True Ghost Tales

Haunted by Shadow Dogs

Wchasihen I was a little girl, I was no older then four or five years old when this horrible haunting began. I was an only child, and I was the daughter of older parents, and to my knowledge, they were not religious at all! My father was an atheist, and he was teaching me from an early age, that there was no such thing as ghosts or angels or even god himself. My mom was right behind my father in his beliefs, but I think she at least believed in God, but never talked about it, but she definitely was not a religious woman by all means!

I was a very well cared for child, and my parents were good people, who treated me well, so I was not an emotionally abused child or neglected in anyway.

I remember having these horrible nightmares every single night, and I call them nightmares because, this is what my parents believed they were, …

A Strange Night in Chandigarh

It all started on a holiday visit to my cousin’s place in Chandigarh, India. We had developed the habit of waking up late night and watching movies, gossiping. I had always been interested in paranormal stories and took keen interest in hearing other people’s experiences. It was during one of these nights, me and my sister were talking casually about the cemetery built behind our house.

There had been cases of unusual sightings and strange noises were heard. Though we didn’t exactly believed in all this, but the stories we had heard from our neighbors had convinced us to believe there was indeed something strange and eerie about the place. So that night we decided to take a stroll along the cemetery road. As we approached the area, we could feel the chillness in the air and the darkness of the night. The streets wore a deserted look. We could feel the silence in the atmosphere. Some fear crept inside …

Catskills Inn Nightmare

Around 1976 or so,when I was a kid my Father my stepmom and me went on a car trip out to upstate New york to visit an old Friend and family. The house was big and old. It had those long windows and high ceilings with big staircase and large entrance with an ornate overhang on the front. The color was a dark red stain with peeling white trim.

We stayed a couple of quiet days with them except for the last night I had a strange nightmare. I awoke with this heavy weight on my chest. It was stopping me from breathing. It was dark in the room only moonlight through the big window. I was alone in this bedroom upstairs. I strained my eyes to see what it was on my chest. It was a sort of big black cat. I tried to move and I couldn’t. I tried to scream but nothing came out. I closed my …

Paralyzed in Sleep and Shadows

I have 3 stories to tell…

(1) When I was two I lived in Missouri. I used to see black shadows float above my bed and when I was 6 I saw a white figure walk from my grandmas bedroom to my mom and dads room.

(2) Ever since I was four I have been having trouble sleeping. I would wake up but I couldn’t open my eyes. I couldn’t breathe. I felt like something was laying on my chest. I couldn’t yell for my mom or dad, every time I tried I would hear demonic growling.

(3) I always have weird dreams. One dream was about a little girl playing piano. I went to tell her she plays good and she turned around her whole face was burnt off. And the other dream I had was of a man in his 40′s asking me to help him find his daughter.

Is there any reasons for all this? Why do …

Please Help Me Understand What This Is

Not a ghost story but asking if this had happened to anyone?

Please help me understand what this is? And why this happened to me? I lost my father tragically 2 years ago and last night before I went to bed I was very upset. I told my husband how much I missed my father and how much I want him back… I wish he was alive, how badly I need him! I was crying very hard and my husband said I just needed sleep.

We went to bed and I struggled to fall asleep. Then of all of a sudden I felt very tired as if someone had given me a sleeping pill. (which was odd because I could not sleep). A few hours later I was awoken by a feeling of someone sitting next to me, I could feel the pull of the blanket and the presence of someone was right next to me.

I was completely paralyzed. …

Whispering My Name

Now I have to say that I am afraid of everything before I go on with my story. Witnessing this has me terrified although it may be nothing to whoever reads this.

My boyfriend and I had grown used to sleeping together so when he had to leave town for a little while we slept on the phone together. He was gone for a few weeks and every single night we would sleep together on the phone.

One night we were talking and then I started to fall asleep, almost instantly. I wasn’t even tired, I just randomly fell asleep. I don’t know how long I was asleep. When I woke up to the sound of someone whispering my name. It wasn’t my boyfriend’s voice, or any voice I have ever heard. It was very very deep. So I woke up in a panic and couldn’t move. I just looked around and could see nothing odd.

My boyfriend was awake …

Old Cabin on Old Boonesboro Road

Growing up wild and wooly the way I did meant that my friends were few and far between, but they were each one precious to me. Two of my very best friends were Bill and Willie, and truer better friends there weren’t on the planet. Bill was our leader, he of the old and beautiful Jeep truck, his blond head set at more than 6 feet above the ground, on his broad country shoulders.

Next was Willie, the cowboy, the clown, the bronc rider. Willie was as tough as they came, and as good. He often led us into a situation that Bill tried to get us out of, and often as not failed to do so. Willie is the genius behind our VW scandal that must never be talked about. He snored loudly and chewed tobacco.

Bills Father, after months of begging and wheedling by the three of us, finally gave to Bill the old cabin set back from …

Girl With Gray Eyes Caused Strange Things to Happen

It started in my village at Chittagong. It was a long time ago when I was around nine or ten years old. My family planned to visit my grandparents in Agrabad. My cousin, aunt and uncle also went there for a visit. We decided to briefly settle there.

About the story, I would first like to inform that I did not face it. I was very young and did not have any idea of what happened, just heard from one of my aunts who was the main victim.

Anyway, I guess you all believe in spirits. Many years back, my grandma (who now passed away) kept a girl for handling house works. She was with long black hair, big grey eyes, had quite dark complexion and slender figure. I cannot give a plausible description about her for I had not seen her in my entire life. They knew nothing about her but for the sake of taking care of house …

Dark Shadow and Paralysis

OK, this is the absolute most malevolent occurrence I’ve ever experienced. I have been witness to literally hundreds of paranormal events in my life. No I’m not talking about things being misplaced or I could have sworn I left such and such on that table. Things that fly across the room. Absolutely zero interpretation need be applied. When they are active they make believers real fast out of people who swear the contrary.

Get ready, just the story alone here still creeps me out. And I was there. Keep in mind that the majority of my experiences were basically benevolent. Not this one.

We have a farm in Palestine, Texas. I was sleeping in the bed with my current wife. When all of a sudden I was awakened and I could swear there was someone standing at the foot of the bed. I was groggy and thought my eyes weren’t focusing right but the truth it it was a shadowy …

Is it Sleep Paralysis?

I have had four encounters with what the doctor says is Sleep Paralysis.

It all started last year when I woke early hours in the morning with the feeling of not being able to move, not scream, eyes wouldn’t open fully only slightly and when they did open I saw a black cloaked figure who sat on top of my body pulling something from my chest. Shutting my eyes again trying to scream and when my eyes opened once more it vanished.

This happened a further three times all between 4 – 5 am but the fourth time was different, this time when I opened my eyes there were two dark figures that I could see through corner of my eye; one on top of my chest another at the side of my bed. This time I fought. I tried screaming harder than ever before and I managed to wriggle and fight it off me and kick it then …

Sleep Paralysis and Things I Cant Explain

I have been having sleep paralysis now for about 6 years; I started to get it when I was in my final year of university and was holding down 2 jobs, working all hours and partying all night. I would get it about 3 times a week, but only get it now a few times a month as finished uni and started my career. I don’t party much any more and spend most of my time at the gym and doing sports which helped a lot.

I found what triggered mine was lack of sleep, shift in sleeping pattern, drinking too much booze on a heavy session and the worst thing, having afternoon naps. The first few times it really scared me, the first time I tried calling for my mum and I was 20 so that shows how much it freaked me out. But now I know what’s going to happen and it doesn’t scare any where near as …
