Ghost stories from Minnesota, United States: Page 2

Illumination by mulder81

I have had stories on here before on titles I call The whistler. You can look them up, but this is not of that ghost series. Not much has happened in the last year, but we caught something the other night. June 3rd 2011, was a hot June night here in southern Minnesota. I was ready to mow the yard be...

Imagination Or Real? 3 by mai05

Now that is has been almost 6 months later, since my recent activity back in September 2010 (not at my house at least), I myself have almost come back to normal. I still get a high anxiety of going to bed. I haven't had any recent activities. I still have the little papered guy and my corn hanging o...

Scary Hair Pulling by flats

Hi everyone. Last year I moved into an apartment with two roommates and my son. The haunting/weird happenings didn't start happening until about maybe halfway into the year. I would feel someone sitting on the edge of my futon bed. One time, my cover was pulled a few inches away from me. Sometimes I...

A New Face And A Doppelganger by chat234

I will be sharing two stories in this post since this event has a new entity I have never experienced before. I've been living in my current home now since 1998, and I have had my fair share of ghost encounters in this house for many years. But that's a different story I'm going to write about later...

Man Who Whispered Into My Ears by mai05

My second encounter with the paranormal. I had another encounter with an apparition's voice. My daughter was about 5-6 months old. This was back in the fall of 1999. I was downstairs and my boyfriend at the time was upstairs sleeping in our daughter's room. I was downstairs by myself, in this cold d...

Cold Rooms And Ghost People by elementchaostwister

I was thirteen years old when I had a few encounters with ghosts or whatever you prefer to call them. I was getting ready to go to bed when I turned off the light and felt this freezing sensation come directly in my face. It was as if someone was breathing on me. When I opened my eyes, I saw nothing...

My Mom's Haunted Childhood by aherr

My mom's story took place in Laos, A country between Thailand and Vietnam in Southeast Asia. She and my aunt have always been telling how haunted their family and how scary it was. I felt bad my mom and her family went through this and her relative disown them. Back when my mom was younger, her da...

Imagination Or Real? by mai05

I have had a lot of paranormal activities that have happened to me since I was 20 years old. Ever since the major incident that happened when I was pregnant and with my father whom passed away 5 months before my first child was born, that was my first experience and now I see shadows once in a while...

The Faceless by phil1985

I was wondering if anyone reading this has had an experience like this. It did not happen to me, but it happened to my friends in high school, and I consider all three of them credible witnesses. None used drugs, drank only sparingly, and although all three had encounters with the supernatural befor...

Hispanic Woman And Lost Child by Koopa

A friend and I decided that we wanted to go fishing for catfish along the Mississippi River but we went late night. We thought that the best time to get there would be after 9pm and my youngest brother had apparently decided to tag along. The location was along the Mississippi river in South St. Pau...

Mysterious Screaming Girl And Laughing Man by lynzjay

My fiance and I were living in Burnsville when we thought we found a deal of a lifetime for the cutest little house in the downtown area of Prior Lake. Built in the year 1919, it was all newly remodeled with new everything! I fell in love when I first stepped foot in the door but my fiance on the ot...

Pictures Of The School by Hopeful23

It had been a while since anything paranormal had happened to me; I had almost convinced myself that nothing strange would ever happen again. It took a strange bruise on my arm to really get my mind thinking about the paranormal again. The bruise isn't what this story is about, however. This story i...

After My Dad Pass Away by kyongz

A little bit about myself I'm Hmong so I do believe in ghost and stuff. This event took place in Saint Paul, MN. My father passed away on May 19th 2005, about two weeks before I graduated from high school. Now I'm 23 years old and finally decided that I could maybe share the experiences I had. Y...

Phantom Footsteps On The Front Steps by Phobic1981

This story happened in my grandparents' old house. I had moved there, along with my boyfriend, because of an eviction. The house was empty because my grandfather had recently died (about a year prior) and my mother was deciding what to do with the house. This isn't a one-time story, or anything ...

The Barn Ghost by mulder81

This is a real story told by a trusted friend at work. I do not have proof, but the story is just spooky. He knows this guy, and very much believes him. We will call him Jim and he has never been a believer in the paranormal, or anything of the unknown nature. He is a skeptic. My co-worker and I are...

The Person At The Other End Of The Room by hauntee

About ten years ago my parents, my two older sisters, and I moved into this house. I had to admit that I liked the look and layout of it and the corner lot it occupied was charming but I never liked one particular upstairs bedroom. It was the one at the back of the house, the only one on its side of...

