Comments about the web site: Does my stepfather haunt my sister's home? In 1992, my mother and stepfather (72 years old at the time and in robust health) built a 2nd floor addition to the home of my sister. Shortly thereafter, he became ill with lung cancer, debilitating both physically and mentally until he died on Labor Day 1993, in the living room. Shortly thereafter, and to this day, my sister (who lives on the first floor) reports of hearing occassional footsteps walking through the apartment & the sound of someone banging on doors. Twice she actually called the police fearing that someone had broken in. She felt like a fool when they discovered nothing. (this makes perfect sense because -for some reason- my mother keeps the door to her bedroom locked when she's not there. My mother, who still lives in the apartment (alone) does not report to hearing or seeing anything (but then, she may be talking herself out of it because it is, after all, a scarey thing to be living with -even if the ghost is your spouse of 30 years).

Comments about the web site: Cathy and Joe's Ghost One night in the year 1976, my mother Catherine and my father Joe were sleeping silently in their West Philadelphia rowhome. It was mid-July and without the money to afford air-conditioning the compact rowhome was exceptionally hot and uncomfortable. In a deep sleep, Catherine, a laboratory technician at the time, felt something cool touch her cheek as she slept. When she opened her eyes to see what it was, she saw a cloudy formation above her and could make out a face in the apparition. My mother began to scream and the formation floated quickly out of the room and the door slammed shut with an ear-cracking boom. Take note that the door to their bedroom was uneasy to shut due to the thick rug underneath it. My father Joe, hearing the scream of his wife and the slamming of the door, jumped up and looked at my mother. He asked her what happened and she told him. Then she asked him to go check on the kids who were asleep in the bedroom down the hall. As he stepped out into the hallway, the extreme cold took him by surprise. It was so cold in that hallway that my father could see his breath. I would consider this to be quite odd due to the fact that it took place in a sweltering rowhome in July. Seeing that the children were OK he went back to the bedroom. Two days later my mother asked an elderly neighbor about the former residents of the house. My mother was shocked to learn of a couple in their mid 60's who lived their in the 1940's. When the wife died suddenly of heart failure, the husband felt he could no longer go on. He eventually hung himself in the basement. Chilling. Note: my mother is an ultra-conservative who still is skeptical about ghosts and she is not the type to fabricate a story like this.

Comments about the web site: Got a friend of mine who's daughter had a very young boy who died of the "death sleep". There's no explanation about those suddent deaths. The mother of the child was still living at my friend's house and she told me that sometimes, she still hears her baby cry. As the years passed, the family got "used" to it. Later, I forgot about this whole story, went to me friend's house and right after dinner, heard the baby cried by myself...

Comments about the web site: When my dad moved into his new house, I knew right from the bat that something was not right, that something was very odd about the house, and I had a bad feeling about it you see, for some reason, I attract supernatural things... You may call me crazy, but ask any of my buddies, when ever they go to the mountains, nothing.. they go with me, and we all see odd things, may it be something odd in the sky, or haunting red eyes running towards us and dissapearing right as they are about to strike. Well, anyways, I was in the house one night, and I had the oddest feeling, just like the one I get when ever something creepy happens, all the sudden, the lights turned on in the kitchen upstairs. So I went to go see who it was. I got about a quarter of the way up the stairs, and the lights went off. I went to my dads room, and he and his wife were fast asleep and my girlfriend and I were the only other ones in the house. Well just as I sat down again the lights turned on again.. this time I made it half of the way up the stairs and they turned off again, so once again, I went and checked and they were asleep. By now I was tripping bad, and so was my girlfriend. Alas, just as I sat down, it happened again, and I didnt even bother checking. So anyways.. here are other things that have happened in that house.. music from the 20's being played, yet where was it coming from?? furniture moving by itself, and footstep coming down the hard wood steps, even though noone was on them. I always thought that it was the ghost of an old lady, and sure enough, we found out later that the old lady who had lived in that house for years had died in that house. The weird part is is that she would come and go.. sometimes she would not make an appearance for months on end... last time I felt her presence was two Christmas' ago. I said outloud.. dad, shes back, then her presence was gone, never to return!

Comments about the web site: I truely believe in ghosts and spirits. Several years ago i was visited by my grandfather Stephen Alexander Batrin. I believe he was trying to say goodbye or something. I was on the phone late one night with a friend and had hung up with her about 12:30 am. The phone rang as i pulled up the covers over my head, i quickly jumped up out of bed so my parents wouldn't hear the phone ring. To my surprise the person or thing on the other end wasn't any friend of mine. i herad a voice calling me by name and he said " Diandra, this is your grandpa" i thought it was my living grandfather (Brenstuhl). It wasn't. He said " Its your Grandpa Batrin, i want to take you away. i hung up the phone quickly because i thought it was a joke. It made me cry a nd i woke my parents up to tell them about the phone call. They said that i was dreaming and to go back to bed. I did go back to bed and fell asleep. I was sleeping and i could feel a tapping on my right shoulder. I though that it would be one of my parents checking up on me. It wasn't I swear to this day that I saw my grandpa holding out it hand to me asking me to come with him and he wanted to take me away. i screamed out of fear and put the covers over my head and my mom came in. I told her who i had seen and i really don;t know if she believes me or not but i know what i saw. I could feel his presence in my room.

