Deming House - I currently live in Captain Demings house on Juliana St. I have done some research and have found some information that I think you would be interested in. THe captains child wasn't a son, it was a daughter and her name was Nina Irene Deming. She was born 8 months after the Death of Captain Deming. So he passed not knowing his wife was pregnant.

White Mist - When I was very young, about 5 years old, I was in my basement and my mom took a picture of me, when it got developed, there was a strange white mist next to me. I got scared and I didn't want to see the picture. Nothing paranormal has EVER happened inside my house besides that. Until now. I was in the basement again looking for something in our storage room. I saw it, so I went over to get it, but out of the corner of my eye, I saw that strange white mist, I got so freaked I ran away crying (yeah i'm a wimp, big deal). I haven't gone in there since. I won't ever again if I can help it. Story by:

Glasses - Now this is going to sound really strange, but one evening Monday 13th October 2008 i went up to my room to go to bed, it was around 11:45pm. I was really tired and i fell asleep whilst still wearing my glasses. I awoke around an hour later and realised that my glasses had gone. I thought, well they must have fallen off so i looked beside my bed, however they were nowhere to be seen. I cannot see without them so i went downstairs and told my parents, they helped me look for my glasses but without any luck. I have turned the place upside down looking for them but they haven't yet turned up. Other strange things have been happening, things being moved, for example when i was at college my mother decided to dust my room. She told me that she found one of my china dolls on my bed, however it is usually on a set of drawers in my room, she was quite freaked out. On another occasion one of my ornaments, a unicorn, was hanging by its neck from one of my handbags which was hanging up on my bed. Weird. Story by:

Name Calling - I'm not exactly sure what I'm experiencing, really. But, it has happened several times over the past couple of months. Twice, most recently in the wee hours of this morning, I've heard my mother call my name. The first time, she shouted my name, startling me. But, she hadn't called me at all. This morning, I heard her twice, with the second time waking me up. I went in to check on her (she's 91), but she was sound asleep. But, I had heard her voice clearly. Two other times, a man called my name. Once, I heard them outside the bedroom window. I wasn't asleep, but sitting at the computer. It was the kind of call that someone does when they're trying to get your attention without getting anyone else's attention. My daughter was here, too, but she didn't hear it. I can't recall where I was the other time, other than I know I wasn't asleep. I'm not afraid, but am a bit unnerved by it. Events haven't taken place that I could tie in to it, so I don't know what to think. Story by:

Still freaked - This happened several years ago while traveling across a road on our way back home, just me and my x sister-in-law. We had left Wirt county and decided to go back home via Mellin Ridge in Ritchie County a little over halfway through that road there is a little church that sits over to your left with a small graveyard. Well at about that place I had dropped my cigarette and had come to an almost complete stop while bending down to get my cigarette my head was turned to the drivers side window as I reached down. What I seen still terrifies me to this day. Standing over a freshly dug grave was this huge form I'd say about the size of a large bull. It had glowing red eyes and horns, its front legs were way taller than its bag legs. I slowly looked over to my sister in law to see if she was looking..and she was with her eyes as wide as saucers. I said do you see what I see? To which she replied yes. I never drove so fast in my life to get away from whatever that was. I still wonder to this day what exactly it was that we seen. We both seen it so I know i'm not crazy. I did a little research and found that they used to tie big dogs up in graveyards in the old days to help prevent grave robbing, I'm just wondering if this could have been some kind of ghost dog or demon dog...whatever I just know it scared us both to death.

Odin Nettestad, "the Ghost" - Hello, I am a angelic psychic and comedian.
I received this ghost story in the email.
It’s a true story
It started when we moved in, actually a few weeks after. I would wake up in the middle of the night because I could hear some one crying and my parents didn’t believe me at first. Then gradually we would hear things like footsteps in the upstairs of our house, It was a two story, the second story was an apartment that was empty until we could find someone to rent it. It started out as hearing the footsteps once or twice a week to every night. Gradually the sounds were like something was rolling across the floor in the apartment like a tricycle or something. My parents were hearing it now too. One night I heard the crying again then the rolling, the rolling went to where the stairs were leading up to the place and I heard someone falling down the stairs. The door that is at the bottom of the stairs banged as if the police were going to raid the place. I was terrified, my parents came into my room because I got hysterical and then they decided to go to the catholic church that was down the street. Being Jewish that is a very odd thing to do but my dad was a huge horror movie fan and the exorcist was his favorite movie and he figured they had that sort of thing figured out. A priest came over and blessed the house, it didn’t really fix anything because it still was going on everynight. At least twice a week someone would fall down the stairs and bang into that door. One night I woke up to very loud crying and there was an old man in my room sitting in a wheel chair, that was the last time I slept in that room alone for a long time. When I screamed for my parents the old man disappeared. My mom went down to the city hall or library or somewhere and looked through old deeds and news articles and everything to see if something had happened in our house and she found out that the house used to be a home for old people who had no families or anyone to take care of them and an old man named Odin Nettestad had died falling down the stairs. That was extremely creepy because my mom photo copied the article and we still have it. Not to long after that a group of college students rented the apartment out and all the activity stopped.
Wow! What a story That’s funny and scary. The main thing was no on was harm psychically. And maybe the ghost went back to God. Thank you so much for sharing this story

