Ghost stories from California, United States: Page 2

In my first story, My Mother's Poodle, I was age eleven. This time I'll share one from my twelfth year. I grew up in Pittsburg, Ca. I have four brothers and no sisters. My father and mother were and are still together - 59 years strong. For fun, on weekends our entire family used to go for hikes up ...

Golden Gate Bridge Ghost by EmmalineTexas

This encounter happened about 1982. That's quite a while ago, but it's stuck in my memory as one of the first encounters I've had with a spirit. Luckily, they seem to appear as normal people to me, so at the time I'm not especially frightened. The place was under the north pier of the Golden Gate Br...

My Mom's Poodle by MaggieMay_Not

Although I have experienced paranormal events - great and small - all my life, I've never written them, or discussed them openly unless I felt compelled and safe to do so. People don't treat the topic lightly and some get very upset. If it meets the approval of the readers here I will share some of ...

Alcatraz Ghost Was A Leg Man by monkeynavigated

My husband and I were in Northern California visiting his brother. While there, we did manage to fit in some touristy things like visiting Chinatown, and walking among the Redwoods. I was also able to find time to be felt up by a ghost at Alcatraz. What follow is that story. The tour started beni...

Voice On A Toy Phone by VeronicaMarie

This happened when I was about five or six years old. My sister and I were in our bedroom one night, and I was playing with a toy phone. Just a little plastic thing. Might have even been my baby brother's. I said hello into the receiver and clearly heard a man's voice say hello back to me, right int...

Great Auntie June...soon, I Must Tell Them by ShySgaile

My Gramma was born youngest of 3 sisters in Maine 1914. She'd tell me stories of the 'influenza' and wagons of bodies taken away (she was very young like 4 or 5)...her mother, my great Gram Hattie, being very ill, running feverish out into the snow... An older sister being so ill that her hair fell ...

Strange Man Kept Finding Me by VeronicaMarie

It was mid-May of 1981. My father had died suddenly of a heart attack about two weeks prior. He died on the same day escrow closed on the first condo my husband and I had bought. I was in a store in Mountain View on my lunch break, buying a few things for our new home, after recently returning t...

Portal Or Wormhole... Or Haunting? by justmenoname

When my son was younger he always saw a lot of beings. He no longer does we had the pastor came to bless the house, along with a group of 4 others (and my son never knew the pastor came to bless the house, because he came when my son was in school. And we never mentioned it to him). During those few...

Three As One? Angel Of Death? by ShySgaile

I woke at perhaps 2am one night about 5 years ago, got up to get some water and returned to bed. I was sitting up, but there was a figure in our bedroom doorway. I thought one of our kids was coming in - perhaps not feeling well. But it was not one of our kids. The figure became clearer, and it ...

Old Man Of The Cave by valkricry

On a story of mine, Melda asked if my brothers were also sensitive to the paranormal. I allowed that my older brother, Kevin, had experienced a few events and that I might share them at some point. Kevin led a nomadic lifestyle. It wasn't that he was lazy, or couldn't hold down a job, the boy had a...

The Sepulveda Ghost by ABCNinja

It was Thanksgiving, as I rode home from my sister's house in San Fernando Valley. The streets at night in Los Angeles are normally pretty barren, but since it was a holiday weekend, I felt like I was peddling through a ghost town. I was twenty two at the time and sharing a one bedroom apartment in ...

Malevolence by C_Emmanuel

This took place over the summer of 2007 in El Sobrante California. I always believed that people were responsible for their behaviors, and that paranormal phenomenon was just a Hollywood gimmick. This summer changed that. Among the range of human emotions, anger has never felt right to me. ...

Why Are Entities Experienced So Individually? by DirtCreature

I have always wondered why those that are sensitive (or those that happen to just experience a supernatural event) experience them so individually. Some people see black and white entities, others in color, some have been able to speak to them, or hear disembodied voices as clear as day. I find this...

