Waking Apparition Or Hypnopompic Hallucination? by Max_b

On the evening of Tuesday 11th September 2007, whilst living in a brand new 3rd floor flat, at Stockton-upon-Tees in the UK, I awoke in the dark in the middle of the night, to see a full colour, moving image of an unknown 45-55 y/o black male from the shoulders up. He wore a broad brimmed green h...

A Collection Of Events: Other Experiences by bloomfield19

So here is another story of a few experiences that link into another story that I submitted earlier on. The other story was mainly my own experiences and this is going to be what I have been personally told of other people's experiences with my dad's house and how this affected my view on the house....

Ghost In The Castle Toilet by Catttie

My name is Catherine, I live in a very old town in Northern Ireland by the name of Carrickfergus. When I was younger my school went on a visit to the Castle in the town, (it is known to be haunted) it is 800 years old. I was only about 7yrs old, I really needed the toilet and my teacher let me leave...

Haunted Care Home by rachelsmith

My mother works at this care home until present day. Three years ago my mother got me a job at this care home as I was only 18 and looking for a job. Only problem, it was working nights. There were 5 residents at the time I worked there. When I first stepped foot in the the building I sensed a very ...

The Cat by DanaAndersen

Over the last 4 years myself, my mother and father moved from England to Denmark and back again. The first place we moved into in Denmark was a large, open space flat on the fifth floor. It had a lot of large windows and due, to living in a large city, it was never really dark or shadowy. For the fi...

My Ouija Experiences by DanaAndersen

I tried a Ouija board for the first time around a month ago. First, I'll set the scene. Myself and several friends were at one of the friend's houses, in his living room as his parents were not home. I shall call these friends Troy, Markk, Kim, Toni, Alasdair and Joe. Markk bought out a cardboard Ou...

The Ghost Of Ickworth House by sydnisan

Ickworth House is a centuries manor house in Suffolk, England. I visited there with my parents the other day and I saw no ghosts at the house but I took many pictures (300) and at one point I thought to myself, "Wouldn't it be odd if I caught a ghost on camera?" It was just a fleeting thought but it...

Is Something Following Me? by ashley8508

Both of my parents were from very religious families, but in our house as a kid it really wasn't that religious. I don't know if paranormal things keep happening to me for a reason or if it is just something that happens to a lot of people and I shouldn't think its anything personal towards myself. ...

I Am Scared Something Is In My House by VIOLETSMUMMY1

I don't know what to do. No one will believe me because it has mostly happened at night when my fiance is asleep or when he is out and it is just me and my baby daughter. Please, I need advice. Me and my fiance have been in bed and I look over his shoulder and in the closet there was an old man ...

New House, Figures, Footsteps, Laughing, Cleaning Kitchen by CammiAlice

Despite the fact my parents know my situation (check my bio), we've recently moved house, and have been there for about a month now. It is 135-years-old and is right next to a graveyard. I have tried to look for any history but found none. This past week I have noticed some odd goings on. The fir...

The Girl Who Admired The Dress by CammiAlice

I remember it like it was yesterday. It was the day before my auntie's wedding and we were staying in my grandmother's old mansion. My cousin, who can be quite immature and silly at times said "this place is haunted!" I didn't believe her of course. Our family are strong believers of the paranormal ...

The Impossible Dream by Froobz

It's been a while since I last posted in here but I thought I'd share my strangest experience which happened to me in our previous house (where in my first story, my jewelry went missing). One night I had a very vivid dream. The dream was of a young girl in period dress running through a field, w...

My Shadowed Attacker by TheFatalSoul

Seeing as it won't allow me to start with the word hello, I won't. This is basically an update from my last story, "My letter to you", to get this, you pretty much have to read that first. It's just that nobody's paying attention and to be honest I'm getting too scared to sleep in my own room. I'd j...

Our Haunted Childhood Home by rebeccaannmarie

Firstly, I have been reading the stories on this website for many months now, and I am totally fascinated with all the stories and encounters on here. I've been toying with the idea of submitting the story of my childhood home for a while now, and after discussing with my youngest sister we have dec...

My Letter To You by TheFatalSoul

Everyone, I wrote this to my friend, as we both see many ghosts in my house and hers. I've wrote down a list of things that we've seen, so please read. We need help. What's been seen in my house and yours. Your House-What you've seen: 1. Red Faced Man-Appears in your room at night, you don'...

Very Tall Cloaked Black Figure by SeraphimShinobi

Fairly regularly (4 or 5 times a month), I suffer from sleep paralysis. This normally happens when I am very tired (through research I have found that it is when you are really tired that it is most likely to occur). In a normal episode of SP, I get the usual unable to move sensation and a pressure ...

