Crazy Christmas Call Or Just A Crazy Christmas, Maybe? by m4dm1nnes0tan

I know people have told many ghost stories and most people will not believe them. Frankly, I was one of those non-believers when I was younger. Yeah my family would watch paranormal movies and out of this world kind of things. But who would think that something like that could possibly be real? Watc...

My Childhood Imaginary Friends by theshedcrew

When I was a young child (about 4 years old), I had 2 imaginary friends named Cap and Key. I only saw and played with them when I visited my grandmother's house in Attleboro, MA. It wasn't until I was older when my grandmother told me that I would often get into trouble and blame my friend Key. ...

Thirsty Ghosts by carolineps

Every night since I moved into my new home 4 years ago, at 8:35 P.M., I hear footsteps in the hallway above the living room. The first few times it freaked me out but now it doesn't scare me. A few nights ago, I was in the kitchen making myself dinner, when I watched the water faucet turn off, then ...

Is She Really A Ghost? by owlsely

This is actually an experience that a friend of mine had about five months ago, but he said it was fine for me to post it here, since he knows how much I browse this site. When my friend--lets call him Rob--and I were in elementary school, he was a bully. He would pick on kids older, younger, an...

I Keep Seeing Something Out Of The Corner Of My Eye? by crs1331

We just moved to Moultrie and found a wonderful home and the rent is more than reasonable. $575 a month for a 4 bedroom 3 bath. From the moment we moved in we felt welcome but watched. I immediately had this uncontrollable urge to fix this beautiful old house back up but in its original state. I ass...

Possible For Spirits To Follow? by Springfairy556

I have heard of spirits following people, but I always seemed to not believe in it, until all these things have been happening to me. I first started feeling uneasy in my home back in 2004, I would get the sense of being watched, I would get cold spots where it was warm in other areas, the hair o...

Psychic? by Feliciaaxox

As a kid I remember how my dog died. It died when it was paralyzed in our laundry room. Every day in the afternoon the week after she died I would go in the laundry room and call my mom in because I saw my dog. I would see her for a brief time then it would leave until the next day. Then after my gr...

The Figures by xxxrockriotxx

I have always believed in spirits. A year ago I started seeing things out the corner of my eyes, but whenever I turned they would vanish. It looked like a black shadow, but I just shrugged it off. I kept feeling as if I was being watched. But there was never anyone there. One day I was walking home ...

Triad Of Apparently Haunted Closets by VermontVampyre

I know that I am new to this site and thus my credence isn't very high amongst you all. I know also that I have no right to claim to be a psychic or medium. However, I will tell my story as it happened as truthfully as my memory will allow me to recount it. The first closet I speak of was the one...

A Sighting Unlike Any Other I've Experienced by EdenMarie

Just over two weeks ago I had woken up in the morning and went straight to the coffee pot as I normally do. It was 7:47 am. I knew this because of the two rather large clocks I have to pass on my way to the coffee pot. Just as I was walking into the kitchen, my eyes were drawn to our back door, whic...

Restless On The Stairs by Zack84

In the late 90s to early 2000s while I was attending high school my mother decided it was time for us to move from the country and back into "town." This was fine with me as it meant I would at last be in walking distance of things to do. The house she purchased was a two story white Victorian with ...

Gone In A Flash by mac317

My husband and I stayed at the infamous Myrtles Plantation for our first wedding anniversary. Aside from myself experiencing various, random feelings of dizziness and nausea, my husband witnessed a bright blue flash of light illuminate the bathroom. It was in the evening and I was getting ready ...

Confused About The Ghost by Niccanix

I've had ghost experiences all my life. But recently in the past two years, it has been extremely active. I want to give a few of many examples and see if anyone knows what the ghost wants. First, this happened last night. I woke up in the middle of the night with loud, excessive talking. This was...

My Experience At Aunt And Uncle's House by majikmind

My name is Derek. My story took place in Frankfort, Indiana in my aunt and uncle's house in 1994. It has been a long time ago but I still remember it like it happened yesterday. I was living with my aunt, uncle, and cousins while my parents were in between selling our old house and buying a new ...

The Blue House by Kay4

In September 2010 I bought a house in a suburb north of Boston. The gentleman who I bought the house from had built it in 1948 and had lived there since. The house was sold because he was in his 90's and could not live on his own any longer. His wife had passed away a few years earlier. The hous...

Of Wee Ghosties And A Haunted School by valkricry

Recently Oak Park Elementary celebrated its 120th year, which would have meant it was built around 1893. However, some suspect the school is even older since the existing records do not date farther back. Perhaps the anniversary is why this story feels the need to be told. Back in 1979, I was th...

White Figure by epicunicorn8165

Every year an event in which a lot of high schoolers stay at this play (I forgot the name of it) for four days straight. In the day we go to downtown Houston and help people, clean trash, etc. At night we play games like "Ghost in the Graveyard" which is where my story starts. Ghost in the Gravey...

My Experience At The Cemetery by GrimlinGod

I was walking in Decatur, Illinois, Greenwood Cemetery's path when I saw two figures which I could've sworn were two people smoking a cigarette and I was in need of one. So I asked the people (figures) if they had a cigarette they could spare. One of them turned around and all I saw was a dark shado...

Between Sleep And Awake by jlynn1979

Last night my 18 year old daughter experienced something that scared her very much. She stayed at a friend's house and had a nightmare with the whole family in it. She could not move or speak even in the nightmare. When she finally awakened there was a shadow figure and a dog staring at her. She...

