So I moved around a lot when I grew up, but there was one house in particular that was very very much haunted.  

and when i looked up, i saw what i signed was titled “Master Promissory Note.”

Tried posting this one a few years ago, but was too late. Not a ghost story, but it’s one of the scariest things that’s ever happened to me.

About 7 years ago, my boyfriend and I moved into a duplex. After living there for about six months, we had become well acquainted with our neighbors. Everyone was cool except for this older lady and her creepy brother who claimed to be a medicine man (he also liked to stare into everyone’s windows- especially at…

A bakery I worked at had just gotten a new client, and to keep up with demand we’d had to add an overnight shift to prep stuff for the early shifts when they came in. As the manager, I worked the first few weeks of the shift myself (alone) so that I could train whoever we hired later to do it.

I have never seen a ghost. I have not received repeated phone calls from disconnected numbers. Weird things do not generally happen to me.

I’m going to post a second story. I saw my dad.

This story isn’t supernatural but it’s 100% true and probably the closest I’ve (knowingly) come to being in serious trouble.

Ah, have I got one for you - at some point before my father died he said “Look for the pennies - that’s me saying hi”. My brother was crazy about it - every penny he saw was a sign from my Dad. Mom died a few years after Dad - wasn’t the best mom in the world and we had some unresolved stuff. Anyhoo, I’m moving out of…

This is more freaky than scary but because I love telling people about it and have an obsessive need to Be part of the fun I’ll tell you too. I grew up in NJ in an area that has a big part in the revolutionary war. I was pregnant at the time. My husband and I had dropped ofF one of our cars at the dealership and were…

Not sure this is “scary” but more “wtf”

Okay, I’ve tried to post this one a couple times, but it always gets buried. Maybe I’m in early enough this year?

I was on a horrible schedule, where I was waking up around 2AM every night, and had started a routine where I would go out for coffee early in the morning; before jumping on my computer for work.

Ok, first time commenting, so I’m sure I’ll be buried in the grays.... but, here goes.

So when I was around 6 years old I slept with this old, mustard yellow blanket. And every night I would have a dream about a monster that would creep into my room, stop at the end of my bed, and eat the blanket. In the morning the blanket was gone, when I got home from school the blanket was back. This went on for…

Right before I turned 21 I moved to a new city, transferred colleges, and got an apartment by myself. I picked a place out on the third story of a rambling old Victorian mansion - a modest studio with white metal cabinets from the 1950's and a rusted fire escape which always gave me bad feelings. It was metal, and…

My childhood home was in a small town in Indiana. It was a beautiful blue Dutch Colonial home in a neighborhood lined with huge old pine trees. Our house had been built in the 1800s and I always had a sense that it was haunted. The neighborhood was filled with kids my age and all the families got together for summer…

Not scary, but very sweet and probably nothing. 2005 my ex bf dies suddenly of a massive heart attack. He was an eccentric artist who loved to dance on his family’s graves and scatter pennies everywhere. After his funeral, we do the same for him. A few months later, I’m getting ready to take a shower and throw my…

Let’s rewind the clock back to 2008. The world was less (visibly) crazy, less (visibly) hateful. I was also a teenager. I had just fallen in love with smart cars.

Love this feature when I discovered it last year! I wrote something up in preparation for this Halloween:
