Ghost Encounters

I never believed other people’s ghost stories, until I experienced my own in 1986. I am a 31-year-old man who usually thinks rationally, but I still get the chills when I think of what happened to me and my two friends, Alan and James, that cold winter night. My friend...

I am pagan and I have read a lot about seances. A group of friends pressured me into conducting one, even though I had never held one before. We went to a cemetery in Twin Falls; it was an older cemetery and there is a play area within the...

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...

In 1958 my new husband and I came home to Parkersburg, West Virginia, to visit from his duty station in New Jersey. We were staying at his mother's house off Staunton on a little street named Agnes. The first night we were sleeping in a downstairs bedroom off the...

My family lives in a very old house, 100 years old or maybe a few years less. Back in the day, people called it the Wheeler Mansion because it was the biggest house around. I'm not sure about what happened during its construction, but something happened in this house...

When I was a young girl living on Roger Street in Bluefield, West Virginia my two best friends Debbie and Linda and I were playing outside their apartment in the hallway. They had told me earlier that day while they were eating lunch the kool-aid pitcher lifted off the...

I tell this account of a series of experiences my wife and me had a not-so-nice spirit. We had never planned to tell this experience outside of our circle of close friends, but I guess it is worth sharing. I rented an upstairs apartment of a farmhouse on a mountain-top...

This story took place at a fire station in WV. My great grandfather was a fire fighter for over 20 years. While at the station weird things happened. There would be rooms in the station with only one door and no windows, that you would hear things being moved around in....

Shortly after my retirement as a police officer, I went to work for a public safety training agency. They had a satellite location at Glenville State College, on the third floor of Lewis Bennett Hall. I was the training coordinator, and in addition to assisting with some criminal justice classes,...

I was walking from my house to a friends one Thursday night just after dark, about 8:00 pm. The way I used to go was through the old cemetery on the hill in the West End. As I walked through I heard screaming coming from the Above ground cells....

When I got married, my wife and I purchased a trailer; we put it next door to my parent's house. The master bedroom was at the rear of the trailer. When our son was born, he slept in the room with us, to make it easier for early morning...

Every since we was little our parents told us not to go out of the hollow after dark, because a colored man was hung in the big beach tree for sleeping with a white man's wife back in the (1940's). When we became the ages of 12 and 13 we...
