A Gift From My Mother? by shhh_im_sleeping

My Mother passed away on January 5, 2011. Since the day she passed I stay just about every night with my Dad because at his age (he's almost 80) he doesn't like to stay alone. I sleep on the couch in the living room. His bedroom is on the first floor too. The bathroom separates his bedroom from the ...

Playing With Fire by Krom1987

The story I'm about to unfold is one that has haunted me for slightly over a decade now, but is just one (technically my first) of the many stories I have to tell of my, and my fiancé's, paranormal experiences. I live in a small town, south of Sandusky, Ohio, in one of the flattest topographica...

Craigslist Your Ouija Board by Walks_on_Clouds

I'm always on the local Craigslist site looking for a bargain, something odd or unique or something that I can use for my art and found an interesting post in the FREE STUFF category a few months ago. A person was offering his Ouija board for free. He wanted it gone immediately! The post stated ...

In My Head? by saymyname

Good evening all, thank you for taking your time to read my first post. I went through a really tough time when I was a kid with emotional balance. I had imaginary friends but a while ago I was informed he wasn't just any ordinary imaginary friend. In Jr. High I had a boyfriend that was deep int...

Cloud Of Dispersion by WAallday360

About two years ago, I believe it was in the fall, I was trying to fall asleep. I closed my eyes for a bit and all of a sudden everything became silent. No wind, no sprinklers nothing. I opened my eyes and in the corner next to my door I saw a figure. It was blue and then I focused my eyes and i...

Don't Bother Knocking, Just Come On In by Lo-maximo

Let me start by saying this is my one and only story. I feel the need to post it here because it is the only one I cannot explain away and this is the only place I feel I can share it. One warm afternoon (it's Texas, it's always warm there), my mother is visiting with my Aunt in the dining room o...

My Cousins' Haunting by jesyka1234

So this is my first story on this site and it was quite a few years back. I think I was twelve. I was spending the night at my cousins' house after one of their birthday parties and it was around midnight. My cousin Danielle and I were laying in bed waiting for her sister Nathalie to come get us...

Dorm Room Problems by hsupe94

I was sitting in my dorm room with my roommate. We both had our headphones on, completely ignoring each other. My suite mate already left the dorm entirely. I was sitting at my desk working on homework and listening to music. Well, around 8 pm on January 13, 2014 I stared seeing a dark figure in...

The Little House Built On An Indian Burial Ground by Jynx49

I know this may be hard to believe but I can remember some things way back to when I was 3 years old. I'm have recently turned 14 now. It all started me and my family moved into a new house in a neighborhood in Tennessee. I can't remember anything when we first moved in because I was only about 1 ye...

It's Not Just A Game, It's A Twisted Reality by kenneth-chipman

It all starts with me as a young boy. I would often times awake at night in need of a refreshment (I still do to this day). To inform you, this was every night. I would open my door and start walking down the hallway. This creature appearing to be a demonic version of "Crash Bandicoot" himself. ...

Ghost Pretending To Be Girlfriend by superblok

I was staying over at my girlfriend's house and woke up at about 4 a.m. I looked up and saw a face staring at me. It looked like my girlfriend with her glasses on, but the face was a bit different and kind of creepy. I just stared at it for a few seconds but it disappeared. It seemed like she was st...

The Lady In Blue by Emmalove

I am currently visiting a friend in Islamorada, FL and we decided to take a trip to Key West for a day. After wandering around for a couple of hours we decided to grab a drink at a bar called Captain Tony's Saloon. This bar has quite the history. There is a tree growing right through the roof th...

Unexpected Visitor At Grandma's House by RellieBoo1

My ghost story starts at my grandmother's house when I was about 12 years old. Let me give you a minor description of the back room (TV room) I was in at the time. The back room is an add-on extension. There's a back door with the laundry room to the right, an armoire on the wall beside that, and a ...

Basement Ghosts by Tinpy

My family and I had moved into the house were currently living in a few months back. This house belonged to our old landlady and our friend and we had always liked it. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary, I didn't feel any negative energy whatsoever. It started yesterday, my little sister had to ...

A Deal With The Devil by Heath_McCloy

I was a third generation miner, and proud to be. But in the summer of 2010, the 135 year old company closed its door and locked its gate. I was crushed. Having grown-up as a miner, I felt as if I had little to offer the workforce. Besides this, I am from eastern Kentucky and there is very little wor...

No Eyes by jeremyatticus

As you're reading this, keep in mind, I don't remember any of the stuff in the trailer. Everything that happened there is what my mom has talked to me about. I remember everything I have experienced in the house I moved to. I'm sharing this to get answers, I guess. Or to give people a good chill. ...

