There are a lot of jobs out there that require people to enter the homes of strangers on a regular basis. Have you ever wondered about the crazy shit electricians, carpet cleaners, social workers, realtors, and movers have seen? Well one curious redditor asked people with these sorts of occupations to recount some of the most bizarre scenes they've happened upon while on the job. While most of these stories are pretty hilarious, a few of them are straight up disturbing. Some of these people could seriously write a book about their experiences! We've gathered some highlights from the Reddit thread to feed your curiosity. 

There's been a lot of talk about Bong Joon-Ho's Oscar-winning Parasite, but this true and incredibly disturbing story kind of trumps it. Horror writer Grady Hendrix shared a chilling tale back in October about innocent food-sneaking gone incredibly wrong. Kids are known for sneaking around, and one night when Hendrix intended to sneak-eat his family's leftovers, he discovered a strange man in his kitchen consuming the contents of the family fridge. It doesn't stop there. His family didn't believe him, but later, some disturbing proof of his "run-in" comes to light. And we are not envious of the experience. 

If you're in the mood for some spooky content but don't have a lot of time on your hands, then these creative two-sentence horror stories are just the thing for you. Now have fun sleeping tonight!
