..here's one that happened to me...

..we were staying in an old cottage in Devon with my brother and his wife...my son was only a toddler at the time...he was a really placid child and hardly ever cried, but for some reason he seemed very unsettled as soon as we got there...he was upset the whole time, yet he didn't seem ill....

..the part where we slept in was a newer extension to the building..but the original cottage was used as a snooker/pool/games room and my brother's bedroom was near that....all through the night, my brother would hear the clacking of the pool balls...he kept going to check if someone was playing but there was nobody there....

...sounds funny and not very sinister..but it was strange...

Oh creepy Ammi :/

At my old house I remember waking up randomly in the middle of the night and seeing a little boy sitting on the floor watching my TV. I remember jumping up only to see that he had vanished so I put that one down to being half asleep.

There was also a time when I had two friends around and we kept hearing banging upstairs and when we went to look a crate randomly fell down the stairs that freaked us out.

The scariest one though happened ine night when I was about to go to bed, I walked up the stairs in darkness and I looked up to the landing and it was weird to explain but I saw a dark shape that was darker then the rest of the darkness? Then I felt a gust and felt something pushing me backwards when I was halfay up the stairs. I just bolted to my room after that.

I don't believe in things that go bump in the night though, all but one of these events happened late at night when I was alone so I contribute them to being tired.

A less paranormal (but by no means less scary) event happened in this house a few years back. I was up late at night and had just made myself some toast when I came back downstairs to return the plate, I went up to the sink and looked out of the kitchen window to see some random man in a freaky mask looking right back at me. I have never been so freaked out in my life, in those first few milliseconds I honestly thought I was living my childhood nightmares. To this day I rarely look out the back windows at night.

No one believes me to this day apart from the people who were there.

Meth is a hell of a drug

I love ghost and paranormal stories!

I think we have someone in our house. My son who is 2 tells me about a man who comes into his room when I am downstairs. He said he stands on his shelf but is not scared of him. They say children are more susceptible to these things.

[King Gizzard]

This is more an embarressing story but when I went camping with my school and you know they sometimes have portacabin showers

well I went to use one because it was 'vacant', opened the door and there was my (female) teacher naked scrubbing herself down and she screamed like she was being murdered

not my fault, you didn't lock the bloody door

a few years ago i worked in a all girls private school as a cleaner. it used to be an orphanage back in the 1960,s ran by nuns and it was also an old peoples home before becoming a school. anyway during the summer the cleaners would go in to scrub walls etc, there was 4 of us and the caretaker. one day me and another cleaner gary had just started work and he said we wil have a cuppa before we start before the others get here. as we walked past the assembly hall (which used to be a church) we heard a ladies voice singing 4 notes la, la, la la. i looked @ gary and he looked @ me and we both asked if the other had heard that? i said oh it will be the other cleaners, they will be in by now. so we went to the main door and the other cleaners were just walking down the drive so no way cud it have been them. we told the caretaker and he didnt believe it anything like that and said a teacher had been in, we made him ring the teacher and she had been in but had left 10 mins before we even got in so it wasnt her. we ended up calling the voice lady la la. there was various other things happened whilst i was there always during the school holidays when nobody was in. 4 of us heard violins playing once that was creepy. i often heard my name being called when i was hoovering. i just got used to it by the time i left.

..very creepy Mizzy..they probably wanted you to switch the hoover off because you were disturbing their choir practice..
