Dark Entities by DeathStarK

While my family and I try and find a research team or paranormal medium, this is what's been going on in our house. (Mind you when I was only 3 years old, I started saying what I thought were demons and what looked to be a werewolf creature. My mom had me blessed and they went away for a time.) T...

The Giggling Girls by Jb66

This is a personal experience that me and my family had in a hotel in Ohio. I was only about 5 years old at this time. When we first arrived at the hotel it seemed nice. It had a giant hallway, a large staircase, decent rooms as well as an indoor pool. I believe it was sometime in the afternoon when...

My 1st Experience by Raider143

I lived in this small hometown in northwestern New Mexico, where I lived in a house that I rented for a short time.

A Mother's Final Goodbye by Overlordundead

S o at first I'd like to say that this story is a little foggy to me so I don't have the detailed specifics of the story.

Antique Piano Finds A Forever Home by MrsRamsay

This story started as a reply to Phillip Kafka's recent post about "50 King Street." I realized it just got too lengthy for a reply, so decided to make it a story. It never occurred to me before that it was a "haunting" or anything paranormal, but maybe it is? PhillipKafka had talked about his ti...

Phone Call Voices by DeliverDawn

I would like to begin by saying that while everything that I heard and happened to me has taken place in Mississippi, my best friend is at the center of the story too, and he lives in Colorado. I'm choosing to name the location as MS because the story is coming from me. This friend of mine--we'll...

Demonic Voice? by wrh1969

When I first joined the Air Force in 1988, I was away from home and I got my first taste of freedom. I could do whatever I wanted. I didn't even talk to my parents that much either. So I partied a lot on the weekends. I really enjoyed the dorm parties. I was sleeping with a lot of girls too and I wa...

Strange Coincidence Or Something Else? by VeronicaMarie

In 2007 I was going through a very rough time, due to a severe anxiety disorder that I have.

I've always loved those little inexpensive brocade wallets and billfolds with t...

Ghost Stole My Bracelet by DragonLadyYT

We used to have a ghost. We banished it and unfortunately that was before I realized my bracelet, made of real turquoise from the Sleeping Beauty mines in California and set in sterling silver was missing.

Navy Blue Paint by creeps_peeps

It was the year 2014, and I was 11 years old. My family (my dad, stepmom, and three biological siblings and three step-siblings) had recently moved from Alaska to Washington State and moved into what we call the "Blue House" because it was painted a dark, navy blue. I don't remember when the first h...

Our Apartment by Katie212

When I was 15 years old, I experienced this and told anyone who was within five feet of me. Some people laughed it off as fatigue due to my extremely busy lifestyle; I was a gymnast, a dancer, and my life was filled with travel and sleep-away camp. Other people who did believe me were afraid to come...

50 King Street by phillipkafka

Some say that truth is stranger than fiction. Back in our early twenties, Jerry and I found a one-bedroom apartment in Manhattan's West Village. We had been friends for a number of years, and as aspiring actors could not afford to rent alone. We would be subleasing from an artist named Lee Gatch....

A Lucid Dream, Or A Spirit? by jadeeee

I'm not sure if this counts as a lucid dream or a real encounter with a spirit, but it has been bugging me ever since it happened and I'd like to share with other people who might've had a similar experience. I layed down for a quick nap while my boyfriend played video games a few feet away from ...

It has officially been 12 years since I posted last. Since then I have moved a handful of times, 4 additional cities, and even became a mother... And like the title says, it hasn't stopped.

A Haunted House In The Country by LFrog1386

This happened to me so long ago that any details might be fuzzy but it's to the best of my recollection.

After My Sister Passed by Suzy2

My sister passed about 25 years ago. She was 35 and had breast cancer. The last 5 days or so of her life, she started speaking to my grandmother who had passed about 10 years earlier.

The Daycare's Guardian Ghost by Sterben24

Our Strange House by DanielG

In my first post I briefly mentioned how my family has a history of weird happenings. When I was younger these were all confined to my father's side of the family.

The Battle To Come by CPTBlood

I like day trips, just getting in my mustang and driving. This weekend in December 2018 I decided I'm going to the Hofbrauhaus German Restaurant in Cleveland and since I'm going I might as well explore the local legend of the Rockefeller gravesite. In Lakewood Cemetery, Rockefeller is buried with ...

Last year around April or May I had walked to a local gas station in my town of St Joseph, Missouri on a street not too far from my small street.

The Highway by DanielG

My family has a history of weird happenings. My grandmother on my father's side is a firm believer in the Paranormal and has tried to impress the same belief on me.

Demons Attacking My Family by Fate_did_it_all

I am seeking help if there is any. My story is pretty long and messed up. It's probably all my fault. Thanks in advance.

A Party That Never Ends by cocoloco1234

I'm back after such a long absence. Hello everyone on YGS! It's been years!

This story is more just a small little thing that happened. ...

Early Morning Scare by ChristineA64

I Goggled to see if anyone had a the same experience as I just had. Found this site of Hauntings. It was January 17th, early morning like 2 or 3am, and my tv was on but the volume was way down, just a picture with little sound. It's very cold outside so I'm bundled with blankets in bed. It's my day ...

Exploding Glass by Solveig

In the seventies my parents decided to leave the rat race of the DC area and built a home in rural southern Pennsylvania. Generally, it was not a creepy place.

Catlike Humanoid by Solveig

I have always hoped that I might get a glimpse the others. Those beings from fable and fairy tales of my childhood. Call them fairies, pixies, fay, elves or whatever, they are around...

Ghostly Voices by adove

This story happened in Kentucky in 2017 and then again in 2019. My mother was ill for awhile and always said she never wanted to be placed in a old folks' home. She wanted a promise, so to make her feel better we said we wouldn't. But as it happens sometimes, her illness got worse we couldn't keep h...

Journey Of A Million Mothers by Elle310

Earth is a spiritual realm, and the membrane between planes of energy thin and permeable. Energy bodies move fluidly between worlds. I'm constructed in a way that I experience these energies through all of my senses. Clairvoyant, clairaudient, clairsentient. My experiences are rarely by choice. ...

Andrew Jackson's Hermitage Mansion by reality1000

During the 90's I think it was (I have been more than once), I and my wife visited Andrew Jackson's Nashville, TN home The Hermitage.

I Think We Saw A Ghost At The Amityville Haunted House by Jellyjally

I posted this somewhere else but thought I'd post it here too. I've wanted to tell other people about this but I feel like nobody will believe me, which is why I thought about sharing this here.

The Mountain by Lealeigh

This story might not be very frightening but it made a great impression upon me. I have lived most of my life in the State of Georgia but from 1993 to 1996 I lived with my father and my stepmother in Litchfield Park, Arizona. It may be worth noting that the reason for this was that there was...
