ok so this is wild and still creeps me out. back in 2015, my friend lived in this old, super eerie house with her mom. she always told me how unsafe it felt, like something was off about the place.

one night, she went to bed early, and out of nowhere, she woke up terrified. she said it felt like someone was sitting on her chest, choking her, and she couldn’t move. she ran crying to her mom, totally freaked out.

a few days later, she was messing around with her mom’s phone, taking random pics (she was still little and thought it was fun), and she accidentally snapped a photo of their kitchen. when she looked at it, there was this weird shadowy silhouette in the corner. she showed me the picture, and it was honestly terrifying.

her mom was so scared she went to a psychic (idk what it’s actually called, but someone who deals with paranormal stuff). the psychic told her to leave some food on top of the wardrobe where the silhouette was seen. so they put a biscuit there before bed, and when they woke up, the biscuit was half-eaten. i’m not even kidding.

then the psychic said she could sense that some kids had been murdered near or in the house, and their bones were buried somewhere nearby. my friend’s mom didn’t want to dig or even look into it—they just packed their stuff and left as fast as they could.

but here’s the craziest part: after they moved out, the house literally caught on fire and half of it burned down. like, what even was that?? i still think about it and wonder if it was spirits, some kind of curse, or just bad energy. has anyone experienced something similar?? i’m so curious what you all think.

So for a little bit of context I have been working for a pizza chain in a little city called "Lismore" in Australia (It's called a city, but it functions and looks more like a large town) for around two years as a delivery driver. I have seen some things that you would generally expect, drunken idiots, generally sus people, Someone even robbed me for the pizzas once. But I have had two paranormal encounters while on the job.

The first one happened a few months after I started, I was delivering an order to a part of the town that was further out, a few houses dotted here and there. I was driving along this road, each side there was grass and reeds about as tall as the car, which was an old 2004 Toyota Corolla, which is around 1.5m tall (Just under 5ft). As I was driving down this road this thing sprinted across the road on all fours, titled its head at me while it ran and ran on through to the other side. The only way I can describe it was that it had a dog head which looked like a part of its jaw was missing and I could see its teeth, it did look like it had dog teeth, I couldn't really see the other half of it, but whatever it was, didn't have fur or anything like that. It also did not have a tail, it's skin was looked like it belonged to a human, it had what I presumed to to be cuts and dirt marks around its neck, but it did move too fast to see the rest of its body. When the headlights hit it, its eyes were this creamy white colour. It came to around just at the start of the windscreen when looking at it, which would've made it around 80 or so cm (around 2' 7''). The way it ran was strange as well, almost like it was galloping, I guess. It lifted its back feet up to its front and sprung itself forward with its upper body. I did some research (I'm very sceptical to when it comes to paranormal stuff) into the area I live in and there aren't too many paranormal encounters or alleged cryptids, and nothing matched its descriptions, I also asked of my friends who was Indigenous and they couldn't think of any legends that matched what I had described (granted indigenous populations are very sparce in Australia and it is hard to find someone who is traditionally from the area you live in, particularly in my region). If anyone has any possible ideas on this event I would love to know.

The encounter happened around two or so months after the previous one. I was delivering a pizza to the more suburban part of the city, this street the I was on pretty much if you looked up one direction you would be facing a soccer field if you looked the other you would be facing this graveyard. I finished delivering this order and I get this sudden intense feeling like I am being watched so I pretty much sprint back to the car and hop inside, locking the doors behind me. I look behind me (Which would've been facing the cemetery) and there is nothing. I start up the car and go to re-adjust the rear view mirror because I accidently bumped it with one of those insulated food cells, when I got into the car. I looked in the rear view mirror and standing behind me around 2m or so (6' 7'') was this tall dark figure. I sped off and did not look back.

I also had another experience while driving in the area but this one happened when I was off the job. I was driving back home from a town close by called Ballina. This road has some areas which are reasonably wooded, like you can still see what is out there, its just that there are still a few trees. I was at one of these areas when suddenly out of nowhere this woman in this really long white dress walked out onto the road and stopped in front of me. I slammed on my breaks, I knew I was going to miss her as she was still around 10m or so in front of me and I was already going fairly slow because it was a wet road. However before I fully stopped she just vanished, she was gone, nothing was left behind. It was like someone was editing a video and just cut her out.

If anyone has any ideas about these three encounters (Especially the first one) I would love to know.

Here is more of the original footage of what we believe to be sasquatch surrounding my colleague, there is captured eyeshine, blinking, vocalizations and the infamous rock throw. He was up north in Michigan unloading his gear at night. He was staying up at his family Cabin for Bow Hunting. This was all recorded on the same night on a New iphone. https://youtu.be/gCT9SLQEkg4

I moved into an old house in the middle of nowhere a few years ago and I've had strange encounters since. My first encounter with this "creature" had been in the woods surrounding my house. I had been roaming around and exploring as I had loved doing then and I'd been recently deep into the woods. I heard something near me which had seemed to be for a call for help before being chased by something on all fours. There had been many other small experiences throughout the couple of years until my most recent encounter. This had happened one night in the safety of my house. I had a massive feeling of dread and what felt like a just a pit in my stomach. I had looked out my window (somewhat looks into the woods) and had saw what looked like a pale creature with pitch black eyes, the skin looked too tight, and it had 5 fingers which had all been too long and seemed pointy, the most terrifying part though, was that it was smiling at me. I guess I wanted to get the story off my chest, but also would like some opinions on what it could've been.

