Dad Will Not Vacate His House by jimbonumber9

My Dad passed away in September 2017 after getting out of bed late at night. He fell down and hit his head on walk-in closet door frame and didn't regain consciousness even after he was taken to the hospital. I believe that his spirit was thrown from his body at that point. He had no spiritual belie...

My 1st Experience by Raider143

I lived in this small hometown in northwestern New Mexico, where I lived in a house that I rented for a short time. I remember moving in and the landlord never did mention anything happening in this house so I had no idea what I was in for. The first few months living there was quiet and nothing out...

Goodbye And Proof From Dad by Berggraf38

My dad passed away suddenly and unexpectedly about a year and a half ago. I've hesitated to post the series of experiences that I had afterward but after reading many inspiring personal experiences on this site, I've decided to go ahead. Maybe someone will be inspired by them, I certainly was. The f...

Barbie Legs (help) by Sempiternal

This is but one of countless experiences of which I've bore witness. Being a Wiccan Initiate, it is vital that I keep the psychic door propped wide open (not that I could close it anyway). Being in the Four Corners area (New Mexico), paranormal occurrences are not so paranormal. But this is a strang...

Why Me?! by Doraannew33

My story starts way back when I was 4 or 5. I would always wake up with pots and pans banging and cabinet doors slamming. I had siblings but only two and this would happen to me very morning. When I would wake up everyone was sound asleep and I would be the only one awake, I would sometimes wake u...

The Bloody Girl by ghostsandglasses

This is a true story. It happened at one of my friend's sleepovers. _ After my friends and I were done talking about the regular things girls would talk about at sleepovers, we decided to do something scary. I knew that my friend, Hannah, was trying to be brave, as paranormal stuff isn't re...

Possesed by Kyle_Zahney

Hey guys, Kyle again. I'm Native American, Navajo Specifically. If you hear stories about paranormal or strange creatures around my area, The Navajo Reservation. I can first hand say its true, here's my story. This happened the summer after I had finally graduated high school, I lived at my gran...

Grandma? Or Worst by Kyle_Zahney

Hey guys, I'm Kyle. I'm a Navajo and you must've heard strange tales about my land the Navajo Reservation. I can confirm from experience that the stories and sights are true. My grandmother died 5 months of leukemia before I was born, I wonder how she would've been if she still were here. At the...

Shadows On The Wall by Deciduous

This has been going on since I was around...I'd say nine years old and it still continues bugging me to this day. Ever since I was small I was afraid of the dark. I'd run to my parents room if I heard any little sound at night. Here is how the shadow nightmare started. One night... I had woken up a...

Haunted Base by Merika1776

I'm new to the site and would love to share my experiences with all of you. I have been serving in the United States Air Force for approximately 8 years now and have seen my fair share of the world. Each new place I have visited has brought me new and exciting experiences. The same cannot be said fo...

Singing Angel by Aaron13lib

So when I was younger (about 11) my family and I lived in a two bedroom trailer. We had a small little hallway coming from the living room to the main room. My mom is Christian and she listens to a Christian music radio station and we would listen most of the time in car rides (keep this in mind). ...

What Attacked Tim? by Zephyrin

Generations of my family have spent their summer vacations at our old adobe cabin in the mountains of Northern New Mexico. It is in a tiny secluded valley we fondly call Valley Jo, where two rivers and three mountains all come together. Once in a while when we you are sitting out on the porch at nig...

Was That Something? by elnoraemily

I have complained for years on this site about nothing happening in my life that could be deemed ghostly. Now, I am not sure if I actually experienced something or if my mind and I are just not getting along. This was about a week ago (and brought me back to this site after a few months' abse...

When She Proved Me Wrong by elnoraemily

I kept saying I would write this multiple times. This story involves the same girl from Frantic Energy and Can I Just Not See Them (I had mentioned before that she had proven me wrong and this is it). She has been a friend of mine for years now and has always been very vocal about her beliefs in...

Can I Just Not See Them? by elnoraemily

This story deals with the same friend who was in the Frantic Energy story I posted- she apparently is very sensitive to the paranormal and energy. A recent post on here reminded me of this encounter. When we were a bit younger (not young enough to excuse being this stupid), there was an abandone...

