We travel to create remarkable memories and spend happy time with the people we love. While most trips are recorded for the happy times, some stick out for far stranger causes. These travelers didn’t come home with souvenirs, but with unrecognized stories that still annoy them, even years later.
Story 1:
My family and I took a trip to Italy and were staying in this charming but slightly creepy historic hotel. We took tons of photos the whole time, mostly on my son’s camera. When we returned home and looked through them, we froze. There was one photo we definitely didn’t take.
It was a blurry snap taken in the middle of the night. The photo showed a room that looked exactly like the one we stayed in, but the angle was strange, like it was taken from the upper corner of the ceiling where a security camera might be.
We checked the timestamp. It was taken at 3:03 AM on our second night, the same night my husband said he had a lucid dream. At the time, we thought it was just that, a weird dream. But now…I’m not so sure.
Story 2:
My flight was delayed, so I had to spend the night out. I checked in a hotel at midnight. When I entered the room, turned on the lights and walked over to the bed, I screamed because there was a guy on the bed staring blankly at the ceiling. He didn’t move or react at all. I ran to the reception and told them.
When we all went to the room, we froze. The guy was nowhere; the room was empty. The bed was still made like no one had touched it. They gave me a new room, but I barely slept. I still have no idea what I saw.

Story 4:
On a road trip, I stayed at this weird little roadside motel. Around 2 a.m., I woke up and saw a woman’s face peeking in through the window. I was on the second floor. I froze.
When I got the courage to check, there was no one outside, just a chair below the window that hadn’t been there before.
Story 5:
I was on an overnight train and had a window seat. A man across the aisle just stared at me, nonstop, for hours. Didn’t blink much, didn’t say a word, just watched. Even when I pretended to sleep, I could feel him staring.
Eventually I asked if he was okay. I froze when he just smiled and said, “You look like her.” Never said who, and I didn’t dare to ask.

Story 7:
I got up to use the bathroom in the train and saw a woman walking toward me who looked exactly like my sister. Same coat, same haircut, same walk. I even said her name out loud.
She didn’t respond. Just walked past me and disappeared into another car. My sister texted me literally 10 seconds later, she was at home, hundreds of miles away.
Story 8:
Stayed at an old inn during a road trip. Woke up in the middle of the night feeling like someone was breathing right next to my face. I turned on the light, no one there, door still locked, room empty. But the mirror across the room was fogged up like someone had exhaled on it.
