Realistic scary stories. The scariest stories. The dead daughter helped her mother

Boris Andreevich stretched lazily and had just decided to take a sip of freshly brewed coffee, when suddenly the phone rang. But this did not prevent him from taking a sip of the drink and only then answering the call.
“The district police officer is listening,” Boris Andreevich said in a serious voice.
“Boris Arkadyevich,” said a puzzled female voice.
“I’m Andreevich,” corrected the district police officer.
— Excuse me, Boris Andreevich. - It's Lyubov Nikolaevna that worries you. When will you respond to my challenge? the woman inquired.


When you hear from other connoisseurs: they say that men and women are divided into such and such categories by character, the question immediately arises for such “specialists” - are you guys local yourself? Or lagged behind an alien train? ..

I won’t say anything for the men yet, but with regards to the sex that is beautiful in almost all respects, structuring does not work here. It would probably be more correct to count - how many women, so many of their categories. Although, as an exception, I think it is possible to distinguish between two main groups of lovely ladies.


A few years ago, in one of the hunting farms in the Perm Territory, I heard an unusual story. About a strange mushroom picker. Impressed by what he heard, he even wrote a short poem “The Lost Mushroom Picker” on this occasion. Comic. Slightly changing the essence of the story. I did not believe then in its veracity. How many people come up with...

Although the hunter, who told about the strange incident, did not look like a humorist at all. In all seriousness, he said that for the second year in the local forests, mushroom pickers and hunters meet a very strange character.

Back in school, the boys and I noticed a strange trend - each of us had a particularly unlucky body part. Which got more than the rest of the organs and limbs. For someone it turned out to be a hand, for someone it was a leg, for someone it was a bad head. And someone was unlucky in general on the right or, conversely, on the left side of the body. Like me, for example.
Over the years, for the majority, the situation probably levels off, and the “bumps” begin to pour evenly over the entire body. And the number of injuries with age and the advent of the mind noticeably decreases. But not everyone, unfortunately...

This incident was told to me by Nikolai Fedorovich, and it happened in the dashing 90s.

Now Nikolai Fedorovich is 70 years old, and I simply adore him. A sort of aged Vasily Terkin with an inescapable sense of humor and a shock of gray curls. A real lively, we should be like that at this age.
And then Fedorovich was about fifty dollars, and one day they decided to throw the net. The grater for crucian carp has already ended, you can put nets. And so, Fedorych, his dear friend - Fortuna (such a whore), and tribe Fortunin - Vitek, loaded up and went fishing.

The plan was this: throw the nets, and pull them out early in the morning and go home. Everyone has things to do, there is no time to drink vodka, and you have to deal with fish.

This story is not a product of my imagination. Perhaps it will not seem scary to you, rather mysterious and sometimes dreary. And yet… here it is…

When I was little, every summer my parents took me to my grandmother in the glorious city of Yaroslavl (you will recognize it from a thousand. Off-screen laughter). I loved to spend this time with my beloved grandmother, who baked breathtaking pies and cheesecakes, groomed and cherished her well-fed granddaughter, told interesting stories from her life. A small preamble: my grandmother devoted most of her life to working on the railroad, changing a bunch of not very profitable positions: switchman, lineman, circle driver ... I can’t remember everyone.

Today I will tell you three incredible stories. Two of them were shared with me by close people, the adequacy of which I have no doubt. The third attraction happened to me.

History 1.

This story was told to me by a colleague with whom I have been close friends for a long time. Let's call her Lena. She has a room in a hostel in the county town N, which has been successfully rented out for many years. Lena has been living in the capital for a long time and does not need rented housing.

The other day a colleague came in confused and quiet. Naturally, I felt itching to bombard her with questions from the series: “What happened? What's up?" During a smoke break, Lenka told me a cool story:

Remember my dorm room? I gave it to a classmate recently.

Last weekend we went to Krasnaya Gorka to the cemetery, to see our relatives. So it turns out that once a year we meet at the cemetery. Over a glass or two, they started talking in the end for the mystical. A relative said that a few months ago they had such a story, and earlier - another one ... Further from her words.

We sleep, then, with her husband, or rather, we are trying to sleep. And then we hear strong booms, we thought explosions in the street. The husband ran out to the balcony, listening - the street is quiet. And in the meantime, the boom continues. We guess that they come from inside the house itself. The husband jumps out onto the stairwell, rattles in the stairwell. Someone persistently kicks the door, it sounds like a foot, and yells: “Natasha, open it !!!” The husband leans over the span, but did not see anything.