Hey all, tonight a buddy and I went exploring a place we've previously been. But upon arrival, both my friend and I felt a looking sense that was not previously present. We felt instinctively more on edge and aware of our surroundings. Upon making it to the factory, we pulled out our radio to keep an eye on security and listened. Upon listening we heard what sounded to be an alarm system, to be sure we ventured down near towards the sound, upon making it to the front entry, we found what looked to be a mangled raggedy Anne doll. Unsettling? Yes. Frightening? Not quite. Upon feeling relatively secure, we then ventured into a building, once we entered we felt a sense of heaviness and dread. Upon walking further we found used needles that looked as if they had been used very recently. When venturing further, lled down a staircase - once at the base I was suddenly startled by what sounded to be a charging sound towards me. Worried for my friend I called to him to see there was no one but him around me. Once we were both at the bottom, I noticed to my left what appeared to be a memorial (picture attached in comments), the note made mention of someone, a kid not too much younger than us that had been dismembered and whose entire body had yet to be found. A scary five weeks prior to our visit tonight. With that being said, the note looks, off? Strangely composed, a trap maybe. The more I look at the picture trying to figure it out, the more dreadful and near tears I feel. At a loss, we're looking for any additional possible explanations. memorial that was found

TLDR; went urbexing, upon entry looking for alarm systems, we found an old raggedy Anne doll held by its neck. Moving in the the building, we saw needles, I heard a charging sound that seemed to come from no where and we found a memorial for someone who was seemingly killed and disfigured. But the memorial seems, odd?

Im super super afraid of anything paranormal.ive never experienced anything aside from my delusions. My dog died on november 14th. The other day i was trying to record her last days that were still saved in the security camera system. Late. I dont know. 1 am, 3 am, and i heard these loud scratching sounds from the yard, followed by another odd sound similar to scratching but different. I went back to my room upstairs quickly. My dog spent a lot of time on the yard so i thought ehh maybe its her?

Now it was like 4 am and im in my room. I heard also some form of scratching now outside the room. Im terrified. My dog didnt come upstairs often because she didnt like to get baths. Im scared its something else, what if something else came here now that my dog is gone? I have other dog. But i didnt hear any of her steps so i know it wasnt her.

Hello, I am using a translator because my English is not very good so I apologize for any bad English. The other night I was driving through Culiacán around 9 and saw a disturbing figure crawling along the road. It looked like a woman with long straight hair but it didn't look human. It had no legs and had large hands that looked like they had claws and had a very thin neck. I couldn't see much of her face because it was dark but she seemed pale. I don't know if this was real or if it was just my imagination playing tricks on me, but it was still very creepy.

I don't know who to talk to or where to ask for help, so I'm sharing my strange personal experience here, translated by AI.

I'm sharing this knowing it might not be "permitted" by what I call "the thing" or the "mysterious force." I've experienced consequences when going against its will. If this post disappears, you'll know why.

Since elementary school, I've noticed patterns in my luck. I could predict when I'd get good grades(during the "designated good grades"semesters, minimal effort would yield high scores. But in semesters marked for poor performance, no amount of effort would improve my grades) or when my dad would lose his temper. Back then, I used to picturing someone sitting at a control panel, flipping a "luck switch" repeatedly that affected my childhood life.

I often find myself shouting into thin air furiously, demanding answers: "What do you want? I'm not your puppet! When will you leave me alone?" It feels like my entire life is a script written by this force, and I'm just an actor with no real control. When I do things it "permits," everything goes smoothly. But when I go against its will, I face obstacles and prepare to face punishment to prevent me from doing it again.

Here's a recent example: Last year, I had a severe cold and went to the clinic. Everything was fine until exactly my turn to see the doctor - suddenly, the computers lost power despite that level still having electricity. So I had to wait a bit longer. This wasn't an isolated incident; similar "technical issues" have happened multiple times when I've tried to see doctors.I can see that it doesn’t like me seeing doctors. Another time was the print machine broke down. Once is bad luck, but a series of coincidences? That’s possibility multiplying, That's deliberate.

The hospital incidents are just one small part of this. If I were to create a Venn diagram of all the strange "coincidences" and manipulations I've experienced, it would be incredibly complex.

I guess The hospital incident is a still-going thread, there are so much to share.

As a child in elementary and junior high school, I simply observed and followed these patterns. Later, I tried to actively manipulate them to achieve desired outcomes, though it remained challenging.

(Not sure if anyone will believe this, but I needed to share.)

Edit: Might have to delete this if "it" doesn't approve. We'll see.

*Warning* this post mentions death and self harm. please read at your own discretion.

I'm 22m and have experienced a variety of "crazy coincidences" throughout my life, but this has got to be the weirdest.

On Tuesday, I was doing homework and happened upon the song "mercy street" by peter gabriel. the song is quite melancholy, and it made me unusually sad. Particularly, how it was based on the poems of Anne Sexton, an american mental patient who wrote as a form of therapy. She had repeatedly tried to end her own life, until she eventually succeeded, which is quite grim. I listen to a variety of music, and usually I don't get very emotional over it. However, when I went to bed, the sadness had compounded, to the point where I was crying uncontrollably and could not stop. This went on constantly for about 1 hour. At the time, I was just thinking about my family and how much our lives had changed for worse, especially during COVID. Eventually I fell asleep, and the next morning, awoke feeling on the right side of bed as though nothing had happened.

Fast forward to Thursday, news got around that a student at my school had been killed in a car accident. He was simply biking down the street, when a reckless driver lost control of his car. He crashed the car, and ended up running into the student. This student ended up being the younger brother of a girl I had dated two years ago. I also happened to have seen him the day before he was killed.