Grandpa, Stop Misplacing My Stuff by ParanormalSpectrum

This is a mixture of two stories. One's my mothers, the other is my own. My great grandfather died when my mother was eight years old. Shortly before him my great grandmother died as well. For forty years from the time he woke up to the time he went to bed, he would rock in his rocking chair. He...

Five Year Old Mystery by ParanormalSpectrum

My mother and step-father and I recently moved into our new home. Around the time I got a new bed and a large box of free stuffed animals and that when ghostly things start up. First off, my home was built on the grounds of where a house from the 1800s was built once. Around six to eight weeks ag...

6th Sense Or Just Coincidences? by frmSTP

I've had a few experiences over the years dating back to when I was a child. Never occurred to me, but my friend's mom one day said I might have the 6th sense. Creeped me out. Here are my experiences in a nutshell: Kindergarten: I saw a female figure in traditional clothing standing at the top of...

Not Attracting But Repelling by Hopeful23

The date was January 1st, 2008. I had recently been babysitting my neighbor's children while they were out celebrating with friends. My older sister was also babysitting at the time, for a different family further down the road. At the time I was in the car with my mother, she hadn't even pulled out...

Collection Of Events 2 by Hopeful23

I said that I might add a second part onto my last story and here it is. All events are true and all events happened at random times, on random days. My house is not haunted, but I may be. See what you think. Shadows - Always out of the corner of my eyes there's something quickly darting away. I se...

Collection Of Events by Hopeful23

Many of you probably know that I have had some pretty odd things happen to me. From Ouija boards gone wrong to being woken up at 3 am night every night I've had a lot of occurrences with the paranormal. Now I'm about to share some smaller experiences with you. I seem to attract various kinds of thin...

Strange Things by live_laugh_love

My family moved into our newly built house about four years ago. About a year I began to notice some strange things happening. At night I would be laying in bed and I would hear pots and pans rattling. And I can't tell you how many times I would come home from school and the attic light would be on....

Pain 2 by Hopeful23

Not many days had passed since me and Alissa had tried the Ouija Board. I didn't know what she did with the Ouija Board and I didn't care. I had gone to the store with my mom to get some photos from a disposable camera developed after I discovered it in a drawer. The camera contained photos from a c...

Pain by Hopeful23

A little note before I begin this story. It's rather long even with me splitting it up into two parts and I feel that this can't possibly be split up into three. This happened about a year or two ago and there were so many events that occurred. Everything in this story is true and every name in the ...

The Noises Only I Hear by Hopeful23

I would be lying in my bed at night, afraid of the dark like most kids my age (I would have been around 7 at the time) and worried that the 'noises' would come. Let me explain... While my parents were in the room across the hall from mine--most likely watching a movie--I would be sitting in terror, ...

Sizzling Chicken & Ghosts From The Late 1800's by jadeflower999

I grew up in rural southern Minnesota in the 1980's. My family was working class and we lived in a house built in the 1850's. I had many unusual experiences in that house growing up and this is one of those. When I was about 10 on at least two occasions, I was woken up in the middle of the night...

Whistler Revisisted 2009 by mulder81

It has been awhile since I posted a story, but we have had two encounters in the last 2 months. The first is with my wife as she got up early in the morning on a weekend and made coffee. The rest of us were still sleeping. It was dark out and all was quiet in the house when she heard a man's voice s...

8ft Tall & Distorted by Sergeant

This is a personal account of mine, which dates back to the late 1970's when I was about 19-20 years old. I was living in a house me and my roommates believed to be haunted (See my other submission) and it increased my paranormal interest. I was also actively working to make myself more sensitive...

In My Grandparents' House by Peeves

My grandparents live in an old, gabled house built in the 1920s. Apparently owned by a mine boss, the house has its share of oddities: my sister and I were hanging out in the basement when we noticed that classical music was coming from a coal shaft that led into the laundry room. We deduced tha...

Home Sweet Home by bebe78

Here is the background... My parents have lived in the same house for 32 years. They are the second owners, the man who built the home for his family also died (in the house) of Lou Geriggs Disease. I am 30 years old and have had unexplained experiences as far back as I can remember. One that re...

Aunt Does White Magic by mgtor

Here is another story I would like to share. I have an Aunt who has this weird belief. She does cleansing with chicken blood as well as lots of other rituals. I believe she calls it white magic. They wear these colorful beaded necklaces you are not allowed to touch. She also has all these saints...

Spiritual And Electric Incubus Encounter by towngirl41

I'm new to this site, but I've been fascinated by what I've been reading. I'm a happily married 41 year old woman with a teenage daughter. My husband and I are very Spiritual people, and so happenings in the unseen world are very common to us. I have a few experiences I would like to share with you....

