Taps by Notsosweetheart96

I decided to create this account to share the little events that me and my mum experience in the house we live in. We moved here when I was 3 months, I'm now 18. However, I have just experienced the most annoying and frustrating thing. I suffer with insomnia and so it's not unusual for me to be ...

Our Negative And Positive Spirits 2 by Aggers

Here are some more experiences for you, and a photo we had taken which I promised people I would upload. First I'd like to mention one thing... You will probably fume at me and my family for this but yes, we did Ouija boards... All. The. Time. They weren't the proper ones though, we'd make them ...

Our Negative And Positive Spirits by Aggers

I just wanted to firstly say that our family has always had some sort of entity with us, whichever house we moved to. House number 1. - The dark entity's house. The earliest experience I had, which I unfortunately... Or probably fortunately cannot recall. My mother tells me this story with ab...

The Disappearing Address Book by WelshGirl

Ten years ago, my Stepmother was very ill with cancer and did not have much time left. But rather than allowing us as a family to sit and wallow about the 'whys' and 'what ifs', she encouraged us all to be open with our feelings and remember the holidays we'd had as children. I actually built up mor...

Mysteriously Locked Door by Noodles

Here is my story: I cannot be completely sure it is paranormal but it is definitely not explainable. I live in England and grew up in a little village called Nayland in Suffolk. Our house is a grade 2 listed building built in the early 15th century. The house has a friendly feel and my family and...

Hostel Ghosts by crowvxii

Firstly, sorry if this is a little bit scattered or confusing. I am still trying to get my head around the facts myself so I'll try my best. In June, my friends and I went on a trip to the coast, for four nights. We stayed in a room with 11 of us, in a hostel of sorts. My bed (a bunk bed) was pus...

Female Voice Calling Out In Early Morning by ShrimpLuke

Here is my attempt at telling my story it might not be the most interesting but it here it goes. It was Monday 18th August early morning. I went to my bed at 5 AM the morning this happened as I had a late night something I sometimes do when I am not working, so I walked up the stairs and went int...

Spirits Or Entities by ashleighjean

My story started approximately 3 years ago. I lived with friends in a shared house. One night I climbed into bed and turned the light off and lay down. As I pulled the cover up I could feel a sensation like somebody walking his fingers up the bed, slowly pressing in the mattress. I went cold and lay...

This experience happened mainly to my mother on a family holiday in 2007.

A Terrifying Visitor by thedivergentbosombuddies

I'm new to YGS so please don't judge if my story structure is a little weird. There was some weird stuff going on in my house today.

Weird Breathing Noise From Behind A Church by Bdog77777

Me and my friend like to walk around the village at night. We quite often walk to the village church and behind the church there is a loud noise that sounds like someone breathing through their nose. But it is way too loud to be a human. Also we have heard the noise several times on different occasi...

Haunted Mattress by Lesbro

I used to live in this flat with my mum and cats in England, Essex. Not really sure of the history of the flats or when they were built on with my story.

Hello Mary: Story Up Until Now by HauntedChildUK

A long time ago when I lived in my home town, and I was just a little toddler, I used to always sit in my parent's bedroom and laugh at a certain corner, the truth was: I was looking at my grandmother, but the problem was that my grandmother died years before my birth. I wasn't the only one who has ...

It Was On The Stairs by Miss-Echelon6277

When I was about 7 years old, my aunt and her partner were looking after a two floor apartment just above a shop in the town highstreet for six months while the owner's wife was away on a business trip and her husband was away doing something for the army (I never found out what). So when my aunt's ...

Unknown Smoke by MissKawaii83

I am writing this 'story' in the hope that the experienced users on here can shed some light on the matter for me. A few weeks ago, I was sat on a chair in the living room playing on my iPad. I suddenly saw what looked like thick grey smoke come out of my wrist (?!), rise up and disappear. It la...

Shadow Man Everywhere by kirstykarla

I am 16 years old and have been seeing a large and tall figure for many years now. He is rather slim and has no facial features. I can barely describe what he is wearing because he is so black and bold, I can't really tell. I have read other stories about shadow people having red eyes but I only see...

Shadow Figure - Friendly Ghost? by ashleylewisms

Back in around 2007/2008 I was round my brother's house sitting with my sister-in-law and my niece.

I was sitting facing the windows and the doorway leading to the rear garden and ke...

My brother, Matthew, was in the attic sorting out a bunch of Christmas decorations and stuff for my Mum. She was at the foot of the ladder on the landing, waiting for him to pass boxes down to her. Suddenly, there was a momentary flash of white light, and at the same time my brother screamed. He lea...

There's Something In The Attic by lanapoll96

Directly above my girlfriend's bed is an entrance to the loft (attic). It's a square-ish door that has a ladder attached to it when it opens, one that folds up neatly for storage. The other entrance is at the top of the stairs, but the stairs themselves are narrow and steep, and the landing at the t...

