Answer 1

Here is one from Arkansas that was on Unexplained mysteries tv show...

http://littlerock.about.com/cs/urbanlege...


The local people tell a legend to explain the light. The legend is actually historically accurate. A railroad worker was working outside of the town one night. He accidentally fell into the path of a train and was killed. His head was severed from his body and never found. Local people say the light is actually the light from his lantern as he walks the tracks searching for his missing head. The death of the railman is a documented fact. It is also true that the light appeared shortly after his death. Are the two related? The townspeople say yes.

This light cannot be seen from the highway. You have to go to it. It's a two and half mile hike to the place where you can view the mysterious lantern. You will pass by two trestles before it is seen. The spot is marked by a slight incline in the tracks and then a long hill. The light is an eerie white-blue light which sometimes appears orangish. The light sways back and forth and moves around on the horizon. The light is frequently seen on the darkest nights and best seen when it is cloudy and overcast. The light never reflects off the tracks and there are no roads or buildings nearby so it isn't a reflection from passing headlights or anything else that is easily explainable, although an Arkansas Times article disagreed and claims the light is really just highway lights. There is also a theory that suggests stress on the quartz crystals underneath Gurdon causes them to emit electricity and produce the light.

Gurdon, Arkansas is located about 75 miles south of Little Rock on Interstate 30 and is located just east of the Interstate on Highway 67. The light is outside of town and along a stretch of railroad tracks. It takes a couple of hours to reach the location. You can ask for directions in Gurdon. Ask at any gas station. Everyone in this small town knows what you mean (they call it "ghost light bluffs"). There is a similiar light with a similiar story in Crossett.

This one I've actually seen for myself. It's quite bizarre but I don't think it looks like a lantern. It's a very crisp, clear light that you can see moving around. My friend and I tried to get close enough to it to see what it was, but that is impossible, it keeps moving around and once you get to where it was, it's gone. This a popular spot for kids on Halloween.

The house I live in now well I was the 1st one to live here and my neighbours said there used to be a cemetary years ago prior to these houses being built right here where I'm living now. One night I was chilling in my basement with a friend when we saw this ghost walk down the stairs and go into another room. It took me years to come back down cause I was afraid to see that spirit again. As a matter a fact I'm getting scared right now although it's been a long time since this happened.

Answer 3

There was once a lady who's husband died shortly after they had their first child. The women was devastated and had a hard time raising the baby. one day she just couldn't handle it anymore- and she put the baby in the car- and drove for hours. When she stopped she was in front of a water tower. Without thinking she took her little bundle of joy and started to climb the ladder. Before she knew it she was back in her car. And all she could hear were the screams and cries of the drowning baby. Since that day- it's said if you drive by that water tower- you can hear the baby screams- and will be haunted by the memory of the women who lost it all. Her love- her baby- and her mind...

since i am an adopted child, mom told me years ago what happened the first time i am here in this house. she said i was just 2 mos old then,every night she would hear loud noises and things banging on the wall, it never happened to her until i came here, then when i was already two years old, mom noticed me that i am talking to someone, at first she thought i was just imagining things but then she got surprised when my doll started to move as if it was playing with me, then at the age of 5, i saw a woman with blood flowing in her dress hanging on a tree, tried calling for help, then someone came and asked why, i told him what i saw and unfortunately he saw nothing..then when i looked up on that tree again, she's gone, i also see little people as small as my thumb playing around our house, i even see devils and so on...and believe it or not, i do have an incubus....i am not lying, but then it's ok if people thinks i am crazy even tough i am not, i can't blame no one if i do have a gift that has become a CURSE!

Answer 5

My ghost story is not scary, so therefore not the best answer, but it is a family story and it actually happened.

My great uncle Joseph Little had left his young wife to fight in the Civil war. It wasn't over quickly, as everyone thought it would be, and as time wore on, Joseph's wife Serena became more and more depressed. She pined awfully for Joseph and feared he would never return. In fact, she became so convinced that she would never see him again, that she began to lose weight and lose interest in life itself. One night, she stood on the porch of the family home and called out, "Oh, Joseph, you will never come back". A voice from the fence line answered, "I'm here now, Serena." She ran to the fence, to see standing on the other side, her husband Joseph, ragged and dirty, holding the reins of his lathered horse. "I've come home, Serena, and I'll not leave again", he told her. "Now, go inside and wait for me, I will join you shortly." He led his horse down the fence line and she ran inside and in a flurry of activity, excitedly told the family (his father and mother and sister) that Joseph was home, as she set food on the table, started the water for coffee, shook the wrinkles from her skirts and smoothed her hair. She stood by the door, paced the floor and sat at the table, waiting, as did they all. But Joseph never came in, that night. For that night, Joseph Little, one of Gen. John Magruder's first pennisula line, had died in a chance encounter with Union forces on the edges of the Confederate encampment at Young's Mill, Va. But in the stable at his home, was Sukey, the horse he had ridden to war.

True story.
