10 Surprising Answers to the Weirdest Questions Ever Asked on Reddit (5 of 6)

8. A Self-Proclaimed Vampire

“What’s the most bizarre thing someone has ever told you about themselves?”

Answer: Another Redditor told a tale about his co-worker, who claimed she was an actual vampire. The alleged vampire insisted that she had been alive for hundreds of years and that subsisting on a diet of human blood is what kept her looking so young and healthy. In spite of all of these crazy things, she remained gainfully employed and, according to her colleagues, seemed relatively normal so long as you were willing to look past this whole “I’m a creature of the night” spiel. Thus, the user was left wondering if his coworker really was what she professed to be or if she was, in reality, nothing more than an eccentric woman with an overactive imagination.

9. The Real-Life Mermaid

“What is the most unbelievable thing you’ve ever seen?”

Their meeting was short yet hypnotic, leaving the user questioning whether they had ventured into a boundary where myth meets reality.
