Phil And the Dark Man

07 August 2025 | Audible Activity, Haunted houses, Shadow people, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

I have had trouble even putting this horrible event into words…until now. I’ve lived in the same house for a long time. From time-to-time, we hear someone walking upstairs even when I know that no one is awake or even home. My dog barks at nothing and I promise you that it isn’t something the dog heard outside. No. It’s whoever or whatever is in my house. Actually, there is more than one entity in my home. I have created a nickname for the one that I think is a younger spirit, maybe a teen. His name is Phil. Or, at least that’s what I call him. He will mess with my Mom as she hears bangs and walking. I always tell her to ignore it, and it will stop.

The Shadowy Apparition That Took Me By Surprise

05 August 2025 | Haunted houses, Shadow people, Your Stories

This incident took place a few years ago, I had no interest at all in the paranormal until this occurrence. I was home alone, as my parents were out for the evening, and I was in the living room of our house on my laptop. My laptop is set up so that my back is to the wall. From there, I have a clear view of our kitchen. I was browsing different websites. One of my dogs, Caspar, was curled up on the chair next to me. I heard some loud noises coming from upstairs, but ignored it, assuming that it was our other dog playing around up there. At one point, I thought I heard someone step down a few stairs and pause, but I continued to ignore it.

Strange Noises and Black Shadowy Apparitions Plague Our House!

14 July 2025 | Audible Activity, Haunted houses, Shadow people, Your Stories

Since the beginning of last year, my wife and I have been hearing strange noises in our house. They normally start late at night. Some of the noises are just creaks and bangs, but recently we have been hearing children playing downstairs while we are upstairs. These children are very, very audible and are usually screaming, crying and calling for their parents. We have been suffering through it, but about five months ago our son said that he saw a woman come into his room, sit on his bed, and sing to him. He said that she had black hair, black eyes, and a pale face. My wife and I are unsure of what to do. A few weeks ago we were spending time together in the living room when

Shadow Boy Haunts My Sleep!

21 May 2025 | Shadow people

This happened around 7 years ago. I’m 14 now and am still freaked out by this event. So, I was calmly sleeping in my bed when I woke up – nothing out of the ordinary. I realized the covers were moved over as my feet were hanging out of bed. As I looked around the room, I saw a boy stood right at the foot of my bed just looking at me. I ran out of the room screaming waking my Mum, Dad and even a neighbor heard me. We all went back into the room to look around but nothing was there. Ever since that night nothing further has happened, however the occasional object has moved. About three weeks ago, I woke at around 2:30am. I sleep on my

The Dark Man in the Corner

13 January 2025 | Haunted houses, Shadow people, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

When I was young, I always wondered what it was like to experience the paranormal or anything of some sorts. By the time I reached adolescence, I had started to experience some paranormal activity.. due to my grandfather dying a couple of months before I turned 13. “Come down stairs lily” – said my mom I went down and asked her whats wrong…little did I known it would be a start of a new chapter in my life… As I arrived into the living room, my mom was breathing uncontrollably. “I saw him, He’s here!” I looked at my mom wondering why she was saying “him” and who was she referring to. I sat down and asked her ” what do you mean by him?” “Your grandfather he’s here, he

A Confrontation at the Foundry

20 July 2024 | Hat Man, Shadow people, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Despite the frequent unexplained occurrences at my wife’s clinic in The Foundry, I’d never felt genuinely afraid. As a believer in the paranormal, I was more intrigued than scared by the events. However, there came a point when I decided it was time to address the situation head-on. It started on a sweltering summer evening. The shopping centre was closed, and I went to the store alone to restock supplies. The darkness didn’t bother me; in fact, part of me hoped to encounter something out of the ordinary. I wasn’t disappointed. As I moved about the store, I became aware of a large, black shadow in the shape of a man. He wore a wide-brimmed hat and paced up and down the hallway of our clinic. I greeted him with

Small Shadow Man

19 September 2022 | Shadow people, Your True Encounters

I lived in a lovely flat, on the coast of UK. I never had any problems with paranormal things there. But one night I woke up (which isn’t odd, I wake up most nights, instantly being very awake) so I needed to use the bathroom, which was across the square landing (that was totally empty) I did what I needed to, opened the bathroom door and was reaching up to turn the bathroom light off, as I would leave to go back to my bedroom. But this time as my arm was about to reach up, while opening the bathroom door, I saw this small shadow person, just standing there on the empty landing. Nothing was casting this shadow, as the only light was coming from the bathroom (directly at

The Hat Man

06 September 2022 | Hat Man, Shadow people, Your True Encounters

I used to live in a big Victorian era home, that was chopped into 4 apartments. There was a tenant living in the apartment right next to mine. She was a single mother with 3 kids. She was also addicted to drugs. After they moved in, I started waking up to the hat man shadow. He would be staring at me and usually went back to her place. I didn’t feel it was ‘evil’ but it had a very strong presence. First I thought I was having dreams, but my dog ~ she slept on the bed next to me – was very aware of him. She didn’t act scared or aggressive, but she was very alert watching him, too. This woman was very paranoid, and sometimes would take off

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

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

30 January 2020 | Shadow people, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Okay, so I know that there is a shadow man but has anyone experienced shadow people? This probably sounds super weird and I think it all started around my 13th birthday. I just got out of a really bad friend group and noticed these strange “beings”. I call them “the Beings” because I can’t tell if they’re man or monster. Well, it was maybe a week after my 13 and I’d see a shadow that’s not mine when I’m in a room by myself. This was two years ago. Skip ahead two years and everything’s sooo much worse! I constantly feel as if I’m watched and I’m on edge. So much so that any loud, sudden noise and I’m a complete wreck. I don’t know if women are more prone

My encounter with the Hatman

17 January 2020 | Audible Activity, Haunted houses, Shadow people, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

I grew up in an old country house, built near the start of the 1900s in SouthWestern Ontario. The house was out of the city limits, down a dirt road with no street lights and the closest neighbors were no less than 200 yards away from our property line. We had a large yard that was well populated with large old-growth pine trees, cedars, maple, oaks and willows. The inside of our house was rather basic, with a kitchen, bathroom, living room and our patents bedroom on the main floor, while my siblings and I had our rooms on the upstairs floor. The staircase was a typical old-school wooden staircase, complete with creaks and groans as you made your way up each step. The staircase had three initial stairs before

Dragged from my Bed…

10 January 2020 | Haunted houses, Shadow people, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

When I was 5, we lived in a mobile home. The hall wasn’t long but, of course, for a child it was. My mom wouldn’t let us watch scary movies so what happened wasn’t triggered by that. So, I went to sleep but this night but there was a different feeling in my room. It felt scared for some reason. I would see dark shadows on my walls but I would just put the covers over my head. Suddenly, my covers were pulled off of my bed and I was afraid to open my eyes as I was being dragged out of my bed down the hall. I tried to scream and I couldn’t. When I opened my eyes there was a dark figure pulling at me. My Dad must
