64 Spine-Chilling Halloween Disasters That Will Make You Question Everything Beyond Costumes

My girlfriend loves being scared. It’s her thing. I’m not going to be all macho and pretend nothing scares me. Heights give me the heebie geebies. So we went to a haunted house event. Not that crazy one where they actually torture you and you have to sign a forty page waiver, but it was still pretty extreme. I think we have all seen the pictures of groups of people recoiling in fear.

I however do not startle easy. And I have a difficult time suspending disbelief. So the guy chasing us through the haunted house with a chainsaw wasn’t scary. To me. My girlfriend was scared from the disorientation and the noise and the best really amazing costume. But I played along. I let the actors chase us, I hid with her in a closet where the back falls away and there is a Japanese ghost girl in it. It was fun and my girlfriend was happy. When we got to the last room. The one where they take the picture of your group being scared, I didn’t react to the thing that scares everyone else. I won’t spoil it but I can understand why it would scare people.

So we got out and we went to see the pictures and there we are a group of six people with five cowering in fear and me looking slightly interested at the way they pulled off the effect.

I told my girlfriend I was so scared I froze.

So anyway we go have a few drinks and some food at a pub down the way. And on the way back to the car I saw one of the guys from the haunted house vaping in the alley. So I walked up quietly behind him and whispered “come here honey” in a deep gravelly voice. I am 6’2″ and about 275. And I look a little bit like someone you would not want to share a prison cell with.

I was just joking but he jumped and knocked over some bottles that were on a ledge by him. I apologized for my silly prank. But he looked pissed and the other actors got that I was joking and laughed. I didn’t touch him or anything. That would have been rude.

My girlfriend said I was a jerk for scaring him on his break. I feel kind of bad about it but you would think a guy who does that for work would have a better sense of humor about being scared.

Affectionate_Ice9097 Report

My wife (24F), who is pregnant with our first child, asked me if we had plans for Halloween earlier today. It falls on a Monday, and I have to work the next day, so I told her that I didn’t have anything planned, aside from handing out candy to any trick-or-treaters who decide to come by. My wife said that her friend (also 24F) wanted to go trick-or-treating, and that she invited my wife to come along. Neither my wife or her friend have children yet (aside from wife currently being pregnant), so it would just be the two of them going around asking for candy. I told my wife that I think it’s a little inappropriate for an adult woman to go trick-or-treating unless they were accompanying children or something. My wife’s response was that she “looks like a teenager, and could pull it off.” Now I think this is rather silly, but it’s not necessarily a hill I’m willing to die on.

However, the key issue for me is this: My wife’s friend lives in a town 2 hours away, and my wife’s friend lives in a rural area without good cell phone reception. So the situation is no longer just my wife wanting to go trick or treating with her friend, but that they want to go trick or treating 2 hours away in an area with little to no cell phone reception. I feel that I worry a lot about my wife and her well-being already since she’s pregnant, and I don’t want the added stress of her being out trick or treating in a rural area 2 hours away. I basically told her I’m not okay with her going out with her friend in this situation, and she’s quite upset at me as a result
