Incubus Attack?
My names Amie,I’m 18 from Worcester, England, UK.
This all started happening to me about 6 months ago. I was at my home in bed asleep then I woke up randomly in the middle of the night. I couldn’t move a muscle in my body or open my eyes. I was like paralyzed! Or all of my energy was drained from me. I was wide AWAKE, it wasn’t a dream or me imagining it.
I started to feel someone stroking my hair sitting on the edge of my bed near me. I couldn’t see anyone but I could just feel the presence. I then felt this really heavy weight/pressure on my chest almost like someone was sitting on me or pushing down on my chest. I wasn’t able to speak or move! The only thing I was able to do was breathe but that was a struggle because of the pressure on my chest. I then started to feel a …

When all the paranormal thing had started happening to me I was only 6, when my great grandfather had died, he came to say goodbye to us. When my grandmother asked me who I was talking to I said ”That man that is sitting on the tree.” My grandmother asked me to tell her what he looked like and when I did she told me who it was.
Now I am 14 and I am still experiencing odd things. When I was just 7 I was living in my old house in Greece. An old woman was said to have died there. Every night I would hear walking in the living room, whispers, lights turning on and off, and I could also hear the old woman open drawers and take medicine! It was spooky but somehow didn’t frighten me. But after that I started getting these dreams that God was fighting with Satan, and God one every time. But the …

Did a ghost try to communicate with me about her death?
Okay It First started out when I moved to an apartment were I use to live when I was a little girl. We moved in into our uncle’s house and the second week we had stayed there I had a nightmare.
I had a dream about this little girl who got stabbed more than 5 times in the chest. At first I felt like I knew this girl for more than my life. She had shown me her death and who had killed her. My mother thought it was because I read too much ghost stories, but I knew it wasn’t that reason I had that nightmare. I started crying and crying a lot feeling like she wanted me to feel her pain and that she wanted revenge. But why revenge on me? What did I do to HER?
Later on a few weeks pasted by and I kept …
Read Complete Story Here...Woman in the Stairs
I just want to share my experience. I am Filipino. And paranormal creatures are very rampant in our country. I guess you’ve heard about white ladies, tikbalang (half-man half-horse), aswang (lady that goes out at night to prey), etc.
This particular experience gives me goosebumps whenever I think about it (I’m having goosebumps now)
One night, when I was alone in our house because my grandparents were in a church gathering, I was watching television. The mirror in the kitchen was adjacent to our living room, and from the living room, I can see the reflection of our stairs. While I was enjoying watching cartoons, I made the mistake of looking at the mirror, and in the mirror, I saw a woman or maybe it was girl, upside down. Her skin had the color of like what zombies look like. She was as if staring at me from the mirror though her eyes were all white. I froze for I …
Read Complete Story Here...Losing My Sanity Who Are You?
I am now nineteen years old but when I was 15 unusual things began happening to me. At this age I began doing research on communicating with ghosts and I also was very much into witchcraft. I would sit in my room and try and perform different rituals while speaking out loud to any entities that might hear. I did that for a couple of weeks and so when nothing big happened I gave up. I don’t know exactly what I was expecting to happen but months later when things began to happen I wished I could take those weeks back.
First it started with hearing things like water running when I was home alone or I would hear mumbling. After that I began seeing things like shadows. One night I was in the family room listening to music when a black form floating shot across the room in front of me. Other things started happening after that like I …
Read Complete Story Here...Trying to Find Who I Was in My Other Life
Well first of all I am amazed with what I just read. Since I was little I been having battles with different types of spirits and demons: last year I have met with Lucifer and part of me wanted to go with him and part of me was just hearing God’s voice telling me to keep strong and not follow him. Since then I have no peace and I decided to study and look for helpful information about who I am and what do I stand for in this life.
And just reading about the creation of 2 women in the beginning of this world – I really feel I am Lilith (I believe in reincarnation) and I am sure in my past life I was her and in some point part of her is still inside of me because I am a really free spirit who does not follow rules. I hate to be submissive (that’s why in my …
Read Complete Story Here...Case 28 Demonic Activity in Coxsackie New York
The year was 1989. I was only 19 years of age. The location was in Coxsackie New York. It was a cool summer night. I was with my mother on a case that the client explained to be one of a demonic presence. There were 4 of us total. The time was approx. 8pm.
We were waiting for Ed and Lorraine Warren’s arrival. The house was not to old but old enough to have a feeling about it. We were talking with the clients of the home outside at a picnic table set up in the backyard. The homeowners were very scared and had a draining look on their faces as if this has been going on for some time.
The Warren’s showed up and everyone sat outside as Lorraine went inside with my mother to feel the house. They were inside for about 1 hour. When Lorraine and my mother came back outside you could see worry in Lorraine’s …
Read Complete Story Here...The Hallway Ghost
I’m stretched out on the couch channel surfing at my Aunt and Uncle’s lake house. I was 15 years old and visiting for the summer. The encounter occurred during the work week in the early part of the afternoon. My little cousins were at Vacation Bible School and their parents were at work, so I had the place all to myself.
The couch was located against a wall and my feet were on the end of the couch cushion just over a meter from the television, which set to the left for “prime lounging on the couch viewing pleasure”. The T.V. was up against another wall and was sitting a couple of feet to the right of the entrance into the hallway, which ran the same way I was facing. From where I was lounging I had a 45 degree viewpoint of the entrance into the long dark hall. I could only see about a meter into the hall. The …

