True Ghost Story: Books At Store Falling Off The Shelves

The following report was sent into our website by Melissa on March 18, 2007:

“There is a store in the local mall that I have been told is haunted. I worked there for about a year, but nothing ever happened that I noticed. My friends (who also worked at this store) often tell me this is because I am incredibly oblivious at the best of times, or that I would often write off things like objects moved or missing to me having a terrible memory (which sadly, I do.)

My friends often had dealings with this ghost, often if no one else was present in the store. There would be merchandise that went missing and reappear in odd places, and books that would fall off the shelves while the aisles were empty. This wouldn’t be odd, but the books that fell weren’t in precarious positions. We would find books on the floor, put them back, walk away only to find the book on the floor again when we returned.

My friends often got frustrated when they couldn’t find the item they were looking for and say ” where is this damn book” or some such comment. They would then turn around and find the exact book they were looking for half pulled out of the shelf.

These occurrences were commonplace for most of us (although, again, I never noticed anything. Captain Oblivious, they call me). They even affectionately called the ghost Ted, or Fred, and would often thank him if he was being helpful, or snap at him when he was being obnoxious. We were pretty comfortable with him there, and he never seemed to bother us aside from the harmless pranks.

I stopped working at the store when I moved away for school, and none of my friends work at the store anymore, but I sometimes wonder if he’s still there. I’ve never had the nerve to ask the new people if they’ve noticed anything.”

True Ghost Story: Haunted Mill

The following report was sent into our website by Jessy on March 15, 2007:

“It’s not so much as what has happened to me as to what has happened in this place. It used to be an old mill and and is a bar in one part. There are many stories of people that were killed there and now I have some pictures to show that. In one photo you can see three other faces. In another photo there is a very cruel looking face, bearing white teeth and blank eyes. When you are in the bar sometimes when there are little or no people in the bar things move and it sounds like people working or moving around slamming down heavy objects.”

True Ghost Story: School Ghost Little Girl Crying

The following report was sent into our website by Hillary on March 15, 2007:

“Hi I am telling you about a true story that happened to me. After school before a basketball game me and two others went to get changed. When we walked in it was like always. Then, over by the bathroom and showers it got really really cold. We started hearing noises, so we all sat in the corner to see what would happen next. Then there was three drips and there was three of us.

Later that night we went back in and the lights flickered on and off a few times and there was a scream. When I turned around my best friend was crying and she said she saw a little girl with brown hair she was about 4 feet crying and came right up to her. Just then it dripped again and just then shoes flew off the bench and we left. I never go in the change room and I heard that the water still drips for as many people that are in the change room.”

True Ghost Story: A Figure of White Gliding Down the Stairs

The following report was sent into our website by Chris on March 13, 2007:

“Over the years my home has been haunted by what I presume to be various spirits.

I was about four years old when I first encountered something strange. My mother was in the kitchen and someone put their hand on her shoulder and whispered something in her ear. She asked us who did it … but we weren’t near the kitchen and I noticed fear in her face.

Over the years stranger things happened, but at such a random rate that they didn’t pose much of an issue.

Smells of smoke would occur for no reason, a hairdryer flew off a counter. Harsh banging on doors, electronics turning off/on on their own. A toy doll talking all night with a different voice then it should’ve had. Ashes appearing one morning – covering everything in a bedroom as if it had snowed. A figure of white gliding down the stairs once appeared in a random birthday picture.

More things have happened than what I have stated above. A child fearing the “dark man” as she points to nothing and etc.

We still live in the house only because months will pass with no occurrences … and then out of the blue something strange will happen, and again normality takes over.”

True Ghost Story: Possession or Awakening?

March 8, 2007 · by Michelle McKay

Location: Pierrefonds, Quebec, Canada

The following report was sent into our website by Tim on March 8, 2007:

“I had been doing a lot of writing about the present state of the Earth. Never really before interested in writing, I began to do research and putting my conclusions down on paper..I was alone in my room with the door deadbolted from the inside. I was alone. I hung my gold cross on a small shot glass and had my back to it standing up. I was considering renouncing my faith.. I was repeating all the negative things in my head remembering what lead me to this impass.. Out of nowhere the gold cross was thrown at my back and it fell on the floor at my feet. I picked it up, put it on and made sure I was alone.. “I was not scared at all” I pinched myself hard but there was no pain whatsoever.

I could also feel that reality around me was being perceived differently..That was the beginning of everything…I opened the door and went into the kitchen.. I had an open bottle of wine and took a glass full back to my room to take the edge off.. After I took just a few sips I started to feel like I was going vomit and I did.. I had to run into the bathroom and started being sick. After I finished throwing up I could not catch my breath, it felt like I was being choked..The seconds were adding up and all I could think of is I am going to die.. It lasted so long without being able to breath. While this going on I could feel the presence of another.. It felt like everything around me stopped..I felt nothing..

I went back in my room and put on my favorite NHL jersey and got the hell out of there. Thats when the voices started clear as day… Asking me question, telling me what to do… It was not stronger than me but it was definately not my own conscience. The voices of friends..The idea was to try to get me to believe an alternate reality and from that reality I would have to make decisions on where to go or what to do.

I made it about 40 km from my home…Then decided to go back home.. On the way home I happened to drive through a long tunnel and when I came out the other side the whole sky was white… Not daytime white… Moonlight white.. And all the other cars that were on the road had no voluntary brain activity.. The cars were just roaming off the road and hitting each other as if zombies were driving.. I drove through all the mayhem ffor about 3-5 minutes and then the Sun began to rise.. I can tell you that I have not been the same (physically or mentally) since that night.. I have changed so much..

There is about 6 hrs missing from the time I left the house to the time the Sun came up…

There are many memories from this night that I have not mentioned but the next day I had weird looking marks on my body.. about 5 of them.. 1 inch rashes started to appear..

I dunno, there are so many other variables that I have not mentioned… Anyhow…I am 100% changed.My physical abilities have increased and I look different. My weight has gone up but I look less fat. I feel like I know things before they are going to happen and I began understanding things about physics that I never learned before.. Although the experience was life changing I can’t help believe it was not negative demon but something else… Something for me to think about for the rest of my life…There is a lot more to this story…I remember everything like it was yesterday… What can I do except tell someone.. Thanks for listening.”

True Ghost Story: A Hooded Black Figure at the End of the Bed

March 7, 2007 · by Michelle McKay

Location: Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada

The following report was sent into our website by Tammy on March 7, 2007:

“In 1987 I attended college in Medicine Hat and had a roommate. At first things were very “normal.” Within the first week, I had a terrifying nightmare. In my dream, I had seen a hooded black figure at the end of the bed. When I awoke, I told my roommate about my dream and she said she dreamt the same thing. As the weeks progressed strange things started to happen. At first, the power would go out in just our ROOM!!! The rest of the dorms were fine, just our room was in the dark. Then, the lights would start to flicker in the middle of the night. Once, the cord to the light was even disconnected. Then, we started finding articles of clothing (from a small child) laying in our dorm room. This was very strange because we always LOCKED our doors so how did these articles of clothing get in there?

One day, my roommate was working at her desk and I was coming up the stairs. I could see her sitting at her desk working and I said, “Hi Roomy!” As I approached the door, the door slammed right in my face. I think my nose still hurts! My roommate and I were starting to get really nervous about living in our dorm. We talked to previous roommates of that room and they confessed that they would hold seances in that room because it was the largest room in the building. The previous roommates said that they soon stopped because freaky things started happening to them too. Eventually, I had to get a priest to do some exorcisms to get those spirits out of there. I had to have him come twice because usually, you don’t get them all the first time.”
