- We've already delved once into the dark and sinister world
of Reddit's Let's Not Meet community,
but it's a place filled with so many terrifying
and chilling encounters with real-life people
that we are far from done yet.
Let's dive in once again.

Here are The Creepiest Let's Not Meet Stories, Part Two.
Number 10 is Close Call.
In the early 2000s, Reddit user IAmJustYou
was visiting her mom in Arizona.
Driving along a lonely road to her destination at night,
she noticed that a red truck was following behind,
honking its horn and flashing its lights.
The Redditor thought that there was something wrong
with her vehicle, and that the truck driver was alerting her
to this, so she naively pulled over and got out of her car
to see if indeed there was something wrong with it.
The truck driver then pulled up next to her.
The driver began getting out, and at that point,
the Redditor felt something was very wrong.
She jumped in her car and sped off.
The truck followed her for a while,
and eventually stopped chasing her.
A few years later, she discovered that a serial killer
in a red truck had been using the same ploy
to capture his victims in that very same area.
Number nine is The Flight Attendant.
A few years ago, a Redditor
that we'll call Carrie was working as a flight attendant
during a sabbatical for college.
Being born and raised in Texas, she was delighted
to find out that she would be spending a few nights
in Austin waiting for her next flight.
She checked into a hotel downtown.
When she was finally in her own room,
she heard a knock at the door.
This was followed by a man on the other side claiming
that he had been sent by the front desk
to fix a problem with her bathroom.
Sensing something was off
about the way the man was being, she refused.
In response, he began hitting the door,
and demanded to be let in.
Soon, hotel security and the police turned up,
where the man grew even more violent before being arrested.
After this, they identified him as a known criminal
who had a history of committing extremely violent acts.
Number eight is The Easter Bunny.
Somewhere between 2008 and 2009,
three sisters were staying over
at their grandmother's house.
This in itself was not unusual.
It was Easter time, and they often had a sleepover there
around that same time each year.
During the night, they slept in a room
with a window looking out to the darkness nearby.
In the morning, the sisters claimed
to have seen the Easter Bunny at night through the window.
Most of the family believed this just wild imagination
or a joke, in any case, harmless.
However, years later, when the sisters all spoke about
that night, they realized that
what they had seen wasn't imaginary, but very real.
Even as adults, they could remember seeing
the strange figure at the window.
It was either someone dressed
as the Easter Bunny watching the children,
or some strange creature which was almost human.

Number seven is The Interview.
In February of 2019, an anonymous Redditor received
a phone call on their cell phone.
No number appeared on the phone's screen.
Hanging up without answering did not deter the caller.
The phone rang several times again and again.
Finally, the Redditor grew frustrated
and answered the phone.
A voice on the other end then said,
"I will tell you who this is when you tell me
"what color your toenails are painted."
Many similar calls occurred after this.
The caller then left cryptic messages
on the Redditor's Instagram account.
Following this, the calls continued,
and when the Redditor answered, it became clear
that whoever was on the other end
of the call knew very personal details.
Finally, the truth was revealed.
It was a man the Redditor had spoken with
about a job months earlier.
He had been gathering people's details
through fake interviews to stalk them.
Number six is Keeping Pets.
For some, living in a forest miles
from any neighbor brings peace and serenity.
For others, solitude soon turns into a nightmare.
Red had been living in such a place
for several years with his parents.
Outside of their home, they kept several large dogs
in a wire enclosure, enough to ward off any prowlers
who might want to intrude on them.
However, one night around three a.m.,
Red's dad received a call from a blocked number.
Answering it groggily, there was a man
on the line shouting angrily about keeping the dogs quiet.
A month later, the dogs escaped from their enclosure.
Someone had cut a large hole in the metal fence
to let them out.
Luckily, the dogs returned from the woods on their own,
but a stalker started leaving fresh meat for the dogs
by their enclosure, trying to entice them back
into the woods for who knows what purpose.
Number five is The Taxi Driver.
One Redditor shared the terrifying encounter
their grandmother had when she was younger.
The grandmother was 30 years old at the time,
and was heading to a business meeting in New York.
She asked her hotel to call for a cab,
and when she went outside, one was already waiting.
Naturally, she assumed it was her taxi.
She gave the driver an address, but after 15 minutes,
she began to worry, because they were driving
through an unfamiliar part of town.
The driver ignored any and all questions.
Sensing that her life was in danger,
she realized the back door was still open, and jumped out.
She then hid and saw the driver reverse,
and drive up and down the road looking for her.
When the police investigated the kidnapping,
they discovered that the cab driver's part
of a people trafficking ring mastermind
by the hotel where she had been staying.
Number four is The Furnace Room.
Yuno had a terrifying encounter
in her parents' home recently.
At the time, the family were having renovations done
to their home.
People were coming and going all the time,
but late one evening, when her father was in bed,
Yuno and her mother wondered
if someone else had stayed behind.
They heard noises downstairs and went down
to see if it was the family cat.
When Yuno entered the bottom floor,
where they have a furnace room, she realized
that the door to the furnace room was closed.
They usually never closed it in order
to let the cat go inside and catch mice.
Yuno soon realized the thump she heard was the door closing,
and someone was hiding in the furnace room.
She ran and got her dad, who phoned the police,
and when they arrived, they found the back door
to the house was open, and so was the furnace room door.
Number three is Call an Uber.
A Redditor named Violet was working
as a receptionist at a gym.
At the end of her shift one morning, she called an Uber.
Once in the car, the driver noticed Violet's uniform,
and so started asking her about her job at the gym.
However, the conversation took a strange and creepy turn.
The driver started suggesting to Violet
that she should flirt with her boss,
and then when he tried anything on,
threaten to sue him in order to get promoted.
Violet said she would never do anything like that,
and in response, the driver became angry at this
for some unknown reason.
He then started railing against all women,
and then started talking about how Violet
and other girls were there to be used by men.
Violet left the car and felt
that she had narrowly escaped a very dangerous
and disturbed person, one who was ramping up
to commit a crime against the women he hated.
Number two is A New Home.
Back in 2013, a 17-year-old girl moved
into a new house with her parents.
The landlord seemed like a nice old man,
and the house itself looked over a river
and was the ideal place that they had been looking for.
However, this perfect home was soon
to be the location of a terrifying encounter.
One day, the girl was in this house by herself,
when she heard footsteps downstairs.
She ran into her bedroom and barricaded the door,
and then phoned the police.
While she waited, she heard the footsteps walking
around her home, as well as furniture being moved around.
When the police arrived, they found no one else there,
but they did discover muddy footprints,
which stopped right outside the girl's bedroom door.
To this day, they suspect the landlord was the culprit,
using his own set of keys
when he knew the girl was by herself.
And number one was From Out of Nowhere.
When you spend a few days in a hotel,
you expect a clean room, and somewhere to sleep in safety.
What you don't expect to find is a strange woman going
through your things.
That's what happened to one Redditor from Florida.
After work, the Redditor, we'll call her Tonya,
returned with a coworker to her hotel room.
Inside, they heard someone rummaging through her things.
When they opened the door, a woman ran past them,
and disappeared down a stairwell.
The room had been ransacked.
When the police were called, they couldn't figure out
how the woman had gotten into the room without a key.
It was Tonya who solved the mystery herself.
When she removed the wall-mounted mirror in the bathroom,
she found that the woman had been hiding in a hole
behind it, waiting for Tonya and her friend
to leave, or worse, fall asleep.
