Great Grandma Is Still Around Our House

31 January 2017 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

I lived with my paternal grandparents most of my childhood. When I was about 5 years old, my grandparents sold their large Victorian-style house to move us all into my great grandmothers tiny shack of a home. My great grandmother was in poor heath and had Alzheimer’s. My “Nanaw”, “Pop”, Uncle Bennie, and I all pitched in to help care for Grandma Grace. About a year later grandma Grace passed away in her sleep in her bedroom. I remember how strange it was that morning when I woke up and looked in her room and she was still asleep as she was usually awake before I was. It was our morning routine that I would wake up and go into her room and sit in the chair beside her bed

Did I See My Brother’s Ghost?

24 January 2017 | Haunted houses, Haunted items, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Back in 1990 or so, my husband and I were preparing to replace my mother’s kitchen flooring. The kitchen door opened on to a high outside deck with its railng top about 6 feet above the ground. We had the kitchen door open in order to take out the old linoleum, and I proceeded to bring in the shop vac. As I sat it down, it suddenly roared on with its loud motor-then shut off-then roared on again and off. My husband stopped pulling the refrigerator out from the wall and asked, “Did that just turn on without being plugged in?” Incredulously it had! I glanced out the open doorway and saw my brother’s ghost float by the railing. He was transparent but had color. He was in a walking

The Black Skeleton Entity in my House

23 January 2017 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

In September, 1988, when I was a kid, I experienced a black entity formed like a skeleton that haunted my house. The first incident took place one night when I had gone to bed early after watching TV with my parents. Late that night, around 3am, I was awake on my bed when the bedroom door opened and I heard a whistling sound, but I knew the TV was turned off and everyone was sleeping. I thought nothing more about it. Over the next few nights I kept hearing that sound all the time. I knew it was impossible to hear it, but it was real. I stood up on my bed to see outside the door, but it was too dark and I could not see anything. I knew

Why are You In My House?

20 January 2017 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

This happened in December, 1984. My family had just moved into a farm house in Arizona. I had a chair next to my bed that I usually just used for storage. I woke up one night around 3am. because I felt like someone was staring at me. I thought it was one of my parents at first. When I rolled over, I saw a teenage boy sitting in the chair on the left side of my office. All I could hear was a voice in my head screaming. I sat with a start and the boy stood up. In my head I could hear his voice. He wanted to know why I was in his house. I tried to tell him that it was our house and that we had

Shadows and Ghosts On Yelp

19 January 2017 | Haunted houses, Shadow people, Your True Encounters

Not many encounters being submitted at the moment, so to keep things going, I was looking at Tripadvisor again, but then I found YELP! What a treasure trove of encounters that site is. Check these out… (I have edited these accounts). a full discussion of shadow people, the Old Crone, and other weird experiences…. Chas S. starts a post as follows…. I believe in ghosts. Always have. But never had a personal experience to back up my belief. Until last night…and now I’m beyond freaking out. I got up to go to bathroom at about 2am last night, sort of half asleep, but definitely NOT dreaming or sleepwalking. I did my business, came out of the bathroom, and there was something standing in the corner of the living room, sort

The Ghost in a Wheelchair Who Terrorized Us

17 January 2017 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

I have to say that this story submitted by Christina is truly horrific….. When I was eight, my father retired from the military. We moved to North Carolina to be closer to my mothers family. My mom found a 3 bedroom home just 1/4 mile from my grandparents. My two sisters and I shared a room. It was huge! Enough room for our fullsize bed, a twin size bed, 4 dressers with a space in between you could have put two more full size beds and still had room. The first night there, I woke up in the middle if the night. I could feel someone staring at me. And it definitely wasn’t in a nice way. I rolled over towards the door and saw an old man in a

