Graveyard Shift workers of Reddit, what crazy, creepy, unbelievable things have you seen working in the dead of night?

"I was out on patrol of our camp in Guatemala a few years back. We had heard stories about how the place was haunted with Aztec activity in the area, but I never really paid much attention to it. So there was about 4 or 5 of us in a van just kinda hanging out, going around camp, and keeping an eye out for anything out of place. We stopped the van at one point, and everyone got out to walk around a little and a few of the guys wanted to smoke.

So I'm standing in front of this small field of grass that's about knee high, when I hear a rustling. I said something out loud about it and a few other guys came over to check it out. It was a relatively well lit area, and we figured it would be some small animal-probably one of the big lizards they had in the area. Next thing we know, the rustling starts coming straight at us, and you see the grass parting as if someone was walking through it (kinda staggered instead of just one straight line). We all hauled ass for the van, and got outta there as quick as possible! I think at one point, there was a guy just standing on the back bumper and hanging on the roof rack. lol As we were driving away, we were looking back to make sure it wasn't just something we were going to laugh about after it came out of the grass, but sure enough-we could see the grass rustling all the way up to the roadside and then it just stopped.

We were ready to deal with any man or beast that we come across, but you put something that seems like a ghost in front of us and we're out!

I know this part isn't graveyard shift related, but it is related to what we saw that night:

I don't remember if this was the day of or if it happened the day after, but it was within an hour or so of sunset, and we were getting ready for a security briefing coming up. I stepped in the port-o-john to handle buisness, and when I came out I see a bunch of my guys standing up on an embankment looking out towards the beach. I head over and ask them what happened. They tell me they heard a blood curling scream, then looked down the beach and saw what looked like a man dragging a woman down the beach. So I asked them what were they still standing around for, lets go check into this. About 4 or 5 of us took off, and when we got to the beach, we saw foot prints in the sand with occasional drag marks. So we put our rifles in condition one, and start following the marks. We followed it for about 1/4 mile and the marks just stopped.

They didn't start heading off the beach, it wasn't an area where the water could have erased them-they just stopped.

So...that was kinda creepy. I was glad all that happened during our last day or two before we got out of Guatemala."

Graveyard Shift workers of Reddit crazy, unexplained, odd, strange, unbelevable stories and events

Taking from my Facebook page:

Haunting's do exist and I suspect they are nothing more then simple recordings on the environment, sound mainly, recorded unto the environment under certain conditions, in certain area's that are high stress-high emotion places like Hospitals, Mental Institutions and other places where human emotions run high (I have to wonder about death camps and gas chambers regarding this issue).

These emotions are recorded onto the environment, like a tape recorder, but may also include images and actions such as doors being opened, and played back under the right conditions. Certain people may be able to pick them up more then others.

See story below for an example:

"I work at a hospital overnight.

One disturbed patient claimed to be jesus. He clawed his eye out, popped it and ate it before he was restrained. Very disturbing.

Many employees claim this hospital was haunted. I thought it was nonsense. A few things happened here, that's given me a belief there's more to people than a heart beat.

They close 4th floor occasionally. It used to be a baby ward. I was up there when I heard a baby crying. I called security. He heard it too. No baby anywhere. One night I was assigned to strip and wax a few rooms up there. While starting a door slammed shut across the hall. I called out who was there. Nobody was. Looking in the room, no air flow, no windows opened. I calmly took my equipment and left. The next day my boss asked me why I didn't do my job. I said I don't get paid enough to deal with doors that slam by themselves.

By far the creepiest. I was cleaning two rooms after patients left. They were connected. There was one exit. I cleaned the first room. Left for 10 minutes, got my supplies and went back to the other. I saw a little old lady in a chair, hunched oveer. I stared at her for a few sconds, thought it was odd they put a patient in already. Two female nurses ask if I was sitting in the chair. They get scared. Nope, it was an old lady. Well, I check. Room is empty. She disappeared. I would have seen if she walked passed me. Creepy. No one on the floor fit the description I gave of her - except the lady who died in the room 4 hours before my shift.
I work in a very old hospital. I hear whispers, see shadows, and sometimes more. I am very skeptic but seeing a ghost would be neat."

Bizarro Staten Island bozo freaks out locals - yahoo news

A creepy clown has been freaking out residents of Staten Island, according to local media reports. But it appears the bizarro bozo may be part of a marketing stunt.

The silent clown, which loosely resembles the Pennywise character from the Stephen King book “It,” has been spotted at various locations — including street corners and train stations — throughout the borough, holding a bouquet of balloons and waving at passersby.

“Guess who’s not sleeping tonight!” Robert Privitera wrote upon seeing the creepy clown.

"He was just kinda standing there waving," Vincent Innocente told the Staten Island Advance of his encounter with the yellow-clad character.

"So I'm a little freaked out right now," Michael Leavy wrote on Instagram March 17. "I was driving home from Buffalo Wild Wings and saw this waving at me. #wtf ... is this real life?
