Mist-like Light by 0BrightPetals0

So, this story is set when I was about 7 or 8. My Grandmother, in Wales, used to live in an apartment. It was quite spacey and old-fashioned. Anyway, on one certain day, at our house in England, my parents decided to accept a job offer and travel to Greece. Of course, I wasn't allowed to go. And my ...

A Stranger In The Night? by lochness

I was around 7 years old when I had my first encounter with the paranormal. My father had just left home, and I was devastated, I was very close to him and believe it was the reason it all started. I was staying with my aunt for a while, along with my younger sister. It was a bungalow set in the ...

The Mud Man by stormangel

Thank you for reading my story, first off. I would like to share my very first two experiences. I was only a baby in a household who, as far as I know, never had any particular interest in the paranormal, they had far too many other problems. I make that point because I don't think I could have imag...

Has She Seen An Orb? by AhoyLorna

Today at school I was talking to two of my best friends, Sanna and Niamh about ghosts. Niamh dismissed it and said that ghosts didn't exist but my Sanna's head popped up (she'd been drawing) and she said very seriously, "Yes they do." She seemed to be really convinced on this so I asked her if she'd...

Very Real Dreams by believer008

Some things I've read (on this site) have shone a light onto the events I've experienced in the past and more recently. I thought I would share one of them today. So recently I read, that communications between spirits/entities and people can be easier through dreams, as our mind is easier to acc...

The Two Women by rachel15904

I was told about a year ago by my mother that when I was roughly 3 or 4, I had strange experiences with the paranormal. One autumn evening I went to bed and I told my mother the next morning that I saw two women in each corner of my room, I wasn't distressed or frightened. One of the women had re...

Shadow And The Ghoul by Preciouspip

This is my first story IT IS 100% TRUE! Warning: NOT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED! I remember being in bed at my mums house, and I saw a shadowy figure of my great grandy. I was very calm, and cool about it. My mum said must be seeing things, but... This is how I know! At my nans at night, I had ...

Woman In The Wardrobe by Diskonnekted-X

My very first experience with the paranormal was when I was round about 6 years old. It took place at my grans house in the East of Scotland, Fife, Buckhaven.

Demonic Haunting Mind Games by Rob27

Rob again, apologies for the delayed post, it's been a while. Things are still the same here at my end. This is just a brief update of what's been going on with me since I posted my last experience. Sounds crazy but I swear this 'thing' is in my head. A while ago I was sleeping on the sofa, I ...

Pinned Down In Bed by danigrl8484

This encounter happened in an old B&B in the Old Town section of Edinburgh, Scotland. I lived in Scotland, about an hour and a half north of Edinburgh, for about 3 1/2 years (Summer 07 to sometime in 2010). Once while living there my aunt came to visit and we thought it'd be fun to spend the weekend...

The Return To The Old Nick by Simplyghostnights

Prior to our return to Gainsborough Old Nick Theatre the Simply Ghost Nights team wondered if this lovely old building would provide as much paranormal activity as we had witnessed in our previous visits to this most haunted of buildings.

Haunting In A Women's Refuge by showgirls1980

First of all, let me tell you that before I had this experience, I was VERY sceptical. If someone had told me they'd seen a ghost or experienced paranormal activity, I would have laughed in their face! Until this happened to me. I had been in a womans refuge for about 6 months with my 7yr old Son ...

Have I Opened Myself Up To Something Spiritual? by LittleRock

I don't quite know what to call this submission because it is not a story as such, but more a collection of random events. I live in quite an old house (115 years old approx) and I suppose it is quite eerie. My parents bought it some 21 years ago shortly after the previous occupant, a lady called D...

Who Follows Me? by shellycrescent1

My mother and grandmother said I was a spooky child and from before I could speak it appeared I could see things or people others couldn't. I'd sit bolt up in bed as a toddler and appear to be trance like. One day around 5 years old I saw a woman who came into my bedroom and explained she missed ...

Hide And Seek Hauntings by EvilMadness

So it was a sunny day in August and Me, my little brother and our two cousins were playing hide and seek. Very not spooky right? This isn't the first time I've seen a ghost but that is different. Anyway, it was my turn to count so I picked a really obvious place so that I could see everything. So I ...

Haunted Toy Box by DansGS

I don't actually remember this story but I do remember the toy box and I know that it would not be a lie. This is my earliest experience with a ghost (I think I have had two others).

Am I Paranoid? by m-reilly

Let me start by telling you a bit about the following. I have no idea of the history of my house although it isn't over 100 years old. My family does not believe in ghosts and give me explanations for almost everything. I do accept most things would have an explanation, but it's just the mass amount...

What Could They Want? by CandiceSAPA

I have been getting touches all over my body for years now. One time in 2009 my body was completely stiff. I couldn't move at all, only my head. I could barely even open my eyes. My eyes were really heavy as if I had no power to open them when I pleased, but I was able to open them. Then I felt some...

Tired Sorrow by DeanJones

Over the past few weeks I have been finding it very difficult to get a good nights sleep, there is no paticular reason for this at all, I'm not stressed or under any pressure at work, infact I'd have to say this is one of the happier times in my life as my girlfriend and I are expecting twins in 2 m...

The Indian Girl by RosemaryKin97

This one is very weird and mysterious. It wasn't scary, but when it happened, I was very confused. I was at my grandmother's house when this happened, and we weren't doing much, just watching TV. I was just being lazy, laying across the sofa and I decided to go to sleep. The second that I closed...

Ghost In My Room? by DarkMystery

First I'd like to say if this isn't actually anything then I'm sorry but I just want to know because I'm not sure. It really freaks me out. The creepy things only started happening last year. I've always believed in ghosts and felt weird at times but nothing ever happened before. Firstly, it's ...

Suspected Incubus That Visits Me by LadyLynx

Hey everyone, I was hoping someone could shed some light on what has been happening to me.

It was definitely a man because I could hear him breathing very ...

Collection Of Events At My Old House by PerranDrew

First of all I'll set the scene. All of these events occured in Gulval, Cornwall, England near Penzance and in a flat where I lived which I believe to have once been a manor house of some sort due to the size and some research I have done in the past. The flat I lived in was (from the front) on the ...
