Strong Smell Of Cigar Smoke And The Knock by Canyouseeme

I've read a number of stories on this website and compared to them, mine is not all that good. I have two stories to share. My first story happened to my mother and sister more so than me. We moved into our second house when I was around ten or eleven years old. The previous owner was an old man ...

See Through Ghost by JoannaS

My ghostly incident happened nine or ten years ago on a hilltop in West Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, UK. The area has belonged to Lord Dashwood's family and the National Trust in the UK for many years and there is much written about the area on the internet as it is of historical interest. Although ...

My Garage by steph_western

Before I start there is something you should know. I am not entirely sure that I do actually believe in ghosts. I have questioned myself many times on my beliefs. However, the fact that I am afraid there is a ghost present proves that I believe, even just a little, right? I had been asked over t...

Jingles Of The Bell by Surya

In my story the bell, I had been hearing bells for a good three weeks. I thought it was that cat but when I looked around the home Inca (out cat's names) was nowhere in sight. I am not the only to have heard this bell. My youngest son has heard it as well. However, I am not sure if he hears it now. ...

Paranormal Healing? by beavis

I have many stories, one of which I am (almost) dying to share... But I will write that next time. This happened while I was in a pub known as ' the angel inn ', which is not to far from London, south side of London. Addington I think to be precise. A beautiful pub, the place I had undertaken my...

Haunted Victorian House by hanzrokz

My parents, brother and I were looking to buy a house. My mum and dad looked at an old Victorian house and put an offer in for the house. The following month we received a phone call and a letter saying "you've got the house you put an offer on a month ago". My parents, brother and I got a big sh...

The Man In My Bedroom by laus

First of all in my other story "Soul Surfing" I mentioned that this was my first happening with the paranormal, but I have gone over this in my head and from other things I have been told I have realized that this is probably my first experience. I haven't had many though, I'm not one of those "ghos...

The People In The School by mee13

I was with one of my friends (let's call her Jane); at about quarter to 10, it was winter so it was really dark. We were going back to my house so we decided to take a short cut through a primary school grounds. We had just started walking through the school when I saw a very tall man over by an old...

Drama Room by stubbington

I was always a keen Drama student. My friend, Chrissie, and me used to go back there on most nights after school to practice our performance. We used to love Drama back then. Well, one day the rest of our group didn't show up (as per usual!) after school one time so we decided to rehearse oursel...

Old Man Choking Me by SarahX

At the moment I am 17 years of age, but since quite young age of around 9/10, I have experienced some abnormal things happening in my house. But not to any of my other family members (Mum, Dad, Brother). Just me. When we were having an extension built I was moved to the spare room, which is directl...

It Started Off As A Laugh by Quasar

This incident occurred in 2001 during my final year at university in London. Myself and a group of friends found ourselves sitting in a student residence kitchen on a Friday night in November with limited funds and little ideas for entertainment. Pondering on our plans for the night a friend of mine...

Dolly by stubbington

As young children, I and younger sister Annie used to share a bedroom. We lived in a detached house in the outskirts of Stubbington and our parents had just left to go to a party. I, being 11, and Annie, being 8, were sitting on our beds playing 'I Spy.' Our babysitter shouted upstairs that it was t...

Pssst Meena by Surya

I cannot remember the exact year, but this Pssst Meena started around about September 1998 (I remember the month and year as it was the year I started working at the airport). My bedroom was painted manila; my dad had the whole house painted this color, whilst a very common color I always found i...

Ouija Board Fright by laurenemmam

This is yet another story that my Grandma (from 'The Monk Next Door') told me. And, as promised, I spoke to her about the Monk story and she has confirmed that the grounds next door were in face a monastery. She was around last Friday because I was seeing my new ice skating dress that was being m...

An Unexplainable Event by jenrose

To understand the basics of my story, I'll have to tell you a little bit about my life first. I'm from a large town in England, Milton Keynes. I'm 17 years old, and live with my mum, sister and step-dad. I have a younger brother and that's where my story begins. When I was 7, my sister was 9 a...

First Ghost Encounter Experience by secondsight

In my teenage years, 13-17 years old, I'd feel a tingling sensation through my body, especially in my hands and fingertips. When I'd be by myself in my bedroom, and had my music on too loud, I'd think "oh I'll turn it down in a minute I'm busy". I'd get the feeling in my hands, and sense someone in ...

The Ghost Lady That Hated Men by JohnCraig7

Back in June of 2004, I had a girlfriend that lived in Llandrindod Wells, Wales, that I visited quite often. The house was an old Tudor building, three floors, very tall with high ceilings. On my first visit there I felt very cold, but I put it down to the house being very old, with old fashion w...

