15 Movie Theatre Stories From An Employee You'd Wish Weren't True

People go to the movies to enjoy films, but apparently, some individuals have other plans.

There's just nothing that can compare to the feeling of being in the cinema and watching the movie you've been waiting for while munching on some warm popcorn and slurping on drinks. It's an experience many of us always look forward to, no matter our age.

As nice as that sounds, though, working in a movie theatre isn't all pleasant and fuzzy. Let us tell you, the lives of movie theatre workers aren't as glamorous as those of the stars we're watching on the big screen.

See, while some of us are gleefully enjoying the movie, we're unaware of what's happening backstage. And well, let's just say that a lot of the things happening backstage are kind of outrageous.

From screaming unruly customers to people doing weird things in the cinema, movie theatre employees never run out of stories to tell. Some are fun, but others are stories you would wish weren't true.

Still, it's amusing to hear some of these stories, and Imgur user Hymeria has a lot of them. Keep scrolling and read the funniest ones she has.

Please don't be one of those people in the cinema, alright?
