Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

Through the Eyes of a Vampire

Vampirism is a disease unlike any other it feels unnatural and has properties that make themselves manifest physically even before the transition. Vampirism is a mutation of a disease much like a combination of Poryphic Hemophilia and Rabies, but yet, it isn’t during the first stage of the disease contraction (1 of 3), the body feels tired constantly and weak much like that of a cold or flu. At stage 2 the skin becomes pale slowly until almost white, at this point the victim is highly vulnerable to anything sharp even a cut could kill them as the blood is so thinned, and at stage 3 the victim goes into a deathlike sleep for 2 days or more (it is different for some people, for me it was 2 days) after which the person awakens feeling hungry but the most remarkable part about that first waking breathe is hearing the world come alive in an array of sounds and smells …

Our Family’s Ghostly Visitor

This story happened at a place, which I am still staying in. My husband and I we live in Long Island, New York. Since, we needed to save some money to buy our own house we have decided to move back with his parents. It has been 4 months since I move back, and both my husband and I have experience weird things happening around the house. Let start with just a month ago.

One night, while me and my husband was in our room watching TV, since it was a Friday night we do stay up quite late. If I remember correctly, it was around 1 O’clock when we heard someone knocking on our door, so my husband got up and open the door. Once he opened it, no one was there. So he was thinking oh maybe Mom or Dad was asking for something and walk back off to the kitchen. You see our room is like maybe …

Dark Hooded Figure the Unexplained

I have always been into Halloween and the paranormal even as a young child. I remember when I first started seeing signs of a possible paranormal encounter when I was about 7 or 8 years old. My youngest sister would have conversations with someone I couldn’t see. It looked like she was literally talking to the walls. I didn’t understand… and when my mother and I would try to snap her out of this conversation she would not listen, she would simply keep talking.

At the time I didn’t think anything of it. I thought maybe she was at the age where she had created an imaginary friend or something. When I asked her about it she said she had no idea what we were talking about. This continued for at least a year, then it seemed to decrease and slowly stop.

About a year later my friend had spent the night with me at my house. She slept on …

The Demon at My Door

I come from a small West Texas town. In our community there is a strong belief in “curanderas” and “santeria”.

When I was about 7 years old we resided in a trailer with my mother, my heroin addicted father, and my younger brother. My father’s habit caused him to be violent towards my mother which seemed to go on every night. This particular night my father beat my mother pretty badly, but she refused to call the police or even call an ambulance. I heard her loud sobbing that night and attempted to comfort her but she sent me to my room, and my father threatened to punish me if I went back into her room.

I went to bed on the top bunk while my brother slept on the bottom bunk. There was a door that led to the bathroom, and my mother always left the light on so that we may see where we were going in case …

Could I Have an Overactive Imagination?

I have a couple encounters. It all started when I moved into a house in Springfield, Ohio. I’m 21 now and it happened when I was around 15 – 16.

My first is when I was at my dads house for the weekend and it was around midnight. I was sitting down stairs with my dad an his wife, I got bored an decided to go up stairs to my room I stayed in while I was there. There is three rooms up stairs (a room on the rite, the middle room, and the left room.) Unfortunately mine was the one to the far left, well I didn’t turn on the light at the top of the stairs an walked through the darkness to my room an turned on my light.

The other rooms where really dark and spooky, well I was in the middle of my room just walking around trying to think of something to do when all …

Demon in Old Mirror

I’m 17 and live in a suburb in the surrounding area of Austin, Texas. I’ve seen things for as long as I can remember. Most of my paranormal contact were with ghosts. I lived in a house in the part of town that was historically where the Mexican workers lived for this rich white rancher who used to own the town. It was pretty old. Don’t know the exact year of when it was built but I had many experiences there, but none that really caused me to feel afraid.

