Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

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.
