Sleep Paralysis And Hallucinations, Or Something Abnormal? by ALace227

When I was fifteen years old, I suffered an eating disorder and was terrorized by sleep paralysis.

One Night Incubus by Oblivia

Ever since I was about 11 years old I have been able to take control of my dreams and sometimes even leave my body altogether. Ever since then I have encountered entities both benign and not-so benign. Last month, however, my experience was very different from what I have ever experienced. I live...

The Stomping On The Roof by suneyedgirl

This is definitely not my first experience with things that can be described as "paranormal" or "unexplainable". However, this is probably one of my scariest experiences regarding "paranormal" activity. I had recently started dating my boyfriend, although we've been friends since we were childre...

Am I Being Haunted? by confused-31

I was looking around for ghost stories to see if anybody else was going through what I've been through since I was a little girl.

The Titanic Exhibit And The Broken Toy by PrettyInPain

I was visiting family in Missouri years ago, when I was still a teenager.

It was in town at the time, so my aunts, mom, and cousins headed in that direction. ...

Ghost Of Dead Husband by priestessblue

I rented a room from a woman in central Connecticut for a period of time. The house, which was built in the 30s, had a bad vibe that revealed itself over time.

Haunted Trailer In Louisiana by cherokeekydd

I have lived in the same trailer for the past 10 years just different areas in Louisiana. The first 5 years seemed to be going well.

Is Something There? by Wardo

Haunted Casino by generalchaos

Hello. I've been reading these stories for a while now, and I suppose it's time to share one of mine. This isn't my first experience, nor is it my most recent.

Instead I see a person walking on my private property. I call out "hey" this person stops, and slowly looks at me with this ...

Predator Of My Nightmares by chunkeylumpkins

This story is more recent, maybe two three years ago. I had gotten super sick and had been going to the hospital several times from dehydration. Nothing had happened for a while and I figured that the thing that follows me around had gone away. But one day I was all by my self lying on the living ro...

Frightening Shadow Man At My Bed by elise24

One night, a few weeks ago, I got up in the middle of the night (around 3 AM) to use the bathroom. Then I came back into my bedroom and shut the door (I usually keep the door open when I go to bed because I always get an eerie feeling in there at night, like I'm not alone). Since I was going to be g...

Can't Sleep At Night by CelticPlatero

Since I was a kid I have had what people have called "night terrors". I kept blankets rolled up under the edges of my bed to keep things from reaching out and grabbing me.

My Husband Might Have Invited An Incubus by little_ol_me

So this story begins about a month ago, I had been on the internet looking up something about the band Incubus when I came across a page about what a real Incubus is.

Being Touched 2 by luvparanormal

On my fist story "Being Touched" I had told the incident that my mom and aunt had while I was a kid. Well, not too long ago the same thing happened to me. I was in bed when I was suddenly awoken by the feeling of someone touching me. I opened my eyes to nothing there. I looked toward my husband's si...

This Scared Me Silly... Not Sure Why by alandhopewell

During the last eighteen months I lived at 1444 Broadway, all kinds of strange things happened, from the cold spot in the vacant apartment across the hall (if you stuck your hand in it, it felt ice-cold, although a thermometer registered no change in temperature) to the shadowy figure I'd seen walk ...

Strangeness by owlette

These are things that happened to me in my current home. I don't know how old my house is but I've been living here for 4 years now. It's a small duplex with a garage.

Unexplainable Ability by curious123

Is it possible that some people have an influence on their environment? Although most of my brushes with the paranormal made me assume that it was a separate entity that was haunting me, I've recently reconsidered this. To elaborate, one major event completely flipped my perception. One night, my...

Hospital Ghosts by InnerMomentas

I'm a Security Officer. However, I will not mention the company I work for. I don't feel it would be appropriate to do so. For the sake of the story though it was a hospital. That's all I can say about the facility I was assigned too on that peculiar night. As a Security Officer, I have no more a...

It's Just The House Settling Right! by JayAreGee

Currently, as I type this I am visiting family in the UK. The house we're in is an old converted barn, a "Tudor home" as it is called. My wife and I just remarked that for such an old place the house has a very "empty" feeling to it, unlike our house back in Texas, where in the dark you're always pl...

Our Haunting by turfster

It's been a while since I posted anything, but I wanted to add another story of the haunted house I live in now. Sorry but this is going to be kind of long. My wife and I moved in to this house in 2004, it was built in 1956 so it's older. When we moved in, my wife and I and her son were sitting do...

Goofy Ghost Chase by quixoticqt

Two years ago I used to live in an apartment in Kenai Alaska with my mother and kid. Kenai is known for having quite a bit of ghost activity especially in "old town Kenai."

Ghostly Lesson by Tempe_Toxic

A little lesson, it is kind of what I feel like my life has become. Almost like one of those History Channel specials, Histories Mysteries. Haunted History. I have a long history with the paranormal.

Black Shadow Looking Out Of The Window by bratslovergirl2011

The Black Butterfly by Taylor

Let me start off by saying that I did not feel threatened by the "butterfly" that I saw, and am posting this story because I wish to see if anyone has any ideas on what it could of been and if it was a spirit, why it would take said shape. About a month ago, I was just finishing up my nightly Sc...

The First Of Many by SoulSeeker

It was a clear moonlit night in Oahu Honolulu, HI in the year 1994. I was about 5yrs old and little did I know that this experience would be The First of Many.

Five Years ago, I had a near death experience. I lay on a landing bleeding from my skull for 2 1/2 hours.

The Disapproving Spirit by Cindi

I have lived in numberous homes throughout my life that were "haunted." Most of the time the spirits were harmless but when I moved into my first home away from my parents at the age of 20 I found one that was not as nice. In the fall of 1993 my best friend Amanda, her boyfriend, and I rented a m...

Face In The Curtains by Abshers

My family and I are Spiritual people that attend church weekly and try to live a good and honorable life. I consider myself somewhat of a skeptic on ghosts. That doesn't mean I don't believe in them, though. I've had an experience with something that defies explanation. It's taken me nearly 30 years...

Little Girl And The Face Of A Mom by maddie152

When I was 12 I went to my friends house to stay the night (for the 4th time in a row). We went outside to play.

A Dead Man Or The Old Hag by Pickle-D

After living with family for years, I finaly had a place of my own.

First Contact by chunkeylumpkins

This all happened when I was about eight; my family had just moved into a new one story house. In my room there was this full length mirror in the closet that absolutely creeped me out!

The Unseen by MandyyNicole

When my fiance and I first moved into the house we're living in now, I decided to center myself and meditate.

Scariest Time Of My Life by Ebbcakez

In January 2009, my parents' apartment was being renovated so they let us stay in an empty apartment two floors above us.

The Flashlight by TryToFigureItAllOut

I have always believed my deceased father has been popping in and out of my house to check up on me. There are multiple signs to show that it is him and no other spirit. And to test this out, I got out a small flashlight from my kitchen's drawer. If you've watched Ghost Hunters, you would know this ...

Haunting In A New House by GhostGirl7

I guess it all started about 9 months ago. My house seems to be haunted, but when I found out that my house was only twenty years old, I thought that it didn't seem probable that a traumatic death had taken place in it. Since, that's how a lot of hauntings go, right? But, I did read on this one webs...
