Real Poltergeist Experience In A Bar by Fashionista777

A few years ago, I bartended in a dark, dank, creepy, hole-in-the-wall bar. During that time, I'd witnessed countless "weird things" done by my regular (read: rowdy) customers, enough to fill a book.

I believe in the supernatural. I believe that things happen for a reason. There are things that happen in my life that I see and feel, things that science can't explain. It has been more than 4 years since the incident and I can't help but think about that day. It replays over and over. I've dealt w...

Reassurance from Mum by tresco_el

I never really knew my mother. She died when I was eleven.

Red Eyes And Demonic Laughter by Am_a_am

I never really was religious, so I didn't know what I was seeing, or why. The truth is I've been seeing the Shadows ever since I could remember.

Reversal by Athena

There was never a time that I didn't sense beings.

There was a male presence felt b...

So we pulled up and parked in the parking lot of the Oceanside Carl's J and ordered some food. After eating, we went out to my car and began reviewing my cell phone recording.

Ruined Church & Dogs At Night by Donal

Given the geography, this MAY be connected to my previous story. It also sounds like the plot from a bad horror film, I apologise for that. But it happened.
