Completely majestic.

However, as the dive wore on, the waves crashing into the rocks above got stronger and stronger.

Like any curious mind, Hoover decided he needed a closer look at the waves.

Unfortunately, John got a little too close and ended up being swept away by the current. That looks terrifying.

Luckily, Hoover survived his brush with the power of the ocean. Still though, in the moment that must have been insanely terrifying.

The Story Of What They Found In This Guy’s Home Would Make For A Perfect Horror Plot

Growing up, I’m sure most of us had that one creepy neighbor. You know, the one who just seemed off in some way — maybe not in a “kill you in cold blood for no reason” kind of way, but still bizarre.

Looking back now, you can probably boil that down to being a kid and not knowing much about the world. For Redditor SomeKindOfHypnotist, however, his assessment of the creepy guy next door was actually tame compared to what was really going on.

SomeKindOfHypnotist says that the house he grew up in was right next to that of an older gentleman, affectionately known as Creeky.

While there were many strange things about Creeky, one of the weirdest things of all was that he always seemed to have an enormous amount of cats and dogs hanging out on his property. From the outside, it seemed like Creeky lived in squalor, but SomeKindOfHypnotist says that he actually owned properties all over town.

Creeky never spoke to anyone, and the only time he left his house was to go to the grocery store. There, he bought pet food, grapes, and a 12-pack of Pepsi every week. He always paid with a $100 bill.

After SomeKindOfHypnotist moved away, the third floor of Creeky’s house collapsed. That’s when he moved into an RV that was parked on the property. Not long after that, his house mysteriously burned to the ground. A few years later, Creeky was finally placed in a nursing home by the state. The Redditor’s father got a call from out of the blue one day, and the person on the other end of the line turned out to be Creeky’s sister. She asked him to go check on the property so that she could prepare to sell it.

His father agreed, but what he found inside the RV and Creeky’s other cars was nightmarish.

He discovered stacks and stacks of crates, each containing the rotting or mummified remains of a cat or dog.

var OX_ads = OX_ads || []; OX_ads.push({ slot_id: “537251602_56ff3071e9843”, auid: “537251602” });

Some of the bodies had been placed in cardboard containers, and others were simply stuffed inside black garbage bags.

I can’t even begin to imagine how horrible this must’ve smelled.

The animals that never made it into cardboard caskets or garbage bags just decomposed where they fell.

var OX_ads = OX_ads || []; OX_ads.push({ slot_id: “537251604_56ff3071e99f9”, auid: “537251604” });

While it’s hard to say for sure, it’s likely that Creeky killed most of these poor animals himself.

All that was left of Creeky’s house was this pile of rubble and ash. It wouldn’t surprise me in the least if there were some human remains in there somewhere.

Just imagine growing up right down the road from that madness. The Redditor never said what happened to Creeky after he was put in the nursing home. All we can do is hope that this disturbed man received the help he clearly needed.

When A Hole Formed In Their Front Lawn, They Had No Idea They’d Find THIS Inside

When you’re out mowing your lawn, the last thing you might expect is for the ground to open up and swallow you whole. But that’s what almost happened to Emma James back in November.

The 45-year-old British woman first noticed an odd dip in her lawn a few months ago, but since then, it’s grown into a full-fledged hole that’s two feet by two feet…

James says she first noticed a small dip in her lawn back in November, but the spot grew and gave way when she poked it with a shovel.

Today, it’s seven feet deep. Not only is there now a strange abyss in her yard, but from the surface, James can make out several rusty steps leading into the darkness.

Despite numerous calls to the city and company who built her home, James says no one has been able to offer an explanation for what lies below.

Hopefully it doesn’t turn out to be some sort of demonic portal to the other side…

Well, that’s terrifying. I think I would try to move out if I found something like that in my front yard. Yikes.

These Unexplained Sounds Heard Over Istanbul Are Pretty Darned Freaky

The phenomenon known as “sky trumpets” has been around for a quite a while now. If you’re not familiar with it, it comes about when trumpet-like noises emanate from the sky in every direction. All of this sounds like something from a bad sci-fi movie, but this weirdness happens around the world. There are plenty of videos to prove it.

The latest video comes to us from Istanbul, Turkey. Residents there experienced the phenomenon from the early hours of December 30 until the following day.

This is so freaky.

According to those who have studied sky trumpets, it’s possible that the noises are the result of Earth’s natural radio transmissions. Still, that’s not very comforting when the world is screaming all around you.

You Don’t Want To Be Out On This Lake Right Now If You Can Help It

Waterspouts can be pretty dangerous things if you happen to be out on the water when one forms. Luckily, they are rarities in most places. However, Qinghai Lake in China’s Qinghai Province is not most places.

googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DCBP_ATF’); });

Earlier this week, tourists spotted not just one, but three waterspouts forming simultaneously on the surface of the lake.

