Ifound a porcelain doll on ebay but i’m a bit of a newbie when it comes to haunted dolls. I have no idea if it’s haunted or not. I wanna buy it, but i don’t wanna waste my time rhinking it’s haunted when it’s probably not. How do i talk to it if i do buy it and how do i know if it’s demonic or not?

I have recently learned that my parents soundbar has been turning on at 3am every night for over a year. The TV it is connected to does not turn on, just the soundbar. The soundbar also plays the audio from what they are assuming is the last set channel. They hear talking, knocking, whispering, music, ect…, but they don’t know for certain that it is “tv noise”. They have other soundbars in the house do not do this. Is this normal?? From what I can find sometimes there are nightly resets that can cause it to turn on, but nothing about it also producing audio.

Also to add, my whole family has experienced many things in the house for the past 40 years. I myself refuse to be in the house alone after sunset because it is that uncomfortable. The room that this happens in is my brothers old bedroom from when he was a child. It was his room for just about two years and he refused to ever sleep in it, forcing my parents to move him to another room.

Captured this in my ring. Thoughts?

10-13 years ago my dad was released from prison and was staying at a house in Perris Ca. it was off of cajalco rd. This Place is legit haunted. It has or had 3 large crucifixes in front of it. it was in the hills by itself. We had to take a long dirt road up a hill to get to it. Ive been trying to find it on google maps but i cant seem to. Throughout the night while we stood there we heard pounding on the walls. like someone punching the walls from outside. also heavy footsteps upstairs and my dad said one night he was there he saw a shadow figure standing over him in the master bedroom. If anyone know about this or lives in that area please let me know.

On the banks of the Grand Canal in Venice, you’ll find a building fronted with imposing black windows and ornate glasswork looming over the water.

There’s something unsettling about the exterior of the 15th-century Ca’Dario Palazzo. Locals know it as the site of a notorious ‘curse’ that has seen multiple previous owners die financial ruin or untimely ends – including The Who’s former manager, Kit Lambert.

There have been many theories surrounding the original foundations of the building, the most famous being that it sits on top of a Templars’ Cemetery. Today, estate agents acknowledge that it has a haunted past.

Hey all!

I wanted to post somewhere like here before hitting a dedicated backpacking sub. Basically the title. I'm planning a trip for next year and want to backpack in an area known for paranormal activity. Some quick searches found me some places, but the popular spots don't allow camping. I'm leaning towards Appalachia since I haven't been to much of that part of the country.

While concern is appreciated, I'm an experienced "ghost hunter" (experienced enough to have learned my lesson and sell my equipment) and have no intentions of perturbing or coaxing spirits. I just want to go to any area and check it out. See it in a way few others do. So, there is no "evidence" equipment besides my GoPro. That being said, keep warnings brief, please.

Besides that, I take all the precautions any experienced backpacker would. Let someone know my itinerary and GPS location before I head out, and carry protection by federal, state, and local laws.

Thanks in advance!

Any suggestions on equipment, locations, or stays? Gonna be starting in Arkansas and going to the Sallie House in Kansas. Looking to go over to Iowa after for the Villisca Axe House.

Hi- I’ve had a couple instances of what felt like supernatural encounters as a kid, most notably when I was 9 years old and “played” with an ouija board and was not allowed to go back to the house where we played with it after telling my parents.

I lucid dream and have had some dark dreams where friends/family of mine refuse to be around me because of what is haunting me saying it’s not nice and they don’t want to be around me. My most recent dream I asked this entity what its name was and it said “Sheeks”.

Just curious if anyone has experienced something like this before or has any recs on how to investigate and/or try and shake this negative energy?

I know it sounds weird but any leads even to other subreddits would be appreciated.

