Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

Haunted Darwin 5

Having had my previous experiences printed here and currently living in an army defense home, where I can’t really have my problem with an entity we have christened “Kevin” solved by a defense maintenance call (see previous stories) I find people now tend to volunteer to tell me their paranormal ‘stories’.

These were told to me by a woman I catch the bus with this morning.

My friend and her husband were preparing a BBQ in the house they only lived in a few months. Her husband was a skeptic, where my friend was more open minded. She had felt the house was a touch ‘weird’ since moving in but the husband thought her feelings were all a lot of phooey and dismissed them!

As he stood outside on the veranda working at the BBQ he felt a tug on his shirt, thinking it was his wife he turned and realized he could see her preparing salad in the kitchen. …

Spirit Loose in Mobile Home?

I live in a mobile home and in, what is now, the computer room, a marine killed his wife in the middle ’80′s. I have experienced a medium sized shadow. It’s always a side view and it’s sloop shouldered. It comes from my left, like walking through the front window. It continues on until it’s behind me. I wouldn’t look until one night, I got really irritated and swirled my chair around to face it but there was nothing there.

In my bedroom, I read before going to sleep and always lay on my right side. On more than one occasion, I’ve felt like someone sat on the foot of my bed. From mid calf to my feet would sink down as soon as this happened. One night, not too long ago, I sat up and told it to go sit somewhere else. I have not experienced it since.

My husband, who had fell asleep on the sofa was awakened …

Civil War Era House in Maryland

My aunt and uncle were living in a Civil War-era house, in Maryland, when my cousin Gary Lee was born in 1987. I found the house incredibly creepy (I was seven at the time) and did not like the “feel” of the house. I sensed a somewhat lonely and unhappy male presence there. They didn’t live there more than a year.

My aunt had two ghostly experiences in the house. One time she was taking a bath upstairs. She heard footsteps outside the door, saw the shadow of feet as you would normally and assumed it was her husband, Gary, wanting to use the bathroom or something. But he went away without saying a word. When she got done, she went outside and told him he could have come in the bathroom, she was just taking a bath. He looked at her with a puzzled glance, since he had been building a rock wall outside the whole time and had …

Strange Experience in the Bermuda Triangle

Has anybody ever had this experience? I really need an explanation, it has bothered me since it happened.

Last July 12, 2009, my husband, sister and brother in law were on a cruise from Ft. Lauderdale to Key West. Late that night I looked at my cell phone and the date said Nov. 13, 1999. We should have been somewhere in the very western part of the Bermuda Triangle according to the maps I’ve researched.

The next morning in Key West it was back to normal July 13, 2010. I have a pretty new phone, it didn’t even exist in 1999. This date in 1999 was a few months before my dad died in an accident that could have been prevented.

My sister and I talked about it and decided to try to make a call if it did it again while we were coming back. Sure enough when we came back 4 days later it happened again the night …

Followed by Spirits

First it will be helpful for you to know that all their lives my dad and his sisters have been followed by demons. It all started for me when I was about 4 or 5.

When I was about 4 I used to love the story of little Bunny Foofoo. One morning at about 4:00 am I was awakened by Bunny Foofoo sitting on my stomach. Bunny Foofoo told me to jump out the window to her house in the sky. Well, we lived in an apartment at the time and we were on the top floor, so I shouted, “no”! This made the spirit mad so it scratched my neck and jumped out the window and slammed it. My parents heard the slam of the window and came running to my room, when I told them what happened they examined my neck and sure enough they found scratches. Later that day my dad told the incident to our neighbor …

Native Indian Ghost Experience in Newark Ohio

In the 1960’s I and my 5 brothers and sisters were with our mother at a place known to be native Indian. We passed Dawes Arboretum on the way there and this place wasn’t much further from it. Once there we began walking around the place to see the earthen structures. I now know this place to be in Newark, Ohio. At that time we were able to walk all over the structures. My younger brother ran ahead and rounded a corner.

Not long after that I and the rest of the family, to their horror, witnessed about 5 native Indian boys running with bows and arrows after a herd of deer! It was amazing to see this and they were as lifelike as we were. One of the boys turned and looked right at me as I wasn’t that far from he and his friends. He turned to one of the boys and said something whereupon the boy also …

Sleep Paralysis Battle for My Soul

Hi everyone! Let me start by saying I have always been a vivid dreamer, ever since I was a young child! I constantly dream throughout the night. I remember every detail, and color.