I will not use lyrical digressions and will go straight to the point. About two or three months ago, I began to be afraid to fall asleep, a series of repetitive events that caused this fear to appear.

Every time I went to bed and started to fall asleep, I woke up from the fact that someone began to choke me. I opened my eyes and saw in front of me one of my own relatives. The first time it was "mom". The face of “it” was similar to her, but there was anger in the eyes and gradually the features of the face began to distort in a terrible grimace. I experienced intense horror and began to scream very loudly in fear. Then it turned out that I seemed to be sleeping ...

I have never been a believer, and I treated all kinds of mysticism with interest, but without much confidence. However, what has begun to happen to me over the past year calls into question all the confidence that previously lived in me ...

I don’t know if these dreams are somehow connected with the negative events that have occurred in general in my life, or if this has always been my feature, which I didn’t attach any importance to before. I am a person with a rich imagination and a creative mindset, always, as far as I can remember, I saw colorful dreams and no less colorful nightmares, but I attributed everything only to my raging fantasy.

The story was told by a pious man, in principle, like his wife, so he asked not to mention their names and the city in which it happened, otherwise “you never know”. Well, let it be his will. Further from his words.

It was in 2017, somewhere in the beginning or middle of May. The weather was sunny, but the puddles from the melted snow had not yet really dried up, there was this vile slush everywhere. We then walked around the city with our gang: me, my wife, and a friend with my girlfriend. It was a day off, there were a lot of people around, too, apparently, they went out in the sun to bask. We decided to sit on a bench near the park. We sit and talk about life. We look, not far, about twenty meters from us, some strange guy is hanging around.

When it comes to strange, at first glance, inexplicable things, ghostly anomalies that do not have a scientific or other sound explanation, we attribute mysterious and even magical qualities to these things. I want to present you a list of 10 strange, unsolved cases from life, the explanation of which no one has found.

10th place. Poltergeist made of coal

January 1921

Purchasing coal for his hearth in winter, Mr. Frost from Hornsey (London) had no idea how dangerous this purchase was and how much trouble coal could bring at first glance. After the first portion of solid fuel was sent to the fireplace, it immediately became obvious that it was somehow "wrong". Hot coal pebbles exploded in the furnace, destroyed the protective grill and rolled out onto the floor, after which they disappeared from view and appeared only in the form of bright sparks in another room. This did not end the matter. The Frost family began to notice strange things in their house, knives and forks floated through the air, as if they were in open space. The Reverend Al Gardiner and Dr. Herbert Lemerle witnessed an unusual and frightening phenomenon.

There were several versions regarding the devilry taking place in the Frost house. Skeptics put all the blame on the sons, who allegedly decided to play a prank on their parents. Others were sure that these were the tricks of miners who mixed dynamite with coal (later this version was tested and refuted). Still others believed that the raging spirit of the dead miners, resting in a corner and disturbed by the Frosts, was to blame.

The latest news that has been preserved about the Frosts is disappointing. On April 1 of the same year, five-year-old Muriel Frost died, allegedly from fright when she saw a poltergeist. Her brother Gordon was so shocked by the death of his sister that he was hospitalized with a nervous breakdown in the hospital. The further fate of the family is shrouded in mystery ...

9th place. rain of seeds

February 1979


The coal incident is not the only curiosity in England. For example, in 1979 it rained seeds in Southampton. Seeds of watercress, mustard, corn, peas and beans rained down from the sky, covered in an incomprehensible jelly-like shell. Amazed by what he saw, Roland Moody, who was in a home mini-conservatory with a glass roof, ran outside to get a better look at what was happening. There he met his neighbor, Mrs. Stockley, who said that this was not the first time that this had happened the previous year. As a result of the seed rain, Moody's entire garden, as well as the gardens of three of his neighbors, were covered with seeds. What was the cause of the strange atmospheric phenomenon, the police failed to find out.

Unusual rain repeated several more times, after which it did not happen again. Mr. Moody alone collected 8 buckets of watercress on his territory, not counting the seeds of other plants. He later grew them into watercress and claimed it tasted great.

One of the episodes of the series "The Mysterious World" by Arthur C. Clarke, aired in 1980, is dedicated to this incident. Until now, an adequate opinion regarding the strange rain does not exist.