I cant help but feel irked. I never feel grief like that, let alone out of the blue. And for it to be two days before someone I knew getting so horribly killed.

I use to drive a semi.ober the road. I traveled coast to coast regularly. I was on my way to massa from Washington and stopped for something to drink in Montana at a a road ranger/pilot. It was small in size compared to most out there.

I had parked walked in and went to the drink cooler and lost track of what I was looking for as there was too much to choose from. As I was standing there a old man, tall but large with what looked like an empty saggy suit case walked in and right up to me to ask for a ride to the air port, He was heading to Gary Indiana! Right down 80/90 like I was heading. He had. A 50/50 chance. Told me he was a trucker and had to get home. I told him I was a driver my self and this was the middle of nowhere. His reply was odd, he seemed like that shouldn't have been a problem I could give him a ride. Told me I was sheading east anyway. He has glasses kind of hunched over. I remember feeling fear and that had to leave. I went up to pay and he never came around the corner. I only saw a glimpse of him as I left out the door; like an odd shiver of light in the glass. Mind you the glass was reflecting the mountains, which for my self is always an amazing site. I grew up in New England. Trees are good!

I was alone at my home during the afternoon. I was chilling on my sofa scrolling through reels and then I heard a banging sound in one my bedrooms. I went there and saw a black apparition about 6 feet tall . It has no eyes no head and no body just a black apparition with a well defined structure. It was a few centimetres away from me. When I shouted at it it just disappeared. Right then I hear the bell ringing and on the security monitor I see the same black apparition... I really don't know what to do because at night for the past days I constantly hear those banging sounds because I usually work late at night and something growling all across my house. Pls anyone help

Last night, my wife and I went on our usual walk with our dogs in the city of Zagreb, Croatia. About 500 meters from our house, there is a small grove and a gravel path we walk along. Beside the gravel path runs a stream, and there we occasionally see young deer or foxes, rarely squirrels, and very rarely a stag or a wild rabbit.

So, last night, we were walking along this path when, about 50 steps ahead of us, we saw an "animal" that was completely black and about the size of a slightly larger dog, like a Labrador. Normally, when our dogs see or scent another dog, they run ahead to greet it, wagging their tails happily (we have two poodles). But this time, both dogs froze as if rooted to the spot, with their tails down, and one of them let out a low growl.

The black animal we noticed turned its head toward us, clearly saw us, and then ran across the gravel path to the fence of a nearby yard. At that moment, it dissolved into the air, leaving behind a black mist that lingered for only two or three seconds where the animal had been. There was no trace or sound of it after that.

When we saw this, my wife and I immediately turned on our heels and started walking back. We hadn't gone more than 100 meters when another strange thing happened. We were standing under a streetlight, watching our dogs sniff at something in the grass, when suddenly the entire grove plunged into complete darkness. It was as if something enormous was standing between us and the grove. This lasted for about 3-4 seconds before the grove was lit normally again. The entire time, we were standing under the streetlight, which remained on and working normally.

Honestly, we've never experienced anything like this before. Does anyone have any idea what we might have seen?

Not sure what to make of this

For some context, I lived in a old house, that I assume my great grandmother and many other people had died in as the house goes back to the 1940s

Me and my friend would go out at night because we liked the feeling of fear but this time it was different, we went outside and around the side of the house over a driveway sized gate (length wise) it was stuck so we had to hop it. it was normal for a bit we didn’t ever go past the driveway cuz at the end of it there was a garden, everything around it was dead but this one tree had a small fairy sized noose hanging from it. And it was leafless, but it wasn’t rotten, it had strong bark and branches (it was summer)

But we ended up seeing a figure in the back behind the tree, it was grey and blurry but we both saw it and were able to explain what the other was seeing.. we weren’t sleep deprived in any way, we saw it get closer and it stopping at the tree, we saw another, a black figure though , I don’t mean ethnicity like fully black, we believe that the white one was my grandfather and the black one was his dad cuz we explained each others relatives spot on without ever seeing them. Example I explained his dad perfectly and he was able to explain my grandfather. Something began to feel off as they got closer then we saw what I assume was a fox or something run across the path between us already on edge we booked it out of there, we haven’t seen much like it since, atleast not in that spot, even at night, what was it? Anyone know? (I sadly don’t have any photos as this was around 2022 and i moved since then

Now, I’d like to point out that I am not religious. However, through experiences like this I have become very open minded spiritually.

My wife and I, had been trying for a baby for 3+ years, was seeing specialist’s about our options and was really stressed about it all to the point it was putting a huge strain on our relationship and my wife’s mental health. We went on a trip to Mexico to relax, she wasn’t feeling too well one of the days where we had been in the heat for too long so she decided to stay at the hotel but I went on an excursion to a Mayan village.

During this excursion the group I was with had the opportunity to experience a spiritual ritual, I joined the ceremony and it was an incredible experience. During which you’re cleansed and you put forward all of your negative emotions and put your energy into positivity, you speak these things into existence that you would like to achieve, desire and hope for. Kind of like a prayer. Cold water is poured over your head to signify the dismissal of the negative energy.

Fast forward to around Christmas time and we found out that my wife was pregnant, we were ecstatic that it was finally happened. She had a tough pregnancy (HG & diabetes) but our baby boy was born.. on the exact day a year later that I went to the Mayan village, met the Shaman and took part in the ceremony. The thing I had wished for so desperately when I was taking part in the ceremony was that me and my wife could have a baby.

This is one of the events in my life that has really made me question whether I am mad or whether there truly is a higher power at work.

Coincidence or?

My grandma and my great uncle (grandma's brother) were each other's only siblings. They were 3 years apart in age and very close all their life.

