Strange Goings On At A Demolition Site in London

18 June 2018 | Your Stories

Strange story from London… can the past really be replayed in a broken down old building? Is history recorded on old derelict walls? Many, many, many years ago, I was working with a demolition team who were taking down an old hotel in London. The hotel had been in operation for many years, but it had become dilapidated and needed ripping down and a new building put in it’s place. It had been a dance hall during the pre-war period and at night the watchmen would complain of strange noises. One night-watchman told me that the first night he had spent on the job had been one of the most terrifying nights of his life. He had almost called the police. Naturally I wanted to know why. He explained that

Phantom, Ghostly Phone Calls From The Other Side?

15 June 2018 | Your Stories

Interesting addition to the site today. This lady had several calls that she could have classified as ‘paranormal.’ What do you think? Do you think these calls came from the other side? I had a series of phone calls that I can only describe as “ghostly.” A few months ago, just after Christmas, I started to get calls from an unknown number. At first, I thought it was a sales call, or some scam but the calls kept coming through and I ended up answering one. All I heard was static and what sounded like a scratching noise. I hung up and I got another call about twenty minutes later. Again, it was the same thing. The third call was the same, the fourth was stronger scratching and the fifth

The Love And Comfort Of A Parent From Beyond The Grave?

14 June 2018 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Today’s post is from someone who has never been a believer– but was confronted by a man who had a resemblence to her father. Was this her father coming back to comfort her? Never been much of a believer in the afterlife but I did have one thing happen that I still wonder about to this day. My father used to wear a very distinctive beret hat. Every single time he left the house he wore it. It was distinctive because it had a red and gold rim. He used to have it made especially as he said it would, “make him stand out.” A few years after he died I was going through a difficult patch and I was particularly missing him. I was having coffee at Starbucks when

Bizarre Paranormal Encounters in the War in Afghanistan

13 June 2018 | Your Stories

Today we are going to take a break from our usual true, paranormal tales to bring you something creepy… and new from www.mysteriousuniverse.org. “There can be no doubt that terrifying things can happen in times of war. However, in most cases it can at least be counted on that the enemy one faces is a living human being. What happens when other, more supernatural forces creep into war zones? What are soldiers to do when faced with mysterious phantoms, ghosts, apparitions and entities against which they have no experience and which they have not been trained to fight? War zones have attracted tales of hauntings and supernatural phenomena since time unremembered, and certainly one of the more modern such places of paranormal terror is the desolate battlefields of the war

Gypsie Who Knew What The Future Would Hold: A Creepy Experience

12 June 2018 | Your Stories

Not exactly paranormal… but strange. Has anyone experienced anything like this? Have been reading about experiences about the paranormal and wanted to share something strange that happened to me about eighteen years ago. I was a cleaner for a family and would often work alone at their house. This one time I heard someone knocking at the door. I went to answer it and found a gypsy standing there. Living in a rural area I knew there were often gypsies passing through the area, but I’d never known one to bother local residents. This one looked youngish, and just stood there. “I wanted to tell you,” she said. “You will have Craig before long.” My husband and I had been trying for a baby, but it was a secret and

The Hooded Figure With A Candle

11 June 2018 | Your Stories

Strange tale that comes from the Midlands, England. A gentleman is making his way home when he sees a figure holding a candle walking towards him… My father used to work nights and he once told me a very creepy story that he adamantly said was “the gospel truth.” He was driving home from work one morning while it was still dark outside. He had a thirty-minute journey and happened to be on a dark country road in the middle of nowhere. The road led to a larger road that would lead him directly home. As he belted down this road he saw a figure holding what he said was a candle walking towards him. He said he couldn’t make out any features, but he could clearly see this “candle”

The Phantom Jaywalking Ghost in England

08 June 2018 | Your Stories

A strange occurrence that took place in England. Incidents like this pop up quite often… Driving outside of Oxford, England I was on a quiet road I had driven along many times. About halfway along the road a man stepped out into the road from the left hand side. I stopped and watched as he stared at me, or through me, and walked across the road into the opposite hedge I continued on my journey. It was only when I got home I realized that he had walked from one hedge, across a road and into another hedge. Impossible? A few months later I was in the area again and found out that a farmer had been killed many years before while moving his cows from one field, across the

The Ghostly Vicar Who Still Haunts His Church

07 June 2018 | Your Stories

Unusual submission tonight. I’ve never heard of anything like this before… have you? I have participated in a lot of ghost hunts over the years, and I’ve seen a few strange things like orbs, lights, figures… but the one incident that really convinced me happened several years ago. I was visiting a church with my wife. We were looking at local churches to see which one we would like to get married in. We’d looked at a dozen or so by this time, and she was set on seeing this one last church. We arrived, parked, walked up the hill and stood outside the church. My wife was seriously interested because she felt the beauty of the location would really make the photos special. As we were about to enter

