2022-08-03 Disturbing and Terrifying Dark Web Horror StoryI Ordered Contact Lenses From The Dark Web. It Was The Worst Decision I Ever MadeBy eekpeekhttps://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/ldkybv/i_ordered_contact_lenses_from_the_dark_web_it_was/BackgroundAbyssBy MyuuA few months ago, my best friend Jeremy called and asked if he could come over. He told me about this crazy new side of the internet that he had found. I had absolutely no idea what he was taking about. He was always up to something mischievous though. Even as an adult, he still had the enthusiasm of a child when he became excited. Because of that, it was always hard to tell him no. I could tell that this seemed important to him, so I told him to just come over and show me what the hell he was talking about.He came over to my house later that same day. He showed up with a flash drive. He was so excited, he didn’t even take off his shoes. He ran over to my already open laptop that was sitting on my living room table and immediately plugged the flash drive in. He had that obnoxious smile across his face. It was the same the smile he made when we were kids. The same taunting grin he made right before we were about to do something our parents would be furious about.“So much for saying hello! You really should knock first. What if I was naked?!” My voice was playful.“Shut up, and come sit down. Oh, and I’m sorry for just barging in like that.” He said just as playfully.“Whatever. You’re definitely not sorry. Im going to go make us some tea and I’ll be right out.” I smiled as I walked away.Around ten minutes later, I came back in with two mugs full of freshly brewed tea. I sat the tea down on the table in front of my couch and sat down next to Jeremy. I looked over at my laptop. My eyes immediately fixated on the screen. The flash drive contained a whole different operating system. I watched my laptop boot up and start running an operating system I had never even seen before. My eyes then shot their gaze at Jeremy.“What the hell is this? Is this going to mess up my computer? You know I can’t afford another one if this one breaks. Most importantly, I need it for school. All of my schoolwork is on there. You-“ My voice was sharp, but before I could finish talking he cut me off.“You worry too much. Just relax. I tested it out on my computer, and everything went fine. Just wait for it to boot up. Your computer will return to normal once I power it down and remove the flash drive.” His voice had a reassuring tone.“Yeah, whatever. Fine.” I said reluctantly.After about ten more minutes of us just sitting there watching this foreign operating system load, it finally finished. The Home Screen was a sold shade of blue, and there were only two icons. One was a web browser. The other one was some sort of VPN. In the corner was a search bar. I tried typing all kinds of words in it, but nothing came up.Eventually after I was done clicking around, Jeremy took over the controls. He opened up a web browser. It was a search engine I had never seen before. Actually, it was a search engine I had never even heard of. I watched him manically type in random numbers and letters into the search engine.Before I could even ask what he was doing, he hit enter and a Wikipedia page came up. Towards the middle of page was a list of links. They all had different names. “The Credit Card Company, Guns Are Great, and The One Stop Shop” were names of some of the links. Most links had extremely illegal titles and definitely lead to illegal activities. Some of them were just down right disgusting and disturbing. I’d rather not go into detail about those links.Jeremy quickly identified what he was looking for. It was a link called “The Gore Store”. He was always into that kind of stuff. I never understood why. Gore was just fascinating to him. I myself
