Ghost Encounters

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,...

I work at Cabel Huntington hospital in Huntington, WV. My encounter happened on 5th Street Hill just after 9 pm. It was raining and I came upon a girl in a white gown with dark hair. I hit my brakes and she just vanished into thin air. Well, I have heard...

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...

I live on an old country road called Grassy Creek and right about 100 yards, further up the main road is Leatherwood Hollow. It has had a bad name because it is full of panthers and there has supposed to been many violent things happen up there. My great...

I have very much enjoyed visiting your web page. The stories related are well written and, for the most part, I think, true. I would like to contribute my family's and my own personal experience of a real life haunting. I swear before God to its truthfulness. Ben Creek, Mingo...

My brother-in-law told me this story. As far as being a true story, I do not know. The only thing I do know is that he stands to it that it really happened. He told the story like this; he and my other brother-in-law were out riding around on...

In January 1996, a massive snowstorm made travel along West Virginia back roads nearly impossible to traverse. At the time, I was employed by the Federal Prison Camp Alderson. With the storm at its most severe, I got off from work one night at midnight. The previous night I had...

The summer of 1998 was the scariest night of our lives. This happening occurred in late June after a Family Reunion. We were 9, we stayed at our Aunt's house in Yukon in McDowell Co. We got back to the house around dark. We went swimming when we got home....

I moved to Yokum's Campground for the summer while I was working as a climbing guide. Yokum sits in the town of Seneca Rocks.The area was a meeting place for Native Americans, as well as a burial ground. In the 1980s the burial grounds were excavated by the Smithsonian and...

It was a summer night around midnight. I had just left work from Air Res on Ritter Drive. I had stopped by for a sandwich at 7-11 in Shady Spring and I was on my way home. Driving past the old antique shop at the Cherry Creek Dip, I...

I had moved back to my grandparents farm near Lost Creek, WV.  The old house had a bedroom upstairs and two bedrooms downstairs. My parents were upstairs, I was staying downstairs. My parents had a cat that I loved with all my heart. He hated me and would hide behind doors...
