Ghostly Radio
26 December 2025 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters
Dead people can apparently also use radio to communicate with the living. A couple that was moving into a new home after their wedding started to hear music playing quite loudly in the house, but couldn’t figure out where it was coming from. They began to search through the boxes of belongings that were piled up all around looking to see what the source could be. Eventually, they came across an old transistor radio that had once belonged to the wife’s grandfather. It was playing wartime band music very loudly. There was just one problem. The radio was not connected to any power, contained no batteries and had been broken and unusable for years. She only kept it as an ornament and memento of her long dead grandfather. It seemed

Premonition of a Family Members Death
25 December 2025 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters
Ever since I was a kid I’ve had weird things happen to me, my grandfather passed away in 1992 and I was born a year later, my grandma had used an ouijja board to communicate with him and he said he would come back to the earth through me, like a reincarnation or something. When I turned 13 I would get these weird dreams, not regularly but once in a blue moon, I would see an ambulance in my dream, and then someone from my neighborhood would pass away. I felt guilty but people were like “it’s not your fault you’re not killing them you know. Maybe you have a strong sixth sense or something.” Sometimes I’ve seen things pass from the corner of the eye around me whether it

The Haunted Room
24 December 2025 | Your True Encounters
The bedroom I ended up sleeping in was notorious in our family before I was even born. Several members of our family complained about headaches, nightmares and visitations when they slept in that room. I had few experiences in there over my ten-year tenure. I shared the room with my sister and she complained often of things happened but only one incident stands out to me. One night, I was awoken by moaning. It sounded like a moan of anger and despair. It sounded like our house helper was having a nightmare. But what got to me was that her moaning voice was much deeper than her actual voice, and the intensity of her despair was too hard to ignore. I decided to wake her up as her sound creeped

The Basement Terror: A True Tale of the Paranormal
23 December 2025 | July 2017, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
This took place several years ago when I lived at home with my parents and sister and our cousin. We were downstairs in the basement playing cards and talking then out of nowhere everybody had gotten quiet and I did not know why. A second later I heard a little girl voice say “look” or “look back there” in my ear, and then my older sister said she saw a black shadow go past my shoulder. So, I look in the back of the basement, mind you no one is back there and the lights are off in the back, and then I hear a nail of some sort get dragged across one of the workbenches we have in the back. And then we all heard a noise on the

The Ghost Child: A True Paranormal Experience
22 December 2025 | Creepy places, July 2017, Your Stories
This experience happened to me several years ago at our old house. It was during the day and I was home alone standing in the kitchen. I felt like someone was watching me from across the living room. I turned around and saw a young boy standing there staring straight ahead at me. I could clearly see the top half of him however cannot remember if I saw anything below the waist. The moment I screamed he disappeared. I wasn’t scared just startled. I thought the boy was wearing older looking clothes. I googled the fashion from the 1800s to early 1900s for children and it looks very similar with a collared shirt and those particular hats. The boy was probably aged from 5-6 years old. I wish I could

Kanashibari
21 December 2025 | Old hag, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
The members of my family have been annoyed by sleep paralyses. My sister often gets a kanashibari. Once she saw a black shadow of a person in her room. It was at midnight. My mother has had this problem for a long time. Once when she was paralyzed, she saw a pair of hands reaching out to grab her neck. Another time, she saw a fireball flying around her room. After a while, it vanished. When I was a first year student in high school, I was paralyzed for the first time. At that time, I was tired from many changes going on around me, so I thought I was just fatigued and it was a nightmare. But it has happened many times. Once, I saw a little girl wearing

The Old Hag
20 December 2025 | Old hag, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
It’s certainly a weird and frightening experience. I’ve had it several times when I was younger, once in a strong of month-long episodes where it got to the point that I was scared to sleep, knowing what awaited me. Most of the experiences I could hear things, feel things. For example, I heard something almost demonic laughing at me, and felt the pressure of something on my body, and holding me down. I’ll also add that I felt something grab my tongue as I tried to call out for my parents, and something like a claw against my throat. I can remember this all vividly, it was no dream for sure and lasted several minutes. At other times I remember seeing a creature – green, giant eyes, glowing almost in

Creepy Happenings Near My Sick Bed
19 December 2025 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters
I’ve been ill lately so I’ve been spending quite a bit of time in my bed. The way my room is laid out, I can see everything from my bed; the closet door is to the left of my TV, the door to my bedroom on the right, and the only window is to the left of my bed. I have always been interested in the paranormal, and since I haven’t had much to do, recently, I was watching some paranormal shows on TV as I laid on my bed. I had my door closed, but did not lock it, because my cat cries outside the door until I open it if he didn’t come into the room with me, and since he has a very loud voice, I try

