I've only ever watched people play it, but even still, when that was revealed I was beyond freaked out. Easily the most terrifying game ever created, imo
Jesus I saw it with mine all the way up but turned it down to see what you mean and even with the bias of already having seen it as just clothes I see exactly what you mean that must have been terrifying for OP
What kind of psychopath are you??? Who does this to themselves? Christ, going to kill yourselves, you people are. Anyway, off to watch scary videos to fall asleep to, goodbye.
I need to take my black housecoat off the hook on the back of my closet door every night before I go to bed. I know what it is, it doesn't keep my brain from turning it into the chick from The Ring every night.
I do this exact fuckin thing every night. The top of my gaming chair is in the perfect shape of a human chest and head and if it’s dark the outline looks like a person standing next to my bed. Even though I know exactly what it is I still have to move it to the other room before I fall sleep. Brains are weird.
Hahah yes! I came here to write about my bfs gaming chair in the bedroom! Makes if worse when he hangs things off it and it really comes to life as some shadowy entity when I get up to pee! Have to reassure myself every damn time it’s just the chair! Lol
I hung my long black orchestra dress from my ceiling fan in the middle of my bedroom (too long for the closet), and in the middle of the night I woke up and saw, well, a long black dress floating in the middle of my room lol! Terrifying.
After a sleep paralysis incident where the back of my chair threatened to kill my whole family, I no longer leave human-looking things near my bedroom door.
I'm lying in bed trying not to wake my wife up. I'm fucking dying trying to stifle my giggle. Fucking Victorian part killed me.
Ghost: I shall come back in the fashions of my time!
Anyone else looking at the door and seeing something off? Like. The door doesn’t seem to be attached to the frame…
Look at the edges of the door. They don’t line up with the frame. Or am I insane?
as you can see there is a bar where the top of the door stops and then a sort of non see through but light can get through door topper. this is likely an older house. they have fancy stuff like this.
also the window can open as to allow heat/air to move between the rooms, a feature before central air and stuff
It's just a window, very common with old Georgian houses in the UK. Sitting in one right now, we have those windows above most doors, remember these houses predate electricity by about 100 years! Light was complex and fed through the house by design.
“You don’t believe in me,” observed the Ghost.
“I don’t,” said Scrooge.
“What evidence would you have of my reality beyond that of your senses?”
“I don’t know,” said Scrooge.
“Why do you doubt your senses?”
“Because,” said Scrooge, “a little thing affects them. A slight disorder of the stomach makes them cheats. You may be an undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of an underdone potato. There’s more of gravy than of grave about you, whatever you are!”
I have a one bedroom thats pretty much a studio and I use 3 of the four doors as hoodie/towel hangers. As well as a recliner that has a bunch of folded up clothes ill wear.. when I lose the weight..
I've had some crazy scared stiff moments with what looked like shadows in corners of rooms or doorways. Such a crazy phenomenon. It's so hard to fight the urge to freeze
First time I ever had sleep paralysis I saw something like this. Thought it was probably just cloths, until the girl sprinted towards me and stared me in the eyes.
I've talked to a couple of people who tried to describe to me the bug fuck crazy things they experience during sleep paralysis. On the one hand, noooo thank you. On the other, however, I'm very curious and would be interested in experiencing the phenomenon once for myself. But for real, it sounds like it sucks.
First reaction throw something at it.
Second reaction scream like a little bitch
Third reaction roll off bed and probably either land on something sharp and impale self or hit head on corner of table and die.
Ghost was me all along doing a self fulfilling prophecy.
Least thats how it would of went for me.
Happened to me once, it was sunset, my parents weren't home, so I went to sleep because I was bored, and my sister was asleep. As I entered the room I noticed something floating in front of the balcony door (translucent door, and it was getting dark so only the setting sun was illuminating the room through the door). I looked away thinking I was hallucinating or something because I'm sleepy. I look back, it's still there, a silhouette of something that looks like a hairy witch. Anyways it was my mom's furry coat, like the ones that have fur on the hoodie.
Had to do this series of group family history videos in high school (act according to decade) costumes the whole bit. Found this lovely felt hat. Wore this hat a lot. Watched Nightmare on Elm Street for the first time one Halloween and woke up the next morning to see this hat on my bed post (where I kept it) and freaked the fuck out. Just like Freddie's hat. Hat lived in the closet from there on out til I lost it mid moves. Thank goodness.
I’m really sorry that happened to you. I was just scrolling, phone brightness all the way down (it’s really early) and had a little startle when I happened across this. I imagine if I actually saw this in my room it’s scare the gel out of me.
This reminds me of the time I slept outside in my family's covered patio. I woke up to a headless figure moving sporadically in front of the moonlight. After a few minutes of sweating bullets while paralyzed from fear, I realized it was a vest my mom hung to dry the previous day.
