Bad Dream Or Sleep Paralysis? by Rattler27

I recently stumbled on this website and I'd like to get your take on an experience I had two years ago. First a little back ground. I'm a twenty-seven year old construction worker. I've never done drugs and at the time of the story I had and still have stopped drinking alcohol. I'm what my mot...

Graveyard Follower by Skadus

I've never been one to be too afraid to tell people my stories. Seeing paranormal activity runs in my family as much as some of us don't like it. Wasn't sure what story I should start with but, here's this one. It comes from my time on Keesler AFB in Biloxi, MS. A friend of mine got fascinated by...

Personal Experiences And Ability Issues by Obsidianblade

First, I'd like to say thank you for reading, second this story will contain multiple experiences over the course of my life. I'm an empath it's a gift a few on my mother's side have as well. Even as a child I could feel and take on others emotions. The earliest I guess paranormal event was when I...

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...

The Daycare's Guardian Ghost by Sterben24

I'd like to start off as saying I've always thought the paranormal, and ghosts were tv and hollywood made up nonsense. I work part-time at a local daycare ran by a family friend while taking night classes. For the family friend's privacy I won't say the name of the daycare. The first day I sta...

Just In Time by ibelieveyou1

In 2001 my mother moved to Atlanta, Georgia for 4 months for her job. I lived with her but I stayed home instead of going with her. I believe it was in April of that year. I had gone out with my best friend clubbing, something we always did on the weekend when I was in my twenties. We had a great ti...

The Red Eyed Shadow by Sinisterserpent

This is my fist, paranormal experience. I was a firm sceptic and believed after we died it's over. It all began when I was ten. My family and I moved from Indiana to be closer to my mother's family. We live roughly half a block away from them. I will be fast forwarding to the later years as well....

I Think I Saw Myself Hovering Over Next To Me? by salsapicante

This is a little scary, I'm still a little shocked. This just happened about 30 minutes ago. 5:30am. I kept waking up throughout the night because my pillow kept falling over. I kept pushing it off the side of the bed with my head, and I could feel its absence every now and then and wake up. I don't...

Spirit On A Bed (?) by DeliverDawn

Witchcraft can be a truly wonderful and beautiful thing--a path to enlightenment, the same as many others. Not all witches practice so-called "black" or harmful magic, and I certainly never have and don't intend to. However, when one begins to learn magic, among the first things they are told to stu...

Great Aunts' House And Other Ghosts by joanne1002

I grew up visiting great aunts whose brother died in the house. His room would stay ice cold no matter how hot the rest of the house was, and they kept this house sweltering hot all year round! This is the house where cabinet doors that were stuck came swinging open at me. That was my 1st encounter ...

Evil In The Corner by DeliverDawn

My childhood best friend had a great deal of paranormal activity around him--and when I say that, he was (perhaps both unintentionally AND purposely, at times) inviting extremely dark, extremely negative energies into his personal space, and I've chosen to not relay the majority of the stories that ...

Disembodied Voices At Work by DeliverDawn

FULL DISCLAIMER: While all of the spirit encounters I've had have been almost certainly paranormal and cannot be explained away, this is the only one that MIGHT have been partially created from my imagination--but I don't really believe that's the case, for reasons of which I'm about to explain. ...

Visits From A Shadow by Eve28

This took place in my parents home. But before I tell my story, I want you to know I never heard of a shadow person. I knew nothing about their existence, but that was about to change. In my childhood home we had a lot of unexplained things happen. Lights would cut on and off. The faucets would ...

Witch Of Yazoo by supernaturalresearchsociety

Running Up The Stairs by believeandsee

I was 11 when this story took place. I no longer live in that house and haven't experienced anything paranormal ever since. This story is about my sister Cas' dog, Lilo, who got hit by a car behind our house. Nothing strange had ever happened at that house until Lilo passed. I've had about two e...

Boredom Turned To Horror by DarkSerpent

This is just a short experience I had at about seventeen. A group of four friends and I were sitting at my house bored out of our minds. My buddy Joey (not his real name) was literally banging his head against a wall out of boredom. Tommy (not his real name) was reading a book he brought, his sister...

Gorgeous Day - Paralyzing Fear by Bokonon

I have told this story very few times to very few people. This is the only paranormal experience I have ever had. Thankfully. I was a junior in college at Mississippi State University. One Spring Saturday, I left campus to drive 25 miles away to the small town where the girl I was dating was at ...

