  • "There Have Been Others"... When a Prayer Becomes Deadly (Encore)
    Jan 21 2026
    (Encore Episode) Hosted by Michelle Newman | Tell Me A Ghost Story In this haunting episode of Tell Me A Ghost Story, I'm sharing true paranormal stories from real phone calls, modern ghost stories about things that follow us, prayers with deadly power, and legends that still terrorize. These are real ghost encounters told by the voices who lived them.👻 Christina from Phoenix shares an uncanny experience about something that's followed her everywhere she's lived. Real-life ghost stories about shadow figures, exploding glass, and doorknobs that shake as if something's trying to get in. Her husband and best friend both say the paranormal activity started when she entered their lives. This true ghost story explores what it means when hauntings follow you from place to place — a real paranormal story that raises questions about why some people attract spirits.🙏 Helen from Mississippi tells a chilling ghost story about her Uncle John, a respected church deacon whose prayers seemed dangerously powerful. When his daughter's fiancé died suddenly after Uncle John prayed about the engagement, Helen started noticing a pattern. Her aunt's terrified words, "there have been others", suggest something far darker than divine intervention. This supernatural story blurs the line between faith and something sinister.💙 Donny, a hospice nurse from New Mexico, shares a true paranormal story that isn't scary but deeply moving. His friend Nikki, who had Down Syndrome, spent his final morning crying because he heard his mother calling him home for dinner, but couldn't remember how to get there. He died right before lunch that day. This real ghost story reminds us that paranormal encounters aren't always frightening; sometimes they're about loved ones guiding us home.🚗 Dimitri calls from Chicago with a ghost story from Cold War Poland, the legend of the Black Volga, known as Satan's limousine. This black car with white curtains would prowl Eastern European streets, and if it stopped, whoever was inside would grab passersby, especially children, never to be seen again. Was it the KGB? human trafficking? Organ thieves? Or the devil himself? Dimitri saw it as a child and barely escaped. This eerie story explores how real paranormal legends emerge from historical trauma and disappearances.👤 Cindy Ketron shares a family ghost story passed down from her great-grandpa: The Decapitated Man's Ghost. During a wake in the early 1900s, men playing cards with a farmer's headless body were joined by an unexpected guest: the decapitated man's ghost himself, sitting down to play. This haunted story proves that sometimes the dead don't realize they're gone, and old supernatural stories have a way of sticking with us.Each phone call in this paranormal podcast captures real ghost encounters, ghosts and hauntings, and true ghost stories that blur the line between the living and the dead.

  • Nobody Warned Me Until It Was Too Late....The Grey Woman of Apartment 3F (Encore)
    Jan 14 2026
    (Encore Episode)

    Hosted by Michelle Newman | Tell Me A Ghost Story

    In this chilling new episode of Tell Me A Ghost Story, I'm sharing true paranormal stories from a place that was deeply personal to me, apartment 3F in San Francisco's Mission District. These are real ghost encounters experienced by multiple people, including myself, all centered around the same supernatural presence. These are modern ghost stories about a home that meant everything to our friend group... and the spirit who lived there with us.

    🏠 Apartment 3F was our hub, the heart of our late twenties friend group, a home away from home. Anytime you needed a place to crash, there was always room at Sarah's place. But here's the thing: no one who lived there would confirm there was a ghost. Not until years later, when we all finally realized we'd been experiencing the same haunting and just never talked about it.

    👻 I'm sharing my own real-life ghost story, the night I came home from a comedy show at 2 or 3 in the morning and walked face-to-face into the gray woman in the kitchen. Frizzy hair, gray sweater, gray skirt, sensible shoes. We were eye level. I think I startled her as much as she startled me. And then, blip, she was gone. This paranormal encounter was what finally got us all talking.

    🛏️ My friend Sarah, who owned the apartment, reluctantly shares her true ghost stories she'd kept quiet for years. The woman who watched her sleep. The presence that crawled into bed with her. The things she still won't talk about because she doesn't want to give them attention. Her haunted story is told with real hesitation; you can hear how much she doesn't want to feed whatever was living there.

    💍 Alex, Sarah's roommate, tells her ghost story with a different energy — jewelry mysteriously falling to the floor, being watched in bed night after night, until she finally got so fed up she yelled at the spirit to GET OUT. And it actually worked. Sometimes you just have to claim your space back from the supernatural.

    📞 I've also included phone calls from six other people who experienced the same entity, fleeting glimpses in the kitchen, corner-of-the-eye sightings, the woman standing by the sink at 2 AM. Each caller adds another layer to this haunting, proving this wasn't just our imagination. This was real paranormal activity witnessed by people who'd never even met each other.

