My Hubby and his Mother have.\n\nIn the house they live in when he was a baby, the previous owner killed himself in the back bedroom because his wife left him.\n\nThe ghost hated woman, and used to poke my MiL all night.  He also pushed her down the stairs when she was pregnant.\n\nThey have been back to the house since, and there was a squatter living there and said that the last tenants we a load of female students, who just left the house screaming in the middle of the night.\n\nMy in-laws also now tell me that there was a ghost in my old house, in my son's bedroom.  And whenever they came to stay it kept waking them up and throwing fireballs at them.

Yes.  My oldest sister lived in a house that had poltergiest in it.  They used to do all kinds of things in that house.  They used to turn on the washing machine, they would play my sister's flute during the night, and they would also play the drums that belonged to my neice.  They never hurt anyone - just did little things like I said.  Sometimes they would turn on the radio, my sister would turn it off, and they would turn it on again.  You couldn't see these poltergeist, but they were always there.  They weren't mean, just liked to tease everyone.  It is just some kind of a "fluke" in some people's houses.  Don't know why but it happens.

Yea I was at a really old hotel and it had been turned into an apartment building, but it was haunted! I was creepy if you went into the ballroom you could feel them everywhere! We even got pix of it looking out the window when we knew no body was in the room!

I have never "met" a ghost but I know I have "experienced" one. My mother inlaw died and I was at a babyshower of a woman she knew well.  After most the guest left, the four remaining women were sitting at a table when a box of detergent flew off the laundry shelf onto the floor....powder went everywhere.  All the women were standing in the kitchen while the hostess cleaned up the powder and when we returned to the living room their were footprints on the carpet!  Nobody had left the kitchen and there weren't any other people in the home at the time....We all knew at once who had come to the party.

My house is haunted. Not in a scary, eerie way, just that there is a parallel world going on here. I have actually seen a young boy in the house (not my kid!) who was floating in my daughter's room/doorway. I just happened to look that direction and he was looking right back at me. He seemed sad, or maybe he was in trouble. I looked right into his eyes. And I got this feeling that he was trying to communicate with me. My ex-husband was in the same room and didn't see or feel anything, though he thought I was nuts when my jaw dropped and I couldn't get any words out. My ex was in another part of the room and didn't see him. The ghost just faded out after a second or two, but as my brain was trying to process it, he was gone. He was a good-looking kid, shorter blond hair, brown eyes, white button-down, long-sleeved shirt, beige pants. No shoes or whatever--he looked like he was floating in the doorway. I think he didn't want my ex-husband to see him. The boy generally only makes himself known when I am alone. My present husband saw a glowing orb zooming and zig-zagging across that bedroom one night, 4 or 5 swipes, all the way across the room, over the bed where our daughters were sleeping. Needless to say, he was pretty freaked out by it. He has come to recognize the haunting as a necessary fact of living in this house. \n\nNo I am not a freak. I don't go out and look for strange things to happen. I saw this kid, I know I did. One night, I have heard footsteps come down the basement stairs and call, "Mom?" while I was doing laundry, and I yelled at my son to go back upstairs, that I already tucked him in for the night. NOBODY WAS THERE. I wasn't really paying attention to the kid coming down the stairs, just heard that familiar, "tha-dump dump" coming down the stairs and the "Mom?" It didn't really sound like my son but I was busy sorting laundry, not doing voice analysis. Anyway, I stopped sorting and went up the stairs, thinking my son was up at the top of the stairs. He wasn't. I was pretty upset as it had been a long day and the kids weren't minding and my husband was gone on a business trip. We live in an 80 year old house and the floors squeak. If my son had been out of bed, I would have heard him go up the stairs directly overhead. I called out for him and HE ANSWERED FROM HIS BED. I swear I heard somebody call me and jump down the stairs. That's when the hair stood up on the back of my neck. HE had visited me again. I sure wish I knew what he wanted.\n\nI have been advised to tell the boy to "go towards the light." I usually do this when he freaks me out. Sometimes things disappear and reappear right before my eyes. The house was built by a young couple in the late 1920s and they lived here until they died (she in 1964; he in 1974). There weren't any deaths in the house that I know of (they both died at the hospital). However, I do know their son had a serious car accident in 1965 and the wife and children were seriously injured--the one boy died. I suspect that is who I've seen. \n\nThis haunting is specific to our home. The people who lived here and played here may still be here. I think they like it here and (especially the old grandpa) are here protecting and taking care of the place. I like sharing the house with them, and I've told them so. The stove one time turned on by itself overnight. I let them know that is NOT acceptable. Sometimes in the morning on the weekends we smell food like pancakes, bacon, sausage. Just in the morning before we get up. Strange. That's okay--it smells good. They can make breakfast--just as long as they don't turn on the appliances again!

