People Confess Their Creepiest, Darkest Secrets


Reddit can be a great platform for engaging with the opinions of others and learning about all kinds of new things. It can also, at times, be a place where some people feel so comfortable that they are willing to share whatever is on their minds, for better or for worse. When some users log on and start typing, they truly feel that they are safe to share literally anything with the online community, including some of their deepest secrets that they would never tell their friends in the real world. For hilarious and dark revelations alike, look no further than a thread discussing the “creepiest confessions” in the website’s history to see that there really is no limit to what people are willing to tell when protected behind the virtual curtain of their internet username! Just be warned, sometimes you can never unread the things people tell you on Reddit...

19. Loophole in the System

A while back now a guy went into my parents' house and attacked a friend of ours, once the police arrived they said it wasn't considered B&E because the door was unlocked and no one over the age of 18 told him to leave. I've wanted to just go around my neighborhood walking in and slightly moving s*** in other people's houses since.

Wasn't there a guy who confessed that he would go into people's houses if they left their door unlocked? IIRC, he would check doors, if they weren't locked he'd let himself in and just sort of wander around their house looking at their stuff and sometimes helping himself to their food.

8. Always Read the Ingredients…

The one that still bothers my sleep is the guy who accidentally cooked his girlfriend's cat. I can't find the thread anymore, but I felt bad for the guy because I like animals and I could see something like what happened to him happening to me, so I always double check my oven before turning it on. I think he was engaged and she dumped him.

7. Survivor’s Guilt

I remember one where the guy as a joke, while driving with 4 friends, reached over and jerked the steering wheel to mess with his buddy. The car crashed, killing the other 3 people, but left him alive. He never told anyone he caused it and has to live with it every day.

6. Just Plain Sad

Not a confession, but the creepiest thing/link/post I have ever seen on reddit was the link to the audio file of the jonestown suicide thing where you can hear the kids crying because they don't want to take the cyanide pill. The parents are promising them it will be all right, but they are literally killing their kids on tape.

1. That Escalated Quickly

When I was in middle school (about I'd say 11/12) one of my male classmates made friends with a college student at some 4H club. He invited him into a middle-school group chat on AIM and the guy proceeded to contact nearly every girl in there, talk to them romantically, and set up dates. I was an over-confident middle schooler and knew he was a creep, and even still? I was kind of flattered by the attention for a little while, so I get how he was gaining actual traction. He'd go as far as to say he loved each girl and would offer to dress like he was younger so no one would mind.

He bought us cigarettes and booze, which was cool, but that was about it. He disappeared after it came out that he was assaulting his cousin. Yerp, people are the worst.
