Real Ghost Stories Online

What starts as a post-graduation celebration in the Philippines quickly turns into a night no one will ever forget. After their boat driver refuses to take them back to the mainland, a group of friends rents rooms at a newly built inn for the night.

But what should have been just a safe place to crash turns terrifying. A woman sees an elderly lady in the morning who claims she lives upstairs—only for the friends to realize later that the house has no upstairs at all. And during the night, one couple is attacked by an unseen fo...

Some hauntings don’t arrive with slamming doors or shattered windows. They creep in quietly, piece by piece, until the ordinary becomes unbearable. For her and her sisters, their small apartment became exactly that — a place where something unseen shared their space.

It began with a feeling, a heaviness in the air, as if the apartment was already full when they moved in. Soon came the sightings — a soft blue glow drifting through bedrooms at night, giggles echoing in the hallway, and the unmistakable sound of footsteps when no one was awake. Most chilling of all was the child...

Deep in rural Kansas, hidden within a near-ghost town, stands a building frozen in time — a haunted church built in 1904. With its towering spires reaching toward the heavens and a presence that dominates the empty prairie, it looks like something out of a Gothic novel. But behind its weathered brick walls lies more than just history. It holds stories… and spirits.

For more than a century, this sacred space has witnessed life’s most defining moments: baptisms, weddings, and tearful funerals. The prayers, laughter, and grief of generations seem to cli...

This jam-packed segment delivers not one but two unforgettable ghost stories.

First, caller “J-Lo” from California recounts eerie experiences involving her young son. On one trip to a historic cemetery, he suddenly pointed out “people waving” from the overgrown graveyard — though no one else was there. Years later, after J-Lo’s mother passed unexpectedly, her son calmly reported that grandma had come to visit him in his room, looking sad but unmistakably present.

Then comes caller Steve with one of the strangest accounts we’ve ever heard: an astral projection experience. After smoking cannabis before bed, he dreamed of...

Some hauntings play by the rules. They stay in one house, linger in one shadow, fade with time. But some do not. This chilling true story tells of a haunting that followed one woman from apartment to house to workplace—growing darker, stranger, and more urgent with every passing month.

It began in a small apartment. The basement felt angry, heavy. Upstairs, something more playful stirred—hiding objects, moving toilet paper, even mimicking her boyfriend’s voice so perfectly she thought he had climbed into bed when he hadn’t. Another time, it mimicked a friend’s “Dungeon Master” voic...

When she moved into a simple one-story rental, she expected an ordinary life in the city. Instead, she found herself living in a revolving door of tenants, unexplained phenomena, and spirits that refused to be ignored.

It began with strange sounds: a little girl crying in the night, cigar smoke drifting into empty rooms, and a heat like flames licking across her skin. Then came the encounters she couldn’t explain away—her father’s voice calling from the hall even though he lived in another state, objects vanishing and reappearing, and the pale, floating face of a young...

Some hauntings never really end—they wait.

For one listener, that haunting takes the form of a small boy dressed in 1920s-style clothes. He first appeared during her pregnancy in 2016, making himself known through creaking footsteps, moving chairs, and rattling dishes. By her second pregnancy, he became bolder—appearing in full view, turning lights on, and even playing with her young child.

Others saw him too. A godmother leaving the property glimpsed him near the edge of the yard: blonde hair, white shirt, brown overalls—exactly how the mother had seen him inside the home.

Bu...

Some haunted houses scream their presence. Others linger in silence — manipulating, erasing, and reminding you they’re always watching.

That’s the unsettling reality of one family’s home, a seemingly ordinary brick house from the 70s that became the setting for decades of paranormal encounters. From phantom footsteps on the basement stairs to eerie music drifting through the vents, every corner of the home carried an energy that couldn’t be ignored. But the most disturbing detail wasn’t just the activity — it was the way evidence never stayed.

Strange photos taken inside the house revealed faces...

Ghosts don’t always appear in rags and shadows. Sometimes they arrive in elegance. In this chilling call, two young sisters in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, recall the day they saw a striking woman in a short red cocktail dress and high heels walking past their swing set — only to vanish before their eyes.

The image was unforgettable: long blonde hair, head hung low in sadness, stepping straight into a backyard overgrown with poison ivy. Both sisters saw her. Both ran screaming to tell their mom. And the story of the Lady in the Red Dress became a family legend.

