The Amityville Horror
February 18th, 2010 | 7 Comments
Everyone knows about the large, beautiful house that sets right on the shore on Ocean Ave. in Amityville, New York. Was it real or a hoax? Most people seem to think that it was just a hoax, but most famous paranormal investigators still maintain the house is haunted by an evil presence. In November 1974, Ronald DeFeo murdered his entire family, shooting them all with a .35 Marlin Rifle. According to DeFeo he was being controlled by evil spirits and heard voices. He was sentenced to six life sentences. A year later Kathy and George Lutz moved in. They moved out after a month.

Black Aggie
February 9th, 2010 | 3 Comments
There is a legend about Druid Ridge Cemetery in Baltimore, Maryland. It is locally well-known for it being the former home of a statue known as Black Aggie. In the early part of the century, there was a woman named Aggie, who was a nurse working at a hospital. She was congenial and well-liked, but it seemed that patients under her care always seemed to die. Suspicion grew, and she was put to death, which turned out to be a mistake when she was discovered to be innocent the very next day. A communal feeling of guilt spread, so a statue was put in Druid Ridge Cemetery in her honor. When the statue was unveiled, strange occurrences started happening. I’ve heard that if you stand before it at the … Read entire article »

Vegas Baby
February 8th, 2010 | 2 Comments
There are loads of ghost stories going around Las Vegas about haunted casinos and parks. I’m not a big believer in ghosts, but I don’t deny their existence. At Foxridge Park on Valle Verde in Las Vegas, there is a ghost of a little boy who loves the swings. I’ve been there and I think it is true. After the sun went down, my husband and I and our two kids were the only ones there. My three year old daughter ran to the swings and we made her come back. She had hit the swing and made it sway side to side. After a few swings, it changed direction and swung front to back. The chain remained taught, as if someone was sitting in it. There was no … Read entire article »

A Mother’s Love
February 6th, 2010 | 10 Comments
This story happened on a cold mid-autumn day somewhere in the mid-western states. Two gentlemen were working in the town’s small general store. The store was quiet and no customers were shopping until she walked in. A small frail woman dressed in gray entered the store, and proceeded toward the dairy section, saying nothing. She picked up a glass container of milk and, without paying for it or even glancing at the gentlemen, walked out of the store. The men, surprised by the woman’s thievery, hurried out of the store after her…but she was gone. A few days later, the incident occurred again. The same small woman dressed in the same gray dress entered the store, grabbed a glass container of milk, and left without paying. Again the men … Read entire article »

Visiting Grandmother
February 5th, 2010 | 6 Comments
A young newlywed couple was heading to a Halloween party one rainy evening and stopped at a stop sign, where they saw a very wet, very cold, and VERY old woman standing in the rain getting drenched. The wife asked her husband if they could give her a ride. Angela rolled down her window a little and yelled out, "Do you need a ride somewhere?" "Yes I would.

This is my own experience with Gravity Hill in Jackson NJ. A friend of mine from work lived in Jackson and I drove her home one night when we got out of work late.

Her mother had died when she was very young and her father raised her. He was a truck driver and would sometimes have to leave town for days at a time. Helen was used … Read entire article »
