Reddit, what is your most disturbing, scary, or creepy real story?
So this happened to me ... I was at my grandparents house for holi celebrations like it was time when I was doing meet coaching... And i had came home during Holi vacation. So my hostel was like 1.5 hrs away from my grandparents home and the hostel way 15-20im away from my hostel so I opted to stay I'm hostel.
My grandfather was very healthy he used to work around our small amgan garden, plus lift heavy things easily. And he loved me a lot (i was the oldest grandchild) so a day before I was leaving for hostel... I got very sick... like every thing i eat inwas vomiting and I got two injections.... As I was sick and was not eating anything so he asked what I'm feeling like to eat... when I said that I wanted to eat pakodi he and fried them.. like a lot of them.
The next day I felt good and I left for hostel.. before leaving he talked to me about a few things and asked me what I was doing and I was confused cause he was told that I was preparing for neet and all but I let it go cause hey he was getting older and all things.. I left at 11 am reached hostel and did all the cleaning and set my things and fall asleep..
I had a dream of him that he was taking me somewhere and i can't see any buildings.. I asked dada and said that I'm tired on that he was like.. it's ok we will together sleep soon.. we would rest.... He was grabbing my wrist and practically dragging me with him. He seemed smiling a lot .. and I was creeped out so I somehow jerked my hands out of his reach and ran.
He was calling after me, and all.. when I woke up at like 5 something I got a call from my father ( he was in another state because of his job) that dada is dead and he is coming for the funeral.. I was shocked like I had seen him the same day six hours ago and now he is dead??
But the thing that creeped me out the most was my arm hurted a lot for a few days.. now if I remember i don't remember if it was the same hand he grabbed in the dream.. but I still get the chills... If I have had left in dream with him... What would have happened..
