Flamingly Real Life Poltergeist Activity We Extinguished - by Rona from Bedfordshire UK

My true ghost story entails the real life poltergeist activity from the ghost of a burning man. I was called in a panic by my daughters best friend to visit her and her big sister's house haunting.

The interesting and humorous part for me was my daughter’s friends big sister (who owned the house) used to poohoo my work as a psychic medium, saying she did not believe in such things as spirit, the afterlife, ghosts and poltergeists. Boy was she in for a treat – this one was on fire!

She had returned home and tried to enter her kitchen but could not get into her kitchen. Her large fridge-freezer had been placed across the door. But moved by who or what? When she finally got into her kitchen the windows were shut and there was no other entry or exit other than the door she entered the kitchen through. Around the same time her little four year old girl had been waking up at night with nightmares.

"Help we have some real life poltergeist activity" Well, she was asking me to help, so myself and my friend (who is used to do house blessings) went to see what we could do for her.

We were a little apprehensive and wondered if this was real life poltergeist activity, but we were fully heartened by our faith in our spiritual protections. First we went to the little girl’s room armed with white candles and a prayer as most of this spooky activity took place there. (the little girl’s sudden nightmares and even with the central heating full on the room was still freezing - a noticeable temperature drop).

We tuned in and I saw a young man backing out of the room, I said he has left this room and gone downstairs. The next minute my own daughter flew up the stairs with an ashen face, "it’s lifting the dining table up in the air" she screamed!, scared half out of her wits. The friend's older brother who was sitting with her downstairs was so shocked he had bolted from the house.

Anyway my friend and I went downstairs and continued calmly to bless and pray in every room of the home, asking the young man to go to the light as he should not be there. My friend also picked up a house fire around this young man, which was interesting because afterward the older sister said her little girl had awoken saying "mummy there is a man on fire in my room" night after night.

The poor young man had died in the fire and had lost his way. The good news is the blessing worked, and the room temperature returned to normal and the little girl’s nightmares ceased!

Many of us witnessed this real life poltergeist activity. You will always find truth is stranger than fiction!

Locked Eyes With Ghost -by Diane (Wellington, Fl. USA)
I was on a trip in another city and stopped at a little store to get a soda. While in the car, I noticed a man coming out of the store. He looked exactly like my ex-father-in-law Joe. I haven't seen this man for over twenty years. We both stared and each other, like, “what are you doing here”? We didn't speak, and we just went on our way. I kept thinking about him all the way home. It was just so strange, especially that stare, when we just locked eyes. It really shook me. Later that night I received a call from my ex-husband telling me that Joe, his father had passed away that afternoon. I was just dumbfounded. Was it really him?

Real Photograph of Ghosts?

My First Paranormal Experience - by Shreena Perez-Doi (Waiane HI, US)
I was going through a lot of stuff time I had my first paranormal experience. I had recently left my boyfriend of eleven years for the first time ever. I felt lost but I found it in me to keep my head high and get through it. I went out with my friends a lot and was having the time of my life because I never had any fun in my relationship. So, one day I was at my mother’s house, and I was taking pictures of myself. Later when I scanned through my images, I found this. I don’t feel any harm from the photo I just want to know who that is and what is it that they want because there are so many of them. (PS. Thanks for making this "tell me a ghost story" section available.)

Apparition From Past - by Penelope Ghias (Plaistow London)
I looked towards the stairs and to my surprise I saw an old man, he watched me and I him. As he walked up the stairs his hands were on the banister for balance. He was wearing a maroon woollen top and light brownish trousers, he smiled at me then he vanished. Later I saw my next-door neighbour and asked her who had lived there before. She said a lot of different people. I then described a person, and she said you couldn’t have seen him he’s been dead for years. She said he always wore those clothes as they were his favourite.

