This is one of the original Tell Me A Ghost Story calls from the early days of the show. Short, raw, and exactly where it all started. This call was later incorporated into a longer compilation episode with full host commentary, if you want the complete experience.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode belongs entirely to Brittany, who called in with a true ghost story from her childhood that is one of the most visually specific and genuinely unsettling real ghost encounters in the entire early archive. The image she describes has not left me since the first time I heard it.

Brittany woke from a nightmare in the middle of the night and did what children do. She got up to find her parents. The route to their room took her past the bay windows, and that is where everything changed. Outside the glass, in the dark, were translucent figures of men. Not shadows. Not shapes. Translucent men with enough visible form that Brittany could see them clearly and could see what they were doing. They were tapping on the glass. Deliberately. Insistently. As if they knew she was there and wanted her to acknowledge it.

One of the figures was slightly behind the others. He was pushing a bicycle. That detail, the man with the bicycle lagging at the edge of the group, is the kind of specific and inexplicable image that cannot be manufactured by a frightened child's imagination because a frightened child's imagination does not produce something that mundane alongside something that terrifying. It is too specific and too strange to be anything other than something Brittany actually saw.

She did not stand there and watch them. She got down on the floor and crawled across the room to get away from the windows, staying below the line of sight the entire way. That is not the behavior of someone who is embellishing a dream. That is the behavior of someone who is genuinely trying not to be seen by something that is already looking for her.

One caller. One true ghost story about translucent men tapping on a bay window at midnight and the child who crawled across the floor to escape them. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode belongs entirely to Maggie from Washington, who called in with a true ghost story about a birthday getaway to Port Townsend that started romantic and ended with her and her husband lying awake in the dark listening to footsteps coming from a floor that did not exist above them.

Port Townsend is one of the most historically documented paranormal destinations in the Pacific Northwest, a Victorian seaport town whose architecture and history have accumulated the kind of layered supernatural activity that draws investigators and skeptics in equal numbers. The Palace Hotel sits at the center of that history. Built as a brothel in the late 1800s, the Palace has one of the most extensively documented haunting records of any hotel in Washington State, with activity reported consistently across decades by guests who had no prior knowledge of the building's history before they checked in.

Maggie and her husband were on the top floor. There were no guests above them. The hotel confirmed it. And yet the footsteps kept coming, slow and deliberate, moving across the ceiling of their room with the specific weight and rhythm of something that knew exactly where it was going. The couple did what most people do in that situation. They tried to explain it away. Old building. Settling wood. Pipes. The Palace Hotel is indeed an old building. But old buildings do not walk.

What Maggie describes in her call is a real ghost encounter that built slowly and then all at once, the specific pattern of haunted hotel activity where the rational explanations run out one by one until there is nothing left but the sound above your head and no one there to be making it.

One caller. One true ghost story from one of the most haunted hotels in the Pacific Northwest. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode has two true ghost stories that both follow the same quiet arc. Something appears. You try to explain it away. And then it does something that makes explaining it away impossible.

Nikki from Cleveland calls in with a real ghost encounter that began in childhood and followed her all the way into adulthood. As a child, she was visited by a ghostly figure in her dreams and in her waking hours, the kind of presence that blurs the line between sleeping and conscious experience in a way that is particularly difficult to dismiss. As an adult, Nikki became a skeptic. She had reasons to doubt what she had seen as a child, and she leaned into those reasons for years. Then something dark appeared in her home, and the skepticism stopped. The prickling sensation on the back of her neck that she describes, that specific physical signal that something is behind you before you have any conscious evidence of it, is one of the most consistently reported paranormal experiences across cultures and one of the hardest to attribute to imagination alone.

Then Yamari returns to Tell Me A Ghost Story with her second call, this time taking us into the wilderness on a hiking trip with her family that became something else entirely. Deep in the mountains, they began hearing drumming. Not distant. Not ambiguous. Drumming that echoed through the trees with no visible source and no explanation that the landscape offered up. The local legend connected to those woods involves a woman who lost her husband and whose spirit is said to still be moving through the trees searching for him. Whether that legend explains what Yamari and her family heard or whether the drumming has its own answer that the legend only partially captures is something this episode does not resolve. It does not need to. The drumming was real. They all heard it. That is enough.

Two real callers. Two true ghost stories about what finds you when you are not looking for it, in a childhood bedroom in Cleveland and on a mountain trail in haunted woods. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode belongs entirely to David, who called in with a true ghost story from his childhood in Connecticut that has stayed with me since the first time I heard it. It starts with a near-death experience. It ends with a question about the woman who appeared after it that David has never been able to answer.

David had an early brush with death as a child. What followed in the wake of that experience was the appearance of a woman he came to think of as his babysitter. She watched over him. She was there when he looked for her and sometimes when he did not. She caused a specific kind of distress in his siblings that she did not seem to cause in David himself, which is one of the details that makes this story genuinely difficult to categorize. Whatever she was, she did not treat everyone in that house the same way.

The relationship between near-death experiences and subsequent paranormal encounters is one of the most consistently documented phenomena in supernatural research. People who have come close to death report seeing, hearing, and being visited by presences that were not accessible to them before at a rate that researchers across both the medical and paranormal fields have struggled to explain away. David's babysitter appeared after his brush with death and never entirely left. Whether she was a guardian, a spirit attached to him specifically, or something with intentions that were never fully revealed is a question this episode raises and deliberately leaves open.

What was her true purpose? Why did she linger? Why did his siblings fear her when David himself did not? One caller. One true ghost story from a Connecticut childhood that begins with almost dying and ends with a woman in the shadows who would not leave. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode has two true ghost stories that both involve the specific terror of something showing up in the night that you did not invite and cannot explain. One caller opened a door deliberately. One had a door opened for her without any warning at all.

Yamari calls in with a real paranormal encounter that starts exactly the way every horror movie about teenagers and Ouija boards starts, because those movies exist for a reason. A group of teens. A Ouija board. The specific combination of curiosity and bravado that makes young people try things that older people have learned not to. What happened to Yamari when that board was opened is not a movie, though. It is a real ghost encounter that she has carried with her ever since and that she describes with the kind of detail that only comes from something you actually lived through rather than something you watched on a screen.

Ouija boards have one of the most documented paranormal histories of any object in American supernatural culture. What makes Yamari's story sit differently from the standard teen Ouija board narrative is what came through and what it wanted, details that the episode delivers far better than any description could.

Then Lia calls in with a haunting experience that required no board, no ritual, and no deliberate invitation of any kind. She woke up at the witching hour, that specific window around 3 AM that appears in paranormal accounts across cultures and centuries with a consistency that researchers find difficult to attribute to coincidence, and she was not alone in her room. Whatever was there with Lia had not been summoned. It had simply arrived. And it was standing there waiting when she opened her eyes.

Two real callers. Two true ghost stories about what finds you in the dark, whether you go looking for it or not. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode belongs entirely to Beth from Kentucky, who called in with a true ghost story rooted so deeply in the landscape and culture of Appalachia that it could not have come from anywhere else. This is a story about a baptism, a whole town gathered at the water, and something that showed up in the photographs that nobody had invited.

Doug's baptism was a community event, the way baptisms tend to be in small Appalachian towns. Everyone came. The whole town turned out to witness it, which means there were a lot of eyes on that water and a lot of cameras capturing the moment. When the photographs were developed, something was in them that had not been visible to any of those eyes when the pictures were taken. Something that had apparently decided to attend as well.