Who The Hell Is Za Za by darkesgle

The only reason I'm on here is because I'm out of options, and I can't find a rational explanation. My name is Mark I'm one of the biggest skeptics you'll find unless I can see it feel it it ain't real. This all started at my friends house let's call her Emily. Emily was celebrating her twenty secon...

A Sleepover And The Window by Intrigued22213

I have several stories, and I've never been just terrified of any of my personal occurrences EXCEPT for this one. *Explanation of the house set-up for later: you walk in the front door into the living room, you go left and there is her bedroom, a bathroom, and her brother's bedroom. You go right...

Rude Lady by biggs20

I'm just going to get straight to the story. It has been a year since I posted on here and a lot has been going on. Ever since high school, I've experience sleep paralysis on a regular. So now I'm in college and my sleep paralysis is back and it's really starting to scare me. Just last week, I ca...

That'll Do Pig. That'll Do by Agua

I'm not going to disclose several specific things in this submission because it would make me immediately identifiable to anyone who knew me that read this. I've lived in a region of Mississippi for 20 years now and I'm a lawyer. I've been with the same firm the entire time. As I've stated and / ...

Activity In My 200 Year Old Church Part 2 by christennnc

The weekend before my birthday, my church held a lock in for the youth. Although I am not in the youth anymore I was required to be there because I work in the Nursery of my church and I am required to be at all of the children and youth activities. I was talking to some of the girls about the activ...

First Old Home In The Country by Agua

Shortly before I married my first wife, my parents purchased a house in a small village about 35-40 miles south of Jackson, Mississippi. They'd advised that we could live in it and work on restoring / renovating it, or they'd do it themselves and keep it for a rental property. Since the ex and I bot...

Pre-dawn Visitor by Agua

This happened around 1982 or 83. I would have been 20-22 years old at that time. I had party friends that I ran with regularly and, normally, on weekends we'd commonly spend the night at one of the gang's house and turn the entire weekend into a party. I was living at my parents' home at that time, ...

Introduction And Small Incidents by Agua

I've had this stuff happen to me all my life. Most were just little things. As I'd told my wife before we were married, I WISH the stuff DIDN'T happen, but it has. I suppose I'll start by sharing a few of the small things that have happened over my 54 years in Mississippi. I suppose the earliest ...

Maybe It's Family by momof4

I am a woman in my 30's now but story starts back when I was 12 years old. My mom was a single mom to 3 kids... Me and my 2 younger brothers. My mom sacrificed a lot for her kids, so she gave the 3 of us the 3 bedrooms and she slept on the couch. One night after we all went to bed, I remembered ...

The Evil Within My Closet by christennnc

Because of the activity my family has experienced in our home, we have concluded that our house is haunted. I believe that my room is the most haunted room inside of our home. In May 2013, I began noticing some strange things happening in my room. My room became freezing cold, which was odd beca...

Activity In My 200 Year Old Church by christennnc

Growing up, I have had several experiences. A majority of my experiences happened at my house, but my most recent experience was at my church. Just a little background on my church. It is over 200 years old. In the 1800's it used to be an old school house. There isn't any known deaths that happ...

A Stormy Night With Angels by Eve28

I was woken up by a loud crack of thunder. And realized it was pitch black in our trailer. The lights would go out every time it stormed. I had my niece in the bed with me, and my other two nieces were coming down the hallway. The only way you could see is when the lighting struck lighting up the ro...

Knocks On Our Doors by biggs20

Let me just start off by saying I love this site. I have been a huge fan of the paranormal world since I could remember. This story that I'm about to explain is not scary at all just a little shocking. This experience happened around December of 2013. There was my friend who I shall call C (femal...

Tall Dark Man by Rebel13

It's a cold January night around 10:00 pm, just a normal laid back night. After watching a couple of episodes of Family Guy, me and my girlfriend climb in bed snuggle up and fall asleep. The bed room is dark except for one corner of the room next to the dresser where I have a night light plugged in....

The Ghosts At My Friend's by disturbedretribution

My friend and his family live in Potts Camp, Mississippi. Perhaps important to note is that his sister-in-law's family formerly owned a plantation near the trailer. In fact, there is an old, run-down slave shack just across the road. From the time Dakota and his brother and sister-in-law moved in...

A One-time Visit by RadicalToast

I was 7 or 8. I lived with my mother, father, and little brother. My father was in the military, U.S. Army. My mother was unemployed. We lived on a military base in Kansas. My mother told my brother and I that we were going to Mississippi to visit our family. At the time, my father was deployed over...