Comments about the web site: My wife and I had just purchased our first house. At the time we were living in a small rural community in North Carolina. The house was brand new, almost. The man who had originally had it built lost his job and defaulted on it before it was finished. So it sat empty for about a year before we happened upon it. While initially inspecting the property we got into the crawl space under the house. On one of the beams supporting the floor we found my wifes first name scrawled with a pencil. We thought that was quite curious and even a selling point of the house because we both believe in supernatural things. Like I said, we ended up buying the house and living there for almost four years. One evening we were relaxing in the living room, watching television when a bright light appeared near the ceiling in front of us. It was like a door opening quickly to a room that was brightly lit. Within an instant it vanished. We looked at each other and said "What was it ?". There was no sense of being or emotion. We just passed it off as one of those things. About a year after that I was sitting by myself reading when I got the urge to look out the door overlooking the back deck. As I watched a "cloud" approached the house at window level and just before hitting the house it took an abrupt upward motion and went over it. Within 2 seconds of the first one a second appeardd and did the same thing. My impression was that it was children playing, chasing one another about. The last incident that happened at the house was one evening my wife was home alone, asleep in bed. She awoke to hear a womans and a small childs voice. It was very vague. She felt as if someone was sitting on her chest. For five minutes she tried to get out of bed but couldn't. Eventually the pressure stopped and she got up to look around the house but of course noone was there. The other interesting aspect to this house was where it was what I found in the yard. I found many fragments of petrified burned wood and arrow heads of many shapes and sizes. One especially beatiful arrowhead was made out of a white opaque quartz. The area we found out had been populated by the Cherokee tribe and my great, great, great grandmother was a full bloody Cherokee woman.

Comments about the web site: Hi, My name is Barry Conrad & I live in L.A. Just a note to let you know that I have almost completed a 90 min. documentary to be released for both television and home video titled "An Unknown Encounter". This is the story using actual footage of a most terrifying haunting which I investigated in San Pedro, Calif. back in 1989. The video will show what happens when one of our researchers was "hung" in the attic of the house we were researching. We have both photos and videotape of unexplained phenomena.

Comments about the web site: Does anyone know anything about a spirit who takes shoes out of a closet and lines them up on the floor one in front of the other (that is, not side-by-side)?

Comments about the web site: This event happened back in 1988 when I was stationed in Fort Clayton, Panama. The way I remember it, it happened i n March of that year on the last day of the annual fair. I remember getting on the bus at around 12:30 or 1:00 a.m. with a friend as we headed home from a day at the fair; we got on the bus and started chatting with the bus driver, an amicable older asian fellow. Well, the bus route goes all over post; as the bus goes in past the main gate it goes past the center of the base, where the recreation center and library are at and then it goes into the barracks and next it goes into the first housing area and then heads to Bldg. 519, a small clinic/hospital and finally it goes through the second housing area and back down to the main gate and out. Well, the reason I'm telling you this is because we got on the bus just before it entered the barracks and sat there and talked to the bus driver; next, as the bus drove through the barracks, it approached a bus stop, so the bus driver stopped and this lanky(about 6'1")fellow got on the bus, and boy, he looked very, very sick. He was so darn pale and was wearing really old fatigues, to tell you the truth I had never seen this type of army fatigues until I saw a book on old army uniforms; this guy's uniform looked just like the ones used during the 40s - 70s). He got on the bus and asked the driver to let him know when we arrived at Bldg 519; next, he went and sat all the way in the back; my friend and I approached him and ask him if he was ok, he didn't answer; he just sat there, hunched over, as if he were sleeping, so we left him alone. Finally, we got to Bldg. 519 and went the bus driver called for the guy there was no answer; we all looked back, and there was no one in the bus but us three. The windows were all up, and the emergency door was locked from the inside. There was no way that this guy could have jumped out. We just sat there and wondered about what had just happened, and we did not know what to think of it. Next an MP(military police) stopped next to the bus wondering why we were not moving, and we told him everything. The only thing that he told us was that Bldg. 519 used to be a hospital for U.S. servicemen who had been wounded in combat during the 40s and 50s. At the end, the four of us just wondered whether the whole thing had been a prank played on us by some soldiers, or a real ghost apparition of a sick soldier trying to get to the clinic.

Comments about the web site: I was on a school bus. I had just been to the most boring basketball game of my life. I was bored out of my mind. Anyway, I was sitting on the bus, staring out the window. I could have swore that I saw my dead brother standing in the middle of a field. My brother has been dead for 29 years. He died when he was 6 from muscular scirosis. I was not alive and wasn't born for 13 years. I had only seen pictures of Greg, and I thought I was going insane. I knew I was tired, but I didn't know how tired I was. I just want to say, It was freaky. And I didn't like it. The only ghost I want to see Is KURT COBAIN. I hope you heard that Kurt.

Comments about the web site: Hi, my name is hilary and what i am about to say is true. When i was 5 years old, i lived in a house with my parents that was haunted. At night we heard things crashing about in the other side of the houuse. At night i was a restless sleeper and one night i fell out of my bed. My mom heard me fall, and walked in the room. She saw a glow aronund me, she told me they were protecting me. Well eventually we had to move and the spirits were certainly not happy. They turned violent.The week before we left at night things were breaking and slamming around. After we had moved into the new house they followed us. It was spring break and i think i was 7. My grandfather always told my dad that he was lying, so when we went on vacation we asked him to watch the houuse and feed the cats. It was early one morning he walked in the house and all the cabinet doors flew open and the teperature dropped extremely and all the drawers flew open with utensils flying all around him. We returned from our trip and he told us what happened and of course we believed him. So we had a spiritual advisor or someone like that come and open bibles and tell them to leave. All was peaceful for the time after. Then my dad found an old map of the city we lived in. The map showed that a cemetery was where our old house was. Hmmm...

