Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

Strange Protector

I’ve been surfing this web-site for a while, and have grown to really appreciate it and those who have contributed to it by their stories and comments. I’m going to attempt to share something here that I have never before felt comfortable sharing or talking about.

I loved fireworks as a kid growing up. Whenever I could, I would sneak off with a few buddies and buy firecrackers and rockets. I remember one specific night that changed my life forever. I was a 7 year old boy laying in his bed trying to go to sleep. I kept glancing at the clock wondering, “why can’t I just sleep?” My bed-side digital clock flicked to 3:00 AM and I basically thought screw it I’m going to do something. I used to hide firecrackers, rockets, and sparklers under my bed all the time. So I crawled out of bed, decided I was going to have some fun, and grabbed a handful of …

Grandma’s Haunted House in Tonawanda New York

First a little background. My Grandma and Grandpa bought their house in Tonawanda, NY around 1993 to 1994. It was to be their last move. The house was built in 1952 and is a ranch style home. It’s not one of those old houses that you drive by and just know it’s haunted by looking at it. It looks very ordinary, like all the other houses on the street, in neat little rows. Whenever we had holidays at the house, they would send us kids down to the finished basement to hang out and watch TV. None of us ever felt comfortable down there and to this day, we still talk about how much we hated that the adults sent us there.

My Grandpa passed on a couple years after they purchased the home and my Grandma lived there alone until I moved in with her briefly in 2003 (graduated college and stayed with her to find a job in …

Shadow Creatures and the Tuurnagait in the Woods

As a 77 year old man, I have lived an extraordinary life and have seen many things, but none of things that ever happened to me was as terrifying or horrific as when I spent my first summer as a 14 year old boy in the pacific northwest on a camping trip. The memory of that time still terrorizes me to this day when I think of it. I want to share my story with all of you.

It was 1946, just one year after WW 2. My father moved the family (my mother, younger sister and me) from Chicago to Washington State. My father was offered and accepted a job in the logging industry, and after the war, we all packed up everything we owned and headed out on the road together. As I recall it took us about a week. I was excited and nervous about the move we were making. Little did I know at that time …

Haunting Near The Old Well

This incident is not scary. But it throws open some questions for those who are doing research in this field and are keen to actually witness the hauntings. This took place in Maharashtra, India in a town of medium size. There is a very old well near campus of agriculture college. It is at least 150 years old and still has some water but mostly unusable. The road that passes from around few meters from the well is not in much use. Only students and sales staff for fertilizers companies nearby use that road. A friend of mine, who has taken up a rather low paying job of traveling salesperson was coming back to his hostel at around 1.00 past midnight. When he came near the well he saw a man of seventy plus, drawing water from the well and taking a bath. There was something not natural about the man. The clothes lying near him were very old fashioned …

Growing Up With Ghosts

The furthest back I can remember, is the age of three. My older brother and I were the best of friends, my youngest brother wasn’t born yet, and my parents dismissed anything strange involving my brother and I as “vivid imaginations”. But, one event in particular was all too real to dismiss as anything other than “paranormal.”

We all lived together in a Middleboro, MA apartment building, happy and conservative. During the summer my family spent days down at a pond in Carver, or we’d play baseball across the street at the little league field. Everything was so average and normal. But, one night I will never forget, because it was anything but normal.  It had been a fun day, maybe a Saturday or Sunday. I was three years old and my older brother was four, and my dad had played a game of Super Mario Brothers with us. Things were so carefree. It was after 8 o’clock, my bedtime, …

The Man at the End of the Tunnel

During a school break me and my friend Jason were walking to my house because he was going to stay the night (in a different room of course). We had been looking forward to this for awhile as we walked around town on the way to my house we began talking about legends, myths, and ghost stories. I told him about the town legend he had never herd it before.

I said, “Ever herd the legend of the goat man. Down at the bike trail at night years back there was a goat man that would capture kids and kill them. Now it is has been going around sometimes at night you can see him walking around still looking for children. “He was amazed by hearing that and wanted to go down there. I immediately said’ “NO!, are you crazy people still say they see him.” Still he wanted to go so I finally said ok. the time was around …

Bedtime Stories from Noel

Ever since I was three years old I have had experiences.  My grandfather was half Mingo Indian and I believe that is why I have this gift or curse depending on the event. I have run into more nonbelievers then believers and even though I have read many stories on here, it has taken me a long time to build the courage up to put my experiences.

