The Ghost Who We Upset by Oddityuniversal

We had heard about a widow that was seriously considering selling her house in this small community one hundred miles a...

Dead Man In Brown Old Suit by Rocco1

It was a little after midnight when I fell asleep. I was dreaming I was at the cemetery. It was dark, all I wanted to do was leave and something or someone was not letting me go. The more I ran the longer the cemetery got until something caught my eye, I stopped and saw people digging up a grave. My...

The Winged Man Behind The Blackberry Bushes by BrokenDreamer

So, this is going to sound totally crazy, but this still haunts me to this day, and I just had to share. Because of the events that I'm about to share, my parents sold our house and moved us into the city, and we were never allowed outside after dark. I was about 6 when my family moved into this ...

It Pushed Me In The Shower by PenOrSaber

I was about 6 years old when this happened to me. Some things may seem confusing, such as why my parents won't believe me now, when one of them was there, but there is a logical explanation that I know that I don't feel comfortable sharing. This is definitely not a dream I had, because I clearly r...

Michigan's Haunted Ice Cream Truck by carcinoKat

My grandma owns a cabin on a lake in Northern Michigan that I visit every year with all my cousins. There are eight other houses in our community and each one has been in that family for generations. Long story short, the other kids from the other eight hoses have been my best friends since I was bo...

Big Noise In Scarborough by Squeez-A-Snak

This story took place in Scarborough, a part of Toronto, in the mid-1990s. We lived in a storey-and-a-half house that backed on to a cemetery. I'm not suggesting that's relevant. It's just a fact. The house was built around 1949. This happened when we're doing renovations on the second floor ...

Shadow Dog With Red Eyes by ketchup65625

My whole life I've loved scary movies and I have a brother a few years older than me, so its safe to say I was watching them at WAY too young an age. Combined with the fact that I had a very over active imagination, I was scared of everything. The grudge was hiding in my closet, the clown from IT wa...

The Stranger N The Shower by Spoopy_storee

One time, when I was like, ten, I was trying to go to sleep. I had just come home from an Iron Maiden (A great heavy metal band, you should check it out) concert, so it was like, 12:30 at night. So I'm trying to sleep, and I am counting the time to pass it. So then, it's like, 1:33 before I know it,...

My Message For An Inmate by Oddityuniversal

I know I am a different type of human being than most. What happens to me is very unusual and why I am unusual is something that I have no noticeable understanding for. I just connect to a world which others never encounter. As I have said in my last story; there is no human that can say he/she has ...

My Unknown Visitor by dowdyfamily1917

I don't know if this would qualify as a true ghost story, but it certainly gave me pause. I lost my daughter back in 2004. Understandably it was unexpected and put me into a state of shell shock. I took to going to the cemetery and would just sit by her gravesite, sometimes crying uncontrollably. I ...

Stranger In The Campsite by DreamBird

In May of this year I lost my partner to a horrible accident while camping. His gun went off and accidentally shot him while we were sleeping. It was the worst day of my life. Friends have asked how I could stand to stay in the camper after what happened. My answer is that it was always meant as a p...

A Ghost In A Hurry by Manafon1

I have been meaning to write about the following incidents for several years, but for one reason or another, kept putting it off. This took place in (I believe) 2018. As part of my job in pet care, I regularly spend long periods of time at customer's houses when they are out of town. This particular...

Possible Demon by amon

It's been about 30 years ago, when I was 13, but I remember this story like it was yesterday. I was a somewhat rebellious teenager and had always been interested in the supernatural. In addition to doing "typical" rebellious teenage things like sneaking out, skipping class, etc I also started listen...

Angel, Or Something Else? by DreamBird

Back in the early 1990s angels were all the rage. You couldn't go into a store without finding a stand on the counter with guardian angel pins. Everyone wore them on their jackets. In fact, I still have one attached to an old sweater. At the time, there were many books out about angels and some of t...

1750s Horror Home In Historic Massachusetts 2 by virulentpeach

Several years ago, I had posted an account of my experiences in my stepbrother's childhood home, titled similarly to this one. My stepbrother is visiting for the holidays and it led us to recount our experiences in this home. I also found photos of the inside of the home, which I can share if anyone...

Another Hitchhiker Haunting At Wee Hours by rahul_shelar16

It was a fairly cold early December morning. I woke up dragging myself from my bed not wanting to go to work but having to go anyway. Sometimes you don't feel like doing it but have to do it. Since my last encounter, it has become a little ritual for my mother to apply holy ash on my forehead every ...

Foreign Language In The Night by Pelatiah

Have any of you ever dreamed in a foreign language? Or gotten short messages that way? Today, while looking in my i-phone notes for the password to my bank -- I can NEVER remember all these passwords -- I ran across something I'd written there in the middle of the night weeks ago with only a vag...

Woman And Horse Drawn Carriage by Sjn85

This happened in Scotland, Drummore on the B7065, New Years Eve 2014. Four of us, my best mate and our now ex girlfriends, stayed in a cottage for new year. New Year's Eve came around and we got very drunk and a bit high and at one point I mistakenly had Codeine instead of paracetamol. This conco...

In The Haunted Forest, A Demonic Growl by Dimitry02

I am Dimitry, and I would like to share my story with you. When I was 3 or 4 and sitting between my uncles on a sofa, there were 30 people at a party in the basement, and I saw through a small window that an axe was chopping wood in my garden. There was just an axe, no nothing, except just one big...