Hollywood Forever by Ghoster2K

Friday, October 31, 2003 While I was in Los Angeles in October of 2003, beginning my celebrity grave hunting adventures at the famous Hollywood Forever Cemetery, I had a rather strange experience. As I was walking toward the Abbey Of The Psalms Mausoleum, a feeling of dread came over me. I could th...

Mill Valley Santa by ABCNinja

I have enough material to entertain any campfire audience through out the night, when it comes to ghost stories my trunk is full of them. And when I'm into story four or five, I myself start to believe I'm full of shiat, but believe me, these stories are real. This one is about the time I cam...

Haunted Condo by vala

I decided after posting my first story, I would just tell my stories in chronological order. If you read my previous story, you know that the house I grew up in was haunted and that I believe that a lot of the paranormal activity originated with my father (who is not a nice person). So this story...

Haunted Home/poltergeist Activity And It Followed Us by vala

This is all true. This is not a work of fiction. I wish it was because it was terrible to live through. I grew up in the Bay Area in California. The house I grew up in was built from the ground up by my father. No previous owners. My father is not a good man (he's done horrible things and is a cr...

This Never Happened To Me Before by Scorpio_Rising

I'm just going to start off at the time this happened. Earlier today around 12:00 pm, I had just put my son to a nap and was about to take one myself. I lay down and put YouTube on my phone because I'm afraid without it on I'll get sleep paralysis. I been having this problem for the past four months...

A Night Full Of Horror by littlebow320

This was a few months ago. It was a late night and me, my mom, and one of my sisters were all sitting in the living room. We were just gossiping and rambling about things here and there. We have two ceiling fans one in the living room and the other one was in the dining room and they were both on. A...

The Shadow Girl by littlebow320

This happened to me a couple of years ago while I was still in middle school. My sister the one I will be mentioning in the story was currently still in high school. When me and my family moved into our new house I had to share a room with my middle sister because the house only had three rooms and ...

Ode To Trees by Tweed

My husband has American roots. In 2013 we were staying with some of his friends in Los Angeles. This was the first time I'd ever been to this family's home, but I'd known them socially since 2009. My husband had been to their place many times and hadn't experienced anything odd. Their house is a ...

3 In 1 by svvar

As I was writing this I felt a little coincidentally spookily ooggolies. Not to veer off the actual story just a little observation. I've mentioned in my previous posts that I live in a cabin like home. A long drive way up, surrounded by trees, and you have to walk up a flight of wooden stairs to ge...

The Thing In The Hallway by DarkStar

I've been reading the posted stories on YGS for over a year now, so I've finally decided to post my first story about my very first experience. While it isn't exactly a spine-tingling tale of horror, there is definitely some spine-tingling in it, and the spine being tingled is mine... This incid...

Queen Mary Adventures by nora1112

I stayed on the Queen Mary in November 2012 in Room A 131 and the following happened: The TV in my room turned on by itself 3 separate times. I turned it off myself and checked to see that it was off and it would come back on when I was either in the bathroom or in bed. Also on my first night,...

Flying Underwear? by svvar

A bit over two years ago I first read about a serious succubus experience on a different website. I wondered if it was all fable or real in the spirit realm. I'm highly intrigued, binge reading on succubus and incubus for that week to come. At this time I started dating someone new. My relations...

F St. Victorian, Eureka, California by BeagleMom

When we were first married in 1966, we moved to Eureka for college. Our apartment was on the ground floor, (front 4 rooms) of a Victorian "mansion". I always called it a Victorian tract house because of there being a short row of them, all alike, on F street. The house was stately in its day, and wa...

Interweb Stories by svvar

Six years ago was when I first came across this site. I was pregnant and home a lot so I spend much time reading what seemed like every single story on here lol! Towards the end of my pregnancy and my sons first few months of life I wasn't online at all. I had moved into a new apartment with my husb...

Two Whaley House Ghosts by treehouse15

I'll add my experiences as well and let you all decide what to do with it. I've seen two apparitions at the Whaley House, and I've never been able to make heads or tails of what I saw. Although these stories happened some time ago, I've written them down before, so recall isn't an issue here. The...

