I was working the night shift at my local wall bombs back when it used to be open 24 hours a day there would normally be less than 10 customers throughout my shift but I wouldn't get to sit around and do nothing though they wanted me to work on stock when I wasn't helping a customer it was a bigger wall bomb so often time there may have been one other person in the building whether it be someone working on stock or someone cleaning this night I was the only one working I was working stock in the cereal aisle when I heard something fall over on the other side of the shelf in the next aisle over I would always hear the door to the store sliding open it was the loudest thing ever so it kind of caught me off guard that that might have been a customer in the building of course it wasn't weird yet not until I looked to my left and saw a man standing by the edge of the aisle shooting me a blank stare do you need something sir I asked him no but could you just point me to the eggs he said he wasn't normal looking his face looked weird not exactly ugly just unusual like his upper lip kind of came out too far almost like a Simpsons character I was a bit uncomfortable that I had to deal with ringing him up I hurried to finish the cereal aisle and when I was done I began to bring the u-boat cart to the back room I was stopped halfway when the same guy cut me off through the middle section of the aisle I want to note this guy was probably in his mid 30s and at the time I was only 22 though I looked much younger the guy stopped me and started trying to make awkward small talk he started by asking me my name how old I was if and where I went to school and why I was doing the night shift his question started to get weirder when he asked me if I went to parties a lot and if I had a girlfriend I told him I didn't and he asked me if I've ever had a boyfriend while putting his hand on my shoulder I immediately started walking away with a cart but he followed me I told him I wasn't into whatever he was thinking about I went faster and faster until I finally made it to that storage room he didn't follow me in I wasn't supposed to stay back there for extended periods of time to avoid customer theft I decided it would be best to just wait for him by the register so that he would ring his stuff up and leave but I waited there for at least 20 minutes he never came I decided he was gone and whether he stole the eggs and something else there wasn't anything I could do now I had to go to the bathroom so I took a quick jog to the back of the store and into the employee bathroom moments after sitting on the toilet my heart dropped into my stomach as I heard the bathroom door open I choked the urge to say something something like you can't be in here but I didn't want to give away my position I lifted my leg so that I wouldn't be visible from under the stall and what happened next was simply horrifying i sat there for the longest time looking at the floor not moving a muscle when I finally looked up I could see an eye peering through the crack of the stall door I screamed I knew I was trapped I knew I had one shot at making a move I grabbed the box cutter in my pocket and began sliding it through the crack of the door forcing him to move his eye away I took that chance to slam the stall door open in his face and hightail it out of the bathroom and all the way out of the store I called my boss at least five times before he finally picked up and explained everything he told me to call the cops and so I did of course the man wasn't in the store anymore by the time the cops showed up I only did the night shift twice after that and luckily didn't see the man again I used to work the night shift at a gas station on the side of some highway in the country from the hours of 12 a.m. to 6 a.m. the road was pretty dead I would have maybe one or two people come in to pick cash in a whole night it was a very boring and depressing job especially doing the graveyard shift but I had just finished college and I needed to pay off my loans the only reason I kept this job was because my boss threw me an extra five dollars an hour for doing the night shift on this one cold December night I was doing my usual thing reading the newspaper playing games on my phone and whatnot when I noticed the headlights of a car pulling off the highway into the parking lot it was a red pickup truck somebody stepped out and shut the door I went back to reading the paper as I saw that he was standing by the gas pump I assumed he wasn't paying cash I looked up a few moments later and saw that he was still standing in the same position staring at the gas pump I almost felt obligated to go out and help him he was obviously confused I felt a cold chill run up my spine as I saw the six-foot-something tall man slowly turned his head to face me I couldn't I couldn't make out any features of his face but I knew he was staring at me I tried to pretend I didn't notice by going back to reading the paper of course I wasn't really reading now I was a bit shaken by the guy out there I just wanted him to pay debit or credit and leave I looked up and gasp as the man was now much closer to the front door of the building it wouldn't have been so disturbing if it weren't for the fact that he wasn't moving he was just standing still as before still looking in my direction I walked over to the door to get a closer look all I could see in his face was still blackness I locked the door and flipped the open sign to close down the door I think carefully would possibly get me in trouble I was not taking a chance because quite frankly I was scared shitless I walked back behind the counter and sat down on one of the containers on the floor just so I couldn't see the man outside anymore I stayed in that position for a good five minutes texting every friend I had to see who was awake I was desperate to tell somebody about this when I finally got up to check that he was gone I let out a full scream as the man was now right outside the door I picked up the phone on the counter and called the police the operator was reluctant to send somebody over because of the way I described the situation but I persuaded them I hid behind the counter balled up like a child I began to hear heavy thumps at the door not innocent knocks to catch my attention I mean thuds and thumps trying to break down the door and then