Messages From The Dead
Do you believe that it is possible for the dead to communicate with the living? There is a story that is told by a young lady which concerns a visitation from her departed sister. Her sister came to her in a vision and showed her a trip to a hospital to see her grandmother. Her sister told her that she was there to help her grandmother pass on to the other side.
A short time later the young lady did make a trip to a hospital. Every detail of the trip including the way the hospital looked inside and out was accurate as she had seen it in the ‘vision’. She had never been to that hospital yet she knew what to expect and was surprised to see that even the inside of the hospital looked as it did in her vision.

Read Complete Story Here...Vampires Are Everywhere
Would you like to know more about vampirism and vampire culture? Vampires are everywhere. There might even be one living on your street.
Most of us have some serious misconceptions about vampires. This has come from the tremendous effect “Hollywood” has had upon us. People who wanted to sell films and movies didn’t necessarily know anything, or research thoroughly. They merely wanted to entertain. In the process vampire myths and fallacies have been imprinted upon generations of people.
Do vampires really depend upon drinking the blood of the ‘living’ to survive? Are they prisoners of the night time never able to see daylight?

Read Complete Story Here...The Deadly Ghost Picture
Submitted to us by Sohail Iqbal
Two friends went on holiday in Asia. They went to Pakistan for some reason. One night in Pakistan one man told his friend to stand on a rock,and he did. The other man was looking around and he said perfect.
Then he got out his camera and was about to take a picture. As soon as he took the picture he just collapsed.
His friend took him to the nearest hospital. And he had found out that his friend had died. The doctors said he couldn’t have just died like that. So his friend looked at the picture.
When he saw the picture he saw himself but there was an old woman next to him. She had white shiny hair, she had long finger nails, she was dressed in pure white, she was smiling at the camera and had one arm resting on the mans shoulders.
When he showed the doctor this, the doctor …
Read Complete Story Here...Indian Ghost in the Basement
Submitted to us by Deyhonn Christine Brown
One day in 1999, like I said in a previous story that my parents had built a house in the country. Well, apparently, they built it on an Indian burial ground.
One night I had heard my dog Boots crying (Boots yelped, whined but never cried), so I walked down into the basement to take him out to the bathroom (that is where he stayed, because he was a pee-er), but he didn’t go out.
I forgot to mention that my dad had this very large trench coat that he had hanging from the ceiling in the basement. Any way, my dog wouldn’t go out, and I looked at the dog and he was staring right past me (directly up at the coat), so I asked him what was wrong, and he just kept staring.
So I looked over my shoulder, and where the trench coat had been hung, there was an Indian …
Read Complete Story Here...Haunted Basement Story
Submitted by Deyhonn Christine Brown.
This story is very recent. This happened to me no longer than two weeks ago. My family and I had just moved into a new house this summer (only 1 mile from our other house) and I decided that my room was going to be in the basement.
So any way, a week or so ago, I was sitting on my bed writing in my journal, when all of a sudden my TV turns on, so I look up and it turns off. I really wasn’t bothered by this because this happens quite regularly, so I ignore it and go back to writing.
Then it turns on again. This time it was flipping through the channels, so again I look up and it turns off again.
Now I’m starting to get cold, and as I look down to start writing again, the power shuts off. Paranoid and annoyed I get up with my cell phone …

Ghost Girl in a White Dress
Submitted to us by Ana
Well over the years I have encountered several ghostly experiences. I would say, however, according to my parents it’s just my crazy imagination. Anyway this happened about 4 years ago.
My family began remodeling the house and my room (which I share with my sister and is the biggest room in the house). At the time my room was empty except our two beds, our nightstand and TV.
At about 12 midnight I woke up and noticed a bright light in between both my sisters and my bed. I told myself I was dreaming (however I remember clearly till this day that I blinked several times to make sure I wasn’t).
Afterwards I was convinced that I was wide awake. After finally being able to make out what was in front of me I noticed it was a figure of a little girl. She wore a white dress. She was light skinned and had short …
Read Complete Story Here...Two Ghosts in my Room
Submitted to us by Kayla Whittle
Well, at night, when I turn out my light, there are two ghosts. One in the corner of my room and one in my dolphin cabinet. The one in the corner looks like it is wearing sunglasses. The one in the cabinet is a cat. It is a black cat with two scary orange and yellow eyes. One thing the cat does will wake you up in the middle of the night, and when you wake up it is in your face meowing.
The only way I get it to go away I call my parents, and it disappears.I am now afraid of the dark I sleep with the cabinet light on but I still see them during the day.
Read Complete Story Here...The Ghost in My House
Submitted to us by Dorthi Harvey
I have had a ghost, maybe two, in my home for years. They have never tried to hurt me, but ever so often makes sure I still know they are here.
He has moved articles and has opened doors. You can hear him walking. I saw him once. It was like fog, but in the shape of a large man. It scared my dog badly so I told him, “please leave you are scaring me”. He just disappeared.
The only thing that has really scared me was when I looked up one day and the door area on a top cabinet was burned. It was just charred about a three inch area. No explanation how this could happen.
I have felt him around a lot, it will just get real cold. I know there is one ghost, at least, in my house no doubt in my mind.
I love to read these articles and …
Read Complete Story Here...Ghosts Haunt My Back Porch
Submitted to us by Jessica
I have this back porch that’s supposedly haunted. Well its true, because my grandma, my dad, my sister, my mom, and me have had weird things happen to them. Like my grandma heard screaming from the back porch. So she went to look and she could hear a man and a little girl talking and all of a sudden it stopped.
My dad could hear stuff fall to the ground so he went to go look and a screw driver was floating in mid-air!
My sister was getting her clothes dry when she felt breathing by her ear! The breathing stopped but she could hear her name being called.
My mom saw a little girl in there sitting on the dryer machine!
And last in my story, I was putting the clothes in the washer machine when a huge gust of wind came up. I felt like screaming for my dad but nothing came out …
Read Complete Story Here...Crazed Cat at Four in the Morning
Submitted to us by Jess
Seriously, this freaked the pants off me, and I couldn’t sleep the rest of the night afterwards. Sucky thing was, it was a school night too.
From the hours of 11 PM to 4 AM, I was dead asleep with my cat also sleeping at the foot of my mattress. I was awoken by my cat, who’s an 11 year old orange tabby. He was meowing repeatedly, and I just thought he wanted attention (He’s an attention lover).
So I yawned, stretched, and just as I was sitting up, I extended my hand to him, only to see that my door had been opened. This scared the pants off me because my door is always locked and bolted shut.
I thought it was my mom or younger brother, so as lazy as I am, I make a face, and get up. Needless to say, I was slightly angry that my cat and something were trying …