    This episode weaves together ghost encounters, eerie stories, and haunted house experiences into one cohesive supernatural story. It's about a place where spirits linger, where friends saw the same presence but were too afraid to talk about it until we'd all moved on and could finally share the truth.

    Whether you're a believer in ghosts and hauntings, a skeptic curious about real ghost stories, or just here for spooky storytelling during spooky season, this paranormal podcast episode captures that space between the living and the dead. It's perfect for Halloween listening or any time you want true paranormal stories told through intimate phone calls and personal confessions.

    If you love haunted stories, supernatural encounters, real-life ghost stories, or hearing from people who've lived through something unexplainable, this is your invitation to turn down the lights and listen. Because apartment 3F wasn't just haunted — it was home to all of us. And to her.

  • A Spirit Plays Ding Dong Ditch and Other Real Ghost Stories
    Jan 7 2026
    Hey everyone, Michelle here!You guys brought it this week. I mean, seriously, the voicemails have been incredible. I sat down to go through them, and I got actual goosebumps listening to some of these. So let's just jump right in because I cannot wait to share what you all called in with.Sarah's Through-the-Door GuyFirst up is Sarah from Luther, Alabama. So this happened about five or six years ago when she was living in Florida. She and her ex were heading to a friend's house, and right as they're pulling into the driveway, she saw this man standing at the front door. Back turned to them, long hair, shorts, t-shirt, she could even see his socks. Just a regular-looking guy, right? Wrong.He walks straight through the door. Like, INTO the door and gone.Sarah made her husband drive around the block because she needed a minute. And honestly? Same. She's like, "I've seen things my whole life, but I've never seen anything go through a wall or a door." So they finally go inside, and she's asking, "Is anybody else here? Is anybody else here?" trying to make sense of what she just saw.Nobody was there.She mentions it to the guy who owns the house, and he's like, "Oh yeah, my brother-in-law saw the exact same guy you just described walking through my house." THE EXACT SAME GUY.Sarah, I love that you called in with this. And you said you hope to see something else soon? Call me when you do!Also, Sarah gave a shoutout to Cindy, who calls in all the time, and Cindy, we're getting to your story in just a bit because yes, you did call this week!Tessa and the Doll That Moved ItselfTessa grew up as a military kid, always moving around, temporary houses, the whole thing. When she was five, they rented this huge Victorian house in East Texas. Three stories, creaky everything, the works.The attic was full of the owner's stuff, old furniture, trunks, and this long glass case just FILLED with porcelain dolls. Like a hundred of them all lined up. And there's one doll Tessa just fell in love with, red hair, green eyes, this beautiful blue silk dress.She begged her dad to let her have it. He said no. He even locked the attic door.A month goes by, Tessa's kind of forgotten about the whole thing, and she comes home one day, and there's the red-haired doll sitting on her bed.At first, she thinks it's a surprise! She plays with it constantly until her dad gets home. When he sees the doll, he FREAKS OUT. Takes it away, marches straight up to the attic to put it back... and the door is still locked. His key is still in his pocket.Years later, Tessa learns the house's history. The man who built it had a daughter who died when she was eight years old.Back in those days, families would actually make a doll that looked like the child who passed away, using their real hair and putting it in the same clothes the child wore when they died.That doll was that little girl.The Post Street GhostAlright, so we got a call about an old estate jewelry place on Post Street, I think this was in San Francisco, back in 1993. Long offices, long hallways, and apparently, everyone who worked there knew about the ghost that would ring doorbells when people were alone.Our caller - I didn't catch your name, sorry! - he's there by himself one day, and sure enough, the doorbell rings. Goes to check. Nobody there.He glances down this long hallway and sees what he thinks is his coworker Brett. Tall guy, red flannel shirt.A few seconds later, the phone rings. It's Brett. "Hey, how are you doing?"Brett is not in the building. It was the ghost. And the doorbells just kept ringing the whole time he worked there.You said you have more stories, and honestly, I really want to hear them, so please call back!Ashley and the Queen MaryWhen Ashley was about 11, her whole family - like 12 people, aunts, uncles, cousins - went to California and toured the Queen Mary. You know, the famously haunted ship. One of her younger cousins got too scared, so her Aunt L had to take him back up to the main deck. Aunt L is in the elevator by herself, and she feels a little hand grab her knee. She looks around. Nobody there. She's completely alone in that elevator. They finish the tour, and they're taking pictures. They get back home to Utah, and Ashley's mom is looking through the photos and notices something in one of the pictures of the pool; there's a little girl in a blue gown standing in the corner. There's a story that a girl named "Jackie" drowned in that pool when the Queen Mary was still an active cruise ship, before it became a warship.So they find this interesting, right? Ashley's mom is a writer and decides to write a book about their experience. She kind of makes up a backstory for the little girl in the pool, gives her the name Victoria. The book is called "The Ghost of Queen Anne."But here's where things get weird.Every single time Ashley's mom sits down at the family computer to work on this book, the computer glitches out. Shuts off. Gets viruses even though they have ...