eventually it finally stopped I heard the sound of a car starting outside and then driving off I looked outside and he was gone a patrol cop along with a state trooper pulled into the parking lot I reported the red pickup truck and told him which direction I thought he went in I couldn't describe his face as all I saw was blackness of course there wasn't much the police could do as the man didn't really do anything I left that job a few months later to a job in the city it was two years ago I was called in to do the night shift 10:00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m. at 7-eleven since somebody called out the store was located on a busy road in a rather quiet and rural area during the night shift you could expect anywhere from 10 to 20 people come in to buy a beer or something else this one particular night there was this one guy mid-20s that came in he started making weird noises like loud yelling noises I assumed he had some kind of mental disability in fact my brother has a mental disability so I immediately felt sympathy for the guy he walked up to the counter without any items with his head facing me but his eyes were looking up at the ceiling I felt uncomfortable I honestly didn't know how to deal with it I tried speaking with him but he only responded in loud noises I kept checking if he was with someone outside but he was alone there weren't any cars in the parking lot so I assumed he walked he stood there for so long looking up at the ceiling and making noises that I tried to get him out by handing him a bag of chips and telling him he can go I tried finding some kind of number to call for someone to help him then out of nowhere he finally turned around and walked out of the store I felt so horrible for the men but at the same time I felt a bit creeped out about an hour later at the phone on the counter ring I picked up to hear the familiar yelling sounds I'm the man from earlier it caught me off guard I didn't know what to think other than this has to be some kind of prank I hung up on them and was now becoming paranoid of my surroundings constantly checking the outside through the windows come four o'clock the person working after me came in finally allowing for me to go home it wasn't my problem anymore I got home and threw all my stuff on the table ready to get to sleep but my phone rang within a minute after entering the door I felt a chill run down my spine why would someone be calling at 4 a.m. I could only imagine it was bad news I braced myself and picked up the phone take care of the man again I felt sick to my stomach as I listened to the loud noises he made I struggled to slam the phone to the receiver all night I felt like I was being watched even with all the blinds shut and I could swear I heard strange noises coming from all over my house I refused to get any sleep until the Sun came up weeks passed and I had forgotten about the incident until one day when going into the basement for the first time in a while I found that papers had been scattered all over the floor and when I went into the basement closet I found writing on the walls 7-eleven had been written in sharpie on the wall along with the address to the 7-eleven I worked at and my house address the most disturbing part I also found various kitchen knives along with a large pocketknife sitting in the closet which started out as seemingly just an innocent person turning into something of a prank ultimately turned into something much more horrifying he had been living down there for god knows how long and I'm just grateful that for whatever reason he changed his mind and left because I haven't seen or heard from him since all I can say is that man is dangerously ill I've worked in the k-9 unit for nine years and I worked my fair share of graveyard shifts I've definitely come across weird things at night but I'll never forget this one night I worked with my dog Sammy a German Shepherd she was 2 years old at the time and it was still kind of new to the job just like me I was driving down a road surrounded by crops when I spotted a suspicious-looking white van parked inside the crops both doors were open I flashed my lights to try and draw out whoever was there nobody came out so I parked and scanned the place out quickly nobody was in sight so I took Sammy with me to track down the driver of the van Sammy started going crazy when we reached the trunk of the venn she was pulling so hard she almost broke off the leash I opened the trunk to the van and a blast of foul air hit me in the face I almost passed out from the mix of the horrible smell and the pure shock of what I saw on the trunk I counted seven full body bags each with a pair of feet sticking out at the bottom I requested immediate backup with my radio I heard the sound of a twig snapping nearby and Sammy just lost it I lost grip of the leash and she took off into the crops I pulled out my gun and followed the sounds of her barking as each and every crowd hit me in the face I felt as if something would reach out and grab me I stopped when I could no longer hear Sammy's barking but as I stopped the sounds of movement did not I realized I heard movement in all directions I had never experienced such fear in my life I stood still as the movement around me stopped and then out of nowhere I felt two arms wrap around my throat I couldn't breathe I couldn't fight I was going to die and then I heard the sound of Sam's bark followed by the scream of the man choking me a sandy bit down on his leg the next thing I did is something that I still question if it was appropriate doing to this day I turned around and pulled the trigger killing the man I grabbed Sammy by the leash and ran all the way back to the car I could tell people were following us from behind I managed to make it to the car safely and drive 1/4 mile down the road I didn't stop to see which way they went I didn't hold my ground I fled like a coward I cared much more about our lives than I did this job and I'll still say that today but it still pains me knowing how much of a coward I was backup arrived shortly but the van was gone I even failed to get the plate number on dashcam video or even just writing it down this was within my first few months on the force but it made me feel like absolute shit for months to come I someone who's sworn to protect let it van full of killers get away
