The Student That Never Graduated
I was in my early forties when I decided to attend College. I choose a local private college that I could make a easy commute. The college was formed as a womans' finishing school in the early 1800's. This ghost story begins in a certain large room divided in two by a large folding sliding door. With the divider close...

And The Baby Cried
It was the early 1970s. We lived in the Alberta city of Edmonton with our two young children. My husband was an unemployed laborer. We could no longer afford the rent on our apartment, so I went house hunting. I finally found an old house we could afford. Once white, it had long stood vacant and now the paint was peel...

House Built On A Graveyard
Hi, my name is Ricky Fear, and I live in a haunted house. My house, like all of the others on my street, was built on a graveyard. All of the houses on my street are bi-levels.

The White Morning on Red Ice
There's a world out there. Not like this one. I guess the first time you relate to it, it becomes part of your identity.

Burned Alive
A lot of scary stuff has happened in my life, and even though this happened to me about 12 years ago I can still remember as if it happened yesterday. When I was 8-years-old, my family and I went to my uncles wedding in Mexico. When the wedding was over my uncle had arranged for us to stay at a friends house. When we...

It Tried To Kill Me
I grew up in a small town in Alberta, Canada. I was always skeptical about ghosts, paranormal, and the likes. But I would still help my friends hold seances and talk about ghost stories and urban legends. It was fun ?. until I had a couple of encounters myself. And they were not pleasant encounters either!!! The house...

I Named Him Albert
I have been working in my office for about 6 months now. When I first started working at "ADV" nothing out of the ordinary happened. About three or four months ago I started hearing things running inside the walls around my office. I thought it was a mouse, so I asked the maintenance crew to check for mice and put down...

Ophelia
Let me be blunt. Despite what I saw, I still do not believe in ghosts. I simply do not dwell on nor attempt to explain what happened. When I was about fourteen we moved into a new home built on what at one time had been an old creek bed. The creek had been channeled many years before to a man-made gully about seventy ...

Old Crockery
I would like to begin my story with important facts that lead up to my experience. When I was 9 years old I had a hernia operation. The incision was painful, as it left me with a slight limp on my left side, but what was even more painful was the ridicule and teasing I received from family members. Weird Al Yankovic h...

Haunting At Old Farmhouse
I n the late 1970s, when I was nine, my Mom and I moved to a large, square farmhouse in rural southwestern Wisconsin. I don't know the age of the house, but it was probably constructed in the early 20th century. The house was plain, almost severe, on the outside but there were some nice details inside: mainly the anti...

Ghost Runner
I generally tell people that I don't believe in ghosts, and honestly, I try very hard not to believe in them. What I don't tell most people is that I'm being haunted. When I was a university student, I saw a ghost. Unlike most ghost sightings, I was not alone. My brother and a close friend and I went for a late-night ...

My Haunted Home
When the hall door slammed shut, our puzzled eyes were answered with "It’s just the wind." We grew familiar with that sound. Over time it would become an every day occurrence. While young our parents told us "NO, there aren't such things as bogeymen and ghosts". But my children ask me the same questions that I asked my...

Last Of Winters Wood
Some time ago, I attended a gathering of family and friends. Like many gatherings and parties, the men were in one room with the ladies in another. Throughout the night, our manly conversations ranged from topics of politics, economics, and the occasional dirty joke for comic relief. Soon the conversation turned to gho...

The Schoolhouse Watcher
Six years ago, when I was ten years old, my older cousin, Erica, convinced me to go creekwalking. She lives in Harford county, a place that has many farms and creeks around it. We walked around a few trails in the woods enjoying the scenery when the sun started to set. I whined and complained that we should be going b...

It Wanted My Baby
Hi everyone, ghosts are one thing when they scare you. It's a whole new ballgame when they want your baby... This actually happened to my son and me in 1981. I suggest you turn some lights on. My oldest son was 18 months old and my wife (ex-wife now) was pregnant. We were living in a small guesthouse that sat about 10...

The Growler
It happened one summer "night" when I was 12 years old. For some reason I woke up at 4am in the morning with the freakiest feeling, like I was not alone. So I reached over to the side of my bed and turned on my radio (thinking listening to music would make me feel better and that I'd eventually fall back to sleep). Wel...

My New Friend Rick
I actually have a very short story and a not so short story.

Growing up my only sister and I had our own rooms they were ...

Hello. Before you read this, I have to say that it is quite long, but there is a lot to tell here. I beg your patience. None of this is scary, just weird.

The Thing On The Porch
My Grandmother was from South Carolina and used to regale us with her stories of "haints" as she called them. It seemed that nearly every house she lived in had some sort of spirit in it. This is the story that really gave me the shivers: My Aunt Bea and Uncle George once rented a big two storey house out in the count...

My Mother Still Watches Out For Me

Poobie's Love
I grew up in a very rural area of Minnesota. A creek served as the boundary between our land and miles of woods on the other end. It was here when I first met "Poobie". I was 9 when some older kids down the road threw a sack into the creek and ran off while I was hunting frogs. I fetched the sack only to find a cold we...

Just Another Day At The Office

The area where the hospital is located is a more historical area of Downtown Baltimore. The hospital itself is well over 150 years old and the building where I worked was built in the late 20's o...

This is a story my father told me and I have heard many times over the years - even when he tells other people when I'm not there, he has no reason to lie! My dad used to work on the old ships on the canal - very often night shifts. The engine rooms - as most of you know- used to be down a ladder - only one way in and...

Permission To Enter Not Granted
This is not a Halloween story. It's simply one of the many true experiences I have had with the unexplained. Some of the weirdest things have happened to me during the daytime. This particular episode occurred in the morning. Actually it was about 6:30 a.m. on a weekday. My (then) boyfriend had just gone to work and i...
