The Fire Lady
This story was told to me by my grandma. This was several years ago, so I will try and remember everything she told me. When she was a young woman she worked in a mill. She told me that on lunch breaks everyone would gather in the basement where the furnaces were. This was where the men and women would "court". She sa...

The Haunting on Leita Street
I am from Newberry, South Carolina. I lived there for 20 years. These are my experiences of my parents’ home. My parents purchased their 4 bedroom house on Leita in 1986. They had 4 kids ages from 6-13. It was a wonderful upgrade from the small, mill house we had moved from. All seemed well for the first few weeks. We...

The Scream By The River
I grew up in South Texas. I guess you can say that in that area you couldn't go any further south and still remain in Texas. One autumn night two of my brothers and I, as well as some friends, went fishing a mile or so up river from the mouth of the Rio Grande. We went night fishing, which means you arrive before dusk...

The Scariest Job I've Ever Had
I worked graveyard shifts in a care center for a few years, and I saw a lot of strange things. For starters, the woman (I can't give many details to protect the privacy of the residents) in the second to last room down East hall could never sleep in that room. She would lay awake all night yelling and pushing her call ...

One Summer Night In Wales
When we were growing up, my brother and I made friends with our next door neighbour's grandchildren. They were about the same ages as we were, and from a very early age we spent most of the school holidays together.

House on Division Street, Dover
During 1987 through '89 I rented a house on West Division Street in Dover, Delaware, while I was a student at Wesley College.

Glass Doors and Slippery Floors
Helen & I met during our second year of high school and became instant friends. Two years after we met, Helen introduced me to the Ouija board; a tool I soon found addictive since the death of my three close friends, Scott, Martin & Aaron. Scott had been hit by a car at the age of 17; at the time, I had not seen or sp...

Ghost Lady From the 1700's
I was used to seeing ghosts, as I have had many ghostly encounters throughout my life, as so did my mother, grandmother and siblings and other members in my immediate family on my maternal side. So seeing or communicating with another ghost did not frighten me. When I was a child, ghosts would frighten me, but as I gre...

I thought it was a pain, but I got down there nevertheless. John (my boyfriend) had invited over three other guys. Brandon, PJ, and Mark. Wel...

Mansfield House
My family moved to Mansfield, GA in 1974, when I was eight years old and my sister, Kelly, was twelve. Our two-story Victorian was a real beauty. Built in 1902, it also included an old carriage house, a cook house, two duck ponds, and the most amazing spread out garden gone to seed you ever saw. I remember the beautifu...

Dark Cloud
I thought I was going mad when it first happened, my boyfriend and I had moved to a 3 bedroom house in a small village in Cheshire. The reason for the move was that I was expecting our first child and we didn't think our ultra-modern city centre apartment was the best place to raise a child. Lets face it, brushed steel...

Attacked And Followed
I worked in the basement of a Caltech campus building which had been periodically haunted by the spector of the upper half of a roofer who had fallen from the six story roof twenty years earlier. On the day of the 6.0 Whittier earthquake of 1987 I arrived at the building an hour earlier than usual and took the elevato...

Weird Things In An Old House
My grandparents used to own an old house built in the prior to the civil war in Louisiana that was always very creepy to me even at only four years old. I vividly remember the kitchen had a closet that had a small stairwell leading upstairs, but there was no upstairs. I have since had many dreams about this stairwell ...

Don't Listen
To start I'll tell you that my favorite pastime is swinging on a swing. Preferably at night when no one can see or find me, being my only means of escape from the tortures of a large family. (Some people climb onto the roof when they need to be alone, I swing.) My swing set is in the backyard of our old house underneat...

Ghosts At Grandma's
I am of Indian background, and I am told that I have what is called a "second sight", meaning I have the ability to see or sense what others can't. I've seen some strange things in my time, and I suppose I could share a few of them here. A few years back, some family members of mine moved into a two-story house. (Thi...

Camping and Childhood
I have always been into ghosts and spend a lot of my time studying them, which is why I often look forward to having contact with them. Even as a child, I was fond of them, which brings me to my first story. Recently, I have learned that someone died in my childhood home. I was never told what room this happened in, w...

Corpse Eyes
Several years ago I was living on a Naval base in Japan when I had an encounter that still haunts me today. I met some friends at a club/bar on the base to have a few beers, but left before my friends did (I've never been much of a drinker) After I left the bar I decided to take walk along the sea wall to clear my head...