Humming And The Drums by acm_92886

When I lived in Richfield I had lived in a house that was really old, built in maybe 1970, there have been no deaths or anything else I am aware of. My room was in the basement so I had my own little living room and my own bedroom. Every morning when I would get up to shower the house would be de...

Signs And Weird Symptoms 2 by knopik

After I posted Signs and Weird Symptoms yesterday I went to lie down on my couch. As I was lying there and watching TV, my husband texted me and asked me if I was okay. I told him I was fine, but I wasn't comfortable in the bedroom. As soon as I hit send on my phone, the couch starting shaking aroun...

Signs And Weird Symptoms by knopik

Three weeks ago me and my husband moved into our new house. We are starting a family and need more room. Throughout our lives we have both been sensitive to activity and have both seen our guardian angels. I had been confident of their protection over us until last week Tuesday. I woke my husband...

Whistler 4 by mulder81

This just happened to my step daughter last night 12-03-2008. I not sure I should say it was the Whistler, but then we are claiming anything happening here, is him in his prankish style. So far she had not had an experience from him. That night she was reading her book in the living room on the lo...

Haunted Insane Asylum by babygirlacm

I lived in Faribault Minnesota-it's a small town where everyone knows everyone. Well there is an old insane asylum that is now run down. It's boarded up and has been there for years. Teenagers like to go in there and mess around and do drugs. Well I have been in that place and it's creepy! As I w...

Out Of Body Experience by mulder81

I realize this is an Out of Body Experience, and not a ghost story so this may not be published, but I look at this as my ghost. I have two more stories in my life to come out, yet at a later time, and that will keep me up to date on my experiences. Thanks for reading! Ever had an out of body exp...

Campus Ghosts by babygirlacm

I go to school. It's like a college were there is a maximum of 300 to 400 students that go here. There are two dorms, one for the girls and one for the guys. The campus I go to used to be an old bible college. There have been occurrences of hauntings in some buildings here on campus in St Paul-I don...

Edgewater Girl by mulder81

It was during a company picnic, that I witnessed the ghostly girl at the park called Edgewater Park. It only lasted a few seconds, but it was so real to me. We all gathered, co-workers, friends and their families, for our company gathering. Alcohol would be put on later at a different location. ...

Whistler 3 by mulder81

This is the story of where the whistler gets his name, it came up on a visit with my stepson. The summer of 07, after the first events happened, came another visit form the ghostly intruder.

Whistler by mulder81

This is an addition to the Whistler at its latest event in our house in Glenville MN, just a few weeks ago. I will post more on the Whistler later. It was a Saturday when no one was home but me and the dogs. I was working in the garage and had the radio on in there that you cannot hear in the hou...

Haunted Minneapolis-1912 by MNPROPHET

I would like to share with everybody the most recent investigation team PROPHET undertook. It was quite unsettling even for a paranormal investigation team. We started the research weeks prior to the actual investigation, gathering history and information from the clients. It is a turn of the cen...

Unwelcome Ouija Visitor by Hoochler

In 1989, I was 23 and in college. I had a roommate, who is still a great friend. We lived off campus in a 2 bedroom apartment in Duluth, MN. I was curious, and still am, about all things paranormal, so my girlfriend at the time (who did not live with us) and I experimented with my roommate's Ouija b...

3:00 AM Ghost by ScottD

I moved into my townhouse in November 2002. I bought this house because of the location; it's in my hometown and near where I grew up. It was built in 1981. As a child I rode the dirt bike trails on the land where my house is. Before that, in the 1960's, the land was a sand pit owned by a large comp...

We were forced to move for my mothers' health, she required a first floor bedroom. Shortly after moving in our father, my mom's ex, moved in to help with the bills...

Following Ghost by FLAREWOLFF13

I am telling my story of what happened in my room, of the ghost that was following my friend. She is "sensitive" and can sense if there is a ghost or no ghost around us. She didn't know that there was a ghost following her, but my mom could sense a joking around ghost following her. So, when my frie...

The 3:20 Walker by Hmyers

Minnesota nights can be breathtakingly cold and are normally so dark you can't see ten feet in front of you. But when the moon is able to sneak out from behind the winter clouds, its reflection glistens off the snow covered ground and lights pathways deep into the forest. I grew up along a beautiful...

Shadow Men by Nichelle

My son is now eleven years old. He has never slept through the night unless he was sick. Not once. Not as an infant, not as a toddler, and now not as a young adolescent. He often has behavior problems in school, because he lacks focus and is prone to daydreaming and being cranky. He refuses to sleep...