I Believe Now by BiPoLaRuNiCoRn

Growing up I have always been told ghost stories from my dad. I chose not to believe them because it was stupid and fake. Or so I thought. He would tell me about all these experiences he had when he was little and my aunt and uncles all confirmed it. They all told me about this time my dad, aunt, bo...

My First by The_Puffin

Thinking back to my younger years I have always had a few events that happened shortly before I moved that never sat quite right with me. I was very young at the time, around the time I turned 8 or shortly before, so even when I told others they wrote it off as nothing more than an odd occurrence. ...

What Am I by callmeD

It's been awhile since I last visited this page. Let me start by asking what I am, or rather, who I am suppose to be. You see, the last year has been a year of self reflection. Needless to say the more I learned about myself, the more questions arise. For as long as I can remember, I've always be...

My Dad Returned! by BeagleMom

I have submitted this story years ago to the About.com's ghost story site. It seems to have gone defunct, so since I landed here, I have decided to share it with YGS crew! My Father was a remarkable carpenter and talented builder of custom homes. My husband and I bought a lot near Mom & Dads, as ...

The 7th Floor Ghost by Cersed240

I have worked security at a major hotel near the airport for 15 years now, and when I first got here I was told to watch out for a ghost on the 7th floor. I was told he likes to make his presence known at random times. Some of the older employees say it's one of the engineers (maintenance workers) w...

He Likes Junk Yard Wars by Cersed240

I have an experience that I would like to share, and I apologize if I ramble a little. I'm a firm believer in the paranormal, from various cryptids to spirits to ghosts. I also have a healthy dose of skepticism. My parents live in the historic town of Niles in Fremont, California. If you are a fa...

Was He An Angel? by trentinray

I am not sure what I believe in regarding paranormal activity and such, but I do have an open mind and like to do as much research as possible before making any firm decisions. This experience happened in November of 2010, a month after having my youngest. I had just had a procedure, to remove a kid...

Mother-in-law Talks To Ghosts by Always-Wondering

This situation centers on my mother-in-law, who happens to be Vietnamese. Although it doesn't directly affect me, I might have had an experience that's related to her. Just a brief background on my in-laws. My wife and her family came over from Vietnam in the early 90s. I'm not very close to my m...

Phantom Sounds In The Kitchen by Always-Wondering

This strange incident occurred recently in my current home. I have no way to explain it other than a phantom sound. It was the summer of 2016 and the house was fairly hot. I was having a hard time sleeping in my bedroom, so I decided to go down the hall, to sleep on our couch in the living room i...

Haunted Apartment In Southern California by Always-Wondering

This series of events happened in Southern California between 2000 and 2003. During that time my wife and I were living in an apartment building, while she was going to medical school. As I reflect back on my time in that apartment, I firmly believe that it held an otherworldly presence. Whether t...

The Livingroom Light by LegallyALoser

1983, I was 4 or 5 years old and sitting on the floor of my room next to the heating grate. It was very cold that winter and time for me to go to bed but the sheets were cold and I wanted to stay on the floor. My mom came in and told me to go to bed, I got up and got in bed and pretended to go to sl...

The Traveling Eye Glasses And My Very Weird Day by babygoatpuller

My husband, Mike, wears glasses all the time, except when we go into a casino. Our grandson found a website where you can get two pair of glasses with frames for about $6.00. Large selection of brand name frames and any script on the lenses. He got them within 6 weeks and loves them. We were driv...

Light Is Back, Possibly by Kya1994

Over a few weeks ago I slept on a bed that goes all the way down to the floor. It involved bars, and metal pieces at the ankles, so everyone was tripping and falling because of it. A few people damn near broke their ankles on that thing so I slept on the floor for a while, and in the meantime my dad...

The Demonic Face Of The Queen Mary by Jamie87

I've never been one to jump to conclusions about the paranormal. I always debunk before assuming an orb or blurry mist is a ghost on camera. That being said, there is no mistaking the photo captured when I went on the ghost tour on the Queen Mary. My boyfriend and I went on this tour expecting nothi...

