I need to know if anyone else has been through something like this. I’ve seen ghosts before, and I’ve heard angels and demons too.

The other night, I saw three dark-winged figures that I believe were demons. They didn’t speak or move toward me, just stood there about 60 yards away. I was already having one of the worst days of my life, so I didn’t go any closer. I felt like if I did, something bad might happen.

Two of them perched on a fence like birds, while the other one stood on the ground in a dark alley. It moved strangely, like a strobe light flickering—it would step, but I couldn’t see every movement. I decided to walk the other way. They didn’t follow me. I think they just wanted me to know they were there.

Has anyone else ever seen something like this?

I also once saw a ghost with glowing red eyes—driving a car. It sounds crazy, but I swear it was a ghost car. Does anyone know what that could mean?

Over the years, I’ve seen spirits—both people and animals. I’ve even seen a UFO. Lately, I’ve been meditating and tapping into my spiritual side instead of ignoring these things like I used to. I’ve also been reading about different religions and magic, and honestly, my life feels like it’s changing for the better.

I don’t know what those three dark figures were or what the red-eyed ghost meant, but I hope someone can help me understand. Thanks for taking the time to read my story.

The Last Coal

I was twelve when my grandfather, Elias, finally gave up the ghost. He was a man of few words, but those words were heavy as the coal he’d hauled from the earth for forty years. I was his shadow, a scrawny kid trailing behind his stoop-shouldered frame as he shuffled through his garden or whittled […]

The Socket and the Snow

The winter my family moved to my grandmother’s house, the cold crept into the bones of the place like a living thing. The house sat at the edge of a town that was little more than a gas station and a church, and the snow fell so thick and so often that the world outside […]

The Clockwork Map

I was nine when I learned that some truths are too heavy for the living. My family had just moved to the old Beaumont house, a crooked Victorian at the edge of a town that didn’t appear on most maps. The previous owner, a reclusive cartographer, had died under odd circumstances, and the house came […]

The Last Roadside Altar

The pine trees along Route 9 had begun to blur into a single dark wall when Marcus first saw the figure. It was just past the mile marker with the faded blue sign, the one that promised a diner and gas station that had been boarded up for years. He blinked, rubbed his eyes, and […]

The Weeping Ash

In the salt-bitten town of Port Orford, Oregon, where the Pacific gnawed at cliffs and the rains fell like gray curtains, I grew up in a house that sagged on a hillside, its eaves dripping with moss and its windows like old, tired eyes. The house was called the Ashford House, a two-story structure of […]

The Static Guest

The summer of 2014 found me in a rented bungalow on the outskirts of a dried-up lake town in Nevada, where the heat shimmered off the cracked asphalt like a mirage. I was housesitting for a friend who’d gone to Europe, and the place was filled with the sort of clutter that made you feel […]

The Rusted Gate

I was nine when we moved into the house behind the rusted gate. It wasn’t a gate that closed anything in, just a broken chain-link fence that leaned toward the house like a tired drunk. Mama said it was cheap, and that’s all that mattered. She had a new man again, Dale, with a grin […]

The Static-Faced Woman

We were in my friend Mira’s basement, huddled in a fort of old quilts and couch cushions. The summer heat above us was a weight, but down here it was just a thick, damp breath. Mira’s little sister, Lena, was trying to scare us with a story about a girl who drowned in the crick […]

The Knocking

This was my first real experience with the paranormal, although as long as I can remember I have been fascinated with it, and read every book on the subject that I could find. When I was younger, I used to spend every summer with my Grandparents (or Nanna and Pappa as my family referred to […]

The Morning Line

The morning sun spilled over the ridge line like honey, catching the dew on the wild grass and turning the entire meadow into a field of scattered diamonds. I had come to the old farmhouse to clear out my aunt’s things after she passed, but the moment I stepped out onto the back porch, I […]

The Scent of Wood and Smoke

It has been six weeks since I published my last notes on the presence. The dreams have stopped, and the whispers have faded into silence. I no longer wake with the taste of copper in my mouth or the feeling of being watched from the darkest corner of my apartment. But the movement persists. A […]

The Porch Light

The umber dusk of August 3rd settled over the pine woods of southern Alabama like a wet blanket. I sat on the porch swing of the house my wife and I had built from scratch, a year of our sweat and savings baked into every beam. The air was thick, cicadas sawing their endless tune, […]