My grandma died on Nov 21st back in 2017. Soon after, my uncle began showing signs of dementia and has been declining ever since. He passed 7 years to the day, almost to the hour, as my grandma.

This could just be me wishing for meaning in my grief, but I think it's more than a coincidence. I felt like my grandma was "around" during my last visit with my great uncle.

I’m looking for any insight if things are related or if I’m just thinking too hard.

Recently, I found a large antique trunk in the lobby of my apartment building. (It’s pretty common for people to leave stuff they don’t want/don’t know what to do with) I thought the thing was super cool and brought it into my apartment. I checked out the lock and it appears someone has picked at it and broken it but has rendered it inoperable. I put it in my bedroom for the time being.

The trunk has a weird air about it I guess but I’ve always collected odd things and have been wary about connections or ties with the previous owners, it seemed alright. I don’t get a bad feeling.

For the last few days, I haven’t been able to sleep well, feeling irritable, and just generally bad. I usually get pretty sad this time of year but i’m just curious. I need to get the chest open. It doesn’t sound like there’s anything inside when I was moving it so I’m not that concerned. I don’t know.. What do you guys think?

I dabble in spiritual stuff but am in no way a seasoned wench. I really like the trunk though. I should cleanse it and my space as it’s due for sure.

Thanks for reading

A year ago, I woke up from a dream where someone was singing, "someone, somewhere, is watching you.(at this point, they were whispering) At least, I do." Then I remember walking up. That voice was singing in the real world. I'm a light sleeper, so I can hear loudish sounds In the ~1 hour before I wake up. It was 4:00 and no one was awake. I still have no idea what it was.

One of the weirder experiences I have had happened many years ago, while I was a student at the university in Oslo, the capital of Norway. Most probably it happened n 2008 or 2009. I was friends with a fellow student at the time, we used to meet frequently, both at the university and back at the dormitories were we lived. We also went to the same fencing club together. One summer we used to meet a lot at the top of the tall dormitory building where he lived, which was located in Sogn student town. The building had a lot of floors, I seem to remember it had 10, so it was taller than most of the other dormitory houses sprawled around it. My friend lived in the top floor. There was a quite small balcony at one end of the top floor, where it was possible to get some fresh air. The floor itself was quite deserted the times I were there, I rarely saw anyone else, and we had the balcony for ourselves. We used to grill out there, drink wine and smoke a hookah he had, and in general had a great time together.

One late evening I remember we got back into the shared student kitchen after having been sitting out on the balcony for quite some time. It was pitch black outside. At one end of the kitchen, there was a row of large windows, looking out in the dark night. I believe we may have been talking about mysterious topics, but I am not sure. We sat at a kitchen table by the row of windows, all alone, facing each other across the table. Outside the window, and fastened above it, there was hanging a power cable to the ground far below. Suddenly, I noticed in the corner of my eye that there was a dark figure hanging below the cable, crawling up it. My friend noticed it too, staring in fear and being so frightened that he fell of his chair. I instinctively pushed away from the window myself in the same instant. The ‘vision’ lasted only a second or two. We both talked about it, and found out that we had seen the same figure crawling up the cable. If anyone of you have seen the movie «Aliens», the sequel to the horror classic «Alien», you might remember a scene where the characters are hiding in a kind of control room at the space colony. They are very anxious, as the electronic detectors indicate many aliens are closing in on them, but they cannot understand how. Then one of them opens one of the ceiling plates above them and takes a look inside. He sees the aliens hanging upside down and crawling forward inside this narrow space. The crawling movement of the figure I saw, was exactly the same. At the time, I dismissed it as a shared illusion or hallucination. We were surely scared, but I left the place soon afterwards. I do remember me and my friend talking about the experience later, several times, but I did not attach any importance to it. It was merely a curiosity.

However, many years later (in 2021 or 2022), I shared the experience with another friend. And he immediately said: «Check if somebody has fell from the building». The thought had never entered my mind, but I promptly searched in Google for this. And, lo and behold, it came up right away. Several news articles came up, describing how one student had fell out of a building at Sogn student town and died. It happened during a party. The police had researched it, but found no evidence of anything criminal. This occurred in 2006, a few years prior. I immediately contacted the old student friend whom I had seen the figure with, sharing the news articles, and asking about his opinion. And he said he knew of the case. It was a foreign exchange student from Russia who had fallen out of the same building he had lived in. My friend said he had fallen out from the floor below where we sat, if he remembered correctly. There had actually been rumours for a long time afterwards about sightings of his ghost in the area.

So what I originally had regarded as just a trick of the mind, became all these years later something much more eerie. Was it really a ghost? I don't know, and I never will. I certainly had never heard about the death of the student at the time the experience occurred, so it cannot just be my mind imagining things based on my expectations of something paranormal occurring. If anyone has experienced something similar, please share. This experience has at least led me to consider other peoples weird experiences with an open mind.

Heard about this subreddit while doom scrolling creppy videos so figured I'd share my main experience with spooky things.

When I was growing up and still young enough to go to my parents room when I was scared in the middle of the night I would sometimes wake up at who knows what time feeling dread and just wanting to go to my parents room to feel safe.

to give a bit of an image of how the rooms are set up the hallway is a bit of an L shape, my room being at the end of the smaller side with my parents being at the end of the longer one with a few rooms off to the side. As I would leave my room, turning around the corner and get half way down the hallway on the long part Id always feel the need to look behind me and when I would Id see this long human like figure that almost went to the ceiling made out of see through static, kinda like the stuff ya see when you rub your eyes too hard but still kinda see through. It'd be slowly coming closer to me, not physically making any movements, just slowly getting closer and closer and when I'd see it I would just be hella scared and all I knew was 'that thing isnt good, dont let it near me' so Id book it the rest of the way to my parents room and turning around it'd be gone.