My First Encounter With The Paranormal by Aomni

I have read many stories on this site over the past few days since finding it and have decided to share one of my personal stories about an encounter that I had when I was a little boy. I cannot remember exactly what age I was but I must have been 7 or 8, and to my knowledge this is the first encoun...

Possible Continued Haunting by infiltrating_sun

My wife and I were vacationing at a cabin my parents own in the North Georgia mountains one weekend and we had quite an experience. My wife and I have had mild experiences with the paranormal before so at the time this happened we both knew there were things out there but this is the most horrified ...

Strange Whispers by shakeandbake6

As a young child, I have always been somewhat sensitive to "otherworldly beings". I had seen several ghosts in my old house when I was a child that I still remember to this day. There were times that I would walk into an old house and immediately got a bad feeling inside. I was told later that t...

Pendulum Scare by thatkidmina

My boyfriend took me to his friend's house because I wanted someone to use the Ouija board with me. They would not let me inside the house with it. I had to leave it on the porch. They finally let me bring it inside a little later. They explained to me how their house was haunted and they consta...

Old Lady Laughs At Me by Smokedank

I do not plan to write a very long story. This takes place about four months ago. I didn't know who to ask about my experiences. One August night around 3 am, I was in my room watching television. I was bored, so I turned off my TV and sat down to use my computer. Right before I opened Google...

Spirits In St. Augustine by searchingforspirits

I live in St. Augustine, FL, where I attend Flagler College. While the dorm I live in is said to be haunted by numerous ghosts, my friends and I have had very few encounters. There are many ghost stories surrounding the girls dorm, the Ponce de Leon, the first of several hotels built by our namesake...

My Sleepless Nights by jazzdecker

For the past 2 months my family and I have been experiencing some strange incidents at night. Mainly it has been affecting me. I happen to be a big fan of Ghost Adventures and watch it it enough to know when something isn't right and the experiences are definitely otherworldly. It all started on...

Guardian Angel In 1965 by Frances23

This is a story that my mother told me about a paranormal experience she had when she was a child. My mom and I are very close, so she's opened up to me about many painful secrets of the abuse she endured in her childhood. Her environment was very dangerous during her early years... And I always bel...

Four Demonic Looking Men In Bedroom Please Help by deidrej24

my name is Deidre I am 25 years old and was born and raised in Winston-Salem, NC. This is my first time sharing a story on here. I recently found the site and thought maybe I could get some answers or ideas from others about my experiences. I have had quite a few experiences with the spirit worl...

A 40-year Haunting And An Attack by SanguineConscripte

In the comments of a previous story that I posted about an entity bothering me while on a religious retreat, several readers voiced their concern that I was involved in a cult and that this "thing" may be trying to warn me. While I don't know quite what to make of the group, I believe that this enti...

A Bit Of A Bother by freddysgirl1984

I've returned again for yet another story on my infamous house ghost of mine! This occurred only around a week ago, so nothing is being exaggerated due to time's sake. It's the favorite months of any teen: June, July, and August. I had just recently returned back from a twelve day trip to Japan, ...

Visitation From My Brother by amberlynn

I have always believed in ghosts/spirits but had no experiences to back this up until my brother passed away. Dewey died 7/24/05. Dewey, his wife and their 2 children had came up to my parents' house for the weekend, since I was celebrating my 21st birthday on the 23rd. Everything had been fine, I w...

My House Is Haunted Apparently by Captainnosebleed

My name is Robert Chapman. I'm 16 and I've been interested in the paranormal for years but recently I've been having some real evidence that my house is haunted. I'd like all of your opinions too, if you feel so kind. I've always heard odd noises in my house that's almost 100 years old. It's an o...

Mind Your Ps And Qs by CrossroadsDog

I've moved around a lot in my life, but a few years ago my husband and I moved to a new state and made the decision to buy our first house. Like most of the houses in the area the one we were looking at was fairly old, but had seen some renovations since originally being built. During our tour of th...

Contacted By A Spirit? by robbied42

Until about a few months ago I never really believed that ghosts or any other type of paranormal existed. I have had strange things happen such as hearing footsteps, hearing as if someone is knocking on a wall, and even hearing objects fall for no reason in the middle of the night. But when small th...

Douppleganger... Need Help? by darling13

I've tried to post this twice now, all I need to know is what is this thing that is messing with my neighbors. I was the first one to see it, it looks exactly like Zack. This happened months ago, when I was walking up the driveway, I looked into the kitchen window. I could have sworn that he was ...

The Presence In The Room by godhatesfigs

My particular experience took place 3 years ago in my dorm room at Urbana University in Urbana, Ohio. I have never shared this story as it still horrifies me and I have feared "it" would come back. Allow me to set the stage for said event: I (20 years old) had just returned to my dorm room, a humble...

