Tonight’s terrifying account begins with childhood night terrors and evolves into something much more disturbing. After years of seeing the same shadow figure, playing with Ouija boards, and experiencing terrifying dreams, one person began to question whether she was more than haunted… perhaps even a doorway for spirits themselves.  You can get these ad-free through ScaryPlus.com free for 14 days, then 4.99 per month.

Tonight’s episode features two unsettling true paranormal stories from people who spent years hoping the activity in their lives would finally stop. Kaylee begins describing terrifying encounters beginning in early childhood: ghostly figures standing at the foot of her bed, crosses mysteriously disappearing, growling outside her room, violent sleep paralysis, and a towering shadow entity that seemed to follow her for years. Even after tattooing a cross onto her body appeared to stop the activity, a psychic medium later warned her that whatever was attached to her was only waiting to come back. Did it return? The second story takes us deep into the haunted canyons of Wasatch Mountains, where abandoned silver mines, forgotten pioneer graves, and moonlit hiking trails became the perfect location for unexplained encounters. Things like voices echoing through empty mining camps and shadow figures appearing in multiple homes at the exact same time are only the beginning. Looks like we got a little bit of everything in these true scary stories: shadow people, haunted locations, paranormal encounters, ghost sightings, sleep paralysis, dark entities, and unexplained wilderness horror.

It was replying to them with undeniable accuracy. There was a ghost with them in the room… or maybe something worse. In these true scary stories, we’ll hear from Vanessa who retells her experience in joining a group of friends to use the ouija board. When that didn’t work, they turned to a ghost box (a spirit communication device), and they were able to contact the other side. Unfortunately for them, the session turned hostile. In the second story, Kristy tells us about a childhood encounter in a remote house where someone, or something, was moving objects in the dark. It was until much later when Kristy and her cousins learned of the tragic reasons behind the occurrences. You can get these ad-free through ScaryPlus.com free for 14 days, then 4.99 per month.

In this true scary story, we hear from Andrea. She grew up as the only girl between two brothers in a small, aging home where strange things seemed to follow her from childhood into adulthood. It began with her name being called when no one was there. Later came footsteps on the porch, invisible hands tugging at her feet, and a ceiling fan that moved on its own. But the most powerful encounters didn’t happen until after tragedy struck her family in 2019. What followed were moments so vivid, so emotional, that she still wonders if it was a dream or an actual visitation. Was it grief? A subconscious coping mechanism? Or was someone she loved still trying to reach her? You can get these ad-free through ScaryPlus.com free for 14 days, then 4.99 per month. Cancel anytime.

Some childhood memories never fade, no matter how hard you try to bury them. In this episode, we hear two chilling true stories told by people who were far too young to understand what they were seeing. The first begins with a single night, a terrifying sound, and glowing red eyes watching from outside a bedroom window, an experience two sisters would not speak about for years. The second unfolds across decades inside a quiet house on the east side of Toledo, Ohio, where a shadowy presence seems tied to one specific room… and one family. Whether these encounters were warnings, hauntings, or something far darker, both stories share one unsettling truth: some things don’t go away just because you grow up. Have a story?

In this true scary story, we hear from Tracey. From the time she could walk, she knew something was watching her. What began as a childhood fear followed her through foster homes, adulthood, and motherhood... growing stronger with every major change in her life. As others finally began to witness what she had always felt, the truth became harder to deny: this was definitely not imagination, sensitivity, or coincidence. It was something attached to her family line… and it wasn’t done yet. Have a true, personal, scary story? Reach out through TrueScaryStory.com!

In the mid-1990s, JD grew up in a Phoenix apartment where his “imaginary friends” weren’t the playful kind most kids have. He called them The Wallwalkers, strange figures that crawled out of the paint, whispered his name, and sometimes turned on him. Alongside terrifying night terrors and seizures, JD also witnessed cabinets opening on their own, maggots pouring from the carpet, and a pale figure that appeared behind a shower curtain.
