I own a bakery in Trenton, Ohio. I have had it for about 5 years. There have been many things happen there. It started with doors opening with no one there, then we heard racks shaking. My sister was working one time and heard the bell on the front door go off and saw a woman in a white dress come in and walk across the room. She said “I will be right with you!” but when she walked out to the front there was no one there.
There have been many occasions of untying aprons and slamming the bathroom door, and boxes falling off of tables that it had to be pushed off of. One time a girl that worked for us was filling some donuts and a proof box that was unused was opened and swung hard and hit her in the rear end. One of the other ladies was frying donuts and said she saw it. Those doors on the proof box have to be pulled very hard to get them open.
Another time I was alone there and saw a man in a brown uniform walking across the room and when I stopped and walked in his direction I felt a rush of cold air go through me. The same night I was washing dishes and felt like someone was watching me. It was very overwhelming. I turned around and saw a glimpse of a woman in white. Also the same night I felt someone poking my back like they were trying to get my attention but once again no one was there.
One night my parents were driving to the shop. My dad saw a black shadow that looked like that of a man pass in front of the door on the inside of the shop. He didn’t say anything to my mom, she then looked at him and said “did you see that? There is someone in there.” He told her to stay in the car. He went inside and there are only two doors to the shop. He looked all inside and saw no one. Both doors were locked from the inside. Plus if someone had tried to go out the other door my dad would have seen them. Based on the position of both doors.
My friend and I have taken lots of pictures. We have a bunch with what appears to be orbs. She took one that really frightened us all. It appears to be a face of a demon. It is very clear. I plan on putting it online soon. One night her three year old little girl was in there. They came to pick up her check. Her little girl who has had lots of strange experiences was talking to someone and when my sister asked her who the little girl said the woman in white. She says this is her place.
Lots of us have seen a black cat, or at least a ghost of one in the shop. I wouldn’t think too much about it but almost everyone who has worked there in the last few years have had some kind of experience. It has been kinda quiet lately but this time of year is usually when it gets the most active.
The one more thing I can think of that happened was that when a family friend we hadn’t seen in a long time stopped by to see my dad but it happened to be a night when we were closed. He told me he walked up to the window and saw all the lights out but saw what looked like a man and a woman going from room to room but only saw the top of their bodies. He said at first he thought it was just some of the workers until he noticed the missing part of the bodies.

I know this is not the place to ask questions,but i’m new to the site and want to know how do i post a story,plz help.thanx alot.take care.
Linkornx – go to http://www.trueghosttales.com/submit/
oh my gosh – that is creepy! i’m sure since you’re there all the time that you’re probably used to it. hmm, i wonder the history of your shop before you owned it.
thanks for the story – hopefully you can get that photo on here soon!
take care,
your bakery sounds like it is a very busy place!! and i’m sure a great history to go with it!! great story. we would love to hear more and see some of those pics as well happy ghost hunting!!
That is awesome! The demon is scary, though. Looking forward to seeing that pic. I would like to hear more about the little girl, also.
it was kinda terrifying at first. not so much because of the things the spirits did as much as just knowing they were really there. the little girl moved to arizona. i know they have had a lot of experiences as well. they had accidentally taped a conversation the little girl had with something, no idea what, that sounded very evil. they were in the room at the time because they heard themselves talking on the tape at the time the girl was having the conversation. i didnt get a chance to actually hear the tape it somehow got erased but i know that they wouldnt lie about it. i have had a lot of personal experiences as well as has my family. my mother, who has since passed, had a very psychic connection to the spiritworld and did not like it. as for the history of the shop, we dont know a lot about it but from what we have heard it has been a gas station and possibly an old jail. the jail i am not 100 % on that one.
wow cool story!!!!
Hey, Tim! I am sorry to hear of your loss. Will you share some of your Mom’s stories? You know what’s funny? I, too, had a black cat in my old house. It was kinda funny. The neighborhood kids (and even mine sometimes) would chase what they thought was my cat and he would run through the wall or even the tub and sometimes would just vanish around the hall corner. I loved it!
thank you. my mother used to dream about deaths. it was weird because she may dream that you and i are at a funeral at your uncles house and your aunt would pass away. when she was a small child her siblings and her shared a bedroom. in the middle of the night a little black dog was up in their bed and jumping around it ran from child to child. it then ran into the living room where her parents slept. her dad got up and asked what was all the commotion and when they told him about the dog he searched the entire house and no black dog. i think it was her baby brother that died about a week later. also we had a neighbor that was really close friends with my mom. one day the womans husband called and told my mom that his wife was dead. she went out to their house and walked to the front door. the door was open and she knocked. he said come on in. when mom went in she saw a really beautiful young woman standing behind him at the kitchen table. mom thought it was the preachers wife but when the neighbors daughter was coming in the back door the woman turned to my mom smiled and dissappeared. my mom was looking and saw a picture of her friend when she was younger and saw that it was her in the kitchen. that is just a couple.
