Real Ghost Stories

Who Was 'that'? by blancdada

I have been reading stories here for a couple of months now, anonymously, but now I finally decided to post my personal experiences. It was really interesting to read other people's stories, but what really pushed me to post my story here is the community and members' responses. I hope someone can f...

Seeing Shadow People Or Angel Of Death by mariah2020

I am dyslexic. I may not see some errors, apologies. Where to begin! I have been seeing dark figures or "shadow people" for many years. It started, first of all, before someone passed away or after. I have moved from 3 homes and I have seen them in each one. Every home I move into has trouble...

My Husband And The Ghost? by BrendaDances

I am not sure how to explain this experience, or what do to about it all, but I really need help in stopping what ever is happening from destroying my marriage. I have gone over this story a couple of times and tried my best to remove anything that was too graphic because I want to be taken seriousl...

Eerie Wail In The Graveyard by BojanTheGoTFan84

From my late childhood years to my early young adult years I used to spend most mid-to-late summers in the weekend house for rest that my maternal grandparents used to own. Their house was in Fužine, a village in Gorski kotar, a mountainous region some half hour distance from Rijeka (by car or a si...

Daytime Dark Shadow by beautifulalabamadisaster

I have always been a believer of the supernatural, and I always enjoyed watching shows about people who have had an experience somehow. I had never had anything happen to me personally that I could say without a doubt, was supernatural. On my way to work one day I was listening to a radio talk sho...

Strange Occurrences At A Haunted Theatre by t_bev

Small town in Ohio. I began working for a local non-profit that was restoring an historic theater/cinema and all of these events took place there. I was not the only one to witness some of these events, but because the building was bought by a local church and donated to the non-profit; as well as f...

My Sister's House Is Haunted by Art3mis

My sister's house has always been creepy to me, and this is not the first strange or paranormal thing that has happened to me in her house. Many family members have heard footsteps on the stairs, had items disappear and reappear, heard things, and seen things. Most people in my family are firm belie...

The Little Girl At The School House by rickthomas

This account takes place in my hometown on the Tennessee/Kentucky border in February of 1991. I was a Junior in high school, and had a part-time job cleaning a small private elementary school and the adjacent gym on the weekends. The school building itself was a converted two story farmhouse, and th...

Ghost Spoke To My Mum by User3246

We've lived in this house for the past 20ish years, pretty much my whole life and it is a relatively old house. In its current form it was built in the 1940s after our town was destroyed by the war but previous to this there had been foundations of another home so it's more likely than not that some...

The Woman On The Bow by FarEndofSpectrum

Before this story begins, I want to put out that the supernatural element of the story is very limited and all the ways it can be something "mundane" are numerous. Also, some context is due. This story takes place during the May of 2015, in Ratargul, inside the Haor system of Sylhet, Bangladesh....

Help! This Spirit Won't Leave Me Alone! by msecrose

This story starts back in September of 2019. We randomly had an Ouija board downstairs in our basement and it had been down there for years even before I knew what it was. One day I got the idea to just see what would happen if I tried it but I got nothing. Then on another occasion after that I trie...

The Dog Man On The Porch by FarEndofSpectrum

Before the incident I should provide you with some context. I live in Bangladesh. I am an eighteen years old guy. I am also atheist/ agnostic. When this story took place, I was seven years old and in second grade. I lived with my father, mother and my sister. My father is a teacher of a cadet col...

Something In The Vicarage by Seekings

My father was an Anglican vicar, and at that time (early 1960s) clergy houses tended to be large, old, difficult to heat, quirky,characterful,inconvenient and often beautiful. The Vicarage we lived in at the time was all of the above, (except beautiful, although to me it was, and is... It's still th...

It Watches Them Every Day From The Upstairs Window by virulentpeach

On one of the main residential streets in my town, there is a burnt out home which suffered from a fire in June of 2019 which consisted of three "stacked" apartment units, one on each floor. No one knows how the fire started, but the home is beyond repair and is likely to be torn down in the next ye...

The New Bride by Rose97

Greetings everyone. So this is not my own story but of my father's and I'll write the story from his point of view. Here it goes. It was the month of March, with a beautiful weather in the day and a mesmerizing night sky at the night. I was a teenager back then who was a huge movie buff. In my...

Grandma Sees The Grim Reaper by DanielJZ

So I have posted a story here recently and I had another more recent one come up into my thoughts. My family seems to be sensitive to the paranormal/spiritual. I cannot say that we all believe but we have all had some kind of odd occurrence happen to us. The original super sensitive person was my gr...

Care Home Incident by Lorenzo

I did some work experience at a care home. I didn't think it was creepy at all. I thought it was a nice place and all the residents were very nice. There were three of us, but the other two hardly ever turned up. I'll call them X and Y. We had these little booklets to fill in, a sort of... Record o...

The "colored Man" by billyj157

I spent much of my childhood living between U.S. Army bases and Norristown Pennsylvania. It is actually a borough southeast of Philadelphia Pennsylvania. My mother had twelve children, I was number eight. The youngest, a girl was born in June 1970. My Father was reassigned to Germany in December 196...

A Picture From The Future by Limey

This is not a ghost story, but one that is impossible for me to explain. It started many years ago in London, England. It was a snapshot from a dream that I had as a child. Most people have little or no memory before the age of four, and I left London at the age of exactly eight and a half. So i...

An Apparition In The Bathroom by Cunobelinus83

A couple of months ago I submitted a story on this website regarding two strange experiences I had here in Beijing late in 2019. I have to stress that before these two incidents I have never had any paranormal experiences at all, and I had none since - that is until a fortnight ago. I have a gene...
