    Summer 2006, camp Victory, I was tasked with watch tower duty, around 2300 hours, I scanned my sector with nods and registered a human silhouette clear as day about 75 meters out, called it in, west side tower was unable to find it, swapped to thermal, I’m still registering this thing clear as day, moving East to west still holding at 75 meters out. 11 minutes went by, and the heat signature began to fade away right before we set out on a foot patrol to make contact. This was the moment I became a believer. Many things happened that I can’t explain during my 5 rotations. And at times I think I brought that shit home with me because weird stuff happens in my house and I see shadows out the corner of my eyes. Keep this going Shawn, I’d love for more operators who were in the shit to share their experiences.

      Camp Victory had some odd parts to it. I never saw anything freaky (I was there for OIF 1 and 05/06) but it wouldn't surprise me if there was some. Abu Graib down the road was supposed to be haunted AF and that was BEFORE the prisoner abuse scandal. (Saddam's guys did some truly evil stuff there - by comparison our scandal was Cub Scout stuff.) If you're literally haunted by stuff that you think came back with you, go see an exorcist or a mental health pro. Or both.

    This isn't a ghost story, but still.
    We were in Afghanistan, and we were sent to this area we had never been before. We arrived there and started doing our thing. The odd thing is that there was NOBODY there. No livestock. No Kids. No adults. No one. No one was in their mud house. The whole time we were there though, there was this vibe (it's the only way I can describe it) of fear, sadness, despair. Like something terrible had happened there. At first, I thought it was just me. Then one of the other guys next to me said "Dude, this place has a horrible feeling to it. I can feel it." I told him "I can feel it too. It's like something seriously f-cked up happened here."
    The crazy thing is, right when we left that area, those feelings went away. I still think about that area from time to time. Wondering what happened there. Wondering if there really is an energy that is left behind after something horrible happens, that the living can feel.

      Same here, two, maybe three different places (and I've been to a LOT of places). One was a neighborhood park in a city. I don't think I have any great psychic talent at all, but I felt that some angry/evil stuff went down there, like drug/gang-related, misery, despair. I was with a group and others felt the creepy-dark-cloud quality, as well. I don't know what happened there, but I was certain it was bad. Returned there at least one other time...same feeling. I still think about that place from time-to-time and a couple other places. Some places got the "shining" like Scatman Crother's character says in the movie The Shining.

    I live in a house built in the early 1800s. The fireplace in the living room was built from creek rocks right beside the driveway. I was the same way until I moved in here. Weird shit happens pretty regular. I tried to ignore it until I saw a 6 foot shadow walk though the kitchen into the bathroom. Did a little research and come to find out at least one person was killed in this house. The local tobacco farmers used to get around down here and play poker. There were 3 guys at this game and all were drunk as shit and one guy was cheating. Got caught and one of the other 3 stabbed him to death and threw his body in the well. Third party ratted him out and they pulled the body out of the well. Shit disappears and reappears where you've already looked for it. And its usually my pocket knives

      @-Zer0Dark- 3 года назад +9

      Not to get all woo-woo-spooky-science, but there's a belief, in paranormal circles, that water and rocks both create/store various energies. Limestone, in particular, is said to hold tightly to spiritual charges and cause them to be "replayed" later on (an idea called "stone tape theory"). And running water, under the right conditions, charges the atmosphere and, so the theory goes, primes it for paranormal activity to manifest.
      Rocks that spent a lot of their existence in a creek could be like little batteries charging your already-susceptible property to release the events that were imprinted on it. Or maybe I'm just talking out of my ass, idk. lol

      I guess the good thing is: If the theory is true, and that's what you've got going on, it's not a conscious entity that's lurking around your place. It's more like a leftover energy (a "residual haunting") from whatever may have taken place there--like a hand leaving behind a warm handprint on a surface that it's touched. It looks like a hand in thermal vision, it's warm like a hand, but the person who left it is gone, and it just kind of lingers there until it fades. These kinds of hauntings, too, seem to fade with time. Or so I've read.