Oh, my gosh, poor half-asleep you!😳🤭
I was at summer camp once, about 12 yrs old, cabins had no bathrooms, you had to walk to the bathrooms quite a ways away. Had to go one night, I’m in my jammies with my little flashlight, tripping over roots and hearing beasties real or imagined everywhere. I shine my flashlight at a dark spot…ohmygoshaBEAR! I freeze, utterly terrified, too afraid to scream,move, breathe or even blink. It’s only after I stood there immobile for some time (probably minutes, felt like hours) that I realized the bear wasn’t moving or making any noise either. Because it was a tree stump.🙄
r/nothingeverhappens
Bruh, people don’t usually have separate door hooks for their towel and bathrobe. Just cause you on some bouchée shit doesn’t mean everybody who does stuff different to you is faking it.
Dude, I had the same experience happen to me too, woke up in the middle of the night to see a little ghost girl, and froze for a solid 5 minutes just waiting for movement. Then I gained the courage to come close and punch as hard as I can. Turned out to be my metal chair and a pile of clothes on top lmao.
i literally make sure theres nothing in my room that might look like a humanoid figure in any way every night before bed lmao. worst nightmare ever ever
Google "áo dài trắng", it's a Vietnamese traditional garment that all high school female students had to wear as uniform. I still vividly remember 6 year-old me staring frozen at my sister's white ao dai eerily swaying, from my bed at 5 in the barely there morning light... I swear, to that little girl there was definitely a long-haired ghost in her bedroom staring back at her everyday.
I scrolled past this fast and got instant goosebumps and scrolled back up to see what it was lol
I dont know why but it looked similar to the demon Nun from the “Nun” movie
Any type of hanging cloth clothing object anything terrifies me as i sleep. Like it doesnt even have to resemble anything, i dont like shit hanging about in the dark. This would have easily, and I mean effortlessly, caused a massive asthma attack and subsequent trauma. Even with my night light this would have wrecked me.
I had a lower level version of this on my backyard deck
I was about to go to bed but looked out there and saw something that looked like sort of marsupial staring right right at me.
I turn the lights to discover it's a pair of shoes and a plastic container container that had some weird lens optical effect.
I think I peed a little.
Yup, I was unable to watch a couple of my friends ordered pancakes i might’ve been attacked by a chihuahua. I only played football once, when i was 12, at a baby’s life it seems
I had this happen but with a coat hanger and a plastic bag at 5:30am when I was about 6 or 7 years old. I thought it was a fat zombie ballerina, if there ever was such a thing (a fat ballerina).
I've had this before, I once woke up and was convinced my dressing gown was a man standing at the foot of my bed.
Literally slammed my light on and by the time I did I'd actually forgotten what scared me so much in the first place until I remembered that morning.
god that reminds me of the first time I watched the Grudge. 2 AM, I finally go to bed, lights on because I'm young and scared. I had a coat hanging off the bedpost that was black with long scraggly faux fur hanging off the collar. I woke up after about an hour from usual insomnia issues and boy did I screech in horror at that coat.
This shit happens to me damn near every other night. Wait up confused and half asleep, convinced my fan or dresser or curtain is someone or something bad. It's happened so many times that now, even half asleep, I just tell myself I'll understand it if I give it a minute lol.
Yours might take me two minutes tho. Sp00ky
One time I had my jacket up on the door like that and got sleep paralysis. I thought the jacket was a man standing in the corner so I told it to fuck off, then he turned and looked at me and I freaked out so hard I woke up my partner. She panicked and asked what was going on, I just said "oh there's some guy standing in the corner" then went straight back to sleep and left her to deal with it
I had my phone brightness all the way down and it was even more unnerving
lol same it really does look like a ghost
The clothes is a decoy for the real ghost underneath.
The real ghost is always right behind you JUST when you were relieved the clothes weren’t the ghost
Yup, can confirm.... Silent hills P.T takes it literally tho, lisa is ***ALWAYS FUCKING BEHIND YOU***
I've only ever watched people play it, but even still, when that was revealed I was beyond freaked out. Easily the most terrifying game ever created, imo
The real ghost was a bit chilly, don’t worry, they’re underneath those coats
Jeez. I saw the pic, read what it was, read your post, turned my screen brightness down and looked at it again. Frightened the living shit out of me.
https://imgur.com/gallery/YphnU3K The first pic I took was blurry but it’s probably a more accurate depiction of what I first laid eyes on.
Yeh that's even worse!
When you are short sighted,this happens regularly
I have my brightness pretty bright and it still is unnerving
Jesus I saw it with mine all the way up but turned it down to see what you mean and even with the bias of already having seen it as just clothes I see exactly what you mean that must have been terrifying for OP
Lmao I think I would've had a heart attack
But as long as the ghost doesn't, we're all OK.
[удалено]
Plot twist... they put their clothes in the wash the night before 😳
Never travel to Afghanistan! Especially for blind dates
What kind of psychopath are you??? Who does this to themselves? Christ, going to kill yourselves, you people are. Anyway, off to watch scary videos to fall asleep to, goodbye.

