On Those Nights, I Wished to Come Back

About this episode

A woman confronts unsettling truths about guilt and identity after a strange encounter on a beach.

A quiet beach. A relationship on the edge. And an eerie story that keeps circling around in your head. After being left alone one night, a woman finds herself drawn to the shoreline, where the ocean and sky blur into nothing. But she’s not alone for long. A strange girl appears, knowing too much, saying things she shouldn’t… and slowly revealing a truth far more unsettling than being abandoned. This is a short scary story about guilt, identity, and the moment you realize you might already be disappearing. You can get these ad-free through ScaryPlus.com free for 14 days, then 4.99 per month.
