Beyond Your Nightmares

I work the night shift at a small, rundown gas station on the edge of a highway that hardly sees any traffic past midnight. It’s a mediocre place at best, no security cameras, half the lights flickering like they’re dying, and a bathroom that no one in their right mind would use.Story by u/frequent-cat - I Work at a Gas Station.

It was almost Christmas. This year just went by so quickly and things were getting busy. I had to start buying presents for the family. I had finished shopping but I still needed to grab a present for my little cousin. She is not very hard to shop for since she’s four. She likes things like Peppa Pig and My Little Pony. She really liked. And I say liked for a reason. Max and Ruby....Music is by Myuu Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Recall your earliest childhood memory. How old were you in this memory? Four? Five? Developmental neuroscience tells us we do not form episodic memories before the age of three. Supposedly, memories from before this time are merely phantoms— errors in the brain’s memory formation process. It is important you know this. Bear with me, listener. I will not waste your time with endless foreplay. Here is my story… Story by u/neurologue - https://creepypasta.fandom.com/wiki/Why_Babies_Are_Born_Screaming Hosted on Acast.

It started with nostalgia. I hadn’t read horror in years. I dipped back into the NoSleep subreddit to see what people were writing now. I wish I hadn’t. Everything felt off. Then I found it.

Writing this for a personal sense of closure. I had an allergic reaction to medication in a hospital which caused a seizure that closed my windpipe. This happened late at night in a rural hospital and some protocols were not followed. So it took the nursing staff a few minutes to respond to what was happening. Luckily I survived and left this experience with a much different perspective on life. Here is an account of my experience....Additional writing, hosting and production by AliMusic is by Myuu Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

 The companies don’t need to use them for anything, their money comes from elsewhere. To turn them into anything else would come at a high price and to sell them on would mean losing an asset which is costing them nothing and could be worth a great deal more in the future.
