YOUR STORIES December 27, 2009 Larissa from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada: Hi I live in Hamilton and I've had some very strange things happen to me. I live in a relatively old house, one of the thing I remember the most was one night I was on my computer, music on, and the door was shut. I suddenly could hear something singing some where close to the door, so i turned the music down and I could hear it still. I opened the door and it stopped, so I closed the door and turned the music back on and then I heard it again but louder. So I turned the music off and opened the door and it stopped once more, so I closed the door and was telling my friends something weird was going on and then I heard the singing right there at the door, it was so loud to. The time of night was about 2:30am so I was freaked out and when i opened the door it stopped. I decided to go to bed and that maybe I was just tired...I got the feeling that something was standing at the edge of my bed staring down at me. I got up and went to my parents room to tell them what was going on and I stayed there with them and still felt like something was staring down at me. it's strange when a person of 19 stays in their parents room and hasnt since she was 6 because of a ghost. Thats one of my most scariest encounters I have ever had in my house
December 21, 2009 Daniel from Moose Creek, Ontario, Canada: After visiting with some friends late on night i decided to walk home. As I approached a bridge, I heard someone splashing in the water. but it didn't dawn on me that it was in the middle of winter, and the water was frozen over. I kept walking along, when I noticed that for every step I took someone or something was taking the same step. I got frightened and started to run. When I noticed that it was running with me. I turned around really quick to see if i could see someone behind me, and I noticed their was no one to be found. I mustered up enough courage to continue. got inside my home relieved to of gotten home. When I heard a knock upon the door, I turned on the porch light to find no one standing there, and when I looked at the fresh fallen snow there was only one set of footprints....mine. December 9, 2009 Nick from St. Catherines, Ontario, Canada: When i was very young in my crib when my mom heard me crying and screaming. So my mom came up to check on me and nothing was there but it was very cold. To this day it still gives me the creeps! but the energy was beleved to be my grandmother! I have another story when i was in grimsby out of the blue I said i see your grandma mommy. now im very interested in paranormal. November 24, 2009 Robert from London, Ontario, Canada: A few years back while attending a Civil War Re enactment in Perryville. Kentucky myself and my friend had a strange encounter. We were actually camped on the Battlefield site for the weekend. On the Friday night it was very calm and humid with no breeze at all in the air. We sleep in a period reproduction canvass A frame tent. After calling it a night and getting into our cots we decided to have a nite cap and a cigar before lights out. The tent flaps were hanging limp at the front of the tent. We were chatting about the fact we were camped right where all the action took place 145 years ago. Suddenly the right side tent flap swung open and slapped around on the outside of my tent which startled us both. No one could be seen and I called out who is there. There was no response and my friend said what the hell is going on there is no breeze out there. I called out again who is there and again no response. I began to get up out of my cot to go outside when the tent flap came back down with the same force it opened. The odd part of all of this was when the flap came down it stopped directly at the upright tent pole and did not swing past it as canvas should do with that much force. I proceeded to go outside but the camp was all quiet with not a soul in sight. Late in the evening I was awoken by a man outside calling out " Horse loose. Horse loose. Then the sounds of someone putting a bridle on a horse. There were no horses at the event whatsoever. After looking outside the tent once again there was nothing. We still talk about this to this day as it shook us both up. What if anything could cause this. Makes me wonder.
November 6, 2009 Jeff from Peterborough, Ontario, Canada: Ever since I was young I have strange happenings occur with me, I tell people but everyone always think your telling stories. But while living in may last house I had a couple of things happen to me and one my wife saw with her own eyes. I will explain how it started. I worked nights and would sleep during the day. I went downstairs to our bedroom and hopped into bed. Sometimes my wife would come down and ask where something was, she would touch my leg to get my attention. But this morning I was just about to fall alseep and I felt my blanket move a bit and what felt like a hand touch my lower leg. As I opened my eyes I asked my wife what she wanted, but realized no one was there. Figuring I was tired and imagined it I went to sleep. I told everyone as a light story and they all laughed it off. Then on day while talking with my wife facing each other in the kitchen, I got pushed by somehting unseen back about 1-1/2 to 2 feet backwards into the wall, as if someone was trying to pass me into the livingroom. My wife asked what happened, looking puzzled, I told her and she almost fainted. Other occurances happened where would hear my name being called and felt like someone was in the room with me when there was not. We have since moved from that house and nothing has happened until a few weeks ago when I felt something grab my shoulder and pull me back as I dropped a heavy glass when doing dishes, pictures of what appear to be fingers coming over my shoulder were taken and I posted them to this site. Take a look...
