The Foundry’s Playful Presence
28 June 2024 | Audible Activity, Haunted items, Haunted locations, Your Stories, Your True Encounters
After my first unusual encounter at my wife’s clinic in The Foundry, I thought I’d seen the last of the inexplicable. But the old building had other plans. Months later, on a day when my wife needed to tend to our kids, I found myself manning the clinic alone. The staff were busy with clients in the front rooms, leaving me to hold down the fort at the reception desk. Suddenly, the silence was broken by the distinct sound of one of our machines starting up at the back of the store. It was a machine we used for client treatments, and it wasn’t scheduled to be in use. I made my way to the back of the shop, expecting to find a forgetful staff member or maybe a curious

My name is Michael Todd and I’m writing to you from Muldrow, Oklahoma. Per your post of 6-14-24, inviting individuals on your mailing list to submit a ‘creepy story’, I thought I would forward a brief, but rather frightening event I experienced a few years ago. I am the founder and lead investigator of ‘Spook Earth Paranormal’, based in Muldrow, Oklahoma. I’ve researched and investigated the paranormal for over 16 years. During this time frame, I’ve been scratched, bruised, pushed through doorways, had my hair pulled and witnessed so many ‘shadow’ incidents, I actually lost count. I’ve been to diverse locations such as Fort Chaffee, Arkansas, Waverly Hills Sanatorium in Kentucky and historic War Eagle Mill east of Bentonville, Arkansas. My encounters have been documented by audio and video recordings,

This story is 100% true. Trust me, I’m not the type of guy to bs people. First, let me put you into situation. This happened when I was a teenager (probably 2011, not sure about the exact year). It was summer time. I was living in a small town known as Saint-Hyacinthe in Québec, Canada. My house was right by a river known as the Yamaska river. It is a long and wide body of water that stretches far within the region of Montérégie. My neighbors lived very close to my home. They were very quiet people and I don’t recall them ever being loud or anoying in all of my 19 years living there. One of my neighbors was an old gay man living with another man who was

This happened about 30-years when I was around 13 and I swear it is 100% true no exaggerations. One late autumn afternoon around 4pm my sister knocked on bedroom door, “Come in” I responded. She explained that her and my mom were going to the store and wanted to know if I need anything. Now my room was in the back corner of the house and my window could see a small section of the street that I saw them pass a few minutes later. A few minutes after that there was the same knock on my door, “Come in” no response, “Come in” no response, “Come in!” Still nothing. My immediate thought was they had forgotten something or she was just messing with me. However, once I opened the

Shaun submitted some comments about his hotel in real time….. He doesn’t tell us where he is staying but…. 20th September and I am staying in room 130. I was woken up during the night with the TV turning on by its self with the volume full on. I switched it off and again, later on, it did the same again. To be honest, I’m a little freaked. 21 September and the TV came on once and I could feel something not right in the room. I don’t normally believe this stuff but something is strange and I have barely slept. Got two more nights but think I will have to change rooms. Submitted by Shaun

My 9 year old son and I were standing on a fishing dock at Lake Desoto inside hot springs village, Arkansas last Friday and we paused fishing to spot some bats with my light. In real time, I heard the “ha”, felt the breeze on my right ear and beard and then saw the volleyball size smoke/fog ring with a distinct trail. After watching the video a thousand times, the smoke ring is already visible and the “ha” sound happens as it passes me. I’m looking up at the sky so this thing originated above my head and was heading down as it passed me. There was a very light fog rolling on the surface of the water in the same direction the ring traveled. I have an overhead shot

Sparky was a white fluffy American Eskimo dog. He had just turned 14 in January. He was my dad’s dog but when he moved to Europe last year, we felt Sparky was not in good enough health to make the plane ride. The grief of losing his owner was buried so deep in him that it started to make him sick, no matter how much I doted on him. The seven months I lived by myself with Sparky, he was my dog and I know that he loved me just as much as I loved him. We would take nightly walks around by the lake near my house. Whenever I watched TV in the living room he would sit by me, start licking my leg, and after an appropriate amount

