GHOST STORIES

[rubywillow]

I thought maybe we could start our Halloween festivities with some good 'ole ghost stories. Your favs, ones you remember from your childhood or something your've even experienced. Here's something that happened to me.
Our house was built around 1830. It was abandoned when we bought it, and we were prepping it to move it to its present location. I was shoveling fallen plaster in the main hall when, just over my shoulder, a man's voice said "Stop that!" Assuming it was my husband, who had just given me the job to do, I turned to see only an empty hall. After searching a minute or two, I found Hubs on the roof. When I told him what had happened, he said, "Aw, just ignore 'em. Somebody talked to me all day yesterday!"

Since living in the house, I've heard footsteps on the stairs, when I'm home alone. I've been tapped on the shoulder, and doors pushed against me, had a feeling of a presence, and the dog's hair will stand up, then she starts to bark at an empty(?) corner.

O.K. Your turn!!!! :muahaha:

GHOST STORIES

Once, hubby and I were driving back from my parent's house - they live out in the stix so we have to travel down some dark country lanes. I turned a corner and it appeared that a boy in rags stepped into the road. I slammed on hard, then realised there was nothing. We both saw it and it freaked us both out.

GHOST STORIES

I used to visit a old share house were my partener and her brother lived one morning i asked him how has he been sleeping since moving in he said not well I asked whats up he said its cold and as he drifts off he feels a pressure on his feet like some one is sitting down on the end of the bed . This guy is a straight up computer programmer life to him is explained in un emotional terms. He finally moved out asked him why he said i got sick of constantly waking up to this fedaration woman sitting on the end of the bed just looking at me !!!!!!!!!!! I said ARE you serious he blankly said yes.
Creep me out the next share person that came in said the exact same thing. I went to the local shire and did some searchin records showed that it was a boarding house with a colourful history color being BLACK and the owners wife well very sad this place had history. But once in the middle of the night I too felt the pressure on the end of the bed I was only sleeping there every second day as I was just courting my sweet heart but shit!!!! one early morning I swear I woke up feeling this pressure on my feet and kicked furiously and felt like some one got up and walked away. I insisted all courting be done in my place from there on!!!!! completely freaked me out

GHOST STORIES

One night I was sleeping downstairs because of rib fractures and pneumonia. Hubs told me next day he heard me come up the stairs in the night, come across bedroom, get in bed and throw arm across him. He thought I was feeling better, then realized arm was getting lighter and lighter over him. He turned over to look, and bed was empty. I was still asleep downstairs. He just went back to bed!

GHOST STORIES

Our cabin is in the heart of the traditional Cherokee lands. There are so many stories of ghosts in the area. One is about a house down the road from us. Many years ago, two men were walking past the house when a woman came screaming towards them, chased by her husband with an axe. The 2 men were unarmed and were chased away by the man, who was raging mad. By the time they got back with help, he had killed his wife, then hanged himself. Ever since then, people walking past the house in the late evening claim to hear screams, and some have even seen the woman running down the hill.

GHOST STORIES

When i was about 14 i had just got out the bath..I had left the radio on in my bedroom quite loud so i could listen to music in the bath...Anyway i got out wrapped a towel round me and went to get dried and changed in my bedroom..I leant down to turn the radio back down...There was loud static for a second and the radio said my name...More loud static for a second and the music came back on...
I just stood up and walked down stairs and sat in the livingroom..14...dripping wet with a towel wrapped round me...My mum and dad staring at me..

The spooky bit is i had forgot about this for years...Until my wife and her sister told me when they were about 14 they were arguing over the radio in their bedroom...When the radio said my wifes name...They screamed and ran downstairs...

I have no clue what that means...Its just weird..

GHOST STORIES

My daughters use to tell me there was a spirit in our house. OK, whatever, didn't believe them. They grew up, moved out and when they did, our friend started bugging me. Opening cupboard doors, moving things right in front of me. I came home from work one night and started cooking something and there he was standing in the doorway. I said out loud " i don't feel good. Leave me alone tonight." He was gone and I heard footstep going up stairs. Know one here but me.

Also had 2 little girl spirits that would play hide and seek in the bedroom when I was trying to sleep. I could here them calling to each other, " find me" There names were Tammy and Sara. They would even whistle for my dogs which drove them nuts.

One weekend both daughters came home for a visit and woke up to the little girls standing there watching them. They described them as around 6 and 8 years old and light blond hair.

That was enough for me, I lit a white candle and told them they need to go to the light. They weren't welcome here.

That was a few years ago and haven't seen or heard from the 3 of them again. Not just a Halloween story. Gods honest truth.

GHOST STORIES

Right-O, Jules. I don't try to convince anyone about my house. It is what it is. When my Sis and I were teens, we had a Ouija board. Took to all the parties, and that little sucker flew around the board when we asked questions. Then one night,she got mad at it and cursed it. Pointer turned and flew into her chest. Right after that 'The Exorcist' came out, and I got rid of the board!