The House Viewing by Cliney1212

My story dates back 8 years. I had just given birth to my son who is my second child. And as my family was growing, we were keeping an eye on the local property. In our local paper a bungalow was advertised for a very low price. It was just off a large roundabout on a very busy road so the location ...

A Collection Of Events During My Childhood by bloomfield19

So here are a collection of real experiences from what I can remember during my childhood. I grew up in a farmhouse in a small village called Leppington in North Yorkshire, England. Formerly a large detached house split into two separate semi detached houses, basically meaning we had neighbours ...

An Unexpected Visit by Carys_Groombridge

Before I start, in March 2006, my granddad committed suicide due to family issues and his name was John. I've always been weary of my grandma's house as strange occurrences have happened, for example my grandma once saw her late grandmother sitting on the end of her bed and every morning when she go...

My Dad's Workpace by unknown_madness

This story was told to my brother and I many years ago and I have just decided to post it. My Dad is a mechanic but not the stereotypical one you would imagine. He works 24hours all the time and is a profesional where his work is his passion. I will not give the location of his work or any similar ...

Omen Of Black Hooded Figure by ukghostwitness

As a child I grew up living one street up from my Best friend. Each night as I left his house I felt as if I was being watched leaving from a footpath a little way up the road. I used to run home as fast as I could as the feeling was very heavy. As an older person now (30 at the time of the stran...

Possible Haunting In Family Members' Home by Laney82

This is not a personal experience but that of my girlfriends cousin and his family who have given me permission to post details of strange incidents that have happened in their flat in the hope of getting some advice. (Lee's girlfriend posted some of this on the site back in November but I can'...

Mum's Invisible Friend by Seren

This story is another one that's more my Mum's experience than mine. My Mum has been a stay-at-home housewife since quitting her first and only job when I was born. At first she coped well with this, but around the time I turned 18 she was forced to give up her driving license (due to a huge decl...

Ghosts Of Snaresbrook by mtoper

My name is Mike. For the last few months I've been throwing myself into paranormal investigation in London and Essex, along with my friends Daniel and Ajay. We're doing this because we've always half-believed in ghosts and spirituality, but never made a proper study of them before. We're looking to ...

She Came Back To Reunite Our Family? by Seren

I've been reading this site for a while but have been hesitant to post my own experiences as writing has never been one of my talents. Please bear with me if things aren't well written. Late one night when I was in my early teens, my Mum hurried into my room, half asleep, crying and begging me to...

Cousin Andrew by lauracanflyy

These are events that my family have told me. I may retell them slightly wrong, but I can assure you that these happened. My cousin died about 7 years ago, when I was 7 years old from Prostate cancer. My family went to Dublin to spread his ashes. So, my auntie told me this. She has a bench ...

Supernatural School by Eya96

I didn't mention this event in my first post because I'd completely forgotten, which is strange considering this is the very incident that encouraged me to start posting about all the strange things that have happened. This happened sometime at the start of this year around February. My School is...

Scariest Sleep Paralysis Episode Ever by multinathan911

I recently learned about sleep paralysis a few weeks ago, until then I thought that I was being tormented by a ghost or a demon as the things that were happening could not be shrugged off as a dream. I have had a few episodes but none of them this realistic and scary which made me research into it. ...

Hangers Hill by Geezy

I live in a small town, south of England. It's the kind of town where everyone is close knit, they help others out and stories are often exchanged about the history of the town, the most well-known story is about The Heath. The Heath is a huge pond, surrounded by acres of grassland and hills; it...

The Man I Saw by MissEmoVampire

In my first previous story that I submitted, it was about a man who I saw at the top of my house stairs one night. This is now the next story encounter with the same man I saw. (I will not say any names which are non-spiritual as permission has not been given from people to use their names). It s...

Staircase Doll by WeirdnFreaky

This happened quite a while ago so bear in mind I would be young. Me and my brother used to share a room when we were little and what used to be the study is now my room. Me and my brother would share toys and play with them and sometimes read each other stories. One of my favourite toys from my ch...

Girl In The Old House by scarynfreaky

Firstly,I just want to say that this story I am about to write about is not a ghost I have encountered, but one my elder cousin, who I trust very much and would not lie about such things, experienced some time ago. The park by the bridge which was the location of the event with the 'Ghost car' I ...

The Ghastly Car by scarynfreaky

When I was younger, some years ago now, me and my dad were driving in our old Volvo down Darlaston Lane, near Bilston, and it was relatively late at night. The night was quite foggy, and we could just see abut 500 or so yards in the distance. We were approaching a bridge which crossed the canal near...