The weird thing is that if it was a one time thing i could just think "ahhh, it was just my kid brain being goofy" or something. But I remember it happening time after time. Not back to back days, but definitely happened a few times and was the same exact situation each time.

Its kinda unfortunate that this is like the main thing I can remember from my childhood with my memory being crap. But does make for a pretty cool story for when me and someone talk about paranormal stuff. Though am curious on what other people think it is.

This happened just a few nights ago. I waited a few more nights before I decided to post to see if this was some reoccurring, explainable thing. It hasn't happened since so I feel it's appropriate to post.

My fiancé and I were going to bed around 10 or 11PM. Our bedroom is in the basement and our room mate lives upstairs. His schedule is the opposite of ours, so we have become accustomed to him knocking on our door later in the night if he needs anything.

Fiancé and I were having our final conversation before drifting off and we hear a familiar knock at the door. "Come in," I say because we're all pretty close and he knows he's welcome. No one steps through the door and I say again, "come in!" Still nothing so we call his name and, when he doesn't come in the door, I get up and open it. There was no one there.

"Huh," I sat and we joke briefly about how it's "the ghost" (long story short, we've had some other weird experiences, as people often do with an old house, but nothing as weird as what happened this night) and go to bed.

Fiancé falls asleep and I start to drift off. As I'm falling asleep, another knock. This doesn't wake fiance up so I don't say anything and instead get up and decide to investigate the basement a little. Maybe the cat is being a brat, or something is settling. I note that the knocking sounded similar in tempo to the first time it happened so I wondered if it was some pipes in the walls adjusting to the winter temperatures. I figure, yeah it must be that, but I couldn't help the feeling that the noise was very obviously knocking against our door. We are very used to the sound as our our roommate very often approaches us that way. I also know what creaking pipes sound like and this was not that, nor had the pipes ever adjusted that way in previous winters.

Well, whatever. It's annoying but no big deal. I go back to bed and actually fall asleep this time. About 30 minutes later, the knocking starts again. *Knock-knock-knock,* it could be something settling in the house but it so obviously sounds like knuckles on the wood of our door. The pattern, the tempo, and the hollow sound of our door. And it IS happening at our door. It's not in the walls or the ceiling. We have our laundry room a room away from our bedroom but our door is so thick that we NEVER hear anything happening out there. It is decidedly weird but I'm tired and have to work in the morning so I try my best to ignore it.

EVERY 30 minutes to an hour, the knocking comes back and with each occurrence, the knock pattern changes. Deliberate *knock-knocks,* fast *knockknockknockknockknocks," there was even a *shave-and-a-haircut.* Each time I'm trying to ignore it and fall back asleep, only to be jostled awake again.

I had lost track time but I assume it was early morning when I was SHOT awake by a knock followed by a male voice saying, "Hey!"

Okay, so this HAD to have been our roommate. I got up and once again opened to door to find no one. Well, maybe he was messing with us. He has a weird sense of humor. I begrudgingly put on some clothes to go walk around upstairs and find him. Turns out, he's still at work. The house is pitch black and I'm starting to freak out. I go to the front door and see if someone was knocking there and there's no one. Of course if there was someone trying to get in all night, the dog would have been freaking the fuck out, but I really had no other explanation.

So, I make myself go back to bed. Maybe the pipes are not only shifting to sound like knocking on wood, but also creaking to sound like a man calling out. The night goes on and, though the knocking continues, I finally get used to it and actually get a few hours sleep...

Until around 7AM when my fiancé and I LEAP out of bed to another obvious "Hey!" From outside the room. One last time, I open the door to find no one. I confirm with her that yes, she woke up because of the "hey" and I explain to her that I've been dealing with the knocking all night.

Roommate doesn't come home until later in the day and I ask him if he tried to talk to us the previous night. He confirms that never came home and stayed at a friend's house. I tell him what happened and he's as stumped as we are.

Like I said at the top, we waited the following nights to see if there would be any more weird house sounds and, even as things have warmed up and cooled down again, there have been no more weird noises to suggest pipes or other old house sounds.

In general, we're fans of paranormal activity stuff but I always err on skepticism. This was probably the weirdest things to happen to us at this house and I still don't know what it could have been if not some genuine high strangeness.

I ain't crazy I ain't trippin I know what I seen I ain't had any good luck or any bad but I seen one magical or just weird shit who knows but they are definitely real

Okay so, this happened like 3 years ago, but it’s so strange and has been bugging me since. Okay so me and my family were on a road trip to the coast. We decided to stay at a nice chain hotel. Everything is normal for the day, but at night, I had trouble sleeping. I stayed up, and then I had the urge to look at the mirror. When I did so, I saw a tall woman moving her head from side to side. This made me scared, so I stayed up, eyes fixated on it.. Then, I looked to the corner and saw a shadow figure with a hat, it looked like a fedora. I stayed up about midnight, so scared I couldn’t move for the most part, but I could move my head. I was so tired, I was terrified but I fell asleep anyway, and had a dream I was staying in the hotel with a friend who had shoulder length blonde hair with pink dyed ends. The dream ended with her and her mom pulled into the mirror. Wake up at EXACTLY 3:33 am, because my leg was being pulled. I wake up, and I’m mostly on my bed besides my right leg, which was dangling off. The figure is hovering above me, and it was hard to decipher and had a deep scratchy(ish) voice, but said something along the lines of “don’t break it”. I tell my sister about it, and she said she saw the figure,but fell asleep and nothing happened. The weirdest part is when we have mirrors on our closets. My sister’s was broken. This sounds ridiculous, I know, but this genuinely scares me and I wanna know if it was sleep paralysis with a coincidence or something else.

