Creepy And Strange Things People Saw Working Night Shift


Not too much good happens between the hours of 3 and 5 in the morning. If anyone is out and about, there's a good chance they're not out to shop for groceries or buy flowers for their mom. Sometimes people are out to lurk. Darkness does that. People see some creepy stuff working the night shift.

Text - Artyom150 2.3k points · 12 hours ago My buddy and I were in the guard shack on an important entry point - like 100% ID checks, can't be expired, gotta double-check against a list put out even if the IDs are valid so if you're not on the list your ID doesn't mean shit. It's around 3 AM and we're watching creepy YouTube videos during the time that nobody is coming through. He looks up and shouts "What the fuck", I look up and scream like a little girl and nearly jump out of my chair. Dollar

Once had an elderly guy come in wearing only a jean jacket and fishnet stockings. He came up to my register, leaned in, and asked if we carried anything to get rid of lice... Those plastic barriers all stores have now to protect cashiers? They need to keep those even after the pandemic ends. I lost count of the t

It was pitch dark outside and very quiet. Person on a bike came out of nowhere, said he remembered me from middle school (even said the right school name), and rode off.

A guy passed our office, looking at us a little shifty, came back again and asked if we had access to the morgue. We said "yes,"thinking he was doing a pickup for a funeral home, but that seemed strange given it was around 12:00-12:30 a.m. Nope. He wanted to pay us to let him in, and leave him alone with the bodies for an hour. We escorted him

Out of sight, he keeps yelling "fucker!" and smacking handle at something, for like 5 min. I am ringing up customers, and freaking out because he was losing his mind, but I am not interested in getting involved in a murder.so I ignore Later I find out he was chasing a rat.

Took my flashlight expecting something awful. Noticed as I got closer the smell and the ravens taking turns going in a hole they had torn open and popping out covered in gunk. some guy left a broke down beater with a couple animal carcasses in the back to rot. No heads. Checked the logs and the damn truck had be

Text - Ghoulthrower676 13.5k points · 13 hours ago Was walking through the simulation lab for nursing students at the hospital I work at on very little sleep, all the lights were off and it was my first time working night shift, turned a corner and saw what I thought was a person standing behind a lamp that was on, turns out it was a mannequin holding the pull cord. Really freaked me out and I was awake after that

Text - DC4MVP 9.7k points · 13 hours ago I worked in an open quarry mine down in Texas. We had this storm where it rained like a mother fucker for hours and hours. Being nightshift (6:30pm-6:30am) supervisor, I was in charge of 8 CAT 745 haul trucks, 2 CAT 390 excavators, 6 CAT 980 loaders, 2 D8 dozers, and 1 D9 dozer. It was about 2 am when I had 3 haul trucks get stuck in the bottom of the mine. Just spinning their tires endlessly. It was horrible. Since we're talking about tens of thousands o

Text - I called him at minimum 13 times within an hour to get him to shut the mine down. Since it was 2 am, he never answered which NEVER happened as he always had his phone on. 3-4 of us were soaking wet and covered from head to toe in mud to the point where you couldn't even tell we were wearing neon green hi-vis safety gear. We got the trucks pulled out of the mine after roughly 3 hours of using a combo of the dozers and loaders and excavators to essentially build a new road from dryer materi

There is one old baker in the back that rarely interacts with me past a dirty joke or a dirtier ditty from his Navy days. Other than that I'm alone. Not another soul around the area and I expect it to remain so for at least an hour yet. I'm boxing up the day old's for the homeless shelter when I swear I see something out of the corner of my eye. It's behind me. I turn, then look down. There's

Text - Police arrive. Baker comes back says that he can't find anyone else in the streets. The guy from the 24/7 corner store said he'll keep an eye out. Police try to speak to the kid and also get nothing but mutterings and half-hearted gestures. They take him away. I see them again for their morning coffee and they told me the little guy walked several kilometers from the nearest reservation in the dead of night to my store. He had got into his parents medicine cabinet and just... walked out o

A few of us were up on the stage, not really talking, just taking care of business when suddenly I saw out of the corner of my eye something go very quickly by the open door to the lobby. Wtf? Then it went by again andI actually saw what it was. A guy with long hair, wearing pajamas, and no socks or

Text - thegamblerx 6.9k points · 13 hours ago I used to work night shift as a care aide in an old folks home. It was already creepy, the home was an old hospital that was converted. Some asshole kept walking around the courtyard after dark dressed as the grim reaper knocking on doors. It was actually really scary, he ran off and the facility got a security guard for a few weeks.

I pulled off as the truck blew past my car rocking it. Thing was there was twisty turns ahead. Couldn't find the truck. Update: No he wasn't experiencing brake failure this was on an uphill which the route is slow and progressively up hill. I'm not on the Grapevine or 4th of July pass. It was just hauling ass. They w
