Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

Not Your Typical Babysitting Night

This happened about 10 years ago, so 1998!

My parents had these friends that moved to this amazing house on the island where my family cottage is. They had two young kids at the time. Madison who was maybe three and Thomas who was Ten. I had taken care of these kids plenty of time before, just not in this house.

These people are quite wealthy and as I said the house was amazing so you can imagine what the house looked like. They had this grandfather clock (which I hate), you know the ones that ring every 15 minutes! Those are spooky on there own in a huge house.

Any ways, it was late and I was putting the kids to bed after a movie. I took both kids to their rooms which were just down the hallway from each other. I went back out into the living room to watch T.V until the parents came home.

It was …

The Ghost Calling Me

I and my family were going out of town for holidays. In India where we live there are ghosts named as `soodh`. They have nine fingers and they  can transform themselves into any other human being.

We had been traveling at night on hills when our car stopped suddenly. My uncle is  pretty brave so he took a torch and told us to follow him. As  we reached a few steps away from the car my dad called me and said to come inside the car.

As I was  going to turn my uncle stopped  me to turn and I asked him why did he say that. He knew that the person in the car was not my dad because my father had not come with us. He had gone to London for his business meeting.

soon I realized it and did not turn back. That `soodh` would have killed me right at that moment. After that me or my …

The Weird Elf In My Room

The Weird Elf In My Room

Hi, my name is Jordan. Well, you might not think The Elf In My Room story is true… think again. I will tell you this true elf story.

Well on Saturday night at midnight in my room I heard weird laughs, and it came from my closet. It had kept getting worse every night, and I saw something, I’m not lieing, it looked like it was mad, and it had weird reddish yellowish eyes, and it had very long pointy ears. It was very freaky, really. It was also wearing a very weird belt. I was so creeped and scared you would not believe this. It also looked like it was skinny, and very small.

It was a terrible feeling and I was always depressed and worried to go to bed at night in my room. Once I thought I saw it holding a toy. I’m not really sure what the toy was. I …

The Baker Building Ghost

My father is a security guard at NASA Plumbrook in Sandusky,Ohio.

Both my father and I are believers in ghosts and the supernatural. But that doesn’t contribute to the thought of my father being biased. He is a very honest man and is by no means “loony” or “stupid”.

About thirty years ago, testing was being run in, as I call it “the Baker Building”. A man whose first name is said to be swept up in the sands of time had the last name of “Baker”. He was in his mid fifties when he died. He suffered a heart attack and fell down a set of stairs. I stood where he once lay dead. Chills ran down my spine and I couldn’t help but feel sadness and guilt.

One night my father was patrolling the building and heard faint music. He went to the room of origin of the rhythmic sound to discover that a radio was left on. …

Ghostly Phone Call From My Grandfather

I don’t know how scary you’ll think this story is, but for us who experienced it, it was extremely creepy.

My family and I were In the Bahamas when we got a call that our grandfather passed away. We were all devastated, especially my brother because he and my grandfather were best friends.

My brother had lost his cell phone only a few weeks earlier and coincidentally found it on the day of the wake. My grandfather as well as my brother loved electronics so my brother decided to put his pfone in my grandfathers casket.

A few weeks after, my family was emptying my grandmothers house because she was moving in to my house around the corner. Myself, my brother, and my four cousins had all gathered around each other because we were filming a short film. Its what we do for fun.

My brother got a call on his brand new cell phone, only to discover that the …

The Loss Of A Good School Friend

Back in the early 1980′s I was lodging at a boarding school for disabled children in Blackpool Lancashire. I was aged around 13 or 14.

I had many friends at this school, but there was one I will always remember. Her name was Marta. Marta was lovely girl, very friendly and we were very close. We shared a dormitory with three other girls.

One night Marta woke up crying, saying she was in pain, so I went and got a member of the night staff. After a while an ambulance came to take her to the hospital. After a week or two we were told that Marta had passed away. I was so sad.

Some weeks after Marta had passed away I was sitting in my bed reading a book. For some reason I looked over to were Marta used to sleep and she was sitting on her bed. At first I wasn’t sure of what I was seeing then …

The Kid With Red Eyes And A Demon Visitation

The Kid With Red Eyes

One night my cousins and I were playing hide-seek. We turned off all the lights except the one in the living room. My cousin was the one who was looking for us. We all decided to hide together in the kitchen.

My cousin was walking by the stairs and looked up to the other rooms. She thought my 3 year old brother was hiding upstairs by himself. So she said that she found my brother and we all said that we were hiding in the kitchen.  She was sure it was my brother up there. But then I told her that she is crazy.

Then we all went to the living room and we passed by the stairs and I looked up. When I looked up I saw a figure that was standing up with really bright red eyes and the figure stared at me and it ran away. I was thinking that I was …

The Ghost Of Black Billy

In the summer holidays last year, my grandpa and his best friend went up the highest mountain in the place that I live in. They decided since they were so old and couldn’t walk any longer that they would stay the night up on the top of the mountain. With them they took their sleeping bags, some wine, beer and matches.

That night they were sitting around the fire they had made and drinking some of there supplies. My grandpa noticed a tall, negro figure in the bushes. He thought that this figure would like to join them so they went into their tent and asked the figure to follow them.

They had some more to drink and went outside to see if the man was still there, because he hadn’t come and joined them for some company. My grandpa and his best friend saw the tall man smoking a cigar on a rock looking at the view. Grandpa said …

Haunted School In Scotland

I think my old primary school is haunted. I moved to Scotland a few years ago and as soon as I stepped into that school I knew something was wrong.

It’s an open plan school so there are no walls to separate rooms to confine events but still things only happened in particular areas. Myself and a friend were walking around the playground when suddenly we both felt very cold. Living in Scotland where its very cold any way we thought nothing of it until it happened at the height of the summer, often more than once a day.

Not long after that we were having a class math lesson and I suddenly started to shivering uncontrollably. It only lasted a few seconds, but that wasn’t the last time it happened.
When we went back after the summer holidays nothing happened for a while until one night at a brownie meeting (Which are held at the school) there was a …

Pilot Ghost In Haunted War Time Home

The house I live in is a war time home. We have found many treasures in the attic and dirt crawl space in the basement. We found a 4xsterling silver wine jug,the old fur lined pilot goggles and his wings.

Well, on with my encounter, one morning I had just driven my daughter to school, then took my son to the bus stop, by the way my husband was still sleeping.

I have to tell you about the layout of the house so you can picture it. My bedroom is at the back of the house right off the laundry room / mudroom. You walk into the laundry room which is off the kitchen, you turn left and my bedroom door is there you turn left my side door. My dryer is on by the side door, then you have the tub, then washer by the bedroom.

I was taking the clothes from the washer  putting in them in the …

My House Is Haunted By A Demon

My house is located in Mexico, and it’s still there, but I have another house in the U.S.

One time my mom left me to sleep on her bed. She went to pick up my sister from school.

Later on I woke up and I saw the bathroom door was wide open with the light on and I heard someone brushing their teeth. I got closer but, there was no one in there. Thats all I could remember.

One time, when my brother was seven years old, he went to the kitchen for something and he saw a small demon that had something white on his hand. Then, the demon saw him and smiled to him and my brother ran. He was crying with my mom, telling her he saw a demon.

Years later he explain to me about what happened to him. He told me that the  demon wanted something from the house; of the white thing he had …

Terrifying Shadow Creature

It all started one evening when I was cleaning and fixing my room, I had just moved to my sisters house. I finished fixing my new room and decided it was time for me to take a break and relax. So I decided to lay down in bed.

I was laying down but I was laying down on the side where you put your feet, my head was on that side, I had the TV on and was watching it side way’s. All of a sudden I saw one of my jeans from the closet move. I didn’t put any importance to it, when all of a sudden I felt someone was on the side of my bed looking at me.

When I turned my head, all I saw was a huge black shadow standing right on my left side. I tried to move but I couldn’t, all I could move was my eye’s and I clearly saw it move …
