5,600 | T.J. the Traveling Ghost | When my wife and I visited Cimarron, New Mexico in the summer of 1999, it was to research my recently published book Riders in the Sky: The Ghosts and Legends of Philmont Scout Ranch. We planned on interviewing staff members at the ranch and local residents in Cimarron and visiting haunted sites, which we did. What we ... | https://ghostvillage.com/tj-the-traveling-ghost/ |
5,601 | Hallway Orbs | In September of 2000 my boyfriend (now husband), Brian, and I moved into a six-flat building built about 1920 on the North side of Chicago. He worked out of town so he was gone all week. I got the first inclination of something strange in the apartment the night we moved in. Brian left to return the moving truck and my... | https://ghostvillage.com/hallway-orbs/ |
5,602 | Woman in the Window | It started about a month after a really good friend of mine died. I was awakened in the middle of the night because I kept hearing someone whispering in my room. I just thought I left the radio on, but I checked it and it wasn't on. Eventually I feel back to sleep… how, I don't know… and I didn't have any other encount... | https://ghostvillage.com/woman-in-the-window/ |
5,603 | Father Ghost | My friends and I went through a stage where we would hang out a lot at one girl's house. She, her mom, and older brother had lived there since before she was even born — her father had bought the house, and had died a couple of month before my friend, Tracey, was born.
She was always telling us stories about the house... | https://ghostvillage.com/father-ghost/ |
5,604 | "There's Nothing Good to Say" | The recording was taken using a GE micro cassette recorder (model 5375) (with an external microphone) using a Sony 90 minute cassette. The excerpt was taken from a one-minute silence after asking the question "Are there any spirits present who have anything to say?" The response was what was what you heard. The file wa... | https://ghostvillage.com/theres-nothing-good-to-say/ |
5,605 | Summer Camp Cabin Monster | What happened to me and my fellow campers was pretty frightening. It happened late at night when all of the kids were in their cabins close to sleep — it could have been in the middle of the night — but all I remember was waking up to someone entering the cabin very quietly.
Whatever it was that came in walked really ... | https://ghostvillage.com/summer-camp-cabin-monster/ |
5,606 | A Dark Shadow on a Tennessee Creek | Well it started out as a joke, my boyfriend and I were going to hide at this house that was supposedly haunted — I thought the stories were just told to scare little kids. My friend dropped us off and almost immediately I started feeling bad, like something was wrong.
We started to walk away from the house toward the ... | https://ghostvillage.com/a-dark-shadow-on-a-tennessee-creek/ |
5,607 | Gettysburg's Haunted Farnsworth Inn | Last year, my mother and I visited some friends in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania.

Its name was the Farnsworth Inn. We stayed i... | https://ghostvillage.com/gettysburgs-haunted-farnsworth-inn/ |
5,608 | The Lost City | I am not a crazy and I don't see stuff like this all the time, nor do I hear voices. I come from a small county full of small towns and most of the other surrounding county's are the same. Around here there is not much to do besides go out in the boondocks (middle of nowhere/woods) and shoot guns, drink beer, fish, or ... | https://ghostvillage.com/the-lost-city/ |
5,609 | "For My Kids" | This electronic voice phenomena (EVP) was recorded at Red Lock in northeastern Ohio. Though it's debatable as to what the spirit is saying, it sounds to me like a man with an odd accent saying "For my kids."
Many workers died of malaria while building the canal at Red Lock. The complete history of the area is a myster... | https://ghostvillage.com/for-my-kids/ |
5,610 | Grandma's Hand | Let me tell you that my grandma was my idol as a child. A lot of bad things happened to me and I became a bitter and hateful little girl. My grandma was the only one of my family to love me, and show it, in spite of that. My grandma committed suicide when I was eight years old. I remember the day being September 24, 19... | https://ghostvillage.com/grandmas-hand/ |
5,611 | Children's Dancing Light | When I was ten years old I shared a bedroom with my nine year old brother. We were not quite asleep one night when I saw a roundish, red colored light moving slowly from left to right in front of our beds. The light was about the size of a lit match and I can assure you no one else was in the room with us. Finally, the... | https://ghostvillage.com/childrens-dancing-light/ |
5,612 | A Spirit Named "Fred" | My brother moved into his house which was built on an old school field. During the second world war, this field was occupied by air raid shelters. The houses in this neighborhood were built in the late 1990's.

