I was employed as a driver for nine years. I drove six days a week and often at night in rural mostly unlit areas between small towns. I know weird things happen on the road, I can't explain them and I don't miss the job at all. That's all I was thinking during this video. I don't miss it at all.
You have any kind of examples?
I saw a bunch of shadow people - and shadow animals - on hwy. 2, 20 mi. out of Havre, Montana, while I was driving east at night. They were all crossing the hwy, north to south.
@Adrumpf Twittler I would say drive that road if you can, at night. Shadow ppl are all black & it's at night, so it would be hard to get a pic of them. You see something moving in the dark, then in your headlights you see the shapes of people. One was wearing a hat & a cat was walking to his right. There's nothing sinister about them. I suppose they're just spirits. If you're about to run into one with your car, they disappear. There was abt 2 dozen ppl & animals, all walking together.
@@SweetUniverse At least, it's not one of those skinwalkers or bruhas.
@Disco Sucks Disco's excellent...
The barking man animation is the stuff of nightmares, easily the scariest animation on this channel
Thank god, he didn't zoom its face.
This is the only episode of BTS I will never rewatch because of the Barking Man story. Here come the nightmares.
I know, right?
Has a very Courage the Cowardly Dog vibe.
I've seen just as creepy on here, but, this definitely is one of the best done and creepiest !
I couldn't help but think of skinwalkers for the second story. That part of the country is where the legends arises out of.
The area north of Vegas gives off a spooky vibe at night especially near Beaty and a mountain pass out of Death Valley known as Hells Gate. A few years ago my family went to Death Valley on a side trip from Vegas, in the late afternoon we left the valley through Hell's Gate and couldn't shake the feeling that we were being watched.
@@no2party A lot of people buried around there too thanks to Vegas and the mob, whole place radiates supernatural
@@littlebearoverlook yeah when we left Beaty after getting gas just after dark I just kept thinking to myself "please God don't let us have another tire blowout" it's creepy as fuck in that area at night.
It was Michael Winslow! What a troll!
First thing that came to my mind when I saw it. It's around the geographical area where the natives believe skinwalkers roam.
The story about the man in the desert really creeped me out.
Woof woof
Me too, what did he want?
@@MsLJK85 Damned if I know, and I have a feeling it's better we don't EVER find the answer! 😱😱😱
@@MsLJK85 He wanted to cuddle up with the driver, of course.
Oh one hand, 99% of these cases that happen when people are going to sleep are caused by sleep paralysis. You either think that you was about to sleep but woke up, or you straight up hallucinate the whole thing while sleepwalking around.
On the other hand, fuuuuuuck that.
It really sounds like sleep paralysis though.
The MIB story makes me want a "Bedtime stories revisited" series, where you go back to any old topics that may warrant it and go into additional stories just like story 3
MIB story was not a highway story but a delivery story.
@@Blitzo2876 sometimes, inexplicably, at the end or exit of a highway, you find ... a destination.
Yeah, I’d watch that.
The barking man segment brought back a memory from my distant past...
Had an uncle who did two tours in Viet Nam; US Army, 101st Division, Screaming Eagle. Tough, no-nonsense SOB. Anyway, he eventually became a truck driver for a then-striving company, United Parcel Service (UPS). He was not a delivery driver, but rather a long haul 18-wheeler driver between Dallas, TX, and Houston, TX. As this was a constantly running route, there was no 'shift' concept. Haul runs were perpetual, day and night.
One night on the way back from Houston on Interstate 45 North, he decided to take a short sleep break, as many truckers do. Instead of stopping at a rest stop or one of the truck stops along the highway, he knew of an empty, undeveloped area along Exit 102 (somewhere between Houston and Huntsville). He parked and shut down his rig, and was about to slip into the sleep compartment. At that moment, he claimed that the hairs on his forearms and back of the neck stood on end, and for some reason had a compelling feeling to look out the window. In the near distance, he saw a procession of about a dozen people of varying ages walking by, at an acute angle from his vantage point. He said that he noticed that there were two male adults, two female adults, and what appeared to be children of different ages, both boys and girls. They were dressed in clothing that appeared dated to him (men wearing suits and hats, and ladies wearing long dresses and bonnets). He noticed a boy wearing 'high water' overalls (pant legs way too short). None seemed to notice my uncle or his rig. Since they were at a distance, he could not hear them, but he could see that one man was gesticulating with his hands, and the ladies nodding in agreement. Eventually, they all walked out of view.
