another one for ya.My dad told me that years ago,him,his 4 brothers,their birds etc decided to all bundle in a transit and go for a drive.They ended up going up box hill.My dad was driving,and there was two more in the front.Oviously it was pitch black going up there at around midnight.As he was driving him and the other two in the front saw something up ahead. He slowed down a little in the van.As he got closer it was a woman in a white nighty.She was standing on the side of the road,facing towards the otherside of the road. He said the hairs went up on the back of his neck,his body went cold and he was speechless,he looked at the two next to him,and they too were seeing the same.As he passed the woman her head turned and seemed to watched them drive pass.By the time she was out of view of this passenger window(as she was stood on his passenger side) to the time he looked in his passenger wing mirror she had vanished.(you would have still seen he from the light from the rear lights)and the others in the back looked out the rear windows and diddnt see anything.To say he shit himself was a understatement.Same for his passengers.He said he stamped on the go pedal,and let one of his mates drive back down the hill...........

Good ol Box Hill !! Always hearin stories like that from there !!

We been up there loadsa times in the dead of night, heard things but never seen anything, worst time was parkin at the top, runnin (or rollin) down the hill, goin to the steppin stones & then havin to walk back to the motor's at the top when it was pitch black !! We kept playin pranks on each other & the girls absolutely hated it !!

Didn't admit it at the time but I was more than a lil worried myself !!

The other one round these ends is an abandorned nutty hospital in Coulsden & Farthing Downs, especially the church !!

Gotta go back soon I think wit the camera !! Do our own episode of "Most Haunted"

Never seen a ghost, but was at a hotel with funny goings ons.

My wife woke up in the middle of the night, hearing water running.
She went through to the bathroom and the whole room was steamed up with the hot water tap running full butt!

We were in a hotel that used to be the home of Robert the Bruce in the 17th Century.

Me and my mate were walking our dogs one night at Temple Newsam in Leeds, theres a lake with benches all around it and as we walked past we saw a lass on one of the benches crying, we got a couple yards past her and decided to go see if she was ok (figured it was an argument with the boyfriend or something like) turned round and she was gone its a long straight path, she wasn't walking in the other direction and hadn't passed us. Weird, freaked us out a little but since then have had a few occurences that don't make sense, I do believe in ghosts but am not scared of them.

there used to be an insane asylum in viginia park that my old man decorated, was fucking well haunted, one of his guys was there late one night after painting a room, was cleaning all his gear up and kept hearing banging, in the end he shit it and legged it out of there, that same building none of the dogs on the site would go there.

I thought I saw one on a country lane near Cheddar many years ago, at night time.
A whispy figure moving across the road - it turned out to be a reflection of my headlights in standing water. As the car moved relative to the road you'd see these white 'person sized' clouds move across infront of you.
Shit me up til I realised what it really was.

I used to work in a Mental Health Unit years ago and saw & heard a lot of stuff whilst on nights that couldn't be explained.

Wheelchairs moving by themselves, creaking noises from a room where someone hung themself with a leather belt, key controlled lifts opening and closing by themselves, etc.

IHMO - Ghosts, etc are replays of past events.

I do believe that they could exist, but wont believe properly until I see one for myself. Then I'll probably scream like a little girl.

A bit like UFO's really. I can't believe we're the only living things in our universe.

Near me there is a small narrow track off a quiet road that leads down to an old stone foot bridge over the railway line which heads onto the golf course and years and years ago a young girl was hit and killed by a train there. People say that the image of the girl has been seen at the strike of midnight. So, when we were about 17 me a couple of mates drove down and sat in the car waiting to see if anything would happen, thinking it was a laugh and all just a load of rubbish.. So there we were sitting in the car, waiting, watching.. 11.40.. 11.45.. 11.50.. and then 12.00! Bugger all happened. We were laughing about it and just chatting away thinking what else we could get up to then my mate started screaming!! I turned round and there was something at my window, a face looking right at me! I'll never forget those eyes, the eyes of the guy up the road wanting to know what the hell we were doing Talk about shit myself, the bastard.

I don't really believe or disbelieve...

My dog died two years ago, and about 2 months after I was sat in my bedroom and could hear a noise on the landing as if she was running up and down. We had a 22ft landing and she used run up and down it when she wanted to go out. Went out on to the landing and there was nothing there. Happened a couple of times.

Consider this. Everyone is different. Slightly. As a whole we only have a reasonable range of sight (can't see infra red as an example, or very well in the dark), and also hearing, (can't hear subsonics, dog whistles etc).

So whats to say that ghosts appear slightly above the normal frequencies of light, and some people can see them, and some can't.

One time I was layed in bed, and someone said my name. No one was about but I remember it, I shouted my brother and dad and it was niether of them, I did sleep in my grandmas bedroom though who had passed away
I the same house, I had the day off and my dad and brother went out. I was downstairs when they went out and once they had gone I went up for a shower. I came down and went to get the paper from the portch but the door was locked from inside, and it was impossible to lock from the outside? Very strange but ive got no idea why a ghost would lock a door lol

The most interesting story I have was what I thought was a dream!

When my granded died I always had this big regrete of not telling him I loved him, for months after he died I was having strange dreams about him, bad dreams actually, the kind that makes you wake up in a sweat. But one night I had a different kind of dream, he came walking passed my door as he always did on his way home from work, wearing his navy blue and yellow coat, dirty grey duffle bag and his steeltoe capped boots, also carrying his paper and with fag hanging out the side of his gob. This time he called in to my house ( he used to say hello and continue on his way ) and brought me out the back where he told me he new I loved him and not to worry - he then walked the wrong way out my back and in the opposite direction from his house. When I told my mum about it the next day she broke down and reminded me it was his first anniversary!

Few months after, my aunt ( who lived with him ) went to a spiritualist who was the wife of one of her work colleague. Straight off the bat the girl new the my aunt was there to see Jackie - who was with Margaret ( grandads / grans names ). She told her stuff that she didn't even no but was later confirmed by my mum, things like my granny having two wedding rings etc, and this was all said without asking any questions. Before my aunt left her house she called her back and said " tell the worried grandson that it was not a dream he had, his grandad visited him to give him peace of mind"! Freaks me out to this day, I even got shivered up writing about it.

ive never seen a ghost but my missis n i do believe there is life after death.she does tarot cards and majority of the time she is bang on right.youve got to be sceptical about after life and have an open mind.there will always be disbelivers its just the way it is.we have had experiences of 'seeing ' things at place we are now and also where we used to live.when we were at our old flat sitting in lounge out of the corner of your eye you could see a shadow run past the doorway which gave impression of a dog.i went upto the loft a few months later and found pictures of a terrier which i believed was the dog spirit which inhabited our flat.also at our current place we have a touch lamp and every so often it switches on by itself when noone else has been in the bungalow.we think its the lady who used to live her and passed away before we moved in.as long as your not afraid then spirits wont bother u.if the light turns on i normally say out hello doris as thats who lived here.they are just communicating even letting you know they are protecting you

btw me n missis are going to cliffs pavilion here in southend on thrusday to see derek acorah.cant fooking wait
