This past weekend, I spent the weekend with my ex-mother-in-law, N, in her 140 year old house. I've been to this house many times and have never been afraid of anything except the basement. It gives me the creeps! Her husband, G, passed away suddenly last December 18th. She's been lonely and I ...

One More From Stoughton by waltrow1274

There was one more incident that happened, this occurred in the living room.

Tell Her...i'm Coming by maggirockz13

"Tell her I'm coming" he said. I was surrounded by darkness as I couldn't see who was telling me. "Tell who? And who are you" I asked. As he came near me, I saw who it was. "Tell her I'm coming" he said again. "Grandpa? How? But tell who?" I asked. "Your Grandma" he said and vanished. I woke up wit...

Quick Visit From My Deceased Grandmother by superclawsy

One of my very first experiences of the paranormal was when I was about 11-12 years old. Me and my cousin (his name is Adam, only a year older than me) had gained a lot of interest in the paranormal and decided it would be cool to try and talk to spirits, now before I get further into the story, I n...

Shadow Encounters by lilpeachyghost

This happened around 8 or so years ago as I was still in school or maybe I was in college, I'm not sure but anyway, it happened in the same house as I'm in today (the one I've lived in my whole life).

My grandmother was from Hawaii and was diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer (I cannot remember what type she had).

Talked To A Ghost? by migsly

This happened back in October of 1995. I went to a family reunion at a church with a cemetery. It has some of my ancestors buried in it. When I got there I didn't see anyone but an elderly lady walking through the tombstones toward the church. Her hair was up in a bun like old ladies used to wear an...

Alarm Bells In The Hospital by Kindly_refrain

This account, as my last one, involves strange goings on surrounding my mother. Some might consider the following as merely a coincidence but I find the odds of that being so, astonishingly small. While not strictly "ghostly" I believe that it was orchestrated by those not in the physical realm. ...

Nan. Is That You? by coolan

First of all I want to say I have been reading stories on this site for a long time. I've always been interested in the paranormal. In fact most of my family have.

Help Me Understand by Porsha

I'm an 18 year old female and I've "BEEN" seeing dead people! I honestly wish I could understand the real reason why this happens to me.

Who Is Always With Us? by maggirockz13

Totally Confused by annie16

Those of you that have read my other stories will know that I have only had those experiences. Until very recently. This next experience is far beyond anything I have experienced to date.

My Grandmother, or tutu as we say in Hawaii, was the center of our entire family. Around 50 close relatives, and 250 extended relatives to be exact.

My Blackberry And My Mom by Kindly_refrain

I am encouraged to submit my second ghost story to YGS, since people have been very kind regarding my first submission titled, "Eldon House Shoes".

The Two Man Band by Bringel

I'm sure everyone has had that random moment in time when you're driving along in the car or you're out at the store and a song comes on that reminds you of a loved one. It happens to me every so often. I find it's a nice time to reflect on memories of that person, whether they're still alive or dec...

These are a few things that have happened to my daughter. While I can't be 100 percent certain that these are paranormal, the timing of each of these is to coincidental. Our daughter turned 2 at start of the year. I wasn't ever home when these happened, so this is my husband telling me. First ...

Never Really Alone by Calamity

I have hesitated to write about this for a few reasons. One, it will be a long story, so I'll break it up into two parts. Two, it becomes intensely personal. Three, well you never know how things will be received. The part of Central Texas where all these encounters take place is close to the De...

The Truth Shall Set Us Free by Mhannerism

I had an episode of sleep paralysis last February 8; I discussed it with Mom about it when we were having lunch a day after that.

A friend of mine and many others passed away quite suddenly at the end of 2014. I was in my final year at university and was in the midst of dissertation research.