Disappearing And Reappearing Diamond Pendant by BeagleMom

This is really not a ghost story, but rather an unbelievable occurrence. I received a diamond and white gold pendant from my husband to celebrate our first wedding anniversary back in 1967. Years later, while my hubby was deployed to Guam during the Vietnam "Conflict", I had it on and was shoppi...

Whaley House by bspilker

Last Summer I was down in San Diego taking a class for my job. One night a couple of buddies of mine decided to do one of those Ghost Tours down in Old Town San Diego. Now I wasn't really expecting much out of it but I figured it would be interesting just for the history in itself. The Tour star...

The Gift Of Knowing There Is An Afterlife by Rudyd

My True Story. I have experienced five supernatural events through the power of The Supreme Source, not sure if I should say through the power of God so I chose the Supreme Source. I think you will understand why. The first event is probably the easiest one for me to convey. If you can come to grips...

Not Sure What I Saw The Night My Mother Passed by OCGirl

My mother passed around 1:30 am on August 25, 2011 after a very long illness that had left her bedridden for her last 2 - 3 years of life. As soon as my father called I went right over to support him & see my mother. Although I had seen her just 6 hours before, very sick but still alive. Later th...

Do We Have A Ghost? by Rmac123

A little behind the scenes... My roommate, who is my best friend for 15 years, and I are moving out of our old place and moving into a new location. Nothing like this has happened for 14. 5 months.

Stop Touching Me by chickengirl2468921

We recently went on a road trip on the east coast.

We had to drive for another hour before we got anywhere. Suddenly my ...

Body Vibrating Upon Waking During A Nightmare by Justjess

A few months ago I had awoke from a nightmare and my body was vibrating as if I had a cell phone in my chest.

Family Visiting? by Avery

This is my first experience and it was when I was about 12 or 13 years old. I was in Colorado visiting my great-grandmother, grandfather, aunt, cousin, and other family.

What Happened After The Car Accident? by Anonymous520

Before I begin, this house was built studs up from 2008. So it's pretty new, and no previous owner I know of died. It is a spacious 4 bedroom house. My question is, why did these series of incidents happen? Nothing ever happened in our new house until this one incident. Any insights are helpful. ...

Mr. Karl by OCGirl

Mr. Karl is an older man (I think) that is living in my former residence where my daughter still resides. I'm not 100% sure when he showed up but it seems to be when my husband and I were going through some difficult times in our relationship and we lived apart for a few years. I remained in the hom...

Dreaming With The Dead by OCGirl

When I was in my early twenties, I had a very vivid dream that my grandfather was visiting me. I remember lying in bed partially sitting up on one elbow when he came to me.

I Think They Follow Us by Miamis_life94

Experiences Years After Uncle Passing by Mckayla2013

I've had a few paranormal experiences but this is a favorite and not scary and would like some insight on what you might think. My great uncle passed away a few years ago now.

Broken Leg Result? by Sanchez_92

Tremble by icantwait48

I didn't really believe in ghosts until I saw the show "Ghost Adventures". It's weird because I've never seen a single spirit and I'm a "see-it-to-believe-it" kind of gal. In fact, growing up, I went to church every week, but still never found my faith in God. But ghosts, I believe in, even if it's ...

There's Something In The Hallway by mmonday01

There was a time when I shared a bedroom with my younger brother. It was 1976. I was about 7 years. Being the older one, I slept on the top bunk of our bunk bed.

Mountain Man by ceciline

So about a month ago I took a road trip with my boyfriend. We stopped by a really cool looking mountain along the side of the really empty road.

My Own Domovoi Spirit by Zanzibar

I've read many stories of people encountering supernatural things or just something that can't be easily explained. For me most of them looked like stories about a house spirit.

Everything Started With A Knock by savagepotato

This is the story of a series of paranormal experiences that my friend and I shared, everything started in late March of 2014. I'm going to premise this by saying usually these stories happen over a moderate/long period of time, slowly building up to a crescendo. This is not one of those cases. Whil...

