Paranormal Stories

A Halloween Story
I was ‘strange kid’, even from an early age… and more than a few odd things have happened over the years. Here are a few selected chosen ghost and paranormal stories suitable for Halloween that I thought needed to be passed along to others. Oh, and they all have the additional added benefit of being TRUE. No sex (Thank God) but the WTF code ought to be present.

A Not-Quite Human Story
Al and Betty have peculiar skills which set them apart, and which leads them to search for others like them. As they discover who they might be, they become alienated from friends, family and humanity in general. They must discover who they are and where they belong, as there no room for them in their world. Between walking into disasters, ungrateful rescues and government agents tracking their every movement, they're searching for a way out and a way home, wherever that might be.

A Conversations Story
That time of year - pumpkins, candy, children in costume and favourite stories. (A story I posted last year on another site.)

Cheaters beware the witch of the great lakes

Cameron Baxter is an archaeologist who has already experienced a meteoric rise to fame in her field. When she's handed the keys to the find of the century in Egypt's Valley of the Queens, an offering at a unique, ancient altar may be the only way to stop the consequences of disturbing the rest of a powerful priestess of Bastet.

A young college girl discovers she is much more...

With a wrecked car and no cellphone reception, Freddy seeks help in the only place he can, a run-down mansion that looks long abandoned. To his surprise, he finds a strange woman living there alone, but there's an ulterior motive to her gracious hospitality. (Spider woman/monstergirl Halloween story)

The Stanos family became wealthy Greek shipping merchants in the early 19th century. Their ships sailed throughout the Mediterranean to numerous ports exporting Greek olive oils, cheeses and cotton. In return, their ships arrived full of exotic goods; amongst them were frankincense, myrrh and silk from the Arab world and beyond. The shipping empire was at its height when a random set of events beyond their control brought it crashing down, leaving only an aged grandfather.

Following a traumatic accident, Kal returns home with a gap in his memories. Strange dreams plague him as uncontrollable urges begin to rise.

When Eleanor challenges Javier to walk the labyrinth he built—blindfolded, bound only by her voice—he enters a maze that’s no longer just hedges and turns, but sentient, seductive, and alive. Guided by her commands and tested by illusions, Javier must surrender more than sight to reach the heart of the maze—and of Eleanor. Mazeheart is a tale of ritual, desire, and the cost of truly being seen.
