The Little Boy In The Attic
This story was told to me by my mother. Now mind you, I come from the most average family imaginable; in fact, my mother would not even tell me the story until I was 23 because she did not want to freak me out. Anyway, here is the story. My family (on my mother's side) has always been "sensitive," especially my one pa...

An Evening in the Park
This is a true account of what happened to my kids and I on 3-23-00, around 9:30pm. We heard from some friends of my son that a local park is haunted by a lady holding a baby, best seen when it's foggy. Well it wasn't foggy last night, no moon but very clear and alot of stars. Chilly enough to see your breath. I park...

Daddy's Bass Fiddle
Ihave kept this "buried" deep in my memory for a long time, so I'm going to try to remember most of the details. In the early 1970's my father worked for the steel mill during the day and practiced church- jazz music at night. Most evenings, if it wasn't a late shift, my father would return home from work at around t...

Rocking Winds
I'm writing this story in the hopes that someone will hear it and believe what I'm saying, for I've faced too much ridicule on account of my supernatural experiences. I've always had a sensitivity to the spirits of the dead, but one afternoon I experienced something that exceeded all my previous encounters. I was out...

Haunted Hill
My friend and I were hiking on my grandmother's property, a rocky, steep hill behind my grandmother's house. We were looking for interesting rocks and arrowheads, when we heard sobbing, we assumed that my little sister had followed us up and had hurt herself, so we looked for her. Then we heard whispers, a girl and a B...

The Ghost of Jones Hall
Indiana State University has a few reputed entities, but the most recent is from an incident in Jones Residence Hall back in 1991. A group of 4 students had spent the night drinking and partying. For whatever reason they got the bright idea to "Elevator Surf". For anyone who has not heard of this, it is where you climb...

House with a History
My sister and her family live in Ohio in a rambling 4 story house which was built in the later 1800's. It has served as a physician's office, mortuary, funeral parlor, and then a residence for the past 30 years. She grew up there for the most part. It is a monstrosity of a structure, with rooms off of every which way a...

Tenth Floor Trouble
I'm what you would call psychically deaf, for the most part. As a general rule, I wouldn't know a psychic experience if it hit me on the head. (I should know, I've been told this by sensitive friends of mine.) But every so often, even I can tell when something's going on. Case in point was the night we all went up to B...

Welcome Home Emm
As a child I would always have this disturbing reoccurring dream. It wasn't particularly scary and really didn't make much sense but I would have this dream many times as far back as I can remember. In the dream I was a very small child, maybe five or six. I would be walking slowly up a long sidewalk lined on both sid...

The Mill
Near where I live in Virginia there is an old water-powered mill. It hasn't been in use since about the 1920's (I think). It was boarded up and the front door was chained shut. Needless to say this makes it a point on interest for teenagers. The only means of entrance was by the second story window, either by climbing ...
