This is one of my absolute fav types of creepypasta, not for the mystery bit thing and ambiguousness of the situation, but having the "monster" in more of a protagonist role and doing something good.
You need to check out Dark Somnium. My absolute number one fave. He composes his own music, does his own audio effects, writes some of his own stories, and he has a fantastic team of narrators he works with to cover the other characters. He is seriously next level top quality.
Was Diane some version of the ferryman on the River Styx? Her last name being something close to Carter or Cooper makes me think it may have been Charon (the name of the ferryman) and the delivery guy just couldn’t remember it. Plus that line at the end when she says she might take the guy up on his offer to come see him one day (when he eventually becomes a cadaver himself) has me wondering…
@@jasonalbran376 I googled that and it came up stuff about mind matrix or something, although I think it was just showing an autocorrected search for "BCI Movie" which I think contains that sort of stuff. This is a very Good story in that it retains it's mysteriousness.
Honestly, it's super refreshing to have a story where the main character is an old timer. It's nice to see! Makes me think I'll still be just as curious for my own good in my olden years too.
BCI MKVI - Brain / Computer Interface - Mark 6 (6th Iteration) Most likely use: Demuliplexed closed loop muscular reanimation brain interfaces (used in paralysis cases but would likely work on fresh corpses)
I think the "one day..." they meet means when the main character becomes a cadaver himself... dun dun dun!! Lol, absolutely great narration and a very interesting story!!
No. I think that "one day" will be when she is... better. I think she was trying to "fix" something about herself. Hopefully she'll manage to do it... one day.
@@Snapper314 except the way she said "one day I may take you up" for a drunk sounds way too much like she's going to one day (when he is a cadaver) take him up (to where she is) to drink him
Same here. Female, work night shift and have since 1985. I have a few stories of my own, some I tell on my channel and some I save for the book I'm writing on my many midnight shift experiences. I'm also at work while listening to this...naw, I ain't skeered. If this kind of story scares us, we're in the wrong business.. Stay safe!
This was a terrific story, spooky, creepy and intriguing. A fantastic narration and great story telling. Who---or what-----was Diane? What was she doing with the cadavers? Why did she look so strange? And the smell of burning that accompanied her? Diane was no outright monster----the watchman was not immediately devoured or disappeared at his first investigation, even though he apparently had no one to miss him, if he did disappear. She responded well to his offer of company, even though she refused it. She definitely came to the defense of the watchmen. You have to wonder-----he gave her a little companionship, a little friendship, and she appreciated it. Her answer to his offer of a meeting is both promising and a bit creepy. She says, if he is willing, they might meet one day. That statement is interesting and just a bit menacing, yet it was without directly presenting a threat to him. After all, why go to the trouble of saving him, if she meant him ill? Does she mean that she will find him when he himself is a dead body, having died in the natural progression of time? But if that was the case, why would she ask him if his offer to meet remained open? After his death, why would she need his permission to find him? Is she suggesting that she might find him after she finishes whatever her "work" was? After she completes whatever it is she is doing? After it would be safe for her to meet him? We are left to wonder and speculate. Whatever supernatural creature Diane was, she did not strike me as a soulless monster. Even with her defense of the watchman----she killed the thug who hurt the watchman and directly threatened her, but let the others run away unharmed, even though the suggestion is that she could have killed them all. This felt less like a horror story, and more like a story of two lonely souls, connecting by chance over an offer of friendship freely given. And while it is a very satisfying conclusion, it leaves the listener wondering if we should hope for that eventual future meeting or not. The story was very well written, very engagingly told. It gives you enough details to let you care about the protagonist, but does not waste a lot of time. Far too many of these stories end in gore and blood, the protagonist killed, or dammed or whatever. I prefer this ending. He walks away with an interesting memory. It is very much like how something like this might actually happen in real life. After all, what would you do if this happened to you? Nothing really. You would go on with your life, but you would remember and wonder. The entire story is satisfying but intriguing and thought provoking. A very different twist on the idea of "haunted" abandoned places. The narration is wonderful, and very well done, easy to listen to. Highly recommended!
