I thought of an ex right around the moment she died.

We were middle school sweethearts for about a minute and then I just forgot about her until that moment.

Ghost in the pinball machine.

When I was in the second grade I had this plug in, stand-upHappy Dayspinball machine.
(yep…I am feelin old).
If you left it plugged in it would eventually start making sounds as if it was being played.
One night I went to bed and it started making the sounds.
I reached for the plug and could not find it.
I jumped out of bed and turned on the light.
I did not sleep in my bed for a week.

Something under my bed kept tugging on my sheets.
I sat up all night scared shitless.

Im maybe 20m away.
There was four completely white, definitely albino-looking men.
Bald, black eyes looking straight ahead.
A moment after noticing them they all turn and look at me in unison.
Their heads snapped instantly and all four of them met my eyes.
I jolted back around the corner then slowly looked back around to ensure I wasnt seeing things.
Nope, there was the car and the men still looking at me.
Then I blinked and the car was empty.

The phantom on the field.
Just kind of a wide-open field.
I looked over assuming I was going to see someone I knew, but it wasnt.
Just was worth mentioning.
When I looked over I saw a small person about four feet tall.
I say person because I still dont know if it was a man or woman, child or adult.
But more than anything, the clothes are what really threw me.
The clothes looked as though they were made by someone who had never seen clothes before.
As if some made what were supposed to be clothes.
Thats the only way I can describe it.
Well, I answered, but quickly looked away.
Well, I turned around to an empty field.
I have no idea where this person went, since I only walked about ten steps.
I have no idea what I saw and actually thought that I had a full-on hallucination.
Nothing like that has ever happened to me before, but it was definitely an odd feeling.

I was never a believer in ghosts/spirits the paranormal, UFOs, and stuff.
About two years ago me and buddy decided to go on a drive.
This is in Norway, by the way.
So we head back, slowly, and I realize that he is fine!
Hes not getting any bad feelings, he is in his normal mood.
So I convinced myself that Im acting weird and that its probably just some crazy hiker.
(I have to admit I was still pretty scared so I didnt say anything).
The figure then looks up in our direction and we get the fucking shit scared out of us.
I swear to god we both felt so fearful that we were completely paralyzed.
I dont know how he found the courage to press the gas and get the hell out of there.

Ghosts really wanted to watch Jerry Springer in my dorm room.
I was assigned to stay in the room that the aforementioned student died in.
During my week shit got weird.
Several times I heard loud tapping from the inside of my window.
I found my TV was on and the volume was extremely loud.
I took the batteries out, tried again, and still the TV was on.
I picked my lazy ass up, walked to the TV, and pressed the power button.
I turned the volume down.
I finally unplugged the TV and…Nothing.
I ran from the room, got another counselor, and showed them.

The thing that shakes my bed.
Ive got what I call a bed shaker.
Whatever it is has been following me around since I was about 8.
I heard her and my father reply Were in the living room!
and I quickly booted it downstairs.
Now its happening every few weeks.
Ill wake up to my bed shaking like fuck, and of course Im terrified.
The one time I was grateful for the bed-shaker was about a year ago.
My bed started doing that funky dance, and I woke up.
My daughter (who was under a year) started HOWLING.
Thank FUCK I got in there on time.

Did you hear that?
My twins were two months old and barely sleeping through the night.
My wife goes, did you hear that?
It wasnt my wifes voice.
The lady in white.
The supposed lady in white.
Now this was about 100 feet away and it kind of freaked us out.
We looked at each other and freaked out so bad we ran inside the house and slammed the door.
His sister looks at us crazy and we tell her what we just had seen.
Bad luck with the Ouija board.
At that time, I thought the fucking wall collapsed or something in that nature.
A portrait of my dog wasRIPPEDof the wall.
that was my story.

She still has the scars and I have pictures of it somewhere.
They look like claw marks.
That last one made us move out because we didnt get any rest anymore.
Flip-flop, flip-flop, flip-flop, walking toward my door.
One night, I was in bed, getting ready to go to sleep.
I was around 17, living in my parents basement.
I heard someone bring up the basement door and start walking down the steps.
They came down the steps, flip-flop, flip-flop, flip-flop, and then stopped.
I called out anyway, Jake?
Flip-flop, flip-flop, flip-flop, walking toward my door.
The knob on my door started to move.
There was an audible, disappointed sigh.
Then, flip-flop, flip-flop, flip-flop, away from my door and back up the steps.
I was straight-up scared.
I grabbed a baseball bat and went out to the living room dividing the bedrooms.
No one in the bathroom, no one in my brothers room, no one on the steps.
We had two phone lines at the house, so I called my parents line.
Dad, did you see headlights come up the driveway, or hear anyone come in the house?
Did you or mom just come downstairs wearing flip-flops?
Go back to bed, son.
I thought someone had snuck into our house.
It was the most genuinely terrified Id ever been.
He wore flip-flops almost every single day.

