Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

This is my second story on trueghosttales.com. My first story was called Is My Grandmas House Haunted? I would like to remind you that nothing in my stories are made up or exaggerated in any way. These are my real experiences. Coincidence? Who knows. That’s for you you to find out.

My story begins about a year ago. I have been living in the same house for about 15 years now. Nothing strange really started to happen until I turned 14. I’ve been obsessed with the paranormal for as long as I can remember and there is nothing I enjoy more than a good ghost story.

I had an older iPod handed down to me from my brother. Other than a few scratches it was still in good condition. During the day after I got home from school, I would put the iPod on my dresser in my room. At night I would take it into the bathroom because that’s the first place I go in the morning to brush my teeth so I knew I wouldn’t forget it. Late one night, I was sitting on my bed doing homework. Everything was quiet. suddenly, out of nowhere, my iPod turned on full blast playing a song I wasn’t listening to when i turned it off. I didn’t think much of it. I assumed it was an alarm on it my brother set when it was his. I went over and shut it off. I laid it back on the table and went back to doing my homework. A couple minutes later it went back again. This time, playing a different song. This time I was a little uneasy about it but I didn’t want to pay too much attention to it. I just put it in the bathroom for the morning.

I’ve had different experiences each night. Sometimes my radio would turn on out of nowhere, or I would see something in the corner of the mirror. Occasionally my room would get really cold. I have these bamboo bead curtains in the room that hang down from my shelf. If something moves them you can tell because you can hear them raddle. I would be laying in my bed on the verge of sleep and all of the sudden hear them move. It would be just me in the room. When I would look over, they would be shaking like someone moved their hand across them. I would also hear strange noises. I can’t even begin to explain to you what they were.

My mom and I like to talk about our experiences with each other. I was telling her about a story I had when no one was home. I was sitting on my couch downstairs. I only have 2 dogs and they were both with me. Right above the room I was in is mine and my brothers bedrooms. Suddenly I heard someone walking around upstairs. It didn’t bother me at first because I thought someone was home. Then it accrued to me, the footsteps were coming from my room. I thought my brother was snooping around so I went upstairs. No one was up there. When my mom heard the story she had a nervous look on her face. She told me she experienced the exact same thing.

One day, my mom was taking my brother and I out for lunch and my mom and I were talking about ghosts again. My mom asked my brother if he’s ever experienced anything and he said nothing. Other than the fact one time he was taking a shower and the lights dimmed and my iPod started playing full blast out of no where. I knew exactly what he was talking about..

I’ll never know what really goes on in my house. I know some people may say there’s an explanation but I believer there’s only one thing behind all of these events.
