5,400 | The Ghosts of Iverson’s Pits | It was early September 2000, and I was on a solo trip to Gettysburg for 4 days. It was my second trip there, because I had decided to take in the sites I had missed previously and get a better understanding of the sequence of the battle. I had with me what I found to be the best self-guided tour source in print, Gettys... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-ghosts-of-iversons-pits/ |
5,401 | The Ghost Who Doesn't Like Men | The year that I moved into my current residence, I always had a feeling that something was a bit off, to the point that I didn't even want to move in. But I was pregnant with my second child and this house was affordable.
Immediately after I moved in, strange things starting happening. My husband at the time (soon to ... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-ghost-who-doesnt-like-men/ |
5,402 | The Old Aunt's House | When I was nine years old my family moved into an old two-story farm house in the country. When we moved into this house it was at least a hundred years old. This house was in need of repairs, but my mother could see this place was going to make a perfect, happy home. It ended up being a haunted home as well.
My mom ... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-old-aunts-house/ |
5,403 | The Ghost of Opus | As I lay in bed, waiting for my snooze to expire, I heard my cat, Rhythm, eating from her dish in the bathroom. When the radio blared to life again, it startled her and I discovered that she was actually next to me on the bed. I realized that it must be Opus.
Opus, my wonderful black and white cat (named after that fa... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-ghost-of-opus/ |
5,404 | Dad's Last Visit | It was approximately 11 PM and my mother and I had just returned home from the hospital visiting my father. He had been in and out of the hospital due to diabetes, heart condition, and pneumonia. My mother was in her bedroom getting ready for bed. I was in my room, around the corner from hers, fiddling with the radio n... | https://ghostvillage.com/dads-last-visit/ |
5,405 | The Glowing Window | I have had spirit encounters all of my life, and have come to enjoy the majority of them. Sometimes, though, they are not so pleasant and I find them highly annoying, though not frightening. One of the most annoying fellows visited me several times while I was living in a duplex in the foothills of the Angeles forest.

