11 August 2020 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters
I am a retired Police officer with over 30 years of law enforcement service. I am currently an Orthodox Anglican Priest. This encounter happened when I was 14 years old and my brother was 12. We were on our way to our grandparents ranch in Idaho and had stopped off in Mammoth Lakes, CA to take a rest and get something to eat. After eating my brother and I went on a hike around the lake. The lake is surrounded by pine trees and hiking trails. We were walking east on one of trails when we saw a commotion in some bushes south of the trail. We stopped walking and the observed a tiny man come out of the bushes and he turned and looked at my brother and I.

The Apparition on the Staircase
10 August 2020 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
This will be somewhat of a short story, but it IS a true story. When I was about 7 or 8 years old (almost 45 years ago), we had a family sleepover because some cousins and their parents had come to visit from Delaware. We all decided to stay at my Aunt Beaula’s house because it was big enough to comfortably sleep the amount of people that were all there due to the visitation. The kids all played games downstairs in the living room, and most of the adults were seated in the kitchen talking among themselves until it was time for us all to call it a night. This house was an older three-story house and until this time, I had never stayed the night here. I had always

Cold Hands
06 August 2020 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
This had happened when i was about 6 or 7. I cant recall correctly though. Back then, I lived in Pakistan. Since my family was Christian, we moved here in the Philippines. I’m 16 now, but I still remember a lot that happened back then. A lot of it comes from the house we lived in. It was given to us by the church we went to since our family toke part in almost everything. The house was close to a mansion. It was a giant single story house and it had a massive garden surrounding it. A couple of large trees, beautiful flowers.We’d even plant vegetables and fruits in the backyard and I guess it was a picture perfect life to live. Now heres the thing that really freaked

Slaughterhouse Canyon
05 August 2020 | Haunted locations, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
We went on a tour of the western states for our honeymoon, on an impromptu Jeep camping trip. We mostly explored National Parks and historic sites. While we were in the state of Arizona visiting the Grand Canyon for the first time, my wife and I decided to research other attractions in Arizona. I found a list of haunted places in the state, and Slaughterhouse Canyon popped up near the top. The legend goes that a family homesteaded in the canyon many years ago. The father was a prospector and hunter who would leave and be gone for weeks at a time, looking for gold and wild game. One time, however, he failed to return. The children slowly began to starve, and their screams for food began to drive the

It Followed Me Home From the Cemetery
04 August 2020 | Haunted locations, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
I am from the small town of Lumberton, North Carolina. We have local legend of a ghost that haunts one of the cemeteries here in town. Her name is Clare Townsend. The legend goes that Ms. Townsend was set to wed in 1912; however, she passed on the night before her wedding day. She has been seen walking thru the cemetery at night, wearing her wedding gown. My encounter happened back in 2010. Some friends and I went to the cemetery looking for the ghost. It was an easy trip. Turned right, then left, and the cemetery was there from my apartment. We got out, flashlights in hand and walked thru the cemetery. It took us a while to find her grave, but there it was. A headstone with a

The Baterna Boarding House
03 August 2020 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
When I finished grade-school in 1998, my parents decided that I should go to a high school in the nearest city. The city is Iloilo city, in the Philippines. It was 4 hours by car from our little town of Estancia. My mom found an all-girls boarding house which is a mile away from Iloilo National high school. This house was a newly restored and remodeled old Spanish house. (There are a lot of preserved Spanish houses in the Philippines because Spain colonized the Philippines for over 300 years, so it’s common for these houses to be used for business.) It was a 2 story house with a staircase that is outside the first floor, and a terrace on the second floor. The downstairs was used for the owners real

Ghosted by My Lover
31 July 2020 | Old hag, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
(What’s a girl to do when her elusive lover won’t return her calls?) My story’s not new. I’m not the first woman to fall in love only to be deserted. Shocking he would do something so shady, because up to that point he had been so transparent. It started out passionately. Out of thin air he arrived, and our first time together was amazing! For 2-3 hours he ravished me, over, and over, and over…. Words not coming easily to him, he used songs to assure me of his love and how perfect he thought I was. I was smitten, always giving in when I felt his presence. For months we had clandestine meetings, but he had a tendency to disappear. I worried he was married, since he always came

