Ghost Story Central



Tell your true ghost stories to a group of interested readers. The stories don't need to be sensational or outlandish, just true. Please give firsthand information about places you've been that are or could be haunted. Let's brainstorm about and question whether certain old buildings could be haunted.

Let's disspell rumors. 

And especially, seriously, no making fun of the storytellers. I want this to be a safe place to tell your true ghost stories.

More ghosts in Apple Valley

I've attached a few more ghost photos provided by Kathy Machowski of Jordan. She said Pat Thiesen, a member of this online group, took the photos. 


'First time out and you caught a spook!'


Jordan woman investigates ghosts in Mayer

Kathy Machowski of Jordan and other members of the Beyond the Veil paranormal investigation team went to Mayer to look into a haunting.

What they found was more than ghosts, according to the Howard Lake Herald. The findings at one house in Mayer is the Herald's top online story today.


Ghost cats

I read the story in the paper, your hunter sounds like a very thourough one.
I have some mixed feelings about ghosts, I do believe in them, I think that they are scary and yet wonderful at the same time.


Ghosts in Apple Valley

I'm leaving Jordan in about an hour to go ghost hunting in Apple Valley. It's my first time and I'm a little nervous, but I think I'll make it.


Sounds like a ghost

What do ghosts sound like? 

Some of them are as scary as you might think. Others might have the innocent voice of a child.

I have some sound files of real ghosts. Check back closer to Halloween, though, because I want to release one a day for several days before the holiday.


Real ghost hunting

Yesterday, I met with a ghost hunter who lives in Jordan. It was a three-hour interview. I can't wait to do the story.

She has proof of her finds. Her sound recordings and photographs are pretty convincing.