Perry Hall Mansion/Jericho Bridge
A few weeks ago I was browsing through all my old videos I had taken with my camcorder. I came across a tape with the recording of the night me and three other people went on a ghost hunt around town. There were two places we visited on our hunt, the Perry Hall mansion, then the covered bridge by the old mills in Kings...

The Crow
Hi, My experience happened about five years ago, on the day that my father-in-law died. I used to work at the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital as a Sterilising Technician, my department was located on level two, which was at the time a dungeon (it has since been renovated) and the only way you could get in there was via t...

Hospital Visit and Stinky Fish
In November 2001, my grandfather (mom's dad) was taken from the nursing home to the hospital. He was not responding well, and most of this was from old age. I would drive the 45 minutes one way to visit him in the hospital after work every other night. I just had this feeling that if I didn't spend as much time with hi...

Ghost in the Mirror (2)
This story starts when we were posted to Pindi. I was 12 years old. There were no army houses available and we had to rent one. The house is two storey, rather strangely built. The owners lived on the upper floor and we were supposed to move into the lower one. However for some reason they decided to live on the lower ...

Where We Belong
Last year, I was going through a difficult time with my mother. We argued a lot and, to put it bluntly, we just didn't get along. So, at this time, back in September, I was thirteen and considering moving in with my dad and he was out looking for houses. I aspire to be an architect and have a small interest in interior...

Shepherdstown, WV
When I first began attending Shepherd College in Shepherdstown, WV, I loved the freedom I had from my parents. As my savings account dwindled down to nothing, I begged my parents for money so that I could come home for the holidays. They told me to get a job, and since my spending habits had much to be desired, I spent...

Since the age of one, I have always accompanied my father to work at the hospital. To protect the hospital's reputation I will not say the name.

Albert Hotel Ghosts
I've had many ghost experiences in my life but the 'Albert Hotel Ghosts' are the ones I tend to remember the most, probably because I have actually seen them as clear as day. Most times when I see ghosts I look back to make sure I'm not seeing things and they are gone, or I see them in my side visions. Albert Hotel is...

Man With No Face
The fist time I experienced this encounter with the man who has no face was about a month ago. The first time was when I was home alone. Here are all of my encounters with him so far: My brother had a baseball game and I didn't want to go because I had homework to do. I was at my computer, humming like always when I f...

A Drowned Love
I just bought 20 acres of nice land and we got it for very cheap. The Old man wouldn't tell us why it was so cheap, he just shook his head and said "please don't ask". So we took it on upon ourselves to find out. We went to the local library and looked though the old newspapers. And then we came across a story that ma...

An Obvious Message
From time to time, my wife (Stephany) and I will have strange occurrences and have gotten in the habit of saying "well, someone is trying to get your attention". Yesterday, as I sat on my bed watching TV, an empty Dr. Pepper bottle fell over, slowly rotated 90 degrees and slowly rolled off the table in front of me. The...

One Sunday Afternoon
One Sunday afternoon, I was taking my dog for a walk at my favorite park. I love this particular park because it is adjacent to a large church and the park itself has about 50 acres surrounding a lake. Around the lake wraps a 3 mile paved pathway, on the outer reaches of the path are woods. Anyway, as we walked down th...

Just Dropping In
My house is relatively young, there's no dark past, no murders, no suicides, nothing of the sort, so it was rather unusual when something decided to visit us. My mother and I both are incredibly interested in the paranormal and are completely open to the possibility that there's something else out there, so it was no ...

My Own Home By The Sea
In 1983, I was a sophomore at the University of Oklahoma in Norman, Oklahoma, and in July I moved into this great basement apartment there. The apartment was appealing to me from the start, as it was a large, furnished 1-bedroom, with its own private entrance. The apartment was in an old, 3-story, brick apartment build...

The Cherry-Pipe Incident and Others
My mother ran a small Daycare center out of our first home, until I was about six. This was before my parents separated and she was forced to seek work elsewhere. It was a nice house, sunny yellow, old enough to have been converted from house to apartments to house again over the span of its life. It was still apartmen...

Killingbeck Mary
In the mid eighties, I was a Staff Nurse at an old hospital called Killingbeck. Many years ago, it was a sanatorium for people suffering from chest diseases like TB. Consequently, ward 1 and ward 2 had large crescent shaped balconies where patients were pushed out on their beds to take in the fresh air. I worked night...

My friend told me to go to Rebecca, she couldn’t stand to see me suffering anymore; I needed to know if my son Peter was alright and at peace. I didn’t know what to expect, she could be a fake for all I know, but I had to try. Even if I came away with just a little hope it was better then nothing. My husband Vince dro...
