I have so many stories to share. I literally don't know where to start. Once the kids are in bed tonight I will attempt sharing a few. In the meantime, I am loving all these accounts. So fascinating! Thanks so much for sharing them. I'm in my element!

So sad about your wee stillborn baby but sweet that you have felt their presence

I’m loving this thread! I frequently get sleep paralysis. I hate it but don’t feel the presence thing that other people do. Just that I can’t breathe and try to scream but I cant.

Anyway, I haven’t really got any to share personally but have recently been utterly transfixed by the Dear David story on twitter. If you haven’t heard of it, there’s a really good recap here https://www.bustle.com/p/what-is-de...aunted-apartment-from-start-to-finish-7714979. Terrifying!!

Well I didn't sleep very well last night after reading that! I half think it's probably a set up though. The guy works for buzz feed

Yeah, it occurred to me it probably wasn’t real. Still, a good read and those pictures at the end!

Don't know how I have only just come across this thread but I've spent all morning reading it.

Not had experiences like some but a few weird things that have happened.

When I was about 13 I woke up one morning and the first thing I thought about was my great grandma and she was there in my mind all morning and then suddenly the thought of her just went, a few hours later my uncle came to our house and told us that my great grandma had passed not long after dinner time that day, I like to think it was her way of saying bye.

Also we lost my grandad 5 years ago and it broke all out hearts even though we were expecting it, the night after we found out he died I got into bed and cried all of a sudden i felt this presence and it calmed me and i felt that every night up until his funeral, every now and then I feel my grandads presence and even in the past few weeks we have been getting a little Robin that keeps coming into our garden and just stays still and stares at us and then flies off, I like to think that that's just him checking up on us.

This wont sound too creepy but its surreal to think about now.

When I was younger, about 10, my mother bought my sister , who was 4, and I bunk beds. (Small house , 4 kids)

We shared these bunk beds until we were in our 20s and still sharing a room (dont judge we were going through uni and saving )

Anyways, from the moment we got them things were weird. If only one of us was in bed , we could always hear the other breathing above or below us. or feel them moving about. One night my sister got annoyed at my fidgeting and heavy breathing and got out of bed to find I hadn't come home that night so wasnt there!

Then one night I actually felt something touch my foot and when my hand reached to investigate I felt another warm human hand. That was the final straw and we moved rooms and took the beds apart.

Our childhood friends even heard it when they stayed over so at least we have people out there who believe us.

It's made up, I use to follow it daily when Adam Ellis was tweeting about it, turns out it's all for a story he wants to publish.

I thought that immediately after when i saw he wanted to make a film of it but it’s still freaked me out and I slept with the telly on the past couple of nights

Read that Adam Ellis thread. The photos were obvious staged but still had to get my OH to walk me to the bathroom for a midnight pee can anyone recommend any other spooky reads?

Just now

im sat on my sofa reading on here and watching tv

the tv is in front of me,the door to the lounge on my right-walk through that and your in my hallway/stairs

my fella is outside,in our garden (I can hear him)

sd is upstairs in her bedroom (she’s a tiny thing and about 5’2)

I’m just reading random threads and in the corner of my eye I see a black shadow coming down my stairs-it looked like a tall man but he stooped (at least 6’)

it got to the bottom of the stairs and vanished

the lady who lived here before us got the house when her granddad died-he bought it and gave it to her in his will,but she had 3 kids so sold to us and bought a bigger house so they could have their own bedrooms

im wondering if he’s come back to check if we’re looking after ‘his’ house

well sir-we are

Just reading this thread for the first time today and loving everyone’s stories and it’s a bank holiday a year later to this post, think that’s spooky enough I won’t watch the video lol just in case!

my story isn’t so much scary more comforting, so my grandad was really unwell in hospial, He lived in Scotland and us in England. We got the call that he didn’t have much longer to go, days maybe, so my mum and I flew up the next morning. It was a beautiful sunny day no clouds in the sky, the flight was perfectly smooth apart from one point out of no where the plan just dropped suddenly, I don’t know how much but after that moment it carried on smoothly for the remainder of the journey.
When we landed our relatives were there to pick us up, crying and we knew instantly my grandad had passed away, it was the same time we felt the bump.
Later that night my mum and I talked about it and took comfort in the fact that it was my grandad going to heaven

I know it’s likely to be a set up but I saw the photos of “David” on the bed and noped the fuck out of that story

I am not particularly “in tune” with the spiritual world but I used to rent an old flat that had been converted from a house and had a few odd going’s on there. I never felt threatened or scared but my dog would go absolutely bananas at the hallway, he’d just stand at the living room door and bark and howl. I used to have nightmares regularly about that door being shut and suddenly bursting open, I never saw anything though but my dog doesn’t do that now we’re in a different home which makes me think he could see something I couldn’t!

Another time we had moved the living room around and had the sofa sitting in front of the fireplace (we had to jiggle the room to get our own furniture to work in it and it was the only place that sofa fit).
On top of the fireplace was a huge mirror and my partner and I were sitting watching tv with him lying across the other sofa, me on one end of the sofa in front of fireplace and my dog on the other end. Suddenly out of nowhere the mirror above the fireplace flipped off and landed in between me and the dog - on the only empty seating space in the room. I just about shit myself on the spot and tried to rationalise it but the walls were super thick between flats and I could always hear my neighbours above if they were doing anything so I knew it wasn’t because of something they’d been doing upstairs either! It was a huge fireplace so it didn’t slip off and it flipped in a way that was impossible to do even if it had.

I love older homes but after reading this thread I may reconsider