My Two Paranormal Experiences
29 July 2020 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
First of all, I don’t expect anyone to believe in the paranormal and the only reason I do is that it happened to me twice in my life. Otherwise I don’t think I would. The first occurrence happened when I was young, about 5 yrs old. I was watching TV in the living room and my cousin was in view down the hallway. He kept bugging me, “Paul come see.” Finally after about the third time I was tired of him aggravating me and proceeded down the hallway and met him. We were looking into my parents room from the hallway and as I looked in my peripheral vision at the side of my parents queen size bed, I saw a red transparent figure with shadowy eyes and a mourning

28 July 2020 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
My story starts off with my sister telling me about a house out in the country that was abandoned and that had trees around it. When I say trees around it, was like a forest in the middle of fields, like an island. I was just curious about it like I want to see it I told her to take me to it. I drove to it and it was about 15 minutes away. It was sooooo creepy that I was like wtf. I drove by it and then did a u-turn back to our house. A couple of days passed by. I was hanging out with friends at night talking about ghost stories and that’s when I told them about the house – how it looks and so creepy.

Episode 8 – Parasitic Entities….
28 July 2020 | G. Michael Vasey's Nightmare Corner, Old hag, Shadow people, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
A couple of years ago on a night train across Germany, I had an old hag experience. Since I could see the entity after escaping sleep paralysis, I was puzzled. How could that be? The experience terrified me and led to an investigation of the phenomenon that resulted in my book – “Basic Instinct: Erotic Paranormal Contact:: The Old Hag and the Mysterious World of Sleep Paralysis” . In this episode of the magical world of G. Michael Vasey, I use material from the book to explain why I think that parasitic entities exist and feed on our fears. Be careful what you yearn for….. it may just manifest! As I state in the show, I am not the only person expounding such an idea. Anthony Peake suggests

Don’t Tell Dad
27 July 2020 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters
I walked in my son’s room , and he was listening to ghost stories on his phone. I remember when I was his age, and I listened to Jump Stories . Jump Stories was a popular scary story podcast when I was younger. They say love is intense , but I disagree. Fear is stronger , and this is probably why I enjoyed being afraid, when I was younger. I noticed his eyes were closed , but his ears were open. He was laying down on the floor. Perhaps the rug turned into a magic carpet while he was listening to the story and took him to another world. . I tapped him on the shoulder and he jumped up, returning from his mini field trip. He looked up at

My First Encounter With a Shadowman
23 July 2020 | Shadow people, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
So, I was just 10 years old back then. I’m 39 now and I can still spot the shadow people almost every time. The first time I saw them was when I was sleeping late at night. At least I was trying to. I was awake but still very sleepy and my desk was just right next to my bed. It was a big old fashioned house in middle of a Village also known as Brna – there was two of them – a supposed girl one with long hair and her body was all black and she was very close to me – inches away. She was under my desk. She kind of was way smaller than the one that was very slowly walking trough the hallway between my

Hearing the Voice of an Angel or God
21 July 2020 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters
Here is my story. It was September 23, 1996 I was 25. I had called an ambulance because my dad had become very lethargic. His speech was slurred and He couldn’t stand. When the 2 LARGE EMT’s had gotten him into the ambulance they told me to get in the front seat. I sat there praying (silently, I think). After a couple of minutes one of the EMT stuck his head up front and instructed me how to call out an extra driver. My dad had gone into cardiac arrest. Within 30 seconds the driver was there and we were on the road. I was still praying “Lord, don’t take my daddy!! Please Lord don’t take my daddy.” Over and over. After just a couple of minutes. I heard a

Music from the Kitchen
20 July 2020 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
An experience that comes to my mind often is when I was in the 8th grade and my family was throwing a surprise 60th birthday party for my Grandfather. We got his sister to fly in from California back to us in Philadelphia, I had always heard of her but never met her till this time. Well, I went to bed at my normal bedtime the night before the party and my Aunt was staying at my house to hide her from my Grandfather. I left my Aunt and my Mother in the kitchen and said goodnight. At some point in the middle of the night I woke and looked down the hallway of our rowhome and saw a light on downstairs and I figured my aunt and Mother were

Our Haunted House in Chicago
17 July 2020 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
Myself, my 2 sisters (1-5 yrs. older & the other 2 yrs.younger) & our mother grew up in a house with a spirit that never harmed us, only scared us. Our mother told us “it just wants you to know it is there, it hasnt harmed any of you“. My sisters both have their own unique experiences of which I can only advise second hand info. I can provide details of my own experiences. I had 4 experiences. The first experience I was around 7 yrs old & was sitting on my older sisters bed (which is the primarily location of the haunting) I felt hands grab me by my ankles & pull me. I jumped off the bed to look underneath & saw nothing. She had 2 cats, but