My Father's Story - Confusing A Skeptic by elnoraemily

This story is not my own. It is my father's, who I believe to be credible. I am an atheist/skeptic (hold the preaching, it's not what this site is for) and I've spent a while debunking nearly every ghost story I've heard or read simply with very obvious real world examples. For example, if you wak...

Helen by StaceyM

My husband and I were going to sleep on a typical weeknight last week. The television was off and the bedroom was dark, except for natural moonlight coming through the tops and bottoms of the windows. I was in that "twilight" sleep; relaxed and still, but still fully awake. All of a sudden, I heard ...

Expirence Didn't Help Me With This One by spooney

There have always been "ghosts" around my family. I even have one that follows me house to house and showers at 2 am. This has freaked more than one roommate out. I had an interesting experience in my new home and this one even shook me. The 2nd night I slept in my new place, I had a dream. The ...

I live in a one-story house by a private lake in a gated community with my mother, and my two sisters, Lily and Rose. I am the oldest child at fifteen, as Lily is nine and Rose is seven.

The Shadow Person And The Growl by Bleakwaters

One of my good friends'sister is a ghost hunter and she was telling me about the experiences she has had after starting the ghost hunting.

Lightning That Wasn't There by ChildOfTheLotus

Firstly, I'm sorry this is story is much more boring than my other ones. I just felt like I needed to share it, boring or not. I really felt something strong. Not every story is incredible. About five months ago (October of 2012), I had another odd experience. Down the street from my home at the ...

Shadow Figure Above Bed by leeyuuhluhh

I'm scared and I just want to know what to expect from the things I am experiencing. I am a firm believer in the supernatural from multiple, terrifying, demonic experiences that I went through when I was 15 years old. It started with my father when I was 15. One night I came home from shopping...

Don't Say My Name by BitterSweet78801

My Grandfather Saved My Life by chrisstar

So to sum up the wonderful month I've had. I broke up with my girlfriend; moved out of the apartment from the previous story, then I beat the crap out of my now ex best friend. (Bet you can't guess how the break-up with my girlfriend and the beating my now ex-best friend got are connected.) Anyw...

I have a decent memory of these events but I will publish more stories later on. I moved into my new home around 12/18/1998 I was 7yrs old and ...

Coffee Time? by valkricry

Let me begin by saying, unusual occurrences are not 'new' for me. Indeed, until I was in my 30's I could see, hear, and sense things that other's couldn't. However, these things deeply disturbed my then husband, and I pretty much shut it off, I guess. As they say, "if you don't use it, you lose it."...

My Daughter Heard Me Call Her Name When I Did Not Call Her by turtlemom

A few nights ago, about 30 minutes after I put my daughters to bed, one of my 7 year old twin daughters came into the den saying, "Why were you calling me, Mommy?". I told her I did not call her and she insisted I had called her name twice and told her it was an "emergency". I just told her everythi...

The Shed by Rust1869

Two years ago I moved into a rented house. It has a big forest as most of its backyard. It also has a pretty big sized shed. When I first moved in I just always felt like I was being watched. There was this little knob that must have been in the shed when we moved in because we have no idea where it...

Something Is Under The Bed by MAL0645

When I was thirteen years old, I had an experience that I can't explain which gave me a horrible scare. Shortly after my grandpa passed away, I lay awake in bed one summer night thinking of him as I listened to my sister snoring across from me. My dad had left for work and my mother was in her room ...

The Black-eyed Man, Part One by ghostchaser489

I've been wrestling with sharing this story for some time, because there are so many other stories interwoven. Recently I realized that most of my life's negative happenings are intertwined, and I believe this single being to be the cause of it. I will begin by saying that my father was deep into sa...

Train Conductor In The Closet by Taynevada

This isn't my own story, but my brother's. When I was about 7 I lived in Utah about 30 minutes away from Salt Lake City in a really old house in the mountains. We had to fix it up a lot because it was kind of worn down, but nothing seemed wrong with it other than that. My brother was really into tra...

A Ghost Story From 20th And Broadway? by alandhopewell

This one was strange, and I was never sure exactly how to categorize it; I blogged about it, under a kind of "WT*?" heading. At 20th and Broadway in Lorain, on the northwest corner, sits a storefront property. Today, it's vacant, and the basement entrance is concreted over. In the 60s, there was ...

Boy At The Cemetery by ghosthunter102

A few years ago, I was going to the cemetery with my mom to visit my grandpa. My grandpa is buried in Pinelawn, on the side where the deceased are buried in slots in walls. Across the street and a little bit down the block from my grandpa, are my grandma's parents, who we also visit when we go visit...

Mommy. Mommy. I Gotta Go Potty, Mommy by SilverBear

Since I've gotten pregnant, I've noticed I've been more sensitive than usual. Where something wouldn't stand out to me normally, I find it standing out and beyond the crowd. My homes have always active. Every single one I've moved into, new or not, has had someone/something move in with me. It's alw...

The Corner by alyssamarie

Even though my house is only 15 years old, built on farmland, and we are the only family to have ever lived here, I still know that there's something not quite right. I've had tons of experiences here, from doors opening and rattling to footsteps of someone walking around my room at night. One time ...

Paranormal Experiences As A Child by KatieBear

I have a few stories of small encounters that I thought I would share. All of these happened when I was a child, and some I remember as young as 4 or 5. When I was little, I would often see, hear, and even do things I cannot explain. There were times I would hear my name being called, sometimes ...