So when I was a kid, I don’t know what year it was but I was really into scooby doo so that phase was probably around 2009-2010, I visited my aunt and her kids I believe either that or some family that wasn’t very close to us. Either way we drove there and spent a few days hanging out. I remember they made me a scooby doo bed and had a small chest of scooby doo toys and stuffed animals. I was watching an old episode I think of the super Mario super show that had an extra episode of the old show “Dino squad”. I had fallen asleep and I woke up wanting to get a cup of milk. I remember I had recently learned how to do it by myself so I was confident I didn’t need anyone. I remember walking through the hallway which at night felt very long and when I made it to the living room the kitchen light was dim and I remember it not being as bright as I thought it was. As I walked to the kitchen I saw movement toward the front door that was being illuminated by the dim kitchen light. Keep in mind no other light was on in the house. I looked over to see a 8 foot tall shadow figure who appeared to be male, he had a big head of curly hair and a long nose. Long enough to see well with his large shadow, as I looked at him he smiled and his shadow disappeared into the air vent, yes his shadow went straight into the vent not over it. And I freaked out and ran back to my room where I woke up my grandma who was my guardian at the time and she told me to go to bed. I later learned the house was build next to an old ancient native burial ground. It was an odd figure to even think about native people but I don’t know. It was strange and I’ve never forgotten that night. It’s one of few memories I swear I can remember like it just happened.

Hello! since I posted a story about my Dogman encounter in BC years ago (I will include that story at the end), I was asked a couple of times to expand on my paranormal encounters so I decided I would put my full story together in order as best as I can remember. None of these stories are fictional or exaggerated. These are my paranormal experiences or weird moments in my life, so far.

—The Beginning—

My paranormal experiences started when I was roughly six years old, my first experience was very unexpected since at this point in life I didn’t really know about the paranormal or spirits.

One evening, I was watching TV by myself in the living room while my parents were napping. As I was watching, I suddenly felt a chill on the back of my neck followed by what felt like someone pushing a firm single finger straight down into the top of my shoulder. As that happened simultaneously, I heard someone whisper “Hello” behind my right ear.

At that, I sprinted into my parents room telling them I heard someone whisper in my ear and that someone was in the house. They brushed me off and didn’t check for me. To this day, I wonder if this event somehow opened me up to the years of events that followed.

—Closet Encounter—

After this incident, unexplainable things started to happen in my house. My stepdad liked to scare me from time to time, and he would hide in my closet before bed and poke at my feet to scare me.

One night before bed, I checked my closet and closed it, knowing nobody was in there. Not long after I laid down, I could hear the door to my closet sliding opening. When I looked at the dark crack in the closet, I saw red eyes staring back at me. I ran, flicked the lights on, and opened the door, thinking my stepdad was in there trying to scare me again—but nobody was in there and those eyes were gone too.

—The Eyes in the Bathroom Vent—

Another experience I would have frequently involved the bathroom. When I took a bath, I would always see the same red eyes from the closet in the vent above the bathtub, just watching me.

It made me extremely uncomfortable, and I spent most of my bath time throwing a wet cloth at the vent. Usually, whenever I hit it dead on the eyes would disappear... until the next time I had a bath, that is.

—The First Apparition—

One night, my older brother and I were hanging out, playing games. He asked me to go upstairs to grab him a cup of ice cubes (he liked to eat them) as I was walking up the staircase, I looked up towards the railing that overlooked the downstairs. Standing there leaning onto the wooden railings was a figure dressed in a long, heavy-looking hooded robe. Its face was shrouded in blackness, and I couldn’t see any defining features.

I don’t know why, but I continued walking up the stairs but I noticed that as I moved, this entity stopped leaning on the railing and began mimicking my movements in reverse. Every step I took up, it would take one step backward toward the kitchen.

When I reached the top of the stairs, the figure had made it to the doorway of our kitchen, where it stood. It glanced in my direction and vanished right before my eyes.

--The Second Apparition—

I saw this figure one more time while I lived at this property.

I was upstairs on the computer, playing World of Warcraft, which had just recently been released. As I was playing, I started to hear cracking sounds, like someone cracking their knuckles. I thought I was alone in the house at the time, so it struck me as odd. I got up and opened the door to the hallway leading to the same staircase and kitchen area.

When I opened the door, the figure was standing at the end of the hall. It wasn’t looking at me though, but I could hear the cracking sound again, realizing that it was coming from this entity. I slammed the door shut and locked it. About ten seconds after shutting the door, I heard a strange sound that I can’t even describe. It was followed by what sounded like the door being pushed hard, like as if a big gust of wind had hit it.

To this day, I have no idea who—or what—that was, why it was there, or if it was trying to connect with me. I also wonder if this entity might be the same one with the red eyes I had seen previously. Was it getting closer to me?

--The Babysitter—

This next part I was unsure about leaving in, but since I’m describing my weird upbringing, I might as well.

I’m not sure if this person contributed to the weirdness I experienced, but she definitely pushed my brother and me to seek answers on our own, as you’ll see here.

My babysitter (I’m going to omit her name) was someone who had connections to our family. Her sister worked on our farm and had her own horses stabled there, so her mother often came along. After a while of her being around she ended up becoming our sitter.