My uncle said that he thought it odd that a group of people be walking in the dead of night, in the middle of nowhere. He had this funny feeling that something was not right, but decided to brush it off as fatigue, so he tried to fumble his way into the sleeping compartment, having difficulty since it was pitch black and he could not see anything. That's when it hit him that it there had to be some kind of light reflecting off these people to be able to see them, yet there was none; no moon, no street lights, no town lights, etc. His fatigue went away, and he decided to resume his route immediately.
[Edit: corrected the exit number]
Wow..Creepy!
Do you happen to know where exactly this area is? Perhaps you can look up the history about the surrounding area and find out if anything out of the ordinary happened there.
@@rsuriyop Yes. I know exactly where this area is. I have traveled between Dallas and Houston many times as I grew older. I even stopped at that exact area on a couple of occasions out of curiosity; seems very innocuous.
About 20 miles north on I-45, you will go right through Huntsville, Texas, where you will also see the Texas State Penitentiary grounds (correcting souls since 1849, many permanently, to this day).
About 20 miles south, you will drive through the next major town, which is Conroe, Texas. Believe it or not, used to be a major lumber capital.
Other than that, you're pretty much in the thicket of the Sam Houston National Forrest.
I remember being around the same area when I was little. We were driving to visit my grandparents and stopped to let the dog out for a bit. While we were on the side of the road, I felt like there was static in the air and our dog started freaking out. Dad started yelling at everyone to get back in the car and even told my mom "shut up and do what I say" when she asked why. Then we peeled out of there and went flying back down the road.
My dad did some crazy stuff in the Army in the 80s and worked as a paramedic for a while so there wasn't a lot that could rattle him. He told us kids that there was a man who told us to leave and that's why we left so fast. When I was older, I asked him about it and he said that right when the static feeling came a man and a woman walked out of the woods in old timey clothes and my dad just decided that nothing good was about to happen so he got us out of there.
You’re good at story tell man. Would be lying if i said it didnt give me chills
MIBs being corpses is a new one. That's why you guys are the best!
*looking at anyone in a fedora* are you a reanimated corpse?
That or the Teamsters version of pranking Dwight again!
Maybe it is a look that they feel can cover up a lot of their skin, while looking professional and intimidating as well.
@dungoist The bad kind of hipster ☝️
@eddy bliss what is c2c?
2 and 3 got me. If I was the truck driver, I'd have assumed that the deranged, barking man-thing had either slipped under the truck or climbed on top of it.
I think the man was a Skinwalker!
He's lucky that the guy didn't suddenly appear in front of him, or inside the truck when he turned to get his phone! 😱😱😱
This. People tend to look for things horizontally (that’s why most screens are of a landscape layout too), but don’t normally look below, and especially upwards.
That happened to someone I know.
@@jeffreyskoritowski4114 What happened?
My father was also a truck driver at one point.
He'd been staying awake for nearly 60 hours with the use of caffeine to meet a delivery deadline somewhere in Florida, and was currently on the interstate in Georgia. He said that at some point, an "abomination" crawled it's way onto roadway. Long enough to take up two lanes but not very tall, he said it had the body and legs of a dog, but the tail, head, and panted with the tongue of an anteater.
He then pulled off at the next exit and decided he needed some sleep.
I can well believe it as sleep deprivation can cause some disturbing mental effects. Cafeine in quantity doesn't help, either. Thanks for sharing, bud.
Dogmen!
@@doncarlton4858 you know whatsup!!
Interesting, sleep deprivation might be a plausible explanation for these truck driver stories.
"Caffeine". Yeah, that's the ticket...
Never heard about using corpses for MIBs. That is wicked spooky.
These stories were all new to me and very intriguing. Thank you for these and be well.
It’s widely speculated that the MIB are some type of machine like an android, it’s possible that whoever or whatever takes the bodies of the deceased and turns them into these machines.
At worst, it coUld’ve actually been some nutter whom had taxidermy’d people he killed, and dressed their corpses to look like MIBs.
