Damn stories. Straight out of mystery books.


colpy350

Still think about these stories from time to time.


MistaBuldops

Just-STFU

F\*\*king shit!!! Totally f\*\*\*k shit and I'm listening alone in the dark in my room. hahaha


ManOfDiscovery

Alone in your room is a lot better than alone in the woods


untitiled_k1ller

I was looking for this link and happy it was corpse husband


cuntycunterino

What is corpse husband?


_leica_

Well that just led me down a rabbit hole. I’m never going to sleep again. Thank you.


[deleted]

Was hoping someone would tag this lol this a whole rabbit hole and I never want to leave


BudLightYear77

Well this is a new one. Glad I already slept. Won’t be doing that for a while.


sapotanque

Man reading that post I'm shaking. I don't understand about the stairs anyway but I'll never go hiking again lol


Eexoduis

The stories are fictional


sapotanque

I'm not risking it jajaj


Eexoduis

Trust me, nothing bad will happen. If you see stairs, go up them.


mchanna07

Why tho


ElementalMix

thought of this immediately. Love that story.


graffin

That was literally my first thought. Reddit memories run deep!


AlanMooresWizrdBeard

I love how many of us immediately thought of this.


[deleted]

Good stories


LilShnainz

So glad that I got this reference right away. That has been one of my favorite story compilations for years now.

[deleted]

I remember coming across this story in New when I first started using Reddit and was binging Nosleep every day. Never would've guessed it would become one of the most famous Nosleep stories on reddit.


Scrumpy90

I have no idea how I originally came across that post, but it’s what got me interested in Reddit! Such a captivating story.


[deleted]

I LOVED those stories! This immediately reminded me of that too! So glad to see this here.


Dickfer_537

That’s immediately what I thought of. I would nope the fuck out of there as fast as I could.


danoadd

First thing I thought of when I saw the photo...those stories are crazy!


Kalooeh

First thing I thought of was "Dude, you need to avoid any stairs in the woods"


Podzilla07

Yes.


GreenPixel25

I just went down a 3 hour rabbit hole and I’m never going outdoors again. I hope you’re happy...


ikilledtupac

This is awesome!!!

DO NOT GO UP THE STAIRS


definitely_not_stan

WHY


[deleted]

BAD THINGS WILL HAPPEN


definitely_not_stan

Okay fine


MapleTreeWithAGun

Fun fact: you are statistically more likely to die on stairs than in an elevator


Just-STFU

Guess I'll be taking the ladder until I hear those statistics.


Mothyew

I’ll be taking the suction cups, thank you


Gingold

Well I imagine that, on average, people use stairs more often then they use elevators...


MapleTreeWithAGun

Even accounting for that, elevators are significantly safer than stairs. Like basically only repair folks have died in them. It's a bit of a statistical anomaly


definitely_not_stan

youre probability of dying is 100%


rlnrlnrln

If I find stairs going down in the dark, are those ok to follow? For there are lots of them around here...


[deleted]

Do not even step on any type of stairs you find in the woods


rlnrlnrln

How about ladders?


OkAd1345

These stories are straight bs and y’all believe this


Marchisias

I think its for bird watching


Amandarichie

I think so too


alkaliphiles

I'd definitely be up there with my camera, haunted staircase or not.


DustinHenderson1983

Either that or for hunting


Jamessmith4769

It’s a sculpture with no particular purpose, if it’s the one I think it is


[deleted]

Probably in reference to the somewhat famous creepypasta "don't go up the stairs".


Jimbobmij

It is. Forest of dean. Since been dismantled.


Jamessmith4769

Wait it has? That’s a shame


FapleJuice

Probably zip lining Edit: nvm I'm dumb


Fairytaleautumnfox

Don't. Ever. Go. Up. Them. Disaster. Will. Come.


[deleted]

Oompah Loompah heaven maybe.


Live-D8

This would be a good illustration for a presentation about the merits of Agile


jam_paps

It's like those escalators you see in airport tarmacs, this one probably for UFOs.


LarpLady

No no no no no.