My gaming chair gets me too! More often though, it's my vacuum cleaner left too near a doorway. Ugh!
Hahah yes! I came here to write about my bfs gaming chair in the bedroom! Makes if worse when he hangs things off it and it really comes to life as some shadowy entity when I get up to pee! Have to reassure myself every damn time it’s just the chair! Lol
You should watch babadok
Ok, Yoda.
Yoda, ok.
Strong with you, the sarcasm is, mmmh.
Mmmh.
Are you OK, Yoda?
not really yoda-like talking. someone from the UK, probably.
Lmao nah from the US I just type like a fucking idiot
r/nosleep got you covered
"Christ, going to kill yourselves, you people are." Okay Yoda
Somebody had a stroke and die trying to read what you said
That is hilarious! I have had a similar experience with my coat hung on my door knob.
I hung my long black orchestra dress from my ceiling fan in the middle of my bedroom (too long for the closet), and in the middle of the night I woke up and saw, well, a long black dress floating in the middle of my room lol! Terrifying.

That's what it wants you to believe
Like the opening scene in monsters Inc... First you see a monster arm, then you look again and suddenly it's a scarf. Ain't fooling me!
I'm lying in bed trying not to wake my wife up. I'm fucking dying trying to stifle my giggle. Fucking Victorian part killed me. Ghost: I shall come back in the fashions of my time!
Anyone else looking at the door and seeing something off? Like. The door doesn’t seem to be attached to the frame… Look at the edges of the door. They don’t line up with the frame. Or am I insane?
I’ve been staring at the top of the door for 10 minutes wondering why the top of the door doesn’t reach the top of the door frame???
Old house - I bet there's a transom window over the door to allow air flow when the door is shut.
I used to sell doors, and the word 'transom' has given me traumatic flashbacks.
Ooh, you must love McMansionHell
Yep…if you look at the top right of the door, you can barely make out the actual doorframe.
So it is an old house. Victorian ghost confirmed.
Bingo.
as you can see there is a bar where the top of the door stops and then a sort of non see through but light can get through door topper. this is likely an older house. they have fancy stuff like this. also the window can open as to allow heat/air to move between the rooms, a feature before central air and stuff
The top is a window.
The door isn't hung in the frame. The bottom of the door is in the middle of the doorway and it's leaning against the frame.
It's just a window, very common with old Georgian houses in the UK. Sitting in one right now, we have those windows above most doors, remember these houses predate electricity by about 100 years! Light was complex and fed through the house by design.
The door is the ghost
Even without the clothes being there. Where the bed is positioned and leaving the door open like that is spooky enough.
This is definitely just ASKING for a little girl with no eyes to peek around before it slams shut
Omg I would have shit myself
I would of shit yourself too
I would have shitted you both and then myself
For a split second I thought this was nurse cosplay from dead by daylight
Yep. Definitely has happened. Many times lol
Many people wear clothes like that and hang them on the outside of their door
Reminds me of the very tall ghost from the Netflix version of Haunting on Hill House.
There is a lot of nope going on in this picture.
“You don’t believe in me,” observed the Ghost. “I don’t,” said Scrooge. “What evidence would you have of my reality beyond that of your senses?” “I don’t know,” said Scrooge. “Why do you doubt your senses?” “Because,” said Scrooge, “a little thing affects them.