8th place. The mysterious death of Netta Fornario

November 1929


The main character of the following strange story is Nora Emily Edita "Netta" Fornario, a writer who considered herself a healer, a resident of London. In August or September 1929, she left London for Iona, an island off the west coast of Scotland, where she died under mysterious circumstances. Among the versions of her death are psychic murder, heart failure, the action of hostile spirits.

Arriving on Iona, Netta set about exploring the island. During the day she traveled, and at night she searched for traces of the spirits of the island, with whom she tried in every possible way to contact. Her search dragged on for several weeks, after which, on November 17, her behavior changed dramatically. Netta hastily packed up her things and intended to head back to London. She told her friend, Mrs. McRae, that she was telepathically wounded after receiving messages from other worlds. It happened at night, so Mrs. McRae, apparently looking at the chic silver jewelry of the healer and fearing for her health, persuaded her to go on the road in the morning.

The next day, Netta went missing. Her body was later found on a "fairy mound" near Loch Staonaig. The corpse lay on a cross made of turf, completely naked under a black cloak, covered with scratches and abrasions. There was a knife nearby. The legs were beaten to the blood, as a result of jogging over rough terrain. Was Netta killed by a maniac, died of hypothermia, or by an absurd accident, is unknown. Discussions on this issue have not yet ended.

7th place. fire poltergeist

April 1941


After finishing breakfast, farmer William Hackler, a resident of Indiana (USA), went outside to get some fresh air. After leaving the house, he felt that his clothes smelled of smoke. Without paying much attention to it, he went to the barn. A few minutes later he returned back to the house, where we found a fire in the bedroom (the house was without electricity) - the walls were burning. The local fire brigade quickly arrived at the scene and extinguished the fire. But that was only the beginning of a hard day for the Hacklers...

Immediately after the fire engine left, a mattress caught fire in the guest room. The fire was located directly inside the mattress. Fires broke out in various places (including under the cover of the book) and rooms throughout the day. By evening, the number of extinguished fires reached 28. Having played enough, the fiery poltergeist no longer disturbed Mr. Hackler and his family. The same, in turn, demolished the old wooden house and built a new one in its place, from non-combustible lumber.

6th place. Third Eye

November 1949


Students of one of the universities of South Carolina in the city of Columbia (USA) returned late at night from the theater on Longstreet. At one point, they froze in place, confronted by a strange man in a silver suit, who then moved the cover of a nearby manhole and disappeared into the sewers. From that moment on, the strange man was nicknamed "the sewer man". A little later, this "character" again made it known about its existence, but in a more terrible case. In April 1950, in one of the lanes, a policeman noticed a man near a pile of mutilated chicken carcasses. It happened in the dark, the policeman sent a flashlight in the direction of an incomprehensible object, and was stunned when he saw a man with three eyes. The third eye showed off right in the center of the forehead. While the policeman came to his senses and called for reinforcements on the radio, the mysterious creature disappeared from view.

The third meeting with the "sewer man" took place in the 60s in the tunnels under one of the universities. After the tunnels were carefully examined, but no clear evidence of the existence of a three-eyed man was found. Who or what is he? Man? Ghost? Alien? No one knows, but random meetings continued until the early 90s.

5th place. Connecticut stylet

February 1925


For several months, women from Bridgeport (Connecticut, USA) were intimidated by a "phantom stiletto" that strikes the chest and buttocks and then hides in an unknown direction. The victims of an unknown, but very real criminal, were 26 persons, whose bodies felt all the pain and anguish from powerful blows of sharp weapons.

The attacker did not adhere to a specific type of victim, women were chosen spontaneously and randomly. While the victim screamed in pain and came to his senses, the perpetrator quickly ran away, not allowing himself to be identified. Police investigations led nowhere, the identity of the "stylet tormentor" was never identified. In the summer of 1928, the attacks changed dramatically and were never repeated. Who knows, maybe the maniac got old and artosis began to torment him ...

4th place. electric girl

January 1846


Do you think "X" people are fiction? Wrong, some of the characters are quite real. At least one. A fourteen-year-old resident of La Perriere in Normandy began to frighten her comrades with unusual abilities: approaching her, people received electric shocks, chairs moved away when she tried to sit down, some objects soared into the air as if they were light and weightless floats. Later, Angelina received the nickname "electric girl".

Not only those around, but also the girl herself suffered from the unusual abilities of the body. She often suffered from convulsions. In addition, by attracting various objects to herself, Angelina received painful injuries. Parents considered their daughter possessed by the devil and took her to church, but the priest convinced the unfortunate that the reason for their child's abnormality lies not in spirituality, but in physical features.