It's a theme that's used in Charles Stross' The Laundry Files, for instance.
with MIBs, BEKs & other entities, you'll often hear of them wearing outdated/ ill-fitting clothes that look dirty & like they've been repaired many times. a macabre idea, but I wonder if they keep the clothing from their victims, & reissue it to their corpse-drones, hoping it makes them blend in w/ "humans" better. they have a rudimentary enough understanding of humans to know that we need to wear clothes in society, but things like laundromats or buying new clothes are too alien of concepts for them to deal w/, & taking clothes off the dead is to them the most logical/ easiest way to obtain them.
The whole using dead bodies thing reminds me of Dark City
I’m I the only one confused by the idea of the men in black using UPS
Given the stories of them being perplexed by basic things like utensils, I suspect confusion is par for the course.
Yeah I cannot find myself able to believe that any facility directly associated with men in black would have anything, no matter how insignificant, delivered by outside companies.
Yes.
I think it was the best story he could come up with to explain to his wife how he got fired from a job he just landed lol
I wouldn't be surprised if the government uses every day shipping and delivery companies. Whens the last time anybody took a second look at a delivery person?
That animated face of the man barking was legit spooky.
Preaching to the choir, my friend.
I did the mistake that I rlly listen an watched to this in bed^^ had no nightmares about that face, but damn did this got me by surprise and rolled down my spine xD after that I had to listen to a gaming podcast to get it out of my head. I am now looking at it at daylight a 2nd time... so there is that^^
@@Hokuhikene I was listening and watching this too just before I went to sleep so I was in my as well. Super creepy :D
Thanks for the spoiler, first visible comment.
@@gabgarcia9935 Thanks for reading the comments first before you watch the clip.
I don't know about the rest of y'all, but that bit with the guy barking scared the daylight out of me.
Yesss! Me 2! 😰 can u imagine seeing that?
@@crystaldelosreyes5775 It was probably just a guy from vegas off his nut on crystal meth
Tell me about it! Had it been me instead of the delivery driver, I would have passed the fuck out right there. 😥😥
You'll have to forgive me but I laughed uncontrollably when hearing that. Too many childhood experiences of classmates copying dogs barking and being silly, to take seriously or fearfully.
Yesss! And my first instinct "He crawled under truck!!!" He's on the roof!!!"
Anything that has to do with me driving past the desert atnight creeps me out
Yup, me too. One can never know what's out there creeping around!
@e causey I haven't . What's the link ?
Omg I did it and stilll regret it to this day
US 95 and US 395 are some really strange roads. Given the weird things I've heard, and personally encountered on these roads I make it a note to never sleep in the rest stops on these routes. Combination of too dangerous and too creepy.
Would you mind sharing a story or two? Which states do those two highways run through (or which parts did you think were creepy)?
@@masonarcher2998 Boy, do I have many stories I could tell you. Just don’t believe the lie that the physical world is all there is, that the only things that exist are what we are able to see with our eyes... it’s just not true.
@@GreekOrthodox7 exactly, there's a lot out there that we cannot see with our eyes but it still does exist!
@@GreekOrthodox7 Tell me some pls I wanna know some
@@GreekOrthodox7 tell us! 😀
Last one was absolutely chilling. Never heard of MIBs being reanimated. For a second I thought story 2 was gonna be one I'd heard in a reddit compilation vid. Trucker had pulled into a rest stop in the middle of nowhere in Nevada. It was super dark and no other vehicles. Driver goes to sleep, but is woken up by pounding on the cab from both sides at different points in the night. In the morning he woke up and in the sunlight he saw the lot was right next to an old cemetary
DEFINITELY UNNERVING AND CREEPY! 😱😱😱
How did you comment this 6 MONTHS AGO?
How the freak did u comment 6 months ago ?!???
@@jadengarcia5086 I'm a patron
@@joshuas.686 This was a patroen exclusive video for a while
The last story freaked me out pretty much, don't know why, but something felt sincerely unnerving to me when I heard that one.
I'm gonna be seeing that barking man's face from story 2 in my nightmares now.
No kidding....I got serious goosebumps when that part happened 😳
@@stephensedlon8414 Me too. I had a cold chill.
I get chills just thinking about it!😳
I thought it was one of the least scary things I've ever seen or heard about honestly.
I take it you've never heard of Michael Winslow.
