U F Orange by CantunSEEit74

Room 113 by CantunSEEit74

We were watching the news one night and they were showing the Twin Falls all lit up with changing lights in Twin Falls Idaho and we decided to go.

It's The Little Things by applerose1964

We moved into this trailer almost 10 years ago and while we have not experienced a huge spook, we have had a little bite here and there. The first few months of living in the trailer were the norm. One day, I was extremely tired and decided to go lay across the bed. I had been having an uneasy feeli...

Phantom House Workers by DandK

Over the past few years I haven't experienced anything other than the usual knocking sounds and shadows... Fairly normal stuff here that I've gotten used to.

Mouse Apparition Pushing A Protective Shield by CantunSEEit

This story is from our current home that we purchased September 2020. This home was built in the early 1990s; it's partially remodeled.

Where Time Stood Still by Dar77

Let me begin by giving you a picturesque vision of the house where it seemed as though time had stood still. The year was 2005, and we had found a very charming older house in the historic part of downtown Pocatello, Idaho. I was really drawn to this place because of it's 1940's - 1950's feel. I...

The year was 1996 and I was pregnant with my first child, my ex husband and I had been living with his parents far too long and with a baby on the way we knew we simply had to get a place of our own. It had seemed that with the monthly income we made...

Creepy Floaty Faced Thing by BettinaMarie

This is another incident where I am reaching out in trust to my fellow YGS readers for your insight or speculation as to what in actual heck happened. Likewise, it probably is not scary to read, but it was bizarre and frightening when it happened. I have shared one other incident, which happened her...

Jensen Street by Dar77

The house we raised our kids in was built in 1907 and so I'm sure it had a rich history. But it's old charm is what drew us to it in the first place. We knew we were not alone after one of our first nights in the house. Sitting at the breakfast table, the kids asked us why were were running up an...

Busted Headstone by Dar77

Most of my life I have experienced a lot of paranormal activity, just small little things that you notice but just accept. Because we do after all have to coexist with one another. However there are 5 particular incidents that took place, that I personally feel are note worthy. This is my # 4. Th...

Watching? by muzikman

My wife and I like to explore old abandon properties as a sort of hobby on the weekends. One weekend we drove by an old house that looked abandoned and it wasn't posted to keep out and nothing was locked up like the gate or barn that was adjacent of this old house. There were old farm implements a...

Weird As Heck Visitation? by BettinaMarie

Back in the day, my two oldest brothers and I rented a flat in Boise that was the top floor of an older house, above the neighbor, Laney.

Shadow Figure Running Away When Light Turned On by DandK

A few nights ago, I had a scared feeling in my bedroom that made me feel like I needed to immediately turn on the bedside light.

Frantic Knocking On Ceiling by DandK

Several years ago during the week or so after my husband died, I had something strange happen. I lived alone in our house. One evening, I was in bed, crying again, and I heard light knocking on the ceiling outside the bedroom. I ignored it, thinking it was just strange house noises. I noticed it on ...

Creepy Window Experience by Scared2Death12

I have a fear of mirrors and windows. Mostly windows, because after this experience, it still leaves me shaken up. It almost seems like it could be a creepy pasta. But I am not making this up. Every word of it is true. Yet I can't even explain why it ever happened to me in the first place. Ever sinc...

Am I Possessed By A Demon Or Some Other Supernatural Entity? by TheBakedPotato

For the past year or so I haven't quite felt like my usual self, I used to bathe daily, I used to put on my seat belt all the time, I used to be happy and easy going, and I used to go to bed regularly, and I used to be fairly weak. Now I cringe at the thought of a shower, I don't feel the need for a...

Events Happening In My House - by DandK

Over the past few months, there has been an increase in noticeable activity at my house (large lot, lot's of room between neighbors).

Hooded Shadow Person by DandK

Three nights ago I was sleeping on my left side, with my back to the bedroom door, when I was awakened by someone shaking my right shoulder to try and wake me up.

Her oldest child died at the age of 4, when he fell into a canal. She and her husband were devastated, and spent ...

The Gold Mirror by bone_rose

This is my personal account. One of many but this one has always bothered me. When I was in my teens, about 18, I had a gold oval mirror in my bedroom (I'm 23 now). It wasn't anything to special, it was a plastic frame and about 3 feet tall. I shared this room with my twin sister for several year...

