This will be a r/NoSleep reccommendations thread, to share everything good, fun plus ongoing series if I find them cool.
1. Box Fort (1 part).
The whole of it is pretty good, with lots of creepy goodness, but the ending makes it extra ghastly. https://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/p6f91/box_fort/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

2. If you see a man with crooked antlers, you need to read this as a matter of life and death. (3 parts, ongoing).
Search and Rescue Woods + Blair Witch project + something else vibes. So far it's looking good. https://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/k14koy/if_you_see_a_man_with_crooked_antlers_you_need_to/

3. Highway Dancer (1 part).
Some gory, fucked-up goodness. Love this blend of fairytale fantasy + horror. https://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/4i7cep/highway_dancer/

5. Has anyone heard of the Left/Right Game? (10 parts).
If you've heard about this one before, there's a reason for it. If you haven't, take some time to read it. Some of the absolute best writing in NoSleep. https://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/7asz8x/has_anyone_heard_of_the_leftright_game_part_1/

6. I'm a Search and Rescue Officer for the US Forest Service, I have some stories to tell (8 parts).
Another massively famous one. If you love urban legends and spooky stories around the fire where you can't tell what's real or not, this is for you. https://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/3iex1h/im_a_search_and_rescue_officer_for_the_us_forest/

7. The Dionaea House (Several Parts in different blogs).
Luckily, http://archive.org still has up all the posts which the story is shaped throughout. The author didn't finish it, which paradoxically adds to the eerieness of the story itself.

10. Hangnail (1 part).
CW: self-harm, gore.
This one is just wonderful, as if Hellraiser had taken the shape of a r/Nosleep story. https://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/4ze9e5/hangnail/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

19. Not a Nosleep story, but an AskReddit thread about "scary urban legends". Looks promising! https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/k9defj/serious_what_are_some_scary_urban_legends_you/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