Me and brother were once driving through thick forest area near a national park. We crossed a car which seemed broken down with steam running out from hood and an old man inside the cabin. My brother, who was driving, went around a natural curve on road and halted. We got down to help the old guy. As we came round the corner, there was NO sign of the car nor old man. It was hardly less than a minute between us seeing the vehicle, stopping round the corner and walking back to help- but there was absolutely no one there! Spooked the hell out of us- we sort of jogged back looking over our shoulder; got in our car and sped off- checking rear mirror all the way. Happened in 2002 we still feel spooked when we go that way
The UFO in the first story got yeeted out of existence lol.
@formless777 Yeah, this sounds an awful lot like impish but harmless fae stories of old, right down to the disappearing when the fun is over.
@@Etherman7
If say aliens are real.. who's to say they don't have a sense of humor? I could definitely see humans playing jokes like this on others, now imagine if you had a UFO craft capable of super speeds, and shooting up into the air.. could see a human doing practical jokes like this because they're bored as shit, and nobody else around.. Why not aliens?
for me this story could be russian car tech working at its finest maybed one of the rear lights wandering with vibration and a broken rear boot hatch
@@thealt188 russian cars are notoriously bad at that so i wouldnt be too surprised if that was what happend
@@thealt188 they are similarly bad
The five men in black actually moved their eyes, that's beyond eerie.
This compilation story was pretty creepy. Especially the last two stories.
Yup especially the barking dog one. I am really creeped out right now as it is almost midnight and on top of that I am presently staying in a three storeyed house all alone. Crazy stuff lol.
@@jayant9578 three story house alone? Homie you got some iron nuts
@jayant9578 did you survive??
Creepy Guy: You will never come back here
Me: I completely okay with that
The MIB now remind me of the strangers from dark city
"They use our dead as vessels"
Bingo!
"He can tune!"
"I have to go my energy is running low"- after listening to the last story it explaines a lot about the MIBs.
also smearing the lipstick...wearing makeup to look for "lifelike"
You should do a series of these "on the road" stories. I'm sure there is no shortage of material to pull from! These were slick bro!
Road Trip Stories
I had never heard about the 'undead' connection with MIB's before, this is quite interesting
!
I think the barking man was a skinwalker, especially since it took place in Nevada.
I hadn't thought of that but I think you're right
Reminds me of that one skinwalker/wendigo horror story narrated by CZcamsrs such as Corpse Husband
What do skinwalkers want from people in general? was he going to attack the truck driver or just warn him off his territory, the way a barking dog would?
Man, I want to know what the actual natives (I'm not sure what specific people the are) think of Skinwalkers and Wendigos. All modern American legends with them in it seem warped and just plain wrong (like wendigo being were-deer or something). As far as I'm aware, the natives that believe in these creature prefer not to talk about them since it will bring them to you.
Or just a deranged lunatic
I GOTTA SAY, I THINK THIS WAS THE BEST SET OF STORIES YET !!!
I gotta say this comment got me hyped tf up!
@@carrielikethemovie1806
Me too!!
K
Just imagine being that delivery driver !!!
I'm on an X Files binge with my wife , and in my mind I just expect the guy that said "You will never come back here " ; to be the Ciagrette Smoking Man
Didn't he die of lung cancer?
ironically the actor who played CSM quit smoking in the 70's . On the show he smoked herbal cigarettes so he didn't fall off the wagon. Back in the day he must have puffed them like the charecter.
To answer your question , I actually don't know , but it wouldn't surprise me .
Edit : Figured out why I couldn't find cause of death.....its because he is still alive ......🙄😂
YASSSS! Love the X-Files
Thanks, I'm a truck driver in the U.S and now I don't want to sleep in any dark places out west. By the way my favorite places because it's so remote and quite.
Those "mannequins" look suspiciously like some statues of tall thin men depicted wearing hats and suits found in the University I studied. What I always found weird was that these same statues were always moved to random locations every few months. Maybe they're related to these guys?
Which university was that?
Weird
@Shade Crenshaw presumably it was when the video was uploaded as unlisted/private. They probably have been working on these Halloween videos all year.
@Shade Crenshaw the real bedtime story
Which university?
The animation is at an unreal level now. Is it strange though I find the 5 characters at the end oddly comical looking? They look like oddly thin Dinosaurs from a childrens cartoon. That Dog/Man trucker illustration was incredible.
I had one weird night driving experience myself.
