3,671 | Blood Relatives | In 1981, my new husband and I and our newborn baby had just moved into a very 1st floor apartment on a very quiet dead end street not too far from where I had grown up.The landlady when giving us the key, explained how the second floor was empty so we would pretty much have the entire yard to ourselves for a while. She... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/blood-relatives |
3,672 | A Haunting? | There's a strange thing about my house. I'm not sure whether or not there actually is something haunting it, but I do know something is very weird.
My cousin and I were home alone in my room and I locked the door because we were changing. When we were done I tried to unlock the door-but the lock bounced back by itself... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/a-haunting%3F |
3,673 | Mommy's Room | When I was a little girl my Grandparents owned a huge house. I used to love to stay in my mothers old bedroom which had the door to the attic in it.
I was always told stories about that room and the attic but I never believed them until I was about 10 years old and had many experiences of my own.
My parents wanted to... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/mommy's-room |
3,674 | Out Of Order | This happened about 2 years ago in my college. It was during finals week, and I was there late studying with a group of kids. We all decided to head home as it was getting late and the campus was becoming more emptier. As I was walking back to the car, I had the urge to go to the bathroom ? so rather than waiting anoth... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/out-of-order |
3,675 | Reciprocal Demon | This is one of the most chilling stories that I have ever heard. It actually happened to my sister's boyfriend's father (I'll call him Bill) when he was a teenager.
It seems that he and his best buddy were hanging out one evening, doing what your average teenagers do, i.e. drinking beer and listening to music. They we... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/reciprocal-demon |
3,676 | Sounds | Ihave two stories. Both of these experiences happened years ago, in my house.
First story:
My brother and I were home alone. We were playing cards and listening to music in our parents bedroom, when I started to hear our stairs creaking and thought someone was coming up our stairs(we live on the 2nd floor). I turned ... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/sounds |
3,677 | The haunted House | When I was younger, in the third grade, I moved into a house with my mother, my sister and my mother's boyfriend. He had owned the house for years.

Soon after we moved in there was a... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/the-haunted-house |
3,678 | Me | This is my life, and I'm going to tell you what happens in my life and my home.

3,679 | Ghostly Home Encounters | This might end up being rather long, but I've had a lot of weird happenings in my house.
I guess I should start at the beginning.
As a child, I experienced a lot of strange phenomenon in our home. It's might seem odd to have any ghostly activity because when we moved in, the house was brand new. This was in 1988 and ... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/ghostly-home-encounters |
3,680 | The Locked Door | Lately, I have developed a keen interest regarding paranormal experiences. Since I have never experienced any encounters with the supernatural (I'm still not sure whether or not I should be grateful for this factor), I have had to rely on my boyfriend for the ghost stories I so long to hear.
I find it worth mentioning... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/the-locked-door |
3,681 | Black Coated Man | Hi. I’m back again, and this time I have been digging around for any good stories from my family and friends. True stories of course, at least by my knowledge. Until recently I wasn’t sure if there was anything particularly special about my family, but long conversations with my mother have come to reveal that my famil... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/black-coated-man |
3,682 | Husband Satisfied, All's fine | This story actually happened to my mother.

3,683 | The Hands Around the Bed | I have been living in the same house for the past 12 years. When I was 5 years old, in the year of 1991, I was just finished watching the movie "The Little Mermaid", and went to bed with my mom.

But I really think it was just my... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/the-hands-around-the-bed |

3,685 | The Ghost of Theatre Three | This a true ghost story. I know that it's true because it recently happened to me.
I have always been a skeptic of the paranormal. My mind has always operated in a factual way. I back up anything unusual with proof and simple logic. There has been little in life that I had no explanation for. Ghosts and goblins have a... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/the-ghost-of-theatre-three |
3,686 | Lullaby | Ihad an experience when I was 10 years old. I am now 27...it has been 17 years since I have recounted this story to anyone, other than my family.

3,688 | Ghost With No Eyes | When I was a little girl, my aunt and uncle moved into an old, two-story house and I stayed the night with my cousin. The house was so big that they didn't use the second floor, so my cousin and I had a toy room up there.
We were up there playing and I was standing in front of the door, he was directly in front of me ... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/ghost-with-no-eyes |
3,689 | A Sharp and Painful Cry | The summer of 1998 is one I will not forget.
Big Mac set a home run record in a St. Louis uniform and my cheap little apartment needed a complete air conditioning overhaul. It was also the time that my family and I lost my Mom.

3,690 | Honesty Is It's Own Reward | Ihave to admit that I stopped believing in ghosts when I was about seven or eight, when I began making up ghost stories to scare my little brother and sisters. But something happened to me several years ago that I simply can't explain away by saying that it was a coincidence, a freak of nature, or a hoax, and I simply ... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/honesty-is-it's-own-reward |
3,691 | A True Story (1) | It's hard to believe that it has been over fifty years since that night in Grosse Point, Michigan that so changed my life.
I was a young college student, just out of the army, studying psychology under the G.I. Bill at an adult college in Detroit, Michigan. I had mastered the art of hypnotism and in fact was considere... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/a-true-story-(1) |
3,692 | Little Girl (5) | We have only been living here in this home for about 1-2 years, when this incident occurred.

3,693 | Campfire Story | This happened a few years ago when I was travelling through the UK. It probably has a perfectly rational explanation, but still who really knows? I can promise that at least it is true, and it makes a great campfire story for me to use.
My husband and I spent a couple of nights camping in a wonderful field on a proper... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/campfire-story |
3,694 | Believer | This is my own personal account.
When I was around 15, my mom and dad got divorced and my mom, younger sister and I moved into this old house that had been converted into apartments.

3,696 | Matt's Woods | This story takes place over the course of a few years and to my knowledge continues to this day. The events are centered around the woods that surround my friend Matt's house, which is in Rocks State Park in Harford County, Maryland.
Harford County, at least the northern part, is still fairly rural and Rocks is pretty... | https://www.castleofspirits.com/ghost-stories/matt's-woods |
3,697 | The House Next Door | My Aunt (who wants to be anonymous) lived in a very old house in Northern California (Santa Clara County.) She absolutely loved that house.