A Samaritan From The Other Side by nacpat88

Hey everyone. This incident happened to my family. Not sure if we can call it paranormal. It was in year 1987 at Yadgir in Karnataka. While I was part of the incident I was too young to remember. My mother narrated the incidents when I was older. The temple of Lord Malhari (an incarnation of Lord S...

Watchman by The_Dark_Soul

In the late 1980s, our locality had a thin, but very brave watchman. He and his brother would watch the security of our houses at night. They both were honest to the core and bravest of the brave. Everyone in the locality loved them, especially that watchman. Although there were no such things a...

The Divine Being by dazybloop

'What just happened?' these were the words I articulated when I happened to experience a moment of blissful air passing by, having chills all over my body. To start with, I go to college and as a student, I go to tuition after school most of the days of the week which sometimes causes me to retur...

7 Times Pull My Feet, Still Happening Today by x21bafraid

I will make my story short so you are not reading all day. My brother passed away in July 2020. After he passed away, say about a month later I was visited in my dream by what appeared to be him. He said, "Bruce come see where I am at, its a great place", and started to pull my feet. I said, "...

The Place Where The Bad Spirits Dwell by AussieRedDog

I got lucky for I scored a pretty damned good job on a remote cattle station in Central Australia and when I say remote, holy crap I really mean REMOTE. Fair dinkum, it takes a day and half just to get the mail and a two-day drive into town. That's how far I was living. Okay, the cattle station. It'...

Creepy New Apartment by Tagba

I need some advice. My family and I moved into this apartment in November last year. Since the first night, there was something that I kept seeing at one of my bedroom windows. It was like a very black shadow that kept moving. I checked and couldn't see anything outside nor inside that could cause i...

Behind My Screen Name by Tweed

This is about an entity I've come to think of as Tweed. Because the first time I saw him he was wearing a tweed jacket, and it changed something in me. Sometimes hauntings come from a location, sometimes an object or sometimes a person. I think Tweed might have come from the location. In the mid ...

Paranormal Activity In School by FearMeNot3000

Hi, I'm a 17-year-old senior high school student who lives in the Province of Leyte, Philippines. When our teacher dismissed our class at 5 p.m., I went with a few of my classmates to the school gymnasium to practice for our class presentation. It was quite dark in there, so we asked the security to...

Ghost With A Mental Illness by Tweed

Over the years reading stuff on YGS I've found some hauntings so bizarre for the people experiencing them. But if viewed through the perspective of a ghost who lived with a mental illness could follow some logic. Obviously not all hauntings can be, shouldn't be, explained away by a mental illness. I...

A Scary Night In Lonavala by Bengali9899

*********DISCLAIMER********** Dear Readers This a Story from 2005. When I visited Lonvala for a office Conference from Kolkata FROM HERE STARTS THE STORY. It was a silent night in Lonavala, and I found myself walking alone on the deserted streets of the small hill station because it was a w...

In Spirit by GingerRead

After my great grandmother immigrated to Canada in 1929 with her new husband, her father decided to remain in England for the remainder of his years.

The Friendly One by ravenn

I have always encountered things that are out of this world. From black silhouettes lurking in the dark to clear apparitions and sleep paralysis,I've encountered a lot of things. I always try to find logical explanations before believing that what I encounter is paranormal, but there are some th...

A Premonition And His Voice by DreamBird

Almost a year ago I woke from a strange dream. I dreamt that my partner's dresser was missing from our bedroom and I was staring at an empty space. I awoke with a very uncomfortable feeling and tried my best to rationalize the dream as being more related to the fact we had new bedroom furniture on l...

Small Room by XKY_LARQ

From 2017 to early 2018, I was living at my aunt's house. Before I begin, they've been living in that house for 10 years, if I'm not mistaken. And my grandma told us before that something was living in that very house before my aunt's family. She said that after the blessing of the house, she used t...

A Nightmare And A Farewell by lady-glow

SV became part of my extended family after marrying my second cousin RM. I was in my awkward early teenage years and didn't care for him, specially since my relatives closer to him described SV as a snobbish and uppish person. For these reasons, my interactions with him were reduced to the most basi...

Love You Boy by Tweed

My cat and best bud Leo passed away on the 1st of May. Leo's history is a bit sketchy. He came to us as an older stray in about 2018. Had signs of abuse, both behaviourally and physically. He'd been neutered but no microchip, which is very odd in these modern times especially for a purebred. Long...

Pearl Mystery by Tweed

After almost thirty years today I just might have worked something out. When I was about ten my aunty F (maternal uncle's wife) gave me some knickknacks for Christmas. Aunty F is into drama and theatre. When I was growing up she would often give me her old costume jewelry, which I loved. That ye...

Meditation Encounter by Spirit2022

I'm not sure how to start this really. But here goes... A little back history for this experience. My mother's upbringing was quite tumultuous. Very chaotic, abusive etc. She brought that with her as she lived. She always had a dark cloud just lingering above her, and she never knew quite how...

Ironing Board & Drowning by valkricry

I'm going to tell of two separate recent incidents that I don't believe to be related. The first is the case of the disappearing ironing board. The board itself is rather unremarkable; an old table top version, roughly 3 feet long and 1.5 feet wide, constructed of metal. I've had it roughly 18 ye...

Native Spirits? by blosomes

Thus is not a scary or spooky story, but I thought maybe I can share this here to let you all think what this could be.

How Do I Get My Normal Life Back? by MPS

This happened to me when I used to live in Varanasi. As I had mentioned in my previous posts I live with my husband and son.
