Short Scary Stories

You Need To Go Outside

I used to live in a house that backs up to a big open public space where people jog and jog.

Anyway, one night I had a kinda creepy dream that an old lady came into my room and was trying to get me outside. The dream woke me up so I got some water and turned off my fan because it was cold and then went back to sleep.

I went back into the same exact dream with the lady coming into my room gently talking to me, saying I need to come outside. I kept telling her no because it was too cold outside.

I woke up again and the fan was still on. I thought it got stuck or I didn't press it hard enough. I got back up and turned it off, then went back to sleep.

This time I had the same exact dream, except in this one she looked much older and agitated. She was yelling, "GO OUTSIDE! YOU MUST GO NOW!" I got up in the dream and followed her into the hallway. When I got into the hallway, she want there. I woke up and I was actually in the hallway. I had never sleepwalked before or after this. When I returned to my room the fan was still on... I turned it back off. Again...

At this point I was too freaked out to go back to bed. I went downstairs, agot some food and watched tv for hours. When I was finidhed, it was about 5 or 6 AM. The dream never came back.

The scariest part is that a few days later, I saw police cars were outside our house. I asked my mom what was going on and she said that they had found an older woman that went missing a few days earlier. They said that she must have had a heart attack or a stroke. I turned on the tv and flipped it onto the news.

It.

Was.

The.

Same.

Woman.