Eerie photographs documenting paranormal phenomena have appeared throughout Appalachian history in numbers that researchers find difficult to dismiss as coincidence or photographic error. The region has one of the richest and most distinctive supernatural traditions in American folk culture, shaped by centuries of Scots-Irish spiritual belief, Cherokee and other Indigenous traditions, and an isolation that allowed those belief systems to develop on their own terms without being smoothed out by outside influence. When something shows up in a photograph in Appalachia, the community tends to know exactly what it is looking at, and Beth's town was no different.

Everyone came to Doug's baptism. Everyone and everything. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began

Hey it's Michelle, and this early episode belongs entirely to Artemis, who called in with a true ghost story about what happened when he checked into a New York City hotel looking for a break from everyday life and found himself sharing the building with something that had no interest in letting him rest.

Artemis was not looking for a paranormal experience. He was looking for a quiet room, a comfortable bed, and a few days away from everything. What he got instead was a hotel full of dead people who apparently had not received the memo that he was there to relax.

The activity Artemis experienced falls squarely into the category of poltergeist phenomena, the specific and well documented class of paranormal activity characterized by objects moving, sounds with no physical source, and a general sense that something in the environment is actively and deliberately making itself known. Poltergeist cases are among the most studied in paranormal research precisely because they tend to leave physical evidence and multiple witnesses, and what Artemis encountered in her New York City hotel room had both.

New York City has one of the richest and most layered paranormal histories of any city in the world, which makes sense when you consider how many people have lived and died within its geography over four centuries of documented history. Hotels in particular tend to accumulate that history in concentrated form. People arrive. People leave. Not always in the order you would expect.

Artemis went looking for a break. He found a real ghost encounter instead. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

Hey, it's Michelle, and what a year. Tell Me A Ghost Story launched in 2023, and the response from listeners was more than I ever expected or dared to hope for. I started this show because I believed that real people had real ghost stories worth hearing, and you proved me right from the very beginning. I am so grateful.

Before we head into 2024, I wanted to look back at three calls from the first season that I have not been able to stop thinking about. Hector from New Mexico and his mysterious scratches appeared at 3:33 AM. Yvonne from the Philippines and the dark figure that chased her up the stairs. And Tyler from Ohio, and the man in the black suit who appeared in his ICU and then simply was not there anymore.

If you have not heard any of these calls yet, they are all in the archive, and they are worth going back for. If you have heard them already, I hope this bonus episode is a chance to sit with them one more time before we move forward.

Thank you for listening. Thank you for calling in. Thank you for believing the callers who trusted us with their stories. I believe them too. I believe you. Keep the calls coming in 2024.

Your DJ of Doom,

Michelle

This is one of the original Tell Me A Ghost Story calls from the early days of the show. Short, raw, and exactly where it all started. These calls were later incorporated into a longer compilation episode with full host commentary if you want the complete experience.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode has two true ghost stories that approach the paranormal from completely different angles. One is deeply unsettling. One is almost comforting. Both of them are real.

Roc calls in about his little sister's imaginary best friend. We all know how that goes on this show. Children who see things adults cannot, who speak to presences that have no physical form, who describe their invisible companions with a specificity and consistency that is hard to write off as imagination. Roc's sister had a friend that no one else could see, and around the time this friend appeared, something else started happening in the house. The pets began dying. One after another with no clear medical explanation. The connection between the invisible friend and what was happening to the animals is something Roc has never been able to fully explain and has never been able to entirely dismiss.

Then Carlo calls in with a ghost story that takes an unexpected turn toward the genuinely useful. His roommate, Daisy, gives him advice. She tells him things. She seems to have opinions about how he is living his life, and she communicates them clearly enough that Carlo has learned to listen. The detail that makes Daisy's story different from a standard haunting is that Carlo is not afraid of her. He has come to think of her as a presence that is looking out for him rather than threatening him. Daisy is a ghost roommate in the most literal sense, and Carlo has made his peace with that arrangement.

Two real callers. Two true ghost stories about the invisible companions we share our spaces with and what happens when we pay attention to them. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

This is one of the original Tell Me A Ghost Story calls from the early days of the show. Short, raw, and exactly where it all started. This call was later incorporated into a longer compilation episode with full host commentary, if you want the complete experience. If you have not heard My Ghost Sister Part One yet, start there first. It will mean more when you get here.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this one is personal. Not just for Yvonne. For me too.

Yvonne has been one of the most beloved callers in Tell Me A Ghost Story history. She has called in from the Philippines across multiple episodes, sharing real ghost encounters that range from terrifying to heartbreaking, a shadowy figure that chased her up the stairs, a doppelganger wearing her mother's face, and the ghost of her sister whose presence she has felt continuing long after her sister's death. This episode is the second half of that sister story, and Yvonne brings it home in a way that I was not entirely prepared for.

Part two of My Ghost Sister is where Yvonne shares what her sister's ongoing presence has meant to her, what it has looked like, what it has felt like, and what she believes it means about what happens after we die. This is not a terrifying ghost story in the traditional sense. It is something quieter and more profound than that. It is a true ghost story about love that refuses to end and a bond between sisters that apparently does not recognize the difference between the living and the dead.

This may have been Yvonne's last call to the show. I hope it was not. Either way, I am grateful she trusted us with this story, and I am grateful to every listener who has followed her calls from the beginning. You are the reason this show exists, and this episode is proof of what it can be at its best.

One returning caller. One true ghost story about grief, love, and a sister who never really left. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode is one of my favorites in the entire archive because it does something most paranormal podcast episodes never attempt. It connects a real ghost encounter happening right now in a real person's dining room to a documented legend that is almost four hundred years old. Nellie called in and sent me down a rabbit hole I am still thinking about.

Nellie is back. If you have been following her story across the early episodes of this show, you already know her haunted childhood home has been revealing itself one room at a time. The kitchen. The bathroom. The bedroom. Now the dining room. Nellie spotted a Woman in White standing there, a figure so specific in its appearance and its energy that it sent her looking for answers about what exactly a Woman in White is and where the legend comes from.

Here is what I found. The first documented tale of a Woman in White spirit in Western culture appeared in Germany in 1625, making this one of the oldest recorded ghost archetypes in European paranormal history. The figure appears across dozens of cultures under different names, but the details are remarkably consistent across all of them. White clothing. Female. Tied to grief, betrayal, or a violent and unresolved death. Seen most often in or near places she was connected to in life.

The most famous specific figure associated with the legend is Kunigunda of Orlamunde, a noblewoman whose story involves love, loss, and an act so terrible that her spirit has reportedly never found rest. Kunigunda's legend has persisted for centuries across Germany and Central Europe, and researchers have connected her story to Woman in White sightings reported long after her death. Whether Nellie's dining room visitor is Kunigunda specifically or simply another manifestation of one of history's oldest and most persistent supernatural archetypes is a question this episode does not answer. That is the point.

One returning caller. One true ghost story that reaches four hundred years into European paranormal history. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

Hey it's Michelle, and this early episode has two real ghost encounters from two completely different worlds that share one thing in common. Multiple witnesses. In both of these true ghost stories the person calling was not alone when it happened, and that is the detail that makes them impossible to dismiss.

Tyler from Ohio was an ICU nurse, and if you have ever wondered whether the paranormal shows up in hospital settings, the answer, based on what nurses and doctors report privately, is yes, more than most people realize. Tyler calls in with his own real ghost encounter involving a man in a black suit who appeared in the ICU in a way that had no clinical explanation. The man was there. And then he was not. Tyler has spent a career in rooms where people cross over, and this was different from anything else he had witnessed in that building.

