I used to have a coyote skull I found when I was a kid. I kept it on the top of my bookshelf. One day me and my wife were sitting on the couch watching a movie or something when the skull somehow jumped up off the shelf, over the thing in front it and landed upright between me and my wife on the couch. There was no way it could have fallen. It was right at the back of the shelf and there was stuff in front of it and we were both just sitting on the couch. I fucking took it out to the forest and buried it that day. Fuck that shit. I wasn't keeping a fucking haunted skull.
 
I went to the forest one time and found what appeared to be a recently dug, shallow hole. Morbid as I am, I immediately suspected that someone had perhaps buried either a body part or some accessory related to a gruesome criminal enterprise.
Though I could swear I was only digging for minutes, time seemed to pass as if I had been there for hours. The sun at my back had not been close to setting when I began my labors, yet as I moved one handful of earth after another, I was eventually forced to use the small headlamp I always carry when I'm hiking through the woodlands - when I finally lifted what had been interred, the pale LED light fell on the remains of what was undoubtedly the well kept, thoroughly bleached but utterly unblemished skull of a coyote. As I looked into the hollow eye sockets, a strange howl seemed to echo through the branches, and though I could feel no wind, I swear they were softly moving.
At this point I was thoroughly unnerved, but nonetheless could not resist a compulsion most foreign to take this morbid find back to my home. It is currently sitting on the top of the bookshelf in the living room. My wife is coming over and we're gonna watch a movie together on the couch, which I hope will help me forget this entire strange undertaking. If something odd happens, I swear I'm just chucking it in the river - let the salmon enjoy a bit of paranormal activity.

One time I hopped on a sock account and told the story of how a coyote skull leapfrogged off of my bookshelf over the internet, and I, on a different burner, claimed to have found it after I buried it. Liar, the story wasn't even real, me.
 
idk if this one counts (more of a coincidence) but when I was 8 I lost a lego figure playing in the grass at school during recess. That same day after school I attended a tutoring program where we got to hang out in the side of the school that was only ever accessible to the 5th graders. I went to drink from a water fountain which always had a muddy puddle underneath it and I stepped in it on accident. Seeing something plastic-like I put my hand in and I pulled out the exact lego figure. idk how it ended up there, the 5th graders were segregated from us by fences and we had different recess schedules, so its not like they could've stolen it from me. It was some Legoland exclusive figure too, so I don't think it was somebody who had the same figure and dropped theirs in the puddle. Also there wasnt anybody else around at the time so it couldn't have been somebody fucking with me.

My brother every now and them would have recurring dreams of a homeless man attacking him, Years later our parents told us that a homeless man was found dead in our backyard shed before they bought the house. The neighbors complained of a bad smell and the real estate agent discovered the corpse. My brother's room (a converted garage) was actually situated next to that shed, which never got knocked down. The shed had significant rot from sitting there over the years and wasnt even being used, so we took it apart and burnt the pieces. I think I recall my brother saying that the dreams stopped after that.

The Phantom Jeet makes me dump ass in the toilet every morning. He tells me it's revenge for not being able to redeem my grandparents google play cards.
 
House I was renting in my early 20s, guy killed himself in a first floor room in that house in the 80s. Landlord said his ghost haunted the place :woo:and previous tenants said they'd seen a huge black human silhouette in that room. How spoopy! Anyway one evening I got home from work and took a shower in the downstairs bathroom (house had previously been broken up into a first-floor/second-floor duplex) and was walking past the room... saw a huge black human silhouette in there out of the corner of my eye and heard what sounded like breathing, but wet somehow, idk. Reached into the room hit the light switch, nothing there of course. Never had anything like that happen again in that house. Probably my imagination running wild. I mentioned it to the landlord and he said the man had a weird fascination with coyotes and literally had dozens of coyote skulls all around the place when he lived there
 
The public transport always leaves before I catch it.

If I am early, it is late. If I am on time, it is late.

I have angered Mussolini, god of public transport with that pineapple pizza.
 
I have explanations for both of these but I think they're worth sharing.