September 23, 2009 Darrell from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada: We just moved in to Winnipeg, this one happened just west of here. We were living in St. Francois Xavier, Manitoba, right in the village. The town and area is rich in history. From having the first manufacturing facility (making Red River carts), home to Cuthbert Grant, to the legend of the White Horse. Where the Grey Nuns of the Roman Catholic church first took up residence for 118 years. Loads and loads of history .... My wife and I took regular walks in the evening, never at the same time, and we varied our routes (most times, it just happened that way). One evening a couple years back, we were out for our walk. As we lived a few hundred yards past the church, of course we passed it, and its cemetery. Our return trip this time had us walking back past the church about half an hour past sundown. Talking all as normal of the days happenings, the kids, news items and all, we ran out of topics for a bit. As we passed the edge of the cemetery border, we looked at each other and asked 'Did you feel someone walking with us'. We talked about what we both felt and, it was nothing fearful, shameful, childish or anything of the sorts. It was a comforting feeling almost, but someone was walking in between and just behind a bit looking over our shoulder, but with us. Who was it - we're not sure, but we definitely both felt their presence. My wife would not walk past the church after sundown again, and I could sense an eerie feeling from her even driving past. I however, continued to walk past regardless of the time, or sunlight condition. Mind you, after sunset, I always paid my dues, and wished whoever a good night. We had other occurrences in the house we lived in while we were in St. Francois Xavier. Children's electronic toys turning on, moving enough to displace the plastic beads in the toy (when the toy hadn't been touched for days and nobody was moving or bouncing on the floor). Toys in the toy box turning on when the kids have been in bed for a couple hours (and the switches were off, batteries full ...). These were childlike in their actions. There was even a presence of an adult, nobody overbearing, just overlooking things. It didn't bother us. We're open minded enough to be able to accept that if there are 'spirits', that they are there and exist. And if it was nothing more than short-circuits in our own hard wiring, then so be it. But it was as I mentioned, and is as much as I can recall without stretching the memory cells. For the most, I found it fun, exciting, rewarding, and at the same time - somehow settling. And on those days at home when the rest of the family was out somewhere or gone for the night, for some inexplicable reason, I never felt alone or had that empty feeling. Maybe it was our guest(s), or maybe I was just real comfortable in our place. I somehow prefer the former, but ... reserve judgment. I know there is a local historical club. Unfortunately I never did contact them to see if other events may have been reported. The only one I know of is the old nunnery that is reported to have its share of visitors. Maybe one day I will call and find out. But until then, I'm guessing there's a few more visitors out there.
September 23, 2009 Darrell from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada: When we got married, my grandmother (dads mom) gave us a nice microwave. That was grandma's gift, and she made sure the kids received a good one too. Anyhow, it works great, always did (aside of us blowing the inline fuse - but that was our fault). Anyhow, grandma passed away at the young age of 92. On the day of her passing, the light inside the microwave stopped working. Ok we thought - it's been at least 10 years, light bulbs don't last forever, plus, on this day - coincidental happening. It wasn't ..... On the day of her funeral, the light started working again - it lasted for 2 days before the light retired for good. The microwave continues to work great, although put to rest in storage as the house we purchased has a newer built-in unit. But I just can't give-up grandma's microwave. Coincidence - you tell yourself your answer - we know ours.
September 16, 2009 Martin from M'Chigeeng, Ontario, Canada: Do you believe in Fireballs? I live on a First Nation Reserve on Manitoulin Island. This peculiar thing happened while I was outside during the night .It was nearing midnight and I was babysitting my younger brother while mother went out for the night with her friends. I was minding my own business and thought that I would sit out in front of the house because it was a Friday. Well, the weekends get really rowdy on this reserve. I was looking across the road towards my neighbor's house when about 10 feet above the ground behind the hydro post, obscured a bit by the trees a ball of whitish/blue light was floating in a calming way. I felt if I took my eyes off the light the strange light would disappear. When I blinked it did. So naturally I thought it was the reflection from an oncoming car's headlight reflecting off my glasses, but there was no cars around. I tried to get the same effect by moving my head about and body to get a certain angle but nothing seemed to work. I felt a bit scared and a little bit nervous. Strange things happened after that. People were beginning to yell and scream because at the time I did not know my friend got beaten up so bad that the ambulance and police got called. I heard the mother crying out for her baby boy, who is of legal age. All that night was just hectic for the reserve of M'Chigeeng. In my Ojibwe culture fireballs represent bad medicine and also bad spirits. Some people practice these dark medicines, which are supposed to be used for good things and not against others.
