Your True Ghost Stories

January 1997
I was at my grandparents house and my grandmother and I were in the
basement.She told me to go upstairs to get her smokes. I was not scared
to go upstairs alone but I was very scared to go downstairs alone. I
went upstairs and I looked down her long hallway.
I remember turning the
light on before I went downstairs with my grandmother but now the
hallway light was off. I thought that my gran turned the light off so I
went down the hallway. Half way to her room which was at the end of the
hallway I began to feel like someone was behind me. I turned around and
noone was there.
When I got to her room I grabbed the pack of smokes and
started back to the basement. When I was almost there I felt like I had
to turn around. I did and I saw something darker than the shadows coming
toward me. I tried to scream but I could'nt. Before I knew it I was
running down the stairs back to my gran.
I never saw the "darkness"
since.

I live in a rather new set of flats in the city of Shrewsbury in Missouri in
the states. It is near St. Louis. the land was untouched for many years,
since it belonged to the catholic church. it was part of the land that
surrounded the kenrick seminary. the flats I am living in were built about
1975, and are still very nice.
One bright sunny day I was walking to the hall that goes to the bedrooms of
which there are two. i looked into my bedroom and saw a man with golden hair,
blue eyes and a nice smile leaning against the wall. He wore a cream shirt
and kakhi pants.
I wondered how the man had gotten into my bedroom, and who he was. I then
noticed that he was partly into the cabnit that was placed against the wall
where he was leaning. He faded away, and has not been back for me to see, but
he does like to take things. The things that go missing are odd things for a
ghost to take. An address and phone list went missing from offf the wall, and
I looked behind furniture in the room too, an old movie had also dissappeared.
I have told him he is welcome, but to give back the missing items. So far he
has not brought them back.
ah well, ghosts will be ghosts!

I had an incident happen the other night at my husbands aunts house. I
seen a "figure". At first I thought someone was in the room but to find
out there was no one there.
I ask if anyone was there but everyone said
no. They ask me if I had saw something. Yes I said and they laughed and
said she is always here but feel lucky she has only showed her self to a
few. More or less it was laughed off, but I can't this is the second time
I have seen a figure.
I am looking for any info. on why figures/ghosts
show themselves to some and not others. And why they do that. I have
tried other internet places but I get no answers and this is the first one
that I could email too so I thought someone might be able to help.
Thanks,

Subject: Black Dog
I would like to know more about the legend of the Black Dog of Hell(or
from Hell), my mother just saw the story on a television show.
One man
said he saw it walking down the seashore, and it had glowing red eyes,
and shortly after it vanished. Still someone else said it came into
church and killed two people.
They said it was Satan himself. I've
heard of many folktales in England about black dogs and wish hounds and
all. What part of the country is this one from?

Subject: Poltergeist?
I am 15 years old, and I live in Elmhurst iL.
A friend of mine was telling
me about a few strange occurences that have happened to her
in the past fewdays.
She was on the phone, and she went
up to her room. She sat down andrealized that her room was
unbearably cold. it was freezing. she checked
to see if maybe she had put her air conditioning on...but it wasn't.
The last time she had it on was a few days before.
Then she went into her
parents room, right next door to her room, to see if their room was also
cold. It was boiling hot. She decided not to worry about it. Then she
went back into her room, and a stack of books tipped over.
Out of nowhere
they just fell over. Then a bottle of nail polish tipped over. That was
all that really happened. She was telling me about it, and I told her that
it was probably a poltergeist and not to worry about it because it is her
doing it.
She is always home alone when these things happen. I heard that
usually a poltergeist is like a ghost but it works through the mind of a
person, usually a teenager. And most of the time, this teen has a lot on
their mind, and is very stressed out. Which she defineletly is. Am i right?
Do you think it is a Poltergeist? And should my friend have something to be
worrying about?
Please write me back as soon as you can, and tell me what
you think might be going on.

5 years ago in 1993 me and my brother and my mom had been in a terrible car accident.My mother was instantly
killed, my brother sufered from various injuries like a brocken neck,
nerve damage in his arm and etc. Well I walked
out of the car with a fractured clavical. Which was a mirical that me and my brother actually survived because this car
accident was pretty bad.
Well I was in the hospital for 1 day and came home with my dad.
Mean while my brother was
in the hospital for about 6-7 months I was at home with my dad.
Now here's were the weird part comes in: One night I
was getting up in the middle of thr night to get a glass of water and on the way back to my room I was passing my
brother's room to get to mine and I saw a lady bent over my brothers bed almost looking like she was praying, But she
was crying and I stood there for a while just watching but frozen with fear next thing i remember is she stood up and
looked me in the eyes and cryed then she was gone.
Then I started to scream, my dad came running and that was the
end of that.
I'll always remember that lady in white that wept on my brothers
bed.