Comments about the web site: I live in a house that was built in the early 1700's near Valley Forge, PA. We have tunnels under the house from the underground railroad during the Civil War. There are 5 ghosts which live in my house. a little boy, a little girl, mother and father and an old man. The first time I saw them was about 4 years ago when I first moved in. I woke one night to see the little boy and girl between my bed and the night stand. They seemed to be fascinated by the LED in my clock radio. You could see them but see through them to the LED of the radio. They lasted about 20 seconds then faded away. I asked my landlord about them and she saw them before too. A few weeks later, i saw the mother and father in my hallway. They were dressed in 1700's clothing. A friend was staying over one night and woke up to see a woman looking at her. I asked her to describe her and it was the same woman who i saw. My landlord had a party and showed me a picture of the house taken in the 1700's. The road out front was a dirt road and there were people standing all around the yard. She pointed out a lady & man and they were the same people I saw. I kept looking at the picture and I saw the little boy & girl peeking out a third floor window. I showed my landlord them and she said she never saw them in the picture before but they were the kids she saw also. Other thing happened like feeling someone sit at the foot of my bed but no one is there or people speaking but no one else in the place. I could write all night about this but there is too much to talk about. If anyone has any similar experiences, e mail me. Joe

Comments about the web site: When my husband, Mike, and I first moved into our San Francisco apartment, we sensed something present in the apartment with us. Our cats sensed it, too, but did not have the same reaction you read about concerning hauntings and animals. They weren't frightened of this apparition -- they played with it! We would see our older cat, Ivory, leap suddenly into the air when, a moment before, she had been sitting quietly washing her paws, and then she would crouch and spring at some invisible "prey" only she could see. The other cats joined in this "play" as well, but Ivory seemed to get most of a kick out of it. Sometimes this "invisible playmate" got rough. We'd see the cats leap into the air and then cry out in pain as though they'd been bitten or scratched by another cat. We never did find wounds on our cats' bodies, though, so it didn't seem to be a dangerous past time for them. About two weeks after we moved into this apartment and first noticed our cats' behavior, we began to smell candles burning. Mostly we smelled a scent of jasmine and sometimes a very strong scent of gardenia which seemed to be a perfume and not related to the candle- burning odor. It was so nice we didn't feel any reason to be upset about it. We accepted our "ghosts" -- the cat ghost and the ghost I sensed was an old woman who enjoyed burning candles and whose essence filled our apartment with lovely perfumes. I think it was our acceptance of these ghosts which helped them to move on. They both disappeared about two years ago. We rather miss them. I know our cats do! Ivory since has died of mammary cancer. Every now and then I "feel" her presence. A cat will jump up on the bed, which is not an unusual occurrance in our house. However, when I look to see who is about to pounce on me, there will be no cat there! The other cats often get their tails bitten and get pounced on. Since our initial ghost cat went on some time ago, I can only assume that this new ghost cat is Ivory hanging about to make sure we behave ourselves. It comforts us. Finally, we have always heard odd sounds in our apartment building. Mike and I thought these sounds came from unusually noisy neighbors. We'd hear people tramping up and down the stairs at all hours, the sounds of an argument and sometimes a downright physical battle would come to us from all directions, seemingly, and we blamed our then downstairs neighbors for the disturbances. We even complained about these neighbors to the landlord. Of course the neighbors denied these allegations and blamed US for making the sounds. When those neighbors moved out and the sounds kept happening, we decided to check on these noises ourselves. We'd hear the tramping of feet on the stairs and quickly run out onto the stairs to see who it was. Nobody would ever be there! We would hear noises of the same argument happening and leave our apartment to try to track the sound. The sounds came from no apartment in particular -- but from everywhere at once. These phenomena are still taking place and we ignore them now. I wish I could help these people move on just as we helped the old lady and her ghostly cat, but we haven't the information to do that. There doesn't seem to be a source for this latter haunting, so it's difficult to start. Ghosts are nothing to be frightened of. Our delightful ghost and her phantom cat and our more disturbing ghostly sounds haven't done anything to us but add mystery and delight to our lives. We DO wish our ghostly arguers would choose more appropriate times for their noisy battles, but all in all, no harm done. Rita Dawn and Mike Miller

Comments about the web site: I reenact the revolutionary war and was camped out at Yorktown VA. when I met four couples who had visited a civil war battlefield. They came apon a civ war soldier and thought he was a part of the parks dept. They noticed a strange smell of rotting flesh and the soldier seemed to float in mid air. They decided to close in on the soldier but it always maintained a certain distance from them. They decided to encircle it but when they got close the apparition dissolved. Many more to come.

Comments about the web site: when i was in grade 8, i went to a halloween party at a friends house. we were just young so we wanted to play "spin the bottle" my friend, who was having the party, said no, but didn't tell me why. finally i convinced him and we went in the bathroom so he could tell me without everyone else over hearing. suddenly the shower went on but no water came out of the tap and the shower curtains began to open. i tried to open the door so we could get out, but the door was locked and i couldn't open it. i actually broke down the door in order to get out. later on that night i found out that my friend's four year old neice had died in the house and sometimes liked to come out and play.

Comments about the web site: This story happened at my daughter's house in Fullerton, CA. When she enters her young children's room she sees something out of the corner of her eye but when she turns her head in that direction, nothing is there. Well, her baby , who is one year old now, wakes up he screams hysterically and is always looking in the direction of the toy box. That is where my daughter sees her thing too. One morning, her 31/2 year old daughter came out of the room and said, " they said give me your ba ba." My daughter asked her who "they" were and she said the kids in the room. My daughter told her she must have been dreaming but Libby said no, she was awake. Torie, her mother, asked her what they looked like and Libby said they were like Walker( a 2yr. old they know). Torie asked her where they were and she said, in the corner by the toy box.