That is such a cool story. I wanna come to your bakery and buy stuff just to see if anything happens!!
we actually had some things happen last night. it was the first time in months. i got there last night and i saw a woman in a black robe. then later on the doorbell flew off the door out of nowhere and landed halfway across the room. then we saw a black smoke it went from the oven to the ceiling.
i kno wat bakery ur talkin about i live right down the road from it n will b passing it n a few bc im goin down to wher road where the hatchet man is heard its scary but i will def. b noticing ur bakery more often
awesome danielle. i have been to wehr road at night several times but never saw anything. unfortunately. you should stop in at the shop sometime. if we have donuts at night we are open. we have never had a customer say anything happened to them but u could be the first.
Tim,
I live right down from you in Trenton and am having problems in my home with some very wierd things happening which is what brought me here just looking for answers so I dont think Iam going crazy .Dont know if I should get help or just ignore it. I recorded it both with tape and voice recorder and put baby powder down just to get evidence that i was not going crazy and now iam really scared. but still trying to i guess you would say make excuses for everything thats happening . I really had no idea that Trenton had some wierd things going on.
definately trenton has a lot happening. what kind of things are happening? i mean at first we were scared but it doesnt feel like we are in danger. it almost became humorous because it seemed like it was playing pranks and just wanted to be seen. if it isnt doing anything threatening and u can live with it then i wouldnt worry. but if it seems dangerous, i would definately seek some help. i hope that helps.
You are right about one thing,,seems like its playing games. just enough to make you wander if your losing it. but we got proof on video camera and voice recorder.,,
thats cool. what does it look like? there are so many things it could be. i think we have ghosts and demons at the shop.
We played the video camera and voice recorder all night one night and and at the first hour of both, things went haywire.It was pointed at the bathroom door and the light was off then the video camera went black for a few minutes then came back on for about 15 seconds and was focused real close to the back of the recliner that it was sitting on and went black again and came back on pointed exactly in the direction where it was which was at the bathroom door, you could hear something messing with the camera. when it came back on, the bathroom light was on and something white shot really fast across very close to the camera. At the same time, the voice recorder went crazy as well. You can hear a loud creaking noise Which we thought was a door but checked it out and our doors do not creak that long. then you hear someone running very clearly and sounds like they have shoes on. then you hear a door shut loudly. and then you hear it going directly to messing with the toys which are right beside the voice recorder. Now this really got my attention so the next night I decided to put baby powder down in the kitchen away from the bathroom door so that if anyone got up they would not be walking in it. When I woke up the next morning I found bare foot prints about the size of maybe a 5 year old walking out my outside door and none returning. I opened up the door and there was baby powder under the door. this is just a few things happening. I have since quit recording because to be honest it really has me scared. About 3 or 4 nights ago I was attempting to fall asleep and I turned over towords my husband which meant my back was to the outside of the bed. I felt and heard scratching on my pillow behind my head,,,very clear. it scared me so bad I jumped up and it woke my husband… dont know whats going to happen next but I do know one thing it is happening because my daughter has witnessed it also. Every night is like living on the edge , not knowing what or if anything is going to happen.
Tim,
Any updates on that photo? would really love to see it.
have you done any research on the background of the house? the running could be children. ghostly ones that is. sorry darstarr not yet a friend has it trying to check it with his computer he has a really high def lens of some kind. im not really great on the computer. but as soon as he returns it i will ask my sister to scan it for me and we will post it.
no, have not done any research on the house but would really like to know how to go about doing that. I was kind of thinking it was ghostly kids or a kid in my house as well but I also heard what i thought was a mans whisper on my voice recorder saying ,here we go again.
so I would really like to find out about the house. there is another small room built behind the wall in the basement. there is a gap at the top where you can see it and there are old toys and old clothes in there. Its got me puzzled.
Tim,
Great! can’t wait! I know what you mean about not being great on the computer! I am the same way! I can do the basics!
wow! that room could be a lot of the problem. maybe go to the library and ask them to help you do a background on the house. they at least should tell you how. maybe when he said here we go again maybe he meant here we go agin another one to try and scare away. have you lived there for very long?
yeah,, we have lived here about three and a half years,,,I think he might have meant here we go again with us trying to catch proof of them because that was the third night we used voice recorder and video camera and it was also the last.
i been seeing shadows like someone standing behind me and fel like there is someone there but they are not. that just started happening again. it is very weird.
Is this Martins Donuts?
yes it is
that is an incredible story tim. my parents also own a bakery and i have workin there since a little kid, it would have been alot more interesting if stuff like that happened at ours. to lisa, have u posted these videos on utube because i think i might have seen it
wow i live in trenton! been in there plenty of times!!!!!! never would have guessed.
hello Tim just read your story wow what an experience! did you post your pix online yet? and if you did when and where? I would like to see them.
Have a blessed life!
i havent posted the pics yet my sister is supposed to be scanning them and posting them for me once she gets her computer working again. it is a little freaky but also is fun because i love that stuff. only one thing has really scared me and that was the demon pic we have. or at least thats what it looks like. there are even more stories i havent posted. i dont know why all these different spirits are at the shop.
