Unidentified Creatures DISCOVERED In Abandoned Buildings

as with any adventure there are risks to exploring abandoned places some you might expect like the weak floors unstable ceilings and hazardous materials but if some encounters shared online and in the news are to be believed there are other dangers as well some of which go far beyond logical reasoning from lurching shadow figures in an old hospital basement to faceless humanoids lurking in deserted tunnels here some terrifying unidentified life forms encountered in abandoned places [Music] box o

f horror when reddit user hela aaron went on vacation to italy the last thing he expected was to return home with a thoroughly creepy experience under his belt but that's precisely what happened he and his cousin had been backpacking along the idyllic italian riviera coastline when other backpackers told them of a secret beach hidden between the neighboring villages of vernazza and cornelia the fellows eagerly went in search for it and after scrambling down an overgrown hillside trail which basi

cally left them crawling through spiky shrubs they were delighted to finally reach the beautiful secret beach after spending the rest of the day lounging in the sun the dark of night eventually began to creep in when the time came to find their way back however aaron and his cousin were unable to relocate the safe path up the overgrown trail luckily aaron remembered seeing a tunnel down by the beach it was hardly a luxurious alternative given that it was pitch black damp and uninviting but the b

oys decided to take their chances in the very least they thought the tunnel could lead to the next town assuming it didn't reach a dead end as the pair entered the tunnel aaron's cousin briefly shown his flashlight just to get an idea of the tunnel's layout with the path looking clear and not wanting to waste the final one percent of battery left on the only phone with any charge they fumbled on in the dark after 20 minutes of careful walking the boys both stopped in their tracks there were shuf

fling noises ahead of them in the darkness aaron's cousin activated his phone's flashlight and as the tunnel did up the boys sighed in relief there was no one there but they did find themselves facing something seriously bizarre a big box-like structure roughly the size of a shipping container sat in the middle of the tunnel the very moment aaron and his cousin walked up to it for a closer look the last source of light finally ran out of battery they were plunged into an overwhelming darkness ye

t suddenly they heard footsteps only this time they knew exactly where they were coming from inside the box it sounded like bare feet were pacing unnaturally fast up and down the box's metal floor almost as if someone or something was agitatedly sprinting trying to find a way out horrified aaron and his cousin grabbed each other and took off running after what felt like forever they finally emerged from the tunnel where it opened up in the nearby village of cornelia just in time to catch the las

t train back to their hostel as for the box of horror aaron and his cousin both tried to be logical by chalking it up to a homeless person trying to scare them since they couldn't see anything they had no way of knowing whether the box was open on the other side or if there were any litter or clothes strewn around to signal someone was living there a homeless person does sound like the most plausible explanation but those cousins would always look back and wonder what kind of person would live r

ight in the middle of a deep tunnel in complete darkness one thing's for sure they wouldn't be going back to ask something in the water in the early 2000s a redditor whose account has now been deleted let's call him jim like to spend his afternoons as a middle schooler exploring with his two best friends their favorite spot an abandoned hospital close to where they lived was a treasure trove for exploration but one visit ensured they'd never return although the hospital's doors were all locked j

im and co regularly snuck their way in through a broken window this makeshift entrance was how they began one of their expeditions to the hospital in which jim and his friends decided to explore the expansive basement the one place they'd never gone before the only reason they hadn't delved into those eerily enticing depths previously was the four feet deep murky waters that had flooded it some time ago on this occasion however they were happy to take a dip stagnant waterborne diseases be damned

flashlights in hand jim and his friends walked down the stairs into the basement each step creaking under their feet they stopped on the bottom few steps to scan the area but aside from some shelves and something that looked like a generator they couldn't really see much immediately jim got the feeling that something wasn't right regardless one of his friends put their foot on a submerged step disturbing the eerily still water and the rest followed their jeans becoming soaked as they delved int

