Visit from a Soldier by RedneckPirate

This story happened to me when I was 15 but it didn't seem to be evil, it seemed like it just wanted to tell me that it was there and that it was just visiting. About 2 years ago I was home alone (I have a graveyard in the backyard.) I was waken up to this loud bang coming from my room (I was on the...

Hay Barn Haunting by ajn9424

I had ruled out the possibility of ghosts when I was younger but when I grew up and the same events have been happening for the past 8 years of my life I became a believer.

Too Real to Just Be Sleep Paralysis by kristina

First, I would like to start with a simple background of the town I live in. I live in a small town in PA called Skippack.

The Ghost of 318 by kelsie

We had just moved into our new house and when we got there, it was like 11 o'clock at night so it was really dark and it wasn't fun.

Two Spirits or One? by scarlettwitch

I was unnerved to move in with my fiance when he'd first brought up the idea, but not for typical reasoning. Before my fiance and I were engaged, I lived in my own apartment, in oakland (pittsburgh) and he lived in his grandmother's old house (penn hills, 20 minutes outside of pittsburgh). I had bee...

Resolving Ghosts' Unfinished Business by Ghost_Whisperer

For as long as I can remember, I've dreamt mainly of people I don't even know. Some children, some adults, etc. They always came to just me (night or day) and would never leave me alone. At first I didn't know what to make of it all - maybe I was over imaginative or there was something wrong with me...

Our Apartment by bleck

When I was a little girl, I had an imaginary friend, like most little kids do. I called her Gena. We would play together and such.