September 10, 2009 Daniel from Welland, Ontario, Canada: Way too long to go into the whole thing, but here is an outline. At 4 years old I saw a ghost walk out of my kitchen, part of him going through the frame of the kitchen door and then part of him going through the frame of the master bedroom door. My mother was just walking me to my room for bed at the time. She laid me down and when she kissed me goodnight, I grabbed her face and wouldn't let go I was terrified. She has scars on her face to this day-33 years later. Many odd things happened through the next 15 years that I lived in that house, to many to list. But I moved out when I was 19 and the house was sold. About 10 years later I was invited to stay with a friend of mine that happened to live across the street from my old house. As I sat on the porch looking across at my old home, I noticed a car pull up. A man got out and began to walk up the steps. I did a double take! It was the ghost that I saw 25 years earlier when I was 4. I struggled as I watched him go into the house. I asked my new roommate about the neighbor. She said he was a good guy and to go over and talk to him. So I did. After a short conversation we realized that the path that I had seen him walk when I was 4 years old is now actually the way that those door frames are set up. And he informed of seeing a little boy (me) walking through the house-through door frames (the old ones that don't exist anymore since they renovated). We became friends for a short time and then life took me elsewhere. But I have never even been able to define what the experience is. Seeing a man from the future doing things that hadn't happened yet. And him in turn seeing a boy from the past doing what he always did. September 3, 2009 Kim from Toronto, Ontario, Canada: Hi there I live in Toronto Ontario Canada and I work in a very busy veterinary hospital. There is a woman that still works in the clinic that use to live in the clinic and her grandmother lived and died there. I have seen things that are very similar to the grandmother and other people that may be here still. there are animal images as well and its creepy. Just wondered if you are willing to come and investigate this location. I would love it if you would. August 20, 2009 Sarah from Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada: I was about 10 years old (3 years ago) and I had been woken up to the sound of glass or a window being shattered, I went to go up to check on what it was, but when I sat up I look and my bedroom door was wide open, and the hallway was pitch black, but I could clearly see a women's figure standing there I couldn't see any features what so ever, all I could see was a pure white women's figure. The only thing I could see, was her hair, it was some where past shoulder length, she looking around 5 ft 6, and her clothes looked like the old pioneer clothes, a blouse, skirt, and apron, but she had no face. Ever since I saw the women I constantly hear laughter, high heels on a wood or concrete floor, doors slamming shut, and when ever I am in a room, the lights in that room will flicker on and off about 1-5 times separately, even when no one else is in the room or not, all I know is that I really want this thing out... Oh and also when ever I try to talk to it I start getting a sharp pain in my head and my back, and the pain is so bad that I start crying... thing is I feel as if I am being like "personally haunted" because no one else in the family seems to have any thing happen. It creeps me out and pisses me off.... August 9, 2009 John:
My sister is having weird
experiences in her apartment. she has 4 kids and has
experienced unexplained things. this all started when the first child
was 2 and could talk. most nights she wakes up to her children screaming
that people are in their room and pulling off their blankets but nothing
is ever found. the first child has been herd over baby monitors talking
to people that were never their and hearing noises in the middle of the
night. the second kid of hers has told her that he talks to invisible
people and over her knew video baby monitor she has seen hands and faces
touching her second youngest son in the middle of the night. she has had
some experiences before as well. for example one night she woke up to
her hand limp in mid air and she couldn't put it down. doors slam shut
and blankets pulled off. she has seen full-body apparitions and even i
had seen full-body apparitions over the baby monitor. one time as well
she was up laying in bed and she herd a crash and footsteps in the
basement she got her boyfriend to look but nothing was found and her
kids where asleep. also she has seen a young black haired boy that looks
like he oldest sun around the house that just disappears. she is
confused but believes no harm is meant by these actions. August 9, 2009 Kim from Hamilton, Ontario: I have always been interested in the paranormal and I've had experiences which I consider outside of everyday ordinary life. Over the years I have heard my name called at times when no one was around and other times when others in the area would say it wasn't them. In 1980 I saw my grandfathers image standing outside a window. There was another instance when a door in the house burst open and the house became extremely cold. I am writing to you more about the things that are happening lately and they are somewhat frequent. Since moving about 3 years ago we have the smell of cigarette smoke in our house. No one in the house smokes and no one who has visited has smoked inside our home. We had 1 guest once who came over and smoked outside. He wasn't in the house at all during his visit. The smell is not constant and it seems only to be in the family room or office (computer room) in the basement. We have also had the taps in the basement bathroom and basement kitchen turn on by themselves. not full but not just a trickle either. We are not afraid and we feel this may be a family member but we are not sure and at times we feel like we are crazy. Many times I feel I'm being watched and I could swear I see a figure out of the corner of my eye and of course when I look there is nothing there. Are these paranormal type occurrences?