Natalia from Norwalk calls in with a haunting experience at Turnbull Canyon, one of the most documented paranormal locations in Southern California. Turnbull Canyon has a history that runs deep and dark, connected to a plane crash, a psychiatric hospital, and decades of reported supernatural activity that has drawn investigators and skeptics alike for generations. Natalia and her friend saw something moving in the mist that night that stopped them cold. Then a police officer on the scene saw it too. When the witness is a cop with no reason to report a paranormal encounter and every reason not to, it changes the nature of the story entirely.

Two real callers. Two true ghost stories with multiple witnesses. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

This is one of the original Tell Me A Ghost Story calls from the early days of the show. Short, raw, and exactly where it all started. These calls were later incorporated into a longer compilation episode with full host commentary if you want the complete experience.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode brings back two of the most beloved callers in Tell Me A Ghost Story history. If you have been listening from the beginning, you already know Nellie and Yvonne. If this is your first time meeting them, you are in for something special.

Nellie has called in before about her haunted childhood home, a house that gave her more than enough true ghost stories for multiple episodes. This time, she takes us back to the kitchen, where something was moving around that had no business being there. Nellie's home is one of those places that reveals itself slowly, one room at a time, and the kitchen is where things got harder to explain away.

Yvonne introduces us to someone very important in this call. Her sister. Except her sister is not alive. Yvonne shares what it has been like to feel her sister's presence continuing after her death, a ghost story that is less about fear and more about the kind of love that apparently does not recognize the boundary between the living and the dead. This is part one of Yvonne's ghost sister story, and it is one of the most quietly powerful calls we have ever received.

Two returning callers. Two true ghost stories that remind us why this show exists. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

This is one of the original Tell Me A Ghost Story calls from the early days of the show. Short, raw, and exactly where it all started. This call was later incorporated into a longer compilation episode with full host commentary, if you want the complete experience.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this episode belongs entirely to Liz from Brooklyn, who called in with a true ghost story that is unlike almost anything else in our archive. It is part haunted house story, part paranormal investigation, part ritual, and it ends with flowers left for the dead on the grounds of a haunted mansion that used to be something much darker than a hotel.

Liz and her friend David were staying at a mansion turned hotel that looked beautiful from the outside and felt deeply wrong on the inside. The atmosphere in David's room, in particular, carried the kind of presence that is hard to name but impossible to ignore. Something was in there with them, and it was not subtle about it.

David's boyfriend is a medium, and when they described what they were experiencing, he did not hesitate. The mansion was not just haunted in the general sense. It was full. Numerous spirits connected to the property's history, a history that included child labor and tragedy, which the architecture did not advertise. The medium's advice was specific. Find a place on the grounds to leave flowers. Honor the ones buried there. Acknowledge them.

What followed was Liz and David searching the property for the right spot, navigating their fear with the kind of dark humor that tends to emerge when two people are genuinely scared and trying not to show it, and eventually finding their way to something that felt like the right place. After they left the flowers, the atmosphere shifted. Not dramatically. But enough.

This is a real ghost encounter about what happens when you stop trying to ignore the dead and start acknowledging them instead. Liz called it one of the strangest and most meaningful experiences of her life. I believe her completely.

One caller. One true ghost story from a haunted mansion in Brooklyn. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode has three real callers whose true ghost stories share one thread running through all of them. Something was there that had no explanation and no intention of leaving quietly.

Carl from Texas calls in with a haunting that happened in the last place most people expect to feel afraid. His church. Carl and his cousin encountered a shadowy figure moving through the building during what should have been an ordinary visit. Churches have some of the most documented paranormal histories of any building type across cultures, partly because of the weight of grief and ritual that accumulates in them over generations, and partly because whatever lingers there knows the space as well as the living do. Carl's encounter was brief. It was enough.

Then Hector from New Mexico calls in with something that has been happening to him for years and that he cannot explain away, no matter how hard he tries. Mysterious scratches appear on his body. Always around 3:33 AM, the hour that paranormal researchers and religious traditions across cultures have long associated with supernatural activity, sometimes called the witching hour or the devil's hour, depending on the tradition. Hector has no history of sleepwalking. The scratches are real. They keep coming back.

And Yvonne from the Philippines returns with another haunting memory from her childhood, this one involving a figure she mistook completely for her brother. She saw him. She recognized him. She spoke to him. When she found her actual brother, he had not been home at any point that evening. Whatever Yvonne saw in that house that night was wearing her brother's face, and it was not her brother.

Three real callers. Three true ghost stories. A church, a bedroom at 3:33 AM, and a figure that looked exactly like someone who was not there. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

This is one of the original Tell Me A Ghost Story calls from the early days of the show. Short, raw, and exactly where it all started. This call was later incorporated into a longer compilation episode.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this episode belongs entirely to Tyler from Texas, who called in with two true ghost stories from two completely different parts of the world that share one deeply unsettling detail. In both of them, something was watching him, and it was not human.

Tyler's first story takes place in the remote wilderness of Arnhem Land in Australia, one of the most ancient and spiritually significant landscapes on earth. Tyler and a friend were camped there when they heard a scream that had no business coming from anything living. Then they saw a face in the shadows at the edge of their camp. Not an animal. Not a person. Something else entirely was watching them from the dark. When they investigated, there were no tracks. No signs of anything that could have been there. Nothing to explain what they had seen or heard.

Then Tyler takes us back home to Oak Cliff in Dallas, Texas, where a car accident outside his apartment building claimed three lives in a single night. What followed in the weeks after was a haunting that built slowly and then all at once. Strange noises. An overwhelming presence. The specific sensation of being watched by something that was deciding what to do next. A priest came. The activity seemed to ease. Then a new tenant named Keith moved in, and whatever had been there appeared to leave with no explanation. Tyler has spent a long time thinking about whether the spirit was drawn to his solitude specifically and whether Keith's arrival simply gave it somewhere else to go.

Two real ghost encounters. One caller. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began

This is one of the original Tell Me A Ghost Story calls from the early days of the show. Short, raw, and exactly where it all started. These calls were later incorporated into a longer compilation episode.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode is another one where I am not just hosting. I am in it. I start with my own real ghost encounter from a road trip that I have never been able to explain, and then Yvonne from the Philippines calls in with a doppelganger story that is one of the most quietly terrifying things I have ever heard on this show.

I was staying at the Best Western in Fresno, California, on what was supposed to be a completely ordinary road trip. I woke up to find a man standing over me. He was right there. And then he was gone. No one else in the room saw him enter. No one saw him leave. The door had not opened. I have thought about that moment many times since, and I still do not have an answer for it.

Then Yvonne calls in from the Philippines with a haunting memory involving her mother. She saw her mother across the room, recognized her completely, and followed her. When she found her actual mother, the figure she had been following was gone. What Yvonne encountered is what many cultures call a doppelganger, an exact double of a living person, and in the traditions of many cultures, including those of the Philippines, seeing one is considered a serious omen. Yvonne had no idea what she was looking at until it was already gone.

Doppelgangers are among the most consistently documented paranormal phenomena across world cultures. Ancient Egyptian, Norse, Finnish, and Filipino traditions all have names for them, and all treat them with the same gravity. Yvonne's encounter connects to something much older and much wider than one phone call to a ghost story podcast.