Spirit Of A Toddler by Slowmogo

I've never had any sort of major paranormal experience myself, and I kind of hope I never do, but this story does involve me as a sort of ancillary character. I say this because I was way too young to remember anything, but both of my parents tell me this occurred: It started with my great grandm...

A Messenger For A Friend by xdreamerx

Two years ago I was living with my friend and his family. I was told by my friend's family that it was haunted. When I was told this I kind of just shrugged it off. Not saying I don't believe in ghosts or any of the paranormal stuff, but I shrugged it off to get my mind cleared that night so I could...

The Witch by bloodruns

Ghost, aberrations, witches, all seem to fall in the same paranormal grouping so here is a witch story. Summer came like a wanted pleasure. The sun gently caressing down as dew began to absorb into a rich earth which began to spew forth hope. Blazing green shards of grass fought to cover the dyin...

Shadow In The Bathroom by spiritwaiting

This event occurred in my husband's grandmother's home. We were living with her at the beginning of our marriage, trying to get our priorities together. This is the home the Ouija board had been played in (Tragic End by the Ouija). His grandfather had also passed in only 6 months prior. Earl...

Midnight Visit From A Worried Spirit by strayx

Thank you for reading this and I look foreword to any comment, or help that can be given. I decided to post this after taking a break from the site, and after reading a post from the member fourthgeneration. Two years after the initial shock of my stepmother dying when I was about 15, I was used...

Ghostly Living Room Guest And Disturbed Spirits by pjs1977

My name is Paul. I come on here a lot and I love reading all of your stories. I have my own story to share. Every time I visit my sister in Staten Island I always have an encounter with something paranormal. From the moment I enter her house I get a strange feeling, almost like I am being watche...

Rather Intense Childhood by draculasgal

This is something that I have been dealing with as long as I can remember, and it feels like for some reason these darker things are coming back into my life. I don't know whether they are following me or have always been attached to me. Either way, I know they are no figment of my imagination and I...

Mystery Hints by mellsanford

I don't see ghosts, and I haven't been followed my whole life by one. But ever since I moved in with my dad and his wife things have gotten pretty weird. I moved from Florida to South Carolina about 3 years ago when I was a junior in high school. I remember one evening walking home from the scho...

Ghost Scaring My Dog? by cakelehde

My dog Maisy sleeps with me in bed and always has since I got her as a puppy. I get in bed and she snuggles up next to me, I pet her and talk to her for a while and then I turn off all the lights and read YGS on my Android until I get sleepy. One typical night we went through our routine. I had...

Ghost Dog Or Something Else? Part 2 by cakelehde

I have been seeing what I thought was my dog around the house only to turn to talk to her and she's not there and is in another part of the house entirely. You will need to read the "Ghost Dog or Something Else?" story I posted several months ago to get full details. This is a short update on a rece...

A Guardian Angel? by Afraidnolonger

I've been reading stories on this site for a little over a year and decided it was finally time to submit my own paranormal experiences. I will also share some of my family members' experiences a little later because I feel they should be shared with others. Before I tell my first few happenings,...

Rainbow Ghost by InspireMe

I have no explanation for this experience. I need some input to perhaps make sense? I have three beautiful grandsons. The oldest is 4 soon to be five, the next is 3 and the youngest is only 2 months. This experience happened 2 months ago and my husband and I still haven't come up with the answer ...

Home Sweet Hell by kahleah

This all started when I was only 4-5 years old. I used to hear scratching and bumps in my room and would have horrible nightmares, running into my grandparents' room in tears begging them not to make me go back into my room but of course they didn't believe me. The years went on and every once in a ...

My Guardian Angels by vanlewie232711

I am Vanlewie232711 and I am going to tell you about my guardian angels. I first heard them when I was 17. I have always felt followed, yet never in danger. The very first time I heard one speak I was walking to work as I had just got this job at Burger King in Charleston, SC. I was on the side ...

Grandpa's Way Of Comfort by spiritwaiting

A few years after my grandfather passed, I was in mourning. He and I had a very special relationship. We were very much the father and daughter type. His passing, as I've posted in another story "Grandpa Saying Goodbye" under Taurus83, was sudden. He died from bacteria throughout his body. Altho...

Creak And Cackle by mrbubbles_delta

several years ago I moved out of my parents house and into an apartment on my own. The first night I slept there I heard an unusual creaking noise from the corner of my bedroom ceiling. It sounded so much like that creature from "The Grudge" that I looked at the corner to make sure that my walls wer...

Some Sweet Folks, Whatever They Were by Swimsinfire

To tell this story, I'll have to admit something I don't usually bring up because I don't want it to be an issue. Until last month, my son and I were gypsy roving in our van. We lived pretty comfortably and healthy since we know how to do outdoor reasonably well, and we earn a living as vendors ...
