Horse Riding School Ghost by Artickpiggy

I always loved horses, I ride horses since I was six. I used to spend most of my summer holidays at the horse riding centre of my village (lost in the countryside) with two of my best friends at the time that rode horses too, Michela and Michael. Michael was the owner's nephew and he and his family ...

An Odd Happening In Florence, Italy by Ricko

In 2005 my oldest daughter was living in Florence while attending college at Kent State. She was there doing arts and fashion classes and lived there for about 6 months. My wife and I and my youngest daughter traveled to Florence to spend a couple of weeks with her and see the sights. It is quite po...

Vatican Ghost by milky

I had taken my first trip to Europe in the summer of 2017. It was fun but I always felt on edge. There was so much history to the places I went; I was a little dizzy with it all. The first place we went to was Rome, Italy. It's a trip that still haunts me. We had arrived the night before and my mot...

Forest Encounter by Artickpiggy

My grandparents used to rent a house in a little mountain village for three months in the summer and I used to go there every summer since I was 5 until I was 14 with my sister, which is 7 years older than me, and my cousin which is 3 years younger than me. I really liked my time there so when I gre...

What Was Laughing In The Room? by Artickpiggy

This is the very first paranormal fact that happened to me. I was 14 at the time and my friends and I were always attracted by the paranormal world. Back then, we would try to write down a Ouija board (the adults never wanted us to use one), and try to contact spirits but thank god it never worked o...

Stultus Est Sicut Stultus Facit by GoldenDragon1984

I was twelve when I first when to a trip with my father to Rome. I remember that my father was always telling me that this old city is full of ghost stories. I can't remember all but almost every spot we went, and he will tell us a ghost tale or a ghost rumor about that place. My father in a cafe lo...

Two Boyfriends by KristyLee04

This is my first post on this site, and I've also written it on my phone so I am hoping it makes sense! My boyfriend and I were traveling around Europe in 2010. We were staying in a hotel in Rome at the time this happened. It has played on my mind ever since. I woke up in the early hours of t...

The Ghost Cat by NeraDama

I've been around this site for a while, reading other people's stories, and I finally decided to share my own experience. I had rarely shared this story with others, because all I've got in answer were laughs and skeptical stares. It happened a lot of years ago, when I was between 7 and 10 years ...

Taps And Glares by DUDEIMTHEKINGS

2006, My first house. It was a beautiful blue house with lots of land surrounding it. There was nothing wrong with it, except the graveyard near by. Since my village is in Italy and older than America, some of the deaths here go back from a long time. 2010, I loved my house, I wanted to stay here...

Is There Something In My Room? by JustSomeGirl

Let me tell you some things before I start. I'm 18 and the paranormal experiences took place in this apartment where I moved with my family about 3 years ago. I still live here. When my family and I moved into this apartment, everything was fine. These things started happening about a year later ...

It Also Happened To Me by mimissa

I have been reading stories on this site and I read a recent one that explained how (she or he I can't remember) would see a big shadow and then it would disappear leaving the smell of cigarettes or smoke. Well something similar happened to me, my cousin and my boyfriend (they smelled the cigarettes...

Ele's House by mimissa

So this story happened maybe a few weeks ago. I went to my friend Mely's house and she took me to her cousins because I was dying to meet her because she too can see and hear spirits. So we were at her cousin Ele's house, we sat in the kitchen for a coffee and we started talking and she was telling ...

The Nights I Will Never Forget In Italy by mimissa

I've been reading a lot of stories these past few days (all very interesting) and finally I've decided to share one of mine. Before I go on telling my stories, I just want to say that I live in Italy (Siracusa). Since 464, there have been tombstones under half of the city until now and there are sti...

Frightened And Stressed by LadyLaide

I am new to this website and found it because I was looking up hauntings and I would like some advice on whether I have a ghost in my home or not... My boyfriend and I live in an old house in the historical centre of an old town in Sardinia. Everything was fine when we first moved in (I should po...

White Smoke In Darkness by Autumo

I guess I should start by saying that strange things have happened to me frequently ever since I was a child, but I always shrugged them off as coincidences or ignored them for the sake of my sanity. One incident, however, stands out to me among many because it was different from anything that I had...

Uncle Bob's Light by Fergie

I grew up as "Daddy's Girl"! I think, because I had no mother, my dad loved and cosseted me twice as much. I never lacked for anything, least of all, love! I grew up in a house full of adults; I was a rather precocious child. My dad worked hard, he worked as a shaft carpenter in the Kimberley dia...

The Tailor In The Attic by Vdubtype1

Sorry for this stories length, this happened last month a couple weeks before Christmas. I am also typing this from my iPhone, so please disregard minor misspellings. Thanks. I am stationed in Italy, and am renting a house from an old Italian gentleman. He speaks a jumbled bunch of English, and ...

A Haunting In The Old World by CityGal

This is a story I always tell people when asked if I ever had a paranormal experience. I will tell you the first part - about how it started, with my mom. First I need to clarify, my mom is sensitive. She does not see or hear spirits; it is more of a feeling thing. She always knows when something i...

Growling... Belial? by orthofro

I've been reading the stories on this site for quite some time and I finally decided to submit one of mine. I've always been interested in the paranormal, but started to truly believe after my mom's death, seven years ago but that's a different story. The particular occurrence that happened this yea...

Haunted in Florence by Oxolilcaraoxo

I'm currently studying abroad in Florence, Italy with some friends. We share an apartment together and from the start there have been lights flickering, random voices in our ears, etc. We've been here for over a week and last night one of the girls felt as if someone passed through her and a wind bl...

An Incarnation Of Evil by Carpediem

This story along with my other one, 'Prep School Ghost In Rome,' happened 25 years ago when I was living in Europe with my parents while my father was working with N.A.T.O. Although it was indeed a long time ago, and I was only 16 at the time, I can still remember every single detail as if it ha...

Prep School Ghost In Rome by Carpediem

This is not your average ghost tale as while it was happening I did not know that I was indeed talking to and taunting what turned out to be my proof of the afterlife. This is indeed a true story and I swear by it on the souls of all those that I love that have passed before me. It happened over 25 ...

Ghost On The Road by ghostseer

I was waiting for my driver to pick me up. Standing in the dark, alone-tired and grumpy, I kept glancing at my watch. Sarah was late...AGAIN! I knew she had a good excuse, but the problem was... She always had a good excuse. I imagined her making up something as she drove across the countryside. ...

The Angry Street Prostitute by ghostseer

Now, this was a first for me. I had been in Paris for a few weeks, and then it was off to Italy. I won't tell you the exact location. A few frightened priests asked me not to. They watch TV and they understand the power of the GHOST HUNTING community. They have been trying to rid the area of Pros...

Hotel Room Haunting by rxxxone

I was in Venice, Italy with my wife and some friends, we checked into this hotel, I forget the name because to be honest with you, I did not think I would ever tell this story, but due to this weekends encounter at Alcatraz, I must write. My wife and I enter the room and the room is completely red, ...

My Dog, an Old Friend by cozard271

A few years back, I had a wonderful pet dog. She was a black lab and a very good and loyal friend. If I was sad, she would lay next to me and comfort me. I never felt scared when she was around. Then, at the age of 14 (very old for a dog), she died. I was so lonely after that. I didn't quite kno...
