People Reveal the Strangest Things That Ever Happened to Them

#58: Not Creepy, Just a Creep

A woman noticed her neighbor staring at her from his window. At first, she assumed it was a quick glance—until she realized he hadn’t moved for over fifteen minutes. She locked eyes with him, expecting him to turn away in embarrassment. But he didn’t. He just stood there, watching, completely still.

While not exactly paranormal, the experience rattled her. The eerie persistence of his gaze, the refusal to look away, made it feel more like something from a horror movie than real life. Unfortunately, creepy neighbors are all too common. While this story lacks a ghost, it doesn’t lack fear. Sometimes, it’s not spirits that haunt us—but people.
