Apologies for the delay - This was supposed to release 3 hours ago, but I apparently messed up the publication time. Enjoy!

[@kituwahband]

My mother worked at a women's prison that now sits on a site that used to be a deaf, blind, & orphan Institute (none of those buildings are standing, it just it's old site). She would talk about hearing children playing around primarily in the prison gym or an office at the SHU (segregated housing unit). Occasionally she said you'd hear things on the other units but mostly in those two places. One story she told she was working the SHU one night and she heard a loud bang and the wall vibrated like a vehicle hit the building or something like that. She checked her inmates and they were all sleep, then went outside to check but nothing was amiss, called other units and central control, but nobody heard or experienced anything...so she just went back to her paperwork

I am a pure isolationist. No wife, no kids, no friends, work from home and make exceptionally good money. I have a ton of hobbies and one of them is listening to spooky stories from Darkness Prevails. Thank you buddy. The quality is always excellent and I love to hear your voice

I didn't know I was called an isolationist. Don't make hardly any extra money. I'm a disabled vet, but I think my medication keeps me from being lonely. I listen to darkness prevails every night without fail. I hope everyone is doing great . I can't really complain, I made it back right. I'm grateful.

[@Servellion]

Having learned more about how that "feeling watched" feeling actually works...it's a case of knowing how it works actually makes things worse. If you get that feeling, it's because you've actually seen something watching you with peripheral vision, you just haven't brought it into central concious vision yet for full identification

[@ReRe-kr1ht]

Wait!!! Are you sure, like the most sure you've ever been😭

[@jennifersimer2787]

I used to get that feeling when I lived out in the country, the only thing that could've been watching was likely a wild animal or insect.

[@Servellion]

@@jennifersimer2787 Part of the "feeling" is your subconcious seeing a pattern of something. Think a similar phenomena is pareidolia. One of the patterns your subconcious looks for is anything that can be percieved as a "face" so an animal, a person, a weird tree stump that looks like a demon crouching down until you shine your flashlight on it. So it can be fooled, it's just part of a visual early warning system built into us.

[@jessicadanna5206]

I just wanted to say when the screaming tree story came up, I was instantly brought to one of my favorite childhood movies Ferngully and also my favorite comedian and actor in the world Robin Williams! I can recite his lines almost perfectly so thank you for telling that story and bringing back such a good memory. I can only imagine how terrifying that would be though so I hope he is ok.

[@kimberlyshepherd270]

I love and miss Robin Williams 😢 I have brain cancer and I can't remember what the movie he was in. I remember a treehouse and he grew up rapidly. Can you please tell me what movie that is?

He should've stayed at his Job! He knew Johnny was friendly and I would NEVER pass up legit face to face interactions with a specter! Good stuff, DP!

[@shelbiewilliams4027]

I enjoyed the last story of 'The Janitor and Johnny' as well, and I guess not everyone is as curious or excited to meet a seemingly peaceful/good ghost as the two of us. XD Tho, as someone who has never had a paranormal experience before, but believes in ghosts and all that kind of stuff. It would be pretty jarring to suddenly realize your coworker was actually a ghost who decided to manifest themselves to you for some reason. 😅

[@neonicon8500]

First dude broke his shoulder, or at least dislocated, but just started picking up crates right after

[@ridwaanabrahams4132]

Being from South Africa I enjoyed the third story. Very true about police being almost useless and paramedics being attacked or even robbed of there equipment in dangerous areas😢

[@sneaky_kitkat]

My mom is a nurse and she heard me listen to the third story and told me she had a guy who used the same drug and unfortunately passed

[@kimberlyshepherd270]

That's horrible 😮

[@yosselenm.m3288]

Yay, Looks like I’m sleeping good tonight 😊😂

[@billyshupe5239]

No doubt my friend 😉 I do the same thing almost every night!! Sasquatch Chronicles is awesome too

[@stevemiller4494]