Well here it goes. The first incident I can remember started in 1981 in a small town in Northern West Virginia when I was 3 years old. Now I know what you are thinking who can remember anything from that young of an age but if you had experienced the things I have you would.  I was a normal 3 year old who would wake up in the middle of the night for what ever reason. However unlike normal children I had a ghost come and tell me stories and put me back …

Lady at the Abandoned House

In our town, there is a newly constructed house near the old bridge located after the old school building.

That house was intended for the owner of the land that covers the school grounds. Its is designed like town house, painted on white. It has two floors and the second floor has big windows and all is being covered by glasses. I can call it luxurious that’s why I don’t understand why the owner did not assigned anybody to live and take care of the house.

The house was suddenly left abandoned, the gates where not even constructed well. For what good reason, nobody knows. After a month,the house looked so odd and scary. Its as if somebody is staring on you whenever you pass their. And since the glass were tinted you can never tell who is watching you from the inside.

Sometimes we will see the house lights turned on and sometimes not, its like somebody has been …

Haunted By A Creature from My Lucid Dreams

I was 17 at the time and had been involved in tarot readings and palm readings for friends, family, and schoolmates who would pay me to read them. I was good at what I did, had a natural talent and was open to the supernatural. I had run with a general bad crowd of misfits for almost two years.

It was the end of spring beginning of summer when I began to have really intense lucid dreams involving a “vampire” that turned into me opening a forgotten door into this world that was in a veil of darkness and twilight. There were no trees, no air, just a permanent stillness and heaviness in the air. Chunks of rock and barren dark land stretched out as far the eye could see and in the center of this barren rocky Martian landscape was this chunk of rocky cliff that seemed to just float in mid air above everything and in its center …

Ouija Spirit – The Dew Breaker

This story takes place in a music studio that I share with a friend of mine. The studio itself resides in the lower portion of an old shop, in a historic district. Most of the buildings have been there since the early eighteen hundreds. We have always experienced odd happenings in the studio. Soft footfalls in the shop above us after closing hours etc.

The first experience I had was early in my days at the studio. To enter the studio you have to come down a set of stairs. The stairs themselves are quite dark, so we put a motion sensor light at the base of the stairs to cut on when you open the top door. Late one night after a jam we heard someone coming down the steps and the light kicked on. However there was no one there. This naturally creeped me out. After that hearing odd things became business as usual. It has always creeped …

Spirit Imitating the Living

When I was eleven years old, we used to live in an apartment complex. My mom and Dad both worked on Saturdays, so my cousin Lizeth would come and baby sit us on those days. My mom’s side of the family is very much into the supernatural and are very superstitious, even though they are Roman Catholic. We would always watch scary movies or TV shows on the weekend. Well that weekend my cousin was making breakfast, my little sister Karina,was helping her. I excused myself to go to the bathroom, and what I saw that day when I was coming out of the bathroom still baffles me and scares me till this day.

Being an apartment, there was only one hallway that lead to the living room and the kitchen. Also, when you stepped out of the hallway bathroom you could see into the master bedroom. As I was stepping out I heard a noise in my parent’s bedroom …

Old Elementary School had a Demonic Spirit

My old elementary school always kind of creeped me out . But when I got into fourth grade, which, along with fifth grade, was on the second floor of the school . It all started off as small things, things that could have been anything, if they didn’t come from an angry spirit.

A door slammed a couple of time and wind blew at a certain boy, which was my friend I might add. Things always flew at him, for some reason always him. But sometime in October, he started acting strange. Usually religious, he suddenly stopped praying and showing signs of faith in God like he had usually done about everyday. We all thought it was nothing, so we ignored it. But that day he got really sick, a really high fever. He had to go home. He kept telling us that his head hurt a lot. We just thought he probably got sick from playing outside, it can …