This is such a beautiful analysis - it really adds something to the story, beyond just revealing the literal events that have to be distilled. It does strike me as a more surreal story rather than a horror story, especially being there was only danger for those who hurt other people - it’s a ghostly and kind of comforting tale.
you describe the appeal of this story perfectly - theres a lot of mystery and intrigue to it. author doesn't explain everything - which deepens the supernatural feel and makes it so much more enjoyable.
I like the little 4th wall nod about "no set of weird rules" that we come to expect out of most of the guard job stories. BCI MK VI eh? Feels like to me it was an AI of sorts he was talking to and Diane's body was the one the company had been using during the previously mentioned incident researching whatever they were. And it was getting the deliveries, looking for a fresh one it could successfully take over to leave.
It's nice someone or something looking after you while working alone but usually never happen , great story this one turn out different at the end and it's entertaining , thank you ...
@@LighthouseHorror to be truth i like almost all your stories , some make me sad but still enjoying listening , keep up the thrilling Lighthouse Horror i love you and keep waiting for the new story .... : ) ....
It’s so refreshing to hear a story where the typical monster antagonist isn’t antagonistic. This one had me hooked through the end, and I’m left with a lot of unanswered questions, but I think that’s for the best. Very hooking narration and fantastic tale by Head of Spectre.
This is one of my favorite channels to listen to while doing housework and recovering from life as I get closer to a surgery and a week or so in the hospital, I’m making sure that I have all of my things to keep my stories going. The suspense, thrills, and just plain humorous are so well executed with the stories told. Yet another awesome one!
Thanks! We’re mostly just recovering daily from the usual chronic things at home but surgery is the end of next week and it’s out of town so the household will be split up for that week out of necessity. But I even go into older stories while I doze off as the pain meds kick in so I can function for a bit longer. I’m fairly sure that my husband gets a kick out of the random lines I tell him that just crack me up, too. So essentially, 3 adults get amused by this channel in this house.
I love me some lighthouse horror stories! Alot of the content creators I follow I had to warm up to them, not lighthouse horror. The first video I listened to I was hooked. I immediately listened to all of his content in two days.

Alright! Security guard/night watchman story! These are awesome 👌 I just love these stories man, they're always sooo creepy! I'm sure it has it's low parts but watching horror movies in abandoned buildings while patrolling every now and then sounds like a pretty good job if you ask me!
I've done it. It's creepy AF. It gets in your head. There was one building in particular that I would've bet my life was haunted while working there. Now I realize I was probably just spooking myself... but still wouldn't want to do another shift there. It was a huge old brick building in central PA that used to be a school and got turned into a government building of some sort. The first few weeks working I turned on the gym lights and played basketball. The bounce of the ball echoed through the empty building like gun shots. I swear I started hearing laughter between bounces. I'd stop and listen and the laughter would fade as the sound reverberation of the ball stopped. Then the lights started turning off on me randomly leaving me blind in a pitch black gymnasium with laughing sounds and a bouncing ball I couldn't find. My adrenaline spikes a little just remembering feeling my way to the wall in the pitch black and shuffle walking to find the door. Second time the lights went out on me I gave up on the gymnasium. Had other things happen too, I'd find random open doors into rooms that didn't even have working lights, creaks and bangs all night every night. One night I was hanging out in the theater reading and decided to take a peek backstage. I almost punched a mannequin that popped up in my flashlight beam. I was a nervous wreck by the time I quit that job, lol. Like I said, I'm sure I was just spooking myself, but you couldn't get me back in that place at night for a thousand bucks. I sound like a wimp when I reread this. I'm not normally even that kind of guy. I do a lot of solo backpacking where you get that buzz of adrenaline being miles from any other humans in the middle of the night... and it's creepy... but it doesn't even compare to that dang old school building, lol
@@mattymediocrity8255 I don't think you sound like a wimp at all. I completely understand, it sounds like an absolutely terrifying place! There's something about being alone that changes places.... I wonder sometimes if it's because we spook ourselves out? Or if we're just more open to really listening when we're alone. I'm not saying for sure it was paranormal, like you said maybe you were just freaking yourself out.... but if the place really felt that off... then that might be your instincts kicking in and trying to get you the hell out of there for a good reason.... Anyways I really loved reading this comment, very interesting! Have you ever considered trying to write it out in a long story form? Im not much of a writer myself... but your story would be sooooo interesting. Anyways, Thanks 👍👏
@@Nyctonaut Ha... haven't considered it. I've written a couple creepy pastas that have gotten read, but never really considered this because nothing really crazy ever happened. I guess I could use it as a base and embellish it.
