This November we are going to bring you some of the most interesting #true paranormal cases we can find. You can discover more true, terrifying accounts of the paranormal right here. Back when I was in college I was living in a pretty rough part of town in a (very old and rundown) first-floor apartment. Nothing out of the ordinary happened there for several months until one night when I was lying on my bed watching TV. Suddenly… I heard three pounding knocks on the wall behind my bed. I ignored it. It happened again and again, and I kept hearing these knocks on the wall. It was just heavy pounding. Like someone was hitting the wall with both of their fists. At first, I thought it had to be some

Vodnik – The Czech Evil Water Sprite

19 September 2017 | Demons, Your Stories

One of the most famous characters in Czech fairy tales is a water sprite called “vodník” or “hastrman”. You can see him anywhere close to water and he embodies the spirit of water. He is usually depicted as green man riding on a catfish. He has green hair, bulging eyes and water is dripping from his coattails. He is usually described as an evil spirit that likes to harm people and who catches inexperienced swimmers in order to gain their soul. He is very resourceful when it comes to catching souls and will use ribbons and small mirrors to lure girls into the water, for example. He can also change himself into all kinds of animals such as a horse. But if somebody tries to ride him while he is

Not A Customer!

15 September 2017 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

This is my friend’s story. There is a Japanese crab restaurant and she works there as a part-timer. After she had worked there for a while, she heard many strange stories about the restaurant. The stories are about two ghosts that are there. One day, one of the employees she knew saw a man entering the kitchen. He had never seen the man before, so he assumed he was a customer. He wondered, “What is he doing going into the kitchen?” So he told the owner about it. “Oh, he’s not a customer”, the owner said. “He’s a ghost. We see him all the time.” The owner didn’t look scared at all. “He’s often here walking around,” he said. The other story is about a woman wearing a kimono. Some

The Return of the Living Dead

29 August 2017 | August 2017, Your Stories

This incident took place in the mid 1980’s. My mother died suddenly just a few weeks before this all took place. We were not terribly close as my parents had gotten a divorce during the 70’s. I was living with my boyfriend at his apartment. It was getting dark outside, and I had to go get my boyfriend from work at eight. I planned on cleaning and finishing my housework. I bent down to pick up something I’d dropped and standing back up I saw as clear as day, my mother just sitting in the corner of my hallway outside our bedroom. I only saw her for a split second. I even second guessed if I was seeing things, but it was just too real for me to conclude that

The Ghost Child: A True Paranormal Experience

26 July 2017 | 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

While staying the night in room 217 at the Stanley Hotel in Estes Parks, Colorado, my partner and I experienced three strange events we will probably remember for the rest of our lives.

However, in addition to a famous book and film, the hotel also has had a reputation for decades of reported ghost activity . Claims of paranormal activity have attracted visitors from around the world. In 1974, famous horror writer Stephen King stayed the night in room 217.

I was 15 and I was at a birthday sleepover and we were all in the living room. At around 11pm everybody went to sleep but me. I was lying on the couch watching TV and eating. It was 2 am and everybody is still sleeping. There is a half wall that separates the living room from the other rooms and all of a sudden, I can hear somebody walking from the other side of the wall and I thought it was the mom or dad, but I remembered that they weren’t home. I was getting very nervous. I kept my eyes on the TV but I could still see out of the corner of my eye and all of a sudden I see a head peeking from behind the

Right Said Fred

18 May 2017 | Haunted houses, Poltergeist, Your True Encounters

Today, I pulled someone’s post from Reddit as it is really quite a good story. I am researching poltergeist stories for the next Kindle short and this one shows that sometimes, they do have a sense of humor. This also reminds me of an incident I experienced and wrote about in one of the MyHaunted Life books…. I experienced any number of bizarre happenings when I was in college. One was the poltergeist in my best friend’s apartment. Strange stuff had started happening there early in the spring semester of my second year. Doors would lock by themselves. Strange scraping and banging sounds came from the walls. A sense of presence and being watched settled over things, objects would disappear and be found elsewhere. Even my friend’s skeptic roommate started

The Green Skinned Demon

11 April 2017 | Demons, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Two of my best friends are very “sensitive” to the paranormal. They both told me this story and it really creeped me out. They are sure they saw a demon. The two of them were walking downtown. It was still light out, and they were heading for a store. All of a sudden, they said they saw a young man, Andy, being harassed by the police. Andy is homeless, talks to himself, has stalked people, and writes about the devil. He is scary to be around. My friends keep walking after seeing him. Slowly, a car pulls up beside them. In the back seat with the window down is a teenage girl. She is leering at them. She is wearing all black, and is almost green in skin color, much

An Introduction To The Creepy, Crazy World of Paranormal Expert G. Michael Vasey – A Recent Interview

22 March 2017 | G. Michael Vasey's Nightmare Corner

G. Michael Vasey is the author of numerous books on what I would label ghosts and supernatural occurrences. When I had the chance to catch up with Gary, this evening, I found that labeling without understanding the foundations of an author’s philosophy has once more put me on the wrong path. I found the conversation fascinating. The topics discussed in a very short time were bi-location, origins of ghosts, time travel, and magic. Gary was a Texas resident for more than twenty years and brings an international, as well as Western, perspective to his unique area of concentration. Here are the intriguing thoughts of highly successful author and supernatural researcher Gary Vasey: In One Place with Gripping Author Gary Vasey BB: Tell me about Ghosts of the Living. GV: I

My brother and my daughter, decided to have a weekend away with me in a village where we stayed in a two-hundred-year-old inn, while there, we saw a notice board with a ghost walk advertised on it, we thought it would be a bit of fun, and agreed to go on it. When we turned up at the allotted time at the meeting place, which was in front of the old disused graveyard, we were surprised that no one else was there, I asked a young girl passing by if she knew anything about it, she told us it was only on a Friday night that the event took place, and this was Saturday evening, disappointed that we had missed it, we decided to go and have a couple of

Grandpa James and the Haunted Vase

14 December 2016 | Haunted items, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Today’s encounter is one that I really like….. Imagine being left such a gift? I was fifteen years old when this incident took place. A couple of years before my grandfather had passed away. He had lived with us for as long as I can remember, and took care of our family while my mom worked full time. He had a very strong presence, was psychic and had always believed in ghosts. When he passed over to the other side, my mom moved us to live with my grandma and uncle until she could find steady work. That’s when we noticed some strange occurrences taking place. It was just small things to begin with like ornaments that were slightly re-arranged when we weren’t looking, lights going on and off by