  • Real Ghost Stories from the Edge of Sleep (Encore)
    Dec 31 2025
    Hosted by Michelle Newman | Tell Me A Ghost Story Podcast

    In this chilling encore episode of Tell Me A Ghost Story, we’re diving into true paranormal stories shared through real phone calls, eerie confessions from ordinary people who’ve come face-to-face with something they can’t explain. These are modern ghost stories, told by the voices who lived them.

    🌲 Stevie from California shares a haunting encounter deep in the woods near Yosemite, a night of howling wind, a barking dog, and mysterious handprints left on every window of her locked car. Was it a ghost, or something far more human lurking in the dark?

    🎸 Johnny from Kansas tells a supernatural story about channeling the spirit of the late guitarist Randy Rhoads, a spectral presence that seems to appear whenever his music is played. This isn’t just a haunting; it’s a duet between the living and the dead.

    🍸 Frank the Bartender remembers the spirit of a former homeowner who didn’t seem to realize he was gone — a ghostly roommate who tinkered in the basement until Frank finally demanded peace. Sometimes, ghosts just need to be told to let the living sleep.

    👧 Emily recounts the night her young twins both saw “the girl in the corner,” smiling but unmoving — a terrifying haunting that leaves you wondering: who are our children really talking to when they say they see someone?

    💨 Aaron from Indiana gives us one of those quiet, bone-deep paranormal encounters: the sound of a sigh — right beside him in bed, in an empty, locked house. Just breath, presence, and chilling tension in the dark.

    🚗 Jess from Oregon retells the Pacific Northwest’s most famous roadside legend: The Bandage Man of Cannon Beach. A ghostly figure wrapped in bloody bandages is said to appear on Highway 101, pounding on car windows before vanishing into the fog.

    💀 Cynthia from Indiana brings a story passed down through her family: The Elderly Lady and Her Bag of Bones. A mysterious woman with a black cat and a bag full of human remains vanishes into thin air, echoing legends like El Silbón, the South American spirit doomed to wander the earth carrying his sins on his back.

    Each caller’s voice captures that liminal space between fear and curiosity, where the living meet the lingering. Whether you’re a believer, a skeptic, or just here for the storytelling, this episode weaves together ghost encounters, haunted dreams, and true paranormal stories with the intimate tone Tell Me A Ghost Story is known for.

    If you love ghosts and hauntings, true ghost stories, real-life ghost stories, or paranormal podcasts filled with spooky storytelling and personal confessions, this episode is your invitation to turn down the lights, press play, and listen closely. Because every whisper, every chill, every sigh, might be more than just the wind.

  • Haunting Dreams: Real Ghost Stories and Shadow Men (Encore)
    Dec 17 2025
    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. 👻

  • The Woman in the Red Dress Sat Down at the Diner… Then Vanished (Encore)
    Dec 10 2025
    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?

    True ghost stories from real people featured in this episode:

    1. James from Wytheville, Virginia -- The Spirit That Impersonated His Mother I'm taking you inside James's haunted house in Wytheville, Virginia, where he grew up surrounded by paranormal activity. Imagine encountering a spirit that impersonates your mother. James recounts his unnerving experiences navigating the unsettling blur between spirits and the living. A chilling real ghost story about identity, deception, and supernatural encounters that hit terrifyingly close to home.

    2. Jorge -- The Mysterious Bipedal Creature Caught on Film Next, I dive into Jorge's eerie encounter with a mysterious, bipedal creature that has lurked around his home for years. He shares how he captured this chilling figure on film, leaving us to ponder the existence of such paranormal beings. Is it a ghost, a cryptid, or something else entirely? A spine-tingling true paranormal story that defies explanation.

A haunting memory about love, loss, and supernatural visitations.


    4. Christina -- Angry Presence in a Rental Home Near the Cemetery Christina's unsettling experience in a rental home near a cemetery adds another layer of creepiness to this episode. Feeling an angry presence and witnessing a medical examiner's van outside creates a chilling connection to the supernatural events that transpired.
