What are the scariest paranormal real life stories you've heard?

There's a story about a bridge. People said that if you drove across it at midnight, you would see a figure in white standing in the middle of the road. One driver didn't believe it and tried it. As he got closer to the middle of the bridge, his car suddenly stalled. And there, right in front of his windshield, was a pale figure in a white dress. He managed to restart the car and sped away.

A haunted house story that really creeps me out is about a place where pictures on the walls would change. One day it was a normal family portrait, and the next day it showed distorted faces. The family living there felt like they were being watched all the time. They tried to perform some cleansing rituals, but nothing worked and they eventually left.

There was a Halloween party at an old mansion that had been converted into an event space. During the party, the lights started flickering. People thought it was part of the spooky atmosphere at first. But then, a cold wind blew through the room and everyone heard a woman's scream. Some people claimed to see a ghostly figure floating down the hall. After that, most of the guests left in a hurry. The place had a reputation for being haunted, and that night just confirmed it.

There was a story from a sailor. He was on a ship in the middle of the ocean. One night, he saw a figure walking on the water towards the ship. As it got closer, he could see it was a man with a pale face. The figure seemed to pass through the side of the ship and then disappeared. The sailor was so scared that he refused to go on any more long - distance voyages. This story gives me chills every time I think about it, especially the idea of something so strange happening in the middle of the vast ocean.

I've heard of a person who went for a hike in a remote area. They got lost and as night fell, they started to see strange lights moving around them. They tried to call for help but there was no signal. It was a terrifying experience until they were finally found the next day.

A friend told me a story. He was on a plane and suddenly the plane started shaking violently. The lights flickered and there was a strange smell. Everyone was panicking. Thankfully, the pilots managed to get it under control, but it was a terrifying experience for him. He said he never wanted to fly again for a while.

There's a story from a lighthouse keeper. He said that at midnight, he would often see a shadowy figure on the balcony of the lighthouse. It would just stand there, looking out into the sea. He tried to talk to it, but it never responded. The lighthouse has a long history, and who knows what tragedies might have happened there in the past.

The scariest one I've heard was about a guy who would break into people's houses at night and just stand at the foot of their beds watching them sleep. He never stole anything or hurt them physically, but the idea of someone just standing there in the dark is terrifying.

A woman received death threats on social media just because she expressed her different political views. It was so scary as she didn't know if the person behind the threats would actually act on it. She had to involve the police and increase her personal security measures.

There's the story of the Myrtles Plantation in Louisiana. It's known as one of the most haunted places in America. People have reported seeing the ghosts of former slaves, a young girl who was poisoned on the property, and other apparitions. The house has a long history of violence and death. Visitors often feel a sense of unease and dread. There are also claims of cold spots, strange noises, and objects moving without explanation. It's a place full of mystery and stories of the paranormal.