Comments about the web site: While in the library at school (college) I was siting in a secluded area reading when I felt like someone had snuck up behind me and was watching me. I have trained in Akido for many years so I don't usually fear people sneaking up on me. I turned and saw no one. I got up and walked down the adjoining hall towards a drinking fountain and saw a large black man standing there. The eerie thing was that he was looking at me from the moment I turned the corner. I walked towards the fountain but he came towards me. He did not walk he floated or 'slid' towards me diagonally to block my access to the fountain. I stepped back and said, 'who are you' he opened his mouth and said 'forgiveness for sons of sons.' He spoke but his mouth did not move it just opened and a very flat voice came out, like a voice heard inside a closet. I froze, unusual or me, and he slid backwards a few feet, turned and slid through the goddam window! I ran over but there was nothing, the window felt warm though which was unusual because this was Feburary and bitterly cold. I went to a bar not far from the campus and got good and drunk. I found out that the library had once been the site of a stop on the underground railroad for ex-slaves escaping to Canada and that some had died from malnutrition or starvation during the trip. Was the apparition forgiving me as a 'sons of sons' or telling of the future? This happened in 1992 after I came back from Desert Storm. I spent my time on a ship waiting to do an amphibeous assault that never happened so its not PTSD or chemical warfare or anything like that. We never did anything but go in later and clean up Kuwait. I came home in the summer of 1991 and went straight to college. I now have a degree in Programming and work for a large local bank in the MIS department and no, I will NOT tell you where since I like my job and I'm writing this from work.

Comments about the web site: I HAVE HAD MANY EXPERIENCES WITH GHOSTS. CONTRARY TO MANY PEOPLE'S POPULAR OPINION, NOT ALL PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IN GHOSTS ARE CRAZY. YOU KNOW THE OLD AXIOM OF, ' I DON'T BELIEVE IN IT UNLESS I CAN TASTE IT, TOUCH IT, SMELL IT, HEAR IT, AND FEEL IT. WELL, I'VE DONE ALL OF THOSE THINGS( EXCEPT TASTE IT, OF COURSE) WHERE GHOSTS ARE CONCERNED. MY MANY ENCOUNTERS STARTED WHEN I WAS VERY YOUNG AND HAD CONTINUED UP UNTIL I WAS MAYBE 16 YEARS OLD. I AM STILL HIGHLY SENSITIVE TO THE PARANORMAL, BUT NOT AS NEARLY AS MUCH AS BEFORE. THE MOST FRIGHTENING CASE I'VE EVER BEEN INVOLVED IN WAS, STRANGELY, ONE THAT I WAS NOT TO EXPERIENCE FIRST-HAND. TO ENCAPSULATE WHAT HAPPENED, SOMEONE I KNEW HAD A YOUNG FRIEND WHO WAS HAVING TROUBLE WITH ATTACKS ON THEM BY AN ENTITIY OR ENTITIES. STRANGULATION, MANIFESTATIONS, AND FOUL ODORS WERE ALL PRESENT; WHICH MIGHT LEAD ONE TO CONCLUDE THAT IT WAS A POLTERGEIST OR DEMON INFESTATION, AS OPPOSED TO YOUR CLASSIC HAUNTING BY A GHOST. THE WORST THING WAS, THIS YOUNG PERSON TRIED TO TELL THEIR PARENTS, THEY WERE NOT BELIEVED AND EVEN RIDICULED. SO, FINALLY, I TOLD MY FRIEND TO TAKE SOME HOLY WATER TO THIS PERSON'S HOUSE, AND BLESS THE HOUSE, ADDING A FEW PRAYERS; ALSO, MAKING THE SIGN OF THE CROSS. WHEN MY FRIEND WENT TO THIS PERSON'S HOUSE, THE MOTHER THOUGHT IT WAS FUNNY, AND DIDN'T MIND WHAT THEY DID UPSTAIRS. WHEN MY FRIEND WENT INTO THIS YOUNG PERSON'S BEDROOM, THE ATMOSPHERE WAS STIFLING AND THERE WAS A DISTINCT ODOR OF ROTTEN EGGS IN THE AIR. AS PER MT INSTRUCTIONS, I TOLD MY FRIEND NOT TO BE SCARED AT ALL, IF POSSIBLE, SINCE NEGATIVE ENTITIES TEND TO BE ABLE TO SENSE FEAR AND DRAW FROM IT. SO, SHE SAT DOWN ON THE BED TO GET HER EQUILIBRIUM, WHICH WAS VERY OFF BECAUSE OF THE DIZZYING PRESSURE OF THE ROOM, AND SHE NOTICED THERE WAS SOME ODORIFEROUS LIQUID ON THE BED. QUICKLY, SHE JUMPED UP, AND WENT THROUGH THE RITUAL. AFTERWARDS, AN AMAZING TRANSFORMATION TOOK PLACE. THE ROOM FILLED WITH SCENT OF ROSES. THE PRESSURE NORMALIZED, AND YOU COULD BREATHE MUCH EASIER. ALSO, THE WETNESS ON THE BED HAD DRIED COMPLETELY IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. THE HOUSE HAD BEEN CLEANSED, SO TO SPEAK, AND AS FAR AS I KNOW, REMAINS THAT WAY TODAY. AN INTERESTING SIDEBAR TO THE STORY- THE PERSON WHO WAS BEING ATTACKED BY THE ENTITY CALLED ME ONCE OUT OF FEAR AND NEEDING ADVICE(MY FRIEND HAD TOLD HER OF MY OWN EXPERIENCES, AND SUBSEQUENT SELF-EDUCATION ON THE PARANORMAL), AND WAS ATTACKED WHILE ON THE PHONE WITH ME! WHEN I TOLD HER TO SWITCH PHONES, AND SHE LEFT THE ROOM TO DO SO, THE ENTITY HUNG-UP ON ME!!! IT WOULD BE FUNNY IF IT WERE NOT SO CHILLING. I HAVE MANY MORE THEORIES AND STORIES, BUT NO TIME, AND PROBABLY NOT ENOUGH SPACE. BUT, THANK-YOU FOR AVAILING ME OF YOUR TIME.