Subject: could you help me?
Hello,
I wondered if you could help me? I am
convinced that my house has a ghost of some sort, it is not doing any harm
though and I was curious of where could I get information of my local area
particularly where my house is, which is Whitefield, Manchester.
I tried my
local libaries but there was nothing of real content on the area. Could you
advise me on where I could get a detailed description of history as I am
sure this could indicate some reason for these funny goings on.
Yours Hopefully

Subject: Ghost Experience
Hi my name is Olivia and l'm from Perth, Western Australia.
About two
years ago, a few days after easter my grandfather appeared at my
bedside.
I was asleep and l was woken up by the sound of some one draging
their feet on the carpet (my granfather used to walk like that all
the time). As l rolled over to see what it was l saw the pants of my
grandfathers pjamas (he died in them in the hospital). I went numb
and heavy l could not move or scream, it looked as if he was leaning
over me to kiss me.
It freaked me out some much that l cried when l told my mother in the
morning.
My family seems to think he came to me because he thinks l'm the
strong one in the family, he wanted to tell us that he was upset that
we did not go and visit his grave at easter.
pls don't e-mail me back on this address as it not my computer
Subject: Dark rooms
Hi.
I'm from Russia, I'm in Anchorage now soon moving to another city, but
when I was in Finland for four years, my parents used to take me with
them to this one university or something where they had volleyball
practices.
I was about six or seven at that time. There was a dressing
room(locker room) and a shower in that building for the people coming in
and playing whatever sports. But there was another room in the locker
room that was always locked. You could see spider web coming out from
under the door.
I used to lay down on the floor and look under the door,
as I did that I heard voices inside the room, it was dark in there, plus
I could hear plates falling and braking on the floor but it felt like
very far away because I could barrely hear those things.
I remember it
was very windy in the room, I could feel the wind going through under
the door, just this slow cold wind, sometimes it would be faster
sometimes it would quiet down. But it was pretty scary for me, of course
I was about seven years old.
So that's my story, I gotta go now, oh yeah I really like the phantom of
the opera, it's a true story you know. I would really want to visit the
paris opera house sometimes...........wouldn't you?
Subject: My experiences with a ghost.
During my freshmen year in college, I had two friends who decided to move out of the dorms and into a duplex which they rented half of.
One
of the girls was greatly involved in Wicca, and one time I even joined her in one of her cerimonies just to see what went on. Well, every time I
went over to their house I always thought I would catch odd reflections of them in a window, or see them out of the corner of my eye.
However these reflections were almost always of a blond woman and they were both dark brunettes.
I finally asked one of the girls about this
and they told me that she was a 'good' ghost who watched over the house. There was another spirit who was evil, and he would pull mean
pranks on them and the other one would stop by when things got really bad and calmed things down. Well, I thought nothing of it again untill
I moved in with them for the last month of school.
One night I was sitting reading a book for class with one of my roomate's when we heard a
loud screeching noise and then I saw something white flash against the sliding glass doors as if it had hit the glass but the loud 'bump' was
delayed by about 15 seconds. I looked at my friend and we both felt a sharp electric buzz so we ran outside as fast as we could because the
weird screeching noise had continued for this entire time. Once outside we were attached by a bat or some stray bird who flew directly at us
and only missed us by a tiny bit.
My friend and I stayed outside for a while until our other roomate finally came home from work and went
inside the house with us. After that there were many other tiny incidents that we felt were provoked by a mean entity but this was the only
one I really took notice of.
Subject: unexplained voices
I'm from Canada and this experience just took place a few months ago in
my parents house..
Usually weird stuff like this happens to my step-father but this day it
happened to me.
I woke up with the rest of the house at 6 a.m. so that I could get ready
for work. My husband was in the bathroom, my mother was in the living
room and my younger sister was still asleep,my father was already gone
to work by that time.
I was in a pretty crabby mood like I usually am in the morning but I was
in my bedroom at the other end of the house, while everyone else was at
the other end.
Anyways, as I was getting ready for work I heard someone call my name
"Jacq?"
I said "what?" very crossly then they said "come here" and I replied"
Just a second!"
I went stomping to the living and demanded of my mother what she wanted
and she told she didn't want me for anything! I asked," didn't you call
me?". She said," no, maybe it was Der (my husband)", so I went and
pounded on the bathroom door and asked him the same question he told me
the same thing that he didn't call me and it wasn't my younger sister
because she was asleep and her voice isn't that deep.
I thought they were all playing tricks on me and no they all honestly
said that they didn't call me. That freaked me out so I didn't go back
to my room without turning every single light on in the house.
Later that day when I arrived home from work I told my step-father of
what happened and he said that my younger sister just told him because
she was awake at the time (I didn't know this) and she heard it too. I
know she wouldn't do anything like that because she doesn't like the
feeling of being scared either and she said that she was throwing the
cat into every room before her so she could determine if there was
anyone or anything in there.
I deal with Tarot cards and I was wondering if that would have anything
to do with it? But as I reflect on my past experiences all of them have
taken place at my parents house with either my Step-dad or myself
present.
Just let me know of any insight you may have.
Thanks,
jacqueline
Subject: Stange sightings
Hello,
I'm not sure exactly what I believe as far as ghosts and paranormal. I am a
landlord and have a property that, well, my tenants claim they see visions.
I have had 4 different occupancies and 3 out of the four claim to have seen
something. The two current tenants claim to have seen a man in a blue suit.
They believe him to be a gentleman that hung himself in the attic approx.
in 1972, do to marital problems. One of the 3 tenants I suspect was into
the dark side.
I am a christian and believe that when one dies, you go to heaven or hell.
My faith does not allow for any in between.
If you have any links that your aware of on the net or have any info please
email me. I'm curious to what I'm dealing with.

