Hello, author here! Thank you so much for the narration Stephen; you have no idea how excited seeing this in my feed made me. I've been an aspiring writer for quite some time and this was the first short story I ever submitted. It was rejected by about 12 publications before I kind of abandoned it in my files for three years. As I'm trying to be published again, I wanted to see what people would think of my earliest attempt - readers not editors. I never expected this when I submitted this to nosleep, but this is a dream come true. You did so good and I feel honored. Thank you Stephen, and to everyone else: enjoy and I hope to be telling you more stories soon. Dawson Balencia~

The ones about the ocean or the abyss are my favorite. I also like Eldritch Horror styled stories. Both are fascinating because instead of shock factor they tackle the unknown. It's like answering a question people have asked with a terror or pondered concept. We need more Bermuda Triangle stories for sure.

I love how this teacher orders everyone to show him their teeth. Asks the protagonist What happened to the girl. But literally has no interest in actually asking the girl herself what happened. Then immediately lets the kids go back into the water. Lol! Teacher of the year ladies and gentlemen. 😅

That's such a lovely yet foreboding story. The protagonist is an extremely likeable and believable character, which is what makes the story just that bit more realistic. Thank you.

I have never looked at the ocean and thought "hm that looks like a gentle hug". Probably too many memories of tumbling end over end in the surf and getting sand burns lol

"I think there is something in the water" I mean, yeah. There's fish.

I was JUST sayin' how weird ocean life is, including Promachoteuthis sulcus (a squid with human-like teeth, wtf even is that) and Sheepshead fish. A fish with multiple rows of human teeth. They're just unsettling. Don't think either of them scream or babble like humans though. I'm not a marine biologist though, so don't quote me on that.

The funny thing is, the Pacu fish actually *does* have teeth that are nearly identical to a human's. Super painful bite because the teeth are blunt and thick, instead of needle-like or thin and serrated that's common with other types of fish.

The baby turtle at 0:30 is soooooooo cute

It's funny, I just read an article about some people finding a fish with teeth that looked human. There was a picture of it and it did look strange. I don't know how it could have been hoaxed but there's always that possibility I suppose. Great story and narration as usual. Thank you!

sometimes it feels like the ocean really doesn't want us in it...

The black liquid is venom.

"Near a Kelp Forest at night." This guy's asking to be bite by normal creatures, even if there weren't any cryptids after his precious bodily fluids.

Nice! I love ocean horror, but I'm sick of it always ending up being a tentacle creature. Something like this is a breath of fresh water!

Don't you just love how humans try to make up unlogical conclusions instead of face up to things outside their train of belief

Ol' Lighthouse, putting clips of a cute little baby sea turtle... then yanks the rug with a creepy story about one of humankind's oldest nemeses, the Ocean... Oh, wait. That being said, best narrator on KZfaq, Ocean or no.

Part 183 of thanking the lighthouse horror for their constant uploads

I like the images that played during the story.

This is actually very well written. I love how the "monster/unidentified fish" mirrors the quote from the beginning. In a way, it makes the circle complete, wondering what came first, the quote or the fish. Great narration kept me on the edge of my seat.

Dude I am loving this and POV feels like a Jr Detective Protagonist from Encyclopedia Brown or Nancy Drew I love it

Should have kept that evidence, and shown it to the right people. Smh.

It's sweet how he put the fish back usually when people see something different they equate it to evil and think it needs to be destroyed good on him for letting it live

Well that was weird. Fish with human teeth, a bit scarry. I'm glad the girl didn't die. It's the boy's secret what he found. As long as people don't disappear or die, then it's a pretty good story!

Like ice cube said. "Today was a good day" & i add because if Stephens consistent up Loads! Thanks friend!

Now repeat after me You don't recognize the bodies in the water You don't recognize the bodies in the water You don't recognize the bodies in the water

That teacher is gonna lose his job. What a horrible chaperone.

"To be caught by our mothers embrace." With my luck I'll just wind up being caught by a fisherman's net.

@ Lighthouse horror there is a species of fish called sheepshead fish that have human-like teeth. They were found in Carolina not sure if it was North or South Carolina. Father's love and blessings to you. Thank you for sharing these stories with us.

You have a way of making a 'horror' story relaxing at the same time.