Comments about the web site: My Friend Kathy's new husband just sold his house to a family of native americans who have a teenage daughter. They recently recieved a call from the realator about the house. It seems that strange things have been going on. The daughters bedroom door has slammed shut several times (it now being winter and no windows open). She not being able to open the door, has called for help from her mother and father, who cannot open the door either. When the door is opened it only opens to about an inch and no farther. The family has left the house only to return to a black gooey mess in their sinks. The goo smells of human waste. After days of not having water in the house, they called a plumber, only to find out that someone is turning their main valve off, located in thier garage. This has happened several times. The master bedroom is upstairs over the garage. One night the parents heard a noise in the garage and the father went to investigate. He turned on the bedroon light only to have it "pop" and the light bulb burned out, he then went to the hallway and the same thing happened, then to the stairwell, again it happened, to the kitchen, "pop" again, then to the garage where this light popped and burned out. After having the tribal medicine man come to their home, they have seen a figure of a woman walking up the staircase and disappearing into the wall.

Comments about the web site: The Little Soldier Boy I attended a boarding school named Culver in the middle of nowhere, amidst the cornfields of Indiana. It is known for it's strong military academy, which has existed since 1894. The place is over 100 years old, the number of people that have died there is beyond count. One freezing night in the middle of winter I was searching behind the old Ice Rink, trying to find a glove I had dropped the day before. It was pitch black that night and i searched alone, or so I thought. Suddenly, I felt, yet did not see, the presence of another being. Startled, I looked up and saw it....Right before me was a tiny boy in a turn of the century military outfit, his gold buttons shining eerily bright in the darkness of that night. He looked as if he was only 5 feet tall, if even. He was a dead boy, one that must have died way back at the turn of the century for his uniform was pathetically outdated. As I turned slowly and walked away, my hands were shaking and my face turning white. When I ram into my friend, as I reached my Dorm Room, the first thing she said was, " You look like you've just seen a ghost." Indeed, I had.

Comments about the web site: It was two years ago, in 1995. My house is haunted by the man that built our house. He went crazy, and as he was leaving the house in a straight jacket he screamed. He said over and over that he would never leave his house, his soul would always be here. Well one night, I was laying in bed, it was about 3 o'clock in the morning. I saw a bright flash of light out of the corner of my eye. I thought nothing of it because it was storming outside. I saw another flash of light, but this one stayed more than a flash. It looked like a star on my celing. A couple of seconds later there was another, and another. There was three tiny stars on my celing, then they were gone. Before I could get up, or speak another now larger than the others were flashed and did circles in my room above my door. I froze, I couldn't move, couldn't speak. I was stuck with fear. To this day I wish I would have stayed in my room that night simply out of curiosity. It was interesting, and frightning at the same time.

Comments about the web site: The two small stories i am about to tell revolve around my grandmother. When my grandfather died, it was a devastating loss to her. At the funeral she leaned over to kiss him a final goodbye. She swore to the good Lord that she had felt him kiss her back. His lips were warm. The next happened after my great uncle died. My grandmother was sitting in her living room, watching tv. At the dining room table across the room appeared a figure which resembled my great uncle. Not knowing he was already dead, my grandmother asked him how he got in? He remained silent, but my grandmother instantly understood. It was as if he was sending messages to her without the use of words. She went to bed that night in a state of peace. The next day she received a call from her sister, saying that my great uncle had died the night before. My grandmother asked what time he died, and learned that he died almost the same time as he appeared to her in her dining room.

Comments about the web site: Once, while I was trying to fall alseep, I looked at my white curtains, and they started to turn all different pastel colors. Fearing for my soul, I closed my eyes, hoping the apparition would pass. With my eyes closed the visions I saw were terrifying. The first vision I saw was a tiny baby wrapped in a blanket. This then changed into a man, whose face only was seen. This man was obviously in terrible pain, whether mental or physical, but soon his entire body was visible and vanished, leaving his heart floating in the air. The heart went down into a different little baby. I have no clue what this vision means, but I would be interested in any suggestions you might have.

Comments about the web site: When I was pretty young, I was trying to sleep in my room and failing to do so. I had a trundle bud which I shared with my brother who was sleeping soundly. Suddenly, I noticed movement by the stairs and watched as a sheet-white man walked up the stairs and approached my room. He was bald and wearing a black cloak/robe and just stood in the doorway and stared at me. I was majorly freaked and shook my brother but he wouldn't wake up. Then, the man just turned and left as silent as he came. To this day, I don't know what it meant and I am the only witness to it. Please e-mail me if you have any interpretations of what it might signify.

I had been sleeping on my back, and it was on top of me, and it was making it hard for me to breathe, and then, before it vanished, it kissed me on the right side of my neck. After this, my dog, which was at the bottom of the bed was groggy. I also heard a voice which was muffled as if I was underwater.

Comments about the web site: In 1992 I moved from Arlington to Richmond, VA. I've had the ability to communicate with spirits for about 10 years. I moved into an old civil war era row house. I knew from the begining that there was something in the house but it took more than a year for it to reveal itself. It turned out to be the ghost of a teenage girl who had died in the house. Her name was Angela. She was very friendly and we became very close. She used to like to read over my shoulder. I would go out and by books with the type of stories she liked and we would read them together. Sometimes when I went to sleep, she would lie down in my bed with me. In 1994 I had to move back to Arlington. If I concentrate hard enough, I can still contact her but it's very difficult. I miss her a great deal and hope we can be together again someday.

