Is It My Imagination Or Am I Hearing And Seeing Ghosts? by anjarey

Home by spookyonfire

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.

Neighbours by katzifilth