5,406 | Grandmere's Gift | I was told my Grandmere (as we say in Cajun for Grandmother) was always "odd." She passed away when I was seven, but I can remember as far back as three years old her always telling me, "Cher, you got the gift, I done give it to you. Now, use it, I tell you." Of course, as a small child I never knew what she meant. But... | https://ghostvillage.com/grandmeres-gift/ |
5,407 | Grandma's Dusty Sign | Just the other day I was using a new digital camera and while playing around with it I took a picture of another picture of my grandmother who has been gone for 10 years come this March. Well, later in the day my mother said she had put the copied picture into our game room because Grandma would have liked that room. M... | https://ghostvillage.com/grandmas-dusty-sign/ |
5,408 | The Ghostly Roommate | I moved into a Victorian house a couple of years ago with my family. I already thought there was something up with the house. It's got this eerie feeling to it, but my parents said it was my imagination, so I kind of left it at that.
But so many things have happened. I saw a woman in black standing on the stairs while... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-ghostly-roommate/ |
5,409 | Captain Tony's Saloon's Haunted Bathroom | I was told that the women's bathroom in Captain Tony's was haunted but I didn't believe it. I was dared to go in. As soon as I walked in, my head felt extremely heavy and I walked out. After a while I went in tried to go in the first stall — it was locked and I figured someone was in there that I didn't notice, but the... | https://ghostvillage.com/captain-tonys-saloons-haunted-bathroom/ |
5,410 | Grandma's Last Call? | My grandmother died and was buried in Ohio. We barely made it to the funeral. Here is a copy of the letter I wrote to my family about our encounter.
Greetings Kin,
Buckle your seat belts and get ready to take a trip to the twilight zone.
I was very intrigued with the premise for the movie White Noise and started che... | https://ghostvillage.com/grandmas-last-call/ |
5,411 | The Front Porch Moaning | My encounter involves the youngest of my three older brothers, and me. When I was 10 years old, my mother moved to America in order to get a job, and be able to provide us four kids with a better life. Because we were pretty much on our own, I lived with my brothers in my house. The oldest brother was 18, following wit... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-front-porch-moaning/ |
5,412 | The Crystal Curse | I had a very strange encounter that I would like to share with you. It has been nearly eight years now, but I still get the chills when I think of it.
I was engaged to a wonderful man, who, unfortunately, had a daughter that was a card-carrying Witch. She and her dad did not get along, mainly because he was a very goo... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-crystal-curse/ |
5,413 | Bringing Evil Home | I used to play with the Ouija Board — I was 11 years old then. I conjured up a person who said his name was Arthur. Arthur actually spent all of his time with me until I was 13 years old. From what I hear of my family telling me, I was "possessed," eyes turning green and all (they are brown). I called up something that... | https://ghostvillage.com/bringing-evil-home/ |
5,414 | Mr. Ruckman's Mansion | Back in 1970 my (then) husband and I went to Runge to explore the abandoned Ruckman Mansion. We took two obedience trained German Shepherds with companion dog titles. When we got there the dogs refused to enter the house. We had to literally drag them in. They whined and whimpered, and kept their tails up under their b... | https://ghostvillage.com/mr-ruckmans-mansion/ |
5,415 | Brown Robed Figure | I am a 56-year-old Vietnam veteran and business consultant. I do not do drugs, and do not understand the following story.
We used to live in a 2 story, 10-year-old house in Fremont, California. We lived there until May of 2003.
In December 2002, just a few days before Christmas, I woke up about 5:30 or 6:00 AM and wa... | https://ghostvillage.com/brown-robed-figure/ |
5,416 | The Little Girl in the Red Dress | My parents left one night to go grocery shopping leaving me and my older brother by ourselves. I was in my room with the door open when I saw a little girl run down the hall. The little girl looked to be around 5-years-old and was wearing a red dress. I thought it was one of the little girls my mother used to baby sit ... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-little-girl-in-the-red-dress/ |
5,417 | Tyler's Torment | All my life I've had this scary interest in ghosts, the paranormal, and other things surrounding this, but I never imagined I'd ever experience it. It was the Summer of 2001. I'd been getting a little more than just interested in ghosts to the point that I was actively seeking out ghosts and haunted places with friends... | https://ghostvillage.com/tylers-torment/ |
5,418 | Ribhu's Last Visit | I was leaving with a friend to go to town. I met someone on the road who told me that Ribhu had died this morning. Ribhu was another boy who lived in our neighborhood. He was about 4 years younger to me and used to call me an elder brother. Their family had moved into the flat above us sometime after we had come to sta... | https://ghostvillage.com/ribhus-last-visit/ |
5,419 | Grandmother's Shadow? | This is the one time that I actually saw a ghost. My grandmother was a medium and my family is always having things happen to them. I have had strange things happen, but I have never seen a ghost. Little did I know that was all about to change.
I live in a two bedroom apartment with my mom and brother. One room is min... | https://ghostvillage.com/grandmothers-shadow/ |
5,420 | Spell Casting Mockery | It was on Halloween when me and a couple of my friends were having a party at my house. I live in an old neighborhood with an old hospital that got burnt down by a fire. On that night my parents were out and me and my friends decided to order pizza and scare the heck out of our sisters. We called them out to my yard an... | https://ghostvillage.com/spell-casting-mockery/ |
5,421 | Dad's Helping Hand | I have always had encounters all my life with what people call ghosts. One encounter I had at work in Plymouth, Michigan.

5,422 | Great Grandfather's House | I never really thought I "believed" before until my husband and myself were moving all of my stuff out. He was my boyfriend at the time and we were going to move in together. I was staying with my mom and dad at the time, and our house had belonged to my late great grandfather.
I had always been told that the house wa... | https://ghostvillage.com/great-grandfathers-house/ |
5,423 | Grandma's Goodbye Hug | My grandmother and I were very close when I was a child. My family would visit during Christmas and for two weeks every summer at her house on a lake in Winthrop, Maine. I was seven years old when my parents sold our house in Franklin, Massachusetts, and were having one built across town.
I was too young to recall al... | https://ghostvillage.com/grandmas-goodbye-hug/ |
5,424 | Jimmy and Jacob's War Games | When my grandson Jacob was about 4 years old we had just returned from a trip to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania — one of our favorite haunts. We had bought him a set of Civil War plastic army men. He enjoyed setting up the Blue and the Grey men on the coffee table and would play for hours on end.
As all little boys do, he ... | https://ghostvillage.com/jimmy-and-jacobs-war-games/ |
5,425 | The Man in the Overcoat | My husband and I lived in a lot of apartments before we finally bought our house. One of the strangest was a unit in what had been an "apartment hotel" back in the 1920's, and then had become a flophouse in the Depression. From there it became an SRO "single room occupancy" building, and finally, just a place for the d... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-man-in-the-overcoat/ |