@@mattymediocrity8255 Well if you do, lemme know! I have a channel that does urban legends, I just started 3 months ago but I've considered trying a few narrations for the weeks in between episodes to give myself more uploads. Do you post on Reddit, or? Idk there was something about this comment that made me really want to hear a full version! (Even if some of it is fiction to make it more interesting or whatever, its still a REALLY fun start to a story.)...(lol oh not to make light of a terrifying experience but from the outside looking in I can't help it!)
@@Nyctonaut I'll let you know if I do, but it wouldn't be anytime soon. Over the past few years I've written a 1200 page fantasy epic... and I'm absolutely in love with the world I created. But I'm not a professional writer, and every time I reread it, I find dozens and dozens of mistakes... it also jumps between first and third person which I guess is a no-no that only an amateur would do, lol.... I love this thing so much and I'm so proud of it, but I don't really know where to take it from here. I'm kind of stumped. I know I'll never write anything this good again so I want it to be perfect. Anyways, I look forward to checking out your channel!
Awesome story Stephen, the open ending ,with so much left only partially answered was very well done. Just the right balance of creepy as all hell and intriguing mystery. Great narration as always and the extra work for the longer story was greatly appreciated too. Cheers Srephen, Lee.
I thought so too. Often these types of stories have unfriendly characters who are somewhat an enigma, but it's nice to hear a genuinely polite conversation
37:43 Y'know that scene in superhero movies where the hero has this "old friend" that they knew and meet to have a drink with while hiding their friends to recover from the villain's wrath before the climax? I got a feeling that's gonna happen here.
PLEASE LIGHTHOUSE HORROR MAKE PART A PART FOR THIS. PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE IM BEGGING YOU I NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT. I love your work btw. Your the best!!!!!!!!!
Stephen, I love the stories you narrate for us! Wow 🤩 I’m always so impressed with the whole immersive experience here at the lighthouse horror, just like your channel name drawing us in! The title & thumbnail shows that this will be BRILLIANT HORROR! Thank you my friend! 🔥👊😄
im gonna cry dianne is so sweet i hope that in the universe of this story that they can run into eachother again sometime and get their promised drinks together 🥲
A very interesting and mysterious story by Head of Spectre! The narration and especially the Voice work were superb!! Very enjoyable. Thank you and the author very much!!
For real..i have been listening to all the creepypasta narrators since day one..you by far have one of the best voices for the job..im always so excited when I see a new video from you..keep it up..thank you for everything👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I am just astonished at how many subscriber's you have! I have been here since the 40K range. I tell everyone about your channel and I wish you were on the Chilling app, then I could fall asleep to your stories without commercials! Lol Very happy for your success! You should feel proud ☺
I dunno. I kind of got the feeling that Diane was a doctor who had experimented on herself and gained some strange monsterlike condition, which is why she was unable to socialize and be with the watchman. I did not take the comment that maybe she would take him up on the drink to be anything sinister. I got the feeling that she meant were she able to rid herself of her condition, she would love to genuinely meet with him in person. As far as everything else, with the cadavers, to the burning smell, to whatever experimentation the building was used for, I have no clue and that's the mysterious aspect of the story. I really enjoyed this story. I would like more explanation, which is the case for most creepypastas.