“Water tornados,” as some call them, are formed by a convection current of warm and cold air over a body of water.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27WnVJzJoKM?autoplay=0]

While three waterspouts might seem insane, it’s not actually the most that Qinghai Lake has seen.

Back in 2014, onlookers saw nine simultaneous waterspouts spring up on a particularly stormy day. That’s pure nightmare fuel, folks.

And they’re not all that uncommon elsewhere, either.

These were spotted near a beach in the Netherlands.

I would not want to be out waterskiing during this one in Florida.

Have you ever been on the water during one of these?

This Guy Claims To Have Found An Alien Artifact That Fell Off Of A UFO

Sometimes it seems like the debate over whether or not we’re alone in the universe will never be settled. First you have someone claim to encounter a UFO, then you have people go and debunk that claim, and the cycle repeats itself over and over again.

What could settle the whole argument once and for all would be some physical evidence of aliens, which is where the story of Bob White comes in.

In 1985, White and a friend of his were driving from Denver to Las Vegas. They were the only ones on the road as they neared the Utah-Colorado border.

That’s when they saw it: a blinding white light in the sky about 100 yards in front of them.

That’s when they pulled the car over and stared in awe as the object silently floated up and joined with a pair of tubular lights. White suspects that this was a mothership of some kind. Once the UFO was docked with the bigger ship, it zoomed off into the distance until it was out of sight.

That’s when White and his friend noticed some debris falling to the ground.

Amazing Universe

The object (pictured above) was red hot when White found it. In the years since his encounter, White has spent upwards of $60k having the object analyzed and tested.

So far, the tests have yielded very little evidence that the object is of alien origin. The only confirmed finding is that it’s mostly made of aluminum.

Still, that hasn’t stopped White from believing that what he saw that night was from another world. He has vowed to continue testing and retesting the artifact until he finds a way to prove where it came from.

An Intruder Just Broke Into Their House And Watched Them Sleep For Over 10 Minutes

Are you paranoid about making sure that your windows and doors are securely locked at all times to prevent unwelcome strangers? Well, if you’re not already, you will be after you watch this video. It’s from a surveillance camera inside the Chicago home of Jordan Buranskas and her boyfriend, Jack Mackercher.

The footage shows a creepy man in a white hoodie standing at the top of the stairs, watching the couple while they slept on the couch. To say it’s unsettling would be an understatement.

He’s the ultimate creep.

The scariest part is that they only noticed this guy while reviewing the footage trying to figure out where Jordan’s purse went (which he did, in fact, steal). If he hadn’t taken anything, they would never have known that he was there.

This Huge Wildfire In Canada Is Surely What The End Of Days Will Look Like

If you haven’t heard already, a large swath of northwestern Canada, near Calgary, the energy heartland of the country, is currently in flames. A fast-advancing wildfire is threatening thousands of homes and lives. The images coming from the front line of the fire are absolutely devastating. This is what I imagine the apocalypse will look like…

The fire, which started Sunday, has only grown in intensity. So far, it had consumed 18,500 acres and forced the evacuations of at least 88,000 people.

The majority of those evacuations have taken place in and around the city of Fort McMurray in Alberta, Canada.

That number of evacuees is expected to climb as fire conditions continue to worsen over the coming days. Thankfully, though, a break in the unusually hot and humid weather is expected over the weekend with a chance of rain.

In addition to destroying close to 1,600 buildings in the Fort McMurray area, the fire has also forced much of Alberta’s lucrative oil production to a halt. Many oil companies not directly impacted by the wildfire have also chosen to cease operations fearing future highway closures.

While the cause of the fire is unclear, many have already blamed the worsening conditions on climate change.

Luckily there have been no casualties directly related to the fire, but evacuation centers near the blaze are close to full and many are running short on food and water.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Canada. Let’s hope the rain this weekend will make it easier for crews to get a handle on the blaze.

Someone Is Placing LED Lights On These Statues…The Current Email Address Details Are Terrifying

regarding checking out old European towns, many of the creepiest cause of all are the old statues that look like on every area. They look a whole lot worse when the sunshine drops. In line with the city, it is actually simple for a short history behind several these statues was lost, which really just makes them creepier.

Truly, after some duration ago, a prankster with a twisted passion for life decided therefore it would-be a smart idea to raise the horror by doing something awful.

A prankster in Scotland connected LED lights to your eyes of many of the town’s creepiest statues.

the consequence is very terrifying if you are maybe not expecting it.

they might be constantly watching.

easily was in fact a tourist and I saw this thing, I really do think I would pee my jeans.

“personally I do believe like I will be becoming saw.”

the following is that exact same statue under better lighting. Notably less freaky I think.