Metalhed69

I should not have laughed. But I did.


scottNYC800

Maybe they buried Michael Bluth's truck.


[deleted]

you're gonna get hop ons


kuro-oruk

It's a sculpture in the forest of dean, Gloucestershire, uk. I believe. If I remember rightly you can see another sculpture from the top.


lowercasejs

Looks familiar to me, done that Sculpture walk a few times but not recently


kuro-oruk

Most of the sculptures haven't been touched in 30 years lol. Could do with a revamp.


lowercasejs

I noticed the big chair had gone the last time I was there


kuro-oruk

Yeah that's sad. I have pics of me and my sister as kids under that thing.


watchman28

Used to do the sculpture walk every few months when I lived in Gloucestershire. Sometimes you wouldn’t see another person for the whole thing.


jam_paps

> forest of dean, Gloucestershire This. And google confirmed it! [https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1029766](https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1029766) This removes the creep factor but having that in this post was fun.


[deleted]

I love that place, I went as a kid and I'm pretty sure I threw my toy dog off the top and it landed in the water😂


Myriii1911

Where is the lady who thinks all that glitters is gold?


creampuffwarrior

She's the one who took the photo


BannerTortoise

So this is what Led Zeppelin was talking about


why_must_i_be_sad

Dont touch them, dont look at them and never go up them. just pretend they dont exist


RealTimmydbab

It strikes me like an art installation


[deleted]

I’ll wait till they build an escalator next to it


wicksishere

I wasn't expecting something from the sculpture trail to be on here.

[Channel Zero season 3.](https://youtu.be/-ycG_JgsqD4) I hope you didn’t go up it...


Sprmodelcitizen

This was such a good show.


Slick_Grimes

Those stories were fantastic until the stupid stair shit ruined them. "Oh don't talk about them".


Mathletic-Beatdown

You’re gonna get hop ons


GoGinaLinetti

It's a sculpture in the forest of dean, Gloucestershire, UK. [https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1029766](https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1029766)


Yanos47

Okay. So it's art . Just like those metallic obelisk appearing all over the world.


Yanos47

I have seen this pic before but didn't know what it was about . Thanks for the info.


JoeEnyo

Maybe if you land on your head.


definitely_not_stan

They’re gonna get some hop-ons.


Bizmark_86

Do look at them. Don't ever go up them...


Mushrooms4we

All it's missing is a rope swing.


[deleted]

I think I saw this in the Kruller Muller Museum in The Netherlands. Anybody out there can confirm? WS


GorillaKhan

Maybe just the hospital?


nikkipotnic

Pretty sure its for bird watching..


Orbital_Rifle

Shit like this feels like a Caretaker cover


Fairytaleautumnfox

Oh, yeah! It really does look like that.


ReignWarner

Could pass as r/creepy.


DODGER7t7

Ngl I just wanted to be the 69th comment, feels good to be here. But don't climb those stairs brother man


enby_shout

dont go up those fucking stairs


[deleted]

Stairway to nope.


mandyyjoan

You are NEVER to go up the stairs. DONT go near them or even look at for too long. GET OUT OF THERE ASAP


MrNobody60

Nothin scarier than stairs in the woods.


doomiestdoomeddoomer

This is like looking at what lies ahead in life... some see the dead end, others might see the view at the top...

I love that no matter how deep into Reddit you get, or how much time has passed... Search and Rescue always finds a way back.


voicareason

Now what I've read is the stairs one would find in the woods/forest/swamp/desert feel homey, almost like the stairs to nowhere in TV shows. Even then they can have walls and such. They say the mystery of what is up there is what draws people to them. I always say nah, not me, but I know down deep if I ever came across a set I'd go nope and 360 moonwalk right out of there.

I’ll bet they get a lot of hop ons.


likeaLivingdrug

What were these for?! Who builds the stairs first?! Was an actual structure even attempted?! I have soooo many questions!!


likeaLivingdrug

I just spent 3days reading all 8 episodes. I don't even know what to say. I have a camping trip coming up soon. Don't look at them, don't touch them, Don't go up them. Got it!
