Continue at your peril, my name is Danny Burke and this is the Top 10 Scary Night Shift Stories
- Part 2.
Starting off at number 10 now we have The Slammer.
This one comes from a Reddit user who said he used to work as a security guard.
There were abandoned jail cells in the basements that havent been used in years.
Part of his duties involved patrolling for potential squatters.
One night, it was only his second time patrolling alone and things started.
He went down to the old prison cell - a long narrow hallway lined by cells on both sides.
The hallway was always lit by light bulbs hanging from the ceiling.
He was walking past the 4th column of cells when suddenly, the lights went out.
He turned his flashlight on and walked back towards the light switch.
Just as he was about to turn them back on the lights flickered on again.
He decided to get out of there.
He walked quickly past the cells, glancing at them to check.
About halfway down, the lights went off again and instantly he heard 2 cell doors slam in
the darkness.
He ran with his flashlight on straight towards the other end of the hallway, reached the
end and ran up to his work station.
He then called his supervisor and asked him if there were any electrical issues that had
been reported - he said no.
He stayed inside his workstation - terrified of what was lurking below him the abandoned
jail cells …
Moving on to number 9 we have The Body.
This one comes from Reddit user Yaxax.
He said that his very first job was running the cloakroom in a nightclub.
Over the road there was a mutli storey car park.
One night, around 1 AM, he found himself zoning out and staring at the car park when he noticed
a body fall from the top and then plunge below his vision.
He jolted up and ran outside to the balcony to look over, but there wasnt a body on the
floor.
He was creeped out but thought it must have just been his imagination.
However, it kept happening.
At least once a week, always around 1 AM, he would see a body fall limply from the top
of the car park and disappear without a trace.
It happened so much that he could remember what the body looked like, what they were
wearing, everything.
Whenever he mentioned it to the other staff thought, they said theyd never heard anything
about it.
He watched the CCTV but the cameras couldn't see anything.
He looked up information to see if anyone had died there, but found nothing.
The unknown failling body remains an unsolved mystery …
Next up at number 8 we have The Transporter.
This one comes from a Reddit user who said he used to work as a transporter in a hospital.
During his time there, they were moving from their old creepy hospital into a new facility.
The old building was being gradually shit down - the east wing had already closed.
One night, he was getting a patient from the west wing.
He saw a small group of nurses who used to work in the east wing - they looked shaken.
When he checked on them, they said they had just been in the East Wing to give it one
last look over, for old times sake.
When they were there - one of the phones started ringing.
A nurse answered it.
She said there was a womans voice on the other end that sounded confused.
-How can I help you?- asked the nurse -Where am I?- came the reply- -This is a hospital.
Are you a patient here?- replied the nurse?
-Oh, OK- came the reply - the phone line went dead.
The nurse looked at the screen on the phone to see where the call had come from - it had
come from the room right next to the nurses station they were at.
By this point, the rooms had all been cleared out, including the phones.
They looked into the room, nobody was there.
They looked at each other in horror and then ran for the elevator.
They had gone there for old times sake, but now they were eager to get out of there forever
...
At number 7 now we have The Angels.
This one comes from Reddit user dkm2004.
He said that just after he graduated high school, he started working at a truck stop
a few miles outside of his town.
He usually worked evenings but had to take a night shift one night.
At 3 AM, he was struggling to stay awake when a car pulled into the parking lot and parked
up.
There was a guy in the drivers seat who as crying and a woman in the passenger seat just
staring straight, not moving, showing no emotion at all.
They sat there like that for an hour.
Then, the guy got out of the car and entered the truck stop.
He grabbed a few random items and put them on the counter.
The whole time he kept looking around as if he was checking for other people.
There was nobody but the two of them though.
He then stopped looking around and stared right into the cashiers eyes.
The tears stopped flowing.
In a low voice, he said -Its quiet out here, isnt it?
So quiet you can almost hear the angels singing- … he left the store and got into the car,
the girl had still not moved an inch.
What do you guys make of that one?
Moving on to number 6 we have The Presidents Chair.
This one comes from Reddit user Guh Graves who worked as security at a small companys
headquarters in New York.
He was working from midnight to 6 AM by himself.
One night, one of the employees had actually stayed in the building after hours.
The employee hadnt been spotted before everyone left so he didnt know there was someone there.
He noticed a movement on one of the screens and then again a few minutes later.
Perhaps he was imagining things.
He headed out to do a sweep.
He entered a large hallway and saw a flash of movement at the end of it.
Now he was freaked out.
He stood frozen for a minute, looking into the darkness.
Then, he heard a single, loud gunshot echo out from down the hallway.
He walked down to investigate and when he reached the end, he saw that the light in
the Presidents office was still on.
He slowly approached the door and creaked it open - what he saw has haunted him ever
since.
The man had taken a seat in the presidents chair and shot himself in the head with a
pistol, splattering blood and brains all over the floor and wall.
It turns out he was having probelms at home and hated his boss, so he decided to end his
life in his office.
The security guard threw up a few times and called the police.
He said he still has nightmares about it sometimes …
At number 5 now we have The Kids.
This one comes from Reddit user work nerd 7623.
She said she works at a crisis nursery which is a facility for emergency care for children
under the age of 7.