My Black Cowboy by Kota

My story is similar to the other one but it is pretty different than that one. When I first noticed The black cowboy I was laying bed at age 7 and my blanket kept moving, so I screamed for my mom and she told next time that happens to tell it to leave me alone, so I did. That night after I screamed ...

Lucky Necklace by Kendall_m

I used to live in Portland Oregon, where our house was as haunted as they come. My mother and I both heard our names being called when we were alone in the house. I would see a small owl like figure when I would go around corners or while sitting on the couch in the living room. Beer cans would crun...

Our Little Rascals by Letum

This story has nothing creepy about it, but I'd like to share with everyone. We have in our home what we call Faeries. Yes, they're sneaky and playful. We've never had any negative feelings or experiences with them. A few of the things they like to do is mess with my chocolate stash! Yes you read...

The Girl In The Roller Skates by Jellopudding

My very first paranormal experience happened when I was maybe about 7 or 8 years old. At this time we lived in an older trailer, it was remodeled but still old, on a farm.

Work Experience by Sellene

After graduating high school I got a job during the summer months before going to college and then I would have to go to part time work (mostly weekends).

Basement Movement by Sellene

So earlier I had posted a different experience about this house that I had when I was about 7 years old.

First Time Experience, Age 7, Demon Or Negative Energy? by Sellene

When I was about 7 years old I was sleeping upstairs where my bedroom and my brother's bedroom was located along with a spare bedroom and a bathroom.

Security Guard's Mall Hauntings by icec0rpse

I've been working at this tiny Mall in Coeur 'D Alene, ID, for the last four years. Two of those years I was working as a Custodian part-time while working at Taco-time.

Broken Man by MeganSierra

It's been awhile since I've posted here, mostly because life has gotten in the way. But it seems no matter how busy I get, I still find time to be haunted. See, I used to be terrified of ghosts. And I'm not going to lie, they still frighten me. But recently I've found peace with the deceased, and...

Day Care Scare by scarlettohara

I worked in a day care in a small town in Idaho. It was located right behind a cemetery and was a brand new built property.

Glowing Blue Eyes? by ilovesoccer95

My family used to live in a home in Madison county Idaho. I was very young at the time, maybe 6 or 7. This is one of my most vivid memories from my childhood and it still makes me nervous when I'm alone. My family and this house have a history of experiences like mine and I think they could be relat...

Crazy On The Couch by matsaw

I recently posted a story on here titled The New Resident. That story happened to me years ago but this one only happened a few months ago. It gets pretty hot here in Boise, Idaho in the summer, so my air is constantly running. My house has central heat but I don't have central air so I have a h...

The New Resident by matsaw

I have always been interested in the paranormal since I was a little fellow. I used to make my father bring me inside old abandoned houses that I would see around the area that we lived, in hopes of seeing a ghost and lucky for me my dad would always take me to them if they were accessible. I think ...

Horrific Hands by GreenGhost

This happened last year in the month of March. I have never posted a story before... So I'm not quite sure how to go about telling it... I haven't really told anyone because it left me very shaken and quite scared to sleep that night. (I've told my closest friends and family.) I was sitting in h...

White Floating Head by MeganSierra

A lot of strange things have been happening around my house, but nothing solid enough to report. At least until now. Leading up to this only one thing was happening, and that was my bed shaking every night. The shaking wasn't really a problem, although it was annoying, and I simply let it happen....

Demons, Ghosts, And Everything In Between by Grimm-Reaper24

I have lived in my apartment for about five years now, and I'll admit that I'm not a stranger to seeing ghosts or experiencing forms of the paranormal but living here, I have gotten more experience than I could have ever asked for. Five months after I moved into my apartment is when the activity...

The Thin Air Ghost by Ferrarigirl

When I was around nine years old, my family lived in a beautiful house in Idaho. The house was peaceful, didn't seem that old, and we were in a popular neighbourhood. The house had two stories, but in northern states some houses have the second story underground, below the first. The upstairs was wh...

Gremlin? by MeganSierra

I wasn't going to post anything about this, but at this point I'm just curious. Probably 5 months ago my brother continuously complained about this thing that he fondly named a "Gremlin". He said it looked like a short black creature that would mess with his things and crawl around in his bed at ...