OK, I’m 19 and all my life I have seen things that I should not see. Me and three of my sisters, its five of us and now one of my brothers its three of them eight of us in total. Some people call it a gift, I call it a curse.
So about 4 years ago I stop being in touch with God like how I used to be. I was 16 when I had the first dream. I woke up from my sleep and I don’t know why but my heart was racing and I felt so scared more scared than I have ever been and I felt like there was something holding me down so I started to move. I couldn’t! I tried to scream to my sister laying in the bed next to me I couldn’t so I started to pray to God and ask for help and as soon as I did it was over …
Read Complete Story Here...A Savior
I have always been skeptical of ghosts and even after these events I would say I am still not a true believer. However I am not a person to simply dismiss fairly strong evidence so I have decided to put it to a community who could help me make sense and maybe give clarity of such events.
It first happened back when I use to live in Cornwall miles away from any other people or towns in 2008. I lived alone as my wife worked a high power job and would spend weeks away from home. During this time I was going through boughts of depression and in June it reached its climax.
Sick of life I went into our barn and got a piece of rope and tied it to the rafters. However when tying it and putting it around my neck I made some mistakes and when I jumped it failed to kill me instantly. I hung there …
Read Complete Story Here...Hooded Being and Sleep Paralysis
My name is Kenyatta. I just had to send a comment on what happened to me. I never was the kind of person who believed in paranormal stuff but I found out that paranormal things do happen.
When I use to read stories and see people on TV talking about ghost encounters and all that kind of stuff, I would just brush it off like that’s not true. Well I had a visit from a hooded being at the end of my bed about two years ago.
My cousin was dying from AIDS, My mother was diagnosed with cancer. My grandmother passed and also my uncle. All of this was happening months apart. Well again this being was at the end of my bed. At first I was asleep and when I woke I couldn’t move, I couldn’t talk or nothing. I’m very very sure I was not dreaming because I was looking all over my room I can smell …
Read Complete Story Here...Psychic with a Horrific Past
I’m an 18 year old with visions.
The disturbances first started when I was around eight or nine years old. I was living in my grandmothers house in a place called Campbellstown, it is located inside a city. People say that its haunted because there is a graveyard there. My house was two roads away from the graveyard, however, I do not believe that this graveyard has anything to do with the encounters. I’m sorry if I’m wandering but all the above info is relevant.
My elder sister, who is a year older than me, had the first experience. One day as she and I were sitting in our room (she was ten and I nine I think), she told me that last night she heard a knock on the window. I never believed her because I always fell asleep before her so I thought she was a bit crazy to suggest that, so she told me that she would …
