Welcome to West Virginia Ghosts

Native Americans believed West Virginia's dark hollows were haunted by evil spirits. Is it surprising then that reports of supernatural encounters and unexplained phenomenon have grown over time? Thousands of sightings, many reputable, have been recorded by folklorists and parapsychologists in West Virginia since the 1960s.

West Virginia Ghosts is dedicated to all the legends within West Virginia and to our ghostly visitors. Feel free to read our collection of ghost stories. We would like to hear your ghostly experiences, if you have encountered a visit from the beyond or know of an encounter, then please send us your story and we will add it to our increasing archive.