o the liquid then as the water reached up to their waists jim and his friends heard a huge splash from somewhere in the darkness beyond and not just any splash it sounded like something big had plunged into the water the boys bolted back up the stairs jim couldn't see anything in the dark but he distinctly heard something pursuing ever closer from down the dark basement hallway they ran all the way to the second floor where their old reliable broken window led out to a parking lot roof they coul

d climb down to get to the ground jim and his friends waited outside for a while and when nothing happened they did what every horror movie teaches us not to do they went back in sitting at the top of the basement stairs once more they listened for any signs of life silence one of the boys decided to throw his flashlight down the stairs in an attempt to scare whatever was down there the flashlight splashed into the water and died still nothing happened so emboldened by youthful curiosity or just

stupidity jim and his friends decided to charge down the stairs they leapt into the water making a ton of noise but they fell silent the moment jim shone his flashlight down the pitch-black basement hallway ahead of them there at the end of the hallway loomed a large silhouette that looked like two large barrels strapped together floating on the water only the shape wasn't exactly floating it appeared to be pulling itself along with a shambling lurching movement suddenly with another huge splas

h the barrel-like shapes split in two and the two figures doubled the speed of their approach whatever the things were they were clearly alive and it was more than enough to convince jim and his friends to bolt out of there they never set foot in that hospital again so what did these young adventurers encounter in the darkness well aside from the biological hazards of wading in stagnant water it's possible depending on where jim and his friends lived that they were in the presence of water-dwell

ing barrel-sized alligators that had somehow moved into the flooded basement perhaps the basement connected with the sewers somewhere or maybe it was something else entirely either way i doubt jim and his friends were the last explorers to go down there let's just hope they weren't the only ones who lived to tell the tale barn dweller in may 1951 a gang of four children eight-year-old tony seven-year-old jill and ten-year-olds alan and george set out to explore an old deserted barn in roby a vil

lage in northern england george had heard stories about the place from older kids like how the barn had supposedly been used as an air raid shelter in the second world war with the inevitable ghost stories its historic wartime usage evoked the four children were intrigued so led by george the kids piled inside the barn but the windows were all boarded shut keeping most of the light from getting in that's when george had a bright idea he took a box of matches from his pocket and looked around for

things to make a fire with he found a splintered drawer some newspapers and dry leaves and the children all huddled together as he set the pile of flame the moment the barn lit up they noticed some peculiar graffiti on the wall incredibly detailed charcoal sketches of people in 1940s clothing covered every inch of wall space but it wasn't the impressive detail that intrigued the children among the portraits they saw another drawing depicting a terrifying creature with huge round eyes pointed ea

rs a massive mouth ringed with teeth and long spindly limbs the sketch on the barn wall also came with a disturbing message in big bold letters it read keep out jill didn't like this one bit and wanted to leave but the boys only teased her telling her the creature in the sketch was the bogeyman and loved to eat little girls but their joke soon ran its course when the children heard a moaning sound and out of a gaping hole in the walls a shadowy form clambered on all fours but by the children's a

ccounts this was no stray dog it was a grotesque creature resembling the one in the sketch only with an insect-like shell on its back and eyes like belly buttons living breathing and preparing to lunge at them when the creature leapt forward the children screamed and fled the barn in a blind panic they ran to jill's house where they told their parents everything as sensible adults her parents didn't believe a word but they followed them back to the barn where aside from george's precarious fire

there wasn't a monster in sight most sources have since concluded that if anything at all the children most likely encountered a possibly rabid dog the creepy sketches seemingly having shaped their impression in a more horrific direction as for how the sketches could have gotten there it turned out the barn really did serve as an air raid shelter in world war ii when people used to hide out there an unknown artist liked to entertain people by drawing them on the walls perhaps the artist's audien

ce grew bored of his human sketches and he decided to up his game by drawing a fictitious monster instead or maybe just maybe there was more at play than mangy mutts and overactive children's imaginations that day in the old barn in 1951 either way it's a pretty creepy story right well if you enjoy weird facts and astounding stories why not take a moment to like this video and to subscribe to be amazed and don't forget to press the bell the sound keeps the monsters at bay sounds like more coming

