    True Ghost Stories That Keep Insomniacs Up All Night (Encore)

    On this episode of Tell Me A Ghost Story, I’ve got a collection of real ghost stories from listeners that still give me chills. These aren’t just spooky campfire tales — they’re true ghost stories told over the phone by real people who have lived through terrifying hauntings. Here’s what you’ll hear: From Atlanta, Noah remembers playing hide-and-seek in a Mississippi antebellum mansion when a ghostly figure with red reflective eyes appeared. Years later, in a Las Vegas hotel room, he encountered the spirits of a grayscale boy and a father dressed in 19th-century clothing. (Noah also hosts Real Hauntings, Real Ghost Stories, where I joined him on the episode “Ghost in My Bed.”)Michael from Watertown, MA, tells me about the chilling appearance of a woman in a blue nun’s habit. What started as strange sightings turned into escalating paranormal activity at home and a spiritual reckoning he’ll never forget.Christina, in Phoenix, lived in an apartment next to a cemetery and endured some of the most unsettling hauntings I’ve ever heard: a little girl’s apparition, phantom footsteps, children’s laughter, and even a violently shaking coffee pot.Reid from Colorado Springs shares how a towering shadow person first appeared in their childhood bathroom, and later followed them to a new home years later.Cindy Ketron from Avon, IN, has been haunted by “Herbert,” an invisible entity that’s been with her and her brother since childhood. Her haunted tale is a reminder that sometimes the scariest ghosts are the ones that stay with us for life. If you love ghost stories, haunted tales, and exploring the mysteries of the paranormal, this episode will leave you wondering what’s out there and who might be listening when the lights go out. 📞 Want your ghost story featured?

    Real Ghost Stories for the Witching Hour

    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. If you’ve been waiting for a paranormal podcast filled with ghosts, haunted stories, and chilling encounters, this is it.

    Real Ghost Stories for Rainy Days (Encore)

    This week on Tell Me A Ghost Story, I’m bringing you some of the most unsettling true ghost stories I’ve ever heard—real calls from listeners who’ve lived through the unexplainable. Christie from Los Angeles takes us inside the haunted Mount Washington Hotel in New Hampshire, where she came face-to-face with a smear-like apparition in broad daylight and so did psychic Chip Coffee.  Jessica from San Antonio, TX, shares her family’s terrifying experiences in a haunted home—protective male spirits battling against one malevolent female presence. Then we hear from Reid in Colorado, who describes how a solo Ouija board session unleashed a shadow person that refused to leave. Nicole from Phoenix recalls a chilling childhood moment when a disembodied voice whispered “I see you”—a phrase tied to her home’s haunted past. And finally, Cindy Ketron from Indiana tells one of the strangest paranormal stories yet: her father’s rental house haunted by a murderer’s spirit—and a ghostly spider with a human face crawling right into his dreams. These aren’t just ghost stories—they’re haunting tales of how the supernatural finds its way into our homes, our history, and sometimes, our sleep. Whether you’re a skeptic or a believer, I promise these calls will leave you questioning what’s real… and what’s waiting just beyond the veil.

    Haunting Dreams: Real Ghost Stories and Shadow Men

    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. 👻 📞 Want your ghost story featured?

    The Woman in the Red Dress Sat Down at the Diner… Then Vanished

    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? 📞 Want your ghost story featured?

    He Heard Crying at Green Lake… Then Learned the Dark Truth

    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. 📞 Want your ghost story featured?
