanation,
as
some in the comments have suggested. This could be a disembodied voice.
So, what do you think: Is this a hacker? A squatter?
Or a disembodied voice? I don’t know which to believe, but
the disembodied voice of a ghost honestly seems the least sinister of the three. 3. Door Opener Submitted to the r/ChillsNarrator subreddit by
Crims021. This Redditor wrote “Check this out. So one of my employees found this emergency door wide
open, so when I reviewed it. The following happen. Also if you h
ave a good eye, you can clearly
see things happening before what happens.”. Well let’s watch their submission
and see what they’re talking about. There was certainly some debate about this video
in the comments. Bottleyelis wrote “I definitely saw what appeared to be a shadow "open" the
door. Creeeepy”, while chrisr3240 wrote “I have two particularly good eyes and neither saw
what happened before what happened.” to which the uploader responded saying “So there [is] a reason
why I didn't me
ntion it. I don't want to impose the viewer with what I see so. Once I see someone
here see what I see I'll tell you. Til then, well sit tight.”. Which side are you on here? Do
you see what he sees? Let me know in the comments. 2. Hospital Ghost While alone in this hospital room, a
chill was sent up this dude’s spine. Listen closely. Where is the whistling coming from? Many in the comments note that hospitals are
logically one of the most common sites of paranormal activity, as many perish i
nside one.
But why would this ghost be whistling at them? I have a theory: he couldn’t get their attention
before his death until it was too late. So, now, he’s going to
taunt them in the afterlife. I’ve got a challenge for you, since you’ve made
it this far, why not like this video and hit subscribe in the next 5 seconds, because
I upload 4 new scary videos every week. If you’re curious about what I look like
in real life, then go to my Instagram @dylan_is_chillin_yt and tap

button to find out. 1. Manifestation While exploring an abandoned structure, this
paranormal team encountered a manifestation. But before appearing, the spirit made some noise. Then this happened. The spirit triggers their devices, not once… But twice. It also wants to isolate
the cameraman from his crew. And it seems to be speaking to them. It won’t let up. Through its terrorizing, it
practically chases them from the place. Was all of this activity one spirit’s doing? I think there must be a
family of spirits resides here.

I need to stop watching these because all of a sudden I’m trying to sleep at night then I’ll think of chills videos and Thats when I got to turn on the lights for 10 minutes
Gotta give props to the headless guy. Still doing his job and not tripping. He's a great employee.
If you can hear Chills voice for 20 minutes then you’re an absolute legend
The scariest part of this video is how the narrator is clearly a demon trying to speak like a normal human lol
The kid in 14 possibly has her ankle and leg growing off. It happens when kids still can be flexible and they sit in unhealthy positions too long. It's a lack of muscles and coordination.
Chills: Why would anyone wear a mask in their own home? Michael Myers: ….bruh
That headless guy looks like a gentleman
It's funny how they're call investigators and they're the ones taunting the spirits but they get scared when the spirit answers them.
Chills has no boundaries on how crazy his content gets and he always makes our day or night even better huge respect to him keep it up 👻🔥
6:22 when u play Bloody Mary at a random house:
3:22 spiderman be like :
I'm guessing that guy wasn't head waiter...I thank you
Has anyone ever been sleep deprived to the point of hallucinating? That's the real nightmare fuel right there. I remember setting a chair up next to my door because I kept seeing a shadow outside my window at my door, on top of that I could litteraly hear and see my door knob turning, but everytime I opened the door, nothing. Of course this was in my youth, so I didn't completely understand what was happening to me.
No 15 I burst out laughing 🤣..poor dude..at least he delivered the pizza to the right door🍕 I hope the manager pays him because it wouldn't be fair to work for free💸
0:26 dang this guy has so much robux
that first clip is absolutely hilarious "HR!"
5:45 💔💔
Number 15 burger King.....
#10 you can see the persons hands in each side of their face. Probably holding up a mask, like Chills suggested they were wearing. Great vids overall Chills! Thanks for the work!