We Were Sure We Didn't Own Horses by WeirdnFreaky

It was just a normal day and I was in the kitchen making dinner. I should say that my house is quite old and I had lived in it all my life. As I was saying I was cutting up some food and I noticed the house had gone unusually silent, weirdly silent because I couldn't hear anything running, the was...

My Mom And Dads Friend by xbox360player

Before me and my sister were born my Mom and Dad had a friend called Paul who died 5 years before I was born. When I was 4 and my sister was 3, I woke up by seeing flashes and sounds above me. I looked at my dart board which is across my room and saw a black face - shaped ball drop into my floor and...

My Old Cat? by Ghosthorse123

Quite a while ago me and my family used to own a pretty little ginger cat, she was called Kitty and I had known her since I was born. She died a few years ago. After this I uncovered some old cat soft toys, there were 2 and one looked like my old black cat, Tinker (which I then named the toy) and th...

The Doll House Ghost by captain-alexandria

Ever since I was little I and my family would go and stay at my grandmothers for the weekend every other month. She lived in a little cottage in what seemed to be in the middle of no where. She had 2 spare bedrooms which I and my brother used, and mum and dad would sleep on the sofas. Anyway, in my ...

Holiday In Wales by TinyTinker

My parents, my brother, my husband, our two children and I were staying in a holiday cottage in North Wales - it was a 16th Century Drovers Inn that had been converted to a holiday let. We arrived and I took my then 14-month-old daughter upstairs to change her. The building looked very old and t...

Haunted Childhood Home by Forest23

As a child I experienced a lot of unexplainable stuff. The house I grew up in was a five bedroom detached house in a lovely neighbourhood with a big garden stretching back with a park on the opposite side. We were the first occupants of this house, but I must admit I am very happy to have moved on f...

Name Written In The Paint by Buttercup49

My Daughter is opening a nursery in Surrey and we have been busy painting and decorating for the last 3 months. When in the hall I always feel that someone is watching me from the top of the staircase and even though I have a T shirt, hoody, fleece and bodywarmer on I feel icy cold and it feels a...

Force Pressing Down Against My Waist by ZwyxiiPa

Best place to start would be Monday night. Me and a friend were home alone in my house and we decided to try summoning so we read up on some incantations and did what was required. Shortly after, my friend started to get rather spooked. I don't know if she was pretending or not as I didn't rea...

Everywhere In Everything by Dreamweaver

Both of my parents were gypsies. I grew up with a semi-nomadic life. My mum and dad believed in ghosts, I did not! Still I don't really know what to think! There are so many strange things I have witnessed in my life that I would love to find the answers, but scared of the truth I guess! Now I...

Terrifying Tour by 345assasin42

I had just come back from vacation in the UK and have two really interesting stories to share. I'll tell the second one in another story. Well to start it all off, me and a couple friends decided to go on vacation to the UK to get away from work and daily hardships. We decided to go and check out ...

Negative Spirit by bones

My trouble started about 4 years ago. I have lived in my home for a long time, since July '97 to be exact, and my home was a warm cozy place, a happy family life. However, as of four years ago things changed. I went from having a happy family to one that was dysfunctional. The first thing was jus...

Series Of Unexplained Incidents by JackalLantern

I've been reading accounts on this site for years and I've finally decided to share my story. Before I begin I would like to say that, unlike nearly every other person on this site, I have no 'sensitivity' of any kinds relating to ghosts or other spiritual energies. I do have a keen interest in the ...

Ghost Dog And Old Lady by PebblesnBammbamm

This is a compilation of my parents' experiences. They have each given me permission to share their stories with you. My mother has had many experiences. Her first experience was when she was about 13 or 14 years old. She lived in the house mentioned in "Black Figure Appears During Storms". For t...

Who Woke Me Up? by ghost-girl22

I've seen a few ghostly shapes, shadows ect but this is the first time I've experinced something paranoramal that's actually involved being touched. About 2 years ago I went to stay with my friend Kayleigh as she was getting married that week. I was to share a bedroom with Kayleigh's 3 year old dau...

The Old Lady In The Back Room by TheFatalSoul

As you probably already know, me and my family have had quite a few paranormal experiences. (Quite surprising really, considering that I'm only 13!) I have already told you about Tiger, so now it's time to tell you about the old lady in the back room of my auntie's house. My auntie used to live i...

The Crying Boy 2 by Tasuke

This is an update to my other ghost story, The Crying Boy. Please read it if you don't understand this story. Things have become A LOT more sinister than before. Not sinister like me being hurt, but instead just me, my little brother and my dog experiencing the paranormal. It has become apparent ...
