Dancing Purple Orbs?

11 May 2026 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

I have always been interested in the paranormal, specifically life after death and I definitely believe that we simply transform into different energy after leaving this physical realm. There are dimensions within dimensions, parallel universes, etc. I lost two husbands to cancer and most of my life has been very difficult in terms of what I’ve lost, the struggles I have had one right after the other for many years-so close together! My husband Pete, who I was extremely close to, we were so bonded with each other and it was absolutely heart-wrenching to watch him fight cancer, his personality and spirit were bigger than life. Around Christmas only 6 months after he passed, I decided to go to the cemetery even though I know he isn’t really “there”–just his

Cedar Rapids Paranormal Investigator Writes Book About Her Creepy Experiences

10 May 2026 | Creepy places, Your Stories

Katie Hopkins was just 10 years old when she saw her first spirit. The longtime Cedar Rapids area resident was in the home of her neighbor, who had recently died. Hopkins said she and some others were in the basement of the home when she looked and “saw this guy rocking in a rocking chair.” “It was a quick, brief moment,” Hopkins said. “That was the first thing I can really remember being my first paranormal experience.” That encounter would be her first, but far from her last. Now Hopkins, a 30-year-old admissions adviser at Kaplan University, has chronicled her experiences with the paranormal in her recently published book, “‘Seeing’ Spirits: Opening the Empathic Door.” Hopkins said there are lots of books on the paranormal out there and she’s read

The Curse of the Magic Dreamcatcher?

09 May 2026 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

In 2002, I was walking with my parents at a street fair in Carlsbad, CA and encountered a magic dreamcatcher. I saw a bohemian-looking man with a dreamcatcher and scoffed. “Stupid hippie with a bogus dreamcatcher,” I thought to myself. My parents asked me a question and when I heard the sound of my voice reply, I was frightened. It sounded as if I had Down Syndrome. My apologies if this offends you, but I thought to myself, “What if my voice remains like this for the rest of my life?” I was paralyzed with fear. A few people nearby laughed at the sound of my voice and observed what was happening to me. I was mortified. I ran away from the Dreamcatcher and completely out of the Village Fair,

The Breathing Beside Me

08 May 2026 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

I have experienced many paranormal things, but there were three events that scared me so much that I still feel afraid when I remember them. I’m Nepali and I live in Kathmandu. In Kathmandu, there are many people from the Newar culture. We were living in a flat that belonged to a Newar family. In Newar culture, when someone dies, there is a tradition of burying the body beneath the house. I used to sleep alone in my room. My mom would sometimes sleep with me, and sometimes with my sister. One night, I couldn’t sleep at all and was just lying awake. My mom usually worked late into the night before going to bed. Suddenly, I heard the sound of my room door opening, then the sound of someone

Inside The ‘Haunted’ Tudor Mansion of “Phantom Thread”

08 May 2026 | Your Stories

Hidden in its own valley down a winding mud track, Owlpen Manor is not a place for articulated lorries. Yet last March a fleet of white trucks descended on this tranquil corner of the Cotswolds, bringing with them the production crew and equipment for Phantom Thread, Daniel Day-Lewis’s final, and Oscar-nominated, film. “We were chosen not because of any practicalities – there weren’t any – but because Daniel came to the house and loved it,” explains Hugo Mander, who grew up at Owlpen, near Stroud, and now runs the estate on behalf of his parents, Sir Nicholas and Lady Mander. Day-Lewis “had a sort of meeting of minds with my father – they chatted about old houses and poetry. I think he knew immediately that his character would live in a

Memory Care Ghost

07 May 2026 | Haunted locations, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

My husband had dementia for years. We cared for him at home as long as we could before placing him in care. He could still walk, but had to be watched constantly. The second night he was there, he was sitting in his recliner watching tv. I went in the bathroom, and found wet towels on the floor beneath the sink. I bent to pick them up…bent from the waist and not in a graceful stoop. I felt 5 or 6 pats on my rear. Thinking my husband had followed me into the bath room, I straightened and quickly turned. He was still sitting in his chair, and I was alone. I said, “Please don’t touch! It’s not nice.” (As a nurse, I’ve worked in numerous hospitals, and almost all

‘Ghost’ caught on CCTV haunting FAMILY home in horrifying footage

07 May 2026 | Your Stories

Nothing looks particularly out of the ordinary as someone passes through the living room to the kitchen. As the woman moves out of shot, a small unknown phantom seems to appear in the bottom left of the screen. It moves from right to left, before disappearing again. The video then cuts out before we get a chance to get a better look at what it could be. The footage was captured last year, but has only gained popularity now after being posted on Reddit. According to the woman who captured it though, it shows a ghost. She uploaded the video to YouTube channel Ghost Finder on Feb 19 and has since racked up almost 1,000 views. And this is not the first time we have seen an incident of this

Google Maps Snapper Catches Phantom In Bar In Utah

05 May 2026 | Your Stories

A spooked Google Maps photographer has captured what he believes could be an evil spirit lurking in a restaurant. The strange apparent dark apparition was caught on camera in Salt Lake City, Utah, in the US. In the image the dark figure, which also resembles a hooded Star Wars jawa, appears to be lurking by the bar. The snapper uploaded the image to Twitter and expressed their horror. They wrote: “I do believe I captured a ghost in the Old spaghetti factory in Salt Lake City. “I could not recreate this and took several shots back to back. “I am a Google local guide and was taking this for Google maps.” Google Maps and Streetview have become a hotbed of activity for apparent ghost sightings, Dailystar.co.uk reports.

Struggles with Sleep Paralysis….

04 May 2026 | Black Eyed Kids, Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Not sure where to begin on this, but I’m writing tonight because I came across a story while reading about shadow people. I now know what I saw one night back in 2010. But my story is strange. I read where the BEK wanted in but my encounter, he was already in. Now let me back track a little since I was a kid I seen ghosts and heard noises. That being said, I’m not and never have been a believer in ghosts even though my friends and I have seen things, I tend to believe it’s a mind trick or maybe something else. I grew up with and still have what is called sleep paralysis. I have seen many things during those moments – a gorilla clawing at my

Mysterious Flying Lights Enthrall Milwaukee Residents

03 May 2026 | Your Stories

FOX 6 newscasters in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, struggled to identify a group of mysterious white lights floating in their broadcast’s sky view Tuesday morning. Soon after, the glowing, ghostly images enthralled thousands of people on Reddit — perhaps the least surprising turn of events in modern history. So, what were those lights? Aliens? Ghosts? Cute little sky tadpoles? None of the above, according to local reporters who drove to check it out. In fact, they were seagulls, whose outlines appeared blurred due to the camera’s shutter speed. (Check out this daylight video from the ground — they’re much clearer.) Or maybe that’s what the ghosts want you to think. Check out the original article right here. Have you tried these great #paranormal books from G. Michael Vasey? If you’re looking for true tales of the paranormal to keep

Arizona Night Creatures and Strange Lights Plague A Family

02 May 2026 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

When I was in 3rd grade in 1994, I lived in a small border town called Douglas in Arizona, USA. My dad was in the National Guard and my mom was a stylist. We lived in a new housing development called Quail Run. If you see it now there are a lot of houses there, but when I was a kid, we were one of maybe six that were newly built. Quail Run is as far southeast of Douglas as you can get before hitting the Mexican border. I lived in one of the houses on the outer edge of the development. The house faced east and to the southeast of our front door was miles of desert before hitting Mexico. Plain. Untouched desert. I remember there was a square

The 3am Albino in my Yard

01 May 2026 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Went out to smoke a cigarette at 3am in the morning last night and sensed someone staring at me. So as I puffed the smoke, I turned the porch light off and looked at where it was coming from. A straight up 6 foot plus muscular albino in white was just stood there in my front lawn signaling the Shhh with his finger. I put my cigarette out, walked in, bolted the door and got my weapon. Didn’t sleep at all last night. Woke up noon and reported it to the neighbors. I went to see were he was standing, and there are two boot prints in the grass, and pretty deep. What the hell did I see? Submitted by Liam Originally posted 2018-02-28 14:16:23.

Pagan Encounter

29 April 2026 | Near death experience, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

This might not be what you would usually be interested in, but it was my introduction to the supernatural, February 6th, 2011, Province of Québec: After a six-hour long near-death experience (in which I entered a state of indescribable communion with the Great God Pan in his highest cosmic form, looking as if he was made of all of the stars and galaxies in the Universe), my mother told me that the first time she came to visit me at the hospital, right after surgery when I was practically comatose, she clearly heard her sister’s voice in the room with us. My aunt was telling her “I’m so sorry, I was so selfish, I’m so sorry…” over and over again. That freaked my mother the f**k out, so much so

The Ghost of Allan

When I was a child my father, and I lived in a old clapboard house with my aunt, her husband and three children. One day it was raining very hard.I went out of the porch just watching the rain. As I was watching the rain I became aware of a boy in the old abandoned house next door. This boy was watching me, and seemed to know who I was because he started singing the old song ” I dream of Jeanie with the light brown hair” but he substatuted my name for Jeanies. His name was Allan. It turns out that Allan lived not very far from my aunts house with his many brothers. We became fast friends. My father after a time purchased a gas station, this gas