This particular collection of stories were some of the best I've ever heard.... Especially the forklift in the security guard graveyard.... As a guy with seven years forklift experience I can tell you it's not the speed that killed that guy it's not having his seatbelt on and paying attention that brought about that tragedy.... Irregardless it is very fascinating and I enjoyed hearing about it....also the mausoleum in the graveyard there have to be a pretty freaky scenario.... It's never a fun thing coming across cultists in the middle of their rituals 😂 Anyway thanks darkness prevails

[@dontwakethedeadp.jankey9592]

[@froginprogress8510]

The orange hazmat suit guy reminds me of a woman down the road from us who developed a total light intolerance from chemotherapy. It went away after a year or so, but she would cover up completely to do anything where even minor light exposure might happen. The exotics vet I used to take my chinchillas to had her own horrifying screaming tree experience. Well, her boyfriend. Read no further if you're sensitive or squeamish. . . . He went to cut down a tree in their yard and sliced right through a chipmunk nest, and one baby. Horrifying, but in a different way. The other two babies and both parents were fine, just maybe traumatized. The boyfriend was pretty upset, too.

Weirdest sleep paralysis I've ever heard.. I've never heard anyone exiting their bodies.. 🤨

[@DanielFrost79]

Never heard of an Out-Of-Body-Experience? Talked about A lot in the paranormal field.b🤔

[@codyj1162]

I thought that was call Astral Projection or something... 😮 Edit: yeah "Astral Projection: Astral projection is a term used in esotericism to describe an intentional out-of-body experience that assumes the existence of a subtle body, known as the astral body or body of light, through which consciousness can function separately from the physical body and travel throughout the astral plane. Lol sounds interesting to say the least...

[@einienj3281]

@@DanielFrost79 I have. But never when they claim it to be a sleep paralysis. Two different things. I've suffered from frequent SP for 30+ years, never ever have I left my body..

[@cupcake9236]

Hey Cupcake here It was really hard to describe what i felt at that time, it was simultaneously happening at the same time. I could feel the pillow pressed against my cheek and my muscles in my body felt super heavy and also i was floating above myself. Like...my vision was from above but i still had the physical feeling of my body sensation being unable to move. Idk if i used the right term, i just felt paralyzed so i called it that! Hope that clears it up

[@mra8162]

The scariest thing that happened to me at work, was I did some.

[@erinw.9256]

I really enjoyed all of these stories. Though I wonder was there any blood on the chainsaw from the tree left on it? Also I really enjoyed the last story really unique.

[@CleoHarperReturns]

First story killed me -- all I could picture is a boss who used a reflection to scare the safety into the young kids he hired. I can just see him refining the story over the years. Canned peaches!😆

Someone doesn't work at the school anymore for a month and you didn't think to get the key back or change the locks ?! 🤔and when you show up and the doors unlocked you don't call the cops, makes no sence

[@jessicadanna5206]

Also when you think about it trees are alive and probably do scream and bleed because they creak and groan and leak out sap so it’s possible we will never know. Just thought I’d throw that out there and see if anyone catches it so to speak haha. Hope you and the fam are doing well!

I think they are all mostly, “just stories”. Like everything else online ya gotta take’em with a grain of salt. I do love how entertaining they are. I’m sure there may be some truth among them all, but I’d use discretion in what & how much I’d believe.

[@joecanali5594]

“I experienced sleep paralysis” …… proceeds to describe something that is definitely not sleep paralysis and credit all their bravery to a dream they had. Stories like that one immediately become unbelievable and I always feel are made up by narcissist to try and get featured in videos like this.

[@haywoodyoudome]

It's South Africa so their names would more likely be "Click click tongue snap" and "Tongue snap click click".

[@jessicadanna5206]

Surprisingly believe it or not the people who send in the stories are the ones who use letter abbreviations for names or it’s to keep anonymity for the people rendered to in the story or it’s to help make the story somewhat shorter and easier to read, at least that’s what I’ve heard and gathered from DP and other narrators. Just trying to help figure it out is all.