The Little Girl And The Cloaked Figure by chrisstar

Look, I don't care if you believe me or not this is true, okay? Now if anyone wonders about why I don't live with my parents it's because my father and I got into an argument that turned into a fist fight and Ashley and I were told to get out. Oh, and by the way, I don't drink anymore. Now I'm l...

Final Goodbyes by soul_shine

I recently submitted a story titled "Lingering Great Grandparents" about my house. I neglected to mention one of the more strange things that have happened. On one occasion, I was laying in my bed when my television turned on. Only it was just really loud static, as if a VCR had been left on or some...

The Creature That Hides Beneath My Nephews Bed Part 2 by chrisstar

Things have gone from bad to worse since I first told about this creature that torments my five year old nephew while he sleeps. Both of my nephew's parents passed a month ago and he hasn't been the same. My nephew's name is Conner. For about a month now he's been attacked by this pale green, ha...

Lingering Great Grandparents by soul_shine

I live in a house built in 1940 by my great grandfather. It has been lived in by family since the passing of my great grandparents. One cousin actually had so many frightening experiences there, she left in a hurry, leaving behind many of her belongings. Another claimed that when he lived there, he ...

Saint Seraphina? by exit51wareagle

I'm pretty sure my daughter is "friends" with St. Fina. She talks about her and Seraphina all the time and tell us that Seraphina is a princess. What an odd name for a 4 year old to randomly come up with. I didn't know anything about Saint Seraphina until I googled it. The only thing I came up w...

The Creature That Hides Beneath My Nephews Bed by chrisstar

First let me just say that this is not just some monster under the bed story. Okay this thing is real and attacks my nephew in his sleep at night. My nephew's parents just died so my girlfriend Ashley and I moved back to my parents' house to help take care of him. He's five. At first I thought i...

Helen by StaceyM

My husband and I were going to sleep on a typical weeknight last week. The television was off and the bedroom was dark, except for natural moonlight coming through the tops and bottoms of the windows. I was in that "twilight" sleep; relaxed and still, but still fully awake. All of a sudden, I heard ...

My Grandfather Saved My Life by chrisstar

So to sum up the wonderful month I've had. I broke up with my girlfriend; moved out of the apartment from the previous story, then I beat the crap out of my now ex best friend. (Bet you can't guess how the break-up with my girlfriend and the beating my now ex-best friend got are connected.) Anyw...

Man On The Hill by SilverBear

When my husband and I first got together, like any normal man, he took me to meet his family. His family owns a little over 200 acres of land out in the middle of nowhere. Cow country, if you will. A couple of months later, we moved onto family land into a single wide trailer. On of our favorite...

Mommy. Mommy. I Gotta Go Potty, Mommy by SilverBear

Since I've gotten pregnant, I've noticed I've been more sensitive than usual. Where something wouldn't stand out to me normally, I find it standing out and beyond the crowd. My homes have always active. Every single one I've moved into, new or not, has had someone/something move in with me. It's alw...

Did She Follow Me Home? by chrisstar

Evil Spirit Child by me1983

I was laying in bed asleep one night. I woke up and couldn't move at my father's house. I wasn't dreaming. I looked at the computer and noticed a very strange static on the screen instead of the usual screen saver. I was very scared. A little girl dressed all in black came into the room and she was ...

Old Salem Cemetery by GhostbustersMississippi

The rural deep-South is a place of legend, particularly for those with an interest in the things that go bump in the night. It seems that the ancient woods and swamps are infested with spirits from a past life. One such place is a little secluded cemetery in northern Mississippi called "Old Salem". ...

Mr. Jones by ada

I listen to music everyday of my life. I keep a clear mind when I do this. I love The Counting Crows. I know, you're wondering what does this have to do anything? There is a reason why I am adding this. I have recently painted my room. Actually, I did Saturday. Well here goes. I play my CDs in m...

My Little Girl by The_Raven

I've previously written of my experience with a room we remodeled in the house I now live in. In the previous post I mentioned a few others who "lived" with me, but they aren't really living. There are three others, but I think I'll start with my little girl because she's been with me the longest. ...

The Grave Of Pawpaw by ada

I have decided to write things as they happen. It's easier to get it all out and not worry about what happens next. It's hard to hold it all in. I am sitting at my grandpa's grave right now. I had to send this right away to you guys. He and I never got along too good. But after he died 6 years a...