Mother - My story is from back in 2001. It occured in Lost Creek on the old railroad tracks behind the Fire Department. I was at a friends birthday party that she was having at the fire department, it was in late September. Me and my best friend (who also believes thoroughly in ghosts) were hanging out with 2 other friends on an old bridge where the train used to cross. We were just looking around reading the grafitti that some kids had painted on the sides of the bridge. I was fine at first but while I was standing on the end of the bridge getting ready to walk back down the trail to the Fire Department, I felt like something was trying to push me back onto the bridge and I automatically got the feeling like it was gonna actually try to push me over into the water. So of course i told the other 3 that I didn't feel right and we needed to go immediately. They agreed and we walked back to the building.
Well, a while later when it started getting dark the other 3 were outside just talking, looking down the tracks at the bridge we had just been on and they called me over to them. I asked them what they wanted and they told me to look at the bridge (which from where we were was a good distance away). Out of nowhere i saw what they had been watching for the past 10 minutes, a green orb of light floating about 2 feet off the ground! The weirdness continued the more we watched it. We noticed that if we moved one way, it would move the same way...if we moved toward it, it would move toward us. Well, my friend (whose party this was) saw it too and asked her dad to come out and look. He took one look at it, couldn't explain it and kinda frieked out and went back into the building. After a little while my friend said she noticed it was the shape of what seemed to be a little girl...and from what i could tell myself, she was right. So she drug me back in the building where there were some old pictures from the early 1900's hanging on the wall...and in one of them was what seemed to be the picture of the little girl we were seeing out on the old tracks (which by the way were taken up a few years before this even happened)! So to this day i swear that what we were seeing was that little girls ghost floating on that bridge. But i have never done any research to see if there was a little girl or anyone else who may have gotten hit by a train passing through or who just maybe lived there near the tracks and played there a lot. But u tell me....Ghost or no Ghost? Story by:

A Visiter - "My name is Tommy Verzesco, and I live in Bernards Township, New Jersey. I live in a big brown house, it looks alittle like the Amityville Horror.
I have two sisters and one brother. When we moved into the house the girl that was selling it to us told us, people have seen and herd things unkown in the house. Now my story is not demon like. My first sighting was on November 15th 1999. My mom and dad went out on a date and I was left home alone. I was upstaries doing my homework when I decided to go down stairs to get something to drink. When I was getting my drink I thought I herd the door open and someone walk up stairs. Well at first I thought "Mom and Dad". Well I yeld for them. No answer. I yeld again still no answer. Well I was walking up the steps to see if it was them
when I herd people talking. It was coming from my room. I walked to my bedroom door and listened for about two minutes. I couldn't make out what they were saying.
I opened the door to see who it was and know one was in their. I then thought there was somone that broke in. Then I ran to my neighbor's house. I called 911 and they searched the whole house and found nothing. When they left my mom and dad was already home. I told them what I heard and they said I was watching to many scary movies. Yeah right! You can never watch too many scary movies. Well for next two weeks things keep braking around the
house. Everyone thought it was me. Well I told my mom and dad it could be a ghost in the house. They said there is no such things as ghosts.
The very next day, while my mom was washing dishes somthing wisperd in her ear. She told my dad and he said she was just stressed out and hearing things.
Well my dad was taking a shower and the certens keept pulling thim selves back. Well he got out and went to get his clothes but when he went into his room all his droors was open, no one was even home. He told every one when we came home. Well my sisters was both brushing their teeth when something pushed one of them. My mom came running up the stairs. My mom told my dad when he got home from work. When we aksed the local ghost hunters to
come in and do an investigation they got one really weird picture. Their is soemthing sitting on my bed. It looks like a man but bright white. They also got an EVP.
They asked the ghost if he is just joking with us and he is a nice ghost. On the tape we herd a "YES". After that we didn't see or hear anything for about 2 months. But it came back with new tricks. But not anything bad. And thats my storie." Story by:

And as soon as I saw her she stared at me and I fell over and came to a couple of seconds later.

