Weird Things Happening In Our Home by anjarey

So it's been a while since I submitted a story (10 yrs)! Well since my last story, my fiancée and I moved to a different house. The recurring dreams I had in my previous stories are gone! It's a house from the 50's and it's connected to other houses, so you can hear the neighbours sometimes. ...

Was This An Attack? by Azzopardi

Throughout the years I've had many encounters with spirits. Some of them were just greeting me and others were helping me with small or big things in life. However, this story is not about these friendly experiences. Because I'm looking for your opinion on something that happened to me. Before I...

Glowing Red Eyes Staring At Me by MG

When I was about 8 years old, somewhere around the 80s I experienced seeing 2 big red glowing almond shaped floating eyes staring at me, for a short moment right beside my bed.

Small Experience by Bewitching20

My house is very old, I'm talking 1930-ish and ever since I was little, I always had the feeling there was something in the basement.

Weird Incidents by LittleWriter

Sensitive For Paranormal Activity by Evelien2001

Breathing by Evelien2001

Woman In A Black Cloak by StoryGirl

10 years ago when I was eight years old. I told a friend of mine I could call ghost. She didn't believe me. So I called up to one. I did it just with my mind, I did not used an ouija board.

Our Family's Protector Or Something Else Entirely? by UpbeatTyler

After reading stories on this site for a long time I finally made an account for myself and submitted my own story and questions that have been bugging me. It's going to be a really long story, but it thinks it will be necessary for the background. First of all, I want to apologize in advance...

My Haunted Apartment by Roxje92

We lived in an apartment for one and a half years, and I am absolutely positive that place was haunted!

A Dark Figure In My Room by Chichi

I grew up in a small apartment as a child, where a lot of bizarre, scary things happened. Small objects moving around in broad daylight and I would hear voices or clicking sounds from time to time. My mother experienced the same things, so I know it wasn't my imagination. We got used to it after liv...

Visit From A Ghost Cat And My Great Grandmother by LittleWriter

A few months ago I had two different experiences within 24 hours. The first one on a Saturday evening, the second one on a Sunday morning.

Predicting Dreams by LittleWriter

Though I have never really seen or heard a ghost consciously, I think I might have had some ghostly experiences. Every once in a while I happen to dream strangely realistic, which you would probably consider to be quite normal. The strange part is that those dreams came true a number of times, but t...

Intro To My Ghost by Linn

I live in a haunted house and sometimes this works as a disadvantage. One night I wanted to sleep early as I had to be at school at 6:00 for a school trip.

Real Ghost Within A Scare Attraction by Distelvlinder

Have I Seen A Wormhole? by summerrain

My goal with this post is to find someone who has seen something similar, or may have an explanation. It's been a few years since it occurred, but never left my mind.

A Couple From The Past by iez

When driving from my house towards the railway station to pick up my boyfriend, I can choose several ways to go. One of those is driving along some industrial companies.

Prankster Ghost by Natalya

This will be my first time posting anything like this online.

Even though it may seem a bit trivial, in comparison to other experience...

My Cats by iez

To start with English is not my mother tongue, so please forgive my spelling or grammar mistakes. My now ex-husband had a cat when we started dating. An adorable fluffy cat named Blondie.

Evil Or Not? by Iridescent

Well, th...

Whenever I'm Alone by aishitaerux

It took me a long time to consider writing this, because people say I'm crazy, and it's impossible to happen. One night I was home alone. I was on skype with my best guy friend.

Evil Doppelganger 2 by HelenaSophia

I was shocked what the friend of the family told me. There was no way I would call him names or what so ever. I asked him what time it happened. He told me it was after midnight.

Evil Doppelganger by HelenaSophia

My story starts about 5 years ago, at school. I was thirteen years old and let's say I was not a brave girl. I used to change my grades, get in fights with teachers and cut classes.

The Hooded Joker by gaarvaag

Cat As Protection by TheOneAndOnly

This even took place a few years ago. My brother was on the beach with my cousin and a couple of friends after they had been drinking.

I decided to post my ghost experiences. It was long ago, when I was about 4/5 years old. The first is about my teddy bear. I woke up in the morning. I was searching for my teddy bear but I lost it. A normal reaction is to look under the bed. So I did. My teddy bear was under my bed. Against the w...

Is Something In Our House? 2 by leentjehk

Grandpa's Falling Star by dphoek

The Invisible Ghost Party by dphoek

My story dates back to when I was about 13 years old. That would be about 14 years ago. I was staying with my aunt and uncle in a town 12 kilometres from my hometown.

The Switcher by Laura

This is actually a pretty positive story. It's about the 'entity' (or whatever it may be) that has been in our house for quite a while now. It seems to prefer me to my mum and dad, as mum never notices anything of him, and dad only once in a while. I, however, have an accident about every week. I...

Whistler by Ohiowatha

Let me start by saying I do NOT believe in "ghosts..." I will concede that the Earth is a diverse and mysterious place and we do not currently possess all the science necessary to understand much of it. Consider briefly how far we have come in the last century alone, how many of our misunderstanding...
