This is a scary story from 
Reddit. 

2
00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:06,000
I was at work between one 2:00 
PM when my mom texted me saying 

3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:08,000
she was going to have lunch with
my sister. 

4
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:10,800
We texted for a bit until she 
stopped replying. 

5
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,200
Later when I got home, she told 
me something that honestly 

6
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,840
freaked me out. 
She said she was in her bedroom.

7
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,640
For context, our apartment 
layout is like this. 

8
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,320
When you enter, there's the 
living room and dining room. 

9
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:26,440
Down the hallway you'll find the
kitchen, then my bedroom, my 

10
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:30,120
sister's empty room, and finally
my mom's room at the very end. 

11
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:33,520
From her room, you can only see 
the hallway, not the front door.

12
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,360
While in her room, my mom heard 
my sister come in. 

13
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,600
She swears she heard the front 
door open, the sound of her 

14
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,960
keys, her purse and jacket being
tossed on, the chair near the 

15
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:46,120
entrance, all the normal noises 
my sister makes when she 

16
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:48,520
arrives. 
Even the cats that were sleeping

17
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,680
on my mom's bed jumped down and 
ran to the hallway like they 

18
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:53,480
always do when my sister comes 
home. 

19
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:58,640
But then, silence. 
No footsteps in the hallway, no 

20
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:02,840
door opening, nothing. 
My mom went to greet her, but 

21
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,280
the hallway was empty. 
There was no one there. 

22
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,000
Later, my sister told us that 
around noon, she had texted my 

23
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,080
mom to plan lunch. 
She left her phone on the bed to

24
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,840
shower and get ready, but when 
she came back, it was gone. 

25
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,400
She searched everywhere, 
stripped the sheets, moved the 

26
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,800
bed, checked every corner of the
apartment. 

27
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,760
She even used Find My iPhone, 
but it just showed her phone was

28
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:29,560
somewhere inside her apartment. 
She was so frustrated that she 

29
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:33,480
ended up calling her boyfriend 
on Discord from her PC to ask if

30
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,880
he had somehow taken it by 
mistake, but he hadn't. 

31
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:41,680
After about an hour of searching
and crying, she checked the room

32
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,800
one more time and her phone was 
just lying there in the middle 

33
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,680
of the bed in plain sight like 
it had never been missing. 

34
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,680
The timing really shook me. 
While my sister was desperately 

35
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,520
searching for her phone in this 
reality, my mom heard her arrive

36
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,400
home in hours. 
It was as if somewhere else. 

37
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:03,000
My sister never lost her phone, 
left on time, and actually came 

38
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,960
to have lunch with my mom. 
And for a brief moment, that 

39
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,400
version of her bled through into
our reality. 

40
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,320
I joked about it that night to 
calm myself down, but the more I

41
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,040
think about it, the more it 
feels like it could actually 

42
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,600
have happened. 
Could we really have experienced

43
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,440
A momentary overlap with a 
parallel universe? 

44
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,760