Two real stories. One from your host. One from a caller who followed something that looked exactly like her mother and found no one there. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

This is one of the original Tell Me A Ghost Story calls from the early days of the show. Short, raw, and exactly where it all started. These calls were later incorporated into a longer compilation episode with full host commentary if you want the complete experience.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode has three real ghost encounters from three different locations that share one thing in common. In every single one of them, something was there that should not have been.

Nellie calls in with two paranormal experiences from the same house. First, a mysterious little girl with black hair appeared in her bedroom, watching her from across the room. Then something was peeking through her shower curtain. Nellie's home was not old or notorious or historically significant. It was just a house. And that is somehow the part that makes it most unsettling.

Heather takes us to the Grand Hotel in Jerome, Arizona, one of the most documented haunted hotels in the American Southwest. Jerome itself was a copper mining town built on a hillside, and it has a history of violence, disease, and sudden death that runs deep. Heather was in her room when a ghostly voice told her to turn down the TV. There was no TV on. There was nothing to turn down. The voice knew she was there anyway.

And Yvonne calls in from a memory that has never left her, a visit to her aunt's house in the Philippines, where an ominous dark figure appeared and chased her up the stairs. Shadow figures appear across cultures and across centuries, and Yvonne's encounter in the Philippines connects to a long tradition of documented supernatural experiences in that region that predate Western paranormal research by generations.

Three callers. Three real ghost stories from three corners of the world. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this episode belongs entirely to Edwin Covarrubias, founder of Scary FM, who called in with a true ghost story from his own childhood that unfolds like a slow-burning horror film. Edwin did not want his house to be haunted. It was anyway.

It started when Edwin's family moved from a cramped apartment into a spacious house with a backyard and a dog, the kind of move that should feel like a fresh start. The first sign that something was wrong came in the bathroom, where a dark blue, towel-like object floated in the corner with no explanation. Edwin told his father. They investigated. They found nothing.

Then his father discovered a red balloon in the yard. When it burned away, it revealed an old coin underneath. Dead birds began appearing around the property with no clear cause. Eerie sounds moved through the house at night. Each incident on its own could be explained away. Together, they built it into something that Edwin could not ignore and could not rationalize.

The moment that ended any remaining doubt was the night Edwin saw a bright light coming from inside his closet. What followed were sleepless nights and a relationship with the paranormal that has never entirely left him. Edwin went on to dedicate his career to ghost stories and supernatural storytelling. This childhood home is a significant part of why.

One caller. One true ghost story that starts with a floating object and ends with a light in the dark. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode is a little different from most because I am not just hosting this one. I am in it. I start with one of my own real ghost encounters, and then two listeners call in with true ghost stories that could not be more different from each other. One is terrifying. One will break your heart a little.

I was working as a photographer in a house filled with the kind of HomeGoods decor that already makes you feel like something is slightly off. And then something rushed past me from behind. No one was there. I felt it before I could explain it, and I have not stopped thinking about it since. This was my first real paranormal encounter, and it is the one that made me understand why people call this show.

Then Nellie calls in with a haunting memory from her childhood home. A woman weeping somewhere in the house. Sorrowful and persistent and tied to the spirit of an elderly woman who had lived there before Nellie's family moved in. Nellie's story is one of those real ghost encounters that is less about fear and more about the emotional weight that spirits can carry with them long after they are gone.

And finally, Maggie shares a vivid dream that felt nothing like a dream. Her friend Liz had died in a car accident, and Liz came back, just once, to say goodbye. Maggie believes it completely, and after hearing how she describes it, I do too. Some of the most powerful true ghost stories we receive are not about terror at all. They are about love that does not know how to end.

Three real stories. One from your host. Two from listeners who called in and trusted us with something deeply personal. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode has three true ghost stories that could not be more different from each other. The ancient origins of Halloween and why the veil between worlds gets thin. A listener who felt a presence that simply would not leave. And haunted dolls that do things dolls are not supposed to do.

The Halloween Tree takes its name from Ray Bradbury's chilling exploration of Halloween's origins, and this segment traces the ancient rituals that gave the holiday its power, the idea that certain nights of the year genuinely attract spirits from beyond and always have. This is the history underneath the costumes and the candy, and it is darker than most people realize.

Then a listener calls in with a real paranormal encounter about a spirit that lingered long past the point of comfort. Creaking floorboards. The unmistakable feeling of being watched from the dark. The specific unease of knowing something is still there and not knowing what it wants. If you have ever felt a presence in a room that should have been empty, this one will stay with you.

And finally, haunted dolls. Real accounts of cursed objects that move, watch, and make themselves known in ways that cannot be explained away. Dolls have appeared in paranormal cases across cultures for centuries, and the stories surrounding them remain some of the most consistently documented supernatural phenomena we have on record. These are not the ones from the movies. These are real.

Three true ghost stories. One episode that covers Halloween, lingering spirits, and haunted objects all in one sitting.

This is the ORIGINAL Tell Me A Ghost Story episode with calls from the early days of the show. Short, raw, and exactly where it all started. These three calls were later incorporated into a longer compilation (soon to be video) episode with more ghost stories, called Deluxe.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode features three real callers whose true ghost stories span the paranormal West Coast. A childhood haunting in Los Angeles. A sleep demon in Washington. And a séance at a college theatre in Seattle that went further than anyone expected.

Greg from Los Angeles takes us back to his childhood in a haunted house where he came face to face with a Lady in White. The Lady in White is one of the most documented ghostly figures across cultures worldwide, a spirit almost always tied to loss and betrayal, and Greg's encounter with her is as personal and unsettling as any we have received.

Joe from Washington calls in with a real sleep paralysis experience that goes beyond the clinical explanation. Lying completely unable to move while a dark presence loomed over him, claiming it was there to help. Joe's account connects to centuries of documented encounters with sleep demons across cultures, and his version of it is one of the most chilling we have heard.

And Deborah from Seattle describes what happened during a séance at Fort Wright College with a group of theatre students who were not entirely prepared for what answered back. Eerie sounds. Unexpected responses. And a room full of people who went in curious and came out changed.

Three real callers. Three true ghost stories. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.

Throughout this episode of Tell Me A Ghost Story, I weave together these listener-submitted ghost stories through haunting phone calls, exploring themes of persistent hauntings, mysterious encounters, and the supernatural bonds that endure beyond death. From a mortuary-turned-apartment in Michigan to legendary roadside spirits in New York to Hollywood's most loyal ghost dog, these real ghost stories showcase the diverse and deeply personal nature of paranormal experiences.

True ghost stories from real people featured in this episode:

1. Tony from Ypsilanti, Michigan -- The Victorian Mortuary Turned Apartment I'm taking you to Ypsilanti, Michigan, in the early 1990s, where Tony and his girlfriend experienced relentless paranormal activity in a Victorian home that once served as a mortuary. Imagine living in a haunted house where bread mysteriously moves between cabinets, showers turn on by themselves, and invisible footsteps fill empty rooms. Tony shares chilling details about beds shaking, the overwhelming scent of lilacs in winter, and the night he and his girlfriend fled to a hotel after hearing what sounded like ten people walking through their apartment—when no one else was home. They discovered a trap door system that once functioned as an elevator from the basement to the top floor, and their camcorder mysteriously shut off during recording attempts. The most unsettling part? When Tony returned ten years later, new tenants reported experiencing the same supernatural encounters.

