SPOOKTACULAR ANIMAL STORIES

Because horror stories aren’t necessarily fiction, especially when they involve animals.

Sometimes, people say that our pets are more attuned to nature; their natural instincts help them sense when a natural disaster is about to happen. Earthquakes, storms, volcanic activity, you name it. Can this instinct of theirs also help them be more attuned to the supernatural? Maybe. Who started this correlation? There’s no clear-cut answer (the witch hunts in the 1400s may have something to do with this, actually), but that doesn’t stop people from thinking about it: Is this true? Can my pet actually sense the paranormal? It’s time to play Ancient Aliens – but with ghosts. After compiling some entries from online articles and websites like the r/nosleep subreddit, as well as some accounts from people in real life who’ve been privy to the paranormal, this list of stories was made. Are they real or not? Who knows?