right now the cabbage town monster in august 1978 a 51 year old man named ernest was looking for a lost kitten in cabbagetown toronto the kitten was from a litter he and his wife had been raising and being the mischievous one of the bunch it always found a way to escape the house according to newspapers of the day while searching the neighborhood after dark earnest stumbled upon a cave-like hole in the concrete of the street the perfect hiding spot for a wayward cat ernest crouched down and ent

ook off down a tunnel to the side shaking with fear ernest hurried straight home and told his wife barbara all about what happened despite how crazy he must have sounded she believed him given that according to her ernest was never one to scare easily unfortunately when ernest took reporters from the local newspaper to the cave which turned out to be a busted open sewer all they found were the remains of an unidentified animal but that didn't mean no one believed earnest some believers at the ti

comments below tunnel of bones in 2016 a redditor with the username 300 super mexicans was doing electrical work in an older district of the city of baltimore maryland in this part of the city many buildings are connected by tunnels underground and on this particular day the redditor let's call him super for short found himself fixing lights in one such tunnel under a building on east redwood street when his lunch break rolled around he decided to explore the expansive network of tunnels branch

ing off from the one he'd been working on after 20 minutes of walking around super heard his foreman call for him down one of the corridors he followed the voice into tunnels which grew increasingly cold and dark but his foreman was nowhere to be seen afraid of getting lost he considered turning around until he heard another call from deeper within super continued on eventually reaching a strange dark room the size of a basketball court with a 20-foot high ceiling the air was extremely chilly he

re and the ground was strangely sticky so much so that each step sounded like he was undoing a velcro strap but the strangest of all was the fact that animal skulls littered the floor seemingly arranged in a triangle of which one corner pointed to a large doglike skeleton in the center of the room already disturbed super suddenly began to smell smoke and his uneasiness turned to full-blown fear when he heard what sounded like an enormous dog running toward him from another pitch-black tunnel con

nected to the room with the sound of heavy paws and nails on concrete rapidly approaching super sprinted back the way he came but somehow became lost after what felt like an hour of solid running from his pursuer the redditor found a staircase with a big metal door at the end of it taking a chance he yanked it and to his utmost relief it swung open he darted through and pulled it shut behind him just as a hard thud banged against the metal door from the other side after that everything fell quie

t when he turned around he was surprised to see he'd re-emerged under the docks by the four seasons hotel over a mile away from where he had originally been working super immediately called his foreman to come pick him up telling him he'd gotten lost but keeping the rest of the story to himself from that day forward he refused to go into tunnels under the city again and i don't blame him any curiosity for what chased him and what put those skeletons there may be questions best left unanswered ab

andoned town resident in march 2021 22 year old redditor ki fuki shared a truly chilling real life tale on the subreddit true scary stories with an hour and a half drive from the clinic she was working at to her home in the countryside she was no stranger to driving in the darkness of night one gloomy evening however after a particularly long shift kifu ki found herself frustrated after a traffic accident further along the highway brought things to a total standstill the redditor took the first

exit off the highway aiming to get home as quickly as possible by any route necessary with the help of google maps kifu ki found herself on a route that led through a tiny run-down town in the woods that looked like it had been abandoned years ago there were no cars no lights only empty boarded up houses with weeds growing around them the road was so neglected she couldn't drive faster than 20 miles an hour and was slowly edging along when a loud thunk came from the roof of her car concerned tha

t a branch might have dented her ride kifu ki pulled over and opened the door to inspect the damage stepping out she was puzzled to find there was nothing on the roof not even a scratch with nothing in the road either kifu ki decided it must have been a large bird or something and climbed back in her car at that moment an ear-piercing scream reverberated from somewhere out in the darkness terrified kifu ki locked the door and pulled back onto the road as quickly as she could desperately trying t