2. Angela from Upstate New York -- The Woman in White on Route 9 Angela shares a terrifying encounter on Route 9 at 2 AM that still haunts her three years later. Driving home in complete darkness, she encountered a woman in a long white dress standing motionless in the middle of the road. As Angela tried to help, a man emerged from the trees and began approaching her car. The woman's face was wrong, her mouth too large, her eyes like black holes. Angela fled the scene and called the police, who found nothing but revealed she wasn't the first person to report seeing a woman in white on that stretch of road. This chilling real ghost story explores the terrifying question: was it a supernatural encounter with a legendary ghost, or criminals using local folklore to prey on travelers? 

3. Tessa from Los Angeles, California -- Kabar: The Ghost Dog Still Waiting Tessa recounts a deeply moving supernatural encounter at the Los Angeles Pet Cemetery in Calabasas, where Rudolph Valentino's beloved Doberman, Kabar, is buried. After learning the heartbreaking story of a dog who died of grief in 1929 waiting for his famous owner to return, Tessa knelt by the grave and called Kabar's name. What happened next defies explanation. She felt a cold, wet sensation on her hand, exactly like a dog's affectionate nuzzle and lick. Her hand was visibly damp with no logical source, and she heard a happy whine in response to her praise. This touching true ghost story explores the enduring loyalty of animals and spirits that transcend death. Dozens of visitors have reported identical experiences at Kabar's grave, suggesting this good boy has been faithfully waiting for almost a century. 

Whether you're drawn to haunted house stories, eerie roadside encounters, or touching tales of animal spirits, this episode delivers authentic supernatural storytelling perfect for spooky season, Halloween, or any night you crave genuine, real-life ghost stories and paranormal encounters. These aren't just creepy tales; they're true paranormal stories from real people experiencing the unexplained. 

Join me as I explore hauntings that span decades, spirits that wait eternally, and the unsettling question of what's real and what's legend.

Throughout this episode of Tell Me A Ghost Story, I weave together these listener-submitted ghost stories through haunting phone calls, exploring themes of what follows us back from death, objects with malevolent intentions, spirits attached to locations, and entities that watch from impossible places. From near-death consequences in Colorado to possessed clowns to protective Civil War battlefields, these true ghost stories showcase the disturbing variety of paranormal experiences that people encounter.

True ghost stories from real people featured in this episode:

1. Tyler from Colorado -- The Voice That Came Back From Drowning Tyler shares a deeply unsettling paranormal experience that began after his kayaking accident left him clinically dead for three minutes. Since being revived, he's been experiencing disturbing phenomena, but here's what makes this truly terrifying: other people are experiencing it too. His roommate heard Tyler's voice calling from an empty bedroom while Tyler sat right beside him. His girlfriend heard it coming from his car while he stood next to her. His own father heard it from the basement. Most chilling of all, Tyler himself has heard his own voice calling to him from empty rooms. He also sees patches of "glitching air" that look like TV static, and his friend Marissa witnessed one materialize at a coffee shop. This haunting true paranormal story explores what happens when you come back from death, and what might come back with you. A deeply disturbing real ghost story about near-death experiences and their supernatural consequences.

2. Emma -- The Life-Sized Clown That Wouldn't Stay Gone Emma recounts a childhood nightmare involving a life-sized knitted clown her cousins purchased from a thrift store. The clown would move on its own, appearing in different rooms despite being locked away. When they finally locked it in outdoor dog kennels, it was found inside the house the next morning, sitting on the couch. But the most terrifying moment came when Emma, her sister, and their cousins saw the clown running, like a human, through tall grass 50 meters away before vanishing completely. When they checked, it was no longer on their uncle's truck, where he'd placed it for disposal. The clown was never seen again, but the mystery remains: where did it go, and what caused it to move? A chilling true ghost story about possessed objects and supernatural encounters that defy explanation.

3. Carlos from San Antonio, Texas -- Danny Still Works the Night Shift Carlos shares his brief but terrifying experience working the night shift at a 24-hour diner off I-10. On his first day, his manager showed him a memorial shrine for Danny, a beloved cook who died of a heart attack in 2015, and casually warned him, "You'll see him sometimes. Just acknowledge him." Carlos thought it was a joke until his second week, when he encountered a figure in a cook's uniform blocking the walk-in freezer doorway at 3 AM. The figure's face was blurred, like it had been smudged out of a photograph. Following his manager's advice, Carlos said hello to Danny, and the apparition stepped aside to let him pass. Other employees treated these encounters as completely normal, but after three weeks of paranormal activity, Carlos quit. A real-life ghost story about workplace hauntings and spirits who never clock out.

4. Jenna from Boise, Idaho -- The Red Eyes Outside Her Third-Floor Window Jenna describes a two-month nightmare involving two red eyes that appear outside her third-floor apartment window every night around 11:30 PM. Despite being three stories up with no balcony, fire escape, or ledge, just a sheer drop to the parking lot, these glowing red eyes hover and stare through her window with malevolent intent. Her boyfriend witnessed them too, and shockingly, her neighbor on the second floor has been seeing the same red eyes outside her window for months. The eyes don't appear on camera, but they're visible to the naked eye. Most disturbing, they're getting closer—now pressing right up against the glass with light tapping sounds. Jenna has started sleeping in her living room and plans to break her lease. She discovered the previous tenant had fled suddenly in the middle of the night. This terrifying supernatural story explores malevolent entities that watch, wait, and won't leave.

5. Marcus from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania -- The Battlefield That Refuses to Be Photographed Marcus, a professional photographer, recounts his eerie experience at Triangular Field near Devil's Den in Gettysburg. While attempting to photograph the Civil War battlefield at golden hour, all of his high-end camera equipment simultaneously stopped working, multiple cameras, backup batteries, and even his phone. The moment he stepped away from the field, everything powered back on perfectly. Later research revealed dozens of similar reports: cameras malfunction at Triangular Field, photos come out blank or washed out, and visitors feel watched by unseen presences. Marcus experienced an overwhelming sensation of being observed by many eyes from the rocks, trees, and the field itself. 

6. Tony from North Dakota -- The Clown in the Ceiling Who Made Deals Tony shares a disturbing childhood memory of a clown doll that would speak to him every night from a hatch in his ceiling. The clown was friendly, listening to Tony vent about his day and having conversations—but with one terrifying rule: if Tony slept with his hands or feet outside the blanket, the clown would come down and take them. To this day, Tony cannot sleep with his limbs uncovered. This only happened in one specific house, ruling out hallucination.

Hosted by Michelle Newman | Tell Me A Ghost Story 

In this chilling episode of Tell Me A Ghost Story, I'm sharing true paranormal stories from real phone calls, modern ghost stories about demon lambs, forest guardians, hurricane warnings, urban legends turned real, and unsolved disappearances. These are real ghost encounters told by the voices who lived them.

🐑 John from Little Rock shares an uncanny childhood encounter with something he calls "demon lambs" on Spar Hill. At 11 years old, exploring a rural hill known for supernatural activity and will-o'-the-wisps, he lost track of time and found himself followed by lamb-like creatures with bright red eyes and snapping teeth. What started as one became three, closing in until he tumbled down the hillside to escape. This eerie story raises the question: what lurks in remote places where swamp gas and fireballs appear? A true ghost story about creatures that don't belong in our world.