Once Grandma Dies, Everything Changes by only1mariah

Around the time I started middle school, strange things started happening to me. During the time that my mother was married to her second husband, his grandmother died.

The Attachment by snypeangelz09

This situation took place about a year ago, a few of my friends and I do some amateur ghost hunting, nothing too professional though I do have some nice equipment now...

Angel Or Demon by coolskool

This happened a few months ago... Well maybe more like a half of a year? I really can't remember when. I had just gotten back from the mental hospital for my Bi-polarism which was triggered by a BAD encounter with a person online. I was REALLY depressed and feeling sad/angry. I was lying in bed t...

Murder House by moonfire2011

I used to live in a small one level unit apartment in 1991.

One time I caught him ru...

Unnerving Phone Calls by calvinsmom

Transparent Man by MeganSierra

What's been happening lately to me has been going on for a couple of days now, but hadn't gotten story worthy until last night. To start off, I'll give a little background as to what I think it might have been, but I'm not sure, it's just a feeling. There was an old man who had gone missing a whi...

Demon Watching Me by MeganSierra

I've been considering whether or not I should tell this story. I figured I never would, would never tell a soul about this. I decided that I might as well though. I just want to know if there's anything I can do about it. Probably about a year ago my neighbor across the street died. I never learn...

Baby Doll Noise by MeganSierra

This happened a few months back in January of 2011. This story is more on the wacky side than anything else. My mother and I are very open to the paranormal, and can sense ghosts. I can feel a ghost's presence, emotions, and occasionally I'll get a sense of what they look like even if I don't actua...

I Think I Have A Guardian Ghost by RadioZombie

Alright, well, I suppose I better begin. When I was little, only about four, when I went to bed I would wake up in the middle of the night. Not because of noises or any of that, I just... Woke up. But I remember always looking up and seeing a dark figure leaning above me, like a silhouette... Its...

First Time Being Haunted by MeganSierra

My first major ghostly experience happened when I was about 13. Before this I have had a few odd things happen here and there, but this was different. We moved into our house when I was probably about 10 years old. The house felt oddly devoid of feeling, and strangely unwelcoming. I'd never exper...

Hey, my name is Humphrey, I just turned 31 on January 28th, and well, my house began to experience a nightly occurrence. Every night at 2am. My doorbell will ring.

Strangled By A Ghost by Tay-Tay-

Ever since my family and I have moved into my aunt's house (Who had many Japanese and Buddhists figures in the house), we have been experiencing unexplainable things. But I will just focus on the two biggest ones. But first, I would like to tell you about the little I know about the house. My grandp...

The Thing Walked Through Our Living Room, What Was It? by 22aya

This story happened many, many years ago when I was very young but the image is still clearly burnt into my memory. I've never forgotten what it looked like, and thinking back on it now this perhaps was the place where all of my paranormal experiences and belief in ghosts began. First, let me expla...

The Finger by nateeta

My name is Natasha, and I have an interesting story to tell. So a long time ago when I was probably 10 years old, I had a couple really weird experiences, and even though it happened a long time ago, I remember them like it was yesterday. So ever since I was little I had never liked sleeping in ...

Maria Lynn - Ghost Girl Who Haunts My Best Friend by BethyBoop

Let's make this clear. This story is unsolved and that is why I am posting it although it scares me out of my mind to do it. It was about a year ago when my friend decided to tell me about her house. She had just moved and almost immediately began to see the little girl. She looked a little youn...

Demonic Encounter by caddieman

My name is Derek and I am 17 and live in Middleton Idaho. My entire life I never believed in ghosts or heaven and hell (or anything for that matter) until just recently.

It Got Physical by dollface

Before I begin there are a few things I would like to point out. The following experience I had encountered is one I believe that had something to do with my father, whom passed away June 3rd, 2008. His birthday was none other then today, January 13th. I find it peculiar that out of nowhere I got in...

Who Was That Man? by MissSensitive

I had just gotten all of my songs on my newest hand-held music player and finished with all of my chores.

Pencil Game Demon by twilightfan

First of all, this didn't happen to me, it happened to my friends, and it was really stupid of them to do this, I know.

Ouija Board and the Doll by pistol_pete495

Me and 4 of my friends skipped school one day and went to my friend's house. We were kind of bored, so we decided to pull out the Ouija board. I had never played with one before.