Comments about the web site: My name is Ian Todd and I have a tale for you. I am 17 now, but it happened 3 years ago in Lincoln Park, New Jersey. I was staying at my Aunts house about a mile away from my Grandmothers. My Uncle hap killed himself in their house with a shotgun. I spent the night there If I remember correctly it was June 18, 1994. I went to get a drink of milk late that night so I wandered into the kitchen. Every light in the house was off except for the refigerator light that came on when I open the frige door. I noticed sort of a soft glowing light emitting from the living room area that is adjacent to the kitchen. So I closed the frige door and went in there to drink my milk. I sat down on the couch wich looked right at the chair that my Uncle killed himself in. It was pitch black, middle of the night, but the room seemed to be lit up sort of. I just sat there and I stared at the chair, the back of it was facing me. It seemed to get lighter and lighter in the room especially by the chair. It also got really cold, which i thought was the air conditioner but that haddn't been on all day and still wasn't on. So I got up and went into the kitchen to put my glass in the sink when out of the corner of my eye I saw the chair turn around. I asked for my aunt to see if she was up but she wasn't because I could still see her snoring so I got sorta scared. I look at the chair ande then I saw my uncle sitting there, shot gun in hand. It seemed so real. I sat there and just stared. Then he took the gun put it in his mouth and I heard a click , like the click of a trigger and he was gone. I ran all the way back to my grandmothers house in the middle of the night and I have never went in my aunts house at night ever again.

Comments about the web site: Well hello there! It is nice to meet all you wonderful people. I saw the devil once, not a ghost. I was doing a report on Satanisim and cult worship for one of my college classes. I had boughten a satanic bible and a Ouji board to boot. I did my report, and I got like totally into it. It was really scary, I went to bed and I thought I had a bad dream , but it turned out to be a reality. I was in my room then all of a sudden I was like on an alter with all these demons around me. They touched me and it burnt me. It hurt and usually you can't feel pain in dreams. THe next thing I new is that the started to chant something. I couldn't quite understand them. Something about the black god, skin like suet and a soul of a thousand tortured souls. I then fond my self lying naked in the middle of a cemetary ontop of crypt that was 3 miles from my house. My sides ached with pain as I looked there were blisters exactly where those creatures or demaons had touched me. I then recovered and burnt my satanic bible and it was all over.

Another night they were sitting on the porch and saw a dark figure walk around the house slam the door and no lights came on in the house. One night we heard wind chimes, stuff falling in the water. When we were leaving we saw a child sitting on the table then jump off and then it ran. I didn't belive the stories at first but then when I went it felt really spooky.

Comments about the web site: After recently seperating from my husband i moved into a small duplex apartment with my daughter then 10 months old. i started to notice little things at first for example lights being on that i was sure i had turned off,the dog would growl at a unseen presence etc. After a few months I began to notice my daughter almost playing and laughing with someone or something i could not see. Pictures came back from developing distorted for no apparent reason. i never felt scared until one night i felt someone sit on the bed i was lying in. Startled i jumped up but nothing at that moment i decided to move. About 2 years later while driving with a friend she says to me " see that duplex over there?" curious after realizing she meant what had once been my creepy apartment.I responded "What about it?" In a very serious voice she informed me that a friend she had went to high school with had ended her life there while sitting in her room on the bed. anonymous

Comments about the web site: About forty-two years agos when were children ages 6,7,9 visiting our grandparents in Cincinnati we had our first ghostly expereince. Our grandmother, Mae had sent us to bed for our after- noon nap while she went to the market.Our grandparents stayed in a brownstone and the bedroom was in the front part of the house then there was a short hallway with stairs leading into a small bathroom. As children often do when they are suppose to be napping, we were playing in the bed when we heard the front door shut and then we heard footsteps coming up the stairs. It did not sound like our grandmother but we became very still and quiet in the bed but peeping from under the covers. The footsteps were getting closer and louder. By the time it sounded as if the person should be at the top of the stairs all three of us peeped from the covers to see who it was coming up the stairs. To our surprise a man dressed in a raincoat, rubber boots and a rain hat went straight into the bathroom. We looked at each other with horror in our eyes but we continued to stared into the hallway waiting for this man to come out of the bathroom. We did not know if this man was coming into our bedroom or was he going back down the stairs. We waited for what seemed forever and then eventually we heard our grandmother's footsteps coming up the stairs and we yelled so she could hear us to warn her that there was a man in the bathroom. When she was able to calm us down she told us that the man often comes to visit. He at one time lived downstairs with his wife, her good friend Miss Addie. From that time on we never was the keen on visiting our grandparents. That was my first and there has been several other encounters for me and now my husband.

Comments about the web site: I kept hearing stories of a apartment building near my neighborhood. It had like over a thousand apartments in the complex but there's this apartment which never seems to be rented out in the 14th floor. That aparment was rumored to have ghosts in there. That was the only floor out of the whole building that wan't lit really well also. Which was a good place for teens to hang around, cause it was all quiet and stuff. One day my a bunch of my friend ten guys were up there smoking pot some were high and some weren't. They were in the hallways that next to the elevator.They decided to leave. When the elavator came and old lady walked out. She was like you bad boys all smoking out here, and she was like why don't you guys come in my house and sit. My friends were like high and they wanted a place to sit anyways so they went. When the old lady open the door it was empty completely no furniture and no lights. My friend were like mad scared to they just ran like a bastard down the hallway. And the only thing they don't remember was, was it that apartment never got rented out.

Comments about the web site: Heres a story that happened to my mom, a very sane person , when she was about 18 or 19 and married to my dad who is just a couple of years older then her. It happened in Ewa Beach, on the island of Oahu. They were a young couple with a baby boy who was not even a year old yet. It took place in a two bedroom home that had no bathrooms but did have an outhouse. My mom was home alone one evening and was walking past my oldest brothers room, who was with his grandfather that night, and thought she saw a shadow go past her sons window. The house had been built on a hill with stilts on that windows side of the house because it was built on a hill. She thought that it would be impossible for a shadow be that high to reach the window but went to the window to investigate anyway. She didn't see anything. As she walked out of the bedroom she heard "Pssst..", as if someone was trying to call her or trying to get her attention. She went back into the room thinking that it came from outside, by the window. When she got in she heard it right next to her ear "PSSST!". She bolted out of the house and ran to the neighbors house and told her that something is in her home. They told her "We know. Thats why the people before you left that home.". Also in the same house was an incident where my dads friend had to go inside the house to do something. My dad was outside and his friend went in alone. Not long after he came running out of the house terrified and told my dad "Your house is haunted! There is something in your house!" He was so frightened that he NEVER explained or wanted to talk about what it is that he saw. Whatever it was that terrified my mom and my dads friend never bothered my dad. My dad was a big, burly, Harley riding freak in his younger days. Do you thing whatever it was was intmidated by him? My parents didn't stay in that house long before they moved out. My mom told me this story and I do believe her. My mom is a very honest, sane, smart, and trustworthy person. She's one of them people that makes you feel stupid when you watch "Jeapordy" with her because she is answering practically every question and your just sitting there still thinking of the first question. Now that I have given what I think is a good description of my mom, you whether to believe the story or not. I honestly believe that something happened that night.

