2,900 | The Family of Father Arthur Glenn | I live in a small town in Wiltshire, which is in the South of the UK. Our town dates back to the 1400's. The town has many ghost stories but this one is told the most. I am told, that over the years the story has changed some what, but I will try my best.

2,901 | Wedding Bells | The story I am about to relate is an "urban legend" from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.
For a little background, Bethlehem used to be a gold mine back during WWII, for it housed the Bethlehem Steel, a mass producer of military goods.

2,902 | The Brookwood Hotel | I recently ran across a fascinating website that reminded me of the only ghost story I've ever been a party to.

2,905 | My Fathers Visit | One night around 3:00AM, I believe my father's spirit had returned to visit me.
It all began when I was 11-years-old. My father passed away in October of '94 due to a fatal car crash.

Soon my answers would be answered in o... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/my-fathers-visit |

2,909 | Our Murky Room | This isn't especially scary, but it unnerved me, as it happened just last night.
My husband and I were in our office and had been having a deep heart wrenching conversation about us and our life. It got late and we decided to go to bed. We continued our talk while laying there.

2,912 | The Room Across The Hall | About ten years back,my parents and I moved into a new house in California. When we picked out bedrooms, my parents chose the master bedroom right next to the bathroom and I chose a room across the hall from them.

2,915 | Ghost Road | This story is a classic in my area. We've been telling it for years upon years and it still spooks me out when I hear it. I suppose that's because I know the whole truth of it.

2,917 | Snowball | Before I begin, there are a few things that I must make clear.
Practically my whole life (as long as I can remember anyways) I seem to be somewhat "drawn" to the supernatural. In other words, I seem to attract spirits because I've seen them and had unexplainable occurence since I was quite young. This story is 100 per... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/snowball |

2,922 | Invisible Co Worker | In the four years I've worked in the office where I do, there have been regular occurrences which I feel can only be called paranormal. At first, they could be passed off as my imagination, or by some logical explanation, but eventually, it went beyond that.

2,925 | Something About That Room | It does seem as though only certain people are "sensitive" to paranormal experiences though it is a mystery to me as to how those individuals are selected or by whom or what.

