Wow, with friends like that girl from the first story, who needs enemies?!

[@WouldntULikeToKnow.]

For real

[@michellegable3191]

Poor Rita. I hope she gets some better friends or at least one that’s a whole lot smarter than that one.

[@birddogjohnson]

Girl in the first story. Let's not meet.

[@KKelly-ng1ni]

Dumb beyond all comprehension. I hope she does not procreate.

[@krismoon3901]

That story about OP slamming that creep in the face with a bat made me smile. Serves him right!

[@IamB3CCA]

Pro tip: if you like your bones intact and/or you’re afraid of bugs don’t go in abandoned buildings

[@meganh5948]

That first story….she should’ve listened to her friend. Follow you gut feeling. All of those where red flags.

[@trevnti]

Problem is not everybody has good intuition, especially those who rationalize things away

[@kevinsundelin8639]

Nothing even happened?

[@bungalowmo]

@@kevinsundelin8639 so I guess that makes it all ok? WTH is wrong with you?

[@kevinsundelin8639]

All of nothing is still nothing@@bungalowmo

[@ScrewgeMcF_ck]

@@trevntiYou don’t need good intuition when someone else who is currently with you, experiencing the same thing you are, is telling you it’s a bad idea.

[@MamaSpudzTV]

I can relate to the person in the 3rd story. Although I like Christmas but don’t like the crowds and ignorant people 😂

[@nw_blessed1404]

So you hate yourself? Or just other ignorant people?

[@dmarm89]

JUST as i was looking for new scary stories to sleep to >:)

[@iamyou3080]

Me toooo 😁

[@missamanda2703]

This guy is a gold mine of content and his voice is butter. Bailey Sarien is good too. Just don't watch the make up unless ofcourse you want to.

[@Panzoura]

Said it before, will say it again…, u make my boring office job bearable 😅 thank you for keeping me sane 😊

[@heyyshaneo]

Cindy seems like a real piece of work tbh lol. Glad she's OK tho

[@colteradamson5188]

yeah like tf does this guy following you home from a restaurant have anything to do with hating the holidays lmao

[@daviddelarosajr1758]

Thank you Joel can’t wait to hear these stories. Happy holidays

[@mleighqs]

Naw, the op from the last story was way nicer than I would have been. That guy would have been laid out if it was me. Great vid Lets Read!

[@mj3026]

Thank you Joel

[@chrissypringle5577]

Is it weird - you not only only help me sleep, but also my nine month old baby boy? 😂❤️ Thank you Joel. Happy holidays everyone!!

[@jazmineuzi3899]

wait pause cause same! my 9month old be right next to me zzzzzzing off to these stories every single night ❤😂

[@thegreenbee83]

Maybe Joel should have a channel for narrating nursery rhymes? He helps me sleep too!

[@GreenPsycho08]

I have a 9 month old son too! Might need to try that😂

[@thegreenbee83]

A KZbinr called hellfreezer had a playlist of classic nursery rhymes - as in the original brothers Grimm etc - only the little red hen I would class as suitable for all ages - he sadly had to remove it cos of KZbin being KZbin sigh

[@helenivanoff6287]

Yeah whenever my cat buddha hears lets read intro, he knows its HIS bedtime lol

[@unknownposterr]

Your voice for the creep in the lime green coat and pantaloons killed me that was perfect

[@ryanbell5497]

I never do a meet up with craigslist without being at the police station. If you don't meet up there you better bring a gun. That's for the first story

[@geraldmeadors4681]

The girl in the first story got me fuming. Out of everything that happened that's the lesson she learned. Her friend better stay far away from her for her own good

[@sylviashannon8006]

Yeah. She’s a Royal dumb dumb

[@chikari123]

100% agree.

Whoever TC is he's funny AF. "Hey guys, this isn't even the building I shot at"

[@DoctorFoot.]

I love your videos!!! Happy holidays!! I hope everyone is safe and has a great time this year

[@LLStark]

Thanx Joel! Listening to these stories only confirms the many weirdos there are in the world and some were actually kinda funny too as long as nobody got hurt or killed!

[@willow9912]

what's up with the OP in the first story? After almost getting Rita killed all she took away from it was "Lol me so quirky, I will shop early. Clumsy me" Rita needs to run.

[@christafox13]

Yeah wtf, who puts their friend’s safety and lives in jeopardy while deliberately ignoring the red flags / refusing to listen to their friends judgement 🤦🏼‍♀️ And then goes “oh silly me, now you have to sacrifice yourself for me and save my ass”. Damn OP is an oblivious self absorbed moron.

[@Libertybaynurse]

Perfect way to end my Birthday! Listening to Joel as I drift off to sleep! Thank you so much, your voice is so soothing... I'm in dreamland before the end of the video. 😊

[@vam-rw2hd]

It sounds to me like TC showed op a great place to shop for spiders. And I bet those spiders were like, really affordable too. What a pal!

[@jacobbowling263]

Marry Christmas and happy holidays Joel I hope it’s filled with joy.

finals over i can finally chill thanks Joel

[@Cherrynymphet]

I think if that spider story happened to me I would genuinely die of a heart attack I feel so bad for that guy!!

[@2Bad4YOUuu]

AWwe MANn!! For real-- Only thing I would have to be grateful for, is that they were not black widow or poisonous spiders 😳😵

[@York22]

The final story is an arachnophobe's worst nightmare. I will never go into an abandoned building.

[@mojo3318]

These were great scary, holiday shopping stories. I am glad all the victims were okay or at least survived. I knew something was off in the first story when the lights in the house were off. The guy with a big, brown beard and seemingly two teeth must have followed the woman home in the fourth story. TC would just leave the guy in the last story? And he asked if anyone wanted to check the other building out after what happened? I've been picturing these stories in my head. I enjoyed them. I guess the moral in one of the stories is to look in your rear view mirrors when driving to see if anyone is following you home. And I didn't know the girl in "The Grinch" was Cindy.

[@mj3026]

Thank you Joel hope you have a wonderful Christmas 🎄 😊

Always Awesome Horror!!

[@hayasheeeesh]

Why the hell would you go check the area where your friend said a home intruder was? The OP of that story was treating her friend like she had a nightmare or was scared of monsters under her bed or something.

[@jaybabypyt]

gotta be a different kind of slow to try to go back to sleep after someone tells you they heard footsteps in your house when you’re alone and then proceed to go to where they heard the footsteps 🤦🏾‍♀️why are people like this

Soooo what was Rita supposed to do when the weirdo would pull out a gun or if it was a whole group of thugs? Rita should ditch the bad friend.

sacrificing her friend over a gift

The first story about the PS5 is all to real. I paid $800 for a PS5 aftermarket only a few months after retail release.😢

[@z_8024]

40:33 idk why this had me dying

[@3emeraldangel]

Op in 1st story better treat her friend like a queen to make up that utter stupidity. Story 3, coming from a baseball family as soon as I heard baseball stance I knew that hit had to hurt. No one throws a swing like a baseball/softballer, it becomes instinct and you better believe it WILL pack a punch.

[@amberjay95]

Hope you have a fabulous Christmas Joel. Thankyou for everything you do 💕 keep up the amazing work

[@shadowthehedgehog1015]

That girl in the first story is the reason shampoo bottles have instructions

[@debrashaundrica1847]

The first story if I was Rita , I would’ve cut her off so fast. She really put her friend in danger over a PS5
