This hour-long compilation gathers chilling horror stories centered around unsettling encounters during rainy night drives, blending genuine fear with atmospheric tension. Each tale reveals eerie…
Back in high school, I signed up for DoorDash just to see if it was as good as they advertised it.
Initially though, it took me a whole month to finally get myself to take on my first delivery.
But from then on, I did a couple deliveries a day and was really happy with the results.
A couple months after that, I quit my grocery job and started dashing every day after school and even on most weekends.
On this night, I was working extra late because it was a holiday weekend.
I was driving from 8 PM until 2 AM, pretty much just going back and forth from the 24/7 McDonald's.
A little past 2, I picked up another McDonald's order and went on route to the customer.
It was set to be delivered at some sort of a warehouse, and in the notes it said to go in through the side doors and drop it off at the front desk.
When I got there, I pulled into this huge parking lot.
It was mostly empty, only having a few semi-trucks in it.
The building was definitely an old warehouse though, being just a large rectangle with a few windows and a single door at the front.
I checked one more time to make sure I had it right to deliver it through the side door, then pulled around to the side and parked.
The side door was one of those really heavy metal doors with a small glass window.
I looked through that tiny window and didn't see anything but a small and dark entrance room, but the glare from my car's headlights made the window reflective and hard to see through.
I swung it open and was immediately taken back.
It was just as dark as it seemed through the window, and it only had a tiny wall light in the corner that was more of a dim safety light.
There was no front desk, so I walked around the corner and stood at the end of a long unlit corridor.
I knew that most places that have night shift workers don't keep on the unnecessary lights, but this seemed excessive.
I couldn't even see the end of the hallway, so if I were to walk down there, I would be walking into complete darkness.
I took my phone out and checked, now for a third time, to see if I'd gone to the wrong place or through the wrong door.
Everything seemed right, but there wasn't any way I was going to walk through that hallway, and the more I thought about it, the more I realized how quiet the whole building was.
No machinery moving or people talking, not a sound at all.
I decided to call the customer.
I clicked on their name and had it dial the number, and just a moment later, I heard a phone ring echo from the other end of the hallway.
[phone ringing] After another few seconds, it rang again, but it was closer and louder this time.