On a road I'd driven many times before, probably about 11pm, with no street lights and no turns on this particular stretch of the road I saw two Headlights approach in the mirror but of course, had no reason to stare.
I glanced up one more time to check if they were gaining and yes, but not by a drastic degree. Something made me look again and it was probably the fact that the lights were gone.
We were both travelling at least 60, but within an instant between glance 2 & 3 there was no sign, and there was no turns or way a car could have taken one so completely as to be hidden entirely from me, so suddenly.
I like to think it was just another car.
Maybe it crashed?
@@More_Row
We can only hope
Maybe one of his fuses suddenly blew up?
@@LSD97123
I like this less 😑
Driver could've just went black out. Lights off and was following the trail of your tail lights. I've done this before and if you're in an extremely unlit area at the dead of night with barely any traffic and no moonlight: this is extremely dangerous.
The man/ dog barking got to me a bit. I remember recording a paranormal session and listened to the audio later. I'll never forget how creepy and weird the barking of one entity. It sounded like a dog but wasn't. It sounded part man. That one never left me.
Recorded a paranormal secession?
@@cds6334either recorded a seance or ritual or some sort of attempted contact during an active investigation, etc; hes most likely a paranormal investigator.
@@atuck5122 yes. I did it to contact my family. I made contact with them and unexpectedly, many others…
@@MM-ty6cu those probably weren't your family...
Threw me the hell off when the barking man started to move, that was super well done.
Gonna be honest though, that tiny little detail of the MIB got me worse. At first I thought I was just looking at mannequins, like the narration said, and then near the end I actually noticed the beady eyes moving. Chilling.
'We were worried that you might have seen something creepy, so we've set up this even creepier scene in order to assure ourselves that you didn't.'
The government really ought to spend less money on getting suits tailored for aliens and more on guard shacks where the UPS guy can drop stuff off without going through the gate.
CAN"T WAIT TO LISTEN! I love that I found this just 42 minutes after posting and already so many uplikes! I'm thumbs up number 958! You?
Same here. I arrived at exactly 41 minutes after it was posted too and I was "like" number 979. Bedtime Stories is very popular!
6667 lmao
As an Estonian the first story is a complete suprise to me... something simliar has happened to a person who I know.
When she was young she was supposed to get onto a bus to another city. Later at night they headed for the bus station. She had her little brother with her and they walked to the bus station at the late cold winter evening. When they got near the bus station there was not a single soul around and no cars either, but just about that time when they arrived to the bus station a cloud of bright yellowish light slowly took flight from behind a building that was further away. They did not even bother inspecting it, she grabbed her brothers arm and they both just ran away from scene...
Reminds me of the David Lynch movie “the Lost Highway”. Yah as someone who has driven from coast to coast using these long stretches of highway (and particularly at night) this definitely resonates!
Lost Highway is awesome. Good soundtrack too.
Had I been the trucker with the barking man? I wouldve said fetch and threw my torch. Immediately cranking my truck and getting down the road.
Fetch! LMFAO 😂😂😂😂
I may have said it before but this is one of only a few channels that gets a 👍 before I even watch the video.
Damn, things really escalated between the first and 2nd/3rd stories from "That's pretty creepy" to full on "Terrifying nightmare material", though I'm pretty skeptical of the 3rd story myself, because if we are to assume the UPS man is telling the truth about what he saw, then there is obviously something very secret going on, so why the hell did they just let him go?
Maybe too much evidence to make him disappear after visiting that location on the job? The real question is why have the skin machines in the same room? Normally when you see something top secret unauthorized you get taken into a room and debriefed/grilled. They don't have a model of what you may or may not have seen in the same room.
The skin machines could've at least been behind some two way glass in an interrogation room if they are really needed in the process of debriefing.
@@Mirokuofnite I heard MiBs rarely act logically. If they exist, they're apparently very weird and do things that they know will freak you out.
Or simply that they knew no one would believe him and were simply trying to intimidate him, so he would'nt do something there and then to cause trouble
@@Mirokuofnite Sometimes MiBs do things and WANT the stories to be told.
@@WildMorgan Yeah,for "supposedly highly intellectual beings", they're kinda a bunch of jerks towards us. Lighten up, guys,'else your amazing knowledge and gifts of wonder like the cure to Cancer's gonna get thrown back in your face with a "you just land here, swan about in silly costumes, either giving us orders or scaring us then give us the cure to cancer and expect us to say "Thanks,we'll forgive the fact you terrorised us and called us 'dumb apes'?! I don't know about ET phone home but you can sure as hell fuck off home!"