5,613 | Footsteps in the Bedroom | We moved into our house about three years ago, the house was built sometime around the 1940s and used to be a bar called The Miners' Inn until about ten years ago.

The house has two levels, the to... | https://ghostvillage.com/footsteps-in-the-bedroom/ |
5,614 | Beating the Angel of Death | This is only one example of an encounter I had in a house I lived in.

I left the door to the upstairs open as w... | https://ghostvillage.com/beating-the-angel-of-death/ |
5,615 | Grandmother's Visiting Spirit | My name is Kristina, I am 14 years old, and I would like to share my encounters with you.

5,616 | Haunted Land | We have had numerous encounters since we built our house on presently owned farmland. Our original house burned, and we rebuilt on the same land; however, the occurrences are more frequent in the most recent house.
We (my entire family of five) regularly hear footsteps on the hardwood stairs, knocking on the glass pat... | https://ghostvillage.com/haunted-land/ |
5,617 | Haunted Queenslander | I have always been interested in listening to other people's ghostly encounters but I had never actually experienced anything unusual myself until this, which has since made me a little less skeptical.
At the time of my encounter I had recently landed a new job which paid a lot more than what I was used to so I moved ... | https://ghostvillage.com/haunted-queenslander/ |
5,618 | Native American Shadow Spirit | I've had many experiences in my life which I can't explain. Some were surprising and some were as a result of an act like visiting "The Vampire's Grave" in West Greenwich, Rhode Island. This event just happens to be one of the most recent. Let me explain:
I lived at an apartment complex called Osprey Links off of Town... | https://ghostvillage.com/native-american-shadow-spirit/ |
5,619 | Angry School Spirit | I live right across the street from a haunted school. It was built in 1898, but I think it's older than that — the building is very ugly. Cobwebs in the basement, cracked ceilings on the third floor, warped doors in the hallways, and when you drink form the water fountain the cold water gets steaming hot.
The school i... | https://ghostvillage.com/angry-school-spirit/ |
5,620 | Faceless Nighttime Visitor | I have heard a lot of ghost/spirit encounters by my friends but I was not completely convinced. But then I had my encounter.
It happened to me in my room as I was sleeping. Around 2-3 AM I suddenly felt my arms go numb and I felt like something was pulling from on top of me (I was lying on my back). I opened my eyes a... | https://ghostvillage.com/faceless-nighttime-visitor/ |
5,621 | Cold Room Tapping | My family and I moved to Hazlehurst, Georgia when my mother got a teaching job down there. We spent weeks trying to find a house, and we finally found one that seemed perfect — that was before we moved in and got settled.

5,622 | Haunted Mirror | When I was about 10 or 11 I somehow inherited a large, antique oval mirror. It's meant to sit on a dresser or a vanity table, but one never came with it. My mother told me that it was my grandmother's (her mother) and had belonged to my great grandmother prior to that. For several years it sat on the floor leaning agai... | https://ghostvillage.com/haunted-mirror/ |
5,623 | Sixth Sense | I am a very in touch with my Irish heritage and I recently found out just how in touch I really was.

5,624 | Tormented Dreams | I fooled around with some voodoo not thinking that it was real and two years later something happened.

5,625 | Haunted Apartment | My encounter happened a bit after my first daughter was born in 1999. My husband and I were living in an apartment in Uniontown, Ohio.

5,626 | Partying Spirit | On December 30, 1999, I found my old address book from ten years ago — it contained all of the phone numbers of my friends at university, some of whom I had fondly remembered but lost touch with over the years.
