My Haunted Life Too

Under Water UFO’s

13 March 2018 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

This is a true account of an incident that occurred early in my military career that I thought someone might enjoy. It was the summer of 2000 and I was just a non-rate stationed on a 110’ Coast Guard Cutter out of Key West. We had enjoyed three days of calm weather and the seas where glassy smooth. Rare nights like this are when smugglers like to make a run and we where sitting as a darkened ship on a known drug rout, and awesome fishing spot, due to a massive drop off underneath us. We had our radars set to max, our ears wide open and our mouths clamped shut. Sound carries like crazy out there and sometimes you can hear the engines of a go-fast screaming before radar

The Haunting Experience of Cedar Hill, Texas

13 March 2018 | Your Stories

I was with a group of friends, and we were together in the backyard of one of their houses. At about eight-thirty in the evening, I saw a shadowy figure of a man wearing a hat appear on the house, moving towards one of the friends that was there. I looked behind me, and there was nobody there. It was just darkness. I asked if anyone else saw that, and there was only one person that didn’t. It makes sense that the rest of us were pretty freaked out, so we all moved to the driveway. Then, the friend that didn’t see it made her way around the house. She reported that she didn’t see or hear anything out of the ordinary. All the other people did not want to

Melissa’s Darkness Follows Me

12 March 2018 | Demons, Old hag, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

My experiences started when I was very young. I remember being a child and having to share a room with this little girl named Melissa. My mother was a nurse and she always took care of sickly foster children. Melissa was one of these children who had a rare birth defect. I knew the truth of what caused her illness because she brought it with her when she was born. It came late one night as I lie in my bed, close to sleep. My new little sister slept in her crib near the middle of the room. She had rustled for a while before falling asleep, but the room was now quiet and the absent of sound was noticeable. I look over towards my bedroom window and see something

The Creepy True Story Behind Netflix Horror ‘Veronica’

09 March 2018 | Your Stories

Got a question for ya: have you seen Veronica on Netflix yet? It’s a scary Spanish horror movie about a girl who does one of those ouija board things and then ghosts get the hump and start bothering her. It’s very spooky indeed. BUT (I’ve written that in capitals because I screamed it, I screamed it so loud your wig set on fire) did you know that it was based on a true story? Yep, a film about ghosts based on hactual hevents. A girl died in Spain in 1992 after doing a ‘makeshift seance’ at school with her mates. This definitely happened, although the exact cause of her death is unknown – all that’s recorded is that she started having seizures and reported seeing ‘evil’ figures in the weeks following the oujia

Horror – Netflix Style -The New Movie Terrifying Viewers on Netflix

09 March 2018 | Your Stories

“Veronica” is a fictional horror movie that recently arrived on Netflix. The film is reportedly so terrifying that people are turning it off before finishing it (though not everyone finds it scary). But is it really based on a true story? The movie’s versions of events take place in 1991 Madrid, where a girl named Veronica holds a séance with her friends at high school. Later, while babysitting her siblings at home, Veronica begins experiencing terrifying supernatural events. “Veronica” touts itself as a movie based on true events and a real police report. Let’s take a closer look at exactly what transpired in Spain more than two decades ago. The strange death of young girl in Vallecas, Madrid According to several paranormal blog sites, including Ghost Theory, police reports from 1992 indicate that a

Dancing Purple Orbs?

08 March 2018 | 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

08 March 2018 | 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?

07 March 2018 | 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,

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

07 March 2018 | 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

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

06 March 2018 | 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

I Wish it Would STOP!

05 March 2018 | Haunted houses, Your True Encounters

This has been going on a long time and I’ve been trying to find help but no one believes me. I need to preface this by saying i’m a writer so just cause it might not look written by a scared teenager that’s why. But also i’m not a very good writer so if it doesn’t seem ‘professional’, that’s why. Anyway my house has been the home of a spirit of some sort for as long as I can remember. Now I know what you’re thinking, and no this isn’t the normal “I noticed a ghost in my house but that’s it” kind of thing, this is a “Whatever is in here hates me” kind of thing. I’m not sure how to start this all so I guess I’ll state

Google Maps Snapper Catches Phantom In Bar In Utah

03 March 2018 | 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….

02 March 2018 | 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

02 March 2018 | 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.

Arizona Night Creatures and Strange Lights Plague A Family

01 March 2018 | 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
