"My house was built in 1904. It is a single family home, wood frame setting on a concrete block foundation. I have been living here for about 12 years. Of all the weird things that my siblings and me have seen or heard in this house this one event is my favorite. This happened to my brother. About ten years ago my brother and his best friends had started a garage band playing mostly "spanish rock", alternative music but in Spanish. His friends could only get together on Sunday afternoons. They would practice into the early evening, they would usually call it quits by 8 pm, this was the time I usually showed up and went to bed, cause I worked the graveyard shift. This happened in late fall, so the days were getting shorter, they had just finished a long session when the decision to head to someone else house came about. My brother handed his car keys to his buddy so they could load up the equipment, every one had filed out of the basement, the tricky part was that they needed to walk all the way to the back of the basement, up the back stairs, through the kitchen doorway down the hall into the living room and out into the front porch. Everyone was outside sitting in my brothers truck waiting for him. My brother was walking up the back stairs when he remembered that he had left his pancakes in a to go container sitting on a speaker in the basement. He made the decision to go back. Now the basement is not clean, with full sight lines, there had been partitions made, and the boiler and main heating unit are right smack in the middle. So after my brother walks back, he is about to retrieve his food container, when out of the corner of his eye he sees it. It is a shadowy figure, right at his peripheral vision, this feeling of dread and uneasiness washed over my brother. We had been taught that if you are in the presence of a spirit or ghost and you felt a bad vibe, to say quick prayer or to cuss at it. My brother chose the latter, he basically just told it "hey fck you, I don't have time for this sh-t".
My brother started to walk to the back of the basement and briskly up the stairs, closing doors and turning off lights as he was walking out, the last light switch is on the opposite side of the front door...luckily the door was open and the light from the street lamp was flooding the living room with its amber light. My brother said he felt something at his back, but at no point did he turn around, as he flicked the last switch the living room went dark, as the rest of the house. As he stepped out he pulled on the door closing it behind him, still holding his food container in one hand he jogged down the few porch steps, he walked towards the front gate...our house resides far from the main street, essentially having a large front yard but no rear garage. As he closed the gap between himself and his friend laden truck he kinda smiled and thought things over in his head, mad at himself for spooking out when there was no reason.
He climbed into the drivers side of the truck, putting on his seat belt and getting ready to pull out of the parking spot directly in front of the house, when one of his friends asked " Hey wait what about your sister, isn't she coming with us ?" My brother answered "what do you mean ? She went to work early tonight he is already gone, do you see her car anywhere ?"
The next question they asked "So then who was walking behind you when you were leaving the house ? "

Good one.
At the time this happened to me I was sharing a large bedroom with my two younger brothers. They had a bunk bed and I slept in a twin sized bed across the room with the doorway entrance at the foot of my bed. I was 15 at the time and had just went to bed. Both of my brothers were already asleep and I immediately crashed out as soon as my head hit the pillow. In the middle of the night I partially woke up when one of my brothers got out of bed and I assumed that he was going to the bathroom which was straight down the hall to the right of the entrance to our room. The house was pitch black as we generally didn't leave any lights on after everyone went to bed. The bathroom was at the end of the hall and next to it was the doorway to my parent's room. After my brother left the room I immediately fell back to sleep when all of a sudden I heard footsteps run into the room and felt someone jump into my bed with me, almost on top of me. I was struggling to pull the covers down to see what was going on and couldn't because that someone was trying to pull the covers up which were already over my head. I finally figured out it was my brother and screamed at him asking him what he was doing in my bed and he yelled back that the man was going to get him. I immediately thought that someone had broken into our house and my brother had come across him on the way to the bathroom and I started fighting even harder to get out from under the covers when my brother screamed, "There he is, there he is, he's going to grab your feet." I immediately pulled my feet up and went to jump out of the bed when the lights came on and my Dad came flying into the room. My Dad asked him what was going on and he explained that he went to the bathroom and had just turned off the light to head back to the bedroom and took a couple of steps down the hall before he stopped because he felt like there was someone behind him. He said that he turned around and standing in front of the doorway to the bathroom was a very tall shadow man. He thought he was seeing things at first and stood there for a few seconds before the shadow started moving towards him. That was it for him, he took off running down the hall and that was when he ran into the room and jumped in bed with me. My Dad thought he was either sleepwalking or just seeing things and told him to go back to bed. I told him that I believed him even though I didn't see anything because he had pulled the covers over my head. The reason I believed him is because the night before I had a dream where I had walked out of my bedroom into our dining room where there is a wall that you can slide out that hides the water heater and heater/AC unit. In my dream, I knew something was in that space, which is pretty big. I slid open the wall and standing there next to the heating unit was what looked like a very large shadow of a man standing there staring at me. I never told any of my family about my dream from that night. What was even stranger was that the day all of this started, I had gotten a Ouija board from a friend because she said she didn't want it anymore and that strange things happened in her house after she started playing with it. Needless to say, the next morning I threw the board in the trash. To this day, my brother swears on his life he saw a shadow man in the hallway.0 -

I have had plenty of spooky things. Here are just a few. The night my mom died when I was 16 everone was over the house. I had to get away so I went to my dad's room sat on the bed and just tried to take it all in. Mind you it was a hot july night with no breeze and my bangs had fallen into my eyes and then the left side was held back for about 15 seconds and then the right and that was repeated one more time and then I just felt this wierd feeling and it was gone.
About a year later just before my sister was about to graduate I had to get up early my dad was already gone my sister didn't need me to watch her kids just yet and I had laid down in my dad's room since he was gone for a small rest. I felt as if I was being pulled down into the bed and I had to struggle to pull myself out of that bed. I ran down the hall and as I did I looked back and saw a white ball of light chasing after me. I sat down in the reclining chair my mom use to always sleep in and I looke at my hands and they looked just like my mom's did when she was in the hospital.
This was witnessed by both of my sisters. My oldest sister left and I sat there scared out of my mind. My sister's dog who loved me so much wouldn't come near me until I begged him several times and he was shaking being near me. I had a strange feeling inside of me and from a ship clock that was next to me I heard a bunch of mumbleing. I said mom if this is you please stop it you are scaring me and it all stopped.
After school that day I met up with my boyfriend and he was laughing and had something he wanted to share with me I told him I had something to tell him also, but I let him go first. He said, you know my crazy aunt well she had this dream that you were laying in this bed and you felt like you being dragged in... and then he proceeded to describe everything that happened to me. Yes I would say that was spooky.0 -
This happened to my best friend when I was in High School. My friend was a very neat person. His room was never messy and everything was always in place.
He said that one night he was asleep and had a bad dream where there was some sort of creature in his closet that opened the door, grabbed his legs and was dragging him in to the closet. When he woke up he was laying on the floor with his legs pointing towards the closet and the closet door was open. He said that he also was holding on to the sheets like you would if you were trying to pull yourself up from something.
This freaked him out enough that he had a hard time sleeping for a week.0
