Military Housing by Nerd_Girl

We (husband, toddler, and I) are stationed at Fort Hood. We've been in this house for a little 2 years, and I (and I assume my son) have had constant experiences.

Unexplained - A Spooky Holiday by pal05

To begin with, I would say that I am a firm believer in the paranormal. However, I had never experienced anything of the sorts which I could very firmly classify as a paranormal experience.

Turning Locks And Opening Doors by kris0912

In my house there seems to be something obsessed with doors and locks. It all started on the back porch. The porch is enclosed and there are two doors that both lead outside.

Unexplained Growling by jcpk4

I have always felt sensitive to paranormal happenings, but oftentimes I only have certain feelings - whether that feeling is calm, or scared. The thing about these feelings is that they often don't fit in with the rest of my day or what is going on in my life. I wouldn't bother to post about these "...

In the summer of 1986, my Mother and I moved into an apartment in a low income complex.

At My Sister's Workplace by Akatsuki07

My family has a history of being sensitive of seeing or feeling ghost presence. Among us siblings, I'm the only one that is not that sensitive but I'm kind of thankful for that.

My Mother's House In Springville by shandi

Childhood Events by Kiego

Growing up in Corning, California, the Olive city, there wasn't really ever a lot that went on. The population was small, with only one movie theatre in town and no mall to speak of.

The Invisible Threat by KatieKoolEyes

Greetings, other ships on the sea that is the internet. I have been reading many stories on this site all weekend. I must admit, a couple have hit close to my own experiences from my own life.

The Demon In The House by cpachecoxo

Wow I haven't even thought about this in so long, but recent events triggered it and I needed to let it out. My fiancé doesn't believe in ghosts, demons and the paranormal. The only thing he knows is that they're all 'ghost stories' since nothing's happened to him. Mind you, since he's met me he's ...

Im Pretty Sure I Have One Or More Spirits by Dawnie

Me, being a VERY sceptic person...

Hidden Room by SmokenMirrors

In a past story I have briefly mentioned the house my grand-parents used to own. The House is a pre-war terrace in Birmingham.

The Closet Door by Butterfly_Kisses

My husband and I had just moved into a house that was right behind the house my parents lived in.

Resident Ghost by AToastToGhosts

I have a resident ghost named Frances. Evidently she's the original owner of my house, not that my house is that old -- it was built in 1956. Yet, I'm the seventh owner.

I have a rather odd experience to relate. In September of 2011, a friend of mine that had been living out of state for the past twelve years returned to New York.

A Haunted Hotel by Melime

In April last year I got a job as a hotel receptionist in a town not far from where I live. I started as extra and now I've worked my way up to being a full-time night receptionist.

Incidents In My House by Isabelle27

Our House Ghost by Marine

Cebu City in the Philippines has never been a hotbed for ghostly haunting and apparitions.

Of Wee Ghosties And A Haunted School by valkricry

Recently Oak Park Elementary celebrated its 120th year, which would have meant it was built around 1893. However, some suspect the school is even older since the existing records do not date farther back. Perhaps the anniversary is why this story feels the need to be told. Back in 1979, I was th...

My Experience At The Cemetery by GrimlinGod

I was walking in Decatur, Illinois, Greenwood Cemetery's path when I saw two figures which I could've sworn were two people smoking a cigarette and I was in need of one.