Homeless Ghost - by James Howlett (London, UK)
During the 2nd World War, the flats we lived in got bombed and were boarded up. After the war the flats were un-boarded so they could be rebuilt for people to live in again. When they started removing the boards from the windows of the flats, they found the bodies of two homeless men. I lived there in the 1980’s. On one occasion when I was about to leave a room the door swung open and standing in front of me was the shadowy figure of the ghost of one of the homeless men. Although it was a shock at the time, there was never any negativity.

• Haunting In My Home - by: Starr.  I lived in a house where the previous owner died in the bathroom. I remember getting up in the night to go and opened the door and there he was. I only saw this ghost once. 

Ghostly Baby Monitor - by Megan (Saginaw MI)
This is one of the most scary ghost stories I have to share. We have a baby monitor for our daughter. When it’s on we hear a ghost talking to my daughter. We have both been hearing a female voice coming through the baby monitor. We hear a woman talking to my daughter in a low voice. Sometimes, my boyfriend also sees the shadow of someone walking around.

• RE: Ghostly Baby Monitor by: Amanda.  I have a similar story. When my son was 10 months old My husband awoke one night to a woman singing him a muted lullaby over the airwaves. We could tell from her voice that she was elderly and that she had a distinct German accent. I sensed her presence and I saw from her eyes as she reached down and touched him on his back - even though I was in the master bedroom on the first floor. Without understanding or thinking that her touch would disturb him-as it now was ice cold to his senses, he cried. Alarmed she stopped singing, looked around the room sadly, and disappeared. She interacted with the children often over the years. I later learned she was the owner of the home just before us. I saw her shadow as she walked off to afternoon mass as she did every day in life.

Ghost Of Love Passed - by Jo (Scotland)
I had lost my first love and father to my twin boys. One day where I was really angry and upset with myself and him after reading a letter of his to my boys. I remember sitting heartbroken, shouting at him, and hating myself and him. I could feel him touching my leg, arm and face and I remember telling him “Don't you dare touch me. Just go away leave me alone”. That night I found it hard to sleep although I did end up falling asleep. It was like sleeping but I knew I was awake too. I heard a voice say, “Joanne can you hear me?” I remember nodding yes. I knew this voice it was my love. Then he says, “Joanne can you see me?” Before I could say anything, it was like he just sat right in front of my face, so close I could see is eyes, nose and lips. He was appearing in a pure glow of mist. Then I woke up feeling weird all day.

Who Let The Ghost In? - by Charitie (NY)
As I went out to my garage to take the dog out for a walk my husband opened the overhead door to check out the snow blower. As he opened the door, a man walked in quickly, he was transparent. He was wearing a Carhartt jacket, blue jeans and he stopped and spooked the heck out of us. He said as he pointed to me, "I know you can see ghosts because you looked right at me when I came in". He said, "I need you to help me out", and then his voice started fading as he started fading on me, and he spoke once again saying "they keep moving my body on me, help me find it, so I can go home". I then saw a blur moving out of the garage from where he came from, like he was walking out. Then everything went back to normal.

Afghan Hound and Ghost - by: Anonymous
I moved from the city to a rural mountain area with my Afghan Hound, Asar, and my 6 year old daughter. Not long at all after settling in, Asar would jump upon my bed (which he was not allowed to do) and start barking wildly out the window to the front porch as if someone had arrived. You could hear footsteps or the sound of someone coming up the steps onto the porch. But... no one was there! This happened every day at 5pm. It was becoming so un-nerving that I went to a friend for advice regarding what to do about it. Hence, I was told to speak with the spirit regarding their previous passing, to help them understand that they no longer possessed a body and that it was OK for them to turn towards the light and leave. It worked! First time out! About a year later, I was moving out. Paying my final rent to my neighbor who lived nearby, we started chatting and I mentioned my experience upon moving into the haunted house. He told me that the "Old Lady" who was known to have been living there for many years, had brought her firewood in for the night every evening about 5pm and that she had fallen one evening, perhaps a heart attack, and she froze to death right there at those steps.
