Coming To Say Sorry? by Lakota73

In 1994 I had a whirlwind romance and we conceived a daughter. Like many whirlwind romances, we soon hit the reality ground hard, discovering we were not so suited afterall.

Miles Apart... Dying Friend Wanted To Say Goodbye by Lakota73

In 1987 my family and their friends holidayed in Spain. I wasn't the only teenager in the party and for the first few days of the two weeks there was plenty of fun and laughter.

Uncle Phillip was a wealthy kind hearted man but had a bad habit of cursing in every sentence. He was tall with a large afro and no matter how much he ate he always stayed slim.

The New Resident by matsaw

I have always been interested in the paranormal since I was a little fellow.

I think ...

Grandpa's Christmas Surprise by PD1981

She Lives On by Lethalintent

I've always been a lonely guy. No brothers or sisters, not that many friends, to be honest I prefer my own company. But you can only be alone for so long before depression and loneliness kicks in. This all started when I was 9 years old. My mother had lost her second child due to the baby (Who wa...

My Cousin's Spirit by Seeker1

I have had many paranormal experiences beginning around the age of 4. I chose to ignore them most of my life due to my religious upbringing.

Here When I'm Needed by notjustme

I've been reading stories on this site for a few months and finally decided to share my story. It's not scary but more comforting, well, for me anyways. It is still hard to talk about it.

Turn Off The Television by CronishaxGurl

A few key points before I begin. The TV in my room doesn't have a remote so to shut it off and change the volume etc. You have to do it manually at the TV, and the power button requires a lot of pressure to respond.

Is That You, Dad? by mazza123

This is just an experience that I want to share with you when I was younger. Ok, so when I was around five or six years old, my father was sent off to war. I never really saw him much.

News From The Clairvoyant by Unexplained

A little over ten years ago I lived in a maisonette with my ex-girlfriend (a visual artist), and her pet cat. My ex never talked about the supernatural back then.

Guardian Angel Experience by xnikkibobikkix

This paranormal experience was a very positive one unlike my last few stories.

Anyways, so my first paranormal experience ever wa...

A Bad Visit From My Great-grandmother by YoungBee

As a little child, when my great-grandmother (grandfather's mother) was alive, I used to be scared of her. Only reason I was scared of her was because she had these spots all over her skin.

Tsunami Victim Saying Her Goodbye by geetha50

Tissue warning to people like Miracles and Javelina. I think many people on this site could relate when I say that we try to suppress bad memories so we don't have to go through the pain those memories cause us. Then something happens and all those painful memories come rushing back. This is one ...

Great Grandpa's Passing by reddysteady

Let me start this post by saying that I have not experienced much "scary" paranormal activity, but that the majority of my experiences have been primarily uncanny, comforting, and even helpful, at times.

Shadow Stranger by StarGazer22

There is something in my room that likes to wake me up at night and mess with me. I fear that it may be some sort of entity that likes to take the form of my deceased mom. About six years ago I moved from the city of Marysville, Washington to the small town of Stanwood about 30 minutes away. My dad...

Mother's Final Goodbye? by TheWhisperSilence

This all started when I was 10-yearsold. We had just had a power outage, so the only electrical thing we had were some flashlights so we could see.

More Than A Wake by NATAROX101

It was a normal and warm day in May. Well, about as warm as it's going to get in Cleveland. I was 12 years old and I had heard the news a few days ago that my Aunt Kathy's sister, Karen, had died.

Comforting Last Words by SarasSister25

My sister Sara and I were always very close. Our relationship was in no way perfect, but still it was a closeness that I will never have with another living person.

My Uncle's Visit by SpiderZA

After reading through quite a few stories I have decided to submit mine.
