With winter still dragging on, it’s easy to get wrapped up in the darkness, the cold, and the sad, listless feeling of being pulled along through the year. Everything seems on edge; the trees are creaking with bare branches, and the ice echoes when it snaps in the night.  A perfect setup for ghost stories, […]

They say seeing is believing, but what if you saw it and heard it and lived it but you still can’t believe it? It’s so hard to accept paranormal experiences as real, but when it happens to you, what else can you do but believe it as real? Sometimes it’s so hard to believe what […]

As we move into the darkest parts of the year, I’m reminded of the old traditions in certain parts of the world, where people would tell ghost stories over the holiday season. It’s cold, it’s dark, and the world seems to be leaning just a little more toward that thin, liminal space between our world […]

Author Wendy Wunder wrote, “The magic thing about home is that it feels good to leave, and it feels even better to come back.” Ever wonder why spirits choose to return or never leave a location? It might be a familiar place in an unfamiliar dimension. It might be the safety they always felt during […]

With the passing of Halloween, the spooky season has officially come to a close. This doesn’t mean that we’re anywhere near finished with ghost stories though; on the contrary, I think November has just as strong of a case as October for being a time for scary stories told after dark. The sun makes rarer […]

Our lives are filled with little routines that we constantly go through day in and day out to keep ourselves organized, put together, and sane. Sometimes something truly unexplainable happens and suddenly our eyes are opened to the possibility that our ordinary lives aren’t what it may seem. Okay, ready to get spooked? Thank you […]

Nothing is as terrifying as the sounds we hear in the dark. The slow creak of a door opening late at night… or a whisper in a room when you thought you were alone… or a distant scream in the wind. One noise at the wrong time or place can scare us for days. Each […]

We all gravitate to horror stories at this time of year. It’s getting darker sooner, and there’s a chill in the air that can’t be ignored anymore.

Many things can be considered paranormal other than those involving spirits. The true meaning of paranormal is any event that can’t be scientifically proven or occurs beyond the scope of scientific understanding. From sounds of footsteps in long abandoned woods to seemingly benign childhood restaurant terrors, these stories fall beyond the scope of normal understanding […]

British author Roald Dahl aptly pointed out that “The witching hour… was a special moment in the middle of the night when every child and every grown-up was in a deep deep sleep, and all the dark things came out from hiding and had the world all to themselves.” Many paranormal experiences happen during the […]

As a general rule, when we think about being watched by supernatural entities, or spirits from beyond, it’s terrifying, right? Who wants to be watched, especially when you thought you were alone? Well, maybe some of today’s stories will have you rethinking that. While nevertheless terrifying to find yourself not as alone as you might […]

Many spiritual encounters involve watching a ghostly occurrence happen around you like objects moving or disembodied sounds. We’re most afraid of the encounters happening to us such as being touched or personally talked to or targeted. From unknown entities beckoning someone to join them, to an apparition begging to have her name known, these stories […]