This is the best video in a while! Ive seen a car disappear from head on traffic and about 20m ahead of me on a dip
I just want to say...the scene with Jakob pulled over alongside the road is gorgeous. As much as I love the stories, I also love seeing the evolution of the art and the artist-I've been a lurker for years now, and the improvement in the art with the constant scenes are an awesome treat to watch. Keep up with the stories-I always love seeing what you guys bring to the table.
the barking man sounded like it would be extremely creepy. i don't even know how to classify that type of encounter.
i encounter that kind of demon couple of times before not visualy of course i heard wolf howling when i woke up middle of the night after i close my eyes i heard evil laughing (there are no wolfs in my country,i am living in cyprus) i had lot of encouters with demons mostly hearing them except one time i woke middle of the night i was face to face with midget he disappear in a second. İ had my biggest Scream in my life when i saw that .
CRACKHEADS
@@mevzat that sounds scary. there's been a few things happening at my current place... but nothing overly creepy.
I heard stories of track drivers in Spain, about waking up in the middle of the night and hearing a child cry. Apparently the rest area was next to a river where a school bus went down.
@@biriscocathat is sad and spooky actually.
I've witnessed the MIB exactly once. 2 of them years ago outside a mall I used to frequent that recently shuttered. I had heard rumors of saucers in the area the previous night, but I'd not seen them myself. But the description provided here is chillingly accurate. I'm 6'4, and these things had at least 6 inches on me, even at a distance, you could tell. I've never seen anything so gaunt and thin in my life, and their skin looked like it had been stretched to fit a frame it was never intended to sheathe. I saw them on my side of the street, pace towards me from far off, and quickly turn into the parking lot entrance to their left. After witnessing that and making note of their erratic movements, I put two and two together and left. I know better than to investigate those spooks...
As someone who spends all day out on the road both in the cities and out on the highway all I can say is, more like this! Keep these coming!
The last tale about MIB, I have heard from people years ago having simular encounters, they placed it near or around the Walter Reed. Nice work guys HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE 🎃🎃
Obviously fake story: no UPS driver would ever wait around for five minutes after the first bell ring. Hell, they barely stop to fling a 'You weren't home' notice in the vague direction of the mailbox.
the split second it takes for me to hear the doorbell is at least 5 minutes in UPS driver time
I know a few guys who drive "Buster Brown Package Cars". They run them very hard and the burnout rate is high.
This! FedEx too 😂😂🤣
One time UPS threw a package through the screen of my front door. It flew across the living room and slid almost right in front of my roommates bedroom. Lmao it turned out to be a package for him anyways. That's efficiency right there!!
As a former UPS man I can confirm. I'd have drop the boxes right inside the door and said cya. I got 200 stops today and that doesn't include pickups. I don't have time for your creepy shit.
Story #2 really creeped me out.
There really is something creepy about deserted roads at night. Next time your driving alone on a empty road, stop and cut off all lights and just sit there.
Finding an abandoned building along the road would be creepier
I used to be a delivery driver, often doing my shifts at past midnight on rural backroads. Nothing really paranormal happened, but I had a few weird animal encounters.
The barking man animation is legit one of the scariest things I've ever seen
That barking man story was chilling and for some reason, I believe it. So much of the really bizarre stories I’ve heard have taken place in the desert; Utah, Nevada, New Mexico and parts of Arizona. Wtf is going on out there? It makes you wonder because while I suspect government involvement, people were afraid of areas in the Uintah basin long before there would have been any underground military bases or things like that. Great video and animation, love this channel.
About 3 years back I heard what sounded like a man snarling and growling and shouting words I couldn't understands near my bungalow at about 3 am on a Sunday morning, I put it down to a psychotic episode or bad trip, however this individual passed my house about 3 times at 5 minute intervals, at what sounded from his voice in the same direction. Its is possible to circle past my house using a couple of jitty's, to do this you would have to be running, but there was no thudding of foot fall that you usually hear when somebody is running at speed on the pavement. 🤷♂️
meh....
man that second story really creeped me out!! can u even imagine seeing that out your window?!? i would for sure faint seeing that!!