Our Sister by Georgeyboy

I was in temporary accommodation, and the block of flats were about circa 1920s. I was in bed one evening when I heard people chattering and glasses clin...

Bedroom Frights by Nexus997

I think I will get straight to the point with this. I was simply tidying my room up, after my brother (who is 8 years old) completely trashed the room. I had put his Darth Vader helmet on top of my wardrobe right at the back near the wall when I noticed that my drawer was open. Now I had not recalle...

Bedroom Fright by hazzardsyndrome

This is my second experience at my house. It's strange because as I said in my last story I've lived here all my life and haven't experienced anything until about a year ago. I know this seems such a typical "I was drifting off to sleep/just woke up/was really tired etc" but I still can't shake ...

Bedtime Horrors by Nexus997

This is completely true this happened yesterday. It was at 1:27AM, I was watching mock the week on Dave, when I fell asleep.

Living as a young boy in Belfast (Ligoneil road), I awoke one morning to see a young girl dressed in Victorian clothes playing with toys in my bedroom.

Dark Shadow by zappafan

Just thought that I would like to share my story, maybe some of you have had a similar experience or could even have some sort of theory. First it happened when I was alone in the kitchen, a feeling of being uncomfortable and of being watched. I did not see or hear anything. These feelings usu...

Second Presence At Dmu Uni Leicester by blayzeamyotte

A lot has happened recently in both mine and my brother's dorm rooms. Little things like lights flickering, shadows that are unexplainable, cold spots. It seems to center around when my brother is sick, or when we are apart from each other. On the night of 13th October 2008, my brother was sleep...

Sleep Paralysis Drawings by Oglegen

Once again I'm submitting some short accounts that are not my own, but I have been given permission by the owner themselves to publish them.

My twin brother is deaf. We're both at Demonfort University in Leicester. UK. It was around 1;50 am a few nights ago he came to my dorm room and told me he saw a shadow in the corner of his room, so I went down to check and found nothing. He insisted I stay with him, so I did overnight. It w...

Am I Dead...? by TigerLily

This story is about my mum (Christine) again, but this time I have decided to put the story in Christine's point of view.

Spooky House In North London by funnybubble

I didn't believe in any kind of ghosts, visions, witches etc. Before. I was characteristic realist until I came to North London to stay at English family and work there as their au-pair babysitter for one year. It was really good for me. I enjoyed spending nice time with that wonderful seven years o...

At The Crossroads by Easykiel

The experience that I recount here is an old one, having happened when I was sixteen years old, which is seven years ago. It happened in the small village of Hindhead, which is built around a crossroads that has been there for quite some time. Perhaps a little history is necessary, to set the moo...

The Night Sweeper And Window Tapper by Surya

I thought this was just my imagination running wild but I am now convinced it is not. I have been waking up between 11:50 pm and 12:53 am, but not every night. It seems to be the nights I drift of to sleep as soon as I hit the pillow. I wake up to someone sweeping my garden. At first, I thought I...

Our Neighbour's Ghost by Yanda007

I was thirteen years old and was walking home from my friends house as she lived across the road from me. It was winter and already quite dark around 9.30 pm. The curfew set by my parents was 9.30 pm, so I know the time must have been just before. Due to having lost my front door key several tim...

Something Not Of This World by hauntedbytheliving

I think I may have been visited by Satan. Recently, I have been visited when I'm alone by something not of this world, but whatever it is, it's not a spirit either. To start off with, I was just able to feel its presence. I could tell something was watching me when I was alone in bed on a night. I...

How Do I Tell Others About This? by MissY732

I am seventeen years of age and I have started watching a program on tv called Ghost Whisperer.

The Girl On The Stairs by loopy666

It was only last year, just before Christmas and I was thirteen when it all began or so I thought. Little did I know that this was not the start of my ghostly encounter!

The Old Lady In The Living Room by Georgeyboy

This is my first time sharing an experience on here, but I wanted to share a particular occurrence that I remember clearly and see what sort of feedback I get.

Paranormal Activity In My Bedroom by Lost_memory

Where to start? I'm an optimistic when it comes to the paranormal, I'd like to believe that there's an afterlife.

Ghost That Follows Me Around? by lolly

However, upon investigating literally moments later there was no one upstairs. A little spooked, I went downstairs and spoke to my Mum about it. It was then she told me that there were a few incidences since I'd left home. She would often see a figure leaning over our stair banister watching her whi...

Re-occurring Dream 3 by Surya

This is not written so well as I am very tired today. Last night I had the dream again and I am absolutely exhausted. Well, you have had two parts, only the second being more terrifying than the first for me. Last night (18th August 2008) I kissed my partner goodnight and Inca has snoozed off in...