After listening to the rector, the parents took their daughter to the scientists in Paris. After examination, the famous physicist Francois Arago concluded that the unusual qualities of the girl are associated with electromagnetism. Scientists invited Angie to participate in research and testing that were supposed to make her normal. In April 1846, a few months after the start of the program, the "electric girl" forever said goodbye to her amazing abilities.

3rd place. Another fire poltergeist

January 1932


Housewife Mrs. Charlie Williamson from Blundenboro (North Carolina, USA) was wildly horrified when her chintz dress broke into a bright flame for inexplicable reasons. At this point, she was not standing near a fireplace, stove or other heat source, she was not smoking or using any flammable products. Luckily, her husband and teenage daughter were at home, ripping off her flaming dress before it burned the unfortunate woman.

The adventures of Mrs. Williamson did not end there. On the same day, the pants in her closet burned to the ground. The trials by fire continued the next day, when, in the presence of witnesses, for unknown reasons, a bed and curtains in another room caught fire. Spontaneous combustion continued for three days, after which the Williamsons surrendered to an unknown element and left the house. The housing was examined by firefighters and police, no reasons for what was happening were identified. On the fifth day, the fires stopped by themselves and no longer disturbed the owners of the house. Thankfully, no one was hurt by the fire.

2nd place. blind reading

January 1960


We note right away that we are not talking about blind people who have learned to read special books by moving their fingers along the bulges on paper, but about a completely ordinary girl, sighted and healthy. The originality of Margaret Foos was that she could read ordinary books blindfolded. Her father called this phenomenon psychic vision through the skin. He himself taught his daughter this incredible skill and hurried to prove the uniqueness of the method to scientists.

In 1960, Mr. Foos arrived with his daughter in Washington DC to participate in a scientific study. For the duration of the experiment, psychiatrists put on Margaret's eyes "fool protection" - a tight bandage. For the purity of the experience, the father was taken to the next room. Blindfolded, using only her fingers, the girl was able to read the pages of the Bible, kindly provided by scientists. After that, she was offered to play checkers, recognize different pictures, with which Margaret successfully coped.

Despite the fact that the girl managed to pass all the tests, psychiatrists could not explain how she managed to do this. They insisted on their own, arguing that it was impossible to see without eyes, that what was happening was a deception.

1st place. sniper ghost

1927-1928 years


For two years, a mysterious "ghost sniper" terrorized the residents of Camden, New Jersey. The first incident occurred in November 1927, when Albert Woodruff's car was shot at with a gun. The windows of the car were riddled with bullets, but the investigation did not yield any results - not a single cartridge case was found at the scene. Later, two city buses, windows of houses and shop windows were damaged by mysterious shelling. As in the first case, the perpetrators and shell casings were not found. The good news is that no one was hurt by the actions of a ghost or a real criminal.

The mysterious sniper hunted not only in Camden, residents of the cities of Lindenwood and Collingswood, New Jersey, as well as Philadelphia and Pennsylvania, suffered from his tricks. Most often, the victims were private cars and urban transport (buses, trolleybuses), residential buildings. Only in one of many cases did the witness hear the shots, but did not see anything or anyone.

The attacks stopped abruptly in 1928. Later, people suffered only from abnormal imitators who wanted to act as the famous "ghost sniper".

In the life of every person there are such incidents and stories, telling which palms sweat, and hair stand on end. Of course, in fact, most of them are ordinary coincidences, but it is not always possible to believe in this. In fact, there is enough mysticism in our world, therefore another story, out of the ordinary, can happen to absolutely anyone. Next, we will talk about the most mysterious and terrible cases that have happened to people.

The case took place in Latvia, namely in Riga. The young man recently got married. He decides to get together with friends and chat a little. Of course, it was not without alcohol. All night long friends buzzed to the fullest and had fun like the last time. A lot of alcohol and drugs were present at the party.

After a few hours of fun, everyone began to disperse to their rooms to rest and sleep. One of the friends decides to stay in the kitchen with the hero of the occasion in order to spend the night behind dialogues "according to concepts." When all the alcohol had already been drunk, and the friends could barely stand on their feet, it was decided to go to bed. Young man, who had recently become a husband, went to his wife's room, and the friend went to another, where there was no one.

