When I was fifteen, my grandmother whom I was very close with, and lived with died. Two weeks after her death, I dreamed that I walked down the steps and went to her and my grandfather's bedroom. When I opened the door, she was lying on the bed. She asked me how I was, as well as a few other family members and told me to never forget that she will always love me. Then she glowed and floated up and into the mirror. When I "woke" up I was looking towards my dresser with a mirror. I had two beds in my room. There was one in front of the dresser with the mirror. (if that makes sense) I was freaked out for weeks after that. I would sleep with my tv on.

i think my sister has the spirit following her. everytime she moves i swear its haunted! my daughter was in her apt one time, she was like maybe 3. she was standing at the gate talking. i said hey who are u talking to.. she said look at the light mommy... there was no light. i said what light she said right there mommy... its jessicas light. no clue who jessica is. as she said that, her hanging mirror on her wall was tilted sideways. super freaky. one morning she woke up, and ALL the pictures and things hanging on her wall were tilted. lots more stuff, but those are the freakiest!

Mine is not scary really, just a odd.

About 15 years ago my mom and I went to Savannah, GA for a vacation. As part of our trip we went on a Ghost Walk tour. Basically, they take you around the historical portion of the city and tell you the ghost stories. Of course they hit all the famous locations, including the home of Juliette Gordan Low, the woman who founded the US Girl Scouts. Not much haunting at this home, but for some reason the tour guide chose to make fun of Juliette's appearance. Well, as a former Girl Scout Leader and Girl Scout (respectively) my mom and I quickly protested what he said. Later when we got back to our hotel, we stopped by my car to get something and there was a Girl Scout Badge on the trunk of my car...Just sitting there. We asked at out hotel and those near out hotel and they have not one single Girl Scout registered at the hotels. We figured it was Juliette's way of thanking us. It was a Camping Badge, and that did not fit exactly with what happpened, but I figured it was the best she could do on short notice.

When I was a kid my parents had one of those lamps that you would touch to turn on and off. There were lots of morning where my brother and I would get chewed out for getting out of bed in the middle of the night and turning the lamp on and forgetting to turn it back off on our way back upstairs. (a parent's easiest way of explaining why a light is on when they know they didn't turn it on) The only issue was that we always swore up and down that we didn't get up and we hadn't touched the lamp. This went on for months until finally one night my mom and my brother and I were sitting in the living room and the lamp turned itself on and off and on again. It creeped my parents out enough that my mom got rid of the lamp. We kind of wrote it off as just something being up with the lamp until the new lamp we got (not a touch lamp) started turning itself on and off too. The lamp still turns itself on from time to time, but not nearly as often as it did when I was a kid.

I don't know if you could call it a 'ghost' story but the strangest thing happened...

When I was a little girl, probably 4ish, I had this crazy dream involving my family in this house and some creepy monster tried to kill us (blah blah blah). I told my Mom and she just gave me the its just a dream speech. I got nightmares frequently (still do actually...) so it wasn't uncommon for me to wake up and tell my mom some crazy dream.

One day my Mom comes into my room and starts screaming at me for scaring the heck out of my little sister (whom is 8 1/2 years younger than I). I was like what in heavens name are you yelling about. My Mom accused me of telling my little sister (who also has nightmares like crazy) about the dream I had when I was around 4. Weird part, my little sister was about 4 when it happened. Also, she was describing relatives she hadn't met yet, or she never got to really know because they passed when she was much younger.

It was very strange...Took YEARS for me to make my Mom believe me.

It took YEARS for my Mom to believe I didn't tell my little sister.

I work overnights in a group home, and through that I have a bunch of pretty weird little things that have happened. The most notable one for me though was in the early morning when I was walking down the hallway to get one of our ladies ready for work. As I was walking, I suddenly heard a male voice whisper my name in my right ear like he was standing right next to me. I stopped, turned around, and saw no one there. No one else was around at all and it wasn't a voice I recognized. It was pretty eerie.

My grandparent's house is 100% occupied by spirits! I remember a couple years ago going to sleep in my room (I live with them) and then at about 2:30 AM, hearing clashing pans, glass breaking, TV turning on and off. My bedroom door was closed and I saw the lights go on and off about three times from under the door.

My grandparents totally know, so when my half-brothers/sisters come over, I always tell them there are ghosts here and to not act like you're scared because they might try to mess with you. Then my grandma tells them I'm lying and gives me a dirty look hahaha.
Yeah, but I love them there. They're really fun to have in a home.

Every night I sit out in the living room until like 4 AM (I have insomnia) and they're always around me. I feel them. Like when someone walks in a room, you can feel their energy? That's what it's like. Sometimes I hear whispers, I'M NOT PSYCHO! Haha. But yeah.

When ghosts go to bed at night, they check under their bed for me.

Since we've moved into this house, I catch "movements" out of the corner of my eyes here all the time. No matter the room or time of day.

Wish I could catch them cleaning. :laugh:

That would be great! hahaa!

When I was in high school, I had a room with my bed against a wall, then a small side table that was round. The side table had a linen on top, then a class top on top of the linen. On top of that were my alarm clock, lamp, and a book.

For some reason, I woke up in the middle of the night (not sure why, there wasn't a noise or anything) and I look over and my side table is completely upside down. not knocked over, just upside down, with the linen and glass still in place (impossible). And then my clock, lamp, and book where all neatly in a line.

I was almost frozen, I didnt' know what to do, I couldn't move, I forced myself to sleep.

When I woke up, it was all back to normal.

So many, I was just talking to an MFP'er about this today!

In college I used to wake up to the face of a girl near my bed, EVERY night i pushed my chair under my desk (which was under my lofted bed) and there she would be. apparently a girl had died in the building before it was a dorm room.

I always hear my great grandmother when I'm at my family farm, she died there and I hear her all the time in her room (writing letters, grocery lists). Even as a kid I never slept there because it felt occupied. It wasn't until I was older that I found out she died in there.

I loooooveee reading these stories! I get goosebumps all over!

I've only had an experience when I was younger, and it could have just been overactive imaginations. I was sleeping over at my best friend's house and we were talking about ghosts. Her house has several spirits, all of them friendly and helpful to her family if I remember correctly. Anyway, we were sitting on her bed with our legs over the edge, talking about pets that had died. At one point, we both felt something like a cat had rubbed against our legs. Neadless to say, mine stayed on top of the bed from that point on! :laugh:
