Spirit Faces and My Haunted Curtain
Submitted to us by Joey Quan
I keep seeing faces immediately when I look at the window, but I am not disturbed when it’s morning. I know it’s silly, but it’s true. Believe it or not, I don’t care.
When it’s bed time, I would always turn to my bed sides so I won’t see the faces. It’s quite comfortable.
One of my curtains is slanted sideways and every time my maid or my mum puts it upright, it would become slanted again. I think it’s really haunted, but some times I don’t.

Haunted Port Arthur Prison Cell 14
Submitted to us by Ella Perrin
On Saturday 25th of September 2004 my family and I went on a night ghost tour of Port Arthur in Tasmania.
We went into a lot of buildings and the tour guide was telling stories about the each certain place we were in at the time.
When we were walking down the halls of the silent part of the prison something grabbed me around my wrist and was trying to pull me into the cell.
When it happened I was walking past cell 14 which was boarded off because three people, in a time span of 20 years, when walking past had been pulled into the cell.
When people found them they were sitting in the corner rolled into the fetal position. When they were out of the building they were fine.
I was pretty freaked out because something was pulling my wrist between the boards.
I had a big bruise shaped as a …
Read Complete Story Here...Sunflower My Native American Ghost Friend
Submitted to us by Michelle Bliss
Hi, every weekend other weekend I go to a farm. This farm is on Native American land. the first day I went there she showed me these metal rods (still cant remember what they are) she told me to hold them in my hand and sense my energy they started spinning around.
When I went outside I programmed them and started asking questions, ‘is there a spirit here’, ‘is it my age’, ‘is it a girl’. All were yes.
I guessed its name on the first try, knowing that she was telling me. I told Maryann and she told me that she talked to Sunflower (the ghost) on a regular basis to this day I still talk to her.
Read Complete Story Here...Ghost Cat In Our Loft
Submitted to us by Embraeah Catthol
In about January 2007, I was sitting in my room while my younger sister was on the computer. It was about ten o’clock in the morning, so I was fully awake, while my older cousin, Beau, was asleep. Payge, my younger sister, had her headphones on, so what happened couldn’t have been her.
From around our loft, where Beau slept, I heard a single, clear, loud ‘Meow’. I asked Payge if it was her, but she said that it wasn’t. The TV’s obviously wasn’t making the noise, because I don’t use my bedroom’s TV, my living room TV wasn’t on, and my mom’s TV can’t be that clearly defined when her bedroom door is shut.
Strangest thing is: My cats died in 2005, and I don’t have any, nor could I hear my neighbors’ cats if they had any.
This story is so freaking weird. Not only do I not own any cats, but …
Read Complete Story Here...The Old Woman Ghost In My Sisters Bed
Submitted to us by Janice
My sister, who’s name I shall not speak, swears that when she was young, at night an old lady would come and sit on her bed till she fell asleep. She said even though she did not know the woman, she wasn’t afraid.
The lady would come every night, she was about 6 years old then, now she is 14. She hasn’t seen the woman since she was 7.
Now, a couple months ago she said the woman returned. The funny thing was, the night the woman returned, my friend and I were up the whole night and saw nothing.
I don’t know, but my sis has experienced weirder things like a shadow man, and a blue person strolling past her room. But that is a different story for a different time.
Read Complete Story Here...My Great Grandfather’s Ghost
Submitted to us by Jakie Class
I was in my great grandmothers house. The house was built by my grandfather who has passed on. He came here from Italy during the war and built hidden passage ways and tunnels in the house in case we needed to hide.
One day one of the passageways flooded and my mom went over to help out. I wandered off and got lost in the tunnels and couldn’t find my way out. I screamed for help but no-one came, so I panicked and started to cry.
Minutes later I saw and elderly man who said he was a friend of my grandma and was going to take me to her. So I followed him through the tunnels and passageways and then we came to one of the rooms and he told me to wait there and my grandma would be able to find me. Then he went into another room and disappeared.
Moments later …

Hello, I’m a construction worker out of Tampa Florida. I do a lot of maintenance work in the hospitals around the state.
I was at the Bay Pines V.A Hospital near St.Petersburg. There are many buildings on the complex, its just my luck I was in the oldest building. I was told that it was built in the late teens and early 20′s.
I was on the 2nd floor with a co-worker and we were the only ones on the floor at the time. We were at the end of a long hallway working in a mechanical room after hours. For some reason I looked down to the end of the hallway. I saw a man staring at me who had on a grey jumpsuit kind of like a mechanic suit and he was kind of pail and faceless.
So I turned to my co-worker and said I thought we were the only ones up here. He turned and looked …
Read Complete Story Here...Ghost Girl in The Hallway
Submitted to us by Alyssa
One day I woke up in the middle of the night because I had to use the bathroom. I went and I shut off the bathroom light and I turned around and there was a little girl standing in the hallway just in front of the back door.
She had a dirty but white dress on and long brown hair so I stared at her then went back into my bedroom
My sister Tiffany saw a little girl with blonde hair crawling down the hallway. Even my big brother Eddie saw a blonde haired little girl and so did my mom.
I was the only one who saw a brown haired little girl. Ever since before I was born ghosts have been following us. So now I am afraid to walk down the hallway.
When I was a baby my family use to see and hear banging on the walls, little girls, footsteps, and big …
Read Complete Story Here...The Old Man Next Door’s Ghost
Submitted to us by Anne Macorlney
It was when I was only seven years old and lived in a rented house in new Delhi in India. I was the cutest girl in the neighborhood and everyone loved me especially an old man next-door, Mr. Bhatia. He had no grandchildren and so he used to treat me as if I was his own grandchild. He used to tell me stories and we spent lot of time together. He made me call him Daddu.
It was late night that day when I went to bed. I shared beds because it was a one bedroom flat and I felt really scared to sleep alone in the big living room. I fell deep asleep until some thing in the middle of the night made my eyes shoot open. I felt as if someone was watching me, from behind, trying to communicate. I did not have my mom at my side, neither my dad. It …
Read Complete Story Here...Grandpa Fuller’s Ghost
Submitted to us by Mary Ellen
A long time ago, in about 1997, I met grandpa Fuller. He was my best friend Peyton’s grandpa also known as “papi”. He was a nice man who always talked to me and he always gave me candy.
One day I went to her house and she was crying, I asked “what’s wrong?” she said that papi died. I was in shock, I sat beside her and cried with her. I never got to go to his funeral which made me sad.
About a year or two later Peyton and me decided to go to her grandma’s house to stay the night. The night went on as a normal night. Everything was going great, then we had to go to bed. We slept in her grandma’s room on the left side of the house. There were two beds and I chose the one by the window.
I was watching TV peacefully as Peyton fell …