This is where the mysterious story begins, based on real events. As soon as the guy lay down on the sofa, he immediately felt something was wrong: strange squeaks and exclamations, obscene words uttered in a whisper. Of course, this situation could scare anyone. Then a shadow flickered in the mirror opposite the bed, which pretty much frightened the young man. He was afraid to get up, because it is not known what will be expected of him. Then such knocks were heard, similar to driving a nail with a hammer. Immediately there was such an idea that alcohol and drugs made themselves felt. This could be considered true, if not for a strong knock, after which the guy could not stand it and turned on the light.

What he discovers then is simply mind-blowing. There was a hammer on the floor, the knocks of which had been heard earlier. A strong fear and a sense of self-preservation took over, and the guy ran away to sleep in another room. Waking up, he told a story friends. But they weren't laughing. It turns out that this house was built by an adult man who traveled the world. Soon he hanged himself from a tree next to the estate. How and why he did this is still unknown. And his ghost still haunts the house.

Reading this mysterious story based on real events, goosebumps appear on the skin, and the hair simply stands on end. Sometimes you are amazed at what happens to people.

A young girl who works in the office all day long, practically did not appear in her apartment, as the work absorbed her from head to toe. The only thing she did while at home was washing in the shower, cooking and sleeping. There was simply no time for other things. The girl did not have fun and did not invite friends to visit, as the malicious boss did not give rest to the young lady.

And once such a moment came that the apartment had to be sold. It was removable, and the owner found a buyer. Consequently, the girl had to move out of the living area belonging to another person. According to the rental agreement, there was only one week left until the next payment. That's how long it took to find a new apartment.

Hire realtors there was no money, no time. Therefore, the young lady went to friends who could help her. And, it would seem, a good opportunity turned up to live in a friend's apartment for a small cost. But there is one problem - grandfather recently died at this place, and a year before his grandmother. For some reason, the landlady decided not to tell this to her own friend. Apparently she wanted more money.

Having packed her bags, the girl still moves to a new apartment. Of course, she again appeared there very rarely, since it was the end of the year, and it was necessary to draw up various reports for the entire working period. There were no outings at all.

One day the chef decided to make a gift, giving the girl a day off. She spent the whole day cleaning the apartment. In the evening, tired of all the fuss, she drank a glass of red wine and turned on the TV, which showed cartoons. Suddenly young lady heard her lock open. A strong fear gripped her. Then the men's steps went to the kitchen. For several minutes the tenant of the apartment lay in perplexity. Later, having gained strength, she still decides to go check. But there was no one there.

The next day, she told this story to her friend, who rented her an apartment. She could not restrain herself and said that it was on the sofa where the girl was sleeping that both grandfather and grandmother died. Most likely, it was their spirits that traveled around the house. A few days later, the resident packed her things and left. She didn't talk to her friend anymore.

A mystical real story from the life of real people originates in the nineties of the last century. Perestroika is in the yard, no one has money, everyone survives as best they can. And now the unremarkable family lived absolutely like everyone else: a small apartment, two children, an unloved and low-paid job.

But one day the head of the family declares that bought a new car. There were many quarrels over this purchase, since there was no money even for food, and my father buys transport. The new purchase was an old Audi 80 with over 200,000 miles on it. And from the first day, for some reason, the car disliked its owner: it constantly broke down, some parts fell off, rust "ate" the body.

My father spent days and nights in the garage, trying to fix a new problem. Every day presented miracles: a puncture of a wheel is already such a common thing that the new owner did not lose heart at all, but dutifully repaired his “swallow”.

And one day, when patience was just running out, it was decided sell car. Before preparing for the sale, the family decides to wash the car inside and out to create a more or less presentable look. The children decided to clean up the trash under the seats, where some kind of package was found.

In this bag were various letters in which there were all kinds of curses and conspiracies. Of course, this inspires great fear. It is not known who and why left these inscriptions in the car, but they made me very nervous. It was decided to dispose of all curses by burning. So they did.

After that, some strange things started. For example, someone stole a wallet from a mother. Gradually, the problems only gained momentum. One of their major problems was work. For some reason, the boss became so angry with the husband and wife that he decides to deprive them of their salaries. Accordingly, it was necessary to look for new sources of income, because a family with children would simply die of hunger.

And here is the buyer for the car. Having arrived at the appointed time at the right place and after inspecting the vehicle, he decides to still buy a car. After spending small test drive, the buyer drove into the pit and punctured the wheel. This is just where his problems begin. Still, he decides to buy a "cursed" car, unaware of its past. The deal went through, the money was received, the buyer left.