Some hauntings stay behind when you move. Others follow. This is the terrifying true story of a haunting that began in Alameda, California—and followed one family across cities, across years, and across lives. What started with whispers ended with a full-blown war against something darker than a ghost.

It began on the very first night in their Alameda apartment. As children lay in bed, they heard music drifting from the closet and rollerblade sounds circling overhead. Then came the ants—cascading from walls, the bathtub, and even the closet itself. On May 1st, when their father was away...

Some paranormal encounters are quiet. Subtle. Easy to doubt. This one was not.

One listener, a seasoned professional used to handling every type of personality imaginable, found themselves frozen with fear during what should have been an ordinary hiring event. Dozens of job applicants filled the waiting room, but one young man stood out immediately. Pale, stiff, strangely formal for his age—he sat alone, hands folded neatly on the table, never glancing at his phone.

Then, as if sensing her gaze, he looked up. And that’s when she saw them.  Not pupils. Not irises. Just...

This isn’t a movie script. This is a true story from a former college student who found himself at the center of a chilling haunting in a small off-campus rental. At first, it seemed harmless — a few restless nights, some nervous laughs, and a strange habit of waking at exactly 2:47. But then came the humming.

It started softly, drifting through the living room, almost like a woman’s voice carried on the air. But night after night it grew closer. Louder. Until it seemed to be standing right outside his bedroom door. The humming wasn’t joyful or famil...

Some places carry the weight of history. Others carry the weight of the dead. The Old Charleston Jail manages to do both.

Standing for nearly two centuries, this foreboding structure in Charleston, South Carolina, was built atop a burial ground and went on to become one of the most feared prisons in America. Within its heavy stone walls, both the guilty and the innocent were imprisoned during some of the darkest chapters of American history. Torture, despair, and death seeped into every brick — and it seems the energy of th...

Numbers have meaning. For one caller, the number 26 has followed her for her entire life — birthdays, addresses, arrests, even dorm rooms. It became a pattern too strange to ignore. But it wasn’t until her best friend Dominic tragically died in a house fire that the number took on a life of its own.

During Dominic’s memorial trip to the casino, she walked to the roulette table and watched as the ball landed on 26. Not once. Not twice. But three times in a row. The odds of that happening are astronomical. Was Dominic sending her a sign? Or was...

Some hauntings don’t stay locked to a single house, a single town, or even a single country. Some attach themselves to a person—and follow them like a shadow stitched to their very life. This is the terrifying true story of “Shadow,” a faceless entity that appeared when a girl was only six years old and never stopped watching her.

It began in Florenceville, New Brunswick. A small, quiet Canadian village. One day, while playing upstairs, she heard her name called. Thinking it was her father, she ran to the railing and looked down. Standing in the entryway...

Sometimes a haunting doesn’t creep in slowly—it crashes into your life all at once.

When one listener was just eight years old, their family moved into a house that should have been a fresh start. Instead, it became the setting of a nightmare that lasted only two months… but left a lifetime of memories.

It began with something small, but unsettling: every night, without fail, the kitchen sink would turn itself on. Not a drip, not a trickle—the knobs would twist, and the water would flow until someone got up to shut it off. The...

Some ghost stories are about fear. Others are about heartbreak. This one is about both.

A woman shares her most personal and emotional secret: years ago, during a difficult time in her marriage, she had an affair. The man she loved was later diagnosed with terminal cancer and passed away—without them ever saying goodbye. What followed was grief unlike anything she had ever known. But soon after, signs began to appear. Dreams that felt too real. Pranks only he would pull. A ghostly presence that lingered at her side.

Then one morning, as the sun ro...

For one young couple in a small town in Arkansas, a fun night of amateur ghost hunting turned into something they never expected: a haunting that followed them home.

It began with curiosity. Obsessed with paranormal shows like Ghost Hunters and Paranormal State, they decided to test their luck at a local abandoned church and graveyard known for its ghost stories. The night itself was creepy but uneventful—or so they thought.

Days later, life returned to normal… until she saw it. Standing in the kitchen late at night, glass of water in hand, she caught sigh...

Not all hauntings begin with shadows and screams. Sometimes they start with something deceptively sweet — like the ghost of a little white dog curling up at your feet. In this haunting letter story, a young girl growing up in a two-story ranch home quickly realizes her new companion may not be so harmless after all.

