At Wind Cave by rickvantrippen

It was shortly after the 4th of July holiday that I had begun a summer road trip. My aim was to see as many of our western National Parks as could be squeezed into a two month leave of absence from work. My travel vehicle of choice would be a new Ford Transit. Having purchased a little silver one,...

The Ghost I Named "feet" by Nastrum

After my older brother left around 2006, I transferred rooms to where his room became my room. For the first few months, it was nice having a larger room. Then one night, I awoke to the sensation of someone standing on my bed. I could feel a shifting weight to my lower left, next to my feet. It step...

We spent a good 3 hours driving through the Badlands, taking pictures and having a good time...

The Thing By The River by corpseguts

I never really believed in ghosts or anything supernatural before I had this experience with my friends. I have a lot of stories my friends would consider "supernatural". This exact story still scares me to this day, even though it happened months ago; I still think about it all the time. The fact...

The Stomper by Lady_Bug81

When I was in the seventh grade I didn't want to go to school because I hated it. So, despite my mom begging me to go to school I just ignored her which I learned was probably not a good idea.

My dad worked for Bureau of Indian Affairs so we lived in Government housing.

White Smoke by dene72

I have lived in my house for 7 years now (it is a very old house) and have always had a "weird" feeling that I wasn't alone.

Ella by Kira E. Horner

My Mom and my Mom's Mom (Nanny) and her Mom all have had the ability to feel energy of sprits. It is amazing to hear their stories about what they have experienced.