The Haunting Horror of Small Town England

12 January 2017 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

This story took place in the 1930’s and it was recounted to me by my grandmother. She explained that when she and my grandfather were a young couple with a small child moving in to the first real home, a two up-two down house, no garden, and an outhouse in a cobbled back yard. They did not know at that time that every family that lived there something bad happened to them if they stayed too long in the house. In fact, the last person who had the house before them had hung himself in the outhouse. Not long after they moved in, strange things started to happen. They would be sitting in front of the fire and the front door latch would begin moving up and down. At first, they

The Dark Entity That Came From The Basement

10 January 2017 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

My family and I moved into a little house in New Jersey. I could never go to sleep at night facing my room. I would have to face the wall and hide under the covers. I would always feel a presence right in front of me if I faced my room. It would watch me and I’d be terrified and feel the chills at night. That would be the worst part of the day. I was home alone while my parents were out for the evening. I was sitting at my computer when out of nowhere I felt it again — right behind me. I got so cold and I couldn’t move. I don’t know if it was a paralysis or I was too terrified to look back and see

Beware Room 10, It’s Haunted!

06 January 2017 | Haunted houses, Haunted locations, Poltergeist, Your True Encounters

TripAdvisor.com is a site to look for things to do and places to stay. The reviews can often be fun to read and sometimes, they can be very, very creepy too…..Here are some reviews of the Overland Hotel & Saloon in Nevada. It seems Room 10 may have a problem! I stayed in the room across from room 10. I could hear heavy breathing coming from the hallway so I opened the door to realize nobody was there – not a single soul in the corridor. I went to room 10 and because it was empty I thought why not? So I opened the door with anticipation. And I walked through the room. I felt a strange presence as I walked through to the bedroom. As if somebody was watching

Beware Duplexes in Nevada—You Might Get More Than A Tennant

05 January 2017 | Haunted houses, Shadow people, Your Stories

This tale took place in Nevada about twenty years ago. My family moved into an apartment complex. It just seemed like a normal apartment. Nothing special. The first thing that started happening was the intense feeling of being watched. It didn’t matter if it was day or night you were being watched and not only from within the room, it also felt like something was in the room watching me. I tried to ignore it but a few nights later I was walking to the kitchen and saw a huge dark figure run from my mother’s room into my room. It didn’t really run as it didn’t touch the floor. It was also tall enough to touch the ceiling with the top of it’s head. This figure wasn’t really a

A Hooded Shadow Stalked My Family

02 January 2017 | Haunted houses, Your Stories

I was about 14 and sleeping. In my sleep I watched this thing float up 2 steps on a landing, turn the corner, and float up the stairs. It was probably about 6-feet tall wearing a black robe; the kind you see in the movies worn by old monks or something. It wore the original hoodie. It was a loose, rough, dark cloth tied with a rope at the waist. I was in a big house with 3 bedrooms up top and a big area in the center instead of a hallway. My bed was straight across the room from my parents bed and there was another room space between us. It was built like an old fashioned log cabin so it was kind of all open spaces. I watched

There is Something In Our House

23 December 2016 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

We had moved into our house a few months ago, we got a good deal on a large house and decided to go for it. We spent the first two months without any kind of incident. The first incident however took place in my bedroom with my son, and we both saw something like a white ball floating in the middle of room. This has happened several times now. Then a couple of months ago, things started to change for the worst. My daughter falls asleep with the TV on, but I always set the timer so it would cut itself off. I would get up around 1am and her TV would still be on. It was around this same time in October 2006, that a neighbor of mine had

The Boy in the Mirror

21 December 2016 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

When I was a kid, we lived in a large house in Arkansas. The house was reportedly one of the oldest in our small town. I would spend a lot of time by myself at home, and would often see the spirit of a little boy. He was younger than me and I saw him almost on a weekly basis. He was as clear as day to me. I would try to talk to him—but he would ignore me. He looked wet and cold. After a year or so, he stopped appearing and I got on with my life. I started to think he was just an imaginary friend—I’d never spoken to him so it was highly likely that he was just a figment of my imagination. However later I
