My Strange Music Box

12 December 2019 | Audible Activity, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

I have an antique music box ( I collect them). The music box sits in my china hutch. My Grandma and I were extremely close, and I lost her in June of 1978. The music box is white satin and has an antique doll in it, and mirror and plays Somewhere my Love – which is a song that my Grandma used to sing to me. Only in the last 5-years has this music box started playing a few strands of this song each year on her birthday, which is June 13th, and I will smell a whiff of her favorite perfume which was Tabu. It’s very comforting, but strange for anyone I try to tell the story to. Submitted by Tammy Johnson to Weird Darkness and My Haunted Life

The Hat Man and Winged Woman

18 November 2019 | Shadow people, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Been listening for a while now a year at least and just heard the story of the Hat Man on Weird Darkness on November 6th 2019. Decided for the first time to share my story about this…… My family and I are not new to the paranormal being that we lived on a graveyard of old asylum patients for the last 30 years. But I do remember this vividly and to this day. I still see them both. First time was at age 5 and about every year until now for about 21 years I see the Hat Man and the Winged Woman once a year. She always follows him after he appears. He can almost appear on command I feel like. I usually bring people over to show proof

What Time is it? Asked the Hatman

13 November 2019 | Shadow people, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

My name is Nathan Romero. I am from Northeast Denver, in a neighborhood called Montbello. It was a summer night in late May early June and I was coming home from my night shift at UPS. As I am driving I can smell something awful-it smelled like something died and so bad I can taste it a little. I continue driving with my shirt covering my nose and I lit a black and mild to mask the smell. I didn’t think anything of the smell as I thought maybe it was the waste management plant next to my neighborhood. As I get closer to my block and the smell starts to get stronger, I gag a little bit and as I’m sitting at the stop sign before my house, I

Haunted Timberline Lodge from THE SHINING!

11 November 2019 | Haunted locations, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Sometime in 1981, I was leaving Seoul, Korea, where I was stationed with the 501st Military Intelligence Battalion and coming home for a brief vacation with my parents in Sacramento. After this vacation, I would be leaving for an OPFOR (Opposing Forces) unit in Fort Knox, Kentucky. During this small vacation, I hooked up with an Army buddy of mine named Wayne Johnson and we headed up to Mount Hood, Oregon. We were both fans of Stanley Kubrick/Stephen King’s The Shining. In case you don’t know it yet, the exterior of the Overlook Hotel was filmed at the Timberline Lodge at Mount Hood in Oregon for the Stanley Kubrick’s film adaption of The Shining. The hotel is majestic and it is fit for a King and his royal court. The

The Little Girl

04 June 2019 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Once, when I was just seven-years old, I was getting ready for bed and outside my window I saw a little girl on my front lawn. She just stood there and looked at me. I was so scared that I ran out of my room to my older sisters room. About a week later, things got worse. I began to see her in my room and in the bathroom. One night, I went to the bathroom and she was stood right there in the hallway. I decided to just stay in my room and go back to bed. I’ve alway thought my house was haunted. I still see her but she stays away from me now. Submitted to Weird Darkness and My Haunted life too by Fashioncraz102

The Thing in my Dreams

16 May 2019 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

I don’t know why this is happening, but I keep having the same dream over and over. It starts out in a woods, and it’s all misty and cold. I can actually feel the cold in my sleep. I never have control of what i’m doing. I walk down this long narrow path and I stop at a gravestone. It always has different names on it. The few I remember were names like, Elizabeth Kalchet, and Harry Dansor. Then I sit down next to the stone and start to play this weird flute. It has a skull at the end and the spot where the eyes would be are painted all black. Once there was even the eyeballs there. The tune I play is eerie, almost like one you hear

The Birthday Reaper

25 March 2019 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

It stood by my bed at night, the renegade of childhood solace, always wanting to be seen. Reminiscing through my teenage years, I sometimes shudder. But one October night tremors through me most. It was the night of my fifteenth birthday. My girlfriends had planned to stay over after the celebration but my mother had to be at work very early the next morning. So everyone left the party around eight p.m. Mom went straight to bed. I had showered, slipped on my favorite fuzzy jammies, and slipped beneath the comforter. With my feather pillow behind my back, I sunk my eyes deep into the tenth chapter of a mystery novel. Forty minutes in I became very drowsy and began to nod off. The book fell centerfold over my chest

A Paranormal Stench?

