My Epiphany by Annabellee

In 1983 I began playing clarinet in my elementary school band. In the morning before classes we would meet in the band room. This room was located underneath the stage, and you had to walk across the gymnasium, then down a flight of stairs to get to the door. I purposely avoided being the first pe...

The Crawling Man by HappyMomOf3Girls3Boys

This is the scariest paranormal event that has happened to me. This still very much effects me to this day. This started when I was 14 years old and last until I was 17 years old. Without any rhyme or reason, I would often see this man crawling on the floor throughout my childhood home. The m...

My Ghost Family 3 by Haunted_cleaner

For almost 2 years Johnny lived with us. I am not saying that his presence was constant. Sometimes we would wonder where he went to as we wouldn't hear a peep. I would ask Stewie, "Where's Johnny?" Time after time he would run around the house searching and every time he would end up pawing at the d...

Ghost Girl In Living Room by JP1991

August 31, 2011, my grandfather passed away and we had to move into his house because we couldn't afford 2 house payments.

The New Resident by matsaw

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

I think ...

Breathing Sound In House by Chixlegs101

Tonight, as usual, I was having trouble sleeping. Mainly because most of my thoughts are morbid, and stressful. This morning, since I was already up, I decided to get on my CPU around 4 am.

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. In my household I was taught from the cradle that there was no such thing as ghosts. The spirit only went one of two places. But some things are so in your fac...

Great-grandfather's Visitation by JavaJenn

This experience happened when I was 8 years old and was my first experience with death, and I remember it like it was yesterday.

Goddard's Ghosts by susankingwriterx

I was a student in Goddard College's Creative Writing Program (Plainsfield, Vermont). I was working on an MFA and a novel.

My Husband... My Haunting by Executionista

Growing Up Haunted by MzsEl

I feel like this is more of a short paranormal memoir, as opposed to a "ghost story", as the occurrences have been constant throughout my life. Oh where to begin? The history/background of where my story occurs: The house where I spent the first part of my childhood was built around 1910. There ...

Demon In The Basement And A Phantom Car by shamby

The Cold Bedroom by H2olily

At the time this happened I didn't really perceive it as something paranormal. It was such a minor thing and it wasn't until afterwards that I realized it was kind of spooky and unusual.

The Doorknob Is Turning by LindaG

I posted a story a few days ago about the attic light in our home where I grew up. That was about 7 months before this happened.

The Strange Cat by ghostsrreal202

I first saw this cat when my friends and I where ghost searching with no results.

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. With it being summer I don't really have a balanced sleeping schedule, so I stay u...

A Night At Grandma's by LeafGirl

My name is Lexi and I am 16 years old. Ever since I was a child, a small trip to Grandma's always ended up in a night without sleep. Her house felt evil.

A Demon, A Poltergeist, Or Plain Nuttinesss? by galleygal

Some stories I've been reading here lately remind me of an incident experienced by my sister Marie* back when we were kids. There were various factors present that made it difficult then (and now) to figure out exactly what happened, and I wonder if you YGS kids want to give it a shot. Marie was ...

My Freaky Yet Cool Gift by Sarah92

Many people don't understand me at all. The thought of even posting this makes me somewhat go crazy, but I need to know if I'm alone or not. There have been times in my life where things have happened. Maybe it's just because I want to be close to the ones I've lost, but it seems to be way more than...