The mysterious face in the photo.
This happened about 6 years or so ago when I was in high school.
It was half intense study-time and half everyone just spending time together talking or goofing off.
It would last from about 7pm to about 1am or 2am depending on how tired the teachers got.
They explain that they were developing the photos and one of them had a ghost in it.
Of course, were all curious so we go to the dark room to check it out.
The two girls are leaning against the banister to the second floor.
They werent making kissy faces after all now that I see the original again).
The rest of us thought it was awesome.
We were trying to figure out what had happened.
Come Monday things got even more strange.
The girls were freaking out again and showed the art teacher their copy of the photo.
The face was gone.
EVERYONE was in uproar at this point with how crazy creepy the whole thing was.
They decided to develop yet another photo to see what happened, but when it came out?
Not a trace of it.
Difficult to remember) and was befuddled by the whole ordeal.
He kept teasing the girls about it and they are since terrified of that building.
Who knows what happened.
It was definitely a human face, of a girl I did not recognize.
Nevertheless, its still a fun story.
I can show it to you and then attempt to Photoshop in what it looked like.
Double Edit: She says she still has it but not with her.
She is going to have her mom give a shot to scan it.
Triple Edit: Alright!
Definitely a weird experience.
but it was definitely fascinating, unusual and strangely chilling.

Dead snakes all over the place.
My grandmother murdered my grandfather.
Pushed him into a doorknob.
Fast forward to the day of thefuneral.
As my grandmother is leaving the house, theres a dead rattlesnake on her doormat.
Weird enough, but that shit happens out in the country.
She calls my uncle and he gets rid of it.
Weirder, but still within reasonable coincidence standards.
When she returns to her house after the funeral, theres another dead snake on her front porch.
I think this one was a rat snake, but at this point its getting pretty fucking weird.
She calls my uncle again, and he gets rid of it.
According to her, it just stared at her for a couple of minutes then flew off.

Pet-sat for a dog that lived in a house where the ghosts hated me.
I was pet-sitting for a client that goes to the vet clinic I worked at.
I was to stay overnight and basically just live there while they were gone.
No big deal, I pet-sit on a regular basis.
The day went by fine and then night came.
I was told to sleep upstairs with the lab.
When it was time for bed, she did not want to go upstairs.
Had her tail between her legs and was whining.
This had me a little nervous since she normally sleeps upstairs with the owners.
After 5 minutes of trying, I finally get her up.
I went to the bedroom and climbed in bed.
If its a normal house noise, they arent disturbed.
Lights go out, and the dog was pacing like crazy.
And then the shadows appear under the door.
Constantly moving and definitely not mine or the dogs.
They dont have any other pets, so this worried me some, but I dismissed it.
Then it sounded like a moving team was working in the room next to me.
It literally sounded like the entire room was being rearranged.
Now the dog started whining, cowering, and wont stop looking from me to the door.
At this point Im scared and contemplating making a mad dash downstairs.
All the noises I heard stopped and the whole house is quiet.
I got to the outside door, which was a pain because it sticks and was hard to open.
Then to close it you have to slam it shut or it doesnt latch.
I opened it and got outside with the dog.
The next morning, I returned with the dog to feed her breakfast.
I went in through the attached garage and all is fine in the house.
While the dog was eating, I decided to go outside and get the mail.
I returned to the garage door, which was locked, and I had left in unlocked.
Luckily, I had the front door key in my car and could enter.
Needless to say, I didnt stay there again.
TL; DR: Didnt believe inghosts.
Pet-sat for a dog that lived in a house where the ghosts hated me.

He had been exorcised of many different demons.
This is not that story, but my own.
After his experience, he told me all about it and prayed that I experience something similar.
So one night I was standing outside smoking a cigarette, and I had this epiphany.
As I am having this thought, something in my head said, No you are not.
Like a voice that was not mine.
And what I felt was like someone stepping outside of my body and going behind me.
I freaked out and ran inside.
So I am sitting in my living room by myself freaked out, and the phone rings.
I answer and there is this Roar wiz evil sounding non-English crap on the phone.
I hung up, threw the phone, then ran to my room.
Then I am just sitting in my room praying, and I felt a good presence surround me.
After a minute or two, I look up at my wall.
Like it couldnt enter the room, but I could somehow see it through the wall.
It was as if you drew an outline around someone, then on the inside its just dark.
So dark, its the absence of light.
At this point I freak out again and run into my brothers room and just sit there paralyzed.
This is the only time I have seen or felt anything like this.
I am not super religious, but this surely has affected my views on religion.