5,428 | The Apartment in the Former Morgue | I always keep an open mind about ghosts, mostly because of this story. In 1984 I was invited to a co-workers apartment in which he and his wife lived. The apartment happened to be the basement of an old hospital used from the late 1800s into the early 1900s and his apartment was where the morgue used to be located.

5,429 | My Father's Visit | My father was murdered on Halloween night in 1979 in New Caney, Texas. He opened the door, to what he must have thought were trick-or-treaters, and was shot to death. His body was found on the floor by the front door, with a bowl of candy spilled beside him. His murderer was never found.

5,430 | Knocks, Bumps, a Cemetery, and a Book | Last summer I was house-sitting for a friend out in Banks, Oregon. Her house was 5 hard miles off the main road and had a cemetery on one side, and farm land on the other three. There was also a barn in the back with pastures. I brought my mustang who had lived outside most of her life and, I thought, was scared of not... | https://ghostvillage.com/knocks-bumps-a-cemetery-and-a-book/ |
5,431 | The Chase Through Enchanted Forest | I had been hearing so many stories about this place called the Enchanted Forest in Pasadena or around that area. Most of my friends had been there, some saying they saw people with chains around them or headless apparitions floating around and others said they hadn't seen anything. I also heard stories about hot spots ... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-chase-through-enchanted-forest/ |
5,432 | Ghostly Wisps of Blonde Hair | I was 15 when a strange event took place. I lived in a neighborhood named Turf Valley, in a part where the houses were new and right on a golf course. My dad had our house custom-built in 1999. Two years afterwards, however, was my first supernatural encounter in my new house.
My room was across from my parents in the... | https://ghostvillage.com/ghostly-wisps-of-blonde-hair/ |
5,433 | The Cold Wind and Haunted House | I moved with my two small children to the house we are presently living in on march 15, 2004. From the very beginning I had the feeling of being watched. At times the hair on the back of my neck would stand on end and I'd get goose bumps on my skin as though I were chilled. In fact, at times, it would be extremely cold... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-cold-wind-and-haunted-house/ |
5,434 | The Cloaked Figure in Nesbitt Elementary | It was early in the morning about, 7 AM — I had arrived at Nesbitt Elementary School for summer cleaning. I am a janitor, presently 42 years of age, and I never saw any spirits before or since this experience.
The school was build 1912 so it's been around a while. It's a three-story building with a basement, and our o... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-cloaked-figure-in-nesbitt-elementary/ |
5,435 | Tormented in My Bedroom | All my life I've always had encounters with ghosts. One time it got so bad that we had to have someone bless the house, especially the room I slept in. I kept seeing ghosts in my room. There was this woman, about in her 30's and a little girl, about 5 or 6. The little girl was always asking, "Come play with me!" But I ... | https://ghostvillage.com/tormented-in-my-bedroom/ |
5,436 | The Little Girl of Grants Pass | From the first moment I stepped into my home when we were just looking at it, I knew it was haunted. The ghost of a 6 or 7 year old girl lives in my sister's bedroom. She has been seen by myself, my sister, and many of our friends. Recently, I was reading Ghost Stories of Oregon and I was commenting on how there were n... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-little-girl-of-grants-pass/ |
5,437 | Phantom Funeral Pyre | Nagaland is in the northeast of India and it's a cold and mountainous region. Every evening around 9 PM, my parents along with me and my sister used to go for long walks — as the place was quite remote there were no vehicles plying on the roads, in fact, it was more due to the treacherous terrain, as accidents were qui... | https://ghostvillage.com/phantom-funeral-pyre/ |
5,438 | The Visiting Nun | My mother (who passed away in 1994) had an encounter with the supernatural when she was about 10 years old, living under the auspices of Catholic Charities, at Maryville Academy located in Des Plaines, IL.
In the Depression era, there were many children living at that facility who were orphans, half-orphans, abandoned... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-visiting-nun/ |
5,439 | The Nazi Belt | I was watching television recently one night, reclining on my bed yet quite wide-awake, when I suddenly had a flash of an image of a fairly young man standing beside me a few feet down, who was leaning over slightly and touching me in the middle of my waist. This image was only there for quite literally a split-second,... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-nazi-belt/ |
5,440 | Forest Park Cemetery Chase | I've heard the stories, but our encounter was out of this world. I first went there a year ago with my fiancée, his brother, and 3 of their friends. We first got a feeling of un-easiness at the street leading up to the cemetery — it was pitch black all the way until the one light at the opening of the cemetery. Three o... | https://ghostvillage.com/forest-park-cemetery-chase/ |
5,441 | Sarah's Nightly Visits | In 1997 we moved to a new house, I was 10 my brother was about 6. We moved into a 3 bedroom house. My little brother had the room in the front of the house and my mother/father and I had rooms in the back of the house. My brother would always complain of noises coming from his closet. My mother then decided to let my l... | https://ghostvillage.com/sarahs-nightly-visits/ |
5,442 | My Sixth Sense | Ever since I've been born, my parents have always told me that I'm not normal. Not normal in the sense that there always seems to be something following me around, something that isn't quite alive, I guess. When I was little, they said that I was laying in my crib in my room. None of the doors in the apartment had lock... | https://ghostvillage.com/my-sixth-sense/ |
5,443 | Fast Food Victorian Ghost | I worked at a local fast food restaurant, on the AM shift. Around 10 AM every day I took a meal break prior to the lunch rush. Another employee "Michael" was stocking for the lunch shift and we were chatting with each other.
I should let you know that there were only three ways into the back rooms of the restaurant, a... | https://ghostvillage.com/fast-food-victorian-ghost/ |
5,444 | The Insistent Spirit | I was about 12-years-old at the time, my brother only 8, but the memories of that night stayed with us, unbeknownst to each other, until 10 years later. Here’s our story.
It was early August, 1990. It had been raining on and off for a couple of days, leaving everything swampy and muddy. We were living in a two story t... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-insistent-spirit/ |
5,445 | Disembodied Voices Speak | My wife and I have been hearing disembodied voices in our home over the last two months.