    When I was 18 years old… I visited my country and my cousin owns a local flower shop to our town. Well, It was New Year’s Eve and close to midnight when I saw him and his daughter start to move empty cement buckets with roses. So I decided to help out. Turns out that it was his personal tradition to walk to the local cemetery and place a rose on every grave. Let me tell you… that was the first and last time I will ever visit a cemetery, midnight, on New Year’s Day. The things I saw 👀, heard, and felt… All I can say is that when you feel a cold breeze and you see a fog and or mist… you are not in Kansas anymore.

    I fucken love ghost stories. I got one. I went to Mexico with my parents in January of 2003, I was 18 years old at the time. We stayed at my grandmas house for 2 weeks. My great grandpa passed away in one of the small rooms. Nobody stays there any more. It is very dark in there with green tiles on the floor and blue green paint on the walls. Its is used as a storage room now. One night I was out drinking with my cousins. I got home at 1-2am, I was not drunk but was a little buzzed. As soon as I laid down to sleep. I started to hear foot steps really close. It sounded like they had flip lops on. I got up to investigate, I thought it was my mom. Mom was asleep. I checked the front of the house, the backyard, and the living room. Every were I went the footsteps sounded like they were right behind me. I looked at the dark room, at that moment I stopped the investigation and went to bed. I prayed my self to sleep that night.

      I went there last Halloween with my sister, specifically hoping to have a paranormal encounter. We visited all the sites, put flowers on Jennie's grave, talked to empty woods, asked questions of the air, and saw, heard, and felt absolutely nothing. We decided to head back to our car completely disappointed.
      ...And then the cannon fire echoed across the fields. And then again. And every time, I tried to write it off as a dumptruck, but there was no construction in the woods, so I tried to explain it away as a hunter, but it was 11:00pm and coming from a hundred yards away from us at the base of Culp's Hill.
      We never saw or heard anything more, but it was enough to make me think twice. And what was weird was that it was at an exact moment in our conversation and at the instant we stepped foot off the field and into the parking lot, that it was like the battlefield was trying to make a point. You truly couldn't have written the timing any better. I said something to the effect of, "This place officially is NOT haunted--PERIOD," and then the blast.
      I'm 100% going back this year, and this time I'm gonna visit Devil's Den. I hear it's notorious for spooks.

I'm also curious if you can track down one of the guys from the Afghan cave "Giant" incident/ story that's been floating around hard for the past decade, always wanted to know if it can be verified.

So basically im just chillin with the door closed in my room upstairs with the cat when out of nowhere my door swings open , way harder than a draft would push it or anything of that sort. And the thing that really freaked me out was the instant goosebumps i got and the weird ass faces my cat started making at the door almost as if he could tell something else was in there . Its safe to say he was spooked and so was i 🤣🤣 i cleared the house upstairs and down and there was still nobody home all doors locked and windows were closed . Shit was freaky this is the second time ive had that feeling in this house. When you feel it its like somebody’s watching u but from every angle at once , its a pretty overwhelming feeling to be honest.

    My encounter wasn’t ghosts, but UFO’s.
    Afghanistan, early 2011. We were at Fiddlers Green just south of Marjah. I was Marine Arty. I remember walking back down to the guns with my Ops Chief from the makeshift gym we had and it was around 11 at night. All of a sudden about 6 lights with a faint glow around them appeared off in the SE about a click up and 10 out just appeared. It was such a random pattern but it looked like it had uniformity to it. They stayed there for about a half an hour and sometimes one would fade out and reappear in a different side of their “formation.”
    We went to the Ops O and got on mIRC (chat passed through SIPR for external unit coms) and passed the info along. Every unit within that AO was reporting the same thing and no active Fire Missions through any one of the grunts or Arty.
    We were definitely being observed. It was wild.