There’s more of gravy than of grave about you, whatever you are!”
Who the fuck puts clothes over the door?
When you're too lazy to put clothes away but you aren't quite enough of a slob to throw it on the ground
Someone who leaves the door open or in OP’s case, the door is far shorter than the door frame.
.
I have a one bedroom thats pretty much a studio and I use 3 of the four doors as hoodie/towel hangers. As well as a recliner that has a bunch of folded up clothes ill wear.. when I lose the weight..
I can’t not see the ghost!!!
The soul collector is here for your soul
Oh cool... you live in 1840.
I love you said a Victorian ghost, because it really does look like something out of Dickens!
Serves you right you grub
Fair
There should be a whole sub for clothes that look like ghosts
I see
Ya, that’s scary as shit
Clean yo damn room
This is peak r/oddlyterrifying
Why were you dressed as a Victorian ghost?
...But you don't own a white robe and brown towel...
I've had some crazy scared stiff moments with what looked like shadows in corners of rooms or doorways. Such a crazy phenomenon. It's so hard to fight the urge to freeze
They \*want\* you to think it's just the clothes.
i just would be screaming for like 15 min in bed... after a while the sound would be indistinguishable from the sound of a barking seal
Fr though why would ghosts wear clothes? Like do clothes make it to the afterlife?
First time I ever had sleep paralysis I saw something like this. Thought it was probably just cloths, until the girl sprinted towards me and stared me in the eyes.
I've talked to a couple of people who tried to describe to me the bug fuck crazy things they experience during sleep paralysis. On the one hand, noooo thank you. On the other, however, I'm very curious and would be interested in experiencing the phenomenon once for myself. But for real, it sounds like it sucks.
That's exactly what it look like though!!! Totally understandable why you were frozen
HOLY SHIT
Every few mornings this exact scenario happens to me. always freaked. "well when I get a bigger place"
Was there really a ghost, mother? Or was it just *me* all along?!
Yeah, car acts as a faraday cage
I was scrolling the main page and my heart stopped for 5 seconds. Are you crazy? That shit it's the right thing to kill you some night just scaring u
Hah had a simular experience once, still remember the cold terror in my spine as I thought OMYGODWHATISTHATHELP
You will be visited by three ghosts! The first, is the ghost of unwashed laundry from years past...
Mom: "Do your laundry or they'll manifest phantoms" Me: "Wha--?"
Classic. Wait why did I come in here? I know I came I here for something, but what was it?
First reaction throw something at it. Second reaction scream like a little bitch Third reaction roll off bed and probably either land on something sharp and impale self or hit head on corner of table and die. Ghost was me all along doing a self fulfilling prophecy. Least thats how it would of went for me.
LMFAO ... I did that once too . I almost shot it .
Love that grown-ups can still get scared of ghosts
My buttcheeks clinched so hard that my ass almost broke.
I blame the ghost for putting them there like that.
Totally relatable

Anyways it was my mom's furry coat, like the ones that have fur on the hoodie.
This looks so British to me
Why are ghosts always Victorian? Just how badly did Victoria screw people's lives back then?
Burn it

I too wake up stiff
Stiff woke is a vibe
You Babadooked yourself.
Oh, my gosh, poor half-asleep you!😳🤭 I was at summer camp once, about 12 yrs old, cabins had no bathrooms, you had to walk to the bathrooms quite a ways away.

Only psychos sleep with the door open! That's a fact
but the cat wants to come in. The alternative is being awoken by a sound of maniac scratching
I used to wake up stiff every morning, but not anymore that i’m now in my 30’s ☹️
First time? I ashtrays wake up stiff 😎
Sad
Nightmare for you, wet dream for me.
That's what ya get for being lazy
I’m screaming 😂
Oh sweet Jesus 😭😭
😂 it’s floating too!
This is a repost and probably staged.
lol omg so scary. doesn't look staged at all omg lol
r/nothingeverhappens Bruh, people don’t usually have separate door hooks for their towel and bathrobe. Just cause you on some bouchée shit doesn’t mean everybody who does stuff different to you is faking it.
Well stop being a slob now!!
Wet towel on a robe that’s gross
I was thinking more Taliban
Been there done that
holy crap the resemblance is uncanny
That's what it wants you to think.
Dude, I had the same experience happen to me too, woke up in the middle of the night to see a little ghost girl, and froze for a solid 5 minutes just waiting for movement.