Since then, my wife has taken to reading John Edward's books and watching reruns of his show. She beli... | https://ghostvillage.com/disembodied-voices-speak/ |
5,446 | The Old Hag Who Lifted Me | This occurrence, I recently found out is called Old Hag Syndrome. This phenomenon has occurred since my early teens. This most recent encounter however, was also the most severe.
The other night I awoke to the covers tightening around my feet. I immediately sensed the all-too-familiar presence. Within seconds, the pre... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-old-hag-who-lifted-me/ |
5,447 | The "Blithe Spirit" | I was an intern for the Portland Stage Company (PSC) at the time of this encounter. They are a professional theatre working in Portland, Maine.

My mom collects rocks from places she has traveled, so I thought it would be cool to pick up a rock at these ruins to take back to her. BAD IDEA!

5,449 | Footsteps in the Forest | After reading the story about Camp Morgan, I was reminded of a thing in the woods I encountered when I was about 8 or 9 years old. A couple of neighborhood kids had 3- wheelers, and we used to ride them in the woods behind my house (off Hwy 82 for those familiar with the area). One day, the 3-wheeler I was riding ran o... | https://ghostvillage.com/footsteps-in-the-forest/ |
5,450 | The Phantom Maid of Melville | As a touring bar musician in the 80's and 90's, I had many an occasion to stay in different hotel rooms. Thankfully, strange events were extremely rare — but the only one I ever had guaranteed I would never forget it.
On a Sunday afternoon, our band's school bus pulled into Melville, a small town in Saskatchewan, loca... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-phantom-maid-of-melville/ |
5,451 | Grandfather's House Full of Family Spirits | I've only told a few people this story but everyone in my family and a few friends have all experienced this.

