The following written confession was submitted via email: My Great Great Uncle was a Thomas Lipton Schooner Captain . . . Back then Plymouth Sound (UK) which is a natural harbour that can hold fleets of ships and British Navy was basically queued and full so he had to anchor for 24 hours at the River Yealm. And told his crew he would walk back via Connor's Cove through Wembury and see his family 24hrs early….

The following written confession was sent to Tony via a friend and shared on The Confessionals IG account: Here is an interesting picture sent over to me [Tony] by one of my camera men @hesedmedia. He was sent this picture and passed it on to me. What are your thoughts? Mangy dog? Dire wolf? Dogman snacking on pumpkins? This was taken in Peninsula, OH. Middle of the Cuyahoga Valley Natl Park, which also contains Hell, OH. Largest wolf on record in that area is 34" at shoulder.

The following written confession was submitted via email: This is a memory that has been with me for so long that I’m not sure if it is real or a dream. The facts that I do know align with this being a true story. I was unaware of the phenomena of “hatman” until somewhat recently when I went back to school and had to take a creative writing class. I wrote about this memory, and one of the people in class brought up “hatman.” I didn’t know so many other people had experiences similar to mine, so many that he has a name….

The following written confession was submitted via email: I wanted to share with you an experience my older brother and I had back in the late 90's, I believe it was August of 1998 and I was 22, my brother was 37 at the time. We used to do our annual camping trip to the Florida Keys every summer back when I still lived in Florida . . . we always set up in the "Green tent area" as far away from other campers as possible in a wooded area not far from the beach . . .

If you’ve listened The Confessionals for any length of time, you’ve probably been creeped out by a memorable clip from the intro: “When he came over to me, dude, he slithered over to me.” That disturbing sound bite comes to us courtesy of Phill from the even creepier Episode 50: Haunting Stories of Onset, Massachusetts. Now for even more eerie adventures with Phill, check out a video of his Randonautica trip to haunted Hockomock Swamp in southeastern Massachusetts!

The following written confession was shared on Reddit: …I’m from eastern Slovakia in a city that isn’t necessarily religious, but has a lot of stories about demons and unholy things. We have one specific legend about what we call a “Zrkadlok”, a demon that mirrors whoever is looking at it, but I never really believed in that stuff. We lived in a small Slavic house, and I shared a room with my brother and 2 sisters. One night I was in bed and having trouble sleeping, just lying there wide awake…

The Ningen may be one of the oddest cryptids you’ve never seen! A water creature that was first sighted by Japanese fishermen and research vessels around the Antarctic, the Ningen is allegedly enormous in size and humanoid in shape. In the Japanese language, Ningen means human…

The following written confession was shared via Reddit: Alright this is a quick story. My MIL is a very spiritual person. My husband has told me stories of paranormal stuff that happened in his childhood home his whole life. I didn’t really think anything of it until this particular stay. One night we are sleeping in his old bedroom. I have never really slept great there just because there’s always an uneasy feeling….

This is a weird one… but that’s the way we like it. There are lots of conspiracy theories floating around the internet lately, but who knew there was even one about your streetlights? Some folks claim that some peculiar purple streetlights lining highways and on-ramps are not the result of flawed LEDs, as the manufacturers claim, but are in fact part of a nefarious black light surveillance network.

The following written confession was submitted via email: When I was 3 or 4 I was sleeping in the back bedroom of my grandmas trailer on the Oneida Rez in Wisconsin. I was in a toddler sized bed at the foot of my moms bed. I woke up and this little “devil” was sitting on my stomach just staring and smiling at me, his smile was like the Cheshire cats, really big that went up to his eyes. He was holding something….
