I saw an alien once.
What is the creepiest thing to have ever happened to you?

This was probably only creepy because I was young, camping in a strange country with mostly strangers, but when I was 12 I went to Germany for 2 weeks with the Army Cadets.
We spent 5 days camping, 2 lads per tent in the middle of a pitch black field in rural Germany. On the first night I was woken up by the sound of whistling and then when I looked behind me, there appeared to be a hand held against the side of the tent. I turned to wake up my friend and then when I turned back again it was gone, but I never heard anyone moving - It was during the summer and the grass was very dry. When you walked on it, it made an audible crunch.
I eventually got back to sleep. In the morning I looked outside the tent and there was a set of footprints in the grass next to the tent but none walking to or from that particular set of footprints, which looked like trainer prints. All of us, including the staff were wearing boots.
Still don't know if there was an actual person standing outside my tent that night, but it really freaked me out at the time.

Unsure on creepy but all the downlighter lights flickered in my bathroom earlier and i have a mirror here with 2 lamps on front (Bayonet type lamps hook into it) both went flying out towards my direction as i was sat on the toilet which shouldn't really be able to happen and i have no explanation for it still. Neither lamp works now but neither are broken and the mirror lights wasn't even turned on. Safe to say its something unusual i could maybe explain one being loose but both and no visible damage to the latch bits they hold onto or the actual prongs which hold it onto the latch in the lamp holder did have me somewhat lucky i was on the toilet as i was pooing bricks alright
The scariest part of this story will be the electrician's bill.
I awoke once to see a dark face with bright eyes directly in my face, I yelled at it to Gtfo and then it flew through the door... what's worse is it being windy that day and the door has an odd banging noise due to drafts. Just as the figure went through the door the door made a banging sound.
Wife asked if I was ok and told me that I was convulsing and screaming in my sleep, also she had some type of dream where she couldn't breath.
I think it was a spirit sacking the life from me in my sleep, tried it with the wife and then me
The entire day following this event was horrid, I felt depleted, angry at everyone and depressed about my life...
been fine since though.

Either that or sleep paralysis...

Bumping for more interesting stories of possible sleep paralysis/paranormal activity
Bumping but with no follow up story? Son, I am disappoint. Allow me. This is 100% true. And really long(that's what she said).
When it gets to about 10.30 in my house we hear all sorts of noises. For the most part this is people going to sleep in the houses next to us either side, but sometimes it can be quite difficult to tell where the sounds are coming from and this can make you feel quite uncomfortable.
One night, as I was trying to get to sleep(the girlfriend was already snoring by this point) something happened. It began with the standard restlessness from the neighbours up and down their stairs etc (that always sounds like it's coming from our stairs) but the sounds were somehow different. The creaking stairs were being climbed multiple times, and then apparently descended again. The steps came with a peculiar kind of urgency that I'd never heard before.
And then, out of nowhere I hear a voice and I freeze, I was sure it was coming from inside the house. This was followed by movement that seemed to come from my kitchen. Another whisper. I couldn't move but, at the same time, I had to know what was going on.
After what seemed like an eternity I summoned up the courage to go down and have a look. I hadn't heard anything in a whiles so I get up, slowly, being as quiet as I can.
I turn EVERY single light on as I go but, as expected, I get downstairs and there is nothing. All the doors/ windows are locked etc. After waiting for the next noise, still very nervous, adrenaline pumping, for the longest few minutes of my life I had to concede that there was nothing here. Reluctantly, I went back upstairs.
Then the strangest thing happened. As I got back into the bedroom I noticed that my slippers were arranged in a straight line(ie. one in front of the other and not side by side) and not as I thought I'd left them. So I went over and straightened them out, feeling considerably more relaxed by this point. But then, out of nowhere, I heard a loud crashing noise and I swung round to see that one of the shelves of the bookcase closest to the door had fallen through onto the floor along with it's contents.
Naturally, this woke the girlfriend and we put the lights on and put the shelf back up and went back to bed. The girlfriend was shocked by it, but more interested in getting back to sleep. But I just couldn't after that.
The bookcase shelves were on pegs and not screwed into the side of the bookcase but still, this didn't make any sense.
And what was even stranger was, when I woke up my slippers were once again arranged in a line and not side by side.
Tl;dr: Houzez is scawee

So when can I visit to set up the night vision cameras?
You keep saying you'll come and visit the new place
I'm surprised you want to now

Just sayin'

I once saw the Baby Jebus in a piece of toast.
