One day at a shopping mall in the afternoon, a woman was coming out of the mall from a shopping spree. She was in a happy mood. She had gotten to her car and loaded her stuff that she had bought into her trunk. When she was done loading, she shut the door of her trunk and she saw an old lady standing by the passenger side of her car.
The old woman said “Would you be a darling and give me a lift home? I don’t have a car and I was walking all day.” The woman said “I’d be happy to.” So she unlocked the door for the old woman.
As she started to make her way around the car to the driver’s side, she started to feel uncomfortable. So when she got in the car, she looked in her purse and said “Darn, I can’t find my credit card. I’m going inside to see if anybody found it.” The old woman said “I’ll wait for you here.”
The woman left to go look for help. Then she found a security guard and told him the situation. They went back to the woman’s car and the passenger door was wide open. On the seat of the car was a shopping bag that the old woman had been carrying. Inside of the bag was the old woman’s dress and a gray haired wig, along with a huge butcher’s knife, a video camera, and a roll of duct tape.

You are all idiots!!!!! It’s not a legend it could actually happen and at least you got something instead of nothing!!!!!
Dodged a bullet on that one.
First heard this one on YouTube. I think I’m the only one who thinks the “old lady” was actually a man between the age of 21 or 40 who was a wanted serial killer in disguise and ended up losing his disguise and equipment in a panic, trying to get rid of evidence, when he thought his next victim was taking too long to get back to the car. He must’ve figured out the woman was getting someone out to her car and thought she was calling the police.
you didnt give enough reason as to why the woman would feel so uncomfortable that she would just go and get a security gaurd. Also i feel like i’ve read this before… either that or its just way too predictable.
I feel like I have read this story somewhere else before that or I am retarded or something.
What? Was that suppose to be scary..? I am confused.
This story is just a bit too generic for my tast really
This story was in one of the Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark books.
Yeah urban legend blah blah blah, but ain’t nobody got time to leave every piece of evidence behind. Al dente pasta at best.
ok really…
I WAS THE OLD LADY!!!!!!!!! jk this story creeped me out though….. AWAY TO SQUIDWARDS SUICIDE!!!!!!
This felt so real, like it could be on the news… Nice one.
Oh. Okay. I’m confused, can someone please explain?
Why would he leave the bag with all the evidence if he was going to take the time to get changed? Sorry, I mean WHY would… oh Jesus this is stupid.
Meh. Not the best pasta. I have to agree that it is too overused and to predictable. So overall, 3/10
No hate please, someone just explain to me what the story is referring to or whatever you guys are referring to in connection to the story. Thanks
I must say I am confused to why the person did not take the things with them but all in all, the creepy factor is from the fact that people do this in real life.
I’m not liking this site so far…the stories aren’t so scary.
I read this story 10 years ago, when there was only windows ’98 and a lot of bored mailers spamming yahoo-mail.
baka id say sry i need to head straight home not sure
i dont get it…
Who’s the old lady
Wow,I wondered where the killer got the wig and dress to fit him
This is a pretty old urban legend, I’ve read it multiple times, each with a slightly changed perception. However, I do not know if this is the original, so I will not hate on it. :)
Wow
SHITTY PASTA IS SHITTY BUT TASTY…OH GOD
Crap, an anti-climatic pasta.
“Would you be a darling and give me a lift home? I don’t have a car and I was walking all day.”
“I’d be gl-”
(she saw the stuff in her shopping bag)
“You know what, b####, go f### yourself.”
it was ok i think 9/10
Wtf why is this creepypasta not even scary lol