Quite a scary story in the Daily Express that I feel is worth picking up on. It involves a haunted mirror purchased from an antique shop. Its new owner is a UK Medium and he was able to capture a video with some rather creepy conversations with what he says is the ghost of a girl that haunts the mirror. The video may be seen here. The medium claims he started to hear unexplained rattling sounds (in fact, the video does include the sound at the beginning), before making contact with the spirit. The article states…. On the video he can be heard telling the ghost this is their chance to communicate, and he is convinced you can faintly hear the ghost replying, “you help me”. He also believes he

I grew up in an old country house, built near the start of the 1900s in SouthWestern Ontario. The house was out of the city limits, down a dirt road with no street lights and the closest neighbors were no less than 200 yards away from our property line. We had a large yard that was well populated with large old-growth pine trees, cedars, maple, oaks and willows. The inside of our house was rather basic, with a kitchen, bathroom, living room and our patents bedroom on the main floor, while my siblings and I had our rooms on the upstairs floor. The staircase was a typical old-school wooden staircase, complete with creaks and groans as you made your way up each step. The staircase had three initial stairs before

So I am a part time seller on eBay. And since I started doing it I’ve had a few odd occurrences in my house. Every weekend I spend the days rummaging through estate sales, garage sales, thrift stores etc. I resell just about anything I can make money on. One thing I frequently buy from estate sales is antiques. One particular day at an estate sale, I came across some children’s books from the 1920’s. They all had the name “Mary” written in pencil on the inside cover. I looked up their worth and they looked like good items to resell. I brought them home and into my office. I have two children, a 3 year old girl and a 2 year old boy. My wife leaves for work around

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

This experience happened in October, 21 years ago close to Halloween, when my oldest son was just 1 1/2 weeks old. I’m no longer with his mother but at the time she had a 1 year old son. We lived in a trailer close to the outer edge of town. It was around 9:30 pm and we had all the lights off with just the four of us sitting in the living room watching tv. All of a sudden we hear a loud thud on the roof coming from the master bedroom down the hall. Both of the kids start crying but not like they are hungry or needed a diaper change but like a tone of fear in their cries. We can both feel the fear in the pits

A woman was working as a telemarketer temporarily. She had been working at the company for only a couple of months when this incident occurred. When making calls, the telesales person had a dialogue on the monitor in front of them to read from while talking with people. The computer dialed the number, so the actual call was completely random with no choice in who was called. The phone rang and a man answered. She asked to speak to Mr. or Mrs. Jones (not the real name), please. The man told her, “It depends on what you are calling about.” She began her sales pitch and then asked if she was speaking to Mr. Smith. He answered with a laugh saying something like, “Yes. And just how much would I

I was in my freshman year of high school when I had my first official encounter with a ghost. My dad called me into the kitchen to talk to me, and when he was done he flipped a spoonful of whip cream in my face. He had been using the cream for a pie and thought it would be funny to throw some at one of us kids. I went to the bathroom to clean up. I was bent over the sink when I felt a cool hand on my shoulder. Thinking it was my mom, I glanced in the mirror only to see the face of my recently decreased great grandmother. She smiled at me and said “I love you, baby girl” then she vanished. I have always believed

But I’m thankful that I have my mom, sister, and grandma who all experienced it too. This strange… event? Still haunts me to this day. When I was 8 years old, I saw my pa die. Unfortunately seeing a person Struggle for their last breath isn’t something you can unsee. About a week after his passing, we (my mom, grandma, sis, and I) all came back to my grandma’s house after going shopping. Grandma went to check her messages on the machine since she had a few. One was just static, the other was static and inaudible voices. The last was much less static and the voice was very clear. It said “pa’s dead”. It was pa, there was no mistaking it. The sound in his voice was pure dread.