August 7, 2009 TJ from Barrie, Ontario: well I was 2 years old and my neighbour's wife just died and said that she would say good-bye to everybody that she knew. I was down stairs at the time and I came upstairs and asked my mom who was the lady downstairs and she just froze because she knew it was our neighbours ghost.
July 28, 2009 Maria from Chatham, Ontario:
Well I've got a couple of stories
to tell you...the first one is when I lived in Toronto and I got a phone
call from my sister telling me her neighbour/good friend of hers hung
himself in his garage and her boyfriend had found him. I had only met
her friend once. She was very upset and said that his parents gave her
the keys to his house to feed his cats. I told her I would be there for
her on the weekend. Before the weekend came I started getting very upset
about the suicide and kept seeing an image of a man wearing a blue plaid
shirt, jean, and light brown work boots. It was like I was in a dream
state but fully awake. When I got to my sister's place we went to feed
his cats suddenly I had this incredible force to look everywhere in her
neighbour's house....I didn't know what I was looking for. His house
consisted of a main floor and basement. I didn't once want to look in
his basement but I had to look everywhere else.....it came to the point
that I even looked into his fridge....then as I shut the fridge door I
saw it. He had written on a note board "Sorry". I asked my sister if she
every saw the message before and she said no. She had already been there
a dozen of times to feed the cats before I went. I later asked her to
ask her boyfriend what her neighbour was wearing the night he hung
himself...it was exactly what I had seen....a blue plaid shirt, jean and
light brown work boots.
June 12, 2009 Tina from Rockland, Ontario: About 6 months ago, i was getting ready for bed, my husband was already in bed sleeping. I was in the washroom brushing my teeth, when done i opened the adjoining door to our room and stopped in my tracks. A little boy, about 3 or 4 was standing on the other side of the bed where my husband sleeps and he was gazing at the green blinking light of his cell phone as it charged on the night stand. The little boy looked up startled turned and vanished. I haven't seen him since. I live close to a graveyard, and i wonder if this is where my visitors are coming from.
April 30, 2009 Cheryl from Cobden, Ontario:
Nine years ago, we moved to
Pembroke from Ottawa. We purchased a home on Ellis Avenue. It always
had an odd feel to it, but, it was home. One night, I was in bed when I
felt my husband cuddle up next to me, I rolled over only to discover I
was alone in the bed. This happened on numerous occasions. Also, while
doing dishes, I would feel someone come up and hug me, it was creepy.
March 18th, 2009 Tina from Rockland, Ontario:
February 9th 2009 Billy from Kirkland Lake, Ontario:
When I was younger, I lived in
Kirkland Lake, Ontario.I lived in an apartment on wood st which included
the basement. In this apartment, I believe there was more then 1 ghost.