Just finished the story! I love stories with nuanced monster characters who aren't inherently malevolent. Diane comes off as a lonely figure, it was nice of the protagonist to keep her company so to speak.
very interesting story. it keeps you on edge and stuck in your seat wanting to know what comes next - you don’t want to miss a word. I had a great time listening to you narrate the story, your soft voice makes the story even more intriguing. thanks for sharing. i just happened to be searching around and found your channel. I am now a new subscriber!!
I think what happened was the building caught fire at some point and that was the accident the delivery man was referring to, Diane who was indeed an accountant working in this building was caught up in this accident on the 5th floor! Since it was the top floor she was unable to get down in time before the flames nearly burnt the building to the ground and instead of dying she became some sort of thing. Not a malevolent thing but some sort of ghost or entity with supernatural powers. Her work was using the cadavers to try and bring her dead coworkers or friends back to life. When the punk was trying to kill the security guard she made him burst into flames, it ate him up until he was nothing but that ozone burning smell. That promise that she made to him was to not only meet back up with him later on in life but to bring him back from the dead as a part of her work to live with her. But then that’s all just speculation so, regardless a brilliant story.
Wow....I saw the video title and had to click on it. I am also a Security Guard, work nights and just turned 60. This guy's words describing his view on his work sounds like it came out of my own mouth. It's already spooky with all of that...and the story hasn't even really started yet. LOL
WOAH WAIT! A story CLOSE TO WINNIPEG!? 😂 idk i thought we’d only ever be mentioned in The Office. I’m guessing Gimli because he said “a ways north” maybe Riverton. Still that’s awesome 👌
I don't know why, but it feels like it's been a while. Time is a strange thing. Hope you're doing well, and let's not take so long to cross paths next time.

I wonder sometimes if it's because we spook ourselves out? Or if we're just more open to really listening when we're alone. I'm not saying for sure it was paranormal, like you said maybe you were just freaking yourself out.... but if the place really felt that off... then that might be your instincts kicking in and trying to get you the hell out of there for a good reason....
Anyways I really loved reading this comment, very interesting! Have you ever considered trying to write it out in a long story form? Im not much of a writer myself... but your story would be sooooo interesting. Anyways, Thanks 👍👏
@@Nyctonaut Ha... haven't considered it. I've written a couple creepy pastas that have gotten read, but never really considered this because nothing really crazy ever happened. I guess I could use it as a base and embellish it.
@@mattymediocrity8255 Well if you do, lemme know! I have a channel that does urban legends, I just started 3 months ago but I've considered trying a few narrations for the weeks in between episodes to give myself more uploads. Do you post on Reddit, or? Idk there was something about this comment that made me really want to hear a full version! (Even if some of it is fiction to make it more interesting or whatever, its still a REALLY fun start to a story.)...(lol oh not to make light of a terrifying experience but from the outside looking in I can't help it!)
@@Nyctonaut I'll let you know if I do, but it wouldn't be anytime soon. Over the past few years I've written a 1200 page fantasy epic... and I'm absolutely in love with the world I created. But I'm not a professional writer, and every time I reread it, I find dozens and dozens of mistakes... it also jumps between first and third person which I guess is a no-no that only an amateur would do, lol.... I love this thing so much and I'm so proud of it, but I don't really know where to take it from here. I'm kind of stumped. I know I'll never write anything this good again so I want it to be perfect.
Anyways, I look forward to checking out your channel!
Since I caught up on all of your videos, now I have to wait for the new ones. But…it’s always worth the wait! Thanks LH!!😊
🙂👊
Makes the night when Steven comes thru! Thanks my brother!
🙂👊
eyyyyy, good one
I'm only too glad to see a protag recognize a potential monster who isn't actually doing something wrong
Glad that he came back to thank her. Always annoys me when they don't.
Awesome story Stephen, the open ending ,with so much left only partially answered was very well done. Just the right balance of creepy as all hell and intriguing mystery. Great narration as always and the extra work for the longer story was greatly appreciated too. Cheers Srephen, Lee.