Yes, and that sprirt/image I see is real have been told by three people that my house is haunted.Aman had died there 2 months after his death I moved into the house,and before he had lived here,a Nun who had "fallen from grace" had died here also. So the "images" that I see I believe are them.Other than that,if it's nothing there then are nuts!!!

I do... I'll tell you about two experiences. One happened to my sister and one to me.\n\nThe first was my sister... She was going through a difficult time in her marraige, and was spending quite a bit of time at a local bar. One night she was just sitting by herself, and a young couple came up and started talking to her. The woman didn't give her name, but the man's name was John. They were very nice and they talked with her for a long time. A couple months later, my sister went to my parents' house. My parents collect old pictures of relatives and display these in their home. They had just received a new picture of my great-grandfather when he was a young man. When my sister saw the picture she was shocked. It was the young man from the bar! She had never met our great-grandfather and the only pictures she ever saw were from when he was very old, so she could not possibly have made this up. She believes that he and the woman (who my sister thinks is our great-grandmother) were sent to help her.  And yes, his name is John. \n\nThe second story is mine. I was staying at my sister's new house, which I had never been to. We were up late at night and she asked me if I wanted to see the basement. I immediately said NO! She asked why and I responded, "There are dead people there." She finally encouraged me to go downstairs and show her where I thought the dead people were. I walked to a wall and pointed... Without thinking, I said, "They are in there." At the time, I thought I was wrong because this was a solid brick wall, and I didn't understand how anybody could be "in" it. But I kept getting the sense that there were people in there. My sister told me that that wall had been put up after the house was built, and it sealed a small room. She said that the legend says that there WERE people buried in there. I didn't know any of this before, and I had never been to the house. So, something led me to that secret room!\n\nThose are my stories. I'm interested to read the other ones you get.

Yeppers. We have a little boy ghost. He's cooled down alot though. He used to run up and down our stairs and the hallway.\n\nAnd my mom had a dream and there was this little boy outside her window and she opened the window and took out the screen and was grabin his arm to help him in and his arm got all streatchy and when he got in her room his face got blurred and then my bro Eli called bc he said he just had this feeling that he had to call her. (He always does that when shes havin a bad dream) And then after that we heard running up and down the hallway and stairs. \n\nI'm afrade of the dark now because my brother closed my door and then i started hearing footsteps coming toward my bed and he was in his room. And i screamed and he came running into my room and i told him what happened. And now i sleep with my door open and the hallway light on.\n\nAnd we think we have a few other ghosts in our house.

Yes I have. I've seen a ghost.It was in my backyard. My mother also saw it, too. I only saw it once, she saw him several times. We were not stoned, drunk, or anything else. We were sitting on the back porch drinking iced tea. He was in the yard. Very creepy feeling altogether. \n\nI have also seen what can happen with a Ouija board. That's the main reason I don't mess with them anymore. \n\nSpirits, ghosts and such are not to be played with.

