Duende's House by SummerEclipse22

In my neighbourhood there's an Old Catholic school and it's said to have someone or something unnatural roaming around inside it.

Our Poltergeist by Awsomeghoststoriesman

I've heard people say that poltergeists are demons but I'm not sure if that is exactly true. I would appreciate if you commented and told me your opinion on these situations.

New Apartment Adventures 2 by lazria

Just some minor updates on the Norfolk, Virginia apartment building. It has changed owners a lot since I've moved in - 3 times so far.

5 Bed House With Cheap Rent by JennusDemenus

Back when I was a young, broke college student, a friend and I thought we had stumbled upon the deal of a lifetime: A huge 5 bedroom house with 2 bathrooms for dirt cheap rent.

Footsteps Upstairs And The Amateur Typist by CL3V

My wife and I were living in a tiny two bedroom apartment when we found out my wife was pregnant with our beautiful son.

Quite An Attachment by FreeThinker

In 2006, I started dating a guy named Alan. We were the perfect couple and had never had any issues. In May of 2008, I decided that I wanted to work with the Dark Mother, Hecate. I was born and raised Wiccan, so I had a great deal of background in the Craft. I obviously was not ready for such a leap...

Strange Happenings, Shadows And Kisses by pondering

Hobo Ghost by boogoosttella124

A year ago I was with my sister and her friends walking down our dirt road when I saw this hobo sitting on the ground with his back against a tree. It's not unusual to see a hobo in our county, but not down our road. So I whispered to my sister,"There's is a hobo over there." She responded, "What ...

Ghost Girl by boogoosttella124

I have a house that was built about five years ago. In the woods there are these mounds. I did some research and found out they are Native American burial grounds.

Possible Ghost Attack? by freckle0328

Hey, I'm a bit freaked out about what's been happening at my boyfriend's place, and I'm really confused if my last experience was possibly just my imagination or an actual encounter with a spirit of some sort.

Asking To See Others by bette31

lthough this is not a scary story, I need some help. I have always heard that if someone has passed that before you go to sleep at night you can ask God to let you dream of them. There is a reason for me asking help from the contributors of this sight as I have read a lot of posts that some of you ...

First Encounter With a Little Blue Orb by Pandaotaku

Before I tell you the story, just let me tell you: If you think that ghosts aren't real, please don't post rude comments. No comment will change my mind about what I saw and hear with my own eyes and ears. Call me crazy and stupid, but I will not change my mind. Also, I'm not one to lie to my friend...

Making His Presence Known by Laxe

This "haunting" took place in an apartment that my Mom and Dad were sharing in Hampton, VA. My dad had died back in October 1994 after developing complications after heart bypass surgery.

Corner Shadow by LPeezey

Try to bear with me, this is the first time I've really talked about this. The sequencing might be a little messy. Lets see, I've had experiences all through my life.

Old House Haunting by zack1392

Back again, but this story is different from my auditorium story. When I was around 4 years old I was living in a house which isn't that far from where I live now and isn't far from my high school.

Origins of the Forest Elemental by deathcipris

To fully understand this story, please read my first story Elemental of Forest. It was about November 2006 now and I have gained a close friend.

The Elemental of Forest by deathcipris

We conversed through class and carried our conversation on outside. Right as we were about to depart my friend brought up w...

Haunted Auditorium by zack1392

To start off I go to this high school. I'm not going to release its name because the reputation of the school is bad enough and it doesn't need a ghost story. Back in ninth grade I started as a techie (technical theatre) so I would be up in the light booth working on lights and sound. One day I'm si...

New Apartment Adventures by lazria

Now that I got the old apartment out of the way, it's time for the events in my current apartment.

My Old Appartment Haunting by lazria

Let me start off by stating that I have lived in what could be considered haunted houses on and off my whole life (currently 31), including both of the apartments I moved into upon leaving my parent's home.

Scary Retirement Homes by Janique

I work at a retirement home and I like it, but there are just so many people talking about how they have had ghostly encounters. I always said, if I don't see it I don't believe it.

That Day I Started to Believe in Ghosts by Dragonmom

The Two Little Boys of Williamsburg, Virginia by TryToFigureItAllOut

We went to in the beginning of the summer to Williamsburg, Virginia, as some of you ghost hunters or experts know, that's where the "Scar...

My Grandma by torig1230

This is short, and this stuff hasn't happened to me, but my mom. She doesn't think anything of it, but my stomach flips whenever I think of it. It doesn't help that I'm home alone right now, either. Yipee. I've lived here all my life (12 years), in this (hopefully) normal house. About four or five y...

What Happened to Me? by Colleen813

It was late one night and I felt like I could connect with a spirit. I just had a strange feeling, but I was ready for this to happen. I always felt that I could open up and be a medium, I just never really believed. I thought it was made up or something terrible would happen. It must have been arou...

A Ghost? Or my Imagination? by haunted

Slave Girl at the Foot of my Bed by Pam

Very early on Tuesday morning, July 16, I awoke suddenly for no good reason. There was no noise, no movement, nothing at all that had disturbed my slumber.

Knockings at the Bedroom Door by PrissyChick247

How do I explain what I experienced this morning. My nerves are still shot, but I will try. I spent the night at my boyfriend's house. We had just went to bed around 2.am last night.

The Old Civil War Hospital and the Old Indian Burial Ground by Ceary

Well Hello Everyone! When I was 14, I had a friend who experienced a lot of supernatural experiences.

My Cat Shuby by windsong

I've always been a cat lover and have had cats since I was very young. I had a cat named Shuby. She was as sweet as could be with her plaintive little meow.

A Laugh that is not Mine by windsong

My name is Amanda, and I'm 14. I've never considered myself a particularly extraordinary person, but I seem to be living in an extraordinary house.

A Spirit that Likes to Scare Me by Ciel

This happened while I was younger.

Medium Experiences by msmeghan2

When I was little and I was in class, I felt like there was a ghost behind me watching every thing I was doing.

Schools Ghouls by dmtm

I go to this creepy high school. Everyone knows it's haunted, there's a girl and a guy in a black coat. They did a show about it on X-files. I'm not a big fan of the supernatural ever since Dollie (she's in my other story). I prefer to ignore things like that. Well, I was heading for class from the ...

Phone Call From Beyond by Zelora

I had a friend, Carol, who was dying of cancer. Her husband called to tell me she was in hospice - meaning the end was very close.

A Christmas Visitor by misty millner

About 8 years ago, when I was 5 (I am now 13), I lived in this house which was believed to be haunted.
