Growing Up With Ghosts 2 by Ibelieveinghosts

Hopefully you have read part 1 of this story because it explains about the house I grew up in. Many weird things happened in that house while we lived there, such as footsteps up in our attic late at night, whispering, disembodied voices, doors closing on their own. We never found out why all of the...

The Barn Ghost by mulder81

This is a real story told by a trusted friend at work. I do not have proof, but the story is just spooky. He knows this guy, and very much believes him. We will call him Jim and he has never been a believer in the paranormal, or anything of the unknown nature. He is a skeptic. My co-worker and I are...

Red Swirlies And More by IloveJesus365

I have had many sightings in various places during my 37 years. When I was 15 years old, I lived in a duplex in Lake Worth, FL with my family. I don't know the exact time, but I know that I woke up because I felt something or someone staring at me. I know this feeling; I always see something or s...

The Past Year by Sparkie

I haven't posted in about a year and in that time a lot of stuff has happened. Like just the other day my mom had friends over and they were upstairs. I guess it was about 9pm when something really strange happened. Blood started dripping from the ceiling and onto the bed. What makes this really odd...

The Lady At My Window by RJK9X

I was driving home from my grandmother's old house when I saw something in the distance, in the middle of the road. As I got closer, I realized it was a women dressed in all white. I never saw her face because my conscience was tugging at my soul telling me not to look at her. It was so surreal I fe...

Something In My House? by las_girl725

The house my family lives in now was built in the 1930's, and as far as we know, there was only one man that lived in it. I am 18 now, and for quite some time I have been convinced that our house has some sort of spirit in it. First off, when I was younger, about 10-11, my sister, who was about...

Growing Up With Ghosts by Ibelieveinghosts

For the first 10 years of my life, my family and I lived in a huge old house where many weird and unexplainable events took place. I can't fit them all into one story so I will be posting this in several parts so please bear with me! First I'll describe the house. It was in Illinois where I grew...

Duplex Lady by honey91

About two years ago my mom and I moved into cute little split level duplex. When we first looked at the house, I didn't feel a presence, but I didn't venture into the room that my mom was going to have, either. The day mom signed the papers; I was like "Yaaaaaaaaay! Finally a house without any annoy...

Ghost Wakes Us Up And Lie Next To Us by mnic6453

I am submitting this story just to gather as many opinions and suggestions as possible, especially from people who had the same experience or professionals in this field who have solutions. This happened to me once about 2 years ago and to my wife twice (once last year and once just the other day)...

Amethyst Can Help Sleep Paralysis by xxjessica182

I always fall asleep with my door shut every night. I've had sleep paralysis a lot of times, but the only thing I have ever been able to see was my room. It's always dream-like and it feels half real, half fantasy, maybe a few things here or there are different, but it's recognizably my room. Th...

Footsteps All The Time by kevinsolis777

When I was little (like 12) I used to hear footsteps on the ceiling above me at night. It only happened in my room. Some nights I would wake up to this very heavy pressure on top of me and I couldn't move. One night I woke up to see what looked like a white face staring at me from the side of my bed...

A Blue Dog? by neu

Now, since the last time I've submitted stories, I've still had episodes of sleep paralysis/hypnagogia. It's gotten a lot better though, I've managed to calm myself down just by taking deep breaths and thinking about how its all been explained by science, and that I'll be perfectly safe. I Hope that...

Howling Shadows by RubberBandBall

There are times in my life that I just get a feeling. I do not mean that I have premonitions or experiences I just mean to say that I have gut feelings. I'm sure that it is a universal thing; just imagine the feeling of falling on a roller coaster mixed with a car crash (that is the closet as I can ...

Dc's History by justin102798

I went to DC during the summer. While there, I went to the air and space museum. I took a picture of the Spirit of Texas and when I looked at the picture, it looked like there was a face in the window. It looked like a man with sandy blond hair and a scratched up face. I still look at the picture to...

The Thing In My Bedroom 2 by Sway

I posted a story on here a few days ago about an experience, one of many that I and others have had in the house I grew up in. I'd like to share another of those experiences and hopefully someone out there who knows more about the paranormal than I do and can shed a bit of light on what may be going...

House On Soapstone Road by dragonwalker

Three month after I turned 14, we moved into a house about fifteen minutes outside of Palmer - towards Sutton, as a lot of locals say. Not even a day after we fully moved in and spent our first night there odd things started happening. Our second morning, it was early around six or so on a Satur...

Weird Things At David's House by Wardo

I have been reading more stories and some recent accounts have jogged my memory to some other unexplainable events that took place in a house that one of my high school friend's lived in. Well, we were all in high school and David's aunt passed away and the family needed someone to stay in her ho...