Just as I was about to look up horror stories you guys posted this! Also these kind of stories are what gives me so much paranoia when driving home late at light when there aren't any other cars (where I live 75% of roads are country ones and are barely travelled, especially now with COVID-19)
“Drive safely” sounds like a threat
I spent a large portion of my childhood and early adulthood in the deep South, surrounded by the remains of the great ante-bellum mansions and where old slave cabins still dotted the land and were inhabited by the poorer rural community members. The South is full of ghosts from the past and strange creatures that haunt graveyards and battle fields. One very late night/early morning my husband and I were travelling back home from a very drunken party about an hour away from home and hubby was snoring in the passenger seat while I opened windows and turned the radio up to keep me company and keep me alert. We switched off being the designated driver for our rare nights out, and I had drawn that straw that night. It was a road I had travelled after dark in the dead of night many times and I knew it well. On that night as I was zooming down the road (not thinking of the random deer that might jump in front of me) I saw a man standing very close to the road, right on the white line, staring out over an empty field, didn't even flinch when I drove by at about 85 mph. It wasn't anything I hadn't seen before, we had the occasional stumbling drunk wandering down the road in the dead of night, but this man had mist instead of legs. He was wearing a uniform I didn't recognize (being an avid student of the history of the American Civil War I knew it wasn't that) and just staring like he was seeing a nightmare he couldn't escape. I shook hubby awake and turned around to go back so he could tell me what the uniform was, but the man was no longer there. Hubby snidely offered to drive the rest of the way home since I was hallucinating. It's not that he didn't believe in ghosts, we actually lived in a haunted house and he grew up in one in New England. I guess he resented being shaken from his nap so a bit of snark was in order.
Tell me you're full of crap without telling me you're full of crap.
Can't wait to get home from work to see this. this is gonna be a good night
Story number two creeped me out. I don't know how or where you guys come up with this stuff. Absolutely the best stories.
What creeps me out is that your comment is dated '6 months ago', considering that this video was just posted on October 25, 2020. Perhaps I don't understand how comments are dated.
@@pintorpi333 That is creepy.
OMFG it indeed says 6 months ago, first time i see this kind of error, wtf
@@vampirecount3880 It is not referencing the time it was posted. See the little skeleton icon next to my name? It is a member badge. I've been a contributing member for 6 months. Mystery solved? I really don't want this keeping people up at night. You get cool emoji's too as a member. You all should join so you too can freak people out.
@@TheOriginalQueenBee oh i see, thanks for clarifying
There's something on the road tonight.
Don't turn the lights on or you're in for a fright.
If there is a light in the rear view,
Beware that a barking man may be near you.

The address on your parcel can't be right.
The residents inside are shambling.
Tell anyone and they'll think you're rambling.

This comment really should have gotten more attention.
For the MIB, the man should have made the UPS guy stare at some device which would flash and then he wont be able to recall what he had seen
If they did that, how would he be able to tell the story to us?
@Max Shame about the cover up. "Gas from Venus" my butt!
This week is gonna be fun!
For future videos, can I request the Order of Nine Angles, Dulce Base/underground lizard people, Sawney Bean and the Toronto Tunnel Monster?
I believe this may be my favorite of all your videos. All three stories creeped me out so much.
The barking man one honestly gave me chills!
That seemed a bit extreme, getting him laid off. Not his fault they were sloppy lol
Probably covering their own undead asses...I mean, where you gonna find work if you're a seven-foot-tall corpse?
The second one would make me need to change my shorts and scream out like the Dad on Fairly Odd Parents. 😆😉
Your profile picture made me realize people are going to be wearing Darth Vader masks in record numbers this Halloween.
@@joshuaadamstithakayoutubel2490 lol!! Full face protection when I am grinding metal😆
One of my favorite episodes.
Superb tales. The traveling light and the barking dog man were seriously scary. Encourages me to relate a few experiences of my own.
Yes please tell.
Please share them with us
Margy B/Sithira Weerasinghe I have a lot of dark experiences which are less frightening for being usually in the light of day. I will relate an encounter with a man in black who spoke to me in Shoreham five years ago a month or so before the fatal Hunter Jet crash.
All three of these stories suggest that if supernatural beings are real, at least half the time they're just messing with us. I mean, looked at from the entities' point of view, all three are basically pranks. Coming up behind a guy on the highway and opening his hatchback over and over? C'mon. That alien finally had to give it up and fly away because he was laughing too hard to aim the trunk-unlocking beam.