November 4, 2008 Amanda from Barry's Bay, Ontario: Well my story is about Buck Hill. I have been there a few times and had the pleasure of seeing the ghost. That story starts out like this. Me and a bunch of my cousins decided that we wanted to go see the ghost, so we all jumped into 2 separate cars and went on our way we got up there at about 11:30. We flicked our lights and my one cousin screamed. We waited and at about 12:oo am, we seen a green ball of light zigzagging through the bush on the right hand side, then it disappeared and a few seconds later. We seen another light at the bottom of the hill that looked like a ball of flame. It got closer and closer then all of a sudden it disappeared after a few seconds. We noticed that the orange light was a few feet infront of the car and then the next thing we knew there was a guy standing infront of the car holding a lantern, and if that wasn't scary enough, we could also see through him! We freaked out and left and one other thing is it was all girls that went up there. Now this happened maybe 3 years ago on thanksgiving weekend and I have been up there a few times and seen nothing but I was up there Halloween night with my boyfriend and a few other friends. We didn't really see anything. We seen a few lights that were explainable but we all had an eerie feeling. I handed my boyfriend my digital camera and he started taking pictures. The first few pictures didn't show anything but then we got 2-3 pictures with a strange ball of light coming from behind us the ball of light was green, blue, purple, orange, and a white light that is strange in the middle of this ball. and on another picture we got a orange dot in the middle of the camera but when you zoom in it looks like a flame. Now you guys can say whatever you want about these pictures but the weird thing is is that these pictures were taken from behind where there are no other lights it's just pitch black. I will also try and post the pictures on your site.
October 24, 2008 Mich from Deep River, Ontario: This is about my 13 year old daughter. She's a really good kid, but one day she says that someone keeps talking to her when she's busy doing something. None is around, but this disturbs her. She says the voice(s) isn't mean or anything. But she does say they keep talking to her. What's up with that. She hasn't mentioned them in awhile.
October 10, 2008 Lisa Maria from Montreal, Quebec: This story took place a couple of months ago while I was preparing for bed. We had a party during the day for my husband's birthday, and I had bought some balloons to decorate our house. Of these balloons, I purchased two balloons, blue and yellow, that were filled with helium. These balloons were tied to a chair and were not removed. The other balloons hung on the walls using hair static. Once everyone left our home, my husband and I were tired and retired for the evening in our bedroom. The helium-filled balloons were still tied on the kitchen chairs where they had been left all day. During the night, roughly 1 am, I woke up suddenly because I felt something rub against my right cheek ( I was asleep on my stomach with my pillow tucked over my left arm). I felt a balloon that was floating right next to me. I knew it was a balloon because as I brushed my cheek where the balloon touched me, it bounced off my hand. I got out of bed, turned on the light, and walked to re-tie the balloon to the kitchen chair, where the other one was also still tied. I was a little stunned, and wondered how the balloon managed to enter our bedroom ( which is situated on the same floor as the kitchen, but you have to a corner to get into our bedroom). I returned to bed and lay down on my back with my head facing the ceiling. I suddenly heard my name whispered by a voice unknown to me. I looked up and saw the apparition of a child, short, dark hair. The child's face was buried in its arms and had its back towards me. It looked as though the child was counting during a game of hide and seek. As I slowly elevated myself, the apparition disappeared. I have heard my name being called by the voice twice after this episode, then it stopped. I have many experiences such as these, which also include the prediction of my sister-in-law's miscarriage to smelling flowers at work before a death occurs.
September 2, 2008 Keri from Edmonton, Alberta: ok here it goes... my husband my 2 children and my self moved into this house about 2 years... almost from day i started feeling something around me.. the first encounter was i heard a little childs' voice saying "mommy can you come here" i of course answered and my husband asked me who i was talking to i said my son and then i realized my kids were in school.. i was very upset by this. Then we started to hear banging and thumping now and again.. My next encounter was it was about 5 am and my husband was upstairs gettin ready for work i was a sleep still my dog was on my bed with me when he started to growl i rolled over to see what was up and he was staring at the wall when i looked over there was misty figure flowing beside my bed.. i ran up stairs with the dog in tow and started crying and shaking i wouldn't go back down stairs to my room by myself again for a few days. Another major time we encounter our ghost was last christmas my in laws came here to visit us and my father in law and my husband were sitting at the kitchen table and a can started moving across and around the table! We tried to see if we could recreate what just happened to see if someone was leaning on the table or some thing but we couldn't even get the can to move! DURING the past few months other small things happen cupboards open or things go missing stereos or TV turn on. A couple of weeks ago i was about to walk into my kitchen and my son was coming up the stairs and the FRIDGE started to rock back and forth. Then last night my husband i were sitting in the living room watching tv with no lights on they had not been on all day!! when one light bulb exploded and shattered all over the living room and another one turned pure white the other 2 lights were fine. this is a ceiling fan lite fixture. i ll keep you updated on our next sightings And if anyone has any ideas on how to deal with this please let me know . thanks keri
August 30, 2008 Doug from London, Ontario: I was about 7 years old. In bed no lights and door closed. Woke to and white light about 2 inches on my wall. My mom came in and we went to her room. The round light follows us. Dad could not be woken up. Later that night my mom woke up early to make dads breakfast and the hall was dark. I told mom someone was beating me and then I felt a hand rest on my entire shoulder. Mr grandmother died shortly after. Things would also go missing in the house and then show up later. My aunt was a healer and got a physic to pick our house out of about 50. She advised and elderly man in the attic hanging out but no harm.
