I live in an apartment building next to the Santa Monica Pier. One night at about 1 AM I hear a helicopter flying right next to my building. I go to my window to check it out. I look out just in time to see a car speed down the pier followed by at least 6 police cars and a helicopter overhead. The helicopter has a bright spotlight trained on the car in front. The guy in the car gets about half way down the pier and then gets out of his car and starts running toward the far end of the pier. Now the thing is, there is a police station located on the pier and he was unknowingly running straight towards it. I could see flashlights coming from where the police station is and the dude running in that direction. I was like "holy ****, they're about to ambush this dude and arrest him! He has no idea there's a police station right ahead!" Well apparently he figured out they were about to tackle him because he makes a sharp right and jumps right off the pier on to the sand below. It's at least a 20 foot drop. Dude lands on his back and then gets up and starts sprinting down the beach parallel to the ocean. Now, I've been able to see all of this because of the helicopter's spotlight but when the guy made it to the sand, the spotlight momentarily lost track of him and therefore so did I. He straight up disappeared into the darkness. I don't know if they ever caught him or not but I don't think so because for the rest of the night there were helicopters in the sky with spotlights over the water, boats in the ocean with lights, and tons of cop cars on the pier and in the adjacent parking lot, seemingly searching for him. I never heard about this event or saw it on the news or read about it anywhere. It's like it never happened.
When I was 3 or 4 I was helping my mom retrieve our Christmas decorations from a storage locker we have in the garage of our apartment building. The building is pretty big so there are three levels of underground parking. This was well before we had valet service so it was always quiet down there and very creepy, especially the further down you go. In any case, our storage locker was located on the lowest level in a long hallway full of storage lockers. At the end of the hall was a door leading to more lockers but the thing is, this door had no handle. Where the handle should be it was just an empty hole. On the other side it was just straight darkness because no one was in the next hallway I guess. So my mom is unloading her stuff and I'm just staring at the door with no handle, fascinated by it; I was 3 or 4 and had never seen a door without a handle. Suddenly, as I'm staring at the door, an eye appears in the empty hole and peers through it right at me. It stays just for a second and then leaves. I wasn't scared, just confused. I figured it was just my dad, maybe he got lost and went into the wrong hallway, but as soon as that thought occurred to me, my dad showed up, coming in from the complete opposite direction. No way he had time to go all the way around there in a matter of seconds. You needed a key to get inside these hallways, so unless another tenant was posted in the adjacent hallway in complete darkness, I think I saw a ghost. Or a homeless person who snuck in there somehow. But I like to think it was a ghost.