This is a true story too... when I was 13, our school had taken us out for an overnight trip and this incident occured on the first night of our stay. We were housed in a dormritory. However, since we were not ready to sleep yet (you know how these trips be), at the insistence of one of our mates, we decided to swap ghost stories. The requestor loved ghost stories but was also scared by them. Finally, one by one, we fell asleep.\n\nThe setting was right... dark night... strange place... wind howling... Our mate who had requested for the ghost stories awoke in the middle of the night, slightly disoriented. Suddenly she saw this pale figure in white walking towards her. In fright, she grabbed the hand of the person next to her... and let out a scream... for she had grabbed at nothing and the figure next to her was also in white.\n\nWhat actually happened was that one of our clasmates sleep walked. Her white night dress and the moonlight gave her a ghostly effect. Also, her neighbour had covered herself completely with a white bedsheet. The combined effect left our mate thinking she had seen two ghosts! \n\nThis story went down in the annals of our class as the funniest ghost story ever. Hope you enjoyed it too. :)

Oddly enough yes, but it freaked me out soo bad that by the time I could even mention it I failed to remember if anything freaky was going on in my life or in the house at that time.  What happened...\nMy girlfriend was staying over, we were in bed, all lights out.  I saw a young boy pass by the microwave(the clock was not visible when he passed) and disappear at the door to the living room.  He passed completely through the kitchen, approx. 10ft or so.  There was no one in my house it could have been, and to confirmed that I was not just merely hallucinating, right after the image vanished my girlfriend asked, "Did you see that?"  That all it took!  I was freaked out and freaked out a the mentioning of it for years.

i wouldnt call them ghosts rather spirits or energies. I use to live in an appartment block which use to be an Old County Infirmary- it use to be the place where they cared for leapers. And I can definately tell you they are real!\n\nLots of weird things happened, once I was watching tv alone and a knife fell off the draining board of its own accord. (there was no vibrations coming from any applicance at the time to have knocked it off). \nAnother time my self and my boyfriend we just nodding off to sleep and right up in the corner of the room a huge dark shadow appeared and swooped over the two of us and away over the headboard-the two of us saw it at the same time.\nAnd there was always thumbing and dragging noises coming from above us although we lived on the top floor.\n\nAnother thing that makes me believe in spirits is that my own mother died 2 years ago, and recently I was at home and heard her bed squeek as if some1 sat on it -thinking it was the dog jumping on or off i went to see there was no one there, all of a sudden I got an overwhelming smell of flowers (she was a keen gardener).\nAnd the most amazing of all is, I had a picture of my mother and myself hugging on new years 1999, I loved the picture as we both looked so happy, I kept the picture in my diary and never ever moved it-no1 else knew where the picture was let alone remember having the picture. \nOne evening I was feeling really down, it was a particular bad time in my life and I asked my mother for a sign that she was looking after me. I was busying myself by clearing out some cupboards that hadnt been touched in years and low and behold the exact picture feel out of an old book- i know it was da same picture as I had written on the back. I reckon it was my mothers way of telling me she's still here in some form still looking after me.

Yes. I lived with a ghost for about 9 months..All sorts of things happend during that period. \nThings would disappear and then end up in weird places.. or be placed right where I would have stepped on them had they been there "while " I was was looking for the items. \nThings would be all moved around and messed up..when they werent 5 min before. \nLights turning on by themselves then turning off again (a constant occuring thing)...doors opening up by themselves and closing. \nOnce I was reading a book and the ghost kept opening my bedroom door..I would get up and close it..and sit back down..a few minutes later the door would open once again..I got tired of playing after a while and left the door open and kept reading..then all of a sudden BAM! The door slammed shut...\nThere were flags in the house that were flapping like being in a strong wind..yet they were in a room without a breath of wind..\nThe list is endless...but eventually it became more agressive.. to the point of violence..There damage was being done to the house..inside.  It wasnt long after that part of it began, that I moved very far away, a different part of the country.. \nI have ended up back there three times since..none of which was my on doings but the way things turned out...\nSo yeah I have come across some strange things..That was just one incident of many that I have experienced in this life time ....so far ; )

Ghosts and the paranormal?

As a ghost hunter I would definately say yes.  As to a ghost story how about one that happened to me.  It it true and happened about 4 months ago.\n\nWe were at an abandoned house doing and investigation.  This houses history included murder, rape, child abuse and suicide (nice house huh?).  One of the members was being really obnoxious and cursing at the spirit there, calling him a coward, a skumbag ect.  A few minutes later we go dark (turn off all our lights) . We sat there for a few minutes silent in total darkness.  Then we heard a shoosh and the sound of a rock hitting the wall next to me.  We turned on our light immediately and looked around but didn't see any rocks, or any other item that it could of been thrown.
