Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

House Guest with an Occult Past

I know its going to sound weird but I believe that someone’s curse has manifested itself upon me. I have always been in tune and open minded both from a religious and scientific aspect in spirits. I am no where close to frightened by paranormal happenings. I have many but I would give one for now I feel I should tell as an introductory one.

At the age of 17 a friend of my brother moved in with us and she was living with us for a while. She told us she messed with a Ouija board with friends and her life was not the same. She said they all claimed to be haunted by a witch who wanted to kill them I thought to myself. that’s weird but didn’t pay it any mind.

After I graduated from high school I spent most of my time with friends or sleeping but when I use to be alone a lot happened. …

Changes in My Mother and the Evil Looking Creature

You can’t even trust someone as close to you as your mother

Hello, I’m 17 but this activity happened to my dad, brother, and I before my parents divorced when I was 12 my brother was 10. Not many people believe what I’m about to tell you but heck I’m not even sure how to explain what happened, but it did. We all experienced the same thing well here goes…

When I was 12 years old my grandpa was very ill so my dad took him to his doctors appointments in San Antonio, Texas at least once a week. My parent’s marriage was going downhill. My mom had a deep rage for my dad, who knows why but my mom didn’t feel like my mom anymore she seemed darker and distant so I didn’t want to stay alone with her and my little brother so on this particular day my brother and I decided to go to San Antonio with …

Strange Human and Dog Like Creature

This happened when I was about 14 maybe 15 (I am 22 now). Back then I was living with my mom and her boyfriend at the time. We had just rented a house that was about 100 years old which had been vacant for awhile in a very small town called Mt. Olive, Mississippi.

Anyway let me start off by saying that there was something “off” about this house. A lot of weird things have happened. For instance it gets very humid in Mississippi during the summer and the only cold room in the whole house (not cool like freezing cold.. day night didn’t matter) was my room.

We knew the history of the house.. there were ghostly orbs, demons, shadow people, may gnomes (because nothing was ever where you last saw it) nobody had moved it either… Anyway so like I said I was 14 maybe 15 at the time and I had taken my moms dog out to …

Sleep Paralysis Demon – Biting Back

I’ve suffered from this strange affliction for years. I never really see the thing in the room with me. I lie there aware but motionless. It’s skin is a dark, dark blue. Sometimes there are many. They are short. They seem to be doing or trying to do something to me. Like some type of surgery. I can’t cry out or move. One time I could talk and was begging them to stop. They just looked at me like a dumb animal and continued.

I wake up scared and in pain. I try to tell myself it was a dream but I can remember everything in such detail. I wake up covered in sweat and mentally drained. Unable and afraid to sleep, I stay up with the lights on.

One time though, it was happening again, it was near my side and seemed to have some type of bag. I couldn’t move. I was so angry. But, I felt movement …

Strange Creature an Entity in the Woods

This isn’t so much a story as a question. The question being, what is it? I have searched the internet trying to figure out what this was and why it happened but I cannot find anything. I’ve had one experience with a shadow figure but it was nothing compared to this. So now I will tell you what happened to my family and maybe somebody can help me with it.

In December of 2006 my family and I moved into a new house. Well, new for us, it was an older house. I am the head of the household. I have a wife and 3 small children. At the time we thought we were really lucky to find such an awesome deal. This was a 2800 sq foot house in the woods with no neighbors for $1000.00 a month. I was a successful car salesman at the time and my wife is a nurse. We thought the house was great …

Red Eyed Creature in Ohio Woods

My best friend, Rachel, and I have been friends almost our entire lives. Since 2nd grade, and we are now graduated out of school. The first time I ever spent the night at her house, which was probably around the 6th grade, we saw something.

We both woke up out of a dead sleep and looked at the window. What we saw changed our lives forever. It looked similar to a man, but with red eyes. I thought I was dreaming at first, but the next morning Rachel asked me if I had seen it. That’s when she told me that wasn’t her first encounter with it. She had seen it outside her house, which is up on a big hill surrounded by woods, several times since she was around 6 years old. We have both seen this creature several times since then, both together and separately. It’s taller than the average man around 6 to 7 feet, it’s arms …

Man-Made Monsters

Man-Made Monsters: A Field Guide to Golems, Patchwork Solders, Homunculi, and Other Created Creatures

Book Review by the CareTaker

Many of the fears that most of faced as children involved “things” like ghosts and monsters. Some of the scariest creatures imagined were more likely to be thought of as creations of humans rather than being of supernatural origin. Even still, a creature such as a golem or a “Frankenstein’s Monster” is very often thought of as being demonic or “of the Devil”. The idea was that such constructs could not have a soul from God therefore the life they feigned must have come from something evil.

Man-Made Monsters is full of interesting information and tidbits about the monsters that have been created by mankind ~ at least in our minds, myths and lore. I am sure there are those who believe the story of the so-called Frankenstein monster was based more in truth than others. And perhaps there was more …

Was it the Boogeyman?

My name is Charmaine and this is my story… When I was about 7 years old I started seeing this small creature, it was the size of a dwarf, had sharp yellowish teeth, had red eyes and it’s fingers looked like they were sharpened. At first the creature didn’t do much, it just stood on my table in front of the bed and looked at me, it scared me. I couldn’t move, I was so scared. Later it would smile at me, the evilest smile I had ever seen, later it pointed and smiled. I tried to ignore it, but it wouldn’t go away. I was so scared to go to bed at night. It would appear each night, when the lights were turned off and my parents were sleeping. They never believed me when I told them about the ‘thing’.

After a few months I ignored it and it didn’t like that, he started to scratch the under side …