At first, the phantom dog seemed like comfort — a familiar presence keeping her company at night. But as the activity escalated, the haunting grew darker. TVs switched themselves on to Turner Classic Movies and Nick at Nite. A soothing mother-like voice called out in t...

Some houses don’t need shattered windows or rotting staircases to be haunted. Sometimes, the most ordinary walls hide the darkest secrets. This true paranormal story comes from Lincoln Park, where one seemingly normal suburban home—nicknamed “Buckingham Palace”—harbored a haunting that would leave its mark forever.

When Brittany was five, her family moved into the house. Her father painted her new room pink, filling the walls with hearts, Mickey Mouse sketches, and the family dog. He wanted it to feel safe. But safety was the one thing the house refused to offer.

It began with whisp...

Some hauntings whisper. Others pull.

When one family moved into a home with a sparkling pool and mirrored closets, they thought they’d found paradise. Instead, their child was drawn into a nightmare that nearly cost him his life.

But the true danger waited outside—at the pool.

From the very first day, the water seemed charged with an eerie, electrical presence. The child felt compelled to return to it again and again, even when it was closed for winter. More than once, he found himself standing at the edge of the deep end with...

What if the spirits in your home weren’t angry… but still made their presence impossible to ignore?

Annie and her wife moved into what seemed like a perfectly ordinary Florida house in 2011. But within months, their quiet life turned into something much stranger.

It began with the sound of dishes clinking in the kitchen. Annie had gone to bed early, but her wife swore she heard someone washing dishes—water running, plates clattering—just feet away. Even their cat crept to the doorway to investigate. But when she got up to check, the kitchen was pitch bl...

Some camping trips are about fresh air and freedom. This one became a brush with the paranormal.

She shared a true story of terror from a weekend trip to Mount St. Helens. What was supposed to be an adventurous getaway—hiking, exploring the Ape Caves, and sleeping under the stars—turned into a nightmare that still haunts her years later.

With no tent, she and her boyfriend decided to camp in the bed of his truck, covered by a canopy and fitted with an air mattress. The first night seemed harmless enough—until the forest went silent...

If walls could talk, the Historic Scott County Jail would scream.

Built in 1904 to resemble a medieval fortress, this former Tennessee jail has witnessed over a century of violence, heartbreak, and incarceration—and according to many, the souls inside never truly left.

Now operated as a museum and active paranormal research center, the jail is overseen by investigators Miranda Young and Kristy Sumner. What they've uncovered inside is beyond eerie—full-bodied apparitions, chilling EVPs, and footsteps that echo long after the living have gone.

Tonight’s story takes us deep inside one of Idaho’s most infamous paranormal hot spots — the old TB Gooding Hospital. Once a tuberculosis ward, then left abandoned, this massive building has developed a reputation as one of the most haunted sites in the state. Paranormal investigator Jennifer Ward of Western Idaho Paranormal shared with us one of the most chilling EVPs ever captured inside the crumbling hospital walls.

What makes this EVP different? It’s not a faint whisper or scratchy static. This one is crystal clear. A child’s voice — small, fragile, and unmistakably present — saying “Bye Dada.” Inves...

Not all hauntings announce themselves with screams in the night or flickering lights caught on camera. Some creep in silently—moments so ordinary yet so chilling, they burn themselves into memory forever. This is one of those true stories.

It begins in the safest of places: a bright, modern Methodist church. No gothic spires, no crumbling stone, no shadows dancing in candlelight. Just clean carpets, hymn books, and Sunday prayers. But for one child, everything changed the moment they opened their eyes. Because standing at the altar was a monk. Not the pastor. Not anyone from the congregation. A...

What happens when your worst nightmare doesn’t stay in your dreams?

For Sicily, a Chicago native with a lifelong sensitivity to the paranormal, the strange became terrifying during her stay in a historic New York apartment. The address itself was an omen: 666.

At first, her life there was ordinary. She locked the chain, threw the deadbolt, and settled into bed like she always did. But within minutes, everything changed. Sicily heard the unmistakable sound of the chain sliding free, the bolt unlocking, and the heavy creak of her apartment door opening—then closing.

What happens when your childhood home isn’t just a house—but a gateway for something else?