🔥 Jake, a fire lookout from Missoula, Montana, tells a haunting story from the Bitterroot National Forest. Working alone in an observation tower at 7,000 feet, he spotted a mysterious white light moving through the woods at 2 AM. Following it, he encountered a woman in a clearing surrounded by soft light, a ghost who led him deeper into the wilderness, fading as they walked until she brought him to a burned-out cabin where her family died in a 2008 wildfire. Her whispered "thank you" on the wind suggests she'd been waiting years for someone to remember them. This real paranormal story is a reminder that some spirits just need to be witnessed.

🌊 Brenda from Charleston shares her encounter with the Grey Man of Pawleys Island before Hurricane Matthew in 2016. Standing on her deck as the hurricane approached, she saw a man in all grey walking the beach, the legendary Grey Man who had appeared before major hurricanes since 1822. The overwhelming sense of dread made her evacuate immediately. Hurricane Matthew destroyed her entire neighborhood, wiping her house off its foundation, but she and her neighbors survived because they heeded the Grey Man's warning. This supernatural story blurs the line between folklore and life-saving intervention.

👤 Mark from Brooklyn tells the true crime story of Cropsey, Staten Island's boogeyman, who turned out to be real. The legend described an escaped mental patient with a hook hand living in tunnels under the abandoned Willowbrook State School. But when children actually started disappearing in the '70s and '80s, police arrested Andre Rand—a former Willowbrook janitor who was abducting children and living in the woods around the property. Mark and his friend encountered a man watching them from the trees weeks before Rand's arrest, and he still doesn't know if it was the real killer. This ghost story became a real paranormal nightmare when folklore and true crime merged into one terrifying reality.

Each phone call in this paranormal podcast captures real ghost encounters, ghosts and hauntings, and true ghost stories that connect us through the unexplainable. Whether it's demonic creatures, protective spirits, legendary warnings, or unsolved disappearances, these real paranormal stories remind us that the line between folklore and reality is thinner than we think.

Perfect for Halloween listening, spooky season, or anytime you want haunted stories and supernatural encounters told through authentic phone calls. If you love telling ghost stories, real-life ghost stories, or paranormal stories from ordinary people experiencing something uncanny, this episode delivers eerie stories that will stay with you.

Call in your own ghost story, paranormal encounter, or haunting experience. This is a paranormal podcast built on your voices, your real ghost stories, your experiences with spirits and the supernatural.

Hosted by Michelle Newman | Tell Me A Ghost Story 

In this haunting episode of Tell Me A Ghost Story, I'm sharing true paranormal stories from real phone calls, modern ghost stories about things that follow us, prayers with deadly power, and legends that still terrorize. These are real ghost encounters told by the voices who lived them.

👻 Christina from Phoenix shares an uncanny experience about something that's followed her everywhere she's lived. Real-life ghost stories about shadow figures, exploding glass, and doorknobs that shake as if something's trying to get in. Her husband and best friend both say the paranormal activity started when she entered their lives. This true ghost story explores what it means when hauntings follow you from place to place — a real paranormal story that raises questions about why some people attract spirits.

🙏 Helen from Mississippi tells a chilling ghost story about her Uncle John, a respected church deacon whose prayers seemed dangerously powerful. When his daughter's fiancé died suddenly after Uncle John prayed about the engagement, Helen started noticing a pattern. Her aunt's terrified words, "there have been others", suggest something far darker than divine intervention. This supernatural story blurs the line between faith and something sinister.

💙 Donny, a hospice nurse from New Mexico, shares a true paranormal story that isn't scary but deeply moving. His friend Nikki, who had Down Syndrome, spent his final morning crying because he heard his mother calling him home for dinner, but couldn't remember how to get there. He died right before lunch that day. This real ghost story reminds us that paranormal encounters aren't always frightening; sometimes they're about loved ones guiding us home.

🚗 Dimitri calls from Chicago with a ghost story from Cold War Poland, the legend of the Black Volga, known as Satan's limousine. This black car with white curtains would prowl Eastern European streets, and if it stopped, whoever was inside would grab passersby, especially children, never to be seen again. Was it the KGB? human trafficking? Organ thieves? Or the devil himself? Dimitri saw it as a child and barely escaped. This eerie story explores how real paranormal legends emerge from historical trauma and disappearances.

👤 Cindy Ketron shares a family ghost story passed down from her great-grandpa: The Decapitated Man's Ghost. During a wake in the early 1900s, men playing cards with a farmer's headless body were joined by an unexpected guest: the decapitated man's ghost himself, sitting down to play. This haunted story proves that sometimes the dead don't realize they're gone, and old supernatural stories have a way of sticking with us.

Each phone call in this paranormal podcast captures real ghost encounters, ghosts and hauntings, and true ghost stories that blur the line between the living and the dead. Whether you believe in spirits or approach these as spooky storytelling, these real paranormal stories connect us through shared experiences with the unexplainable.

Perfect for Halloween listening, spooky season, or anytime you want haunted stories and ghost encounters told through authentic phone calls. If you love telling ghost stories, real-life ghost stories, or paranormal stories from ordinary people who've experienced something uncanny, this episode delivers supernatural stories that will stay with you.

Hosted by Michelle Newman | Tell Me A Ghost Story

In this chilling new episode of Tell Me A Ghost Story, I'm sharing true paranormal stories from a place that was deeply personal to me, apartment 3F in San Francisco's Mission District. These are real ghost encounters experienced by multiple people, including myself, all centered around the same supernatural presence. These are modern ghost stories about a home that meant everything to our friend group... and the spirit who lived there with us.

🏠 Apartment 3F was our hub, the heart of our late twenties friend group, a home away from home. Anytime you needed a place to crash, there was always room at Sarah's place. But here's the thing: no one who lived there would confirm there was a ghost. Not until years later, when we all finally realized we'd been experiencing the same haunting and just never talked about it.

👻 I'm sharing my own real-life ghost story, the night I came home from a comedy show at 2 or 3 in the morning and walked face-to-face into the gray woman in the kitchen. Frizzy hair, gray sweater, gray skirt, sensible shoes. We were eye level. I think I startled her as much as she startled me. And then, blip, she was gone. This paranormal encounter was what finally got us all talking.

🛏️ My friend Sarah, who owned the apartment, reluctantly shares her true ghost stories she'd kept quiet for years. The woman who watched her sleep. The presence that crawled into bed with her. The things she still won't talk about because she doesn't want to give them attention. Her haunted story is told with real hesitation; you can hear how much she doesn't want to feed whatever was living there.

💍 Alex, Sarah's roommate, tells her ghost story with a different energy — jewelry mysteriously falling to the floor, being watched in bed night after night, until she finally got so fed up she yelled at the spirit to GET OUT. And it actually worked. Sometimes you just have to claim your space back from the supernatural.

📞 I've also included phone calls from six other people who experienced the same entity, fleeting glimpses in the kitchen, corner-of-the-eye sightings, the woman standing by the sink at 2 AM. Each caller adds another layer to this haunting, proving this wasn't just our imagination. This was real paranormal activity witnessed by people who'd never even met each other. 

This episode weaves together ghost encounters, eerie stories, and haunted house experiences into one cohesive supernatural story. It's about a place where spirits linger, where friends saw the same presence but were too afraid to talk about it until we'd all moved on and could finally share the truth.

Whether you're a believer in ghosts and hauntings, a skeptic curious about real ghost stories, or just here for spooky storytelling during spooky season, this paranormal podcast episode captures that space between the living and the dead. It's perfect for Halloween listening or any time you want true paranormal stories told through intimate phone calls and personal confessions.

