Crossing Over, A Families Experience by otteer

Reading another poster's experience about being with his father before he died made me reflect upon my own experience recently with my ex-husband's own passing. My ex came to live with my son and I when he was homeless and ill. He was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer soon after. I decided that even...

Another Series Of Events by 22aya

I don't know what to do, and am asking for any kind of advice or insight. I know this site was fairly welcoming and helpful in the past, though I don't regularly come on anymore.

Flying Ghost by TheCavalry

Just recently married, my wife and I were visiting my parents' house. It was around 9:30 pm in the fall so it was completely dark outside.

Haunted From The Day I Moved In by thebigb68

I, my wife, and stepdaughter moved into a small Colonial style home 7 years ago. I love the house. It was built in 1900 and it has a lot of character. The town we live in is rich in history.

My Mother's Ouija Board Experience by Afraidnolonger

I got the go-ahead from my mother to share her one and only Ouija board experience with the users of this site. It's not a terrifying or huge event, though I do think it's worth posting. Sorry it's a bit short but here it is. When my mother was around fifteen or sixteen, she went over to a frien...

Beyond The Veil by valkricry

About two months ago, I started a thread about visions/sensations during meditation on my story The Cat and the Angel (http://www.yourghoststories.com/real-ghost-story.php?story=20577). In a nutshell, I was looking for confirmation/reassurance and guidance on some twists that meditation had taken fo...

The Green Imp - A Demon Tale by Czech-Mate

Hallucinations, Coincidences Or Real Ghosts? by changerfett

I have always been interested in the paranormal and supernatural. When I read a ghost story, I can't take my eyes off until I have finished reading. But here are my experiences. But for some of them, I'm not sure if they are real. When I lived in my first house (I moved twice) I felt like I could...

The Myrtles Plantation: File #1 (the Electric Touch) by J_M_Shepard

This was one of my first investigations that I conducted at the Myrtles Plantation back in Fall of 2011.

Something Has Moved In by CountingCoups

It has been about a year since my last post. After I turned over my cemetery grounds keeping job, activity stopped. However, something has arrived uninvited in my house and I'm trying to figure if it came through a tv show or if my string of bad luck attracted it here. I'll begin my story 2 months...

Max Is Watching by mheitmeyer

For everyone that has had a pet at any part of their life, you know of that bond you get with them. Especially if it is/was a dog or cat. They come to be like another sibling almost.

The Person At The Other End Of The Room 3 by Haunteee

I just realized something that freaked me out. In my previous story I mentioned that my parents have felt a force push up from underneath their mattress.

3:00 A.m. Wake Up Call. What Could It Have Been? by jess_theturtle

So when I was 16 years old I was living with my father. We don't really have a good relationship so I would go to bed really early 8:00 pm at this time.

Woooweeeaaawwayyaaa by msforgetmenott

We inherited a sizable chunk of land in 1999 at my hometown, that had been part of my family's farm, where I grew up.

Off Guard by Entropy

Normal night in Fresno, CA. Dinner was great and television wrapped up a night's entertainment. After routine rituals, I crawled in bed and said my prayers (yep, I still say my prayers, even as a grown man). I drifted off to sleep.

Residual Haunting by dunsu47

In the spring of 1965 my family moved to a tract house in a subdivision that once had been part of an estate.

Shadow Cat In The Spare Room by H2olily

Of course I live in a nice, big, four-bedroom, two-story house near San Bernardino, CA.

I say unfortuna...

Pressure On Corner Of My Bed While Awake And Sleeping by bleachblonde45

While I was sleeping last night it felt as though someone or something sat on the foot of my bed. This has been going on for the last fifteen years or so.

Sneak-touch-whisper by Entropy

My wife, step-son and I moved into our new home in Clackamas, Oregon back in 2010. Typical, family excitement -- lot of painting and removing carpet. Neighbors were kind and all seemed great. Honestly, it was hard to think anything could go wrong. Soo, here's where it starts getting weird. On...

As I told y'all in my past story I seem to have a ghost type thing that has followed me since my childhood.

Living In The Spirit World by Nottheaverageteen3297

I'm 18 years old and well... I've lived with ghosts my whole life. Not the type of "ghosts" that haunt you for the rest of your life because you had made a horrible mistake.
