It Could Have Been A Lot Worse by ScottRuiz

I have not posted in four years. Between the time of my last posting until now, I have yet to experience anything 'spectacular'. Until now. The other night I was home alone. The family took off for the evening with some of my in-laws that drove up from Austin. We have been in this new house we a...

My House Growing Up by amylou2215

I would like to say I have really enjoyed reading others' stories, so I decided to share my own. When I was about 12, my parents and I moved into a new house in a new town. Apparently, the previous owner was an old man that died in the house, so it's possible, he was our 'presence'. Odd things...

It Likes My Singing 2 by hippiesiren

So, recently I posted a story about my singing in the shower and hearing clapping, etc...

The shower curtain will open when someone is in the ...

The Voice From Upstairs by josephgogi

My wife, daughter and I were getting ready to leave our house this past Sunday. I was at the backdoor feeding the dogs when I saw my daugther walk out the front door.

Sister And Winged Being by hippiesiren

Let me state some things before I begin. First off, this first story takes place in the laundry room of an all female dormitory. This laundry room has a single window and no air vents. The night on which this occurred, the window was cracked open slightly, and I was alone. The washer and dryer had b...

Not Him, Then Who? by Chookie

Cemetery Walker by CheezyYogurt

This is a story my dad told to me at the supper table. My dad isn't one to make things up or lie, so I believe every word he said. My dad is a photographer who was hired to take pictures at a school in Lindsay. He headed up to the school well before dawn, it was still dark. My dad is driving, and...

A Ghost In The Kitchen by ponyfan4life

My girlfriend and I just recently bought a home in Richardson, TX about 7 months ago. This home was built in 1971.

Talking To A Man In My Room by Vicki34

About 10 years back when I had my first husband, we had bought a very old house. When we first moved in I found a scratched up picture in the shed in my backyard. It was of an old black man with white curly hair. Every night when I slept in my house the man came and visited me. I vividly remember...

Ghost Pretending To Be Girlfriend by superblok

I was staying over at my girlfriend's house and woke up at about 4 a.m. I looked up and saw a face staring at me. It looked like my girlfriend with her glasses on, but the face was a bit different and kind of creepy. I just stared at it for a few seconds but it disappeared. It seemed like she was st...

A Bit Of A Bother by freddysgirl1984

I've returned again for yet another story on my infamous house ghost of mine! This occurred only around a week ago, so nothing is being exaggerated due to time's sake. It's the favorite months of any teen: June, July, and August. I had just recently returned back from a twelve day trip to Japan, ...

Mormor: My Great Grandma by 2bornt2b

In 2009, My Great Grandma (who, might I add, was Swedish. Great Grandma in Swedish is Mormor) died. She was 85. I was devastated. My Great Grandma and I were very close. I was not allowed at her funeral, although my mother was. This angered me and I felt that I was neglected. Now, as this will be...

Ghost Scaring My Dog? by cakelehde

My dog Maisy sleeps with me in bed and always has since I got her as a puppy. I get in bed and she snuggles up next to me, I pet her and talk to her for a while and then I turn off all the lights and read YGS on my Android until I get sleepy. One typical night we went through our routine. I had...

Figure In A Black Suit by Cancan

Let me start by saying, I'm a strong believer in the paranormal. Especially ghosts and demons. I have seen only animals before, One being a family pet that drowned in our pool. And a few months later I would sometimes see it still at the pool side walking around or drinking the water. But it was onl...

Black Faceless Figure by Myboringusername

This happened when I was younger primarily but still happens to this day. I used to always tell my mother, "Daddy's going to call in a few minutes" or "Grandmas going to call in an hour!" It didn't matter who it was, I would usually inform my mom ahead of time on phone calls and I was always right. ...

The Leaning Shadow Man by Anonymoustx

I've been reading these stories for quite some time now with no intention of ever posting something.

My first memory of going to church was of my mother spe...

Something Lurking by Phoenix23

I am new to this site and a little unsure of where to begin with this... First, I will say I am a fairly skeptical person and consider myself very level headed and logical.

