A friend of mine once stayed in an old inn in Provincetown. At night, he heard the sound of footsteps pacing back and forth outside his room. When he opened the door, there was no one there. The next day, he learned that the inn had a history of hauntings, and previous guests had also reported similar experiences.
There was a story about a fisherman who went out to sea near Provincetown. He never returned, but his boat was found drifting back to shore weeks later. Inside, there were strange markings on the walls of the cabin, like some unrecognizable language. And the fisherman's log was filled with pages of scribbles that made no sense. It was as if he had encountered something out there that drove him mad.
One scary story from Provincetown could be about the old lighthouses. Legend has it that at night, the ghost of a long - lost lighthouse keeper wanders around. He was said to have drowned trying to save a ship in a storm, and his spirit is still searching for the sailors he couldn't reach. People claim to see a faint figure in a lighthouse keeper's uniform near the water's edge.
The legend of the sea monster off the coast of Provincetown is quite terrifying. Sailors used to tell of a huge, tentacled beast that would rise from the deep and capsize their ships. They described it as having glowing eyes and a massive body that could wrap around an entire vessel.
In Provincetown, there are tales of a stretch of beach where people have reported seeing a figure emerging from the ocean during a full moon. This figure, described as half - human and half - something else, would make a wailing sound.

Sure. There was this time when a girl bought a dress from Forever 21 for a special occasion. When she put it on at home, she noticed some strange stains that she hadn't seen in the store. It was really spooky as if the dress had some sort of mystery behind it.
Yes. There's a story about a local artist's studio in Provincetown. One night, the artist was working late when suddenly all the lights started to flicker. Then, a cold wind blew through the room even though all the windows were closed. The artist saw a face in the window, a pale and distorted face that seemed to be looking right at him. After that night, the artist never worked in that studio again.
Sure. There could be an experience where a group of friends got lost in a less - visited part of the convention during Anime Central. As they wandered, they saw strange figures in the shadows that seemed to move in unnatural ways. It was really terrifying for them.
Haunted houses are a common spooky element. For example, in the tales of the Lizzie Borden House, the very walls seem to hold the memory of the grisly murders. The unexplained noises like creaking floors and phantom axe - swings add to the fear factor.
A spooky 911 story could be that of a person who was near the World Trade Center on 9/11. They reported seeing strange apparitions in the smoke and dust in the days following the attacks.

Well, in one thirty mile zone casting, a make - up artist shared a horror - like experience. She was working on an actor's make - up for a horror - themed role.

It was really a spooky encounter during the casting.