Im Starting To Think I'm Haunted by kdw7222

So this starts out when I was about 8 in Fountain Colorado... I laid awake on my side one night in the living room "camping out" and felt incredibly uneasy and had a cold tingly sensation when it felt like someone had just touched my shoulder. No one was around so I brushed it off. A couple of weeks...

Frantic Energy by elnoraemily

I had been saving this story for myself, since it's very odd and was a bit strange, but I figured I may as well share it. My close friend has always called herself sensitive and she has quite a few stories- nothing outlandish enough for me to ever question her, though I am very much on the fence wit...

My Fiance's Experiences by elnoraemily

My fiance grew up in a house his parents built. It was on old ranch land in the local Bosque (wooded area near a river). It was a huge house- five bedrooms upstairs, a huge dining and living area downstairs. It was all tile floors with high ceilings, so sound spread easily through the house. His...

Life Of A Sensitive by KibaxChan

There was a house I lived in right next to my middle school and we moved in at the end of 5th grade. While in that home, I attempted to use a homemade Ouija board to contact the spirits I knew were already there. I would feel a strong presence enter the room every time I was alone. Nightly, I could ...

A Series Of Strange Events by KibaxChan

I have been trying to rid myself of an entity for the past few months, but it keeps coming back. Last month, I smudged the house and it caused the entity to leave until very recently. The activity is starting up once again and I wanted your opinions on what you think it could be and what the best co...

Expect The Unexpected With Shadow People by KibaxChan

MY EXPERIENCES I've had several experiences with shadow people, but I don't think that they have ever been the same exact entity twice. My experiences range from neutral to malevolent, but I have never crossed paths with a benevolent shadow being. I have been an empath since birth, but my sensitivi...

Desert Mischief by Maus

I have had only a handful of experiences during the course of my 38 years that can be labeled as unusual, unsettling, or potentially supernatural. Most of these experiences have faded, and become brittle over the years. Any sense of import I may have pinned to them has been diluted with the usual li...

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...

Possible Reaper? by mrluce

I have always been a light sleeper. The last few nights I had difficulty sleeping. I went to bed last night at approximately 2200. I tossed a bit, then at approximately 2330, my partner came home and woke me to let me know she was home (as she always does) I went back to sleep. I woke again later at...

A Night Out by Ladybug-

This happened the summer of 2006. My friend and I had the whole Saturday hanging out, shopping and sightseeing. We live in a small town not far from the border of Arizona and New Mexico. In the evening, we went back to my house to eat dinner. My husband at the time had cooked dinner. He had made...

Apartment Haunting by Seeker1

As promised here are a few more happenings in the South West, USA. All of which occurred in the same apartment. As Bugs Bunny would say: " I knew I shouldn't have taken that left in Al-bah-curr-key!" My husband and I have sort of been nomads up until now, working where we were needed in our pa...

Unexpected Run In 2 by mamachong

So today is a perfect day to submit another story. It is one of the two or three holidays that the building is closed and no one around to bug me. I waited until both of my patrols were done before submitting. I'm a little disappointed. I was hoping for a better ghost story from tonight on my end, b...

My Mom's Last Goodbye by mamachong

So, my mom died on June 25, 2013 at 9:21 pm. She had been in the hospital due to her breathing and asthma both acting up. Come finding out, her intestines were blocked and not functioning. She had surgery, but died a week and a half later. She had been in the hospital for three weeks, in an induced ...

Unexpected, Agitated Run In by mamachong

This happened about a week after my mom had died. She died June 25th of this year 2013. So this would be around the beginning week of July as I had taken 3 paid bereavement days and 2 unpaid days, which were my normal days off. I'm just trying to give you a time frame. So, it's my first day back...

A Ghost With A Sense Of Humor by VividNature

My then girlfriend lived for a couple of months in a trailer in Alamogordo, New Mexico. We both felt like there was something there, some sort of unpleasant feeling. The neighbor told her that the last person who had lived there was a drug dealer. The back room had a particularly creepy sort of feel...

Who Was He? by mpompa

I can't say, like some people, that I saw or was afraid of something unknown watching me. However I can say that I grew up in a family where three of the six members reported feeling, seeing or hearing things. Maybe it was because the three members that didn't were under the age of 10. An adult's...