2,971 | Is it Just Coincidence? | I believe in ghost but I always believed if you don't open yourself to them, they don't show themselves to you. I don't think I have done anything to provoke a spirit to visit me. I've always believed that??now I don't know.
Well I've been living in my present house for about 5 years and until about a year ago, my hus... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/is-it-just-coincidence%3F |
2,972 | Family Ties | Part of this story was told to me by my sister, so you'll have to take her word for it, too.
When I met my husband, it was love at first sight. Well, at least for me-it was love for him a few weeks later. :) Anyway, when I had first met him, he had told me that his mom had passed away about a year before.
One night, ... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/family-ties |
2,973 | Spiritual Magnetism | All my life spirits have been coming to me. Now that I am an adult they don't visit as frequently as they did when I was a child. My parents explained it as having an overactive imagination and watching too much TV. I don't think so as I still get spooked now (as an adult) and again when a spirits reveals itself to me.... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/spiritual-magnetism |
2,974 | Stalked By Death? | My story may be a bit common, but it's had a major effect on me. Since being a young child, I can always remember seeing a black figure around me. Sometime it would dart around corners, or be in the corner of my eye, and as I grew older, to appear in plain sight.
I would usually see this figure when staying at my fath... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/stalked-by-death%3F |
2,975 | Ship At Sea | This isn't my story, but I'll do my best to tell it. This happened to my significant other, Jeremy, when he was eight or nine years old. At the time, he lived in what is known as a "saltbox house." It's a style of home that was popular in the suburbs of Chicago during the 1920s and 1930s. It's called a saltbox house be... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/ship-at-sea |
2,976 | Angel In The Kitchen | About a year ago, my mother was going to visit her aunt, Frieda. Frieda and her husband lived in a small house in a nearby town and collected antiques. My mother loved to visit and see what new things they had picked up and to help her aunt plant flowers in her extensive flower garden.
Upon arriving at the house, my m... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/angel-in-the-kitchen |
2,977 | The Cats Came With The House | I bought the house I currently live in seven years ago when I was single and a first time home buyer. I was on a tight budget and most of the houses I could afford had something wrong with them. When I saw this house I fell in love with it.
There is nothing remarkable about the house; it is like thousands built all ov... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/the-cats-came-with-the-house |
2,978 | Oscar | When I look back on my freshman year at college, I sometimes have difficulty believing that I, or the people I associated with, emerged from it alive. Most of the drama and difficulty arose from my sleeping patterns.
Before college, I had never been a particularly active sleeper, but soon after my arrival at Ithaca Co... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/oscar |
2,979 | I Know It Was There | We had been living in the split-level house for just over 2 years, and until then I hadn't noticed anything strange.
I was fourteen at the time, it was a warm summer night and I had left my windows open when I went to bed, to let in a breeze. A banging noise woke me up and I turned over in my bed to see it was my curt... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/i-know-it-was-there |
2,980 | The Ghost of A Jockey | My mom always told me one thing about my grandad who died when I was very young, that he never lied to anyone and was a simple man.
She grew up in a little town in India which was well known for its horse racing, and events would be eagerly attended by the locals and tourists alike who loved her little town for its co... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/the-ghost-of-a-jockey |
2,981 | The Final Walk Home | When I was seventeen my father was hurt in an industrial accident and became permanently disabled. Because of this my parents had to look for less expensive housing accommodation. After several months of looking they finally found an older home in what had become a decidedly lower middle class neighborhood. But, as the... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/the-final-walk-home |
2,982 | Union Street House | In 1999 my boyfriend and I moved in together in an apartment in Fredericton, NB, Canada (right across from Tim Horton’s and Diary Queen for those of you in the area).
The house consisted of 4 apartments. We first moved into a tiny one bedroom apartment in the back of the house and I had an eerie feeling about it and t... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/union-street-house |
2,983 | Seeing Through Me | This happened to me about six years ago. And it is not really a ghost story but it is still a very strange experience.
One day I was on my way home from work and as I was standing on the busy escalator, giving access to the large indoor shopping centre and the central train station, the man standing in front of me tur... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/seeing-through-me |
2,984 | Ginny | I belong to a paranormal Internet community. For months I had been reading of everyone else's experiences, yet, I had none of my own. I decided I wanted to find out what they were talking about. So, on June 30th of this year I traveled to Jefferson, Texas (about 3 hours east of Dallas right at the Louisiana border). Th... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/ginny |
2,985 | Reflections | I was catching a bus home late one night, around 12:00 pm, from a friends house. I boarded the bus and noticed it was empty other than the driver, so I made my way up to the back and sat about two seats from of the end. I sat down just as the bus took off down the quiet road.
As I was sitting quietly thinking about my... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/reflections |
2,986 | RAF Ghost | My friends Susie and Jay live in RAF (Royal Air Force) Quarters in Middlesex in England and the experiences belong mostly to them. They've never really mentioned anything before until a couple weeks ago when Susie and I were chatting when the subject of ghosts came and she told me that the hand prints were back! 'What ... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/raf-ghost |
2,987 | Fuzzy Black Things | I come from a small rural town in Oklahoma. This story I will never forget. I'm a 49 year old lady, but when I was around 12 years old, I had a very real, very scary experience that will stay with me forever!
I had a childhood friend I'll call Crystal. Crystal was a tomboy, loved to climb trees, play basketball, fish,... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/fuzzy-black-things |
2,988 | Nevada Landing Scare | The only logical explanation for this has been disproved, so...
Last time I went to Nevada (Trip to Vegas, but we stayed in Jean... the Nevada Landing). After I was done with the arcade, I went up to the hotel room by myself. Then I got a call from my cousin asking me to go up to his room (1 floor above us). So I walk... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/nevada-landing-scare |
2,989 | The Final Goodbye | This isn't really a ghost story but it might qualify as something strange enough to go on this site.
Well, 3 years ago on Thanksgiving Eve (I guess that is what you would call it) I went to bed as usual. I had 2 dogs at the time and both were in good health for being so old. Toby was 11 and Tory was 9. I was 12 at the... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/the-final-goodbye |
2,990 | Ghost Story From Port Arthur | I was on a ghost tour with my wife last year, at Port Arthur, an old Penal Colony in southern Tasmania, Australia. We had booked to be on the tour and had a sizeable group, and a tour guide. We also had lanterns to add to the mood of our ghostly tour.
After hearing several scary stories and entering dark, foreboding h... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/ghost-story-from-port-arthur |
2,991 | A Visit From The Other Side | This story was told to me by my dad and I absolutely believe it. I'll start with some background information as it is necessary to understand this story.
My dad's Aunt Gene's visits were always unexpected and she would usually show up in the middle of the night to my Grandma and Grandpa's house.
One night when my dad... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/a-visit-from-the-other-side |
2,992 | Been In To See The Baby | My mother always told this story and swore it was the God's honest truth.
When she was pregnant with her first child (my sister), the whole family was very excited because this was to be the first grandchild on my mom's side of the family.
My mom's favorite Aunt, Aunt Sue, was very involved and thrilled with my mom's... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/been-in-to-see-the-baby |
2,993 | Children On The Playground/My Protector | Ihave trouble sleeping so I'm always up real late at nights.
One night I heard a noise in my brothers play area. I looked out there from my upstairs window (that over looked the whole yard) and I saw several children playing.
One was singing on the swing set and another behind him pushing him. One was in the sand pit... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/children-on-the-playground%2Fmy-protector |
2,994 | What Is It With Me? | I have a few stories too tell. But, I will make them short and to the point.
My name is Jenn and I am now 25. When I was five yrs. old I had my first experience. I moved to my grandmothers with my mom and brother who was four at the time. I always had a creepy feeling about her house. Especially at night.
One night w... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/what-is-it-with-me%3F |
2,995 | Flush Spirit | At the current moment I fear that my bathroom is haunted I don't know by who or why but this is the story:
When my family first moved into the house things happened straight away, at all hours in the night the toilet would flush, the light would come on and the shower would spray on and off, on and off.
At first we t... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/flush-spirit |
2,996 | Red Say's Goodbye | My mother told me about the following occurrence some years ago. I recently discovered this site and I love it, and after reading some stories, decided to submit my mom's. I called her just tonight to verify the details. Here goes.
For starters, my mother is every bit the skeptic. She will look for an explanation for ... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/red-say's-goodbye |
2,997 | Generations of Spirits | I must start this tale by saying first off that all names have been changed to protect the people involved.
This story takes place many years ago, around 1991 if my memory serves correct, but I can remember it like it was yesterday. This story contains my entire family, which will be listed. Louise Farreria my mother,... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/generations-of-spirits |
2,998 | Closet Ghost | It all started 15 years ago when my grandparents moved to Virden, New Mexico. They found an old, creepy looking house, but it was the only one for sale, so they had no choice but to buy it.
A few months after, my grandpa went to work for a construction company and was on the road a lot. Now, nothing would happen when ... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/closet-ghost |
2,999 | The Dark Ones | I will swear by these on my death bed and to this day they haunt me...
I'm not the best writer, I guess I don't write many stories, what your about to hear is no story. Its plain fact. Something I witnessed as a child while growing up. There is a lot to these stories. I guess the whole reason I never tell them is I'm ... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/the-dark-ones |
