Pages not in directory showing up on google analytic

I've been using google analytics for my website for awhile now and haven't had any problems. Just today though I checked the all pages tab under Behavior->Site Content and found something very strange. A bunch of pages that aren't on in my websites directory are now appearing there and saying they have traffic (albeit very little). Here's a link to an image of the pages: https://i.sstatic.net/i138Z.jpg

I've verified that non of these pages exist on my live server or in the directory on my local machine. Does anyone know what might be causing this? Or how I can get rid of these pages on my website? I've searched around on google but have had no luck figuring out whats going on.

Thanks for the help in advance!

Its a good idea to have a Raw View with no filters, but then also a filtered view with a include:yourdomainname.com added, to filter out any possible hits sent by people copying your GA tracking code.
