King’s Bend, Wetzel County, WV
Let me start out by saying that, like most posts I've read on here, before this experience I was a firm non-believer. There exists a moment in this story that I actually thought, "Holy moly ghosts are REAL!". It was that vivid, that clear, and that undeniable.
This is private...
Protector Of Our House
My wife and I moved to West Virginia 2.5 years ago with our son Jacob. 16 months ago our second child (a daughter) was born. I believe what we have experienced is a protector of either our family or our domicile. The first instance was when my wife was...
Childers Road Barboursville
Several years after we lived in Wayne, we moved into a house on Childers Road. This house felt strange from the time we moved into it. It began with just hearing what sounded like footsteps in the attic, and then one evening we were out back, my son looked...
Visit From My Great-Grandmother
This story starts out when I was about 6 or 7 yrs old. It was in the summer time and a thunderstorm had just passed. It was very strange to me when the furnace kicked on; because, it was the middle of summer. Well, I looked up and I...
Was It A Dream?
One night I woke up to something touching my hair, like it was behind me leaning over to stroke my hair. My bed was up against a wall at that time, so how could someone fit back there?
I looked up to see a long skinny thing in the dark....
Open The Door
Between my grandmother who is from Harpers Ferry WV, and my mother in-law (who passed away a few years ago, we sure do miss her) and my wife's stepfather, I have heard many strange stories.
This one is from my wife's stepfather Fred.
When he was a kid in Berkeley Springs,...
Something Strange At Harpers Ferry
My brother and I are avid reenactors and we live in a town called Frederick, Maryland. Our hobby takes us to many places like Gettysburg, Yorktown, Fredericksburg, but in particular, Harpers Ferry.
I remember an event we were doing about 3 years ago when we portrayed Union soldiers from the...
Belington Ghost
This happened in December of 2007 in Belington, WV when I was seventeen.
My girlfriend and I at the time were sitting in the living room listening to music. It was night but I’m not too sure what time it was... probably around 8.
I happened to look down the hall...
The House On Sammy Street
I was best friends with the three who rented out "The House", as we referred to it. Even though I technically lived in North Tower at Concord, I found myself staying at 137 Sammy Street every weekend, as well as a few weekdays here and there. I had heard...
Unseen Singers In The Woods
Since my mildly autistic 12 year old has no siblings and lacks somewhat in the social graces, I've been, equal parts father and playmate while spending, as you might expect, considerable time in the park. Tomlinson Run State Park, that is. In fact, when his homework-obsessed mother leaves for...
Gumboots
My Aunt and Uncle used to have an old house in Clay County, West Virginia. During the summer, my sister and I would sometimes spend weekends, and even weeks there with them and their four children. Their house was what you could call "cut-off" from everyone. The driveway was...
My Encounter
My friend Brian and I were walking our friend Josh home one night when we decided to take him pass the old basketball court. When we walked down the hill toward it we all felt something pulling us toward the basketball court where it has been reported that you...