Touched By A Guardian Angel On A Rainy Day

06 June 2018 | Your Stories

Not a creepy tale at all. Maybe a more uplifitng story for Wednesday is in order? Maybe this is something for us all to take comfort from? Is there someone watching over us and making sure we stay safe? A few years ago, something strange happened. I’m not sure if I can call this a paranormal occurrence but I want to share it with you. Make of it what you will. I was sixteen, still attending school and on this day… very late. I had overslept, missed my bus, missed my breakfast and I was looking at walking all the way to school in the pouring rain which was at least a forty-five-minute walk. I was halfway down my street when a car pulled up and a man opened his

The Easter Bunny Creeper

06 June 2018 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

When I was younger, I used to live by the woods and could see a cemetery from my back porch. One Easter I remember waking up and seeing the Easter bunny and what really gets me is I remember smelling the wet hay. When I woke up I didn’t tell anyone, but there was an extra Easter egg in my house that my parents didn’t hide. Years later when I was in high school, I asked my parents if they ever dressed up like the Easter bunny and came into our room, they said they would never go through so much trouble. Then my younger sister, who I shared a bunk bed with when this happened, said she remembers when the Easter bunny came into our room and made a

Spirit Communicating Through My Dreams

05 June 2018 | Your Stories

Strange account today from a lady called Ari who has been seeing something spooky in her dreams. I’ve been having some nightmares lately involving a man standing at the bottom of my bed. I can’t see his face but can make out his outline. He doesn’t move. He just stands at the bottom of my bed. I presume he is staring at me? When I wake up in the morning I can vividly remember the dream. It has been happening for several weeks. I have also started to notice that little things have been happening around the house. I live alone, and I woke up last Thursday to find that the fridge door was wide open. I also found my wallet had been moved, and I’ve been noticing tapping and

The Phantom Blanket Puller in Texas

04 June 2018 | Your Stories

This is not a ‘horrific’ story… just a simple submission about a paranormal happening in Texas. Has anyone experienced anything like this? I’ve read a lot of stories about hauntings but the only experience I ever personally had was during a two month stay I had with my mothers family in Texas. They lived in Houston and were always complaining about things happening in that house. When I stayed there I only experienced one thing… but it happened every single night. I would get into bed and try to go to sleep. I would usually feel as though someone was pulling my blanket down the bed. The blanket would start at my neck and would end up slipping down to my chest. I never could work out why the blanket

Night Driving in Alabama Left Me Speechless

01 June 2018 | Your Stories

My brush with, what I STILL believe to be the paranormal, comes from a job I had twenty years ago as a truck driver. I would haul across the country and I never expected to see anything paranormal. One night I was going through Alabama when I saw something white standing on the edge of the road. I didn’t pay too much attention until I drove past and saw the clear shape of a woman, without a face, standing tall and watching my truck pass as she stood on the side of the road. This didn’t take place in a desolate, out of the way place either, it was on the edge of a city. I could almost see straight through her. What did I do? I kept driving into

Has Our Home Invaded By A Paranormal Entity Since Visiting A Spiritualist?

31 May 2018 | Your Stories

An interesting experience from a lady named Jane who has submitted some of the incidents taking place in her home. Lets discover her story… I have been reading a lot of the stories on your website and wanted to share some of the experiences I have been experiencing myself. We moved into a fairly old house and had absolutely no problem for the first few weeks. We had no unexplained incidents, no sightings, no visitations. Nothing. About a month ago my friend asked if I wanted to go with her to see a spiritualist. I thought it might be interesting and fun. We went to see this gentleman and it was fairly interesting, but nothing spectacular. I didn’t think anything would come of it. However, ever since I visited that

Paranormal Investigation Teams Take on Milford’s Lord Nelson Hotel

31 May 2018 | Your Stories

This fascinating first hand article about a paranormal investigation is from www.westerntelegraph.co.uk. It’s not every day working the local news you’ll be sat at your desk and someone sends in a message asking you to join their paranormal investigation team. But one fateful day last week, I was the local hack lucky enough to receive such a message. I spent my Saturday night at a pub, as many do, but instead of staring glassy eyed at the spirits behind the bar, I was searching for them everywhere besides. My guide through the Lord Nelson Hotel on Milford Haven’s Hamilton Terrace was one of Pembrokeshire’s premium psychics, Lee Grant. You can read the whole article by clicking here.
