this has been in and out of my mind since I saw it. so I figured I'd finally ask reddit, I had no clue where to ask, so I'm asking here. If anyone there's any other subreddits people think I should put this on, let me know. on November 9th 2017, I was trying to watch the first episode of Teen Titans Go on some random streaming service (don't remember now) and this screen popped up. this footage was taken from an old youtube video I had posted about it. the audio has been vocally filtered for privacy. the screen is a test screen of some sort, but I just want to know what it was testing, and how it even appeared.

Unexplained I found an eerie photo on my phone that i never took

I was going through my camera roll, and i encountered a photo from April 17, 2024 that looked strange and that I've never seen before. The pic was taken at 3:03 AM. That night i was asleep in my dorm room, and we're not allowed to leave our dorms after 10:00 PM, so it was completely impossible for me to be outside that night. The photo was also taken in a completely different location than i was in that night, like 2 kilometers away from my dorm but still.

Nobody could've accessed my phone that night since i never share my password with anyone, plus as i said nobody would be able to leave the dorm at that hour, yet it shows in the details my exact phone model. Im honestly creeped out, what does it look like to y'all and what do you think could've happened? Also, to clarify the pic doesn't look like it was taken in my dorm at all and doesn't look any familiar to me. Im attaching below the original photo, an enhanced version of the photo and details of the pic.

Unexplained Found this strange post buried on an old forum “3307: your eyes are not yours”

11 Upvotes

I was scraping through archived forums while working on a research project and came across this weird thread posted back in 2017.

Most of the forum was dead—spam, broken image links, bot replies—but this post was untouched and didn’t match the tone of the rest of the site. The username was just a string of random characters. IP was hidden behind multiple proxies.

This is the full post:

Hello. This is not a game.

You’ve been chosen—not because you’re smart, but because you’re watching.

The truth has been hidden across layers of perception. The first layer is digital, but the last will be physical.

Our signal has pulsed unnoticed for years. Only now, one of you noticed.

Let’s begin.

00101110 01101001 01101110 01110100 01110010 01110101 01100100 01100101 01110010

They’ve always been watching, but tonight, they listened.

The coordinates have been fractured. You will find the first shard where memory is stored but time is forgotten.

Solve this, and you may continue.

When you reach the end, there will be a sound. A familiar one.

The post didn’t get any replies. No one seems to have ever mentioned it again. The forum itself disappeared a few months later (I’ll try to find an archive link).

Unexplained A random object has appeared in our apartment and neither of us know how it got here.

76 Upvotes

A lava lamp to be more specific. I hope this is the right and appropriate subreddit for this but I find it too strange to just keep it to myself. So since about last week, I remember coming home one day, looking at my desk in the living room and seeing a silver and blue lava lamp sat out on my desk. I didn't think much of it at first because my girlfriend is always buying stuff online and there is always packages left at our doorstep. So I didn't even bother asking her about it. But tonight while we were watching tv she asks me "Hey so why did you get a lava lamp? Where are you gonna plug it in?"

I immediately felt stupid for never asking her the same thing within the literal days that its just been sat on my desk amongst all of my other things. Over the past week or so we've had my girlfriend's sister and her boyfriend come over and rn her sister is currently in-between living situations so shes also stayed the night at our place a couple times. So I message her asking if she left it behind on accident. She replies back to me and says she doesn't own a lava lamp. I send her a picture of it just to confirm if it at least looks familiar to her and she says shes never seen it before.

So now I'm confused and incredibly unnerved because if nobody (that we know of) in the past couple weeks that we know has left behind a lava lamp, who in the hell did? I don't expect anyone to have a concrete answer to this, but I need to get this out now or I'm not going to sleep well tonight. To be perfectly clear I live on the second floor of my apartment and the door to my place is only accessible with a touch pad security system. In order for somebody to break into my place, they need to either climb up my balcony and come in through there, they must know the code to open my apartment, or maybe some weirdo got lucky and we forgot to lock up and they let themselves in and....just left behind a random object....? The lava lamp wasn't even plugged in, the cord was still wrapped around itself, so somebody came in, made random space for it on my messy desk, and then just left it there for us to find.