Who Was In My Backyard? by Andrea22

This experience was very short but it was enough to stay in my memory for a long time. It happened when I was 14. And I'm 23 now so it was almost 10 years ago. I lived in Tennessee at the time. While I was growing up I always shared a room with my younger sister, but when I became a teenager and n...

My Weekend Was Paranormal by Andrea22

This past Saturday I helped my friend with moving. But it wasn't just any ordinary move... It was more like helping her flee from her own house! She'd been telling me for the last month about how it was haunted. She woke up with feelings of horrible dread and would watch a shadow move around the roo...

New Mexico Ghost Car by Wyatt13

I swear to God the following story is true, and happened to me in about 2002. I was driving through New Mexico around 2 am or so one night on a remote section of I-40 heading west. I had the cruise control set at about 88 mph and there had been no cars anywhere in sight for some time. I was t...

Miscellaneous Occurrences by mamachong

To start with, I'm going to put two sightings in here from back in 2001 to 2003. I have had a few more occurrences, but there's not much to write about, so to meet the criteria I'll add them. So here goes... 2001/2003 - I was staying with some friends between moving and what not. There was and st...

Ghost Man Or Skinwalker? by Roamer12

I live in Gallup, NM a city surrounded by Native American culture and history. We have many surrounding towns and reservations that have been here for a very long time and many people claim they are haunted. My experience actually takes place right in Gallup on the east side of the city near a v...

Mrs. Morris by Andrea22

Around the time that I was born, my parents were offered a house in Indiana. A friend of my father offered to let us use it. The friend said he would pay the rent as long as we took care of it. This friend, his mother had recently died in that house. A lot of his mother's belongings were still store...

Guardian by BareXenolith

I didn't come by my experiences by mistake, or by some inter-demensional flaw, or whatever paranormal experts call the ability to see things beyond the physical. I inherited it from my maternal grandmother, who had a ton of experiences, but I'll save those for later. The first time I ever had an...

My Eerie Room by helter-skelter

Im not sure where to start, but here it goes. Ever since I could remember, my room has always felt eerie! My first experience in my room was when is about 5-9 years old. I would wake up from being deeply asleep and saw my walls like melting! It freaked me out and it happened a couple of times. I cou...

She Moaned by LindaG

This happened on November 2nd 2011. I had been displaced by a fire at my apartment complex, so I was given temporary housing at another complex until repairs were completed. The apartment was small, dark, and run-down, but it was my only option at the time. From the moment I arrived there, I felt ...

Multiple Form Doppleganger by mamachong

I just recently subbmitted a story called ocassional encounters. This story is related to that story, and is in the same trailer. I recently changed jobs. I wasn't getting any hours, no raises, and I wasn't getting the hours I wanted, which was graveyard. I got a much better job, with better pay, an...

I'm Really Curious About Some Of My Experiences by Curious225

I'll start by saying I have no clue what happened. I grew up in a Catholic family (turns out I wasn't related to them) and they greatly believed in anything spiritual. Of course, there were stories of me talking to people as a baby, which I'm certain everyone has had. My mom said my conversations...

Headless In Indiana by Andrea22

The following is pretty short... But very very strange! There aren't that many details for me to tell because it was only a moment, but enough to be shocking and always remembered. It's actually something that happened to my father. He told me about a ghost, or whatever it might have been, that he s...

Occasional Paranormal Encounters by mamachong

I recently moved into my trailer about a year in a half ago, a little longer maybe. We were there for a few months before we noticed anything. One night I was up rather late. Sometime in the three am time frame. I heard two quick taps on the wall. The taps were not loud, nor were they quiet. I l...

The Ghost Car Of Highway 58 by Andrea22

My title might sound like the opening to a fictional story, but strangely this was a real life event that made me feel like I was stepping into fiction. It was about 12 or 13 years ago. For a while I even forgot about it, but recently it came back to my memory and sparked my interest in the supernat...

The Grey Face by darkangel77

I have always been intrigued by the unknown since I was a little girl. Family members couldn't understand why and sometimes even thought I might be evil or possessed. My father is a Jehovah's Witness, and that religion didn't believe there were any spirits trapped here, that all it was is demons moc...

