Awakened by Ghostly Rapping on the Window
13 September 2016 | Haunted houses
The first house we lived in was alive with spirits. My parents didn’t like to mention it—but it was. I was probably 4 at the time when I first noticed it. We were having a family reunion at our house and had the whole family over. Lots of food, lots of play and lots of fun to be had with my cousins. I remember being tired and wanting to go to sleep just when the sun went down, so I went to my room and fell asleep. The party was still going on downstairs. I woke up to someone knocking at my window, but it wasn’t a polite knock. It was like pounding with urgency. I didn’t think anything of it except that it was probably one of my cousins

A Vampire Terrorized A Czech Village
12 September 2016 | Haunted locations, Vampires
In doing research for an upcoming book on the Czech Republic, I came across a vampire story…. In Ždár nad Sázavou, a Czech vampire once roamed. Alois Ulrich was an unkindly man and the administrator of the local castle estate. He treated his fellow humans with the same contempt that he had for animals. In his early 60’s, he contracted a strange disease and died. No one was particularly sad to see him pass away. He was buried in the lower churchyard. But Alois continued to terrorize his neighbors even in death as he was seen by many villagers both in the cemetery and standing on a local bridge. There was even a murder attributed to the dead Alois. The increasingly concerned and scared inhabitants called on a local landowner to

Battle With Evil on The Doorstep
09 September 2016 | Black Eyed Kids, Your Stories
The BEK stories continue to come in thick and fast. Here is another recently submitted. Each new submission makes it seem like there is a real battle with evil on the doorstep going on…. My encounter started like any other. Some kids came to my door. I was alone in the house, playing video games when this long knock came to the door. I could see through the curtain on the door that it was just some kids, and living in a neighborhood with several families with kids this was nothing out of the ordinary. Yet before I even opened the door I began to feel extremely wary. I opened it to find two boys, around twelve or thirteen, standing on my porch. The Taller boy had knocked, the smaller

Halloween Nightmare
07 September 2016 | Haunted locations, Your Stories
In October of 1971, some friends of mine told me about the old Confederate cemetery across the river from Fort Smith, Arkansas, in the small town of Lavaca. Trying to frighten me, because I am from Michigan, they challenged me to go to the cemetery on Halloween night. With me driving and my friends giving me the directions, off we went to Lavaca to see the “ghosts” of the Civil War. The cemetery was right next to this small white church that we had to drive down a narrow lane between orchards to get to. There was a clock, on a timer in the steeple that gonged for every hour. That Halloween night, when the clock struck twelve, the clock gonged thirteen times not twelve. When I looked over to

Photo of Doppelganger Causes Health Issues?
06 September 2016 | Doppelgangers, Your Stories
I posted on Reddit a while ago asking if anyone had had experiences with doppelgangers. To my surprise, I got several responses most of which I have already posted here. This is the last story of a doppelganger encounter from that source but it’s a creepy one…. Imagine, sitting in a restaurant and this happens! Years ago, I was out eating dinner at a local Carabbas restaurant with my mom. The large party table across from ours had a small girl around the age of 4 or 5 who two or three times walked over and called me “sissy” and wanted to sit in my lap. I didn’t think anything of it until her grandmother walked over. She apologized politely but hesitantly, and explained that I just so happened to

Time Warp Terror?
05 September 2016 | Time warp, Your Stories
One night my friend and I were walking in Des Moines. We were walking. We were half-way to his house when suddenly I was standing outside of a huge skyscraper building in, what I now believe to be Detroit. I then entered the building and there was a lady with kind of platinum blonde hair. Her clothes didn’t look odd or anything. She told me that I was on time for my appointment, so I followed her to an elevator. We stepped inside and she pushed the button for the 53rd floor. When we got out of the elevator, I followed her to some office. The walls and the floor were done in a decorative business-like way. We got to the door and she told me to go in and

Kutna Hora – The Remains of 50,000 People!
02 September 2016 | Haunted locations
In a town named Kutna Hora, here in the Czech Republic, there is a very famous ossuary that is said to contain the bones of between 40,000 and 70,000 people. The site, which is beneath the cemetery of the Church of All Saints just outside of Kutna Hora, is a very creepy visit. Four huge bell-shaped mounds of bones in each corner of the Chapel are accentuated by delightful human skeletal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. There is even a coat of arms – all made from human skeletal remains, on the wall. The story behind how this came to be is fascinating. Back in 1278, a monk returned from the Holy Land with soil from Golgotha. This was spread in the cemetery making it a much wanted final destination

A Last Visit
30 August 2016 | Your Stories
This happened sometime in the 90s. I was engineering manager at the time. In my position, I dealt with quite a lot of sales reps. One in particular was a gentleman whose name was Jack Heaps. This particular morning as I drove to work, I can remember thinking that it was a horrible very rainy and windy day. Later that day, I was informed that Jack had been killed in a collision with an articulated lorry that had Jackknifed across the road. Some weeks later, another manager from another company had decided to go into work earlier, just to check on the heating as it was winter. When he arrived at work, he found Jack there sat in his car. He asked Jack why he was there so early, but

Ghostly Home Invaders Spook Family
29 August 2016 | Haunted houses, Your Stories
Shortly after my husband and I moved into the house that we lived in for 18 years with our 2 small sons and my thirteen year old daughter, we went grocery shopping and took our boys with us. When we got home, my daughter was in quite a panic, because she had thought the house was being burglarized. While we were gone she heard what sounded like teenage boys running up the stairs talking to each other (her room was on the third floor). We could find no indication that anyone had broken in and the doors and windows were still locked. Four years later, my husband and the boys were camping for the weekend, and my daughter was staying at a friend’s house. I was awoken at 3:00 AM

A Hooded Beast Stalks a 5-Year Old
26 August 2016 | Your Stories
In the summer of 1978 I was five or six years old and living with my grandparents. I often played in an open field right next to my grandparents’ house. One day, while playing there alone I got bored and decided to go inside the house. For some reason that I can’t remember, when I got to the front steps of the house, I looked back to the spot where I had been playing before. To my surprise, there was this thing standing there. It was wearing a long, black robe with a hood over its head, and the sleeves covered its hands. If the figure had hands it wasn’t entirely clear. The creature, whatever it was, was completely solid. It was looking out toward the river. I was only

The Demon on the Doorstep: Another Encounter with a Black-Eyed Kid
25 August 2016 | Black Eyed Kids, Your Stories
This happened to me a couple of years ago. I had just moved out of my parents’ house and was living in a house in New Jersey. I was home one night watching TV and had the porch door open. It was getting later and I kept thinking about closing it. I got up to close up the house for the night and my dog started growling, which turned into barking. He was going crazy at the porch door, but wasn’t going outside to investigate. I looked over and a boy was standing there. He was about twelve and didn’t say anything. He just stood staring at me. I asked him who he was and he didn’t say anything. I asked again and he just looked at me and asked

The Hooded Figure That Haunted My Childhood!
24 August 2016 | Haunted houses, Your Stories
Years ago, as a child, I too had an experience with a hooded figure, but since I had a lot of nightmares, I was told that I hadn’t really seen anything. I slept in the same room as my parents. One night, I woke up to a dark hooded figure standing beside my bed looking down at me. Of course, I started to scream. This figure turned and walked away; only to disappear before getting out of the room. After my parent’s jumped out of bed, they calmed my fears by telling me it was just another one of my dreams. I fell back to sleep only to wake up to this thing standing beside me again, bent over looking down at me. Again I screamed, and again my parents