What just does not happen in life. Sometimes it's a complete mystery.

Read mystical stories with a happy ending.

Taxi driver clairvoyant

I have always disliked my appearance. It seemed to me that I was the most - the most ugly girl in the universe. Many people told me that this was not true, but I did not believe it. I hated mirrors. Even in cars! I avoided any mirrors and reflective objects.

I was twenty-two, but I didn't date anyone. Guys and men ran away from me the way I ran from my own appearance. I decided to go to Kyiv to get distracted and unwind. I bought a train ticket and went. I looked out the window, listened to pleasant music ... I don’t know what exactly I expected from this trip. But my heart longed for this city. This one, not the other!

Time on the road went by quickly. I was very sorry that I did not have time to enjoy the road as it should. And I didn’t manage to take a picture, as the train raced unbearably fast. Nobody was waiting for me at the station. I even envied those whom I met.

I stood for three seconds at the station and headed to the taxi rank to get to the hotel where I had booked in advance. I got into a taxi and heard: “Are you the girl who is not sure about her appearance, and who still does not have a half?”. I was surprised, but answered positively. Now I am married to this man.

And how he knows all this about me is still a secret.

The most mystical stories

Pray, or Stories of Miraculous Salvation

I was orphaned at an early age. One old woman took pity on me and taught me to read the amulet prayer, and said at the same time:
- Do not be lazy. Legs out of bed - and read. The tongue won't fall off. But you will always be protected from trouble.
I have always done so. And now I will tell you about two unusual cases from my life.

Inner voice. Story one

In my early youth I swam in the Amur. Nearby, a steamboat pulled a barge upstream. I did not know that the barge, which has a rounded bottom at the bottom, draws under itself when moving, and swam close to it. I felt myself being pulled under the bottom of the ship. An inner voice said, "Dive in." I took a deep breath and dived in. He endured as much as he could. I surfaced - the barge was fifteen meters away from me. If not for the inner voice, I would have drowned.

Inner voice. Story two

And the second case. The area in which I live is replete with stone deposits (something like limestone). Cellars have been built here from time immemorial from this stone. The stones were tightly fitted to each other, no cementing mortar was used. To dismantle such a basement, you need to dig a large layer of earth from above. And experienced craftsmen do so. From the inside of the basement, they break out the back wall, and then, retreating to the exit, they gradually, by a meter, bring down the vault. When I needed to tear down the basement, I did just that. I broke the back wall, and then someone called me:
- Gregory!

I got out of the basement - no one is there. He stood and looked around - no one was there. Weird. I distinctly heard that I was called. I stand at a loss, even some kind of timidity took over. And then there was a roar. The entire vault of the basement collapsed. Stay inside - perish! After that, decide whether to believe or not to believe in otherworldly forces ...

New mystical story


Once at Christmas, the girls were guessing

This story took place on the eve of the brightest holiday of the year - Christmas! And you can't call it anything other than a miracle. I was 19 years old and at that time I was going through a personal tragedy, my boyfriend left me very cruelly, he went to his best friend.

The mood was not festive at all. I took a bottle of semi-sweet and alone, sitting in the kitchen, I began to sob about my bitter fate.

Then the doorbell rang, it was my girlfriends who came to visit me to share my grief with me, well, and a bottle of wine, of course.

Having drunk a little, someone offered to tell fortunes on the betrothed. Everyone laughed together, but agreed.

Having written the names of the men on pieces of paper, they took them out of the makeshift bag one by one. I came across the name "Andrey". At that time, of Andreev's acquaintances, I had only a cousin, and I was skeptical about such fortune-telling.

Suddenly, one of her friends suggested that we continue the fun on the street, and the whole crowd went in search of adventure. In continuation of the Christmas fortune-telling, they began to run up to passers-by and ask for a name. And what do you think? "My" passer-by was called Andrey. It was getting more interesting.

That same evening, in the park, I met my future husband ... no, not Andrey! His name was Artyom and I safely forgot about all these fortune-telling.

5 years have passed and on Christmas Eve, my husband and I sat and talked about the baptism of children. Artem suggested that we give our daughter a middle name at baptism. To my dumb question, he replied that he himself was given two names, the first Artem, and the second ANDREY!

When I remember the story of five years ago, goosebumps ran through my body. And how can you not believe in the Christmas miracle?!