Not long after she started sitting for us, she told us that she was a “witch.” She showed us really old Polaroid photos of her and two other people performing some kind of ritual with symbols carved into a table they sat at. She also showed us things she could do, like moving objects around without being touched.

For a long time, I thought this was just a fun story and tricks, but one day, I went inside from playing in the garage and made my way upstairs, where she was preparing dinner. She was unaware I was nearby. I witnessed one of our knives on the counter slide about two feet across straight into her hands and she just continued cutting as if nothing abnormal had just happened. She never saw that I noticed, and I never brought it up, but what that sparked in me was curiosity and because of that, I started researching “black magic.”

After looking around online with my brother, we stumbled onto some websites that gave directions on how to perform black magic rituals, and so we attempted it ourselves. We went outside, drew a pentagram with fallen leaves, placed a statue in the middle, and began to read off the ritual words we had written down. It was at this moment that our sitter looked outside, saw what we were doing, and ran out, screaming at us to stop. She started kicking the leaves everywhere and taking the statue we had placed. She scolded us, saying we had no idea what we were playing with and to never do something like that again. Not long after, she stopped sitting for us, and sadly, she passed away not too long after that. — While this part wasn’t necessarily paranormal, I think the context is needed to understand how my upbringing was and how these events may have created a domino effect for more to come. One thing was for sure, my sitter had an interest in the occult.

My last experience at this property was more tame but still creepy, I was getting ready for school in the morning and as I went to grab the hair comb it just flicked off the counter and hit the wall behind me, I know it didn’t just fall.

Note: This brings us to the end of the first house before we moved to rural BC near Lone Butte. I would like to note that these experiences so far are just the ones I could easily remember. They don’t include the noises I would hear, voices saying my name when nobody was home, shadows of people in my peripherals, and the feelings of being watched or sometimes touched.

—The Move to Lone Butte— At this point in my life, we had packed up and moved about 5 hours north to the outskirts of Lone Butte, BC—about a 20-minute drive from our place. The property we moved to sat on was roughly 100 acres of woodland. We were in the middle of nowhere, and our closest neighbors were a good distance away.

Anyway, here are my main experiences at this house. I won’t include everything, as there are just too many experiences of footsteps, things moving by themselves around the house, people talking when alone, shadows when nobody was home… you get the point.

—The Closet Slamming + Terrible Timing— My first major experience at this house was with my brother (who is very skeptical) and my stepsister. We were watching The Grudge at the time, and all of a sudden the upstairs closet started violently slamming open and closed for well over a few minutes. This terrified all of us and we didn’t know what to do, so we just ran outside and waited for our parents to come back home I did endup going back inside to grab shoes since the gravel was hurting my feet. When I went inside, I poked my head around the corner towards the living room just as the scene in The Grudge played where it's a close-up of her eyeball rolling from the back of her head to stare at you. I always found the timing to be so perfect it’s almost comical, but at that time, it scared me to death and I did not want to go back inside at all.

—The Schoolhouse & the woods— So, quick context about the property I was unaware of until I moved away years later. The property we lived on in Lone butte was around 100 acres and was old native land, the property had 2 barns, one for the horses and one was storage/workshop but it wasn’t always just a barn for storage, it use to be a old school were the catholic priest would bring the native children and force them lessons about Christ, this place on the property was burnt down at one point then rebuilt. It even had the old desk and chairs stacked up in the corner of it. There’s been rumours I’ve heard of possible mass graves being tied to places and that these school houses were not particularly kind towards the native children.

Anyways, my experiences with this schoolhouse along with my brother is that we’ve both seen the faces of kids in the glass and lights from the workshop would randomly turn on and off at all hours of the day or night. The woods at this property were just as spooky, we would find old leather belts tied up to trees, pickaxes, machetes, long and deep gouges ripped out of trees and prints of large animals around the forest. We also found what I think was a junk yard for old vintage cars, some have been there so long trees were growing through them.

—The Dogman— (Repost)

One night I was in the hot tub on the deck outside just watching the woods, taking in the silence, it was winter time and we just recently had a snowfall that left around knee height deep of snow.

It was around 2-3am and out of nowhere this very large wolf, bigger than one I have ever seen by far came out of the woods. I remember its coat being a shimmering silver and its bright piercing green eyes.

As this wolf was walking along the fence of our paddocks it locked eyes with mine and we just kinda stared at each other as he walked past me, both alone in the middle of the night, in the middle of nowhere. What happened next till this day instantly makes my spine shiver, as the wolf walked past he walked towards our barn with our horses in it. It became darker as it entered the barn but the other side of the barn still had a bright light illuminating the outside that I could see clearly. This wolf as it entered, half way through it went from the shape of a wolf to a very large, broad shouldered person. The horses didn’t make a single sound and this person that now stood roughly 7 feet tall walked down the rest of the hall and rounded the corner towards the open field but didn’t emerge from the other side, I never saw it again.

My brother had his own encounter with this same wolf I’m guessing, he told me that he woke up randomly one night from the feeling of being watched. He then looked out his window too see a very large wolf walking away from his window so I’m guessing it was watching him sleep.

———-

I’m going to end it off here, I do have more paranormal stories and some UFO stories but it’s more just subtle creepy experiences and this story is getting way too long lol. I wanted to highlight the major ones I felt may of contributed to these experiences happening to me growing up.

If you have any questions I’ll do my best to respond or if you have similar stories share the link or DM me, Im always interested in hearing others experiences. If you made it all the way through this thanks for reading!

A few years ago, I saw something weird in Cumming Ga, in someone’s backyard by a small creek. It was around 4–5 PM during the fall, and everything was calm and quiet, with some birds in the background. I was with a few friends and my brother at the time.