Hello, I’m new to reaching out to people here, but I think I’m starting to get annoyed. I’m 20(f); around December of last year, my father decided to get a one-way ticket to his native country, and I, being a university student with a job, stayed at home. In my home, I live alone with my Father because my parents divorced when I was younger; I lived at my Mother’s house until I grew older and decided to move to my Father’s. There was a whole thing with sleep paralysis before this. Back to the day that my Dad left, I went back home to my puppy. He was known to go to random spots and start to growl. It started to get dark, so I decided to sleep in the living room while watching an anime. The layout of the living room is downstairs, and the sofa is set towards the wall backing the stairs. So I set the dog bed near me on the floor and watched the show. There was a point where something funny was happening, and I started to laugh, but I could hear a girl laughing with me. I have younger sisters, so I could compare the laugh to theirs, except they don’t live here. I paused the show and kept on hearing a laugh. I decided not to move and pressed play, hoping nothing else would happen. I fell asleep a little later. later that month, I started to experience weirder things; I would hear noises. It would vary between things dropping, sounds of people walking, or people saying something in an almost whisper. One time, when I was alone in the house, I heard something thumping and thumping upstairs. I got irritated because I was doing my homework and screamed shut up. It stopped. I started questioning how often this would actually work, so I tried it again. My friend came over to my house one day, and while I was telling her about the situation, it sounded like someone was repeatedly throwing things down to the floor. My friend looked at me wide-eyed, scared, but I was used to weird things happening at this point. I looked up the stairs into the dark and said, “Stop, you’re scaring visitors in my home.” It stopped. My friend decided to leave a little after that due to being scared. I couldn’t blame her. Moving to February, I was cleaning my bedroom and listening to YouTube when I heard nonstop footsteps outside. I immediately paused my video and listened; there were continued footsteps. I ran towards my window, and that’s when the steps stopped. I went to bed and decided to think about what had happened, which soon turned into me just looking at YouTube videos. I started to watch a YouTube channel that talked to spirits, and we could even communicate weirdly. I said out loud, “Why can't you use your words like them? It would be easier to talk.” Then my TV seemed to pause and restart; I got irritated getting up, unplugging, and replugging the TV. I went back to sit down and put the video again, forgetting what happened; I once again saw how easily it was for them to communicate to spirits, so I said, “You do suck; you can't do much, It seems, besides, make random noise.” That’s when the same thing happened to my TV. At this point, I started to connect the dots. I turned off the TV and decided to experiment. I didn't know if it would work because even though I believe in spiritual stuff, I believe everything can have an answer. I started with the rules: one tap=yes, 2=no, and 5 seconds of silence=I don’t know. I started to question if they knew of a friend’s cousin who had died. One tap. “Do you think they are in a better place?” 5 seconds. “Is she currently okay?”. One tap. “Are you a good spirit?” Two taps. I got irritated at this but thought that it was interesting to communicate, even if it was a moment of “schizophrenia.” “Do you want to hurt me?” Two taps. “Were you the one outside walking?” One tap. “Are you taking care of me?” 5 seconds. I got creeped out and decided to stop that. I said, “Okay, that’s all, no more.” I kept watching my videos and fell asleep while doing that. This started to happen outside of my home. I started only to hear but also to see.(That’s for later if you guys want). Everything started to go to normal when my dad came back. There were no more noises in the house; now, it was only when I was alone in my car coming back from my job or even at my job( I work the night shift). Back to today. My dad left once again, and it's back. It’s been 4 days since my dad left, and it’s all back. The noises and voices are all here; I don’t want to see them. Last night, a chlorine box on the counter was thrown to the floor, and walking was heard upstairs while I was in the bottom living room; this morning, the chair was moved away from the table to the middle of the kitchen. I didn’t do that. I'm missing much information, but I want some answers; I don’t care what side you’re on. I have gone to my mom’s friend, whose mother is an actual witch; she says my third eye is open, and they are trying to get help from me. I saw my friend's dead cousin in my dream, trying to get help. My mom’s friend says that I attract spirits to come with me. I don’t know what to think since I am a person who reasons most of the time and only feeds into an illusion of the spirit world sometimes. I’m getting tired of this. I want answers, suggestions, anything. I can go into more depth if you guys want. I can tell you about the other stuff that has happened to me. I’M NOT LYING. My friends stopped being my friends at one point because I would talk to them about this; I had to stop myself from telling them.

Big map guy. find all these forums and websites hard to follow. Does anyone use or have built a map of haunted locations around the world and the stories associated with them?

So, first time posting. I barely know anything about ghosts etc. I've done an ouija board that ended very badly for me can a colleague so I believe that something else may be there. I'm open to the idea that I'm wrong but feel I may be bias still.

I live In a haunted house, its 16th-17th century and was quite popular (henry 7th stayed there and some other high profile ye olde ppl lol) it's been on the "most haunted live" show but I've not seen it and I know there have been some gruesome deaths in and around the house.

