so, one time when I lived with my aunt and I was baby sitting my little baby cousin, some freaky stuff happened. My aunt was really over protective, and she had two baby monitors. One was in the living room and the other was in her room. So on the living room monitor, i heard a baby crying. I went into the nursery to…

I've honestly never found a way to completely shut off my "seeing" side, though I see things less when I'm busy or stressed. When I'm home alone and I know a ghost is there, I wear my headphones to avoid being communicated with. I also avoid thinking about them, as I've found that only encourages ghostly antics.

Did you work in Pine Ridge village? If so, you might've heard a lot about the two Victorian ladies that haunt the area by the creek. I've never seen them, but I learned through research at the local mission that the area that kids say the women hang around at used to be the old boarding school. It was surrounded by a…

Just contributing a story in this thread since it's a cool collection of people with psychic family members! My grandma, uncle, sister and myself are all psychic though our abilities are varied.

One more (despite the fact that I've had to sleep with the lights on for the past two nights after my sharing brought 'visitors'):

A day late to the party, but I'll share.

I grew up on an Indian Reservation in the Dakotas. My father became rather traditional as he got older, and being aware of the spirits that are constantly around us is a huge part of Sioux spirituality. The Cheyenne believe that once something terrible happens in a place, it…

My brother used to have night terrors in his teens, and his first one happened when we were on vacation, the first time we had a suite and we had a separate room from our parents. (not just a girls bed/ boys bed). He jumped over me and went to look at the window talking about how they were 'going to kill us!' and I…

Maybe second sight is what I have, then. I'll have to look into it.

Oh man, ghostly kids. I lived in a house from hell for four years, from age eleven to almost sixteen. There was constantly something happening. Doors flying open and shut, voices, footsteps. Nothing ever stayed where you put it. I was alone there a lot because both my parents worked and I was constantly terrified. One…

I lived in a 200 yr. old farmhouse next to a really old cemetery that harbors a 'witches' grave (Hannah Crannah, Monroe CT's resident witch), and I never experienced anything creepy whatsoever (except my teenage son's friends).

This just happened last month. We all have a bit of "second sight" in our family. I woke up one morning and an old Catholic hymn was running through my head, and I thought it was strange because I don't attend mass anymore and it's not a hymn that is on the modern church frequent playlist these days.

I'm going to preface this by saying that I've been able to see, hear, and feel things since I was a small child. It stopped being weird for me years ago, and it's been happening less and less the older I get.

In my apartment I live with at least 2 ghosts. One is a victorian woman that lived in the structure that used…

I was 13 years old babysitting for a 10 month old baby. I put him to bed no problem and go back into the living room to watch TV. It's maybe 7 pm, parents due back at 11. I'm pretty paranoid about sleeping babies so I go back every maybe 20-30 minutes to make sure the kid is still breathing. At around 9 I check on…

When my older sister was born my parents moved into a small house and in that house the laundry room was right across the kitchen table. So my sister would often be seen waving and staring and giggling while looking into the laundry room. This behavior continued for a long time and when she could finally talk they…

I have a spooky story!

I have a similar story. I had moved into my first apt right after my grandmother passed. It was an old, crappy apartment, but it was MINE! ALL MINE.

I was 17 and soundly sleeping in bed until I was startled awake by a weight pressing down on my body. It felt like someone was holding me down. I was groggy and confused and then a voice started talking to me. The voice was definitely male and incredibly menacing. It said, "You think you know me? You don't know…

Two stories that give me "chicken skin" every time:

I posted this earlier. I hope you guys enjoy it.
