Lancaster Apartments Mactan Island Cebu
In December 2009 into January 2010. My wife daughter and I were staying at the Lancaster Apartments on Mactan Island near the Airport. Apparently unknown to my wife and I that these Apartments and building complex had been built some 15 years prior and project abandoned. Until a New Investment Group took over the Buildings and began finishing the project with Self Contained Accommodation Units.
Well my wife and I had accommodation for 3 weeks at the Lancaster and we began experiencing many unusual events we could not explain. As the Unit we were occupying was on the Second Floor E Wing of the Complex Room E220. The surrounding rooms were un-occupied and used as storerooms or were incomplete and locked for safety and security. That was fine until about 10 pm each night my wife and I heard unusual sounds coming from the next door Unit. Like Furniture being dragged across the room across stone tiled flooring. Always at …
Read Complete Story Here...Is She My Guardian Angel or Something Else?
On my seventh birthday, which was in January of 1997, I had an encounter with a little girl who was not of this world. At the time the little girl looked like she was about my age or younger. She was dressed in white and had short black.
The first time I saw this girl was the night of my birthday. Shortly after my mom had told me to put away my Hot Wheels Shark Attack Race Track. However, I was being disobedient and did not put it away after my mom left the room, but instead I left it on the floor with the toy cars scatter everywhere and turned off the light and laid in my bed to try and get a good nights sleep after my great birthday.
While I was in the process of trying to sleep the thunder and lighting outside my window was keeping me wide awake. So I rolled over to my left …
Read Complete Story Here...Getting My Attention
It started on Friday, August 28, 2009. My grandma had come into my room telling me to get out of bed and pack for my hometown in South Dakota. My mom and little sister had gotten into a crash.
After I packed I called my uncle and he told me that my sister had died at the hospital. By the time I got to see her she had been gone for an hour.
That Sunday when I got home, I was in bed trying to sleep when something or someone was telling me to look towards my open closet. When I looked, there was my sister laying on top of some boxes just like she was in the hospital.
Two weeks later I was at my sisters dads house and I had to go into the basement for something. While I was standing at the top of the stairs I saw what looked like a black shadow pass the bottom …
Read Complete Story Here...A San Diego Ghost Story
The year was 1980 something, it all happened in the middle of that decade of awful and awesome developments in music, fashion, politics and sex. The location was San Diego; never dreary, never even chilly San Diego, with her bleached hair, a tan and fake boobs, I can see San Diego, crying a tear, wiping it away, frowning, but with the corners of her mouth turned up, she is actually smiling when she frowns, San Diego. I was temporarily living in my sister Judy’s apartment. She had a perfect two-bedroom cottage, built over the two car garage in the large back yard of a dentist’s house in the sixties, the plan favored minimally decorated open spaces with wide-horizontal windows. The dark living room interior was finished with stained and varnished wood paneling, and because the views out the windows were of trees, the whole effect was like being in a sunny, breezy tree-house in a forest.
Although I was also …

Read Complete Story Here...Seemingly Holy Bracelet
Whereas dogs, insects and loud noises drive me mad, it’s the first time a bracelet achieved this. Now, my friends and loved ones (intellectuals or spiritualists) already see me as quite odd:
Bloodlust, seemingly insane, and even through this I am extremely praised for my intellect and philosophy, the way I see the world is so much more different, even though physically iv been told my brain is normal.
Now onto what I have to say, me and my friends were walking around alley ways that were rumored haunted, for strange and morbid things always seemed to attract us.
Well this takes place yesterday (early I know, but I’m not exactly happy knowing I might be an absolute loon), we went to an another alley, one that gave me a very slight stomach ache when I entered, but enough for me to notice. A friend felt it as well, and he had the urge to leave quickly, and he told …
Read Complete Story Here...The Night Visitor
When I was about 5 years old I was living in a house that use to be an old funeral home and they also cremated bodies there as well. The cemetery was our back yard. We use to have huge parties for Halloween because people thought it was creepy. At these parties people would play with the Ouija board and try to contact spirits.
I had always been afraid of the basement because whenever I went down there I would get a really bad sickening feeling in the pit of my stomach. But I don’t know if that was just because they still had the walk in body coolers that they stored the bodies and the crematoriums where they cremated dead people down there. But one night some neighbor children and I decided it would be fun to see who could spend the longest time in the cemetery and I had fallen asleep behind mausoleum and my mother had came …
Read Complete Story Here...Lisa the Angry Ghost
About 2 years ago, we shifted to an old Victorian house, in Kostov, Indiana. My children Pam, Ruth and Vicenta really, really liked this old house. However me and Doris (husband) sensed something evil in that house.
I was rooted to the ground when I sensed the “evil” something. I did not want to enter the house until I calmed down, but then something pushed me inside the house. From the next day, I heard Vicenta talking to someone/something I couldn’t hear or see.
In the evening, Vicenta told me about “Lisa.” I asked her who was Lisa, but she didn’t reply, she just kept looking at the stairs and suddenly, came behind me and held me tight and said in a trembling voice, “mommy, please save me! Mommy, Lisa is very angry! Mommy please!”
I didn’t understand anything so I asked what the matter was. Suddenly, she rose up to the air and flew and crashed down to the …
Read Complete Story Here...My Friend Charlie
Before my grandparents moved into our house they were told by the current owners that it was haunted by a young boy who died awhile back. He had some kind of illness and went to take nap and never woke up. It seems that the events didn’t occur until I was born in 1995 (by the way my family moved there when my mom was a year old).
The first event that I was told happened… my aunt used to take care of me while my mom was at work, and for some insane reason in the living room the light bulb was one of the Halloween ones that shoot out red instead of white. So my aunt left me in the living room watching barney while she took a shower. She closed and locked the door and when she came out the bathroom door was wide open.
The next experience also happened to my aunt, she was home alone …

I never really believed in ghosts, spirits, demons etc. But once you have have experienced something like I did, everything and anything is possible.
When you read on you have to believe every word, I’m not a person who tells lies, not with a tale like this, i wouldn’t want to go through the pain of imagining something like this. So it’s 100% true, and I’ve finally come to let it out.
It was September 1st and it was my first day back at school now starting year 7. I went to a rural type of school founded in the late 1800s in the country regions of England. The buildings where old and damp with the bricks breaking away. Most of it was safe to wonder around, but on the early morning of school, all 450 students where called into the huge hall with a message from our head. “students” he said “I’m sure most of you have already heard …
Read Complete Story Here...Beyond Belief Do I Know When Someone Will Die?
I have had many experiences but one of the worst is what I’m about to tell you. When I was little, around 5, I used to go in my room to go to sleep and I would look to the right of my bed and there would be an old tall man that would just sit there and watch me. I got so scared that I eventually started sleeping with my mom every night.
I saw him until I was about 8 and then weird things started happening to me. The day that my dad died I got a real bad pain in my stomach like hours before and ran home crying from church. After that I went to my uncles and my stomach still hurt. Then my mom got a call that my dad had been in a terrible accident and that he died.
2 years later I started having stomach pains, it was around 2009 July 20th and …