The Swinging Door by EmperorRI

When I was living in my old house in London with my mother, father and two sisters, I used to be frightened of our downstairs bathroom. I'll tell you why. It started off when I was around 8 years of age and I'd be downstairs on my own watching a movie while my mum would be in the kitchen (which is d...

Can Anyone Help Me? by CourtneyAshleigh

My name is Courtney, I am from the United Kingdom and I'm 16 years old. I have no idea how to start this off as I am new to this site. About 2 weeks ago, I was lying in bed around 3 - 4 o'clock in the morning (don't ask me why I was awake at the time, as I have no idea myself). Anyway, it felt as...

Is My Grandma There? by pet-butterfly

This is not really much of a big paranormal story that you can find on here. I am a slight believer of the paranormal. Here is my story. My Grandma died a few years ago in hospital and with her living so far away from me, I never got to say goodbye and it has stayed with me ever since, the though...

Ghostly Attack by SingingTomato

Last year, I was home alone with a friend, whom I will call S. We were going to go to meet some other friends so I went to get changed while she waited in the kitchen. Before I left, however, I offered her a can of pop and then went to change. I was about to join her again, after I was ready, whe...

The Man Sitting On My Bed by marie1984

Before I begin, there are a few things I'd like you to know. Firstly, I suffer bouts of depression and I also have manic episodes, where I'm very happy and feel on top of the world. What I'm getting at is that I'm very much aware of mental health issues. I take absolutely no medication whatsoever. I...

The Lady In Town by thyrampantpigeon

I think it's time to upload my second experience, so here goes it. If you read my previous story, I mentioned a second ghostly experience in the city of Glasgow, I highly recommend reading that one first as it gives a bit more of a prologue on me, where I live and my outlook on the paranormal and so...

Touching My Feet 2 by samtillie

A couple of years ago I posted a story about having sensations of something touching my feet. Now two years and this is still occurring. The reason why I am posting a sequel (haha), is because I have now felt something else. I have been wondering for a while now if the sensation I am feeling is m...

Girl With The Blonde Hair by ghostdancer

I Think I Saw My Granddad by somergraphics14

This story isn't as 'exciting' and 'scary' compared to some of the others I've read, but it's certainly one of my best paranormal experiences and it's something I've been wanting to share for a long time. Bear in mind, I'm not the most fabulous writer so please be kind. Back when I was 11 years ...

First Ever Paranormal Experience by Psstitsheragain

First of all, I'd like to start off by saying that this site is the best site ever and that it has given me the courage to publicize my experiences. I would have never been brave enough to tell someone about my paranormal experiences if it wasn't for so many people posting on here. I just want to pu...

My House Is Full Of Them by thehotcocoa

My name's Olivia and I'm only 13 years old. Of course it sounds stupid because most 13 year olds would lie about things like this to get attention. But this is real. More real then I want it to be. The things that have happened give me the shivers just by the thought of it. Lots of supernatural t...

Followed By A Poltergeist? I by clareyfairy

As a child I had a "friend" who would often come see me at my home and come with me to school. By friend I mean a ghost called Jennifer. When I told my Mum she didn't believe me, but I know she was most definitely real. When we moved into my childhood home all different things happened and I now ...

Shadow In Bedroom And Imaginary Friends by ThatCosplayGirl

I was hoping somebody could give me advice on this. When I was younger (around 7 years old) I had an imaginary friend that I had named "Ebony" - purely because this is what she wanted to be called, and not a name I came up with myself. I am sure if it was up to me, at that age, I would of named her ...

Strange Experience My Mum Had by bob_the_awesome

This is my second time writing on this site, but this isn't something that happened to me. After the feedback I got from my first story, and all the help I received, I think I should post this and see what the reactions are, to help my Mum work out what happened that night. I think this will be a pr...

This is a personal experience. I am now 17 years old, I was 12/13 at the time of the incident. I was sleeping in the spare bedroom as I couldn't sleep in my own bedroom due to the attic being built. Around 3am I heard a knock on the window. I ignored it thinking it was my imagination. Two minutes...

The Hand? by Ivytree

We moved into this house around 10 months ago, the house is old and was built around 1850. For the first five months nothing happened. Although, sometimes I would feel uneasy upstairs.

Newcut Road Hoodied Figure 'ghost' Sighting by amesmonde

In the early hours of New Years' Day 1996/1997, I had finished work in a nightclub and a friend of mine picked me up, probably around 2 a.m. Neither of us had been drinking and I should point out I reserve judgment on the paranormal. It was a crisp night and was lightly snowing on a bypass called Ne...

Boston Experience by Chalice84

Back in 2008, myself and my family took a trip to the states on holiday. After five days in New York we took the train to Boston and rented an apartment in an old brownstone building (probably one of the oldest in the city) near the park. The apartment itself was originally one big room but at some ...
