The night before my best friend, 16, vanished, she handed me $5 and said, “I owe you money.
Take this bill!” It felt random, but I put it in my jar without looking twice. 3 weeks later, I suddenly remembered and opened the jar.
When I examined the bill, my blood ran cold. She had marked it with a tiny handwritten message.
I looked closely to read it and I froze: there was a message in blue ink that said: “No matter what happens, you will stay in my heart.”
Chills ran down my spine. It could’ve been a simple note between friends, but the timing felt eerie.
I rushed to the police station to show them, but it didn’t go anywhere. It’s been 10 years, and though my friend was never found, not a single day goes by without me thinking about that bill, wondering if it held a deeper meaning.

- When I was a kid (about 13), we lived in a two-story house. I don’t remember what I was doing, but I heard my dad calling me from the room upstairs. I called back and received no answer. As I walked to the stairway, I happened to look out into our driveway and saw that the truck was gone and my dad wasn’t home.
I still don’t know what called for me that day, but it wasn’t my father.

- This wasn’t eerie; it was terrifying. I was 13 or 14 and had a couple of my baseball team friends over to spend the night. We kept hearing this thud. After a few more times, we decided to check it out. We grabbed three baseball bats from my laundry room, looked all over the entire house, and made sure it wasn’t my dad. The last room we checked, I looked out and saw a man trying to climb through the window. He saw us and got out of there as fast as he could. No sleep was had that night. © Gr***deNation / Reddit
- A few years ago, when I was in my early teens, I had a dream of a man on a beach flying a kite with two dogs running around him. A month later, while on holiday in France, we were on a beach, and I looked up to see the same man flying the same kite with the same dogs. Everything went cold, even though it was 30 degrees. It was one of the weirdest experiences ever.

- Our apartment has high ceilings, so we got an eight-foot, bright neon yellow pole to change lightbulbs. Last week, the pole disappeared.
Seriously, we cannot find an eight-foot, bright yellow pole in our tiny apartment. We are deeply disturbed by this. © rogueleaderr / Reddit
- I stayed in a hotel alone during a business trip. I hung a towel on my right hand as I proceeded to wash my face at the sink. When I finished, my left hand reached out to grab the towel, only to touch the skin. I wheeled around and saw that the towel was hung behind the door instead.

- I was visiting my grandfather’s grave for the first time, and as I approached it, a golden retriever appeared out of nowhere. He sat with me as I sat next to the grave, his head resting on my knee. As I was leaving, I turned around, and the dog had disappeared.
Rationally speaking, I know that it was just a dog, not connected to my grandfather at all, but part of me still likes to think that he came to say goodbye to me that day.
