23 People Experienced Incredibly Creepy Coincidences

My mum once had a terrible dream that something awful had happened in the town we used to live in. We hadn’t lived there for 5+ years. Just out of curiousity she checked their local newspaper online and in the obituaries section she saw that my best friend from when I lived there had died of cancer a couple of days previous.

When I was 17 my grandpa had a stroke, and was slowly going downhill in the hospital. My grandma figured even if he ever got better, he wouldn’t be able to drive so she gave me his truck complete with camper shell and bed carpeting. He was in the hospital for several months. One day for no reason whatsoever I decided to sit in the back of the truck and just think a bit. I was back there for about 45 minutes daydreaming about nothing. When I came inside, my dad told me my grandpa had died 45 minutes ago.

My first long-term boyfriend and I shared quite a few coincidences, that we figured out over the four years of dating. Our father’s share the same first name, as well as our uncle’s on our father’s side; our middle siblings (both in families of three children) share the same birthday; we both lived in Germany, on the same army base, at the same time and never knew each other; and after moving around the country as children, we both ended up at the same high school.

My friend had told me that I would find out within 3 weeks that I was pregnant and it would be a boy. 3 weeks later, to the day, I found out I was pregnant. I didn’t find out that I was having a boy until 3 days before I had him. And my friend called me a month and a half before I had my son to tell me that I would have him on the 20th. Sure enough after 36 hours of labor I had my son on Nov. 20th. I always thought it was kinda creepy that she got it right.
