Creepy message ‘etched’ into homeowner’s shower screen door leaves the internet on edge

We all love a good horror story, don't we? When it's just make-believe, of course. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case for this homeowner – as he discovered something more sinister in the middle of a shower.

Detailing the incident on a Reddit post, the homeowner explained that while he was taking a shower, he noticed a strange detail on the shower screen door.


‘It wasn’t there before. It couldn’t be wiped off or cleaned because it was inside the double pane glass.’

At first glance, the unusual detail looked like water droplets scattered in an odd manner. But upon closer inspection, a few Reddit users theorised that it contained an eerie message for the homeowner to see.

One eagle-eyed social media user got to the bottom of things and altered the exposure on the image to get a clearer visual of the message… And oh boy, it will surely give us nightmares tonight.

‘It says “My death is ok. Sorry it hurts you”.’ the user explained.


Another added: ‘If you make it black and white and adjust the exposure you can see it better.’

The homeowner was astonished by the grim message, saying that he believed it may have been left by his best friend, who was also his cousin. He passed away due to a motorcycle accident several years earlier.

‘He was a prankster. We would always mess with each other.’ he added.

The discovery left dozens of users stunned.


‘Oh god, that just gave me the chills.’ said one.

Another wrote: ‘OK, I’m scared. That’s chilling!’

I do believe in ghost , yes I have seen them and felt them many times.

Have a look at my post on this subject.

My scariest would be this one.

It was around 11 am on a sunny warm day in late October 1991

I was wiping down my table when I caught something from the corner of my eye.
When I looked up standing in front of my oven was a grey cloaked figure similar to a grim reaper . I couldn't see its face, it was not transparent but of solid form.
It let me see it for maybe 10 seconds then disappeared. I knew I saw it and wasn't seeing things.

I felt very uneasy and my 1 year old was having her morning sleep.

I walked through the house telling it what ever was here that it wasn't welcome in my house and to leave .

I went out to tell my husband what I saw , he was working in the Garden. Of course he tried to make excuses.

I then went and rang my nan and said you won't believe what I just saw, before I could explain she finished it for me..... it left my house and went to hers.

My husband heard this conversation and couldn't believe it

Over the next 5 weeks it stayed in her house.
My grandfather was in a nursing home to give nan a break and she felt it had something to do with him.

I couldn't help but think the grey colour nent something so I started calling spiritual churches and it was the 3rd church that told me, they grey ment the spirit was there due to someone ready to pass but refusing to go, it looked like my grandmother was right,

She would wake and see it at night, she would be watching TV only to see it in the doorway of her lounge room.

2nd of December 1991 I got a call to tell me that my beloved nan had a heart attack on Central station and didn't make it.

It was there for her not pa.

Over the coming days at her house while alot of relatives were there strange things happened.

Her daughter inlaw who she didn't like every time she had a shower the water would go boiling hot abd this only happened to her.

I had given nan a wall clock of the last supper which stopped working and when she took it to be fixed they said it couldn't be fixed. It ran by only batteries.

The day of her funeral my sister noticed the click had started to work and was on the right time.

3 days later it was still working , my uncle said maybe the batteries moved or something, he took it down to find there were no batteries in there, nan would have taken them out when she took it for repairs. She had kept it on her wall as she lived the picture. When my uncle put it back up it had stopped working for good

A few days after her death I was sitting having coffee and listening to the radio it was around 5am. I was crying and saying softly if only I knew you are OK then on the radio her favourite song of all time Honey by Bobby Goldsborough started playing.

My grandmother raised me and was more than a mother to me. I should have been with her when she died , my husband was called into work on his day off and being 28 weeks pregnant and 5 under 5 it was impossible for me to go. Her sister passed away a few months earlier and she had to go to the solicitor to sign will papers.

A couple years after my grandmother passed I was 11 weeks pregnant and had a miscarriage, I was haemorrhaging and was rushed to hospital. I kept passing out but kept hearing my nan saying wake up .... be strong . I asked my husband if he could hear her , he couldn't then started worrying he got the nurse.

In surgery I died 3 times 9 min 11 min and 7 min during this time they kept pumping my heart.

I had the most beautiful peaceful dream that I was in a room that was pure and my mother inlaw who I never got to meet was telling me to give her the baby and to go back as it wasn't my time, she said the baby will be with her. I remember holding the baby but it was wrapped up . I then passed it to her and that's when I heard my husbands voice

When I woke up in ICU my eyes were not opened I could hear hubby begging me to wake up and the nurse telling him she cant hear you. This pushed me to wake up . I was on life support .