August 23, 2008 Kerry from Toronto, Ontario:
I
remember i was sitting in the living room relaxing on the couch reading
book, when i distinctly heard the door shut behind me. I turn around the
door is wide open. It sacred the pants off me. Then, to top it off the
tv shuts off. I was out of there. Things still happen that I cannot
explain, footsteps are heard when i am alone in the home and other bumps
in the night that go unexplained. August 10, 2008 Anne from Toronto, Ontario:

June 25, 2008 Lisa from Wallaceberg: My thoughts on native tree spirits. My husband and I had taken a photograph with a group of friends. When we got home we looked at all the pictures on our media center. Very interesting indeed. One we most fave is the native tree spirit that you can see holding a Tommie hawk in his left hand. I hope that picture be posted on this web site soon. I had faith that they are real most my adult life. I'm not born native, am born Canadian. I have great respects for all native culture and there ways. When the group of us viewed this tree spirit we were all in awe of silence that is. When one began to talk there thoughts we did it at the same time. I feel that tree spirits are that of native souls, and spirits. That when they pass over onto the other side, they go where there spirits knows. Back into nature, and there they shall live forever more. I also feel that when a tree gets struck from lightening, that allows the tree spirit to be set free. Because if you compare by imagery on what a healthy tree looks like. One that hasn't been struck by lightening. Then take another look at a tree that has. You can see the difference in there appearances. The one that has been hit by lightening, its energy has died along with the tree spirit. That is why the trees I feel may look that way after that happens. Nature is the best thing within life itself, and if you look hard enough. You will be surprised what nature will show you.
June 6, 2008 Jeff from Ottawa, Ontario: Last year, my wife had her wedding shower party, and brought home some balloons. The ones that are sliver foil-like congratulations type balloons. The balloons were on the main floor of our house in the living room for a couple of days, and never moved except dropping slowly from the ceiling, from the helium leaking. One of our cats needed to be bathed so my wife and I went to fill the bathtub with shampoo and water for the cat. When we opened the shower curtain, we were shocked to find one of the balloons behind the shower curtain. There is a very small space between the shower curtain and the ceiling it could have gone through, but why would the balloon float up the stairs, make a right turn, go into the bathroom, make another right turn, and somehow slip through the small crack between the shower curtain and the ceiling. We were both pretty touched and amazed by it, but assumed it was the air current in the house that carried it up there. However we put that to the test and could not get the balloon to go back up the stairs. A few hours later, we were just hanging out in the basement, and the same balloon came down the stairs, into the basement and hovered all around us in our home theatre room. Now that was weird! The balloon left the bathroom on the top floor, travelled down two sets of stairs, made various turns all the way down to the basement and then just hovered around us. I understand a helium balloon will start to deflate after a few days, but how and why did it travel up a flight of stairs to the bathroom, then back down to the basement a few hours later. It could be completely be explained by the way the air currents were in the house, but the way it travelled so much in one night and only going to where we were in the house was really amazing. For days, it never moved once, and then all of this activity in one night...it was strange. We were about to get married, and we had both lost someone very close to each of us. We both strongly felt and believed this was a sign from one of our family members. Either way, it was cool seeing this balloon moving all around the house in such a slow graceful way.
