Haunted Darwin Australia Part 2
Having already accepted a presence in my Darwin house we have christened ‘Kevin’ (see previous stories) which I had sensed since moving in, my son had seen and a sensitive friend had confronted to ‘back off’ after Kevin tried to climb into bed with me, my daughter had seemed immune.
My daughter, Nea had complained of feeling “creeped out” in the house and her bedroom. I suggested she ask her grandfather to come and watch over her. After Nea did this and an apparition of a man in a hat with a tailored outline suggesting a suit (my grandfather’s classic hallmark – see previous stories) appeared on her bedroom wall, Nea admitted she felt OK in her room now (if no where else).
Yesterday, Nea (being a typical teenage younger sister) tried to get her older brother Aaron in trouble and it back fired on her terribly. Aaron has often been seeing Kevin around the house, particularly at …
Read Complete Story Here...Red Face and Black Eyes
I was recently extremely ill and unable to eat or even keep water down for 10 days, so was bed bound for most of it. We already know we have a spirit of some sort in our home, but this was totally different to anything I had experienced before.
The fourth day in my bed about 4 pm I started to hear a static crackling in the background and as I looked around my room I saw what looked like bronze thin tentacles in two places hovering on the ceiling. As I watched they changed shape several times and briefly took on human form with faces of women. The tentacles reached out for me and when they touched me I felt a sticky tingling. I thought I was hallucinating through lack of sleep and food, coupled with the fact I take opiate painkillers, so I told them to leave me alone and they seemed to just fade away.
That night …
Read Complete Story Here...Omemee Ontario Haunting
Lately a couple things have been going on. Just little random things really…
1) I sit in my living room alone a lot and watch TV until very late. Whenever the curtains seem to be open I hear knocking and I ignore it but it continues. I checked once in the morning to see if it could be anything outside but there are no trees nor bushes near the window. Also, we live in an old farm house in the middle of no where so no one could be out there constantly doing this. As a test I shut the curtains one night and heard nothing. Opened the next time and the knocking continued. When I look out the window nothing is there.
2) My bedroom seems to have an eerie feeling something. You will feel someone get into bed with you (I live with my boyfriend at my parents home and we both can feel it) we’ve been ignoring …
Read Complete Story Here...Ghosts of the Wood Apple Tree
This story is one that is very famous among the old people of the place where this takes place. As the place is very famous I shall not mention any names.
The family of my maternal grandmother was a very rich and politically important one. Only princesses which remained in India were married to the sons of that family. One such princess was my maternal grandmother’s grandmother. She was not only from a royal family but also a very spiritual person. It is said that when she entered her place of worship (built specially for her), the bells use to ring by themselves. She could be seen talking to Krishna, the one she was devoted to. She would be immersed in her prayer so much so as she would even forget that she needed to eat and sleep. She was married into this family to the only son of a politician. The house was basically a fort with over a …
Read Complete Story Here...The Spirit Who Loves Red
Well, to start off, I’m in my mid teens presently and this is a personal paranormal experience that has happened recently within the last two to three months.
I am not a gullible teen, nor a faker, and I completely believe in the paranormal, though I do show a lot of skepticism to different stories at times. I do know quite a fair bit about the paranormal, what I choose to believe and what I don’t, but for the sake of not starting arguments or having someone prove my knowledge wrong, I wont try and name what this exact paranormal experience is. You may not find it to be paranormal at all, but I am pretty certain it is. This story may be long, but I hope you read it and I hope someone can either relate to it, or gain an understanding from it, whatever that may be. Well, here goes:
At the moment, I live with my Nan …
Read Complete Story Here...Hauntings at the Old Family Farm House
The two story house was built in the late 1800s by my grandfathers grandfather. He lived there with his wife and seven kids who lived to have families of their own but they had five or six kids die between 1 day to 12 years old. When my grandfathers aunt died 18 years ago he got the house and already took care of a farm and cows. But my grandfather got sick so my dad and mom went there to take care of the cows and clean it up some and stayed two nights.
They heard foot steps walking up and down the stairs most of the night. My mom said something rubbed her leg and called her names, she turned over and he dad was facing the other way asleep. Sometime during the night my dad rolled over and not long after that heard breathing right behind him and he up and got his gun and went back to …
Read Complete Story Here...Me and My Boys Ghost Stories
Aight im B. Steady and I’ve seen, heard, and experienced some crazy stuff. My first memory I have was my apartment in flames. I was three and all I really remember is explosions and screams. My parents told me I burned it down. I just remember being angry. I remember setting my mattress on fire with a lighter that ironically my brother taught me how to use the exact same day.
