Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

Strange Things in My Old House

I used to live in a house with many strange going-ons. It was an old house that was situated two doors away from a graveyard.

When we first moved into the house I kept seeing a black shadow walking past the doors in the house. However I never felt frightened by this. But I also didn’t want to tell my mother or my sister as I thought they wouldn’t believe me. After seeing this spirit for about three months my sister told me that she herself had seen it as well and so we told our mother who also informed us that she too had seen it.

My little brother was born soon after and once, when he woke in the middle of the night crying his toys (which were downstairs) started playing music – it was as if something had switched them on maybe to comfort him, my mother went downstairs and turned them off. After that we would …

Philippine Ghost Story

Hi my name is Jen and I live at manila Philippines. I’m now 22 years old living with my boyfriend. Anyway, this is a real story that actually happened to me when I was staying in our house at the province. This experience happened to me when I was 12 years old right after my grandfather died.

My grandfather died of a heart attack and the whole family was in shock. Well, as for me I was only 12 and I didn’t actually have a close bond with my grand dad back when he was alive so I never actually paid too much attention to his death. Well, before his funeral we offered a mass and a small gathering to pay our respects. We celebrated it in a small chapel with his casket opened in the front of the chapel. Each one of the family members would come up to the casket to see my grandfather for the last time …

The Native Woman

I was at a wedding the day he told me this story. We were talking about some of my family leaving to Newfoundland and that we were to see a ghost tour of St Johns, the oldest city in Canada. He told us that he had seen a ghost about a week ago. Now I am a believer but have not seen anything paranormal so I was like “What” He was totally telling the truth. I will tell the story from his perspective.

I was invited to barbeque a few weeks back. I wasn’t familiar to the neighborhood. It is old and overgrown and a little spooky. Anyway I found the house and it was probably the nicest house in the neighborhood. They greeted me at the door and I walked in. We were talking for a bit and she had to go to cook the steak. I decided to go to the washroom, so I turned into the hallway …

The Peon’s Story – Dog From the Cemetery

Back in  1975 or thereabouts I spent a few weeks of the summer working as a “Peon” or casual labour hand with a team from the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture which was then carrying out a forestry inventory, the practical part of which was done in the summer, the inventory itself to last about four years.

My job as a Peon consisted in accompanying a forestry technician to a particular region of the forest called a “parcela” or parcel and there I would, for example, be told to go to a given tree and measure its trunk and take samples of its wood. I would then call out the measurements to the team leader (the technician). In all we were three teams of two men each, the leader and a peon in each one.

I found this very invigorating work after teaching English in Madrid. There were no classes in the heat of summer as all my pupils had gone …

Daddy’s Golden Rule

My 59 year old father came to live with us in 2001. He was stricken with Parkinson’s disease. He improved on new medications, and he gave me 2 heavy gold chains before he moved out to live on his own. He lived on his own until 2003 when he fell and had hip surgery and needed to live in a nursing home. He had his ups and downs, but took one day at a time. I visited him as often as I could, sometimes daily, at the nursing home, with my son. I felt tremendous guilt that I could not take care of him at our home.

My little girl has a friend named Zachary. He is a freckle-faced quiet and shy nervous young man. He plays guitar very well for a 3rd grader. He is in love with my daughter.  He does very poorly in regular public school. His mom and dad told me they couldn’t afford to send …

Bath Tub Doppelganger

I have always been interested in the paranormal and firmly believe in a spiritual aspect to our existence, but my adamant feelings on the unexplained did not manipulate what happened to me. The odd occurrence happened when I lived with three other girls in a two story house and found myself one night alone in it.

I recently adopted a puppy and my neighbors, who aged from three to nine, were his biggest fans and they were always ringing the door bell hoping to see him. I decided he needed a break from them so I brought him into my room which had a bathroom connected to it. Because I had a long day at work, I decided to take things easy and started a warm bath. After soaking in it for a few moments, I heard faint voices and movement in the living room which was only down the hall from my room. (I lived on the first floor, …

She is Possessed Too

On the first part of the other story it was about my mother in-law. Update on that: Her father died July 23, 2009 and she has not seen her sister since.

Now this story is about her sister. Her sister too used to play with this Ouija board as a young girl. This story was told to me over the weekend by my mother in law.

She said that this one day her sister went out jogging out in the country. The too lived in a ranch outside of this small town. Anyways she was out jogging, and she had been gone for a while, so hours later, their father had got a call from a friend in town, and told them that they had seen Maxine in town and that she had stopped by and got a drink of water, and that she had laid down, but that she was not feeling so good to go back, so if …

We Felt God and His Angels

Okay… first let me say that this is a completely real story and I remember it well. During this summer I decided to have my best friend Sam spend the night at my house. We were having fun all day. But then night came.

I knew Sam was deeply terrified of ghosts and paranormal things, so I joked around saying cheesy scary lines from scary movies with the lights out. I told her ghost stories and things about poltergeists. After my fun, we decide to try and sleep. Of course Sam is terrified at the moment so I have to sleep with her on my bottom bunk.

We were still hyped up on sugar and there was no way we were going to sleep. So we decided to talk about God, the Bible, angels, etc. Now we were both in Christian school and knew well about the bible, but we were very skeptical.

While we were talking about it, I …

Ouija Board Friend and Strange Experiences

The following story is entirely true, and not stretched or anything like that. One day up at my cottage, my friend Chad was telling me his stories with the Ouija board, about how it was real, and when you used it, it contacts real spirits. I didn’t believe him because I really didn’t believe ghosts of the sort, so I asked him to prove it worked.

At first he insisted he did not want to play, as some spirits follow people, or are bad, and he told me he only played it once and it freaked him out. Eventually I got him to make a Ouija board on the inside of a Budlight box.

We met a few spirits, but they all left pretty quickly, Dean, Prince, but then there was Nathan. Nathan is a good spirit I met a week ago that I know quite a lot about, but I cannot share with you as he is a “friend” …

In the room there were bunk beds built into the walls that had doors you could close on them and large locks on the side. My family thought it was odd. But we moved on and went to the next room …

The Dish Spirit aka Ouija Board

I’m from the Eastern part of the world and where we have the Ouija board equivalent which we call the Dish Spirit.

I was in the army 30 years ago and being an Officer, I stayed in the army camp with a room of my own. As the camp was pretty far from the city, the evenings can be quite boring with nothing to do but watch TV or do some readings. My camp did not have many recreational facilities for the soldiers.

One evening, being bored, I decided to take a look into my platoon’s sleeping bunk to find out what my men were doing. As I stepped into their large bunk where 30 men or more shared the place, I saw a group of them were surrounding a table. There were three seated and looked like playing ‘a game’. Being curious, I walked towards the table to find out what was the fun.

One of my men who …
