Have you ever seen/experienced a ghost?

Question

Tell me your story!

Answer 1

I used to live in a house that had things in it. I had a ghost cat. I could hear it scratching and every once in a while I would catch a glimpse of it. My sister brought my baby niece over for me to babysit one nigh and as she walked past the couch she almost fell. She asked me what I was doing with a cat. I told her I didn't have one. She said she saw it run under the couch. I told her to look under there herself. It was a sleeper sofa and had only about an inch from the bottom to the floor. Another time I was in the living room watching TV and the bathroom faucet came on full blast. No one was there but me. There were numerous other things that happened there but there isn't enough room here for everything. I will say that I was never frightened of any of it. I didn't get an evil feeling at all.

Answer 2

I believe in ghosts because people are made of energy, and energy cannot just disappear, it needs to be channeled somewhere. So I think ghosts are just the energy, not necessarily something evil or scary.

My apartment seems to be haunted...we've had doors open and close for no reason, lights flicker, and things have been broken. This started to happen when we adopted our cat, Pumpkin. And it seems like the ghost is only present when Pumpkin is agitated and alone. (If the other two male cats are in another room.) Here is the weirdest story to date...

Last Saturday my husband cleaning in the fridge, and he wanted to use his wine stopper for a bottle of wine. He looked in the fridge for the bottle stop I bought him last Christmas, it is very heavy silver and has his initials engraved on the top, so it's distinctive. It wasn't where he usually put it, so he asked me to look around for it. (I was doing major cleaning in our apartment, which freaks Pumpkin out, and the two males cats were away in the bathroom.) I looked through the whole fridge, the drawers in the kitchen, and even other rooms in case out cats found it on the floor and used it as a toy. But nope, I couldn't find it. A few hours later, I opened up the fridge, and it was in its usual spot. I figured my husband found it and put it back, so I asked him where he found it. He got a scared look on his face and said he didn't find it. So where was it all along? The ghost had it! Spooky!

Answer 3

Yes, I have done both. It is an incredible experience! It's very creepy but uplifting (depending on what your seeing). I love to do ghost hunting - making EVP's, taking photos, and "communicating" with the ghosts.

I live in an older apartment building, and I believe I am living with an 18th century gentleman that is dressed to the nines. I first discovered that I wasn't alone in the first 6 months of living here... He did not like where I kept the salt and pepper. Everytime I would go into my living room, my salt shaker would fly out of the kitchen (I have a small kitchen). But we have adapted to each other.

You will be excited when you see a ghost, I always am!

Answer 4

Yes, my children did see a ghost or what they thought it to be. They were sitting in the living room and got up to walk towards the kitchen that had a seating area. Sitting down was an older gentlement with his legs crossed and smoking a cigarette. As the children approached the kitchen door, the man got up and walked through the kitchen wall. They were 9 and ll at the time.

Answer 5

By the time I was 2 I was speaking in elaborate sentences. And my mother was married to a man that did drugs and drank. He used to abuse my mom. We lived in a house that a women was murdered in by her husband. Her husband had pushed her down the stairs in a rage one day. When my mothers marriage got really bad (slamming her head through the wall and the like) A lady on the top of the stairs appeared and she talked to me. Told me that me and my mother had to leave. And of course being 2and a half I relayed these messages to my mom. When my mom would come and look to see what I was doing, most often times than not she would find me talking to an invisible woman that my mom couldn't see. After a few months of my ghostly talkings she finally took heed and left him. After a few years she finally decided that it wasn't an imaginary friend, since never in my life had I had one. Most people in my family have seen a ghost. But you'll have to decide for yourself if you believe this or not.

Answer 6

Yes, I have seen couple times. But only in the movie house.
I've never experienced it though.
Ghost never comes to you unless you create it in your mind.
I do not believe existence of ghost.

Answer 7

Yes, but I don't see them, more 'feel' them. When my dad died, I walked into a room and could smell him - that time I 'saw' him. My daughter (in high school at that time) would have her hair rubbed (something Dad always did) until she fell asleep. I have even had a young man place his hand on my shoulder - it was so real that I told him to wait a minute (I thought it was my co-worker and I was waiting on a customer) - boy did I get a strange look! I have had things like this happen most of my life.

Answer 8

i did at my old house...i was in my bedroom and i was the first one awake. i was just laying in my bed and looking around the room when i heard breathing either in my room or just outside my door. it kept, almost moving it seemed because the breaths would get heavier or lighter...that went on for about an hour until i started to pray to God to ask him to make it go away...after about 15 min of prayer it went away.evry time it would come back i would pray. I never heard it again...i know it wasn't a family member or my dog because i had my door open and whenever the breaths would get heavy i never saw anyone.

Answer 9

Well, I believe that I was once threatened by a few. I also believe that my office is haunted.

I work very close to the Arkansas River in the city of Fort Smith. As I was leaving work one day, alone, I felt a sort of eerie presence behind me as I shut off the lights and locked the front door. Heading to my car, I quickened my pace. The presence wasn't scaring me that much, but I did want to leave the area. Whenever I get a strange feeling, I know to follow my instincts. At that time, I was living in Van Buren, a short 20 minute drive away if you took the fastest route, following the river. Twilight wasn't supposed to come until I arrived at the house I was staying at, but as I was driving on Clayton Expressway, past the park areas to my left, I felt the presence increase. I suddenly got a chill down my spine and focused on maintaining the speed limit. Next, I didn't know what hit me...the trees were not casting the shadows in front of me and around me. I counted six or seven different entities at one time, waving the shadows in front of my face and beside me. I kept driving, but told them to stop it, first politely, then with force, and then I prayed out loud. After I ended my prayer, I felt them weakening, and I was almost to the bridge to Van Buren...I had to stop at the Liquor Store parking lot, get out, and have a cigarette. Nothing like that had ever happened before, and since then, I have avoided Clayton Expressway like the plague. The spirit at the office still bothers me sometimes.

Another time, I went to Rebecca's grandparents' house...a very old, very Italian Victorian style house. She told me that she had felt presences there ever since she was a child. Another friend of ours, Ryan, accompanied us to the attic of the house, and we went through a ton of old newspapers and such. Ryan tried to open one of the small doors to see what was stowed away, but a thick cord was holding each one shut, and he could not unbend any of them, even though an extra cord was found and bent easily. As we were leaving the attic, we all felt a presence...and it felt like a warning to leave as soon as possible. We headed down, and Rebecca flicked off the lights as soon as she was downstairs, but Ryan and I were still up in the attic. He lit his lighter, and even though he and I moved slowly down and there was no perceivable draft, the flame was blown out. When we finally made it down the last of the steps, we heard a door slam upstairs. Yet again, I never went back.

I've heard other stories that my mother, grandmother, and aunt told me (when my grandfather spoke to them all at the same time of night even though they were in different rooms). My mother had a disturbing room in one of her apartments that neither she or her friend(that may have been genuinely psychic) would enter.

When my friend was "given" a key from a dead screaming woman (it dropped from the ceiling) and she took it and when she saw a ghost in an abandoned house.

Supposedly, the Old Fort Bisquit Company (now torn down), was haunted by poltergeists. My friend's father worked there and had a box thrown at him by...nobody.

Answer 10

yes, but I would clasify them as deamons and not ghosts. They can be really scary and opresive. I didn't see white people walking around, but they are like spirits opresing you. Dude, it was scary. But we prayed adn we started singing and they went away. You know, worship is the thing they fear the most. Call in the name of Jesus and God, if you are a christian they can't stand against you. For if he is for you, who can be against you?