      I belive it 100%. I was with my veteran buddy in a field out in the middle of nowhere one night and we watched this thing for like an hour moving in the sky in ways that no fixed wing air craft could do and it would go from a stop to high speed back to a stop instantly. Theres no way it was rotary driven either based on how fast it could accelerate and decelerate. The thing moved in straight lines and could change direction on a dime. It would move straight up, then straight down, side to side, etc. It was fast too, we had jets as a reference for their speed across the sky and this made them look like they were standing still when it would move. He was like idk what that was but I never saw anything move like that in Iraq. It had a steady glow that transition slowly from red to white to a blue/green color. We both were like do we tell people and seem crazy or just keep it quiet. I went from a non believer in Ufo's to a believer real quick that night.

      When I was in middle school, my mom was taking me to basketball practice, which was like 6-7pm, so darkish outside. We got to an intersection, cow fields all around, and theres these lights directly above us. Oriented in a ring, with one in the center that was a tad larger, white in color. It appeared to be low, less than 1000ft. We put the windows down and didnt hear anything... So I had her turn the car and lights off to listen and see better, but there was no silhouette, and still no sound... We just watched it glide/hover away over the trees/hill. Shit was crazy. This was outside Gettysburg, PA. The terrain/time couldnt have made it a hot air balloon either.

    I live in WVa. Once I had a run in with a owl that landed on ground to grab a racoon raiding the trash bag. The thing is this owl was looking down at me and I'm 5'5". We stared at each other for 30 seconds and it took off. It had so much power in its wing the camp fire blew out of Pitt around the camp and put the fire out.
    This was along Appalachian Trail. 4 days 20 miles later what I can only relate to as a evolved prehistoric white Fox. It only observed my camp but this for was at keast 6 feet Long and 4 feet tall on all fours. It was sleek long while hair long tail. This not ghosts or demons but both put fear in me and that not easy to do.

      So me and a SF buddy went on a haitus for a weekend near ape caves about 15yrs ago when I lived in Washington state. It was mid fall and the campground we stayed at was a ghost town we picked the site closest to the caves. The idea was to go up camp survey and hike around relax in nature pretty simple adventure. We got there set up canvas built a fire it got dark so we decided to turn in. Just as we got up from killing the fire a light as bright as a star flew over us and disappeared over the ridge. Let's just say we've both seen plenty of aircraft before neither of us had seen anything like it no profile shape trail or sound just a light. So immediately we we're both a bit bewildered and on edge. The ridge extended maybe 600 out and uphill. Everything went dead quiet soon afterwards no crickets nothing. Then it sounded like something big was coming crashing down the ridge snapping tree branches and dislodging rocks. My buddies best estimate ranged it at about 300 uphill and moving fast. We had two lanterns and a large torch flashlight as illumination. The smashing kept getting closer so we grabbed our rifles assuming it was an elk or bear in distress or on a rampage. It got even closer and soon it would be right in front of us. We both had adjacent positions ready to see what it was... and nothing. Then branches started moving and dirt was getting kicked up around us just out of the light range moving faster than any animal like something circling us. We drew in went kneeling back to back it kept getting closer. When things were clearly being moved within our field of vision I knew it really wasn't right there was nothing visably there. Luckily being lazy we parked close and at this point I suggested we bug out or wind up like the squad in predator. He agreed covered while I scooped up entire tents and crammed them with abandon into the backseat. We rode out got on the highway and as soon as we did thick fog came down out of a clear night sky. I could barely see five feet in front of us hanging out of the window driving looking for center marking. Mind you there's no guardrails up there and cliffs a couple hundred foot sheer. I remember he looked at me and said dude it's like something doesn't want us getting off this mountain... We made it out after crawling down the pass at ten mph then drove about an hour and a half back to civilization. I pulled into a sherry's for some coffee and pancakes to regroup. Imagine two rugged looking mfrs ghost white not speaking sitting in an empty restaurant at 2am. The waitress comes over looks out the window sees the tent sticking out of the back window of our vehicle the only one in the lot... rough night... eh ...nod and empty stares. My buddy to this day still doesn't go camping off grid and doesn't like to talk about the incident. Me idc about tactical retreat pride anymore if it's necessary it's necessary. I live in the desert now and I met a search and rescue guy who quit recently because of what he experienced and saw out in the canyons here. What got me was his story has alot of similarities before ever hearing my story.

