The account

A guy rented a room on the second floor of a wooden house. And the landlord tells him, like, there's a nail sticking out of the floor, but don't you pull it out, or it'll be worse. And this guy lived there many days, kept tripping over the nail. One night he had to get up, he got up and in the dark he impaled himself on the nail. It pissed him off, and he yanked the nail out of the floor.

A few minutes later there's a knock at the door. The guy opened the door. And on the threshold stands someone in a white shroud with a candle, and in a sepulchral voice said: "Why the fuck did you pull out the nail? My chandelier fell from the ceiling."

That's the kind of creepypasta this is.

Read the original (Russian)

Один мужик снял комнату на втором этаже деревянного дома. А хозяин ему говорит, мол в полу торчит гвоздь, но ты его не выдёргивай, а то хуже будет. И этот мужик много суток жил, об гвоздь запинался. Однажды ночью ему приспичило, он встал и в темноте на гвоздь напоролся. Его это взбесило, и он вырвал гвоздь из пола.

Через несколько минут стук в дверь. Мужик открыл дверь. А на пороге стоит некто в белом саване со свечкой, и загробным голосом сказал: — Ты нахуя вырвал гвоздь? У меня люстра с потолка упала.

Вот такая вот крипота.

As a child, the narrator saw a huge white semi-transparent figure waving at him near an abandoned dairy in the village of Staro-Arzamatovo; years later a local confirmed that schoolchildren had also seen the entity.
