The Black Dog

I used to stay later than everyone else at the office, too. I’ve posted about it before. It always sounded like someone was coming down the hall when everyone was already long gone for the day. The footsteps always stopped right outside my office door and I’d look up, expecting to see someone there but there was never…

BEACHTOWN

Here are a few of my spooky encounters over the years:
-One summer when I was in law school, I worked at a small law firm whose offices were in a 100+ year old house. It was a very small firm, and the offices of the attorneys, paralegal, and assistants were spread out over the whole house. And I knew every person that…

Godspeed my friend

My parents came to the US from South America in the 70’s. So we were always having family/friends to California for a visit. Part of the touring was always going to see the Queen Mary, retired ship and presently a hotel. It kinda looks like the Titanic when you squint.

Maybe too late to the game, but here’s my only (personal) story:

Ummmm ok but what exactly do you mean by “the maimed thing just comes back”?!? 😳

I’m not really a believer in the supernatural, but I had a ghost in my old apartment.

Over the first lockdown, I decided to download a sleep tracker and take my sleep hygiene more seriously, as I’ve had interrupted sleep since childhood. It wasn’t hard to use—- I’d tell the tracker I was going to sleep, put it beside me, and then turn it off on the morning.

Okay, I’ll try to make a brief one that’s not as scary as others, just mildy interesting and mysterious. I’ll also preface this with - I am NOT a great writer.

I live in the house that was my grandparents’, now my mom’s house, and my husband and I take care of her.

After a breakup, I took a while to start dating or sleeping with anyone for a little while, but decided after a year to get back on the horse so to speak. While on Grindr, a headless torso guy sent a few compliments my way and I was intrigued as the chat continued. He was about to move away in a week, said he was also…

I live in Co. Wexford,Ireland near Loftus Hall, once billed as the most haunted house in Ireland. Which is saying summat. It’s been sold and being renovated as a golf resort now-we’ll see how that goes. For years it was a tourist attraction with “let us scare you” actors doing tours. Most of that was BS. But if you…

So I worked for police dispatch in a decently sized city (in the top 15 in the US) for over a decade. This story happened somewhere after 2004 but before 2008-ish, I think.

Story: Alice’s house

this is a story my mom told me and to this day it still freaks her out to talk about it. what makes it creepier is that my mom doesn’t believe in paranormal things related to ghosts or aliens, so you know its definitely not BS. my sibilngs and cousin were also there and they 100% confirm this happened.

The forest changed

Please delete your creative writing attempt. This is not the place. 

Five or so years ago, my partner and I were eating breakfast at our favorite diner in San Francisco’s Inner Sunset neighborhood. This diner was small and had tables and booths strewn throughout, and a u-shaped bar in the middle with a big mirror behind the open end of the “u” (imagine classic 1950's diner). We were…
