Creepy Stories

11/11/11

It was 11/11/11, and my friends and I were having a great sleepover at my place. We made a deal that no one should sleep, you know, so we could enjoy the sleepover while it lasted.

It was around 10:30 PM, my parents were already asleep, and we need some grub to keep ourselves awake. We had planned to make a "ghost hunting film" outside the house. My friend, Jaebhy, brought a HD camera with a night vision function, which was enough to suit our filming needs.

Since I was too lazy to go to the nearby 24-hr convenience store, I told my friends to buy some noodles and batteries for flashlights. I told them to bring a flashlight since the alley that they would pass through doesn't have a single light to illuminate the way. Taking a large flashlight from next to the door, my friends headed out to the shop.

Only a few minutes later I realized that they had taken the camera when they left. I thought I'd miss out on all the fun, so I checked on the front window of our house to see if I could catch up with them. Unfortunately, they had already disappeared down the street. It was way too dark outside to try catching up to them on my own; I just have a minor fear of the dark.

Just as I was about to go back to the computer where I'd been sitting, something caught my attention from outside the window. From what I can remember, it was a tall, thin man, with dark colored clothes. He was walking towards the alley in such a disturbing manner, I thought he must have been disabled or something; I could see the struggle in his steps. A few moments later, his face slowly turned towards me. By now I was a bit creeped out, but I felt that I couldn't look away. As I stared fixatedly at the strange man, I noticed something... wrong with his face. It was white, I mean really white, and I could barely make out his eyes. I didn't even see his face move or anything, as if he were wearing a mask. Yes, it really had to be a mask.

Finally tearing my eyes away from the disturbing sight, I crept back to my computer and surfed the net. I just need something to calm me down, I thought. The man I saw had sent a cold, lifeless stare directly at me. Shivers were still running up and down my spine as I sat there. I never wanted to see him again.

At about 11 PM, my friends came back. They seemed all confused and scared, which made my thoughts wander to the man I had seen. Had they seen him too? That was when I noticed that one of my friends, Mark, was missing.

My heart stopped. Mark? Missing?

My friends explained that after they had bought their stuff from the store, Mark was left alone for a few seconds. Next thing they knew, he was gone. All they found was the camera.

I immediately felt suspicion along with my mounting terror, so I removed the memory card from the camera and plugged it on my computer. I noticed something strange: all the other pictures and videos that were shot by the camera before my friends went out were gone, and all that was left was one new video. The exact title of the video was &%#%$###1# 11/11/11. I couldn't understand how the video ended up having a name like that, so all I could think of to do was... watch it.

The content of the video was actually footage of my friends on the way to the store. It was Mark who was holding the camera, and my other friends seemed to be annoyed because they didn't want Mark to waste the batteries. Apparently that was only the first clip of the video; it suddenly cut to a blank.

The next clip was Mark focusing the camera and the flashlight on my friends. They were starting to get really mad, but Mark didn't really care. Along the way, Mark got footage of another person walking along the alley. The person was walking very slowly and seemed to twitch a little. I felt sick. It wast the samed man, the same terrifying person I saw from my window. A minute later my friends got ahead of the person, but something wasn't right. There was a little tone of white noise that seemed to gradually be getting louder. After a few seconds, Mark focused the camera a on the other person. The camera got all static and repeated a few frames, but through it all I could just make out the face of the person. My suspicions were confirmed: it was the same man I saw earlier. His face was also white, and it really did look like a mask.