This chilling story comes from a massive log cabin in rural America, where a young family moved in while building their permanent home. At first, it seemed like the perfect place—spacious rooms, a pond, and acres of woods. But soon, footsteps echoed in empty hallways, closets whispered with voices, and an unseen presence made sure no one ever felt alone.

For the storyteller, the nightmare began at just five years old. Nights brought footsteps above the bedroom ceiling and th...

Some stories aren’t just ghost tales—they’re warnings. This chilling true story began with a single mistake: a mother and her friend playing with a Ouija board in a quiet California home. What started as fun turned sinister when the board revealed her grandmother’s name… then spelled HELL. Finally, it named itself: DEMON.

That night marked the beginning of years of terror. The board came back after being thrown away. A sister saw a panther growling from her closet. A ventriloquist doll refused to stay hidden. Sleep paralysis gripped the children. A demonic face appeared in the liv...

On tonight’s episode of Real Ghost Stories Online Live, the darkness begins with a chilling call from Katrina in Asheville, North Carolina. Her family’s home on Marilyn Avenue carried more than memories—it carried terror.

Katrina’s Aunt Patsy knew something was wrong from the start. The dog growled into empty corners. Katrina’s sister refused to sleep there. But the house revealed its true power one night on the upstairs balcony. While feeding her cat, Patsy watched in horror as the sliding patio door slammed shut—and the deadbolt locked. From outside. Trapped 13 feet up, she had no w...

Some people grow up knowing they’re not alone. For her, it started in childhood—voices in empty rooms, the sense of eyes at her back. At nineteen came the first direct encounter: a pitch-black, basketball-sized sphere perched at the corner of her bed. It didn’t drift. It jumped—hard—slamming the bed into the headboard and scattering objects. “A nightmare,” her father said. But beds don’t launch themselves. That’s when the lifelong haunting began.

Years passed. Activity ebbed, then surged. Nightmares left her soaked in sweat, heart racing, details erased—only terror remained. Last July, she moved to a...

What happens when the jealous rage of a living person is so strong, it crosses the boundary between the physical and the spiritual? That’s the terrifying question behind this chilling story of paranormal intrusion, astral projection, and pure rage.

One night, a sensitive sleeper woke to the overwhelming sensation that a woman was standing at the foot of the bed. Normally, these experiences could be brushed aside, but this one was different. This time, the air itself seemed to vibrate with fury. They didn’t dare open their eyes, certain that if they did, they would see a wo...

Some houses feel wrong the moment you step inside. He learned that lesson the hard way in his mid-twenties, when he rented an old farmhouse. At first, it seemed harmless—cheap rent, plenty of space, just him and his dog. But the peace didn’t last.

It started small. Chairs pulled away from the kitchen table overnight. Footsteps paced the unused upstairs bedroom. Low, tuneless humming drifted down the stairs. Then came the crying—a man’s muffled sobs echoing through the house, night after night. His dog would growl, bark, and finally retreat in terror.

Anthony Almaraz didn’t have to learn to believe in ghosts. He lived with them.

From his earliest years, his childhood home was a battleground of the unexplained—objects hurling themselves across rooms, shadow figures lurking in doorways, and doppelgängers mimicking his every move. It wasn’t just spooky… it was violent.

These weren’t your average ghost stories. These were relentless encounters with something unseen. Something intelligent. And something angry.

By adulthood, Anthony wasn’t running from the fear anymore—he was chasing answers. What h...

Inglewood, California, 1956. What began as a new start for the Long family quickly turned into one of the most chilling hauntings ever whispered about in American suburbia. This is the true story of a four-year ordeal filled with poltergeist activity, ghostly footsteps, moving objects, and a face pressed against the window that would keep the children awake in terror.

For Don Long and his siblings, the nightmare began with scratching sounds under their army surplus bunk beds. The noise would move across the room, from wall to wall, as if invisible claws were raking the wood. Soon, the...

Some spirits linger not to frighten, but to comfort. This chilling yet deeply moving ghost story proves that sometimes, the ones who return from the other side are the ones we loved most.

For one woman, the story begins with her grandfather, “Pop-Up Ted,” a stubborn yet lovable WWII veteran who spent his later years trying to repair the mistakes of his past. His house, however, carried a heavy darkness. The family spoke of lights flickering, footsteps in empty rooms, and a woman’s apparition roaming the halls. Even Ted himself refused to sleep in a bedroom, choosing instea...
