6 Scary Ghost Stories Like “Dear David” That’ll Make You Just As Terrified

All it takes is a little boy named David to completely stop the internet in its tracks. But he certainly isn’t like ordinary children — just ask Adam Ellis, the BuzzFeed artist who claims David’s malicious spirit haunts his Manhattan apartment. Ellis cannot always provide the spooks we’ve come to crave in our newsfeeds, so these scary ghost stories like “Dear David” are great alternatives.

Just in case you aren’t familiar with the viral paranormal sensation, let’s get you up to speed. A young boy named David with a disfigured head appeared to Ellis in a nightmare one evening, but it wasn’t before long that the nightmare morphed into reality. Soon, the artist and author felt as though he was “paralyzed by fear,” and one encounter quickly followed another. David allegedly moves objects in the apartment, appears in Ellis’ photographs, and leaves his belongings behind (which Ellis documents on Twitter). It’s certainly an interesting experience, and each social media update leaves fans curious about what’s going to happen next.

Though some people cannot turn away from the paranormal sensation, others are beginning to question David’s authenticity. Regardless, those on social media have become accustomed to a Halloween state of mind thanks to “Dear David.” Since there is only so much Ellis can post — and so much we can expect from one alleged spirit — we have to find other means in order to get those thrills and chills… like these scary stories.
