    If you thought scary equaled creepy sounds and gruesome costumes, this list is about to prove you wrong. Here are the true horror stories from Dubai that will probably not send chills down your spine.

     

     

     

    The Missing Chopper

     

    1

     

    “I ordered an UberCHOPPER once and couldn’t get it because someone beat me to it.”

     

     

     

    The Nightmare Club 

     

    2

     

    “I went to this nightclub the other day and I thought it was Ladies Night but OMG it wasn’t and I had to pay for my drinks. CAN YOU [REDACTED] IMAGINE?”

     

     

     

    It Died

     

    3

     

    “I brought friends who were visiting to the Burj Khalifa and when I went to take a picture, I found my phone on 1% and I didn’t have my charger.”

     

     

     

    The Changing Face

     

    8

     

    “A friend of mine was celebrating his birthday at JBR. On the day of the birthday, I woke up with a big ugly zit on my face. I didn’t go.”

     

     

     

    The Visitor

     

    4

     

    “I had a bad fever and didn’t go to work for a week. All I did was lie in bed. I remember seeing a man in a white coat and when I asked why he was there, he replied, ‘I’m just making sure you’re okay’.”

     

     

     

    The Unwanted Selfie

     

    5

     

    “I was at ComicCon when I spotted Khal Drogo from Game of Thrones. I wanted to take a selfie with him when they stopped me and told me that I had to pay money for that to happen. Rude.”

     

     

     

    The Haunted Garden

     

    6

     

    “I’ve never been to Dubai Miracle Garden, so last weekend I decided that I actually had to go to make an effort, instead of being lazy. On the very same day, I was invited to the opening of a new hot spot in town and I ended up losing my phone that night. I blame the Miracle Garden.”

     

     

     

    My Father’s Ghost

     

    7

     

    “My dad invited me for dinner. I went there and waited for half an hour before I decided to call him. The operator said this number is out of service and not working. A minute later the same number called. My dad’s number. He told me he was on his way and apologized for being late.”

    Found in a box of bananas from the Philippines on the River Nile at an early age, Kurt is born to a Filipino mother and an Egyptian father which means emotionally he is completely screwed. Kurt is a bubbling cauldron of masculinity aside from his girly hair, camp voice and passion for One Direction.