MR - "This is a quick synopsis of a TRUE DOCUMENTED happenning, in the English County of Durham near Chester-le-Street in the 17 Centuary. A pregnant young maid went missing from a Local Noblemans Estate near a village called Lumley, it was thought she just ran away.
A while later during the winter a Miller walked the river route up to stream or creek leading to the Wear, snow was on the ground, it was early morning . As he began his ascent through a thicket of trees up to the Mill he thought he saw a figure in the trees but shrugged it off as a shadow. As he followed the trail up to the mill spots of blood were seen in the white snow they increased in size as the bank adjacent to the stream made its way to the mill. Till he was confronted with a sight that made him almost colapse with fear, like a rabbit in torch light he was transfixed.
The figure was that of a young women, dressed in a torn and dirty long skirts of the time giving her class etc, except her face ws ahen as the stone except the mishapened and damaged head clotted with blood and bone. Making eye contact impossible, the form began to speak detailing to the Miller that she was the maid to the local Noble who had gone missing. She detailed to him that her the lover the married Nobleman had made her pregnant and promised he loved her and would take care of her. As her pregnancy began to show he told her to save the torment of a scandal and go with a manservant or friend of his in the night. To a safe house where she would be looked after and he would be able to visit.
She agreed and this rough friend of the nobleman, met the girl in secrecy that night supposedly to take the girl to a new home.
Truth was the nobleman had hired a local villian who owed him money to take the girl and make the problem dissapear. To this the thug who was a miner in his time knew of the many pits and disused mine workings tricked the girl to an old bell pit and stoved her head in and threw her broken body down the shaft, not far from the mill. She begged the miller to avenge her and her childs murder and expose this most terrible of crimes.
This was too much for the miller, who eventually was able to muster the strength to move and ran in horror away from the site.
He returned home hoping as his wife pondered that it was an hallucinaton probabily a side effect of a cold the miller was nursing feverishly. He readily agreed, not wishing to admit the true horror he had witnessed.
The spirit although now had contacted a living soul and as is often the case the miller experienced more visitations which increasing in ferocity was told that unless he sought the Justice of the Peace and revealed this evil and allow the girl to be burried in hallowed consecrated soil she would haunt him and his family for eternity.
At the point of nearly loosing his mind and his job, he approached the JP and told him the story, to which he was shunned and told to regulate his drinking and that the nobleman would not take kindly to such rumours being made about himself and the maid who had run away.
After more visitations he pleaded with the JP, who evetually was entreated by many lofcals who felt there was merit in the tale.
So a young boy and many villagers visited the site the miller was told was the resting place of the girl.
Susequently the boy was tied with rope and dropped into the mine, with only a lamp to keep him company. As the darkness envelopeed him the small amount of light illuminated his petrifying decent. Afer many yards he reached the floor of the workings, at first he was able to see no sign of any girl or anything out of place, it was just as the search was to be called off when an echoeing scream from the lad in this make shift tomb shocked the posse of men at the head of the shaft.
Upon quickly pulling up the hysterical boy, he was retrieved and calmed with a nip holding a blooded bonnet, confirming a body was at the base of the shaft and it was the maid.
Upon retrieving the girls body and with the evidence from the miller and others the two men were tried, jailed and then publically hung at Durhan City Market plafce in view of a baying local crowd and under the shadow of the towers and spires of Durhams Norman Cathedral which dominates the city.
The fact is readers during the trial and at the execution many bystanders said they saw a contented but malevolent apperition at or around the guilty parties. Luckily this was not so for the the Miller and his family as he had no more visits after the unfortunate girl and child were layed to rest in the graveyard.
It is said that this was the only trial in which the testimony of a ghost or trapped spirit helped condem the defendants in British Legal History.
I leave the rest for those interested to investigate this case. I have just noted it from memory and have forgotten many details, I became aware of this from my Grand Father who worked at a Drift mine close to the remains of the Mill and the workings at Cocken Pit near the river Wear and Finacle Priory in the 1940`s. This was one of the oldest mines in Durham, founded by monks. Whilst there many old workings were found or brken into, in on case wooden tools and childrens clogs were found and are now on display in Sunderland Museum.
Even now those old enough to remeber the tales past down from generation know the said area called White House and of the White Lady, making the dipped wooded area to the top of the stream still a spooky spine tingling place to travel through.