Subject: Chesterfield Ghost
I am actually in Chesterfield, so I don’t know if this will be of
interest to you.
My husband and I moved to chesterfield in June 86 to take up
employment. We moved into a two bedroom terrace in Spital Gardens,
Chesterfield. In 87, when I woke up from my sleep in the night, I saw an
apparition at the foot of our bed, of what appeared to be a monk.
I do not feel that this was just me waking up, half asleep, as I was
very frightened and repeatedly opened and shut my eyes expecting the
figure to disappear, I had wanted to wake my husband but was unable to
move with fear. The figure had attempted to make a comforting gesture,
of reaching his arm to me in an unthreatening manner, but at that time I
just wanted him to go. Then on about the sixth attempt of mentally
trying to persuade him to go, he gradually faded away rather than just
vanishing .
Not being a resident long in this area, I was not aware of any local
history, since there have been various stories of a Monastery , which
supposedly had a tunnel at one point connecting to our garden.
This is a brief outline of the story.

Subject: Hospital Ghosts
I work in a hospital in Leeds England, now a hospital believe it or not
is one of the most haunted places anyone could be on a night. I worked
as a porter and one night whilst i was in the children's outpatient
department i heard a small child's voice crying in pain, the noise got
louder and louder, it lasted for about 12 seconds then silence. You
might be thinking that a child was nearby, the nearest children's ward
is over the other side of the hospital, about half a mile away, and it
was around 2:25am.
Another incident in the same department occured another night. I was
resting around a curtain, (night shifts are physically draining), when i
saw a shadow moving along the otherside of the curtain, it moved to the
edge and stopped. I expected someone to walk around but no-one did. I
rose from my chair and as i went to grab the curtain, the shadow darted
backward, the strange thing is that even though the shadow moved there
was no noise made from the foosteps on the wooden floor.

Subject: strange incident
well i live in texas, dallas to be exact. maybe you can help me figure out
what this green goo is that turned up on my coffe table a while back. my
wife and i were doing a little spring cleaning and we both stopped to
sit on the couch and have a ciggarete.we both sat right in front of the
coffee table and it was normal.
we walked into the kitchen just long
enough to grab some cleaning supplies and when we walked back into the
living room there was green goo on about half of the table. it was
odorless,smooth in texture and you really couldn't feel it when you
touched it.we were shocked.
this isn't the first "strange"thing that has
happend to us.we were alone in the house,no pets,no kids.
i absent mindedly cleaned up the stuff and should have got a sample but
i didn't.does this sound like ectoplasm or what?
please reply if
possible.