One story I heard from David Paulides was about an Idaho hunter who witnessed something, some invisible creature chasing the elk up or near the mountains. They say they actually look like predator in invisible camouflage, similar to heat wave. You'll hear those on the missing 411.

    There's a house in my neighborhood that used to be a church, and I had always heard it was haunted. Well I ended up befriending the person that lived there, and one time we were hanging out and smoking pot in his room. We only had like black lights on and stuff so it was darker in the room, but the hall light was on so you could see light under the door. He had no pets and everybody that was in the house was in his room. Well at some point I looked at the door, and noticed a shadow in the center of the light coming through the bottom of the door. The moment I noticed the shadow it slid to the left, and a couple seconds later the toilet lid fell down from the hallway bathroom.
    Ghosts are real and I guess they still go to the bathroom.

    some years back when I was around 10, i lived in an extremely odd house in BC Canada. Being as young as I was, i didn't have a lot to go by in regards to fear and being uncomfortable, and always chopped it up to being young. I was in constant fear when I was alone, and would stay as close to the giant window closest to the road just so someone might be able to see me if something were to happen.. It wasn't until a few years later when we moved from that house that I was told I wasn't the only one. there are too many stories to mention but here's a brief two.
    My grandfather, a jail guard, war vet, and all around the most stoic and manly dude you've ever met, was changing some lightbulbs at this house while I was at school. Standing on top of a ladder, out of nowhere, he gets this extreme smell of piss and shivers. mind you, middle of summer and no pets. He left then, and simply said "there is something very wrong in that house". After several encounters, actual sightings, and voices, my mother found a local priest to come see if there was anything he felt. My mother isn't religious but what else can you do. They went from having a nice flowing conversation as they were going in and the moment the front door closed behind them. The priest said "something isn't right here", and began to feel extremely nauseous and almost puke. He proceeded to bless every room in the house, and said the energy was strongest in my mothers room where many things happened.
    Shortly after, we moved. And I found all this out then.

    I was night porter in an old hotel West Coast Scotland for 4 years (2015-2019). Living in. Great Western Hotel, Oban Argyll, Western Scottish Highlands. Open ever since 1860. That's a lot of history. Just one from the many cases I had.... On my very last working day we were in the Kitchen with the Scottish second chef and a Spanish waiter. 3 guys from 3 countries bounded team members like the true European spirit. And bang! Out of the blue! We all heard my name shouted across the kitchen with perfect Hungarian no accents what so ever. There was no new staff in the house. We worked together and went into pubs like in the good O'l days before covid as a team. We recognized each-other's voice for God sake! But not this one! In very fact we can't tell you If it was male or female voice. It wasn't gender neutral but somehow other worldly. Our bar manager told me I gonna get use to it. In Scotland old houses talk sometimes. The second chef told me this how those legendary Scottish fairies sounds like. He heard one of them, when he was a little child. That one woke them up one night to give them a warning and this is how his uncle survived a heart attack who was a guest in their home at that time. I also heard their talk in the hotel and in the woods while hiking and bushcraft. That is way different from a place being haunted by human spirits. They have so different vibes. Once you encountered them you gonna feel it.

It was so fucking loud that you could feel every step vibrate the deck we were on, so after it stops we all give each other that same look then jump up and check that both doors were still locked and no one was inside. I’ve always been interested in that stuff and that was my first time experiencing it, pretty funny how damn similar it was to the video you showed. After that experience I ended up living in that place alone for 5 or 6 years with my two dogs and had all sorts of weird experiences so to anyone who doesn’t believe in ghosts, I’m sorry to tell you but yes, they are fucking real!

Last time I stayed there it got worse and worse and the footsteps started traveling into the guest bedroom I was sleeping in and next to the bed. As soon as you would try to fall asleep they would start again. I havent stayed there since. Theres more weird shit that has happened there but we each individually experienced the same exact thing.

    I live in Sparta TN and I experience more supernatural on my land these days than any other time in my life. You best be a believer....