5,453 | The Shadow Man's Hand | This morning, after my husband, Felix, left for work I went back to bed. (I had gotten up for some tea, to help my throat and stomach ache.)

5,454 | Murderous Mirror Message | We recently took a wonderful trip to Jefferson, Texas. After hearing about its haunted history from a member of the summer IGHS ghost hunter's convention in San Antonio, we decided to make the trip.
It's a bit out of the way from any major Texas city, but well worth the visit. Picture a town scene straight from a Norm... | https://ghostvillage.com/murderous-mirror-message/ |
5,455 | The Phantom Sentry | My father is a very level-headed man (boringly responsible) so you could have knocked me down with a feather when he told me he'd seen a ghost.
In 1947, my Dad was a British soldier occupying what became the state of Israel. Dad was due on guard duty in a gun tower, complete with search light, in a camp guarding "terr... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-phantom-sentry/ |

5,458 | The Thing in the Woods at Camp Morgan | I haven't really discussed this much with anyone, but after reading the encounters on this site, I was motivated to enter my encounter as a 14-year-old boy at the YMCA summer camp, "Camp Morgan" in the foothills of the White Mountains in New Hampshire.

5,461 | A Friend's Goodbye | The encounter actually happened to my brother while he was still living at home with us. He has always been "sensitive," even as a child.

5,464 | Mystic Pizza Place | I was working at a pizza place and every morning I would roll out the pizza dough for the day. I would get there at 8:00 AM and everyday I would see a shadow out of the corner of my eye going by at about 8:30 AM. I figured it was one of my coworkers, although it seemed strange because if they were going by that fast, t... | https://ghostvillage.com/mystic-pizza-place/ |
5,465 | A Sleeper's Disembodied Hands | I awoke in my basement one hot July morning in 1988 after seeking refuge there because my parents did not have central air at that time and it was the coolest place to sleep. I awoke because I could hear my father upstairs jogging in the house and making coffee. I looked at my watch and it read 7:00 AM.

5,472 | The Boy on the Rock | Hey, it feels funny writing about a ghostly encounter, given that I was a staunch skeptic regarding all such matters. But then, that's life. Anyways, I'm a 23 year old guy who writes for a living. And for once I am writing stuff that I am not making up!
This happened during my summer trip to my relatives' place. My g... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-boy-on-the-rock/ |

5,474 | Gawler's Tree Ghost | I live in Hackham West and was going to my friend's house in Gawler — the other side of Adelaide. We were talking about places that are haunted in Gawler.

5,476 | The Ghost of Ceely Rose | I must be upfront: Before I share my ghost story, I want to point out that I have written a play about the people involved in this haunting, and I am currently writing a book about it.

5,477 | Ghostly Stalker | First of all here's some background on me: I just turned a teenager about two years ago come this June. Well, I didn't think much of it until I was reading on this site trying to figure out some of the odd things that have been happening to me. I wonder if it might actually be a ghost stalking me?

5,478 | Jerry's Visit to Say Goodbye | One night I was watching TV in the dark when I noticed that on the wall facing me there was a square of light. There was nothing in it, just the square.

5,480 | Grandpa's Message | I guess I need to start with my family history: I am an only-child. So is my father. As was his father and his father before him. An unbroken string of "only sons" since before the Civil War.

5,481 | Seeing the Light | I must start out by saying that as far as the paranormal goes, I had never really been sure of anything. In other words maybe yes and maybe no. Up until June 25th, 2002, I had never had any kind of contact with the departed.

5,484 | Haunted Homes I Have Lived In | First off, I'd like to say that I really appreciate your site. So far, I have found a lot of interesting things to read and learn. It's great to read other people's tales of true hauntings, because in a way, it's like sharing war stories with other veterans. These tales, if nothing else, really make a person think…

5,485 | The Rapping and Disembodied Voice | On Saturday, I took my 18 year old son for a haircut at the new boutique around the corner from my home.