I have always had a difficult time dealing with whatever stresses I experience in my life. Whether I am arguing with my mother or my boyfriend. I always seem to work it out in my dreams, and get out what I really wanted to say! But, I always wake feeling better.

For the last 10 years or so, I have been experiencing very disturbing dreams. They don’t happen frequently, maybe once or twice a year. Some times there is a gap of a year or two, but always when I am under an extreme amount of stress.

I am being attacked physically. This… Thing, whatever it is, is not good. I cannot give you a physical description of it. It is more of a sense, or a …

My Guardian Angel

My mom’s mother and father died before I was born. My grandmother when Mom was 5 and my grandfather sometime in the late 80s early 90s. I was born in 1995, so go figure, I was never able to meet them. I’ve always heard good stories about my grandfather, Papa Gilbert. He was a sweet man and was good to my brothers.

The house I spent the first 3 years of my life in was an old farm house. My parents and siblings had lived there a little while before I was born and they had not experienced anything before either. Numerous things had happened, it sounded like rocks were falling down the stairs at night and the recliner would squeak when everyone was in bed. My oldest brother had his own room upstairs and my other two shared one and I slept in the room with my parents in my crib. Multiple times stereos went off and shadows were …

I Can Sense When Someone is Going to Die

When I was a little kid, I had almost died. My grandmother had handed me to my mother and she was too busy to see that I was being handed to her, and I fell and hit the linoleum floor pretty hard. I had to stay in the hospital for a month to make sure that everything was okay. After the month, they said it was close, but I would be okay.

One year later, my great grandmother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, and was not able to get treatment.

She moved in with us, and we had lived with my great great aunt. Camilla. So in the house it was my father, (who was kicked out due to drinking problems) my mother, my grandmother, my great grandmother, Camilla, and me. Abby (my great grandmother) was getting worse and worse everyday.

Being a child, I had NO clue that she was dying and loved to mess with her. I would …

Haunted Darwin 4

Being notorious about my experiences of growing up haunted ( see previous stories ) I find people tend to tell me things.

This paranormal story came from my Tupperware dealer.

My dealer (which sounds so sordid – but if you saw my Tupperware cupboard you would perhaps agree I have some kind of addiction!)

confided to me of two paranormal experiences she had.

One happened when her husband was away working and she was asleep in bed. She felt the bed go down beside her and initially thought it was her 12 year old climbing into bed with her after a bad dream. Opening one eye to note her presence, she was surprised to realize there was no-one there… excepting she could still feel the bed being pressed down.

Opening both eyes and being fully awake she stared at the depression in the bed which didn’t change. By now quite startled she flicked on the bedside light only to see …

Strange Breathing Sounds?

Before I begin I guess I should lay a few lines out. When I was younger I lived with my grandparents, because my mother was dead and my father was gone. Now, they left me home alone a lot, especially in my teen years, but I liked this because what teenager doesn’t, really? And it gave me time to do what I wanted. But then something strange happened.

I would usually be in my bedroom or the study, and I would hear breathing coming from my grandparents room. Now, from my understanding, two people have died in this house. My own mother (who died in the bathroom), and my grandmother’s father (I don’t know exactly where he died.) This was an old house, built in the 1940′s. I never thought it to be creepy, although to be honest, for some years after my mother died I would never feel comfortable in the bathroom she died in, so I always used …

My Out of Body Experiences

My name is Laurel-Beth, I am 21 and live in the South of England, UK.

The start of my story does not entirely coincide with ghost stories but I do indeed think that this is chilling, even for me to tell.

I have been having out of body experiences since a very young age. I know this sounds extremely far fetched, even to myself just writing it down.

The first experience I had, that without doubt I can say was an OBE was when I was 6 years old. I had a terrible accident at school. Sounds silly looking back but we had HUGE monkey bars at school. VERY high off of the ground, it was like having to climb a full size adult ladder to get to the top of these monkey bars. I was climbing my way along them from underneath in a crawling type fashion and my back and head was facing the ground (I’m not sure …