If you love haunted stories, supernatural encounters, real-life ghost stories, or hearing from people who've lived through something unexplainable, this is your invitation to turn down the lights and listen. Because apartment 3F wasn't just haunted — it was home to all of us. And to her.

Hosted by Michelle Newman | Tell Me A Ghost Story Podcast

In this chilling new episode of Tell Me A Ghost Story, we’re diving into true paranormal stories shared through real phone calls, eerie confessions from ordinary people who’ve come face-to-face with something they can’t explain. These are modern ghost stories, told by the voices who lived them.

🌲 Stevie from California shares a haunting encounter deep in the woods near Yosemite — a night of howling wind, a barking dog, and mysterious handprints left on every window of her locked car. Was it a ghost, or something far more human lurking in the dark?

🎸 Johnny from Kansas tells a supernatural story about channeling the spirit of the late guitarist Randy Rhoads — a spectral presence that seems to appear whenever his music is played. This isn’t just a haunting; it’s a duet between the living and the dead.

🍸 Frank the Bartender remembers the spirit of a former homeowner who didn’t seem to realize he was gone — a ghostly roommate who tinkered in the basement until Frank finally demanded peace. Sometimes, ghosts just need to be told to let the living sleep.

👧 Emily recounts the night her young twins both saw “the girl in the corner,” smiling but unmoving — a terrifying haunting that leaves you wondering: who are our children really talking to when they say they see someone?

💨 Aaron from Indiana gives us one of those quiet, bone-deep paranormal encounters: the sound of a sigh — right beside him in bed, in an empty, locked house. Just breath, presence, and chilling tension in the dark.

🚗 Jess from Oregon retells the Pacific Northwest’s most famous roadside legend — The Bandage Man of Cannon Beach. A ghostly figure wrapped in bloody bandages is said to appear on Highway 101, pounding on car windows before vanishing into the fog.

💀 Cynthia from Indiana brings a story passed down through her family — The Elderly Lady and Her Bag of Bones. A mysterious woman with a black cat and a bag full of human remains vanishes into thin air, echoing legends like El Silbón, the South American spirit doomed to wander the earth carrying his sins on his back.

Each caller’s voice captures that liminal space between fear and curiosity, where the living meet the lingering. Whether you’re a believer, a skeptic, or just here for the storytelling, this episode weaves together ghost encounters, haunted dreams, and true paranormal stories with the intimate tone Tell Me A Ghost Story is known for.

If you love ghosts and hauntings, true ghost stories, real-life ghost stories, or paranormal podcasts filled with spooky storytelling and personal confessions, this episode is your invitation to turn down the lights, press play, and listen closely.

This week on Tell Me A Ghost Story, I, Michelle Newman, your host, bring you another collection of real ghost stories told directly through your phone calls. These aren’t campfire tales; they’re true ghost stories that listeners lived, and now share with us on this paranormal podcast.

Anna from Tacoma tells of a family ashtray that mysteriously filled with cigarette ash one afternoon, then followed the next day by a shocking local crime tied to cigarettes. Don't smoke, kids.

Marshall in Florida shares a late-night haunting when his bedroom door slammed shut at 2:40 a.m., the room dropping cold around him.

Donnie, a hospice nurse, recalls hearing a dead patient’s voice say “thank you”, proving good manners are important even after death. 

Julia’s young son claims he talks to “the lady in the corner,”  an old-fashioned woman who smiles but never moves, and who told him not to tell his mom. 

From Hollywood, Jimmy describes the dark, unsettling energy of a famous actor, sparking rumors of a deal with the devil. 

And Christina from Phoenix shares her haunted tale of working in a medical office where a tall man appeared at the foot of her chair during a nap, a figure she still glimpses from the corner of her eye.

This week's episode delves into haunting dreams and true ghost stories. On Tell Me A Ghost Story, the calls take us everywhere, from the shadowy corners of old inns to childhood bedrooms heavy with dread.

Our first caller, who wishes to remain anonymous, takes us to the Bush House Inn in Washington State. What started as a hiking getaway turned into something unforgettable when she dreamt her husband had died, only to later discover her vision matched the inn’s most famous ghost story. Was it just a coincidence, or a case of a *place-memory haunting*, where history bleeds into the dreams of its guests?

From Chicago, Emily shares a haunting tale of being tapped awake at night, convinced it was her cat. But when she got up, the cat was nowhere near her… and the front door stood wide open. Who—or what—wanted her attention?

Next, comedian Sabrina Wu calls in with memories of her childhood home in Michigan, where certain rooms always radiated a malevolent energy. Was it just bad feng shui, or something darker? Even her mother seemed to sense it, filling the house with sage-scented candles. Sabrina’s story reminds us how family homes can carry not only memories, but also energies that linger long after childhood ends.

Then Pastor Elijah from Tennessee takes us inside what the locals call the *cursed house* by the railroad tracks. Asked to pray over the home, he encountered something that wasn’t the Lord standing with him. A shadow man on the wall, heavy footsteps in the hall, it was enough to drive one of his church couples out for good.

And finally, Cindy Ketron is back and shares the chilling story of a girl named "Sarah Miller", her childhood friend who loved the color red. Sarah would walk her home from school… until one day, she disappeared mid-step. Cindy later learned Sarah had died in a car accident. To this day, she says, Sarah’s ghost still appears in Speedway, Indiana, always dressed in red.

These are more than just ghost stories. They’re true calls from real people, threaded with folklore, mystery, and history. Whether it’s dreams that echo tragedy, shadow figures that watch us in silence, or childhood friends who never really leave, these haunting tales remind us that the past is never as far away as we think.

So, gather close. Let’s listen together. 👻

This week on *Tell Me A Ghost Story*, I’m bringing you some of the eeriest, most unforgettable true ghost stories I’ve heard yet—straight from real phone calls with our listeners.

Comedian Sabrina Wu calls in from New York with a haunting tale about footsteps on the ceiling, phantom babies crying, and a flickering light that seemed to mock their fear.

Brett shares the unsettling sound of children laughing and playing on an empty playground at midnight, a ghost story that made me shiver.

I also heard from a medical courier who saw a blinding white light rush past the doors of a nursing home, a place already steeped in haunted history.

And Linda, a 73-year-old restaurant worker, took me back to her bartending days in the 1970s and 80s, where she saw spirits in mirrors, chairs flying across the floor, and a woman in red who vanished before her eyes.

But perhaps the most astonishing call came from Khyelle in Los Angeles, who described not just sleep paralysis but nightly astral travel, her spirit leaving her body, soaring through the stars, and even stepping onto the dark side of the moon.

Every story in this episode reminds us that hauntings don’t just happen in old houses—they happen in apartments, schools, restaurants, and sometimes even within our own sleeping bodies.

These real ghost stories weave together with folklore, history, and myth to remind us why we keep asking the question: Are ghosts real?

 This week on Tell Me A Ghost Story, I’m sharing a new round of true ghost stories straight from your calls—real people, real voices, real hauntings.

Mark from Iowa admits he’s always been a skeptic, but that changed the night he and his friend saw a pale face pressed against the glass of a picture window.

Another caller takes us deep into the strange world of premonitions—those heavy, unshakable feelings of dread that somehow seem to line up with tragedy.

We’ll visit an abandoned church in Galway, Ireland, where a preacher once dropped dead mid-sermon, and hear the unsettling story of an “imaginary friend” that didn’t sound so imaginary after all. And then, in Seattle, Dan tells us about hearing phantom cries around Green Lake—the same lake where the real-life murder of Sylvia Gaines left a haunting that lingers to this day.

