Ghost Encounters

I was born in Huntington, West Virginia and grew up in an old wooden two-story house on Auburn road, located in the Westmoreland district. My family bought that house back in 1928. They had moved there from another house on Auburn road, one that was located less than a...

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...

This happened to my grandmother about 10 years ago. My grandma lives in the east end of Charleston in one of the many "hollers" that are found in West Virginia. A long time ago, probably in the late 50's early 60's, my great grandfather had loaned a cousin of...

One summer, while I was staying at my grandparents' house for the weekend, they were having a pretty good day. They have pretty good health yet some days are better than others. Anyways, I was laying on the couch with nothing to do while my grandpa was outside working...

I use to live in Wayne County WV. I grew up in a holler. At the head of our holler was a cemetery and my friends and I would walk to it a lot. We were there so much that we knew every name on the tombstones and we...

I was around 11 years old at the time of this sighting. My friend and I were sitting in my room listening to our new Walkmans around 5 or 6 PM. We were sitting next to my window and the curtains were drawn, but the window was open with...

Chapmanville East Elementary School is very spooky first of all. It's a very large and exceptionally old brick building and it stinks inside. The school has a lot of character to say the least. I knew a teacher that worked there very shortly. She said that sometimes if she was...

First off my name is fake because no one has ever believed me. I live on Moses Fork and I was driving home one night through Cabwaylingo Forest. Just past Cabin 13 and Sweat Water, I spotted something black hovering, as I got closer it looked like a man but...

To be perfectly honest, most of my life, I didn't believe in ghosts (or other supernatural phenomenon for that matter). I never DENIED their existence but I never acknowledged it either. A vacation in West Virginia, however, changed all of that. I and a female friend, who was a firm...

My name is Stacy and I was sixteen at the time that my friends and I had the Halloween Party in the cemetery of the Hills in West Virginia. I'm not certain but I recall the cemetery's name was Webb. We rode the ridges on four-wheelers and jeeps and found...

Being a Surveyor in my past career, I had come across an area that I wanted to share with my wife. A forest Fire tower and a microwave unit on one of the most remote areas in Southern WV. In surveying the area before, and probably just as true...

I was a young boy about 12 back in the Summer of 70'. I had three best friends, Davies, Harold, and Frank. It was on Saturday and my friends and I use to sneak into my Uncle Leon's backyard to watch the neighborhood Chicken fight. This particular night at Mingo...