Anyway when I was around nine I was confronted by a dead soul. My grandmother’s house is haunted for sure. I remember every year dreading the nights in the ghostly hours of midnight to three. She owned the creepiest grandfather clock that I swear was a portal to the other side. The dead. I would wake every night to a confrontation. Sometimes creaky footsteps getting closer to my room.
One particular time, seconds after the strike of three, the microwave starts cooking out of nowhere. I couldn’t stay in …
Read Complete Story Here...Out of the Corner of My Eye
I will never forget the day I began to see them. I would be doing something, anything, and I would see something out of the corner of my eye. In truth, it wasn’t something I was seeing, but someone.
Once it was a woman, standing in my front yard as I walked through the living room. When I did a double-take, as if understandable, she was gone. Another time, it was the black shape of a man, standing in my friends kitchen. When I told my friend and her family what I had seen, they all went quiet, and then told me: “You must have seen Grandpa, he died in this house, in fact, right where you said you saw him, we have a picture of him standing.”
Seeing them proved not to be enough, I began to hear things, whispers, footsteps, doors slamming, breathing and other things I could not explain. I spent most of my time at home …
Read Complete Story Here...Night Time Haunting I Need Advice
I’ve known for a while my house has been haunted. When we moved into it, when I was about 11 years old, I took the upstairs bedroom, my little brother took the main floor, and my parents retired to the basement. Now I’m 18 and my parents have gone on a two-week trip, which means I’m left here to watch my brother who is now 11.
A year ago, he made me trade bedrooms with him because he was having trouble sleeping at night. I used to go downstairs to sleep with him because I’d hear him yelling or crying. The very second I would walk into the room, the activity always stopped. He’s claimed to have seen a solid white figure, to have been touched, and to have been generally bothered by noises throughout each night. I’ve also had a couple of experiences while sleeping in his top bunk when he was too afraid to fall asleep.
My brother …
Read Complete Story Here...Common Sense or Something More?
Hi, I’m Sam, I’ve posted a story on here before about ghosts but this isn’t a ghost story, more a question which I’m desperate to have answered.
First of all you should probably know that I have told very few people this, in fact I’ve only ever told my little sister, so here goes.
Every now and then, I have these things, they’re like premonitions I guess but they’re not, its more like a really strong felling that something is going to happen, like common sense but different. The first time it happened was about a year ago, me and my sister were playing with Mungo, our dog and my step-dad had a glass of beer on the table. I got a feeling that it was going to fall over, and before I could do anything it was on the floor staining the carpet. At first I thought it was just common sense but then it happened again, later that …
Read Complete Story Here...Demonic Entity Experiences
Ever since my first possession, in the year 1996 or 1997 I have been experiencing strange feelings, presences, voices and visions. The issue is, I was possessed by some entity for two weeks between 1996 and 1997, but this demon/entity left and released control. It said (to me in my head) that it’d be back. (I am assuming the entity is a male), so I’ll call him a “he”.
Every year when coming up to my birthdays I get these feelings of the presence of it being around. I hear demonic faint voices saying strange things. I see visions of the underworld (whether or not that’s actually possible, but it seems like I am seeing these visions from the entity/demons eyes) and it’ looks really big, hot/warm, red and flame-type thing. I cannot describe it. I have meet really tired/sleepy, going into a daydream (whilst thinking or daydreaming I am unable to move at all) I cannot move my eyes, …
Read Complete Story Here...They Come in all Sorts of Disguises
Hello it’s Me Crystal again, so nothing has recently happened to me but today I was just thinking about past activities. I never noticed how one can be connected to paranormal activity and never even know.
When I was younger, about 3, my parents divorced, my dad got custody of me and my older brother Isaac. My mom on the other hand decided to become a truck driver. She would go all around the states and also to Canada delivering I don’t know what. But I remember that I always used to miss her and would think of her all the time.
Well one day I was calling her in my thoughts because I hadn’t talk to her in a while. At the time she was in Wal-Mart and heard my voice calling her. Maybe it could’ve been another little girl but she said it sounded exactly like my voice and was right near her ear. My mom has told …