We noticed this figure, and it stood out because of how strange it looked. It was cream-colored or off-white and didn’t have any facial features at all. The head looked football-shaped, not exactly a football, more like an elongated oval, and the rest of the figure seemed pretty human-like in shape mixed with alien. It was around the same height or maybe a little taller than a normal person, and it had a slim build — not fat, but not muscular either.

At first, it was just standing there, staring at some sticks it had in its hand. After a while, it looked up and stared at us. It didn’t move or make any sound, just stood there watching us. We ended up running away after that. I wasn’t really scared at the time cuz I was like 7 or 8. The area around us was completely still, with no breeze or movement in the trees. It felt too quiet. The stillness added to the weirdness of the whole experience.

About a year or two later, I went back to that area with just a friend and my brother, and I saw it again, only this time it was closer, maybe about 150 feet away. It was still staring at us, just standing there and not doing anything else. It didn’t approach us fast but it slowly slowly hovered towards us, i definitely knew it was aware of us. After that, I never saw it again.

I was wondering if anyone has seen anything like this before, or if you might know what it could be. A off white or cream colored humanoid with a football-shaped head and no facial features around average height maybe a bit taller.

Before I start I wanna clarify that I know dreams are not supposed to be posted in this sub but I have no clue what to do because it's become more frequent and it seems like more than just a dream-

In this dream I'm standing at the end of a semi-circle(?) table. Surrounding the table are 7 figures, all are humanish except for their heads. The head of the table is a tall human figure with the head of a dove, on either side of them are these deer headed ones that have 3 eyes two of which are closed. To my right of the deer is a cat headed ones which seems shorter and more reserved. To my left is a raccoon faced one who seems similar to the cat but taller? All the figures have these white wings. I have these pitch black wings that feel heavy. The surroundings are box like and empty/white. During the Dream these figures talk and when they notice me all snap to look towards me and say one of two things, either "Your not supposed to be here" or "Your not ready" and then I wake up. Every time I wake up I have this throbbing pain in my back almost like those wings I had in my dream were severed? The day after the dream I swear I see these same people faintly there in real life and I hear them so strongly there. I also feel this strange need to fly? I don't know. I know dreams aren't really solid evidence of something going on but this just feels like more than just a dream. If anyone knows what this may be or if I'm purely just crazy please let me know.

i’ve always remembered this, ever since i was little—it’s always been in my subconscious. i remember being on a big cloud, and everything around me was beautiful and full of colors. i was standing on the cloud, waiting for something. i remember i was high up. down below, or on what you could call the earth, there were two happy people waving at me. i waved back. they asked me if i was ready to come down. i was so happy and said yes, i accept. what does this mean???

So, from I was born we , my mom, my dad and i were together, shifting from different rented homes across many districts and places where my mom worked as a nurse in a hospital. From my first ever rented home when my mom got pregnant was haunted as there was an entity named 'bak' named in the local legends of our state, he used to mess up with my mom like catching her and dragging her from the leg(sorry my english is not good)he used to do the same to my aunts who came to stay but were dragged out and forced to leave and eventually after some months of me being born we moved out and took on a quater Or apartment provide by government for us. I grew up there with the bathroom being far from the bedroom or other rooms, it was surrounded by bamboo walls which had craks in it which was uncomfortable. When i was a bit grown I had very less friends and was very lonely even till date , that time i had my best friend named nicknamed dolly whom I always played with. So, I was only 3 years when many of the activities happened, first let me tell you my dumbness which led to my attachment, I and dolly were little explorers exploring the neighborhood which was a bit silent because there were no people over there . We went to a newly constructed (idk if it was constructed just then 🙂) but the building was always locked and no people going in, but that day it was unlocked and we out of curiosity went inside to find construction sounds in the first floor so we went to find those people out (as I said we were dumber than a blonde) but were surprised to find nobody there, we checked all the floors but found nobody, but suddenly my eyes caught something, it was a room unlike other rooms it had furniture but broken and a ceiling lamp but broken still lighted, in the floor was all kinds of rubbish thrown here and there and strangely my eyes caught on a red peice of cloth tied to a 'tabish' a word in our language that means protection against evil entity which was destroyed very badly and all the spell things were vanished, a broken talisman that's what I found and my dumbass took it home without even dolly knowing it. Right after I brought that thing to our home and kept it under the bed ,I saw disturbing nightmares of black shadows entering my mother taking her life and many more that i can't remember actually. The night after, I got up feeling the need to pee, usually kids wake their parents but i was a rebel so i didn't and decided to go to that shitty far bathroom by myself and before I reach the bathroom I saw the main door of our house opened so my crazy ass had the idea that dolly might come to play with me and decided to go see her in the middle of the night and i peeked out the doors and called dolly facing the stairs as dolly lived in the first floor and us in the ground floor, when dolly didn't responded I left the door open and climbed the stairs to Dolly's room and knocked but no response in return so i came back disappointed and closed the door and locked it and went to the bathroom after I did my work when I was about to return I felt a strong chill down my spine and a whoose of wind just behind my ear and i felt that i heard a whisper a faint one.. I got soo scared that I ran to my room and snugged under my mom's arms. I don't know if the after residents of the apartment also experienced something or not but surely I did a lot and the whole thing has become so long that I tired and if you want I can do a part ll of my experiences because there are so many that It impossible to post so much for me. Many incidents are there that i have not covered as it is not as that clear in my memory. The apartment currently we are in also have many chilling incidents with me being physically harmed. So stay tuned for part ll!!! 🍁
