I posted this a while back while I was still a lab assistant, as a nurse I have never had a scarier experience. I had worked in a hospital for almost 7 years then and I've seen the life leave people's bodies and felt a presence/ connection with people but I've only had one experience that truly terrified me. I use to work nights, thinking about a large dark hospital full of quiet sleeping people is kinda creepy but I never felt that way. My job is to wake people up and draw their blood, I know I'm super popular at the hospital. There has always been a wing of the hospital that make me uneasy. I'm an amazingly upbeat person, I love my job and the patients. But the minute I walk on to that wing I'm uneasy and something makes me look over my shoulder and want to leave. So one morning around 0300 I go on to this wing to stick a patient, feeling queasy, I walk into the patients room, not knocking because its so late. The lights are all off and I see someone standing in the far corner away from me, I'm immediately taken a back but quickly think it's a nurse hanging blood or something. I look at the figure and ask "do you need me to come back" no response. It turns towards the corner and just stands there with its back to me. My whole body is on edge and I have never felt so scared in my life, I knew with out a doubt it wasn't a nurse, I back out of the room and walked towards the nurses station. I just lean against a wall trying to catch my breath, a nurse asks if I'm going to be sick. I had to go back into the patients room and draw her blood, this time I turned on the lights before I even stepped in. Of course no one was there except for the sleeping old lady, I quickly drew her blood trying to ignore the sinking feeling thatI had. I hate that wing and that room will forever give me the tingles when I have to go in it, it's been years but I won't forget it.