Back when Slenderman was still a pop culture phenomenon I binged all the available episodes of Marble Hornets in one sitting. I was woken up later that night by a tapping sound on my window, which was on the first floor and about twelve feet off the ground. I tried to ignore it assuming it was a tree branch but it kept happening and then something hit the window really hard, at which point I flew out of bed and spent the night sleeping in the hallway. In the morning I went outside and realised that some absolute dickhead had locked himself out the building and was throwing stones at windows trying to get someone to let him in.

Second story is shorter: I was in bed reading Spiral, the sequel to Ring, and there's a part where the main character is trying to crack a code and when he does it reveals one word: SADAKO. Literally the second I read that my phone started ringing (it was about 1am) and I was convinced I was getting the '7 days' call but it was just my drunk girlfriend with impeccably poor timing.

Not believable. No landlord would ever volunteer that information to a tenant.
 
I dealt with some crazy shit when I was younger. House and the property itself was kinda iffy. Banging on all the windows at knight. Dolls heads used to move and you'd hear running in the living room that sounded like a small child.

Another was on my ranch, saw a dude in a blue shirt in the mirror that was behind my pc. Also some some spooky ayy lmao stuff there too, you could see satellites and stuff but it moved pretty weird

The landlord was the dad of one of my friends so it was more small talk. I'd been in that house many times as a kid and teenager when my friend's older brother lived in it and we'd play and later party there. The story is true except the coyote skulls part lol, I did get told that story and see and hear something in that room that creeped me tf out. Or I thought I saw and heard something lol
 
This is probably a distorted memory but I lucidly remember it to not be a dream, I was a small kid going to the refrigerator at night after bedtime with all the lights off with the exception of all the appliances to get some water and I turned around and there was a giant shadowy figure, wasn't my relatives since the shape didn't match and it was a uncanny figure like a shadow given 3d proportions, it's very hard to accurately describe/articulate the "look" of the figure but the closest would be the ayy lmao on the roof scene in 'Signs' in terms of it's obfuscated covered in darkness look. anyways, safe to say I was in a state of paralyzed terror then back-paced to my room and locked the door, went to sleep. My memory of it is very distinct and when I ended up watching the movie Signs 8-10 years later for the first time, the roof scene made my blood run cold because it was the closest thing to my memory of the figure. In summary, probably some visual bullshit that spooped child-brain but the feeling of it and memory is so distinct from every other experience and visual stimulation in my life which makes it odd.
 
Only thing I've experienced was probably just a hallucination or I wasn't paying attention. I'm driving down a somewhat back road. It had dips in it, like up and down but you could still see the cars coming from the opposite way. There were driveways near the dip but not on it. So I'm driving, I see a car coming from the way I'm heading. It drives, goes into the dip, and never comes out. Genuinely confused me at first
 
One day I was suddenly hit by a premonition of what was about to happen. It was a very odd but mundane thing. Something there’s no way I could have predicted but not anything exciting.
The thing then happened. Exactly as I’d ’remembered.’
I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about how I could have had this sort of memory in reverse. Nothing makes sense.
Anyway, one day I had something dull but unpleasant and emotionally charged happen to me and I had a premonition of it a few minutes before.
I’ve had ‘I know what is going to happen’ type thoughts a lot, but it’s been more akin to seeing an obvious movie plot play out. This was entirely different
 
There was this one time I was watching a movie, and I had to pause because I saw something weird out the window.

There was what seemed to be a piece of paper on fire, just tumbling in the wind outside.

It was night, and I was on the second story of a house. And no it was not a reflection of something in the room, it was out there. I went close to the window and looked at it, and watched it for a bit, wondering where it came from. This house was in a country area so the neighbors were several yards away. I called them afterwards to ask if any of them had been burning and none of them had... in any case it would still be weird this thing drifted that high, and that far, and was still on fire and not just ashes.

I then went downstairs to go outside to watch it (partially because I was worried it would land on the porch and cause a fire) but by the time I did, it was gone.

............

Most of the time though, my "experiences" are "corner of my eye" type things. Like that avatar I have right now (the pumpkin-head thing, if I haven't changed it since posting this)... I swear once I saw its mouth move.