That the barking man was in a suit made it that much creepier.
AWESOME... Just the BEST show on youtube :-)
Whoa! This episode was awesome! That third story...whew! Fracking nuts!
Drop a like before listening because they never disappoint
That’s why I joined the club 👍
You right
I love the black and white illustrations. Nobody appreciates black and white art anymore.
Preaching to the choir mon frere
Except when they find a logic explanation xD
I learned a new ability in CZcams, I can right-click videos and set a loop on them. I like to do this with new episodes, so I can really catch everything about the stories. :) plus I get to hear the narrator's voice if I am doing other stuff at the time.
Man, I wish these videos were 1hr long. The narration, storytelling, illustration, etc. are top-notch!
Hello Bedtime Stories Team and Viewers !
I do not know if any one noticed that Jakob is driving POLISH car : Polonez FSO 1500. Considering this I'm not surprised that he wasn't able to run away ! Let's say : FSO was not famous from making sport cars ;) Great animation by the way
!
I wish you guys could do more of these. They are my favourite out of all the spooky and weird videos. Mr Ballen is up there to.
Some good stories love the animation thx
This was a good one!
Best thing to come home to after my extra long Sunday shifts.
Ok nice work on the man barking animation, that thing was creepy as hell! great video as always guys!!
Yes!! I have been waiting for this for so long!! Thank you Bedtime Stories!!
Great episode. Always leaves me wanting more!!
Great story I always wish they were longer.
As a nighttime truck driver, I can say that yes, strange things happen out on the road. A few weeks ago I was driving across Nebraska on I-80 headed west. I was about 20 miles east of York. There was freezing fog that was constant, but not super thick. Suddenly the sky lit up a blueish green for just a second behind me, then went dark again. It reminded me of one of the bright casino marquee signs that flash changing messages, but there was only dark farmland around. Wondering if I was just seeing things, I turned on the CB. Shortly after another driver keyed up and asked if anyone else saw the flash. Made my otherwise dull drive kinda interesting. Sure would like to find out what it was.
Sounds to me like a utility pole transformer blew somewhere out there.
i will never be watching this video again due to the absolutely horrific rendition of that dog man.
edit: I lost my appetite so fast after that last one 😬
Good stuff. I've done more than my fair share of nighttime driving over long distances and it can get Spooky.
Best Unsolved Mystery Channel of all time.
👻👻👻👽👽👽🛸🛸🛸💀💀💀
I was totally not expecting for it to be the man barking in that story ! SO CREEPY ! also have never heard of MIB using corpses....wtf !? GREAT STORIES !
Encountering us bigfoots on the highway late at night can be pretty horrifying
An unpopular bigfoot comment? I’ve found gold
How tall are you? How much do you weigh?
@@OMspot2277 7'2, about 600lbs
Hmmm....l must nm tell you that this is the very first time in my 61 years of life, that l have heard this story about ' the men inn black' wearing bodies of the dead !! Interesting.... Thanks for sharing this with us!;)
Yeah! The tall man barking actually gave me a chill. Had I been the trucker,I would have probably opened fire on it.Another great video.thx
Oooooh! That barking man one was a bit spooky. Great video this week as usual. Thank you.
Remember the part in "Close Encounters of the Third Kind", where the driver stopped at a train less RR X-ing, sees headlights in his rear view come up, stop right behind him, then go straight up? Many years ago, in the dead of winter, I was driving thru the night in an uninhabited area for work. I hadn't seen another vehicle for hours. On that stretch of highway seeing another car at night was just so unlikely that, when headlights suddenly appeared in the distance behind me, I have to admit, I was spooked. I recalled that scene from the movie for some reason....so I accelerated up to speeds I wouldn't have ever driven otherwise, just so they wouldn't catch up. They followed for some time, but then just as suddenly, they disappeared. Don't know - don't want to know, don't ever need to know.....
Still hoping for some Chupacabra, either both or one of the other, the US dog or the original
OH HELLS YES. Bedtime Stories, a rainy, night, a box of snacks, and creepy ass stories of empty highways and supernatural/paranormal experiences! Now I'm going to binge hardcore!
That Barking Man Is Straight Out Of Nightmare Man! 😳