As soon as they took the life support off I told them my dream, they then explained I had died 3 times and was lucky to be having this conversation.

I had an anaphylactic reaction to the anaesthetic, the muscle relaxants.

I often wonder why it was my mother inlaw who took the baby and not nan but it was nan's voice I heard before surgery
 
Some years ago now my husband and I had bought and restored a large old federation style house in a country town.
I have never believed in ghosts, but in the night, when I would get up to go to the toilet, I would have to walk down a long hallway and past the kitchen. It always sounded as though there was three people in there having a conversation.
If I went into the kitchen the conversation would stop.
I never saw anything and I could never make out what they were saying .
I never felt scared but never mentioned it to my husband thinking he would say I was losing my marbles.
However about 18 months later he mentioned the same phenomenon to me.
Often wondered if previous or current owners heard the same thing.

That doesn't look like water on a shower screen, it looks like textured glass. (and why on Earth would he have his phone in the shower?) It doesn't look like water droplets, it looks like it was written in or etched. If he was so close to the (dead) person he thinks wrote it, why did they wait a few years to contact him? Is there some sort of waiting list for ghosts or something?

I call shenanigans on this whole thing
 
When our son was about 2 we got a second hand suite from a neighbours friends, We hadn't had it above two or three days, it was comfy and went with our decor just fine. The three of us, hubby, me and our son were sat at the dining table enjoying dinner when suddenly sons eyes go as wide as saucers and he says I don't like the man.

We ask him what man thinking he had seen something on tv or something but he says make him go away. We keep asking him what man But he's looking at one of the easy chairs saying I don't like him, make him go away. Of course there was no-one there, we wanted to know more about the man. Our son said he was fat had jeans and a check shirt on and had a beard. and that he shouldn't be in our house.

To settle our son hubby had to go to the chair and tell the man it was time to go, then he escorted him to the front door, opened and closed it and instantly our son was back to his normal happy self.

I was recounting this strange story to our neighbour, ready to have a laugh about it when the colour drained from her face. She said that they never told us but the previous owner of the suite had died in his sleep in one of the chairs, they hadn't told us as they didn't want to spook us. He was a portly gent with a beard, often seen in jeans and a check shirt!

Now I don't know what our son saw or whether he had heard grownups talking or whatever but it sure made me think. We never had any other encounters with this man and our son never mentioned him again.

Children are often more sensitive to these things than adults. My cousin who was about 2 at the time, started crying and wouldn't be calmed. My grandmother asked that whatever it was to be shown to her, and she saw a ghostly figure at the top of the stairs. Turns out the place was actually haunted by previous owner.
 
I have often been able to see people when I was young. For example I was helping my mum washing up. The kitchen window went out on to the path up to our front door. I saw a woman walk up, so I went to open the door, but there was no one. I walked down to the street, but it was empty, too. when I came back in mum wanted to know what had happened. I described that woman to her in all details, then forgot about it. 2 days later I went back to Munich, where I was studying, 800 kms away. My mother called me a week later: a woman who matched my description had turned up exactly a week later, same day, same time, while mum was doing the dishes... the woman was one of a group of gypsies who had never before been to our town!
More recently I lost a client (I m in community care here in Australia). She had been a widow for a long time, and I never met her late husband. I was holding her hand when she stopped breathing. I stayed with her sons that night, then helped them with the funeral preparations. One night coming home I sat down to watch tv and finally relax, when I noticed a man sitting at the other end of my couch. I wasnt scared, though, but felt he was friendly. I just didnt know who he was. I couldnt hear his voice, but "heard" him say "thank you". The next day the sons and I went through her clothes, and there was a checkered shirt in her wardrobe, exactly like the one that man was wearing. I showed it to the younger son, and he explained that it was his dad's favorite and his mum had kept it and worn it to feel closer to her husband.
I have way more similar experiences, but wont bore you with it. I believe that anybody, who is open to it, can connect to another dimension ...
and most children are connected and only educated not to believe in this ...

They say young children can see spirits . I believe your son did see the spirit of the man. How could he describe him exactly.
People don't like talking about spirits because they think others will think they are crazy.

Think of how many kids have imaginary friends then usually by 4 years old they are there no more.

I think the spirit listened to your husband and saw it upset your son.

You were lucky he left and didn't stay