Cheers Lee! I know what you mean. I like not everything being answered too. Thanks for all the support!
It makes my night when i see uve uploaded a story 💕
🙂
I like falling asleep to these stories. Quite often my mind incorporates parts of the story into my dreams.
I had a feeling we would be getting a post from LH. Score!
Even though it's a horror story, but the friendliness between the guard and Diane just feels so wholesome
I thought so too. Often these types of stories have unfriendly characters who are somewhat an enigma, but it's nice to hear a genuinely polite conversation
I don't know why, but these stories make me fall asleep peacefully , they are always so good 😌👌🏻
This is gonna be good! Can't wait to listen to this on my lunch break 👀
What makes a good day for me, seeing Lighthouse has put out a new story!!!!! Thanks for all you do!!!!!!
thanks Chris!
Thank you! It's one thing my wife and I look forward to every day that you do
friendly witch, i hope for a sequel this story has great potebtial for more episodes.
I tought she was a vampire/ghoul.
Man I love listening to your stories late at night. Thank you for another fantastic narration, my friend. Best narrator on RUclips.
thanks Jesse!
Hey Steven
It's been a while since I've checked in.
Always my fave C.P narrator hands down
Hope your well
Don’t call it CP tho yeah?
thanks Mr. Hope you're well too
@@SwagnusCarlton Haha I know there's more too it,..
Was just a quick comment the abbreviation is probably outdated like me lol
@@LighthouseHorror Cheers mate
@@mrg6185 'CP' as an abbreviation has some... erm. other connotations. The kind people go to prison for.

Y'know that scene in superhero movies where the hero has this "old friend" that they knew and meet to have a drink with while hiding their friends to recover from the villain's wrath before the climax?
I got a feeling that's gonna happen here.
Very creepy! But the way you read made it almost relaxing 😌. Thank you for sharing.
Winnipeg is near me, crazy to hear familiar town names in a story
I love how the kid was about to fight that monster. It's kinda refreshing
Wake up me another light house video has been posted
PLEASE LIGHTHOUSE HORROR MAKE PART A PART FOR THIS. PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE IM BEGGING YOU I NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT. I love your work btw. Your the best!!!!!!!!!
Would love to hear more episodes of this. Awesome story and delivery 💜🐾🐾💜
Stephen, I love the stories you narrate for us! Wow 🤩 I’m always so impressed with the whole immersive experience here at the lighthouse horror, just like your channel name drawing us in! The title & thumbnail shows that this will be BRILLIANT HORROR!
Thank you my friend! 🔥👊😄
im gonna cry dianne is so sweet i hope that in the universe of this story that they can run into eachother again sometime and get their promised drinks together 🥲
Hope to hear more from this story, kinda leaves you hanging, very intriguing though like a fish on a hook waiting to be reeled in!!☠️💀☠️💀
Great stuff
Woohoo thanks!
This one was surprisingly wholesome. I liked it.
Loved it dude, that guard had some big ones to keep going back there every night like that no matter what was going on!
Right!!
Amazing story and amazing narrator!
You're one of the best!
I love these kind of stories
The fifth floor 👀👀 sounding spooooky
I saw you had a new video. Bro your voice is everything. Keep up the good quality work 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️❤️❤️❤️bravo
thanks Queen Sheebah!
@@LighthouseHorror anytime bro., Thank you for pumping this quality content. Keep up the good work 💜💜❤️❤️
Good one. It left the listener very curious but ... comfortable.
Im a night security dog handler… I love these stories but some times can’t listen to them to much on shift lol 😂
Hey have a good night ma man
A very interesting and mysterious story by Head of Spectre! The narration and especially the Voice work were superb!! Very enjoyable. Thank you and the author very much!!
For real..i have been listening to all the creepypasta narrators since day one..you by far have one of the best voices for the job..im always so excited when I see a new video from you..keep it up..thank you for everything👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I would love to hear a part two of Diane and the watchman
I love this story... the mysterious vibes and thrill... simple but very good...