Ghost Smoke by kyotesknwlkr

It was in the 1970s, I was young, with two sons. We were living in a rented house close to an air force base. The house was small. It was three bedrooms, we only used two.

One day, earlier this year, I awoke after just a little sleep. I was somewhat groggy but otherwise fully awake. I felt something on my bed, and it moved around a little.

The Shadows Only Seen By My Dog And I by Yoruma

Please forgive me if I can't explain this clear enough to understand as it is a subject in which I usually avoid talking about. I'm also sorry this isn't much of a story, but a bunch of explanations of strange events which I still have no answer to. I guess what I'm really hoping is that someone can...

The Man In The Kitchen by JohnCano

When I was about five we used to live in government housing (La Armada II). It used to be housing for the U.S NAVY way before I was born.

Last night I was up late studying for AP testing when something strange happened. It was about 2am and I was totally consumed by my studies when a sudden loud noise interrupted my focus.

Harris Street Part 2 by vmolina9025

Both my sisters would wake up in the middle of the night, hold hands, and walk around the house to make sure every door was locked so no intruders would come in. They told me sometimes...

Turned A Non Believer Into A Believer by 13thomas

So last week I was lying in my bed when I look to my right for my water bottle. While I was grabbing a drink, I saw a tall black figure of a man. I didn't freak at all, I was just thinking I was crazy. My room is well-lit at night due to the moon shining through the three bedroom windows. I do n...

My Love by BitterSweet78801

Around the mid of February, my older sister and mom came to visit my middle sister and I from Uvalde, Texas.

The Underwood Devil? by spookyme401

I have seen the devil, I think. It's going to sound strange I know, but this really happened to me. When I was young, about 10 years old, I was with my grandmother driving all around town looking for some Halloween costume and was having a problem locating a store with anything worth a damn. Finally...

Chance Of Storms by BadJuuJuu

Things seems to get more active around our house depending on the weather. Makes sense since weather can influence the amount of energy in the environment.

Haunted House In South Texas by Southernbelle4

In 1995 my dad and stepmom bought a house in a small town, Portland, TX. They took my older sister (15), brother (11) and I (7) over to look at it.

Don't Say I Told You So by BadJuuJuu

A few years ago, on our way into town we drove past a small, somewhat rundown white house. We'd driven this route a hundred times, passed this house a hundred times, but I had never noticed it before. But this day, it jumped out at me. And all I could think was "that is such an adorable little house...

The Shower Shadow by owlisa

So, I've read stories on this site forever now and finally thought I'd join a few weeks ago. I didn't think I'd be posting so soon.

The Evil Black Vapor by mommarenee

I have had many experiences in my 35 years. This is the one that sticks out in my mind. Even though it was so long ago, I can still see it like it happened a few days ago. Perhaps because it is the scariest thing that has happened to me. Back in 2001, I was laying on my couch with my dog. I was al...

Scratching by Autumnpanda

I've had many odd happenings with the unexplained throughout my 18 years of life, but this one incident definitely scared me the most.

Evil Doctor by VSangel0309

You guys know me formerly as Elle0309; something happened to my account and I had to create a new one.

Missy by Baikeru

We only lived in Alamogordo for three weeks. Wayne's job didn't exactly work out. Turns out the boss was a sexist, racist person. Long story short, Wayne (and therefore my sisters) is half-Mexican. The boss didn't know this because you don't do a job interview by saying. "Hi. I am Wayne. I have mana...

Life In The Country by Baikeru

In 1999, my family (my stepfather, my mom, my four sisters, and I) moved out into the country outside of Merkel, Texas (my little brother came along a few months later.

Something Watching Me by chimchim

I lived in Texas for three years when I was a teenager. My grandmother had moved there in the 1950s because my mom needed orthopedic care (she had had polio as a little girl) and my mom's surgeon had moved to Texas. So our family literally followed him. When they grew up my mom and her sisters moved...
