My mom swears she saw my late grandpa who lived with us come back into our house after he passed. He died from cancer and came to tell her that he was so much happier and could move again.
My work building pretty much surrounds a haunted historic site so we blame everything on the famous ghost from over there.
The scariest place I've ever been is a place known as "Bunny Man Bridge" near where I grew up. I went in broad daylight and almost threw up it was so creepy. There's definitely something off about it even though the story that gave it it's name appears to be false...but I would never go there again. Here's a link to a story about it: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bunny_Man

I'll share my first ghost encounter. I was 15 and we lived in a 2 flat. My sisters and I slept in the lower level and my parents slept upstairs. We each had our own bedroom with mine in the middle closest to the bathroom. One night I couldn't sleep and was tossing and turning. I thought I heard my sister get up and thinking she was going to the bathroom, turned to face the doorway (no doors on our bedrooms). Instead I saw about 4 young children walking in a single file. The house was pitch dark but they had a soft white glow to them. Once they moved past my doorway, I hid under the covers. I told my mom about it later and she said that sometimes children who die young don't realize it and are lost. She also said that my uncle, who used to live in that apt, also had seen some weird scary stuff.
I think I saw a ghost once. I can't prove or disprove it because it only happened once when I was 9 years old.
For my 9th birthday, I had a slumber party and invited a bunch of girls to stay over. It got to be pretty late at night when we looked out the upstairs living room window and saw what appeared to be a little boy standing next to my mailbox. We watched him for a couple minutes while trying to figure out if it was one of my neighbors across the street. He just stood there dressed in what I think was turn of the century clothing. We eventually closed the blinds and one of my friends got the bright idea to try Bloody Mary. I freaked out, my mom heard us and made us go to bed.
I've always wanted to ask one of the other girls if they remember that happening, but I don't want to look crazy. I also don't speak to most of them anymore so it would be a really random message.
My grandfather passed away about two years before my oldest niece was born. My grandmother gave my brother the rocking chair that my grandfather loved. They never talked about the chair being from our "Pop". One day when my niece was two, she pointed at the chair and waved. When my brother asked her who she was waving to, she said Pop.
Also related to my Pop: Right after I had my son I was sitting in my living room browsing facebook with my son asleep on me. An article popped up on my feed about how people who have passed try to reach out. It said that three of the main ways are through electronics, smells, and animals. Well.....as I was reading the article, the TV started flickering in and out and the cable box reset itself. That has never happened automatically. Then, I had a ladybug crawling on my arm. I have never before or after had a ladybug in my house. Lastly, the next day I went outside and was getting the mail when I could distinctly smell pipe smoke. My Pop smoked a pipe. There was nobody else around and it is a pretty distinctive smell.
Ever since then I consider ladybugs a sign from my Pop.

The strangest thing that ever happened to me was when I was around 10 we had a big record player in our dining room. It was rarely used, mostly only at Christmas time for Christmas albums, which were always put away by my mom at the end of the season. In the middle of the night one night in the summer, all of a sudden my mom, brother, and I (my dad was away on a business trip), we were woken up to The Chipmunks Christmas album playing extra fast and very loud. It was really strange since there should not have been any record on the player and it had also not been used in many months. My mom also said that when I was an infant, the whole family was taking a nap when my mom heard the kitchen cabinets opening and closing like someone was looking for something. She thought it was my grandmother who's room was on the other side of the house, but when she got up later and asked her, my grandmother said she thought it was my mom or dad in the kitchen. My brother and I were still in cribs so it wasn't us. I was always afraid of the dark when we lived in that house, slept with all the lights on and spent most nights sleeping on my parents' bedroom floor. As soon as we moved to a different house, I had no problems sleeping in my own room with no lights on. There was always something that felt off in that house.

I have a couple.
When I was young, I was closing the door from the garage to the house and the door jerked back open and pulled me forward. Freaked me out.
Another time (in the same house), I felt something move my hair.
A few weeks after my grandpa died, I was getting out of my car and smelled his cigar smoke. It was strong and there was no one else around. My Aunt smelt it in her car very strongly too and she doesn't smoke.
My grandpa and my brother have come to me in my dreams after they had passed. I totally believe it was them saying they were OK.
I do paranormal investigations on the side for fun. I'm also a sensitive.
My parents live in a haunted house.
There are, we believe, three spirits there. One is a man. One is a woman. One is a child.
I've segmental of them. At night, it sounds like someone running around the hall, and we've seen a child's handprint show up a lot on their stainless steel fridge even though there are no kids at that house.
I've seen the man as a shadow in their downstairs family room, and you can smell cigarette smoke and coffee at the same time even though nobody in yhe house smokes or drinks coffee.
The woman is the only one that creeps me out. I sa w her under my parents dining room table hunched down. She had Lon brown hair pulled back and a blue dress.
I think she killed her family. I haven't been able to bring myself to look it up, but I feel like it's what happened.
The restaurant I worked at was also a big ball of haunted goodness.
People hated the upstairs where you could have parties. It had this creepy feel to it, and it always made me feel a weird.Workers, including myself would see shadows and hear talking when nobody was there.
A cook, my husband and I did a hunt there one night with management permission.
We got my name on an evp.
When we went upstairs, we asked a ton of questions. We could smell cologne. I asked how the person died, and I felt like I was going to have an asthma attack. On the evp, we got a response to my question. It said dust.

We went on a ghost tour for a bachelor/bachelorette party when MH and I were dating. The wedding was a destination type wedding, and the hotel the couple was staying at is really famous for being haunted. It's been on Ghost Hunters, TAPS, all the cool shows.
So anyways, we were the obnoxious ones on the ghost tour, making fun of it and making fun of all the people who were oooohing and aaaahing over every little thing. So my now husband had my camera and was taking pictures for fun, and caught these two pics back to back. The tour guide was reading EVPs and it was going crazy. Everyone was like I HAVE CHILLS OMG, and MH was cracking up so he took these pics. We all thought it was a bunch of BS until we got in the car and I was reviewing the pictures and found these two. MH still thinks it's a bunch of BS.
Putting pictures under spoilers because I know some people are scaredy cats. #thatsforyou pippacricket . #lurveyou You'll want to look to the right of the tour guide.
Wondering why the Anna on the left has a whole leg and part butt cheek showing before the words start? And what is red patch looking thing on the butt of the dress?
OH GOD! I have a love/hate relationship with that story, wanderingheart.
I'm awake enough today to tell one of my stories...
Some crazyass shit used to happen in my first apartment in LA. It didn't help that a week before we moved in, the woman across the hall was found dead in her apartment. Her body had been there for weeks before anyone had checked in on her.
So one night, I was dead asleep in bed. At about 3:00 a.m., I started to feel pulling on my toes. Then there was pulling on my leg (cue visions of Paranormal Activity). My first thought was, "THIS is how H wants to wake me up to have sex? REALLY? Are you effing kidding me?" So I turned over to face him and he was dead asleep.
And the pulling continued.
I was too terrified to look to the foot of the bed. All I did was say, "Yea, I get it. You're here. I need to sleep. Please stop."
