There Is Another World by Paul1

I have read almost all of these Ghost Stories and I felt the need to comment for all readers. I am also educated in certain fields that take into account the reality of God and the Heavenly courts. We are here on earth in a physical form but spirits do exists. Some are not good, most that try to con...

Red Eyes! by ledoux69

I'd like to say, that I am pretty disturbed about my subject and since the internet has come about, I have been looking for some kind of answer to explain what I saw and to this day no one seems to have an answer! I see that some people (very few) have seen almost exactly what I saw but, that is whe...

Ghosts Come & Go by JuggaloJohn

This is my 2nd posting. This is a common thing in the house and has taken place more often than not.

Also, they come in from the front do...

Old Home by emmymarien

At the home I was born in, as a child we lived with my grandparents. When my parents were married, my grandparents gifted them the house for their wedding and moved out.

Friendly Nudge During Late Night Feeding by thething45

Seeing A Ghost For The First Time by Abigails413

Possible Ghost Following Me by jersey4ever

This all starts when I was in high school. I use to live in Upstate New York in a house that was built by my great-grandparents a long time ago.

Grandfather Continues To Watch Over Family by phatdragon

While this happened when I was very young, I don't believe it was the product of a little boy's vivid imagination due to the facts that the phenomenon repeated itself many times, and I didn't think it was a ghost. When I was about four, my family moved back to the US for a few months before reloc...

Then after my gr...

New House... New Ghost? by CrimsonMoon

So let me start by saying, I have never experienced anything supernatural prior to this. In fact, I would call myself a supernatural skeptic.

Haunted By A Ghost Or My Imagination? by happyferret12

I think the first time anything happened was two years ago. Now, nothing new happened. Nothing changed. We didn't move, no one died, and no one sinned.