19 March 2019 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

It was 2005, in a decent house on a military base in North Carolina, with my then-wife when things started getting weird for me. I had been married for about 2 1/2 years at this point. Things were not at there best between her and I. There were a number of things that happened in this house in the 2 years I was there…. I’ll start at the beginning. Summer 2005: I had just returned from a tour in Afghanistan. I was getting ready to leave out again the following month. The day I arrived home from tour #1, my wife and I were talking. She was telling me about something strange that happened a few times while I was gone: About once a week, she would be woken up

I Saw the Hatman

18 March 2019 | Shadow people, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

I believe I saw the hat man. I was asleep, and for some reason woke up and was staring in front of me. I couldn’t move at all, but I noticed someone standing in front of our door. We have a hall night light outside our room, so it’s not pitch black. My husband keeps his vitamins on his dresser where the door is. So when I first noticed the figure, I thought it was him as he wakes up before me. I started to wake up more (I still couldn’t move) and felt my husband and baby still asleep next to me. Fear started to take over more, and I convinced myself someone had broken in.. I still couldn’t move. The dark figure just stood there staring at me.

The Glowing Ball in The Sky

31 January 2019 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

I recall as a boy going to school and seeing a glowing ball pass through the sky above me. I asked my friends if they saw it too and no one had. I remember being worried about what it was and why no one else had seen it….. then I read this experience… I’ve always had a fascination with the unknown, whether it be Paranormal, extraterrestrial or other. Although I was curious, I was also heavily skeptical even when growing up. My father was the opposite as he would always make jokes about the ghost hunter shows we watched together. When I was 10, I played little league football and my father would always take me to my games. One night we were driving back from one of my games.

The Noise

15 January 2019 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

This recent submission to the site is rather odd and it seems that Kate is really suffering so we hope that she gets some help and sorts this out….. On January 8th, 2019, I was coming back from school after our first day back from the winter break. I set my stuff down and was a little tired so I sat down for a while and day turned into night. As I got tired and bored I decided to go outside, so I grabbed my phone and headed outside. I sat on a wooden barrel. I had my headphones on at the time so it was hard to hear any noise outside. As I was on my phone, I did hear something and looked around. Then I took my headphones off.

You Are Not My Mom!

04 January 2019 | Haunted locations, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

So this happened about 10 years ago now. I have to start by saying I am a mother of 2 beautiful girls. Both born by C-section. I know its a strange detail but it is important. When my eldest daughter was around three, a friend and I decided to take both girls to a ghost town near the little town we lived in in Idaho. Everything was going great, most of the buildings were roped off so you really couldn’t get to close to anything. It hadn’t been a ghost town for very long. In the window of one of the houses was A land before time VHS tape. But it was fun. We were almost done walking through the paths when my little blond baby looked at me and

Merle

03 January 2019 | Creepy places, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

I have always been a skeptic, however, I had a really scary experience 5 years ago that I still cannot explain. My friend and I grew up fishing together. When we got older we fished amateur bass tournaments and had a large tackle box that we shared. I was just starting pharmacy school and working as a clinical pharmacy intern nights in a local hospital. There was a tournament in the morning that I had to miss because I had to work late so I promised my friend that I would drop off our box after I got off so he could fish the tournament with someone else. I pulled into his driveway around 12 am and walked to his garage, which is detached and sits in the back of

The Headless Priest

21 December 2018 | Haunted locations, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

It happened at the San Sebastian Cathedral Church. Its a cathedral, which was dedicated to Saint Sebastian in 1686 and it was the year 1987 when I was just 13 years old and performing as a sexton wearing those long white robes (cassock) We assist the priest on saying the holy mass. It was 6:00 AM and my time to assist at the service as a sexton. I was summoned then by my senior sexton to go to the priest room to get the prayer book that the priest forgot to bring. Through the darkness of the room in only a slight blink of light I saw this figure and it was a headless priest wearing his cassock. I rushed out of the room and I told my fellow sexton

The Creepy Sounds in My House

19 December 2018 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

I have a few encounters to tell you about that have happened at my house. I have been living in my house for 3 years now, which is an old 1940s cottage-style house. The first incident happened within the first 8 months of living in the home. I went for a long walk/run earlier that day through the neighborhood. Nothing strange happened until that night when I woke up in the middle of the night to sounds of a door unlocking. The sound was coming from the kitchen where there is a door to the driveway, the most commonly used door. After hearing a door open and close, I called out for my mother who was the only person in the area who had a key to my house but
