4 Scary TRUE Airport Horror Stories

the summer of 2007 when I was 10 years old the family and I had a trip to Disneyland planned our flight was booked for midnight on a Tuesday to save money and my mom figured my sisters and I would sleep through the flight my sisters were eight and five at the time The Gatehouse was for the most part empty as we waited for our flight my mom went to go to the bathroom with my youngest sister and a minute later my dad told me to wait there and watch my other sister well he went to get a last minute bite to eat at the cafe as the middle-aged woman came and sat next to us she put her hand on my back as she acted all excited to see us and asked where our parents were I told her they would be right back then the middle-aged man came over as well and started acting just as bubbly and affectionate towards us as if he knew us the man then proclaimed that he just ran into my dad at the cafe and finally introduced himself and the woman as our dads cousins my sister and I looked at each other and we both said hello really shyly the man reached out his hand for my sister to grab while the woman reached out her hand for me to grab they told us to follow them because they wanted us to meet their kids my sister and I naively got up took their hands and followed them the two started leading us out of the gatehouse past the cafe down the stairs and towards the lobby of the airport when I realized they were leading us to the entrance of the airport towards the parking lot I finally asked where are we going the woman looked at me through her thick frames glasses and with her cheeky smile said their kids were outside by the car as we walked outside into the dark parking lot I looked at my sister and became really uncomfortable I broke my hand free from the woman and said we wanted to go back inside while also taking my sister's hand from the man's I noticed the two looked at each other they're cheeky smiles both gone the man turned quickly to us and then aggressively wrapped his arms around me as the woman did the same to my sister they started to literally carry us closer to the parking lot as me and my sister screamed we heard yelling in the distance from two men who turned out to be airport security the crazed pair let us go and ran quicker than I'd ever seen anyone run quickly disappearing into the parking lot one of the men chased them down or at least tried to while the other talked with us for a bit then led us back into the airport back to our parents another sister it had only been a few minutes and my mom was already sobbing like a baby being that I was so young makes this a really weird and uncomfortable memory to think about it's also weird to think that I didn't see any red flags go off when the two didn't give us their names it was minutes before boarding my flight to North Carolina for a job interview the next day it was on the stormy February night everyone was bundled up and keeping to themselves I was sitting in the terminal room waiting for my flight to be called it wasn't going to be a very busy flight because there weren't many people in the waiting area someone sat down two seats away from me which wasn't too weird itself but also was a bit annoying considering most of the seats were open but it went from annoying to downright disturbing when I looked at him to see him weirdly staring at me I looked away and pretended not to care but I could tell he was still looking at me then he leaned over to me and whispered close to my ear that the two men sitting a row across for me were going on the same plane and we're planning on kidnapping me once we landed in North Carolina I didn't know what to say other than what the heavy man then got up and walked away at the same time my flight was called and I nervously boarded the plane while paying attention to the two men they sat down ahead of me and as I walked past them approaching my seed they both stared me down at that moment I started to wonder if that man's warning were true a few hours later we arrived to NC and on my way out of the plane and leaving the airport I cautiously looked around trying to spot the two men when I was finally outside in the dark cold parking lot I spotted them the two men were peering their heads at me from around a red minivan and I guess when they saw me looking in their direction they hid behind the van I walked back inside of the airport waited half an hour called for a taxi waited for it to pull up front and rode to my hotel so many questions I don't know who that man was who warned me I don't know how he knew of those other two men and I have no idea what they were planning on doing to me if they were actually looking to kidnap me so this happened a few months ago I'm 26 I was at JFK Airport in New York with five friends all of us were about to fly down to Florida to spend the week in a beach house we had a few more minutes to kill in the airport before we would board our flight and I really had to go to the bathroom all of a sudden I was baffled to see a line out the door for the bathroom I noticed a janitor walking by so I asked her if there was another bathroom nearby that wouldn't be so crowded she left and told me she shouldn't really be telling people there was another bathroom past the door she was pointing at down the narrow flight of stairs and to the left I thanked her because she was extremely nice and followed the directions she gave me sure enough behind that door that no one would think to open was a small stairway that led down to a really poorly lit skinny hallway it was so narrow that if two people were to pass by each other one person would have to stand against the wall to make room I found the bathroom right away the door was extremely heavy and hard to push also the lights were on inside the bathroom and it was filthy in there it was evident that nobody ever really came in there to clean now this is a little embarrassing to mention but when I go to the bathroom in public places I always try to make sure nobody else is around to possibly hear me going so after checking the stall to see that it was unoccupied I went back into the hallway for a second to take a look down both directions to the left there was somebody standing at the end of the hall in a dark unlit section of the hallway it was a disturbing sight to say the least all I could do was awkwardly pull my head back into the bathroom and tried to pretend we didn't see each other I went into the stall and just stood there biting my fingers for a minute dreading the thought of that door opening and of course it did I saw the man's black shoes onto the stall door as he walked to the stall next to mine he shut the door and then there was silence no sound of the man unzipping his fly or sitting down nothing I realized I didn't really have to go anymore and when to unlock the stall door that's when I looked up and saw the man's head peering over the stall looking at me I nearly had a heart attack as my screams bounced off the walls with the tiny bathroom I ran back up those damn steps not that door and then casually walks back over to my friends I was breathing heavily but nobody seemed to notice I didn't tell anyone just because it was embarrassing and I didn't want my friends to make fun of me in any way I know I guess that seems stupid now we went on to have our Florida vacation and all had a good time of course the thought of that creepy man haunted me every night that week [Music] my wife recently took a trip to California with a few four girlfriends I was her ride to the airport and I was there for her ride back from the airport as well I waited around in the lobby for a while her flight ran a little behind schedule so it was about 15 minutes late I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw my wife Michelle and her four friends heading over in my direction Michelle wave capilene ran over to give me a big hug and kiss I said hello to all her friends as well Michelle suddenly started patting her pockets and a concerned expression appeared on her face she looked at me and told me she lost her wallet and keys so Michelle and I along with one of her friends who was kind enough to help out all went back up to the terminal looked everywhere we asked one of the airport workers to have the plane check for a wallet and keys long story short we spent a great deal of time looking around the airport to find nothing she insisted she had both the wallet and keys after she left the plane though eventually we had to call it quits and went home a worker assured us that if the items came up we would be contacted immediately Michelle was in the sour mood the whole ride home because of it when we got home Michelle went up to our room and I could hear her throw her giant bag onto the bed all the way from downstairs as I was in the kitchen about to make a quick snack for myself that was when the scream of my wife from upstairs hit me cold in the chest I ran to our room to see here pointing at the bathroom door I looked at it and then the two closet doors across the room they've both been opened and all of our personal belongings had been thrown all over the floor box is opened with papers that were once in them scattered all over the floor she stuttered out the words there's someone in the bathroom to me I felt like my heart stopped in response to those words but I had to be the man of the house and step up I tried the doorknobs to the bathroom but of course it was locked Michelle left the room in a hurry which I later found out she did to call the cops downstairs I started ramming at the week-old door with my shoulder and after five solid hits I busted the door down only the bathroom was empty and the window was jammed completely open wide enough for someone to squeeze through I comforted Michelle until the cops arrived and listening to her description to the cops was bone-chilling she had just thrown her bag onto the bed not even having noticed the closets yet and out of nowhere felt something brush up past her when she turned she saw a massively tall man walking to the bathroom staring at her the whole time with wide eyes and a blank expression she was only able to get a scream out after the man locked himself into the bathroom it's safe to say he found my wife's keys wallet and so on easy opportunity to break into a house we had our locks changed the next day and never saw the man again
