True Stories with Endings You Won’t See Coming
1.This woman had lived on the 8th floor of my building for 50 years. She was always alone, and never smiled. All the neighbors avoided her because she could start a fight at any moment. Last month, she died. The police knocked on my door, telling me I should go up to her flat with them.
As I entered, I got chills: I found my entire life depicted on her walls—snaps of me on the street taken from her balcony, from when I was a kid until now. It felt creepy but also very confusing.
It turns out this woman had no one, and my presence somehow kept her company. Photographing me became her hobby throughout the years.
What shocked me even more was that she had left me her flat, along with the collection of photos.
2.My dad passed away in 1997. A couple of years later, I was driving home after a visit with my mom at her house. My wife and two kids were in the car with me.
Out of the blue, a scent came into the vehicle. Immediately, I knew what it was but kept quiet.
My son who was about 4 at the time spoke out loud, “What is that smell?” My wife looked straight at me and said, “Did you smell that too? That is your father.” J Em / Quora
3.Right after high school graduation, I met a girl with the same name as my mother — Jacqueline, for the record. We were both born and raised in the same mid-sized city. I didn’t think much of it beyond the obvious, “Oh, that’s a completely coincidental happenstance!”
Fast-forward two or three months, she and I are dating. I meet her parents, and her dad “swears” he’s met me before. A few weeks later, I visited Jacqueline at work and was greeted with the following: “So, I know why my dad thinks you look familiar. He dated your mom in high school, then named his daughter after her.” FabricateReality / Reddit
4.This happened to my aunt in the 80s. She had this weird dream about being abducted and medically tested inside a UFO. The classic alien nightmare. She thought nothing more of it.
A few days later, she goes to a routine dentist appointment and gets an x-ray. The dentist shows her the x-ray image and there seems to be something under one of her molars.
I saw the x-ray myself and there was what I would guess is a metal rectangular object in there. Anyway, the dentist decides they got to take it out. They make an appointment to do just that, something close to a week later.
They finally get to the appointment, and begin. Here’s where it gets weird. They find nothing. The dentists take another x-ray. Nothing. Gone. I saw that x-ray too. Nothing there. Weirder still, she says she had the same dream again two nights before returning to the dentist. Ian Burelle / Quora
5.When I was 5 years old, I was in a restaurant with my mum and brothers when I saw this man across our table. I just couldn’t stop looking at him, thinking to myself that I really knew him. As a 5-year-old kid, I just felt drawn to him. I finally told my mum and I ask her who that man was.
When she saw him, she was gobsmacked; he was the obstetrician that had delivered me; basically he was the first face, the first human being I ever saw in the whole world in my whole life.
Note that after that moment, my birth, I have never seen him again. But somehow I recognized him! After the first shock, my mum went to talk to him, he remembered my mum as I was the only red hair child he has ever delivered (in Brazil). When we told him what had just happened, he was also amazed and said that he will always tell this story. Marcia Jones / Quora