My grandparents lived out in the country about 2 and a half hours from my house. My grandmother collected antiques. She had a dresser that had belonged to my great grandmother and was old even then. So it was built in the late 1800′s. It had a vanity mirror attached and four drawers on the sides and a long drawer in the middle of the top two. It was in …

My Scariest Encounter in Kumta

This incident took place about few years ago. I was on vacation to “Kumta”, a small town in Karnataka ,India; I stayed there at my Aunt’s place. My Aunt’s house is located near “gazni” (a series of small lakes where you breed prawns). Since I had visited there for the first time I had the curiosity to visit the place.

Let me tell you unlike me, my aunty is little bit of religious type, so she strictly forbids me to go near lakes. When I asked her the reason why? She told me that the place is not so auspicious and she cut my question there.

During night it was about 9:30 pm after dinner I set out for a walk. I still remember that day, it was full moon day, moon light made a glittery appearance to the lake waters, which in turn  made a pleasant view and the cool breeze drove me straight to gazni. There were distant …

Native American Chokehold

Last year in July of 2008, I had decided to go on a trip to Arizona by myself. It was a personal adventure, and a way for me to learn how to be more independent (I have certain phobias, and this was suppose to help shock me into not fearing being alone). I chose the mystical land of Arizona, or maybe it chose me.

From the moment my plane landed in the 107 degree oven of Arizona, I felt at home. I felt like everything was as it was suppose to be, and I was enthralled with it all. Once set up at the hotel, I was ready to start sightseeing. I hit the streets of Old Scottsdale, and came upon a curious little galleria called the Ancient Arts Galleria. It was incredible in there, and I asked for permission to shoot pictures. The curators were very friendly, and allowed me to take pictures.

I finally noticed a basket filled …

Old Haunted Church School House in the Ozarks

I am a 36 year old mother of two, and Sunday school teacher. I have had many strange experiences in my lifetime. Please allow me to point out that some of my stories are also included (with some fictional embellishments) in a children’s book I am in the process of trying to get published (Any Literary agents out there? J), but there are no embellishments in these stories. I am telling them just as I remember them.

Old Church House:

When I was a kid we would have a huge Family reunion in the Ozark Mountains of North West Arkansas (I am from SW AR.) every year. This is something we looked forward to all year since some of our favorite cousins would be there. As we got older my middle sister and I would bring friends with us.

One thing we always had fun doing was visiting a local cemetery that dated back to the Civil War. Beside the …

Black Magic and Shadow Creature at Home in the Country

I’m 22 years old and had a frightful set of experiences when I used to live in a small town in northern U.S.A. When I was about thirteen years old, my parents had decided to move out of the cities into a smaller town in the country.

The whole mess had started out bad, but nothing I considered paranormal at first. Our new home to be was a manufactured one that would be moved and set onto a new foundation on the land my parents had purchased. It was a very beautiful home. Everything was custom to what my parents and I had picked out, everything from the wallpaper and carpets to the kitchen layout. The house was similar to a trailer home in its setup. It was only one story and long. We came in through the garage which lead to an open laundry area connected to the kitchen. To the right in the kitchen was a door that …

What Was That Black Creature?

I live in Florida. I am actually an Indian but I had been living here in U.S since my birth. This strange and unusual thing happened recently with me and my friends. You may think its a lie but believe me, its not. You may find my story a little confusing so please also use your imagination.

I went over to my friend Carla’s house for a sleep over. Her parents were not home because they had gone out for an important business tour to London and so the entire house was all ours. This sleep over was of a different kind. We were helping Carla to move into her new house since her previous house has broken down at the roof. I and my friends – Lindsay, Megan, Charlotte and Kimberly also moved into her new house for a week or two to help her.

My Guilty Father

I never knew my mom and dad, my mom died when I was very young and my dad had me put with a fostering agency from the age of 4 as he found looking after me too difficult. I’m now 21 and around a year ago learned of my fathers own death, he had left me a small apartment in the city and all his possessions and the little money he had. At 20 I wanted to get into the city and though I had had nothing to do with my father for the 16 years we where apart I was and still am grateful for what he left to me.

With the help of my foster parents I moved into the apartment and began to sort my fathers things out. Most of it was chucked out, clothes I gave to the shelter and so on. I kept a few possessions, furniture, cutlery so on. One day among the trash, …