May 14, 2008 Frank from Orleans, Ontario: About 10 years ago I lived in a townhouse in Blackburn Hamlet, a house which I am convinced had some spirits of some kind living in it. Nothing extraordinary ever happenned, just alot of subtle and weird things. I would often see shadows going up and down the stairs out of the corner of my eye. TV's and VCR's would turn on by themselves... AND play tapes in the middle of the night. I would sometimes get up in the morning and lights would be turned on (we always turned all the lights off. We would sometimes hear people.. or something dialing out on the phone (we had a speaker phone in the bedroom where you would hear on the speaker whenever anyone dialed out from another phone. My daughter, who was about 2 at the time had an imaginary friend named Bob... we would often hear her talking to him when she was alone (I guess that one can easily be chalked up to a kid's imagination, but, when my daughter was young, she displayed signs of being connected to the other side, or past lives anyway) But the creepiest thing is many many times I would catch my cat at the top of the basement stairs... hair standing on end, hissing at the basement... still kinda gives me the willies a bit when I think of it, but I thought it was neat! My wife at the time... didn't think it was so neat.. hehe.
April 11, 2008 Chantal from Pembroke, Ontario: Well this is how it went. It was about late fall in the year 2001. I had come across this weird interesting church program that was on TV and what was weird about it was the pastor spoke about things that were absolutely stupid, in my opinion, so since my husband was at work I decided to record about 5 minutes or so of this program to have a good laugh later with my husband. After I recorded some I rewound the tape and began to play it back, to see if it had recorded properly. Well was I ever in for a shock!!! The screen was pure black and the sounds of whips and chains in the background with a man screaming and crying out, this all was accompanied by what to me sounded like the Devil speaking in tonques in the most scariest deep devil sounding voice. I don't know how else to explain it. So of course I did not wait long to turn it off and I waited till my husband got home. I explained to him for warning him and of course he was sceptical. Well he was no longer a sceptic. As I walked down the hallway to sort of escape the disturbing sounds as he turned it on he sat there dumb founded and said to me, "my God" what do we do with this? We took the tape and put it amongst our other tapes and when I returned later, about a week when we decided to destroy it, it was gone. I did not have it labelled so I thought maybe we would come across it sometime, we have moved now twice and I have yet to find it. It would probably take me 3 days to sit and go through all the tapes. One day I will. Needless to say I don't record church shows anymore.!!!!
April 11, 2008 Amanda from Madawaska: There is this place my sister used to live that is really haunted I have stayed there and I have witnessed some pretty scary stuff the dog used to get rug burns on her face and body because the rumour is that some one shot himself in that apartment on second floor and some people hung them selves there too I just wanted to suggest you guys do an investigation there but I don't know how you could access the building because the landlord is pretty mean they had a priest there and everything but it never left what ever it is it's not nice. there has been bodily attacks and stuff too.

January 26th, 2008 Abi from Almonte, Ontario: When I was very young my brother, dad and myself lived in a split house near a spooky dead end road. I was home alone one day in my room playing with my toys and the house was silent and I mean you could drop and pin and you would hear it silent. Out of absolutely nowhere my dads old stereo turned on and was very loud. It was only on for less than a minute and turned off again. When I went downstairs to see if anyone was home the house was silent no one home and the dog was in the back yard.. i'll tell ya what it scared the life out of me and still gives me the shivers to this day.
January 4, 2008 Jennie from Ottawa, Ontario: On a family road trip vacation when I was 17 we visited various states and historical sites. Although I cant remember exactly what site we visited, we did go to one of the more historically significant battle grounds for the civil war (in other words, a lot of people died there). It was an extremely hot August day, however when I got out of our car it felt as though I was wearing shorts and a t-shirt in the middle of a December snowstorm. I was the only one experiencing this though. My dad and brother walked around reading plaques, snapping pictures while I had to get in the car and turn the heat on! ( It was at least 100 degrees Fahrenheit that day) Close by there was a museum full of antiques from the civil war, uniforms, clothing, weapons, dishes, just about anything you could think of. I was so overwhelming depressed I had to leave the house, the moment I walked in the door I felt as though I was being watched and wanted to cry the whole (albeit short) time I was there. Returning home and examining pictures we had taken the ones from the battlefield were horrible! They were completely unidentifiable, even though pics taken directly before and after on the same roll of film were fine; I am unsure what happened to these pics though. It is unfortunate because I would really like to look at them again or have someone with paranormal experience look at them. I have always been 'sensitive' but this by far was the most an experience has ever affected me.