A Tap On The Shoulder by Ghoster2K

Wednesday, November 7, 2003.

Corner Creeper by rachelylala

From youngest childhood, as long as I can remember, I had this thing that lived in my room.

I had moved to Californ...

Not So Ordinary Orange Orb by Antu

I know many of you are skeptical of orbs and their connection to the spirit world, I am too; however, this is an event which I experienced with my brother-in-law I believe you will find compelling. This took place on 1 November 2002. My father-in-law had passed away around the first of August of ...

Bathrooms,hallways, And Dogs by Arynn072006

First is the creepy hallway ghost. I was staying up late and needed to go to the bathroom, so I got up out of my Grandparents' bed. When I exited their room, I saw this guy.

A Personal Haunting by Wolf-N-Stuff

Greetings. This is something that I've always wanted to talk about, but I've never really been open about until recently. I thought it was normal, but in researching and talking to more people, it's come to my attention that it's not so. So, I should start from the beginning. I have two entities ...

Spirit Attachment by SkyLoverr

For as long as I can remember, I have had a male spirit attached to me. It didn't matter where I moved or how old I got, he has always been there by my side. At times, I grow fearful of him, other times he comforts me and sometimes he is dormant for so long, I tend to forget about him. I first gr...

Ouija Boards Aren't Toys by kaykay3313

This story isn't mine. It is the story of not only my mother in law but my father in law as well.

It's very close to the boarder where Arizona and California meet. ...

Perhaps It's Upset At Me? by kaykay3313

This story takes place in my home town Hemet, CA. It happened this year, this month actually. On October 19, 2015.

Bones Found And A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words by babygoatpuller

First off, let me say that without Valkricy's help on this, I wouldn't be submitting my story. More on her further down. Last Monday on Oct. 7 I was checking the KCRA 3 news app on my phone. It's how I stay up to date on the local news around here. The headline was "Police Recover Human Remains I...

The Shadow Man Cometh by SirGhost

The year was 2007, and it was the Fall here in my hometown of South San Francisco, California. I know that much because it got dark before 8 p.m. We had a front door in our 2 story home, with an oval window that went from my waist to above my head. The glass wasn't exactly see thru, it was kind of f...

San Diego County Dark Roads by mainardo_flores

Just want to share a very recent ghost experience I just had a few days ago. I live in Escondido, California. There are plenty of dark rural roads here. I happen to frequent one such road due to my girlfriend living 30 minutes away from me. I often come home from her house very late. On the ...

Night Scares by cynthia59

On September 22, 2015, I awoke to my bed shaking very hard. You could hear the springs rattling. I could not move or yell for help. Finally I just screamed, "Dad!" and it stopped (both my parents have been dead for years now). I saw a black mass jump from my bed, it was 3:13 am. I turned all the...

Off Guard by Entropy

Normal night in Fresno, CA. Dinner was great and television wrapped up a night's entertainment. After routine rituals, I crawled in bed and said my prayers (yep, I still say my prayers, even as a grown man). I drifted off to sleep. Tossing and turning came to my discomfort through out the night. ...

My Imagination? by trishy_cee

My experience occurred in the early 1990's, when my family and I moved to Riverside. I was entering my junior year of high school at the time, when my parents had purchased a brand-new house that was built on a hill overlooking the 91 freeway and Corona, Riverside's neighboring city.

My Grandma's Houses by Deathdrive

My grandmother owned two homes in southern California. One was a small condo that her parents had lived in before her and the other was a house she had built on a large hill.

The Tall Dark Figure by ginaleo1979

I must start my experience with a quick prequel: The house I grew up in was in the central valley of California, and I believed it to be haunted. My mother, three out of six brothers, cousin, and uncle all experienced paranormal activity in the form of apparitions, unexplained noises/voices and nigh...

Vibration by Kya1994

It looks like we have a new ghost in the house. I slept in today, and so I think this happened between 12 and 1:00. I grabbed a bite to eat, and since I missed breakfast I ate lunch and went back to bed to see if I can get another hour or two of sleep. My sleeping schedule has been quite off lately,...