These are the kinds of stories I love sharing with you—haunting tales where folklore, history, and lived experience collide. If you’re drawn to paranormal podcasts that explore not just what happened, but why, you’re in the right place. So gather close, press play, and let’s step into the world of real ghost stories together.

Welcome back to another spine-tingling episode of Tell Me A Ghost Story! This week, we have four incredible stories that will make you question what lurks in the shadows and what comforts us when we need it most.

Our first caller, Erica from San Diego (now in Eastern North Carolina), shares a haunting memory from her traumatic childhood. During her parents' violent fights, a mysterious friend named Sally would appear to comfort her. With elongated features, hollow dark eyes, and a perpetual frown, Sally was unsettling to look at, yet she offered the kindness young Erica desperately needed. The twist? None of Erica's childhood friends remembers Sally ever existing. Was she an imaginary friend, a guardian spirit, or something else entirely? Sometimes the help we need comes from the most unexpected places.

Next, Bobby from Little Rock, Arkansas, takes us back to 1946 Texarkana, where his grandmother lived through real terror. He reveals the true origins of the Hook Man urban legend, which stems from the unsolved Phantom Killer case that claimed five lives. Bobby's grandmother witnessed a town paralyzed by fear as a masked killer targeted couples on Lover's Lanes. The murders stopped as suddenly as they began, and the killer was never caught. What we turned into a cautionary tale for teenagers was actually a real monster who got away with murder.

Rob from Eugene, Oregon, shares a terrifying camping experience that's kept him up at night. Deep in the Cascades backcountry, he and his friend Chris were circled for two hours by something walking on two legs, something that stayed just outside their firelight. At 3 AM, they heard slow, deliberate breathing right outside their tent. Whatever it was knew they were there and seemed to be deciding what to do with them. Rob hasn't returned to that area, and Chris has given up backcountry camping entirely.

Finally, Cindy from Avon, Indiana, tells us about her Pekingese dog Tamara, who came with an attached spirit. Everyone who had contact with Tamara seemed to die, and on Cindy's first night with the dog, strange things happened: the dog growled at something invisible, windows flew open, lights went out, and doors opened and closed by themselves. Cindy realized it was a previous owner who couldn't let go of her beloved pet. After Cindy promised to care for Tamara, the spirit finally found peace. Cindy kept that dog for 10 beautiful years.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this week's six calls cover more paranormal ground than almost any other episode this season.

James from San Francisco returns with his third call, this time about his decade working at UCSF Medical Center on Parnassus, one of the most documented haunted hospitals in California. The kitchen where he worked used to be a morgue. Volcanic smoke rose from urinals with no explanation. Voices spoke in bathrooms that fell silent the moment he opened the door. Invisible hands pulled at his jacket on the basement stairs. He heard rumors of an exorcism on the eighth floor of the Children's Wing in the early 1980s. James has now called in three times and every building he touches has a story.

Melissa from Pittsburgh calls in about Graystone House, a stone mansion built in the 1700s as a stagecoach inn and brothel, later converted into a group home for teenage boys. Every single day at exactly 6 PM the doorbell rings across multiple doors. Nobody is ever there. Faucets turn on at full blast in empty rooms. Whatever is in that house has been doing this long enough that it has a schedule.

A caller shares a true paranormal story about a five-bedroom rental house with one room nobody can keep occupied. Four different tenants have rented the room by the main entryway, and all four ended up in serious addiction or rehab. The connection between that specific room and that specific pattern of suffering raises a question that this episode seriously sits with. What if some spaces hold hunger? What if desperation can soak into walls the same way smoke does. Michelle explores Dr Gabor Mate's concept of hungry ghosts and the Buddhist tradition of beings trapped in endless cycles of craving as a lens for understanding what that room might be doing.

Chuck from Upstate New York calls in about the woman in the empty lot in his neighborhood, the site of a house that burned down decades ago. She stands in the weeds and broken concrete, wearing something pale and perfectly still. But only in peripheral vision. The moment you look directly at her, she is not there. Chuck and multiple neighbors have all seen her. Nobody has ever seen her move.

Diane from Sedona is a practicing diviner who calls in with a Ouija board session that crossed a line she did not expect to cross. She was helping a man contact his deceased father when her hands went ice cold, and her body began shaking uncontrollably. She describes feeling squished inside her own body, making room for something else. She has no memory of what was said. When she came back to herself, the skeptic she had been reading for was pale and shaking because she had told him things only his father could have known. The planchette had kept moving with only her finger on it.

And Cindy Ketron from Avon, Indiana, calls in with a family story from the Great Depression. Her great-grandfather was working in a hayfield when a man in a business suit appeared with a notepad and pencil and offered to solve his problems in exchange for something. Great-grandfather asked what would happen if he simply did not want the offer. The devil did not know what to do with that answer and disappeared. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do to something that wants power over you is refuse to be afraid of it.

This is one of the original Tell Me A Ghost Story calls from the early days of the show. Short, raw, and exactly where it all started. All three of these calls were later incorporated into longer compilation episodes with full host commentary if you want the complete experience.

Hey, it's Michelle, and this early episode has three true ghost stories that each involve a moment of waking up to something that should not be there. A door that was closed when you fell asleep standing open. An angel who told a five-year-old it was okay before she understood what it meant. And a mattress replaced by an endless pit of fire, with everyone sleeping above it completely unaware.

Yamari from Pennsylvania calls in with a true ghost story that has a witness. She and her boyfriend went to bed normally with the bedroom door closed as always. In the night, she experienced what felt like waking but could not move, could not scream, and could not get her boyfriend's attention. The door opened, and three black figures entered the room, moving around both of them with their focus on her. She closed her eyes and woke fully in a panic attack. The door was open. Her daughters were asleep in their rooms. There are no animals in the house. The door had been closed when she fell asleep. It has never happened again, but she still gets chills when she is alone in that room.

An anonymous listener calls in with a true spiritual encounter that did not reveal its meaning until years after it happened. When they were five or six, they had a dream in which they were in distress and an angel appeared, a glowing figure with wings that reminded them of the Statue of Liberty, who said it's okay. Life was good at the time, and the dream made no immediate sense. Years later, in middle school, a period of severe anxiety and genuine suffering, they were standing inside a Catholic church when it suddenly made complete sense. The angel had not been speaking about that moment as a five-year-old. It had been speaking about middle school. The message arrived a decade early and waited.

Erica from San Diego returns with her third call to Tell Me A Ghost Story, and this one goes back to the very beginning of her life. She was five or six years old and growing up in a home defined by physical abuse and toxic relationships between her parents. She had always felt and seen paranormal activity in the duplex her family lived in, faces and creatures emerging from the stucco walls of her bedroom at night. But the experience she called in about is the one she has never been able to explain or rationalize in the decades since. She woke up in her parents' bed, where they had let her sleep between them. When she opened her eyes, the mattress was gone. Beneath her father, herself, and her mother was an endless dark trench of fire, flames rising upward toward them as they floated above it, still sleeping. She looked left. She looked right. Her parents were completely undisturbed. She was five years old, floating above a pit of fire, and she was the only one who could see it. She remembers what her parents were wearing that night. The memory has never changed. She does not think she imagined it.

Three real callers. Three true ghost stories about waking up to something that had no right to be there. This is where Tell Me A Ghost Story began.