I am just astonished at how many subscriber's you have! I have been here since the 40K range. I tell everyone about your channel and I wish you were on the Chilling app, then I could fall asleep to your stories without commercials! Lol
Very happy for your success! You should feel proud ☺
Part 353 of thanking the lighthouse horror for their constant uploads
I hope we hear more from her. Great story. Great narration as always. Thankyou Lighthouse.
Always fascinating when an author has a sort of extended universe. This one is intriguing!
Thank you!
Lovin these longer uploads
As an ex security guard , I wish I would have this back in the 90's. To keep me going on those 12 hrs shifts.
He'll yeah new LH video.
I dunno. I kind of got the feeling that Diane was a doctor who had experimented on herself and gained some strange monsterlike condition, which is why she was unable to socialize and be with the watchman.
I did not take the comment that maybe she would take him up on the drink to be anything sinister. I got the feeling that she meant were she able to rid herself of her condition, she would love to genuinely meet with him in person.
As far as everything else, with the cadavers, to the burning smell, to whatever experimentation the building was used for, I have no clue and that's the mysterious aspect of the story.
I really enjoyed this story. I would like more explanation, which is the case for most creepypastas.
Ouuu just what I needed!!
Really enjoyed that ending
Just finished the story! I love stories with nuanced monster characters who aren't inherently malevolent. Diane comes off as a lonely figure, it was nice of the protagonist to keep her company so to speak.
This was pretty wholesome for a creepypasta, I absolutely loved it! It's a nice change of pace
Splendid 👍👍
Yo Light! Perfect narration as always and a great story.
thanks George! Hope you're doing well
I really want a continuation of this one!
very interesting story. it keeps you on edge and stuck in your seat wanting to know what comes next - you don’t want to miss a word. I had a great time listening to you narrate the story, your soft voice makes the story even more intriguing. thanks for sharing. i just happened to be searching around and found your channel. I am now a new subscriber!!
I think what happened was the building caught fire at some point and that was the accident the delivery man was referring to, Diane who was indeed an accountant working in this building was caught up in this accident on the 5th floor! Since it was the top floor she was unable to get down in time before the flames nearly burnt the building to the ground and instead of dying she became some sort of thing. Not a malevolent thing but some sort of ghost or entity with supernatural powers. Her work was using the cadavers to try and bring her dead coworkers or friends back to life. When the punk was trying to kill the security guard she made him burst into flames, it ate him up until he was nothing but that ozone burning smell. That promise that she made to him was to not only meet back up with him later on in life but to bring him back from the dead as a part of her work to live with her. But then that’s all just speculation so, regardless a brilliant story.
You're a really good storyteller. Wish we had you back in 2nd grade at storytime. Lol
I'd say your voice work is unappreciated talent, but I know we all appreciate it greatly.
And this is one of my favorites I've ever heard on any channel. Something about it is so..
Sweet.
Diane and Peter, what a great love story.
Outstanding L. I always manage to get a laugh from your stories (the character voices especially 😂👍).
Same
Wow....I saw the video title and had to click on it. I am also a Security Guard, work nights and just turned 60. This guy's words describing his view on his work sounds like it came out of my own mouth. It's already spooky with all of that...and the story hasn't even really started yet. LOL
Hey hey
Its sooo nice to lay your phone on your chest and listen to the story with your eyes closed
Love these kind of stories where the protagonist and "monster" become friends.
WOAH WAIT! A story CLOSE TO WINNIPEG!? 😂 idk i thought we’d only ever be mentioned in The Office. I’m guessing Gimli because he said “a ways north” maybe Riverton. Still that’s awesome 👌
I loved it, awesome story and of course. the best narrator ever ... JMO!
🙂👊
Not opinion fact he is literally the best
I don't know why, but it feels like it's been a while. Time is a strange thing. Hope you're doing well, and let's not take so long to cross paths next time.
hope you're doing well too 🙂👊
First! Also, man I love seeing new posts from LH
Well anything past the 3rd floor is questionable anyhow
Love it
