Yeah, it usually flits really fast until you're left wondering if you really saw it or not. It's really really frightening!
There are two particular rooms in the ICU, almost all the patients who've stayed there and are conscious enough to talk always ask us, "Who's the little girl / boy who's been standing just outside my door (the doors are all glass) during the night?" Eeeeeee yerh!!!

At first I thought someone was playing prank, but it's 3am in the morning, I could hear a pin drop at that time. But the shadowy figure that sprinted off so fast, there were no sound of footsteps.
That's why I didn't went into the trees to investigate further. Thereafter, whenever I pass that area, I will get goosebumps all over.

Imagine the toliet hor before you go in the lights were ok
After you start showering, the lights started to flicker.... and there is no gap at all for any wind to come in save for the gap under the door from outside. But the thing is, the shower was in a closed room and you get this cold wind moving around the bathroom. You can see the shadows of trees on the frosted windows outside and the trees are not moving
The KNS thing was it happened when I was all soapy and I can't step out of the shower lor
It was really quite creepy but I felt comforted coz I can hear my friends outside
Anyway I didn't think so much about it though I didn't feel comfortable and it does feel like someone was watching
Only the next day than I learnt that place was haunted. Haha
There's this other room in the general ward, even the tough nut Nursing Sister had a scary encounter. She doesn't want us to know, but a few seniors there know of it cause she was so scared the day it happened.
She negotiates with the patients and their families and plans for the patients' discharge. She's really nasty to us, but sweet like honey to the patients. She went into this particular room one night, and heard a recently-deceased patient calling her name. Her hair stood on end and she quickly walked out of the room and into the crowded ICU.
That room ah... is very very xie! Everytime I'm assigned to that room, I hate it because at night, the patients usually ask, "What's that up on the ceiling / under the bed?" The patients in Beds 1 and 2 will ask about the 'thing' on the ceiling' whilst those in Beds 3 and 4 will ask about the 'thing' under the beds! And these patients would usually be 'down on their luck', as in, recovering from some major head surgery so they aren't fully themselves yet. A few colleagues told me that usually, patients who have undergone major surgeries will be 'down on their luck' and therefore, can see 'things'.
I usually tell the patients, "I don't know what's on the ceiling / under the bed... and I don't care to know either!"
Rhonda,
At what time did you see those shadowy figures?

Could your friends have played a prank on you?
Actually sometimes I wonder if they are hallucinating coz of the drugs they are on -_-"
Like my grandma is always seeing things but the side effects of one of the medicine she is on has hallucination as a side effect.
For my scary shower experience I am thinking if it was just my imagination or what not coz that building is over 100 yrs old and it used to be a hospital too
This one I only foudn out after I left. Haha

Sometimes, when I'm all alone doing my work because my colleagues are in the other rooms, and if I see / sense something, I will usually try to ignore it and mumble under my breath to leave me alone, I'm just trying to get my work done.
I had a very very frightening encounter once that spooked my colleagues too. We had a long-term patient, an elderly Chinese lady who's lost her wits and is crazy, stay with us for a long time. Because she was nuts, we had to restrain her and she used to scream and yell and kick and curse at us. Months later, after a few hospital admissions, in and out, she passed away in our ward. A few days later, when I was working nights, I was writing my report when I drifted off to sleep without realising it (I was still holding my pen upright ). I saw her standing at the corner, pointing at me and scolding me for restraining her. Then like a ghost, she moved closer and closer to my counter! Suddenly, I gasped very loudly and snapped out of it. My colleagues at the counter were alarmed, all looked at me and asked me what happened. I told them and they said, if I see her in my dreams again, just tell her that she was crazy so no choice, we had to restrain her lor.

Excuse me nurse. Whose the person standing beside you or behind you?
Or start pretending to speak to someone who isn't really there.

Yes, some drugs do cause hallucinations, but why do they all report the same hallucinations?
When I worked in the neuro wards here, the patients do get hallucinations too, but it's always different things seen by different patients.

Eee yerh, you should have just gone to shower in her bathroom instead!
Was there at the end of 70s to early 80s.

Most of my encounters happen around that time too. I believe it's called the witching hour. Why 3 am? I believe it's to mock the holy trinity.
I am very new to this, but I just had an experience that has me a little nervous and scared. A few days ago, actually it was Sunday during the day, I was extremely tired from moving into my new home and I mean brand new, no one has ever lived there before. Anyways I fell asleep about 2:30pm I was in a deep sleep and suddenly I felt like someone pushed my feet to where I was in a fetal position, but on my back, I felt myself struggling and trying to pull my covers off me and whoever or whatever it was, had a hold of my feet and was telling "I have you now" I tried pulling and kicking and yelling my brother's name out twice and nothing. Shortly at about 4pm I woke up and I was a little weirded out, but ok. I didn't discuss this with anyone. So then last night I awoke at exactly 3am, I looked at my cell phone and yes it was 3am, I freaked out, I turned on lights and turned the volume up on my TV as well. I was so scared and I didn't fall back to sleep till 4:45am. Nothing happened, but I did get so scared. What is this??? I'm thinking I should go speak to a priest.

We're not so easy to fool one, k! If one of my patients use this trick, I'll ask if they need an injection to help them sleep.

I have had a few of these 'encounters' before but Bear says it's narcolepsy.
I don't know why but it's not 12 midnight that is frightening. It's usually after 2am that I sense things. And I usually heave a sigh of relief at 4am because experience tells me that if nothing spooky has happened by then, nothing will.

Later you really see one and they don't believe you
I think usually is see the same thing ba like what Rhonda says
In European folklore, the witching hour is the time when supernatural creatures such as witches, demons and ghosts are thought to be at their most powerful, and black magic at its most effective. This hour is typically midnight, and the term may now be used to refer to midnight, or any late hour, even without having the associated superstitious beliefs. The term "witching hour" can also refer to the period from midnight to 3am.

Pinky, you remember my classic encounter, right? The one where more than one of us experienced the same thing at the same place? I think it was five or six of us. That was the first time I believed that what I've seen were not figments of my fertile imagination but it was real because how do you explain five - six people reporting seeing the same thing sitting at the same place and all during night duty? I tell that classic tale to my nurse friends here and they all get spooked out too!

It is called 'sleep Paralysis' no need to see a priest or a medium you are OK.

Bummer!!!
But I don't think I stupid enough to believe that, don't think nurses are authorized to give injections without doctors approval.
Maybe I start singing those 50s chinese songs when you walk out of the room, stop singing when you walk in.
