It was about 4 years ago when my husband and I went apartment searching.

The price was right and it gave us the opportunity to get a dog like we'd been wa...

The Bathtub Ghost by eberkhols

I had never experienced anything paranormal before, but I wouldn't say, at the time, I was a diehard skeptic either.

Angry Home by kuehnau

As it seems people seemed to have enjoyed or even sympathized with my first tale, I thought I would also pass along this one. In the story about the most recent house I lived in with my mother, I was troubled by what I thought were aggressive spirits, or perhaps just one. In it I had mentioned a...

So, I had a bad experience years ago at a party. I was at a friend's house in Mt. Clemens.

Anyway they decided to dr...

Age 6 by mediumat12

Shaggy Dog And Street Lights Are Confusing by bodoc

In the past I have been very skeptical about what is out there as I like to rationalize things. I have stories that have happened over the years, which has forced me to believe.

Modern Home Haunting by OceanxGoddess135

John And Sally Doe by frenchpoet

I used to stay with my Aunt Debbie and Uncle Joe every couple of weeks or so, as I was very close to my cousin Jennifer.

The Lady In Pink by frenchpoet

When I was four, my parents took myself and our little Shitzu, Mickey, to a cabin up north to stay with my aunt and uncle.

I am terrified lately. A white van has been waiting outside of my house the past couple of weeks when I'm prompted -- for whatever reason -- to wake up at 3 a.m. It just sits there blocking my driveway and then immediately driving off when I notice it. I thought it was a person at first, but then I ...