She used to work the nightshift.
Her nursery was named after a child that was beaten to death by one of their parents in
the hope that it would prevent other children from being beaten by the adults.
The nursery was also said to be haunted, she had been told the story of a kids spirit that
runs around at night.
It didnt really bother her.
One night, a kid got up to go the bathroom.
One of her co workers helped the kid back to bed and returned to the room they were
all sitting in.
Soon after, someone heard the water running in the bathrrom - they checked and found that
it was on.
The coworker swore that it was off when she left.
That was weird, they thought.
Her coworkers told her that one of the reasons that everyone thinks the nursery is haunted
is that many people have reported different children asking about -that kid- … the children
always say things like -Why doesnt that kid have to go to bed?- while they point at nothing.
A few weeks later, she was watching over the kids as they slept.
She was reading her book when all of a sudden, one of the youngest kids sat bolt upright
in bed and said -Hey, how come they arent asleep?
Why do they get to play?
I want to play too!- … they continued to point at a wall, nothing was there.
She was instantly hit by shivers.
She felt so scared she almost screamed.
Ever since that night, she has refused to be in that room alone …
Moving on to number 4 we have The Accident.
This one comes from Reddit user Rud07.
She said she used work the night shift at a hotel front desk.
She had seen everything, drunks, angry people, the mentally unstable - she thought she was
prepared for any sight.
One night, the hotel was hosting a college baseball team.
The team came back around 11 and went up to their rooms and to bed - no big deal, she
thought.
Then, around 1am, the coaches came back - they were drunk.
They went up to their rooms and that was the last she heard for an hour.
While she was setting up for breakfast, she heard the elevator ding around 2 or 3 AM.
Out of the elevator burst one of the coaches, running straight out the front door.
After a moment, he runs back inside shouting -He fell!
He fell- … she ran outside, already dialing for the police, and saw one of the coaches
lying on the ground.
He was face down in a huge puddle of blood.
In a daze, she put him in the rescue position so he wouldnt choke on his own blood.
The paramedics got there and as they were loading him up, one them wiped his head to
reveal a split that was so wide and so deep, she actually saw his brain.
He was taken to hospital and lived.
She got a raise the next day, but the sight has never quite left her …
Next up at number 3 we have Xpected.
He said that he works at a hospital overnight.
One patient claimed to be Jesus, he clawed is eyes right out and ate them before being
restrained - these were the kid of patients he would have to deal with.
Many employees claimed the hospital was haunted, he didnt believe them until a few things happened.
The 4th floor was closed, it used to be a baby ward though.
One night, he heard a baby crying coming from there.
He called security but they found no baby.
Another night, he was cleaning two rooms after patients left.
The rooms were connected and there was one exit.
He cleaned the first room, left for 10 minutes, got his supplies and went back to the other.
He saw a little old lady in a chair hunched over.
He stared at her for a few seconds, thinking that it was strange they had put a patient
in there already.
Two nurses asked if he was the one who had been sitting in the chair.
They got scared when he said that no, it wasnt him, it was an old lady.
When they went back to check, the room was empty.
She had disappeared.
He would have seen her if she walked passed him.
Nobody on that floor fit the description of her - except for the old lady who had died
in the room 4 hours before he started his shift …
Next up at number 2 we have The Hill.
This one comes from Reddit user Dirty Money.
He said he used to work as a night watchman on a large property.
It wasnt a big building but the land around it was - about 50 acres and very secluded.
He was always alone.
There was also a long gated driveway.
One night, he started his rounds by walking out of the front door.
The area was lit up.
As soon as he locked the door behing him and took a step, he heard a womans voice scream
-OH MY GOD SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME!- at the end of the driveway.
It was faint and and he took five running steps into the driveway, skidded to a stop
and then ran back inside to call the police.
They came with multiple police cars and even a helicopter - they found nothing.
To this day he thinks it was people out in the woods who were trying to lure him out
of the secluded house, and rob him or the house, or do something even worse to him …
And finally at number 1 we have The Ghost Ship.
This one comes from Reddit user Inquisitive About You.
He said he used to be a Ship Officer on a container ship many years ago, sailing in
the Indian Ocean.
On night shift, an object showed on the radar on a collision course with their ship.
It was a clear night on a calm sea and an almost full moon.
They looked out to get a visual confirmation but saw nothing.
After waiting for almost an hour, the radar indicated that the mystery ship was still
on a collision cause with them.
The captain was called.
He and the other seasoned officers couldn't figure out what was going on.
To be better safe than sorry, the captain decided to perform an evasive maneuver.
The other ship changed course together with them and was back on a collision cause.
Both of their radars showed the ship - it even had its own name and call sign.
When the ship got closer it became very clear there was nothing above the water.
Though it was probably a radar malfunction, the captain ordered his crew to ready the
lifeboats and prepare to deploy on impact.
The dot on the radar collided with them and disappeared - nothing happened.
In the next harbour, the radars were checked thoroughly by experts who said that they were
fine - whatever showed up on the radar should have been there in real life.
What do you guys think the explanation is?
Alright guys, how was that?
I hope youre not watching this alone and at night - I especially hope youre not watching
this while working a night shift.
Let me know if you want more - there are so many good ones out there - thanks for watching
