Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

Haunted Village in Kent England

Pluckley is a small village in Kent, England. It is reportedly the most haunted place in England. I am a keen ghost hunter so I’ve spent many nights down there, armed with my trusty video camera and here’s what happened the first night…

Myself a group of friends drove down to Pluckley, we arrived approximately 11 pm. Pluckley is an extremely small village and really consists of one pub, a church, a small shop, butchers, a school and the rest are houses. There are 2 ‘main’ roads which run through Pluckley, one which goes down to ‘the screaming woods’ (I’ll explain that one later) and the other which travels through the heart of Pluckley down to the next village which is approx 5 miles away. Although I refer to these as main roads, they are in fact just country lanes.

Anyway, we arrived at Pluckley and parked in the black horse pub car park which is situated next to St. …

Poltergeist Mystery in England

I live in a small village in England. Me and my family moved in to our house last October and since then strange things have been happening to us.

A couple of weeks in to the new school term me and my sister lost our reading books. We got worried that we would be told off so we spent over 3 hours looking for them both; We practically turned the house upside down. We had to eventually leave for school without them so we reluctantly got in to the car and drove off. When I got home that afternoon I went upstairs to my room to get changed and freshen up. I was home alone as my sister had an after school club and my parents were still at work-I had let myself in with my key. Nobody had been home since we left this morning, but as I went in to my sister’s room to collect some perfume she’d …

Haunted Family Bungalow in West Yorkshire

When I was around 5 years old I moved with my mother and father to a small bungalow located in a semi-rural West Yorkshire farming village. We understood that the previous home owner was an old lady who owned a black cat. The local shop keeper had found the old lady passed away in her chair in the living room after nobody in the area had seen her for quite a few days.

The bungalow was a small 2 bed, 1 bath with an attic. After a couple of years we got the money together to convert the attic into a large upstairs bedroom. We had a staircase put in which went through the original bedroom (belonging to the old lady) and then her old bedroom became our new dining room. Nothing really happened at all in the house and I always remember it being a warm, happy place.

After having a lot of trouble at a new school with …

My Out of Body Experiences

My name is Laurel-Beth, I am 21 and live in the South of England, UK.

The start of my story does not entirely coincide with ghost stories but I do indeed think that this is chilling, even for me to tell.

I have been having out of body experiences since a very young age. I know this sounds extremely far fetched, even to myself just writing it down.

The first experience I had, that without doubt I can say was an OBE was when I was 6 years old. I had a terrible accident at school. Sounds silly looking back but we had HUGE monkey bars at school. VERY high off of the ground, it was like having to climb a full size adult ladder to get to the top of these monkey bars. I was climbing my way along them from underneath in a crawling type fashion and my back and head was facing the ground (I’m not sure …

Tebray Is Back!

Back in 2008 I posted a story about a ghost called Tebray ( The Boogeyman Whispered ‘Tebray’ ) and how he used to torture me when I was 3. I am now 16, 17 in July and live in a town called Hebburn. I thought it would be good to reminisce and go back to all the previous houses I had lived in, including the one in Longbenton also known as the devil’s house where Tebray was.

This is how it went, me and my friend went on a trip to Longbenton and I didn’t realize I was walking past my old house where Tebray was. My eyes were glued to the window where the sitting room was. I ran from the front to the house to the back where my old bedroom was. I was thinking that its been too long to hold this fear anymore, so I decided to confront them. As soon as I spotted my bedroom, …

Incubus Attack?

My names Amie,I’m 18 from Worcester, England, UK.

This all started happening to me about 6 months ago. I was at my home in bed asleep then I woke up randomly in the middle of the night. I couldn’t move a muscle in my body or open my eyes. I was like paralyzed! Or all of my energy was drained from me. I was wide AWAKE, it wasn’t a dream or me imagining it.

I started to feel someone stroking my hair sitting on the edge of my bed near me. I couldn’t see anyone but I could just feel the presence. I then felt this really heavy weight/pressure on my chest almost like someone was sitting on me or pushing down on my chest. I wasn’t able to speak or move! The only thing I was able to do was breathe but that was a struggle because of the pressure on my chest. I then started to feel a …

A Savior

I have always been skeptical of ghosts and even after these events I would say I am still not a true believer. However I am not a person to simply dismiss fairly strong evidence so I have decided to put it to a community who could help me make sense and maybe give clarity of such events.

It first happened back when I use to live in Cornwall miles away from any other people or towns in 2008. I lived alone as my wife worked a high power job and would spend weeks away from home. During this time I was going through boughts of depression and in June it reached its climax.

Sick of life I went into our barn and got a piece of rope and tied it to the rafters. However when tying it and putting it around my neck I made some mistakes and when I jumped it failed to kill me instantly. I hung there …

James the Womanizer Ghost

My father had worked for a large car company and sometimes he had to travel or we had to move a lot,sometimes overseas. It wasn’t easy and we didn’t always get to unpack, living out of boxes and suitcases was the norm as was home schooling.

Back in 1978, I had just turned 16 when my father told us of yet another move, this time to England, some where outside of London. Since my mom was from Scotland, I was excited at the thought of getting to see my grandparents more and spending more time with them.

The company found us a small cozy house that looked like it was a picture come to life. It was great and was said to be over 300 years old and that royalty had slept within its walls, pretty cool. That alone made the house all the more special. But, someone forgot to tell us it was haunted by a well know womanizer …

Falstaff Hotel in Canterbury

My family have experienced all sorts of things when they were younger, and I seemed to have inherited a sort of “sensitive” gene. For example my dad saw his mum after she died, and his dad saw his grandmother after she died, and Mum and I have experienced feelings of being followed or watched etc.

But this is my story. I was born in England and then moved to Australia. My grandparents and uncles, aunts and cousins live in England still so we traveled back to visit them. We decided to stay in the Falstaff hotel in Canterbury which seemed really nice at the time.

My mum and I were really tired so we decided to watch TV in our room. Mum had dropped off to sleep and I was still watching TV. I suddenly got really tired and turned off the TV and got ready for bed. As soon as I laid my head on the pillow, something said …

Strange Goings on for London Contractor

Back in 1999 when I was working away in Enfield, London with my mate, his dad and a few others. My mates dad had got me a labouring job at short notice so they were a bit pushed to get me somewhere to stay for the time I was working there. They did have a spare bedroom at there digs but the problem was the owner of the house, an Irishman who they called the paddy, would sometimes stay there the odd night and they were only paying for the four of them. But anyway the first night after my first day at work they decided I could stay there but it would have to be kept hush in case the paddy found out who owned the house.

On the way home from my first day of work we called at a take-away and got a Chinese meal and headed straight to the digs, as they called them. As we …

Possible Ghost Picture from Old English Pub

Hello, I recently bumped into an old friend who I hadn’t seen for months. He knows that I’m interested in all paranormal and decided to strike up a very interesting conversation on UFOs and ghosts. We spoke for hours and the time flew by.

He then showed me a photo on his camera that he insisted he’d taken of his friend Jenny and her Aunty in a local old pub. In the upper left corner we can see a very bright anomaly shaped similar to a face, possibly with horns! He swears the strange luminous object wasn’t there when he took the photo, and to prove to me this was so he offered to drive me approximately two miles to this old inn.

When we got to the pub we got a drink and he walked us over to the exact spot where the photo was taken (on 15th March 2009). We even took another several shots from the precise …

My Daughter Attracts Spirits

This story spans over three homes in Cheshire, England

When I was pregnant with my daughter I lived in a small mother and baby unit, close to my previous home. I had enjoyed every second of living there, but when my daughter was born things almost immediately began to change. My flat was on the upper floor with another three flats. When returning from the communal living room at night with the other girls we all became aware of a presence on the upper landing. No one mentioned it to each other but we all noticed one and other switching on the light for the landing before we turned the corner.

One night, I think my daughter was a month old, I was sitting in the communal living room with Becky. We both heard a strange noise coming from my baby monitor which I had turned on so I could hear if my daughter woke up. We both listened to …