Deep ocean horror is one of my top favorite types of stories. Right up there with forest horror 😬

Funny short story that goes along, i lived in Honolulu when i was 13/14. In the Summer, we would get on my parents smallish sail boat. We would sail for about an entire day until we lost sight of all land for a day. We'd drop anchor and "camp" in the middle of the ocean. It's a surreal experience to say the least. The water is the exact same color blue as the sky. So you look down and you can't tell how fast down you can see but you know it's extremely fast down. Point of the story is when you inevitably jump in, your mind can't fully process what happens next. On a clear skyless day with no motion in the water, you float and when you look into the distance, you can't really tell if you're in the ocean you're floating in the sky. The only thing that levels you out or enables you to keep your sanity is the water making you wet. Even than, at least it did for me every time we went out for the week, you have a period of time where your mind can't differentiate between the 2. The first few times i freaked out and see many a person do the same. The only group of people i saw it have no effect on was a group of NAVY SEALS. My mom and step dad were lifer navy people so they had Navy men and women of all sorts. I even saw 1 navy man get partially bothered. He didn't freak as i did but you could see the unease cross his face is only for a few moments. This story just reminded me of those trips

Steven, your work ethic is off the charts man! You earned that 100k KZfaq plaque! Ty for the vid...again

There's always something horrifying in the water. If it's not the Deep Ones or the Lusca or Jormungandr or Our Lord and Destroyer Cthulhu, it's sharks or jellyfish or polar bears.

Fabbo!! I just love the longer vids from you!! The visuals are so beautiful also. You’re raising the bar so much every day Stèphen ♥️♥️♥️

I swear ocean based creepypastas are going to end up giving me thalassophobia

Bruh unless this is like from decades and decades ago or maybe a college trip they would no way in hell just let one student sleep on the beach, you would get sued to hell and back.

I’m going to the beach in a few weeks, this is gonna be a great story to listen to! (Hopefully I won’t get scared of the ocean.)

Good story. It wasn’t too outlandish thus making it believable. Like the character in the story, I love the ocean. The beauty, the power and mystery, the smell, the animal life. All of it. I moved to Florida 10 years ago and live just a few miles from the ocean. I have a saltwater canal in my back yard.

The worst part is that fish with human teeth are in fact a real thing😆

I always enjoy water pastas because the Ocean is scary enough to me as is!

Awesome a longer one! I know it will be awesome thank you

That was amazing ^_^

Lighthouse you’re amazing always putting at least one story a day out this was a good one I love the water and have had my own experiences thanks great narration

Love ocean stories this one and the last one about cave there great please upload more about them idk what it is about listening about scary stories or monsters from ocean think its the fact we know so little it could possibly be true you just never know

Somehow it doesn’t surprise me that there’s freaky stuff in the ocean depths.

I forced myself to let three stories upload so I could have my meditation for sleep

Loving it bro! Fantastic as always ^_^

Great story well read thank you. And it’s true that some fish do have human like teeth (pacu). Makes for a more interesting story when a bit of truth is mixed in with fiction.

Well you cant have a good tale of horror being told unless it's being told by lighthouse horror!😈🤘

Great job light and story writers!

I really look forward to your uploads. Thanks. 💕

Sweet thanks lighthouse

Good story! Why is the student sleeping outside?

Thank you for the extra long story LH, I always appreciate the extra work. Cool story , quite intriguing, one of those ones that I suspect will stay with me for some time. Change, contrary to popular belief is not always for the best.

some writters just make amazing stories lighthouse horror makes it even better with hes great narrating i cant complain, this was a good story

And this friends is why being a chaperone on a school trip is the only thing worse than being in the classroom.

I love this reading channel.

On time story time hell yeah

OOh a long Lighthouse narration! Perfection!

Definitely some mystery unknown to us all is brewing within the ocean depths.. after all the modern technology it still remains largely unexplored.. but there are fishes that have been discovered to have human teeth.. not sure if they make those sounds tho.. Love the story and enjoyed listening to the reading as well..

Kudos to the author of this story! It was very well written and had an unexpected twist that I really did enjoy. LH, you, as always, are excellent as a story teller.

Cool story. We really should try to learn more about our oceans.

Ooooo a long one thanks 😊

Super enjoyed this story! 💜

Some people believe that we were once fish instead of monkeys. Or we were fish first then monkeys. Idk. But if this story was ever true then it might be proof to that theory. Haha, but I don't believe in that theory.. though I might if we found a human fish. Lmfao

There's a lot of terrifying things in that water.