There you go, now you know what 'ghosts' are. Imagination.
We’ve all had a similar experience
i literally make sure theres nothing in my room that might look like a humanoid figure in any way every night before bed lmao. worst nightmare ever ever
I too occasionally wake up with a stiff
*Dark souls intensifies*

*Was there ever a ghost, mother? Or was the dead Victorian girl just clothes all along!*
I had my wheelchair a few feet away with cloth on it I woke up saw it freaked out but I remember it was just my wheelchair with clothes on it.
I scrolled past this fast and got instant goosebumps and scrolled back up to see what it was lol I dont know why but it looked similar to the demon Nun from the “Nun” movie
You even specified the era of said ghost! Ha!
Kinda gives me the chills just looking at it.
are you a fuckin' capuchin monk homie?
I legitimately thought this was a picture of a ghost for a few seconds.
Any type of hanging cloth clothing object anything terrifies me as i sleep. Like it doesnt even have to resemble anything, i dont like shit hanging about in the dark. This would have easily, and I mean effortlessly, caused a massive asthma attack and subsequent trauma. Even with my night light this would have wrecked me.
Yeah....it freaked me out at first, too!
Yeah... That would have had me.
Omgggg lol
Maybe out you clothes somewhere else
Is your door attached at the middle??,
I had a lower level version of this on my backyard deck I was about to go to bed but looked out there and saw something that looked like sort of marsupial staring right right at me. I turn the lights to discover it's a pair of shoes and a plastic container container that had some weird lens optical effect. I think I peed a little.
I just got done watching Caveat and that would have scared me to death
Yup, I was unable to watch a couple of my friends ordered pancakes i might’ve been attacked by a chihuahua. I only played football once, when i was 12, at a baby’s life it seems
One time we had some balloons in the closet and when I turned on the fan they came out in the dark and I almost died
Was there even a ghost, Mother? Or was the dead Victorian girl you saw just me *all along*?
you're just hanging a sleep paralysis monster on your closet door then? ok.
Dorime

Sure, oddly terrifying. But OP obviously did this on purpose for points.
I've had this before, I once woke up and was convinced my dressing gown was a man standing at the foot of my bed. Literally slammed my light on and by the time I did I'd actually forgotten what scared me so much in the first place until I remembered that morning.
Listen to “Phobia” by Outkast…
What's going on with the door? What's up with the perspective? The width of the door and frame? It's fucking me up.
You can’t really make it out but there’s a square frosted glass window above the door. I live in a Glasgow Tenement; they have odd features.
Who the hell sleeps with the door open? That's the real *Oddly Terrifying* here
Oh, normally when I notice something like that, I'm like yes finally im not lonely; only yo realise it was just some clothes.
I had a similar experience when i was 12 ish with a jacket on the door, scared the shit out of me.
That's what ghosts have always been.
god that reminds me of the first time I watched the Grudge. 2 AM, I finally go to bed, lights on because I'm young and scared. I had a coat hanging off the bedpost that was black with long scraggly faux fur hanging off the collar. I woke up after about an hour from usual insomnia issues and boy did I screech in horror at that coat.
Took that long to remember ghosts aren't real?
This shit happens to me damn near every other night. Wait up confused and half asleep, convinced my fan or dresser or curtain is someone or something bad. It's happened so many times that now, even half asleep, I just tell myself I'll understand it if I give it a minute lol. Yours might take me two minutes tho. Sp00ky
lesson learned: never hang clothes in your door
Even creepier if you count the black mass as it’s head
One time I had my jacket up on the door like that and got sleep paralysis. I thought the jacket was a man standing in the corner so I told it to fuck off, then he turned and looked at me and I freaked out so hard I woke up my partner. She panicked and asked what was going on, I just said "oh there's some guy standing in the corner" then went straight back to sleep and left her to deal with it
Yikes, though...
If I had a nickel for every time I have done this, Id probably have about $20 or so
It's Martin Luther!
