Fright Night at a Caregiving Facility
One night, Reddit user BaseAttackBonus was busy working at a caregiving facility when one of the patients warned him that there was someone outside. Of course, he didn’t think much of it because the patient had dementia. But when he humored the old gal and went to investigate, he realized she wasn’t seeing things.
“I work a graveyard shift at a caregiving facility taking care of people with advanced dementia. Basically I watch people die for a living, they beg and cry and moan all night long and then they die. We just had a client die yesterday and it left my coworker in tears. Now for the creepy part.
A client wakes up and tells me someone is outside her window. I figure this must be a hallucination but she keeps insisting so I look for a knife but I was new at the time and didn’t know where they kept them locked up. So I end up with a large pointy salad fork, 3am, outside looking for intruders. It turns out she wasn’t hallucinating. I didn’t catch anyone, thank god, but my coworkers bike was stolen that night.”