Another outstanding story 👏 🦉

There is a fish that resembles the creature in this story exactly. All of us that fish along the gulf coast know it’s a Sheephead. It’s teeth, straight on look exactly like human teeth, as if the fish is wearing dentures. It feeds on crustaceans and needs short flat teeth to crush their shells. Look. It up they are very odd looking.

I rather like this one. It attributes to the ocean both the serenity and mystique that I think it deserves, and the ending was at once both enigmatic and heartwarming.

"There's something in the ocean" Yeah, it's called fish and stuff.

I love me some lighthouse horror

Dang. I was just at the beach a few days ago. It was too cold to be in the water but I’d have gone in if it had been warm. After hearing this exceptionally well-told story, I might never go into the ocean again…

You're another great reader like Steve, thank you.

okay so a disturbing fish fact: There are indeed fish that have teeth that're uncannily similar to human teeth. Triggerfish use said teeth to crush coral, and then there is the pacu, a mostly herbivorous cousin to the more infamous pirhanna, in their native Amazon habitat they're peaceful chunguses. But in New Guinea, where they are invasive, the pacu has eaten so much vegetation that it ran outa food and decided to use its human like teeth to dine on everything else: baby crocs, baby ducks, some poor man's crotch. Firgured I'd drop these facts after hearing about the first attack in the story, in order to unease anyone who had doubts of how this could happen in the ocean, which it can.

People do say we started as fish so made he found what we once was

I enjoyed this story a lot. We don't know everything about our waters as only 10% has been investigated. I have to admit I thought the girl had been bitten by a mer person, hence human teeth. But no one truly knows the waters true depths and what lies beneath. Brilliant narration as always.

I failed the lake checkout for a divers license. It was the black depth of water beneath me. I get claustrophobic above ground. Go figure. Could not breathe.

So, sheep's head...a black and white fish that has teeth that are human like.

As a coastie, this was a fun story. I'm not too fond of swimming in the ocean but I love rivers and lakes. Every body of water has it's dangers...it may not be a weird species of fish but the unknown is the true monster. Educate yourself as much as possible. Also, don't turn your back on logs (even if water isn't near) and don't go near cool/pretty/mysterious rocky areas.

Hey light Ive been listening to many of your stories Kept me from going bonkers lol Ty. I really like the stories from 2 years ago Take care n stay safe Its coming back Love from Virginia

I've always been afraid 😨 of the water since my older sister threw me off the dock at the Tulalip Bay when I was about 7 years old and said sink or swim, I was terrified but without realizing it I started the doggy paddle

Wait that’s really weird actually, the myth book said we originated in the ocean. But uh…. All life on this planet evolved out of the ocean. That’s a really strange coincidence.

The aurhor does a good job of making it feel like the young man belongs with the sea. I can easily picture someone that grew up near, or on the coast.

It was Mr. Limpett.

:D possessed parrotfish?!

The funny thing about the bite on the girl is that it _can_ be attributed to a fish. A species of fish exists that has creepily similar teeth to a human mouth.

4th!!😁😁…..Yaaaay!..hey LH 🤗

Isn't there an actual type of fish with human teeth tho... Creepy bastards they got like two layers of em

Really enjoyable story well written - really liked how it slowly unfolded itself and the mystery. Great narration as always.

We realy need to apreciate video footage itself, espacialy in the end!

So this resorts shoreline is infested with people fish? That can excrete black venomous bile that is like basically an immediate death?

Thank you for your stories. You have a very calming voice. Please keep it up. ❗💜🖤💜

I'm not one who like the ocean I almost drowned when I was 11. I fell asleep on a raft n floated to far. The swim back got me so tired I almost just gave up to obviously die.. I had no more strength to get back to shore and so much water in my mouth It was overwhelming I kept choking on water. I got a sudden rush of something and I made my way to the ropes that were dividing the side of beach and I pulled myself back to shore my mom didn't believe me till she saw a boat pull up my float and bring it back to us. It was a bad day. I couldn't wait to go home n forget about the whole thing. I much rather swim in a pool now...

The fish with human like teeth really exist and the way it looks no wonder author made a creepy pasta about it

AMAZING

I kept imagining those weird fish with the human like teeth.

It’s not an infection! That’s poison! That damn creature poisonous

Enjoyed this one

Not fun fact: there are actual fish with "human" teeth. You'll have to look it up yourself though I can't remember species names and don't want to Google it ever.

Aww he didn't even take pictures of the fish