Strange Happenings - "Hi my name is Ronnie Milles and I live in Charleston W.V. My story is about my house being visited by the unknown. It starts out one night when I was eating dinner with the family when we all herd a noise from up stairs. My dad went up thinking it was someone braking in our house. When he got up their he saw no one. A couple of days later my mom and dad went out to eat. I was alone in the house. I was watching Saw 2. Later in the movie I herd the front door open and close. I thought my mom and dad was home so I went down to see why they were back so soon. When I got down there I yelled for them but no answer. I then proceded to look around. I went to look in the basement of the house. When I looked down there I saw a man standing down at the bottom of the stairs. I ran to the kitchen to get the phone and call my parents. I told them there is someone in the house. They told me to go to the neighbor's house and wait for them to come home. While I was at the neighbors I watched the house to see if anyone was coming out of it. My parents got home and looked all over but found nothing. The very next day they went to the store to get some food for the house. I told thim I was going to stay home cause I was waiting on my friend to call me. When they left I went to my room wich is on the second floor. While I was on the stairs I herd something that sounded like a person walking around. So I slowly continued to go up the stairs. When I got up their the noise was coming from my room. I stood by my bedroom door and listened. I then herd someone turn on my TV. I went in my dads room to get his baseball bat. When I got back to my room I still herd someone in their. I slamed the door open and yelled "GET OUT!" I looked around the room and saw no one. My TV was still on but no one was there. I looked under my bed, in my closet, and in my bathroom. My window was closed so no one could of went out of it. There was no one there but I had a feeling like I was being watched. The noises stoped for about a week. And when they started back up again It was getting to my mom and dad. At first they didn't beileve me. But while my dad was taking a shower he said some one pulled the curtens back. But the bathroom door was closed and no one else but him was in the house. I was at school. My mom was at work. He also said he herd someone laugh. Later that night while my mom was cooking dinner she had an incadent too. She was making meat loaf. She said somthing pulled on her hair. Then the sink went on by it's self. She went and turned it off but only for it to come back on again. Also while she was cleaning up she saw somone walk in the kitchen. She yelled for my dad to go and check it out. He found nothing but a broken picture on the floor. After about a year of strange happenings we moved to the house up the street. My friend moved in to our old house and I asked him if anything weird has happend. He said yeah somthing weird happens all the time. He said he hears people walking around. And see's people in the bassment. I told him my experiences and he said nothing has changed in the house of "Strange Happenings". Well now you guys know my story and my "Weird Tale"." Story by:

Strange Noises Strange Figures - "Well my story starts at Richman Kentucky. When I was little I was a big gamer. I was playing my game and all of a sudden my game shut off. I then heard a noise like someone talking. I said hello and then I heard foot steps walking my way. I walked into the hallway and saw a shadow go in my mom's room. And I was the only one in the home at the time. Later I kept hearing the noises and saw more shadows. Then my little brother said something kept going in his room and talking. I asked him what it looked like and he said all he could see was a shadow of a man. Things around my house started to get alot weirder. Things moving, things going missing. The family dog was also ackting crazy. The house was always dark. Then my mom asked our preist to come in and help out.

"One night in my livingroom I was watching TV while playing a scramble game. Around 1:12 I turned the TV off so I could consentrate on the scramble game. About five mins later I heard a female voice say my name. I looked at my door and saw a woman standing their. She was wearing very old clothes like around the 1920's type of clothes. She was a blond. When I told my freinds they just started doing alot of dumb blond jokes. But just as I saw her, she was gone. About one month later my freind Chris got a Ouija Board. I thought yeah lets do it. Well when we asked the ghost to give us a sign of its presence a glass on my self broke. Well we just put it up in ower closet and forgot about it. I also see her walking down the hallway sometimes. It starts to creep me out. I think the scarreist thing is just hearing things and not seeing anything or anyone. I hear foot steps in the guest room next to mine a lot at night time when everyone is asleep. It said my name two more time's after that I asked it to please not say my name again it scares me too much. Ever since I haven't heard my name being called anymore." Story by:
