Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

My Lost Child and Peter

I have a 5 year old daughter, that is a twin. When I was pregnant with her and her fraternal twin, a boy, he died in utero.

I remember my daughter was a very difficult baby, and since she was my first, it was very stressful. She came out of me screaming and it seemed she never stopped until she was about three months old. The doctor just said she had colic (gas). Well, she is a wonderful child now (And really she always has been, it’s just the first months were very difficult).

When she turned two, she started babbling in baby talk to the walls in various houses. When she was finally able to start making more and more words, she would still randomly “talk”. Once while at my husband’s sister’s house, we were all downstairs watching a football game, when my daughter went up the stairs about halfway, sat down, and started playing pat-a-cake… with nobody.

We …

Bizarre Face Captured in Photo

Here is a really bizarre looking picture that was captured by accident.

A man that I know found a strange looking fungus growing in the yard and took some pictures of it with a Kodak digital. He sent a few of them to me and asked if I could identify the fungus or if I had ever seen anything like it before. Turns out it was a common type of fungus but there was something not so ‘common’ about one of the photos.

When I looked at the pictures I noticed something very strange in one of them. I’m not saying this is (or isn’t) paranormal but I thought people would be interested in seeing this. There appears to be a bizarre looking face in the picture! It is possible that it is nothing more than an optical illusion but it’s very interesting nonetheless. I can see the eyelid, eyebrows, the outline of the jaw and even a nose and …

Haunted Basement and the Ouija Board

Hello our names are Alex  and Chelsea. A few summers back when we were children, about 11 or so, we visited our friends beach house for a week. Not knowing the people that owned the house, only knowing their sister (our close friend) had allowed us to stay there for free, because money was tough at the time.

Arriving at the house we were excited to find out we had the whole basement to ourselves. Later that afternoon, while we were unpacking we heard clashes and bangs, but we decided that perhaps it was just our imagination, or the pipes (seeing that the house was sort of old). The basement was very dark and had little light, no windows, but it did have a small doorway to another compartment that we later found out was the living quarters of the recent owner’s wife who was very sick with cancer and had passed away years before our vacation. The owners had …

The Freaky Man

When I was five years old, after my parents split up, my dad my sister and I moved to Australia and moved in with my Nan and pop. As I remember the house as being very big, spacey and cold. Even when it was really hot outside. I also remember being so terrified of the garage.

When I was ten I was kicking ball around the background with my younger cousin the ball flew past my head and rolled into the garage so I ran my fastest in there to go grab it but it rolled all the way to the back of garage. I walked cautiously in there and I remember a man standing at the back of the garage next to the ball. I remember him being really tall and a really pale scary face. I ran straight out of there screaming.

For months after wards I kept having terrible dreams of that man and I was that …

What’s Going on Here Poltergeist?

Alright, this all started when my family moved in to my new house when I was about 8. I was put in a small room and I quickly didn’t like it one bit. I had no idea why but it was completely awful for me to be inside of there. I would wake up every night for no reason at all. I hated to be in that room. I was scared to be in that room without a light on. Eventually my mom decided to build an attachment onto the house for her bedroom, I got her old room.

They had been taking pictures of the old, probably 200 year old, flooring underneath the house. I was looking at the pictures on my ipod. I noticed that there weren’t just pictures of the room, but I noticed apparitions in the room. There was a dog in the room, a face of a hound dog, maybe a mutt. It kinda looked …

Haunted House on Long Island

I have a cleaning business / snow removal business. One of my clients for both businesses lives in a home here on Long Island. It is a very large house with an even larger back yard. The yard is neat and well taken care of with tall trees here and there. There is a swamp behind all of this.

When I was on a snow removal job about three years ago, I went around back to shovel the steps leading to a tenants apartment. As I was 1/2 way down I saw a bright wavy light, probably about eight feet tall or more behind one of the trees in the far left corner of the yard. It seemed to move from tree to tree working it’s way up to me. All of a sudden BAM it was there and I dropped the shovel and ran to the side where my partner was.