My Ghost Dog Lady by Tharagus

Like the majority of America, my family of five used to have a dog. Last June I believe I felt our dog named Lady rub up against me in the night. I was just dozing of on the couch after staying up all night (it was about 3:00am) and I had a blanket on. As I started to drift off into sleep I felt...

My Grandpa's Ghost by excecil3

I will never forget the day my grandpa died. It was tragic, for everyone that knew him. It was six years later after the incident that I began to notice strange things. I was about ten; however everything remains in my mind clearly. I would be scared to go to bed at night, because there would be...

Knocking At The Door At My New Home by silvervette

I recently bought my first home, and live by myself. A little over three weeks ago, right after moving in, I had a friend spend the night to help with unpacking, etc. She was staying in the guest suite, which is on the opposite end of the house from where I was sleeping. It was Saturday morning, som...

Dogwood Ave. Apartments by dragonwalker

The end of June in 2008, my now ex-husband and I separated. For two weeks I stayed in the income based apartment of a friend and then moved into the same building that she lived in on Dogwood Avenue in Palmer. The first day I spent in my new home, arranging my few belongings, it was deathly quiet. I...

The Thing That Bumps Me In The Night by Tyffannie

Before I start my story I would like to give you all some background on myself with the paranormal. I have always been "attracted" you might say to ghost, sprits, angels, demons whatever you would like to call them. Growing up I have had MANY encounters. My mother whom was not a woman who thought th...

What Did My Child See? by Kandz0405

First I am pretty neutral when it comes to the paranormal. Before I moved to my house that I am in now I had these odd feelings of someone/something watching me and it made the hair on my neck stand. But that was when I was a teen so maybe 10 years ago and nothing sense. Today maybe two hours ag...

The White Spectre by Martin_92

This story did not actually happen to me, but it DID happen to a very good and very trustworthy friend of mine, who I will only refer to as Daniel to protect his identity. One night in the late fall, sometime between mid-November and late October (no this is not a Halloween haunting), Daniel and...

Hiding Under The Covers by Jasumi

An event occurred last year that I am still contemplating. I have always experienced some degree of paranormal activity (hearing voices, living in a haunted home, being touched by phantoms...), but this one was very different and almost surreal. It happened as I awoke one morning. Despite my suspic...

It All Started With My Nemo by honey91

My "Nemo" or who I used to call her "memo" was like another Grandmother figure in my life. We were very close. My Grandma on my dad's side told me that when I was a baby, Nemo would hold me close to her with our foreheads together and we would giggle simultaneously. She would giggle, then me, then t...

Extremely Cold Touch by charm

My story isn't really a spooky house ghost story or a haunting thing. I'm not even sure if it's a ghosts, but its there and I can't see it. The first time I experienced it, I was in my room trying to sleep. When I suddenly felt something extremely cold touch straight through my skin, it got harde...

Mysterious Entity by sunshyneforever

Over the years I have been tormented by an entity. I know that this is not a ghost. I am an empath; I know spirits of the human sorts and can tell the difference of something else. I have helped others with hauntings by spirits. But this entity of mine I cannot get rid of. This thing has tormente...

Daughters Imagination Or Real by concernedmom

Let me start by saying that my daughter and I have been recently (in the last year) watching all those "ghost" shows on television. About a month ago she told me on her way home from school she was looking out the window of her bus and she saw a woman and described her in detail. She said she just s...

When Family And Friends Stop For A Visit by 2112lady

I just wanted to share a few personal and non-personal experiences. A lot of people in my mother's family have some sort of "gift". My aunt used to see spirits around her all the time and my mother and other aunts have frequent prophetic dreams that eventually come true. Not me. I've always been ...

My Invisible Nightmare by meaghen

My story actually started a few years ago, but we didn't connect it to anything like a ghost. It was little thing's, like the back door opening, and shutting. We heard something with toenails going up the stairs. Then, late last year, about mid December, I started hearing knocking on my bedroom door...

My First Vision by honey91

My friend and I were talking a walk around the square, which is like a place with a bunch of little boutiques and shops in it. We passed an old antique store and I just had to go in. We were looking around at the dusty old things when I saw a little closet like room off to the side of the shop. I we...

The Ghost Lady by jackeline

In Houston, Texas I stay at my brother's house with my aunt Ceci, my cat Alfie, and a ghost lady. Before I moved to the house I learned of a tragic event that happened inside our home. A robbery took place and a lady was killed. The lady is physically gone, but her soul, spirit or ghost, however...

