No You're Not by fancyfeast

Hey, guys. Since you guys were very accepting of my general experience in my old house I thought I would share with you one of the scariest things that happened to me in that house.

Living With The Unknown by Anakaterine

Sorry if my English is not that good, I am from Greece. I was just about 8 years old when my family brought a new house. During the first few years everything seemed fine.

Office Place by CharlaC

Once again, I have another interesting experience I feel like sharing with everyone.

So now I'm working at a desk with a compu...

The Exit Ramp Calling by B4Freya

I like to write and I'm always conjuring story ideas. I pull ideas from real-life experiences or simply imagine scenarios and ask myself "what if?" questions about them. But it's said that truth is stranger than fiction, and I have to agree. A few years ago, while driving my usual route home from...

My First Experience With The Other Side by shhh_im_sleeping

My first paranormal experience was when I was 19 years old around September 2000. My boyfriend and I weren't speaking at the time. I rode into town around 8:30 pm to see if I could find him. I wanted to apologize to him for my "diva" behavior. I couldn't find him. The town of Callao is a ver...

Ouija Board Aftermath by Jeanene23

I already feel sort of silly for saying all of this, but I would like to see if anybody has experienced similar things. To be honest, I am an Atheist, and for many years I was skeptical about ghosts (yet I still found the topic to be interesting as a kid). Just a few short years ago my sisters a...

They Follow Me by RevengeWillBeSweet

Ever since I was 17 years old I've been having strange paranormal experiences. Don't get me wrong, I wasn't so naive as to think it couldn't possibly be me, such as a mental issue.

This experience happened in September 2011. One day I was sitting in my living room just watching television and I felt small shakes. I stopped for a minute and thought it could have been anything.