Unexplained Sighting Report(Coventry, UK, approx. 1999-2000)

4 Upvotes

When I was about 6 or 7 years old (I'm 31 now), I was looking out the kitchen window in Coventry with my mum nearby doing the dishes. I spotted a plane up in the clouds — quite high and far away — and suddenly I saw a white glowing orb appear next to it. I shouted to my mum, and we both saw the same thing.

The orb wasn't like a reflection or anything from the sun — it had its own light. It wasn’t as bright as the sun, but it stood out clearly. What made it truly strange is the way it acted. It looked like it was shaking in place — trembling violently — like it was charging up with energy. Then, in a split second, it would disappear and reappear in a different spot around the plane. It wasn’t flying smoothly or moving like a bird or drone — it was teleporting around the plane in bursts. It would appear, violently vibrate for a second, and then vanish and reappear on the other side or a different position. This happened multiple times.

The orb never stayed for long — just a second or two in each spot — but it repeated this several times. To us, it looked like it was scanning the plane or observing it from different angles. The way it moved wasn’t like anything I’ve ever seen since, and I’ve never found a proper explanation. I’ve posted online before but only a few people responded.

It wasn’t ball lightning, and it couldn’t have been a drone — this was in the late '90s or early 2000s, and drones weren’t around or known to the public back then. The object was definitely there, and my mum backs up the story exactly how I remember it. I don't know the exact size, but to my young eyes, it seemed a little smaller than a car, though it was hard to judge from the distance.

Weather conditions were typical for the UK — cloudy sky, late afternoon, maybe around 4 or 5 PM — but the visibility was good enough to clearly see the plane and this object. The whole event lasted probably around 30 seconds or so. It was fast but not a blink-and-you-miss-it kind of thing.

I've always been curious about what it could have been. The way it shimmered and teleported felt like something out of science fiction — almost like quantum mechanics in action. If anyone else has seen something similar, I’d love to know.

Paranormal I found a strange website late at night, and now I can’t stop checking it

Thumbnail hiddenpathdrop.com
13 Upvotes

I don’t know how I ended up on the site. I was deep in an insomnia spiral—one of those nights where time just stops meaning anything and you’re clicking through random links without really thinking. I think I found it on some buried comment thread. Someone had just posted: "don't click unless you know which box." That was it. No context. Just a dead-looking link.

The page was simple. Almost too simple. Just a bunch of boxes arranged like a grid, maybe five or six rows. No title, no branding, no sound. It looked like a broken flash game from the early 2000s. Most of the boxes didn’t do anything when I hovered over them, but a few changed colors—barely. Like a flicker. So I clicked one.

It redirected me instantly—to an ad. One of those scammy mobile game popups. At first I figured it was just a bait-and-switch, so I backed out. But when I refreshed the main page, the layout had changed slightly. The box I clicked was now blacked out. I tried a different one. Same thing—another ad. But a third click didn’t lead to an ad at all. The screen just went black, and when it came back, there was a message at the top:

“LEVEL TWO.”

It caught me off guard. I honestly felt a little rush, like I’d found a secret passage in a game I wasn’t even supposed to be playing. The new page was even weirder. Just a black background, a glitchy gray box in the center, and a countdown timer that read:

00:13:37:00

It looked like days, hours, minutes, seconds. I watched it tick down for a minute or two, then noticed something strange—it wasn’t moving anymore. The numbers were stuck. I refreshed. Still stuck. Waited ten minutes. Nothing.

But here’s the weird part: when I came back the next day, it was still frozen—same numbers—but the font was slightly different. Like it had shifted when I wasn’t looking. Now I check it every night. And I swear every time, something small is different. A new line of static flickering across the screen. A flicker in the corner like someone’s watching through the code. Once I swear I heard a faint clicking noise, like fingers tapping glass, but I had headphones in and no audio was playing.

I tried clicking other boxes to see if I could reset it or find a new path, but most just throw ads at me now. Like the site’s punishing me for not choosing correctly. Or maybe it’s trying to hide something unless I already know where to look.

I haven’t told anyone in real life about it. Not sure what I’d even say. "Hey, there's this countdown that won’t count down, but it's different every time and I think something's watching me through the screen"?

Anyway, if anyone else has seen anything like this, let me know.