o calm herself down as she drove she grasped for a logical explanation for that awful sound she'd often heard that out here in the sticks bobcats were known to make similar screeching sounds at night must have been the local wildlife then right to help take her mind off things kifu ki decided to put on some music but just as she reached for her phone in the passenger seat something rushed past the headlights forcing her to slam on the brakes as the dust settled she looked ahead and saw the thing

s standing at the side of the road it wasn't a person but it wasn't quite an animal either the tall skinny thing appeared pale and hairless with loose skin sagging down below its arms legs and chin kifu ki only looked at it for a second before she slammed her foot on the gas and sped off with actual tears of horror rolling down her face she gripped the steering wheel so hard she left nail marks in the leather cover after an indeterminate amount of time driving as fast as possible kifuki found he

rself in the welcoming light of a gas station where she pulled over to call her dad of course she couldn't tell her dad she'd seen a monster so she said she'd seen a man in a scary costume instead her father insisted she called the police but when she did they expressed little concern and she could understand i mean a man in a scary costume freaking out lost drivers not exactly a worthy use of police time while nothing came of the call she's stuck with the costumed creeper story although she was

left with the feeling that the thing she'd seen was far from human after doing some research kifu ki likened the things she saw to a wendigo these cryptids have their origins in native american folklore and their descriptions vary widely from a malevolent loose-skinned creature to a deer-like animal human hybrid both forms have been terrifyingly brought to life in various artistic renditions online made even scarier with the careful use of photoshop to create ultra realistic hunting cam photos

like these there are more grounded explanations of course it's possible kifuki witnessed a bear suffering from mange causing it to lose its hair and take on an unusually menacing form or it really could have been an ill-intentioned human being waiting to do who knows what whatever the explanation it doesn't make kifuki's encounter in that abandoned town any less terrifying the downington tunnels in 2011 high school senior jay s and his paranormal loving group of friends set off on a road trip to

suburban philadelphia's downington tunnels the destination was known for an incident in 1995 when a local fisherman stumbled upon a maroon suitcase in the creek behind the tunnels the contents of which well let's just say they hinted at something seriously twisted having occurred in the area since the discovery the downington tunnels became famous for allegedly being haunted which was exactly why js and his friends were drawn to it reportedly if you walk through the tunnels at night you'll emer

ge on the other end with inexplicable scratches on your arms and if you listen very closely they say you can hear ghostly footsteps walking up and down the tunnels seeking a way out but never finding it jays and his friends arrived at the tunnels just before sunset when the road was quiet the tunnels being very long curved and dilapidated were already pitch black inside but despite driving through the tunnels numerous times j.s and his friends were left disappointed when nothing unusual happened

in a last-ditch effort they parked in the very center of one of the tunnels they switched off the lights rolled down the windows and sat back waiting for something anything to occur still nothing js decided to do one more lap before calling it a night they drove all the way out and back and parked in the same central spot after several minutes of yet more nothing js was just about to turn the keys in the ignition when suddenly he spotted a figure walking from one side of the tunnel to the other

he blinked a couple of times to make sure it wasn't some trick of the light but the figure was still there not only that it had actually turned and was walking directly toward the car the figure was tall and human-like it had impossibly broad shoulders disproportionately long arms and rectangular shaped head with no distinguishing features js panicked and turned on the car but the moment the headlights lit the tunnel the creature vanished he and his friends all looked at each other with the col

or drained from their faces they didn't have to say a word for js to know they had all seen the same thing js and his friends drove through the tunnels a couple more times but none of them saw the creature again if there ever was one since no one saw the thing in any kind of light it could have been anything shadow of a rat cast against a wall by the small amount of fading light outside or one of their shadows a trick of the mind attempting to fill the gaps in the darkness deprived of sensory in

put perhaps js thinking he'd seen something inadvertently coaxed his friends into thinking the same thing after all they did go there to see something paranormal it's certainly comforting to assume it was some trick of the darkness because if what they saw really was some kind of unidentifiable being beyond scientific comprehension well then what else might be lurking out there in the dark of night something to ponder when you turn off the lights before bed or when something goes bump in the nig