Mississippi's Secrets by ada

There are things in this world you can see and touch. But in my world they follow me and try to communicate. Strange ways, I might add. I have been seeing a shadow. I know it's a small boy. I have said once before I have done a history check on this house and it's property. Not good enough histo...

Darkness Never Sleeps by ada

I have been a medium for what I believe my whole life. I have had tons of things happen to me but this is the most interesting story. It happened to me a week ago. My child sleeps with me and has been telling me that there is a old lady angel that gives him old marbles, in fact I have seen him tal...

The Room At The Back Of The House by The_Raven

I have been looking through this site for a little while now, and I have finally decided to share my story. I'm not really looking for advice, but if you have any input I'd be glad to hear it. You never can have too much information when to comes to things like this. I want to start off with an in...

Ghost In The Hall by Barbie1637

This is a fairly short story, but I thought it may be interesting to share. Growing up we lived on an old indian burial ground. Now I know there is a few people on here that think Indian burial grounds are not haunted. Well I am here to tell you they are sadly mistaken. When I was about 8 years ol...

He Amuses Me 2 by sonri

Its difficult to know where to begin. An entity is communicating with me in its own little ways. Frequently, it uses the baby moniter making clacking sounds and sounds only made when the antenna is being touched. Quite a few times, I have heard loud cries and make a dash for what turns out to be my ...

He Amuses Me by sonri

Probably, like the other times I've attempted to share, for one hilariously creative and aggravating reason after another, sharing any of my major experiences just won't work. Amazingly enough the computer came on, the site came up, and the keyboard seems to be working. So, I wonder what he'll d...

The Girl In The Doorway by SilverBear

My first violent experience was in the back of the house I grew up in. I lost my grandmother at the age of 12. I went head long into a mass depressive state, and nosed dived into Satanism without doing any research. I wanted my grandmother back, and negating that I wanted to tear down the world arou...

Little Girl Named Mary by SilverBear

After my mother remarried, we moved in with her husband. The experiences started almost immediately. You would walk though out the house and come across a cold spot. You could hear footsteps walking through the house, sometime close or when the house was empty, though no one would be there were the ...

The Speechless Ghost by msmagnolia

My name is Kimberly, I am 31 years old. At the age of 17 I had an encounter with some type of spirit. The incident took place twice in less than a year. One morning while lying in bed with my back facing my bedroom door I heard footsteps coming from the front of the house, we had tile floor, no ...

Mike by gelflingfay

This story takes place when my oldest daughter Dynasty was roughly 1 1/2 to 2 years old. We had been living in our new house for about 6 months to a year. The house was haunted and we knew it shortly after we bought it. We always seemed to end up in haunted places. It was creepy being alone at night...

Vietnam Prankster by JoBee

This story is about a ghost that haunts the building I work in. I wanted to share this with the group because it is a nice story and shows that not all of our spiritual visitors are evil in intention. If you read my other story, you know that I am in the Air Force. I am stationed at Keesler AFB righ...

Sad Airman by JoBee

I joined the Air Force when I was 18 and was whisked away into a new life. I went through the normal basic training as any other airman does, and then proceeded to Mississippi for my technical training, to learn my actual job. I turned 19 while at that location, which was easy to do because I was th...

Voices In My House by Aurora123

It was May of '09. My grandmother has diabetes and her blood sugar went so high, she went into shock. The night she went into the hospital, my mother, my brother and our dog stayed in the house. That night we heard voices. Like clear talking and walking right outside the door. We were all in mom's r...

The Man And The Boy by kellyb09

I'm going to make this short and to the point. My best friend lives in PA and has a lot going on in his life right now. We both see and hear things often, me being on a daily basis lately. And because we both believe each other it's a lot easier to keep our experiences to ourselves. People we know d...

Figures Out Of The Corners Of My Eyes by TheAlexandra

I have never been a strong believer in the paranormal, but lately I can't deny that odd things have happened to me around the house. Nothing huge - but just big enough to be noticed. About 4 years ago when I was 14, I began to see these little black spots out of the corner of my eyes. I think they ...

More Than Just Sleep Paralysis by Meggyhy131

I did some research on out of body experiences and astral projection and what not, well I came across sleep paralysis and I was thinking you know hey that kind of sounds like what's going on with me because I'm still confused about what is taking place. See I have some similarities of sleep paralysi...