My heart was pounding and I told him …

My Parent’s Rental House

This happened in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. A couple of years ago, my husband and I were having a really hard time, so I moved in with my parents for a couple of months. They were renting this house in the oldest section of town, right around the corner from one of the oldest houses in the DFW area. Well this house was built in the 70′s, but had recently been remodeled. Anyway, so there was often weird things in the house, like cold spots, and strange happenings.

One time, my little brother said he was sitting in the living room listening to music and heard a noise and so he looked down the hall, and saw me leave the room I was staying in, and go to the bathroom. Well he said about five seconds later I left the same room, (as though what he had seen didn’t really happen) and went to the bathroom, and I said, “wow …

Weird Things may Happen at Anytime

It’s actually events and stuff that I have heard or seen until now. It usually happens when I am at home alone.

1. Once my father had left to see his girlfriend but I didn’t know. It was a very cold winter day so I enter fast and sat a while on my stairway. That’s when I heard an old man’s rusty voice saying “Dena, Dena. Come upstairs quick!”. I figured my dad had a cold so I took off my boots quickly and ran upstairs. I walked down my hallway and a gust of wind blew (no window’s open in winter by the way), when I got to my dad’s room and saw he wasn’t there I called for him but no answer. I stood still to hear walking or some kind of noise since sometimes I call his name and he doesn’t answer, but no noise. It was pretty freaky.

2. We went my sister, my mom and …

Ouija Board Prediction

My bestfriend Chris and I were hanging out with some of our buddies. We were all sitting around the TV being bored and trying to find something to do, so randomly Chris starts to talk about this ghost/spirit living in his closet.

At first I was a real skeptic but then he said he had a way to talk to it with a pendulum, so out of natural curiosity we started to use the pendulum he had made. We started to ask it simple questions like “are you male?”, etc. and the pendulum seemingly worked with yes or no questions. But I still doubted until we started to try and reword questions and the pendulum would not move at all only on those certain questions, we basically spent our entire night messing with this pendulum. In my mind the pendulum only brought curiosity, so I started to research ways to contact spirits (Ouija, etc.) and decided to buy a board …

The Haunted Cabinet

It all started when we moved into a new house, when we were re-modeling our new house we found an old cabinet. My mom and dad had it in their room, then a few weeks later all this weird stuff started to happen.

When I went to school, my mom would go to work and my dad would stay home. When I come back from school my mom would come home and my dad would go to work. When he left there would be foot steps running across the landing, and I would be in the kitchen, that’s when my mom calls me and asks if I was up stairs but I kept saying no. My dad came home and you would hear foot steps going across the landing again. When my dad comes in he would ask me if I was up stairs in the window. At this point I thought they went crazy, or just seeing things.

But …

Mom and Dad are Still There

My story begins shortly after my mother passed away in January of 2007. Both of my parents had been in failing health for a long time and we were finally forced to put them into a very nice assisted care facility in Ohio. Shortly after they moved in my mother passed away due to complications of heart failure in the early part of January of 2007. My father was very distraught over her death as they were very devoted to each other and had been married for 64 years. Just one month after my mother died my father passed away in February.

When we arrived at the facility where he was still staying the staff told us that he had been talking to my mother all day the day before he died, we found this to be very comforting to know that she had come back to be with him in his final hours. My parents had requested to be …

Haunted House on Mahe Island

I was 12 when my mum announced that we were moving. see I live in the Indian Ocean on a small island of Seychelles called Mahe. We were moving from a residential area where all my friends and close cousins lived to go live in a bigger house on the mountains because my baby brother had just been born and we needed a bigger place.

The first time I visited our new house it gave me the creeps, I told my mum how much I hated it but she only taught I was looking for a reason to complain about her moving me. I tried coping with the place when we moved in I really did. When I started Hearing noises and screams every single night I freaked out. I didn’t tell my mum anything because she already had enough on her plate and I told myself that it was just my mind playing tricks on me. I stayed up …
