1,900 | Evil Watcher | When I first moved out of home and had my very first flat, the last thing I expected was for it to be haunted.
It was only a small 2 bedroom flat in Leeton, NSW, made of brick and rendered with only 2 external windows.
I moved in with my fiance and we made friends with our neighbours quickly.
From the first night we... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/evil-watcher |
1,901 | Taps On The Window & The Green Man | I am very interested in ghost stories and tales of peoples unusual experiences and regularly read the postings on this site. The story I would like to share is my only 'experience' of anything unusual and so I couldn't say that I am totally convinced of paranormal 'goings on'. However, I sincerely hope that the experie... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/taps-on-the-window-%26-the-green-man |
1,902 | The Little Girl Who Changed My Life | I couldn't say that I didn't believe in supernatural occurrences. Or even that I was sceptic. But I usually need some kind of evidence when people claim to have seen some otherworldly activity. So when my friends or family would start talking about legends about ghosts and demons, or even their own experiences with str... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/the-little-girl-who-changed-my-life |
1,903 | Sensitivity | So, ghosts are unimaginably malicious and supposedly caught only at night when we are alone and vulnerable to imagination and the suggestions loneliness can inspire.
Yet, I have never known this to be accurate.
We live in the smallest town in Newfoundland and maybe a little isolated but there is a series of encounter... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/sensitivity |
1,904 | Strange Experiences | I have been an avid reader of this site for about a year now and still can not get enough. I have submitted a story about a year ago and would now like to share some other experiences I have had.

1,905 | A Snowy Night | Years ago when I was younger (circa 1985), my friends and I used to go parking with our girlfriends down a deserted old dirt road that was close to a river. We called it "The Place." It was kind of a spooky place so the girls would, of course, be hanging all over you because they were frightened (just what we wanted th... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/a-snowy-night |
1,906 | Nightmares? | I actually don't know how old I was when the events I am about to write about took place. I do know that I had not yet started school and I started kindergarten when I was five years old.

1,907 | La Llorona and My Mom | I know there is another version of La Llorona on this site, but I would like to give a clearer version of it, and also a true story that happened to my mother and her family when she was about 5 or 6.

1,908 | My Sister's Ouija Experience | About eight years ago, the following incident happened to my older sister. Before her husband retired, my sister bought and ran a small pawn shop to "keep myself busy," as she put it. The man from whom she bought the store was not very friendly, and had no business sense, so she was able to obtain it for very little.

1,909 | Isabella | It is often a habit for someone to ramble about seeing a loved ones face on a wall or in the bedroom after they have passed away. We often believe that we see these images of the people we have lost because we don't want to forget them.
I have never had a fascination with the dead, and I rarely listen to ghost stories... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/isabella |
1,910 | The Gypsy Graveyard | There is this 'out of the way' graveyard located in Crown Point, Indiana that is often called the Gypsy Graveyard by the residents of Lake County. The name was from a book about hauntings, saying how a group of Gypsies were mistreated by the townspeople and put a curse upon the land where the cemetery currently is.

1,911 | Misadventures of A Haunted Life | My earliest experiences with the supernatural occurred when I was ten years old. There were three bedrooms, so my brother and I were each able to have our own rooms. Not only did he often tell me stories of a "ten foot man" that came to terrify him at night, but I was also subjected to very uneasy feelings when I staye... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/misadventures-of-a-haunted-life |
1,912 | What Was She Looking For? | When I was a teenager growing up in small-town New Hampshire, my friends and I used to enjoy "skinny dipping" in a beautiful old quarry out in the middle of the woods.

1,914 | Grandparents Do Come Back | My story all starts in summer of 1994. We were living in a huge, 2 storey house with 5 bedrooms. My grandparents lived in the rear or the bottom storey and my mum and I had our rooms upstairs. This event took place in the top storey.

1,915 | Home Alone (4) | One night a few years ago I was home alone, being alone in my house can be kinda scary especially at night. My friends tell me that they don't like my house for that reason.
Anyway, the power had gone out early that night and there wasn't much to do. So I picked up a book and started to read it, I had to read by a bat... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/home-alone-(4) |
1,916 | I Never Got Too Comfortable | A couple of years ago, my boyfriend and I bought a house in the suburbs of Atlanta, but before that, we lived in a one level duplex much closer to the city. The home was built in the 1950's and numerous people lived there before we moved in the fall of 1998.

1,917 | Hauntings on College Avenue | To begin my story, I live in a small college town in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. It can be classified as a sleepy town. But apparently, not all of it's residents are willing to go to sleep. Before I begin my story, I'd like to explain a little about the setting. After my parents divorced, my mum took my sister and ... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/hauntings-on-college-avenue |
1,918 | Uncle Keith | I have been a surgical nurse for many years. As such I've stood and watched helplessly when there was nothing that could be done to save a person. Young or old, it is always tragic when someone draws their last breath. But this story isn't about one of my patients. It's about my dear uncle.

1,919 | Biddeford Theatre Ghost | A previous writer told the story of the "Ghost of City Hall."

1,920 | Guardian Angel (3) | A few years ago, a friend of mine was on her way back from work. She crossed on a main road at the pedestrian crossing of course as it was peak hour.

1,921 | Lab Ghost | My sister's partner used to work in a lab where they analyse chemicals and substances. He will never forget his experience for as long as he lives.

1,922 | My Old House (5) | Back in Laos while I was growing up, my parents were very poor farmers, so we lived in a hand made house.

1,927 | Ghostly Runner | This did not happen to me, it actually happened to my brother in December 2003 and he is not a believer in things like this, so for him to have admitted that something strange was going on is a big thing!

1,929 | A Sons Gift | Ever since I was a little girl I've been followed by "spirits" or "energies" whatever you would like to call them. I would play with the nice ones, and would hide from the ones that scared me. Unfortunately, I seemed to have attracted one very nasty little bugger.
I am married now, and my husband and I live in an apar... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/a-sons-gift |
1,930 | My Protector (2) | I never used to believe in ghosts. To me they were just cartoon creatures to scare little children with white sheets for bodies and big black holes for mouths and eyes. But now I do believe in ghosts. Why? Because I saw one.

1,932 | The Moving Picture | This experience actually happened to me a few hours ago.
Well, for a long time I felt that there was something not quite right about my best friend's house. It's an old southern style house on the marsh, but it's only about 20 years old.

1,934 | The Sleeping, Snoring Spirit in the Library | I had purchased an older colonial home in Stamford, Conn.

1,938 | Lake Tahoe Cabin | During Spring Break of 2000, my family and I went to Lake Tahoe for a vacation. At the time I was 17 years old, and I didn't really think that ghosts existed.

1,942 | In My Driveway | This is a story that my mind somehow managed to push out.
I never thought I'd forget it at the time, but even the most bizarre things tend to get pushed out to make room for the more recent dramas of everyday life.