The Thing In My Bedroom by Sway

I have plenty of stories about things that happened to me in my mom's house before I moved out to Virginia. For some reason, these experiences have been on my mind quite a bit lately due to recent new events where I live now. I was browsing the internet and came across this site and thought it would...

The Keepers by bobogios

For years I have seen things that to me feel demonic. When I started going to church they stopped. Now, I have the same feelings as if they are my prison guards. They call themselves the keepers, there are four of them. I don't know what this means but if anyone does please let me know. I don't ha...

Phantom Cat by amacniel

I'm posting this story in hopes of finding anyone else that has had similar experiences or may know what it was. I have had several paranormal experiences in my lifetime, but this is a new one for me. I grew up with cats and one of my favourite things about them is when they climb on to your be...

Shadows by Xx-vicky-xX

Excuse me if this doesn't make sense at some points, I tend to babble with my words a lot. These things I've been seeing and hearing have been going on since I can remember nearly 7 years back (I'm 14 now) when we lived in our house in Colorado Springs, CO. There was one night I remember quiet ...

Saying My Name by karla_08

The past couple weeks or so I've had four people I know pass away. Death is a natural thing and I accept that. But, ever since my Grandmother passed away things in my dad's house have gotten more active. When we first moved in here at night I could hear a person walking through the house. They'd wal...

Floating Face by honey91

A couple of years ago, I was at my friend's newly built house. (This story happened in the same house as my story "breath on my neck and loud exhalation" happened in.) It was pretty late and us being the night owls we were, we were still awake. We had just come up from the basement from playing ...

Strange And Paranormal by skayee

On the night of Halloween my house burnt down, so my family and I moved in with my step-dads mom. The house we moved in was built in the early 70's. It had this haunting feel to it. There was one room no one ever would go in and it was the attic, it was refinished and everything. Living here some ve...

Jeremy by Rain101181

I like graveyards, during the day. At night, I won't go near them. One summer day, I was walking around the one down the street from where I live and I noticed a stone with pictures. I walked over and noticed one of the pictures had fallen down. I tried to stick it back in the ground but it was plas...

Cat Call by see27burn

My husband and I live in an apartment right now. The same apartment complex me, my mom and dad lived in when I was 3 [and I am 23]. So they're not brand new apartments. We have been living there for 5 months. Weird things started happening about a month ago. Just so you all know I am familiar with t...

The Silent Stalkers by Emily-TheParanormal

My name is Emily and I am from New Orleans. About 5 months ago, my husband and I had just settled into our new home. It wasn't until about one week later that I had started to sense unusual activity. I have experienced these unusual occurrences three times. The last occurrence was one 6 days ago. I...

Pictures Turned Face Down by Soup13

About 5 or 6 years ago, my fiancé (now husband) and I moved into this teeny tiny little apartment in a town called Sharpsburg, which is a part of the Pittsburgh area. We had only been living there for about a week when we had our first experience. When I arrived home from work one day, I noticed th...

Male Voice by _edana_

I used to hear a strangled muffled male voice when I lived with my parents. No matter how much I searched I couldn't find a source and when I tried contacting a spirit I never got a response. The first time I heard the voice (age 15) I had just walked out of my office and into my bedroom across...

A Dark Figure & The Unexplainable Whisper by ashkac11_

It was just like any other bland March night. I had just completed an essay for school, and began preparing for bed. The time was around 11:30 -11:40 give or take. I had crawled into my bed which faces the door; my parents had made it a rule to sleep with the door open. Just like any other teenager ...

Bright Purple Light by DaisyD

My sister has always had difficult pregnancies and she always ends up having miscarriages. So we were all excited when she was able to last 5 months being pregnant. We thought this baby would survive. Unfortunately, her pregnancy became very difficult and she gave birth to her son when she was only ...

An Electrifying Night Experience by GhostlyImage

It was a warm June night in l985 at my Old Victorian Home on Liberty Street. My wife and I were a sleep in our room, when something awoke me around midnight. As I sat up in bed, I looked to the ceiling at the right side of our bed. There was a large green glowing light, with like electricity energy ...

Using A Ouija At My Friend's 3 by seb94

I said I would update, and here it is. I dealt with the Ouija board according to one of the suggestions on my previous post, but I still feel things are getting slowly worse. I don't consider myself easily scared, and everybody always tells me how stubborn I am. Whatever was following me seems to st...

The Man In The Black Coat by Chris

I've never told a living soul about my paranormal experience for fear of ridicule and social rejection. I feel that now I am older and have the intelligence to thoroughly tell my story, I can let others know what happened. I've lived in this house with my great-grandparents for about fourteen years...