Seeing Dogs? by -megan

When I was a young girl, I was fascinated with paranormal activities. I was always reading ghost stories and found the other realm to be a subject worth delving into. Once it seemed to take over my life and I was having horrid dreams (I was in fourth grade at the time), I stopped reading about all o...

Spirits In My Room by chat234

I will be sharing some of the experiences I had in one of my old bedroom. Before then I'm going to give a little background about myself. I'm Cambodian and was born in Thailand; I'm 20 years old and currently live in Minnesota. As a kid I was always able to see ghost/spirit but in my case it was a l...

My First Of Several Supernatural Experiences by mb0722

I have always "believed" in the supernatural. I feel just because I had never seen or experienced anything does not mean that it does not exist. This experience happened to me a while back but I will always remember it. It was in the summer of 2002. I was a single mother of just 2 boys back then....

My Weird House In Mississippi by TygerDall

I felt compelled to write this tonight, on Halloween. This is a collection of strange occurrences at a house I grew up in. Since this happened so long ago, some of the details may be a little left out, but I will try to keep everything together. The house where these events happened was our first...

A Demon Before I Sleep by kmarie

Dear readers, this is my third story submitted to this website. Just a couple of weeks ago, I submitted a story called Paranormal House. Just after typing in that story, I decided to read some other stories on this site and I came across a story about demon hauntings at night and that reminded me of...

Paranormal House by kmarie

So, I have already submitted a story once before and would love to thank everyone who commented on it! You all have helped me understand what is going on a little bit more. But anyway, to get to the point, I have since experienced other paranormal activity in the house I am living in now. My fat...

Do You Think I Have The Ability To Contact Ghosts? by kmarie

I am 17 and have always been interested in the paranormal. I may sound crazy when I say this, but I think I may have always been able to contact the other side. I remember when I was really little, right after my grandfather died, we were all at the zoo and I was holding my dads hand and I looked ov...

Boy In Blue by sambob9

It was a while back now. I was 12 at the time. I shared a room with my sister, who was 9 years old. I didn't have a big house, it was just average sized. It was a pretty desolate area. It was in Mississippi. I cannot remember the exact date, or year as a matter of fact, as I am in my twenties now...

Lady In The Pink Flowing Gown by kellyb09

As a child it is very difficult to get an adult to believe you when you say you have seen something that cannot possibly be real. What is a child to do when they really experience something and do not have the courage to tell it? You do like I do and wait until you are grown. My story goes back t...

My Faithful Dog by raingrl01

I read somewhere that an animal that is very close to their owner knows when it is their time to go. They can sense when they are needed in their owners life and then again when they aren't. My mother got us a cockapoo (cocker spaniel and poodle mix) when I was eight years old. She was the best ...

Incubus Or Dream? by Mulattospirit

This happened in a course of several months. I am aware of what an incubus is and I have read stories of people that have had incubus encounters. After reading these stories I was able to find certain similarities with my own experience which lead me to believe that I may have had or will SOON have ...

Ghost Dream Wakes Me Up A Lot by amanda28

I have been having strange dreams. These dreams happen early in the morning when I am in a dream state. When this first happened I felt something pressing on the bed next to me. At first I thought it was my husband getting back in bed but when I opened my eyes nothing was there. I would feel thi...

The Presence At Beaver Lake by innbydelse

Beaver lake is an odd place. When you first drive up to the entrance, all you can see is a giant oak tree in the lake that's completely ALIVE. There are no fish in the lake, no turtles. No crickets or any insect can be heard. All of the vegetation on the shoreline is completely DEAD. Well, of co...

Madeline by ABFine

My wife and I were on a road trip in May of this year and made a stop in Natchez, Mississippi. We stayed at a former plantation house called, oddly enough, Monmouth Plantation. After checking in we were shown to our room by a very energetic and engaging bellman. When we asked him about a good place ...

My Childhood Demon by indeesoccer

My name is India Garmon and I've had the same reoccurring dream since I was about eight years old I am 21 now. When I was younger it used to chase me around my grandfathers yard, now keep in mind that the land we lived on was owned by former slave owners... When I became about 12 it started to get w...

Windy by Lexi

My name is Lexi. I live in a small town in George County Mississippi. When I tell about Windy to my friends and family, they laugh, like I'm joking. I'm not joking or making this up. My story 100% true. Windy is the ghost that lives in my house. I don't know what her real name is, but I feel like sh...

I Wish They Would Leave by Caleb
