Don’t Tell Dad

27 July 2020 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

I walked in my son’s room , and he was listening to ghost stories on his phone. I remember when I was his age, and I listened to Jump Stories . Jump Stories was a popular scary story podcast when I was younger. They say love is intense , but I disagree. Fear is stronger , and this is probably why I enjoyed being afraid, when I was younger. I noticed his eyes were closed , but his ears were open. He was laying down on the floor. Perhaps the rug turned into a magic carpet while he was listening to the story and took him to another world. . I tapped him on the shoulder and he jumped up, returning from his mini field trip. He looked up at

My First Encounter With a Shadowman

23 July 2020 | Shadow people, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

So, I was just 10 years old back then. I’m 39 now and I can still spot the shadow people almost every time. The first time I saw them was when I was sleeping late at night. At least I was trying to. I was awake but still very sleepy and my desk was just right next to my bed. It was a big old fashioned house in middle of a Village also known as Brna – there was two of them – a supposed girl one with long hair and her body was all black and she was very close to me – inches away. She was under my desk. She kind of was way smaller than the one that was very slowly walking trough the hallway between my

Hearing the Voice of an Angel or God

21 July 2020 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Here is my story. It was September 23, 1996 I was 25. I had called an ambulance because my dad had become very lethargic. His speech was slurred and He couldn’t stand. When the 2 LARGE EMT’s had gotten him into the ambulance they told me to get in the front seat. I sat there praying (silently, I think). After a couple of minutes one of the EMT stuck his head up front and instructed me how to call out an extra driver. My dad had gone into cardiac arrest. Within 30 seconds the driver was there and we were on the road. I was still praying “Lord, don’t take my daddy!! Please Lord don’t take my daddy.” Over and over. After just a couple of minutes. I heard a

Music from the Kitchen

20 July 2020 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

An experience that comes to my mind often is when I was in the 8th grade and my family was throwing a surprise 60th birthday party for my Grandfather. We got his sister to fly in from California back to us in Philadelphia, I had always heard of her but never met her till this time. Well, I went to bed at my normal bedtime the night before the party and my Aunt was staying at my house to hide her from my Grandfather. I left my Aunt and my Mother in the kitchen and said goodnight. At some point in the middle of the night I woke and looked down the hallway of our rowhome and saw a light on downstairs and I figured my aunt and Mother were

Our Haunted House in Chicago

17 July 2020 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Myself, my 2 sisters (1-5 yrs. older & the other 2 yrs.younger) & our mother grew up in a house with a spirit that never harmed us, only scared us. Our mother told us “it just wants you to know it is there, it hasnt harmed any of you“. My sisters both have their own unique  experiences of which I can only advise second hand info. I can provide details of my own experiences. I had 4 experiences. The first experience I was around 7 yrs old & was sitting on my older sisters bed (which is the primarily location of the haunting) I felt hands grab me by my ankles & pull me. I jumped off the bed to look underneath & saw nothing. She had 2 cats, but

Can You Help Him?

03 July 2020 | G. Michael Vasey's Nightmare Corner, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Off topic I know but…. My boys live in Texas. Two of them lost their jobs as a result of this COVID thing. Neither received any iota of help from the Government there – no unemployment, no check for COVID relief, NOTHING. Too poor to afford computers, their access to the internet is limited. Too poor to pay hefty phone bills, their ability to stay on the line 3-4 hours waiting for a Government employee to actually answer the damned phone to help them is too expensive. One of my boys, Liam, lives alone in Houston in a small one room apartment. His previous job paid more or less minimum wage and was a 2-hour bus ride away. He was let go. The only person he could turn to for

The Tragedy of Fairytale

03 July 2020 | Haunted locations, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

Pohádka means fairytale in Czech, but it is also the name of a reputedly haunted and cursed location in the Czech Republic. It all began May 1828, when in a nearby village called Strážov, a fire broke out. One house caught fire and a storm blew the hot embers across the roofs of neighboring houses. In the end, 78 houses including the town hall, were destroyed. The villagers wanted to know why why such a horrible event would take place in such an idyllic place and soon they had an answer. Near Pohádka by edge of the forest, was a small hut occupied by a strange old woman. There was talk of her being a witch. This poor old woman was determined to be the culprit and to be the

Sherman’s Blue Coats

01 July 2020 | Haunted locations, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

I write this experience as a way to possibly relieve long standing stress and fright that I have had to deal with personally since it occurred to me. I would hope that you will be able to respect what happened to me and take it for what its worth. Just know this experience still haunts me to this day, and I have only ever told one other person about this. They believed me, but due to my occupation, urged me to never speak of it in any serious fashion to anyone else. I suppose I am getting a little ahead of myself so I will start from the beginning. For sake of me telling this you can refer to me as “Jack”. I live in a predominantly rural county in

My name is Michael, and I am a PhD student in University of Szeged, Hungary. When I was about 8 years old in 1994, my entire family visited my parents’ village for Christmas festivities. The village is a small village called Ososo, in Akoko Edo local government area of Edo State Nigeria.

During that Christmas of 1994, my elder brother Andrew (God rest his soul) and I, went to our uncle’s farm to enjoy the fruits in the farm. One thing you should know about my village is the fact that people use all sorts of magical amulets and talisman to protect their properties from thieves and intruders. Water wells,

Strange Noises Upstairs..

15 June 2020 | Haunted houses, Your Stories, Your True Encounters

This just happened earlier this week, and I can’t stop thinking about it.  I work the overnight shifts in a group home for youth with special needs. Nights are typically pretty quiet, aside from the odd snore or kid quietly singing to himself. I’ve worked in this particular house for just a couple of months now, and have noticed the sound of light footsteps often coming from upstairs if I am downstairs. When I go up to check on the residents, they are all asleep. The house can’t be more than 30 years old if I had to guess, but I’m sure all houses both old and new make noises. No big deal. The other night while I was using the washroom on the main floor, I was suddenly startled

My Wife’s Grandpa was a Warlock

09 June 2020 | Your Stories, Your True Encounters

This story involves my mother-in-law and her father-in-law whom is my wife’s grandpa. This story was shared to me by my wife’s parents whom are people that would not joke around about paranormal situations nor make up stories of any kind. The story came up as a result of BBQ conversations which led to personal paranormal experiences. My mother in-law shared her story when she was pregnant with my wife. At the time, she lived in the 60’s in Sinaloa, Mexico at the family farm of her husband. My father-in-law worked as a truck driver and was away on the road working. The farm was quite humble and did not have much  to it. In fact, the room where she was staying at did not have a door, it only