The Knocking, Slamming Mist That Haunts My House
18 December 2025 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
Last year we moved to Connecticut into a fairly new house. Nobody mentioned anything about any previous history attached to the house. We were both looking forward to living in the area and thought we had find a good place to raise our family. For the first few weeks nothing happened. We redecorated the house, made some repairs and we were finally settling in. Then doors started to slam. Sometimes upstairs, sometimes downstairs. Sometimes just the basement door. Sometimes multiple doors would slam at the same time. My husband thought it must have been a breeze of some kind but couldn’t locate it. Still this didn’t bother me too much. It was just one of those strange things. Then the tapping sounded. We would get five or six seconds of

Who Was That Girl?
17 December 2025 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
This is a story that my brother experienced. One day, my brother was walking around the house looking for me. “Yurika, where are you?” he called out. He opened the door of the Japanese style room where we keep the butsudan (Buddhist altar to the family ancestors), and he found a girl sitting in front of the altar. He thought the girl was I. “What do you want?” He heard my voice coming from behind him. He quickly turned around to find me standing there. “What?” he said. Weren’t you just sitting over there? ”He turned towards the altar again, but there was no one there. We ran in a hurry to find our mom. “Mom! Mom! My brother explained his experience to my mother. Then she told us something

I’m Home! The Ghost of my Living Mother.
16 December 2025 | Audible Activity, Living Ghosts, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
Having only recently issued a new Kindle short called Ghosts of the Living, I am always on the look out for a certain kind of experience story these days that fits into this category. I just found this one on Reddit. What do you think? This happened YEARS ago. ~10ish years. I was probably 11 or 12, and my sister was a year younger. We were in elementary school, and would take the bus home and let ourselves in. My mom would show up 10 minutes later when she get out of work. And we would know she had gotten home because every day she would open the door and say “I’m hooome!”. She did this every single day. One week though, there were 3 days that she needed to

The Old Hag
15 December 2025 | Your True Encounters
I took a nap mid day once. Slight lucid dream nothing spectacular. Woke up to sounds of people talking outside my bay window and moving my porch furniture. I tried to get up to stop them but realized I was in sleep paralysis. Talked myself through it blinking frequently. The sounds go away but a shadow starts growing in the corner of my living room. Just keep telling myself its sleep paralysis but the shadow turns into this very tall black shadow of a witch with black tattered robes hanging off her and long claws. She walks up to me and gets her face close to mine and vanishes and I can move again. It really bothered me. I don’t scare easily but she was the embodiment of things that

The Scratching Sound That Haunted My Visit
14 December 2025 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
I had travelled to the United States to meet with some members of my family who had lived there for many years. It so happened that as part of my first stop I ended up staying at a relative’s house, which unknown to me at the time, was believed to be haunted, at least by some members of the household. Among other things, they would see things like fresh meat falling out of clothes in an unexplained manner as well as blood stains appearing in various places of the house, in an equally unexplained manner. They lived on the fifth floor, where it would make it very unlikely for any animal to climb up from the outside. Now this is a detail that will be important in the coming paragraphs.

The Haunted Office
13 December 2025 | Your True Encounters
This took place during a normal working day at the office. Our office was busy with meetings, reports and other paperwork. There I was sitting at my cubicle finishing some paperwork and rushed reports, when suddenly I heard a low whisper behind me. I quickly turned to where the whisper came from but all the people in my station at that time were busy finishing their work. I decided that maybe it was one of my co-worker playing a trick on me so I quickly paid no attention to it and got back to my work. Later more whispering came from behind me. That time I didn’t bother to turn around because in my mind, it must be one of my co-workers playing a trick on me. Soon I can

No Entry!
12 December 2025 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters
Having the gifts of an empath is something I deal with everyday and I deal with seeing spirits once in awhile. When I opened my restaurant, I prayed and blessed every wall of that place from top to bottom. I prayed that no evil entity could ever step foot in that shop. When we were open for about 2 months, it was raining outside very hard. I had looked out across the street and saw a man in a grey coat who was standing in the rain. I couldn’t see his face, but when I first glanced over I thought why is this guy standing in the rain? I asked one of my co-workers if they could see that guy and they said what guy? I knew then that this