Ghostly Voices, Children Laughing by ghost_seeker

Sometimes when I hear the voices I'm always wondering, "Why is it in the unlikeliest locations?" I think this for a number of reasons. One, being that they are in new locations that should not have any paranormal things going on. Two, from my knowledge no one has died or had any grisly deaths there....

A Wooden Wagon In The Forest by ghost_seeker

This is a story my mother described to me just after the night it happened. This however, happened a couple years ago. So here it is. My family and I live in the northern part of New Mexico on a reservation. We lease a couple of cattle ranges and we were staying at one of them for a weekend. A brief...

The Man With The White Face by Reesybear93

My family has moved around a lot, because my father is in the military. Out of all the places that we have lived, this place was by far the worst. We moved into our house in February of 1998, we lived in a four bedroom house on a military base and all seemed well. A few months passed and I noticed s...

Four Ghosts, One House by KyleMM

This happened to my cousins and I maybe 7 years ago. One day after school we were playing outside as usual. My grandma lived on the side of a hill with some old ruined rock house on top. We were chasing her dog around when we all decided to climb the hill. Now we explored a lot but these houses look...

Predator Of My Nightmares by chunkeylumpkins

This story is more recent, maybe two three years ago. I had gotten super sick and had been going to the hospital several times from dehydration. Nothing had happened for a while and I figured that the thing that follows me around had gone away. But one day I was all by my self lying on the living ro...

First Contact by chunkeylumpkins

This all happened when I was about eight; my family had just moved into a new one story house. In my room there was this full length mirror in the closet that absolutely creeped me out! And my parents had set up my bed so that if I lay down I could see my reflection in it. So I pushed my hanging clo...

Wake Up Erica by Paratea23

Demonic Dreams by mamachong

I'm finally able to submit more of my stories. This story I believe is related to the haunted bank building.

Haunted Bank Building 2 by mamachong

I also had several friends come one night to record it. One of my friends had a camcorder. He had 2 batteries, one in the camcorder and the other in his pocket, both fully charged.

The Ghosts Of N.M.M.I. by Dudester

In the fall semester of 1976, I received a magazine for incoming cadets at New Mexico Military Institute. There was an article in the magazine boasting that the campus had as many as thirty eight ghosts on campus. It set a mind to wandering. How could a school have so many ghosts? What exactly happe...

Tolkas In The House by Dudester

I'd heard the stories when I was a kid, but it was a few years ago, when reading a Sylvia Browne book that I figured out what this was. Different from a ghost, a Tolkas is a ghost like presence made up of the psychic energy of the people in a certain place. Unlike a ghost, a Tolkas can physically hu...

Emotions by AllennellA

This story isn't about me, although I have gotten deeply involved. I have a friend who told me she had a ghost following her. It moved with her from house to house, whole cities even. Although I was at first convinced she just wanted attention, I thought there was no harm in playing along. I was op...

Shadow Man In Doorway by valdez85

I come from a very small town, Jal, NM, where my home is located kind of on the outskirts of town.

I have to e...

Pesky Ghost by mnypnny

Henry by CarlaB69

My husband who didn't believe in ghos...

The Dark One In New Mexico Hotel by SapphireRain

It was about the year 1989 and I and my then fiancé' had gone on a camping trip. Well, the winds were so bad they tore a hole in the tent and we had to go to a hotel.

One Summer Morning by wertona9

This is probably the third or fourth most vivid encounter I have had, even though it really should be number one, seeing as it is the most active. This only happened about two months ago. It was summertime, and I had nothing to do from when I woke up at 10:30 A.M., so I just sort of woke up, and...

Something In Our Old Apartment by Synndill

There Are Others In Our House by dimondeyes

We can hear someone or something calling our names, we can also hear other things like "Hey", "Baby". We also, at times, can hear like someone is breathing. For example we would be sitting in our den and we would hear someone behind us. However no one is there and we could hear someone breathe deepl...

Something In The Back Room by katiev6661

This happened when I was about 5 or 6. It happened in the back room of our old house. We used to use that room for storage, and it was partly my dads little gym.