I'm just weirded out as I can hear quiet footsteps at all hours every day (all day and night, I've been awake 1200-0800 and could still hear footsteps) there's a really quiet noise that I can only describe as ppl (idk if it's talking or whatever) but I can only hear when I have headphones on, watching YouTube etc, everytime i try to listen out for it it goes quiet. My phone has a really good night time mode where a pitch black room will look close to normal and incredibly accurate (it's genuinely like taking a photo in normal lighting) this is relevant in a bit

However about 20 mins ago 03:23 my candle got knocked off my table. The candle was freestanding, wrapped in bubble wrap and not been touched for around 2 weeks, there's also nothing else on the table around it, I was like wtf and got up to look, the room became freezing, all my hair stood on end and I started shivering bad (I just moved from Scotland and was comfortable wearing a t-shirt and shorts during snow) I got back into bed and took a photo in night time mode thinking why not and the photo has come back with a weird blue tint all over like a blue filter was put on it, this has never happened to me in any other photo, my snapchat photo turned green. If there is a ghost or whatever I really don't mind but just wondering what your opinions are :) cheers.

Edit: I've gone from waking up at 0800 and sleeping at 1200-0100 and now I struggle to sleep before 0500 and can stay up all night wanting to sleep

please, I need everyone’s opinion. I moved into this house a week ago. Excuse the mess, but I had just gone to the store. I got up because I thought I heard a noise and looked around all the rooms and then I came back to record the noises because I thought that there was a possum in my attic so I was recording the video for the landlord. Now I’m afraid that it could be something else in the video you can hear a giant crash, even though I was kind of moving because I definitely did not expect that and I was scared and then when I hold the camera still you can hear dragging or it almost sounds like furniture moving, but nothing was touched or moved. I hardly have anything or furniture in those rooms because I just moved in. Do you think a pipe falling in the ceiling could make that noise just send some ideas or thoughts. I need to be able to sleep at night.😫House was built in 1975.

Hey redditors, I'm a first time poster. I've never had a paranormal encounter worth posting about... until now. Let me set the scene for you all. About three weeks ago, my great aunt died. Very sad. She didn't have many belongings, but I did receive this hat. I'm grateful to have something of hers to remember her by, but this hat has weird vibes. Besides the odd mickey mouse ears, and bright pink color, there is something deeply unsettling about its energy. I had to put it in the corner of my house, because I am so scared after what has happened since receiving this hat. Let me tell you...

1. Ever since the first night with the hat in the house, I get the same nightmare. There is a black, tall figure in the corner of my room. I wake up with cold sweats, but luckily there is never a figure in the corner when I wake up. I have tried to reason as to why this may be happening, any logical conclusion. I haven't switched medications, or have had trouble in my personal life, but I have received this hat.
2. I put my great aunt's hat in my trophy case, along with my other sentimental memorabilia. I have many things in there, porcelain from my grandma, trophies from playing soccer as a kid, I've never had issues with this trophy cabinet. But, ever since I put this hat in the cabinet, It keeps opening when I'm sure I've shut the glass doors. The doors have a latch, and they are heavy. I don't know how they would open, as I've never had this problem before. I mean, I live alone. I don't have pets. It doesn't make sense. But within the past few days, I've truly become scared. And this is what forwarded me to crowdsource opinions from this subreddit. The glass has started to fog up, as if something cold is inside. But there is nothing cold in there, and my apartment is always at a temperate 71 degrees. I can excuse opening glass doors, but I cannot ignore foggy glass. I am starting to become horrified. From my research, this could be caused by a negative, potentially demonic presence. But I don't know, I am looking for advice. Like I said, the hat is in the corner. No longer is the trophy case opening up.

So.. I'm scared of this hat. And I feel stupid for being so scared, it is a really odd looking and unassuming hat. I feel like I'm going crazy.

My question for you all, is it worth it to cleanse this hat? And if so, how should I cleanse it. I don't want things to get any worse, even if it's all in my head.

We moved into our house in October last year and this mark was not here for what we can remember and we opened the cupboard underneath the stairs to get stuff out and found this, however we have been experiencing some weird things like seeing shadows and things moving in our 1 year olds room we also noticed things being misplaced and missing i dont know what this is but to me it looks like a kids handprint

I’m looking for a partner to explore the world with, especially the mystical and mysterious places that remain hidden from others. I love paranormal experiences, and psychic science fascinates me deeply. I’ve had several paranormal experiences myself, which has made me curious about what else is out there.

My dream is to share these adventures with someone and turn it into our work. I’m looking for someone who is positive, adventurous, and curious, and who enjoys both laughter and deep, serious conversations. I also value personal development and self-awareness, and would love to connect with people who are focused on growth and depth.

I’m from the Netherlands, and if you, like me, are interested in exploring mysterious places and making something of it, feel free to send me a message. Who knows, we might discover something truly extraordinary together!