Comments about the web site: I didn't actually see the ghost, but I was in the basement of my house doing laundry and my dog was coming down the stairs to be with me. Usally, she comes up the the dryer and stands in the way, but not this time. She wouldn't even come near the dryer. She woulsd stand in the doorway and whine. She wouldn't come in the room at all. Then, I heard a foot step in the unfinshed part of the basement which connects to the laundry room. I bolted up the steps so fast, the dog right behind me all the time. I went back down there today and the dog started down the stairs, passed me up, but when she got to the bottom of the stairs, she sat down quickly, whined, then bolted back up the stairs. I have no clue what is going on, so if you or anybody else can give me suggestions of what to do. I would appreciate it.

Comments about the web site: My friend Brittany lived in a very old house. It was very large. However, she did not live in the mainhouse on the property. She sometimes told me that she saw children on the swingset by her house. The trees that held the beam which held the swings had been there for over a hundred years.One night, when we were playing outside, we looked up to the bedroom window of the mainhouse, and there was a middle aged woman in a simple white dress and she glowed with a pale blue. I couldnt make out any details, like what her face looked liked, but i knew she was watching us. We became very interested and decided to find out as much as we could. We asked family members of previous owners and neighbors. We came up with a few sightings of children on the swingset, and a man who fixed the roof. There were quite a few sightings of the woman which we had seen.After a while, we grew bored of the topic. One day, we were playing on the little beach right in her backyard. We found 3 identical keys. We asked Brittanys father about them and we soon learned they were keys to the mainhouse. But the strange thing was, only 2 copies of that key had ever been made. A few days later, we found ourselves sneaking into the mainhouse. We went up to the bedroom where we had seen the woman. When we opened the door, she was crying softly to herself, sitting on the bed. She looked up at us, then stood up and wispered "Help me." she reached out a hand to us. We got scared, remember we were only about 10 years old, and we turned and ran down the stairs. Exactly one month later, Brittany and her family were forced to move out of their house. They had to sell it and the mainhouse.I have never seen the lady again. But every month or so, she comes to me in a dream, just reaching out to me and beging me to help her. but every time, i get scared and turn away. sometimes i dont wanna get scared, sometimes i want to help her. but it seems it is my fate, since i did not help her when i could, i cannot help her when i am brave enough.

It's ghost central" You can get alot of "info" if you ask the right people I know of over a dozen haunts in one part of town alone. I have witnessed many. Some one can write a couple of novel sized books about this place.

Comments about the web site: I was riding my bike and I looked at the house on the corner of my block. In the window, there was a misty form floating by the window. I looked in the backyard and there were 2 dogs barking and snarling at me. The gate was OPEN. I took off on my bike.

Comments about the web site: Several years ago, I was helping two friends lay a water line at the site of an outdoor drama in the mountains of Virginia. The site of the ampitheater is on the ancesteral lands of the Ingles family (the same Ingles' of the book "Follow the River" by James Alexander Thom) and we were working in an area known to be the family grave site. As we dug the ditch for the water line, one of the other men, John, uncovered what he thought to be part of a human skeleton. Being a bit of a skeptic, I went to look at what he had found, believing that he had discovered the bones of a large animal; we were only digging three feet down and I couldn't believe that he had actually found a grave at that shallow depth. I was facinated at what he had found: the mandible and partially intact skull of a human! The skull and jawbone showed signs cutting trauma, as if the victim of some terrible attack by an axe. The site is known to have held the remains of several victims of the massacre of 1755, an uprising of the Shawnee and their allied tribes against the white settelers in the New River Valley. We agreed that this must have been a victim of that attack: struck in the face by the trade hatchet of one of the attacking indians. We respectfuly coverd the remains and said a few words over the grave, then re-routed the ditch to take it away from the burial site. Three days later I spent the night with my friend John at his parents house. John had the good fortune to share his life with an old battle-axe of a German Shepard named Duke. Duke had to be the toughest dog that I had ever met, having fought a bear in his youth, and had never shown anyone the least sign of cowardice in his long and eventful life. He would soon show the fur stand up on his back and run for his life. That night after watching the late news the entire family retired in the usual manner, with John's parents saying their goodnites and John and Duke sliping off to sleep together in the bedroom in the attic. I soon fell asleep on the sofa downstairs. I was suddenly awakened by the sound of the screen door by the kitchen being torn off its hinges! As I leapt off the sofa I could hear Duke clawing at the door of the car outside trying to get in thru the gap left at the top of the drivers window, shrieking as if he had been shot! Suddenly, there was a crash from upstairs as John fell down the steps from his room. He was running and screaming "Oh My God! Oh My God!" As he burst into the living room, where I stood in a daze, I saw such a look of terror in his eyes that it took my breath away! I caught up to him and Duke in the car out front. Duke, the dog that beat the living hell out of a 400 pound Black Bear, was shivering on the floor under my friends feet. John was no better off. I finally got him to unlock the door and I jumped inside. "What the hell happened in there?" John was awakened by the sound of Duke growling on the foot of the bed, looking toward the North-West corner of the room. As he tried to see what had the dog so upset, he felt as if someone had just sat on the foot of the bed. It was at this moment that Duke yelped and bolted off the bed and down the stairs, leaping thru the screen door in the kitchen. Terrified, John witnessed what he could only describe as a "darkness, darker than the rest of the dark in the room" enveloping the foot of the bed. If I had not witnessed Duke's display of sheer fright, I would have never believed John's story and dismissed it as a bad dream. Duke, after all, fought a bear and won; nothing, of this world at least, could ever frighten Duke...

Comments about the web site: The camalot theatre in Nevada Iowa, I'm not too sure of the actual date, but in the early 1900's a man was painting a wall by the top window of his apartment.(I should say that the apartment used to to be an apartment complex)he was then pushed and fell to the street and to his death. Since then no-one has been able to stay in the apt. The actuall apt. is still there and is being used for storage. But in the 50's it was still being rented out and my mothers best friends brother lived there for 4 days and this is his account. I only heard this story once, cause he didn't like to talk about it. the first night he would hear footsteps of heavy boots and doors would slam. the 2nd night the covers of his bed would keep coming off and when he would come home from work, his dishes were all out on the counter. The third night he actully felt as if someboudy was touching him in his sleep. and the 4th night he was actually abused. beeten very badly, he had black eyes, and swollen cheeks and bruses from where he was beaten. needless to say he left the apt. that night.--this was 40 years ago. today I am very good friends with the manager of the theatre. And wierd things continue to happen there. There storage is in the top apt. and things get moved from where they last set them down. Stuff gets broken. and in the theatre itself there is a big shandaleer in the entry way this has been seen moving with no explan- ation. there are no vents or duct anywhere neat this light fixture. And late at night you can somtimes hear footsteps or shuffeling from the top apt. I work across the street from the theatre and I often look up at the top windows that go into the apt. A strange feeling comes over me. As if Im being looked at too. who knows I probably am being looked at. I would be curious what a psychic would sence from in the apt. Maybe she could help him to the other side.

Comments about the web site: It was a quiet night in April of last year when my great Grandmother died. My mother and my aunt shared a bed so they could talk all night. After my aunt fell asleep, my mom woke up and saw a figure standing at the end of their bed. It had no apparent gender or facial features, just an outline of a human figure. My mom says she wasn't alarmed or disturbed at all, but felt a sense of peace and fell asleep. A few months later, my cousin (11 years at the time) woke up for no reason at about 3 am and saw an old man with a kind face standing in the middle of her room. She was not alarmed or frightened either, but went back to sleep at peace. Her brother had a similar experience about a week later. No explanations have not yet been hypothosized.

Comments about the web site: I knew something was strange as soon as my family moved into the house. First it was footsteps on the second floor pacing back and forth. Even my dogs head used to turn and follow the sound of them as they went back and forth. We used to find our baby son in animated converstation while standing in his crib...the only problem...there was no one there. No one visible to my eyes, that is. On the first floor, a heavy, wooden door would come off its hinges. The top door hinge pin would be pulled upwards and be found across the room. While sitting in the L-shaped kitchen, a ball of fire came flying through and made a left hand turn. This was seen by my father-in-law, my wife, and me. One calm, summer evening, I was reading downstairs in the den. Suddenly, I heard a noise that sounded like the gutters of our house were being ripped from their moorings. I immediately ran outside to check the damage...but nothing had happened. After all these strange happenings, my wife and I began comparing notes. Turned out, she thought she was going crazy. She would carefully place things on the dresser only to wake up in the morning and find them on the nightstand. While in the basement, she turned when she heard footsteps coming down the steps. There was no one there, but the wooden steps were bending with the weight of something unseen! An overnite guest from Columbia refused to sleep in the bedroom with the unhinging door after just one night. In broken English, he said his dreams "terrified him". One night, I awoke from a deep sleep. Immediately, I sensed something was wrong. I opened my eyes to find and old man bent over me...his face just inches from mine! My whole body went rigid and I screamed...but no sound would come out. My wife heard me making choking sounds and woke up and saw me staring "google-eyed" at the ceiling...the bed was drenched in sweat. It would take almost an hour for me to begin breathing normally. That was the final straw. I asked our parish priest to come over as soon as possible and bless our house. After he did this, our ghost left us entirely alone. Months later, I answered a knock on our front door. It was a lady who said she had heard that our house was haunted. She went to tell me she was a medium and would I mind if she walked through our place. We started in the basement and then toured the first floor. I was surprised when she didn't register anything in the bedroom with the door that came unhinged. If she did, I didn't notice. When we came to the second floor, her walk slowed. When we reached the archway and door that separated the upstairs landing and bedroom, she halted in midstep. Her eyes rolled back in her head and the hair on her arms stood straight out like she was receiving and electric shock! She began throwing her head side-to-side. After she came out of the "trance", here's what she said: "An old couple lived in this house many years. The old woman died leaving the man alone. He stored her things in the attic. Frequently he would come upstairs and sit with her things and grieve for her." What the medium didn't know, the second floor had recently been converted from and attic to a landing and bedroom. The place where she went into the trance was the exact spot where my baby son used to stare when talking to his unseen visitor. Finally, the house was owned by a couple who raised their family there. Unfortunately, no one remembers which one of couple died first. We moved from the house several years later. The family that bought it from us reported nothing unusual about living there. Everything reported here is absolutely true. J. Kelly McKnight

Comments about the web site: When I was a little girl I used to live in a two story house where weird things would go on. I had a round white mirror that hung on the wall infront of my bed, and I used to see different "entities" at night. One night, I got the crap scared out of me. I saw a bunch of people-like beings in the mirror and one of the beings was just a head floating around out of no where. Lights started to flash on and off and then my pinwheel at the base of my bed started to turn in circles.
