(story location) Crete Il
(story Name)Axeman's Bridge
In the late 60's or early 70's, a man built a house in the middle of the woods in the township of Crete, IL. He lived in this house with his wife, mother-in-law, son and daughter. He was a hunter, had a dog and numerous horses. There were reports of domestic fighting/problems, and frequently the police had to break up the disagreement. One night, he decided he had had enough. He took his mother-in-law and daughter to the I-beam bridge that made up part of the driveway. He axed them to pieces. The same night, he axed his wife, son and the dog on the bridge that is on Old Post Road. The police never found him or his body. As far as I know, it is only assumed that it was him. From this night on, strange things have occured occassionally at Axeman's Bridge. If you catch it at the right time, you can hear him and his wife arguing loudly and her screams. The dog will chase you off the property. You can see the house lights, and the house was torn down. Certain parts of the house still remain. The I-beam bridge is still there, though deteriorating badly. There is a deer hunter's tower. One night, we got there and didn't see anything, so we decided to visit the horses (The people that bought part of the property have horses in his old pasture). One came up to me, I reached out to pet it, and my hand went right through it, and the horse disappeared. You can hear the sounds of an axe hitting the bridge and people running throught the forest. Sometimes just driving on the road and over the bridge, you get the feeling that you are being watched. After my first time there, I had that feeling for the next few nights. If you park the car on the bridge, the car will usually stall or have some sort of weird problems. A friend and I were out there last year, and we parked off the side of the bridge. The whole way home the doors kept locking and unlocking and the windows kept going up and down. Another group of friends and I took a Ouija board out there. The ghost of the Axeman (his name is James) "told" us that he knew who I was and that the rest were strangers who were not welcome there. There are other things also, but that would take up too much time. Oh, there is also a supposed Satanic church near-by, but I don't know the details or if it even exists or not, but they supposedly do rituals in the woods.

hello again fellows !!, yes i still have a creepy true story for all,
This event occured a few years back, i was 15 yrs at the time and as all teenagers do, tried that famous ouija board everybody was talking about.. We gathered a few friends for a session at my place on friday night (knowing my father was away for bussiness affair) We all tought it would be more apropriate, because our house was old an creepy !! week went on with the routine stuff, school, homeworks, ect... finally friday morning came !! we were all very excited about this little mysterious board session. Staring at the clock every hour or so, like the day would never end... so i got home after school, prepared the living room for this uncommon reunion, put candles everywhere, and finally waited for my friends to show up, 9h00 arrived bringing the crowd !!, we were six in total ( me, my sister,my 2 friends Chantal & Michelle & 2 of my sister's friend) ok, we displayed the board on the coffe table and kneeled down around it, with having closed the lights and lit the candles. We started the game, putting our fingers on the wood palette, asking silly questions at first, probably to lighten up the tension, we could feel electricity in the air.. We went on, but this time all were very concentrated on the board,, my sister ask if they were any spirits in the house, the board replied" Yes" so i ask if it was an old one, the board told us "107", we all got curious, wanted to know who that mysterious spirit was !! so we ask for a name,suddenly the wooden palette started swirling around in a circular motion, going faster ,couldnt keep our fingers on it !! at this point we all froze , nobody wanted to talk or even put their fingers back on the wooden palette, at once all the candles in the room started to glow brighter !!the flames streching and turning into a blue shade, we really got scared !!decided to stop this at once, but has my friend Chantal grabbed the wood palette she let out a scream and sigh, she had burned her fingers ! shouting out loud " oh god !! cant believe this !!. we all at that point toughts it was pretty unbelivable, scared the wits out off us all.. has we all took turn to touch the objec in a septic kinda way,we could feel it was still warm not burning, but unusually hot for a wooden object !!What happened that night? did we call upon a demon spirit, invited it in our home? All we know is that we had a pretty bad experience, and did'nt want to try to learn more about it.. We werent able to talk about what happened for several weeks after.Dont they say that a OUIJA bord is an open gate to hell ?? i would believe so.. and from that day never, ever touched one of these boards again !!!

The story i'm about to share with you all, happened 23yrs ago in my hometown of Chateauguay (Quebec). around x-mas time of 1974 i was 7-8 years old at the time. Let me start by explaining what happened on that particular year. My family was a happy one, average class, not poor, not rich,but we had all we needed, raise in respect of others & strong bonds between us, until one day my mother got rush to hospital not feeling good. We knew she was a diabetic and had to give herself injections of insuline twice a day,but something else was going wrong, very bad diagnosis, she was kept in hospital for several weeks, our father told us she was going to be just fine!, one morning it happened !!! we got hit with the unbelievable !! she had died in the night, her battle against general cancer was over.. Being to young we were (me & my twin sister)set aside did'nt attend the funeral or service. Grownups would tell us " remember your mother's face when she was healthy and with you" took us a while to deal with her absence, my father started drinking and being very depressed, so did'nt come easy for us.. Until that x-mas eve of the same year !! (my mother died in early march). We all went to bed early,feeling blue c'ause it was our first holiday without her, we wer'nt in the spirit !! as you might say. anyways!!, got to bed, pulled the blankets up to my chin, it was a cold night outside, tried to close my eyes, tossed & turned for what seemed to be an eternaty, then it occured to me !! got that strange feeling of something or someone peeking in my bedroom from the doorway, i slowly turned my head in that direction to see, what i saw at first was a sort of clouded white fog floating 3-4 inches from the ground !!! got really scared at this sight, but get staring, unable to move, my body paralyzed with fear...millions of toughts running trought my brain!!! but in a flash the fog changed shape and was replace with a more human profile the thing slowly drifted toward my bed, has it came closer i recognized her, my mother !! oh god !! the feeling i had was undiscribable, i bursted in tears all fear had left my body, wanted to ask her so much!!but no words could come out of my mouth. as a respond to my action she leaned on my face and i felt a kinda cold touch on my forehead, closed my eye for a moment, then looked back but she had vanished !!but i felt something from deep inside my soul, a burst of inner peace & joy know i'm all grown up, but still i know she is watching over my shoulder, guiding me trought rought times, since that particular day i became a true believer..woul'dnt you be ??

Okay. I'm a regular kinda' guy. My house on the other hand, is not a regular house. This a true story that freaked me out so bad.
I was alone in the house, doing my homework. The phone rang, so I went downstairs, and answered it, but no one was there. So I hung up the phone. As I was walking toward the stairs, I saw something out there window. I couldn't see it clearly, so I squinted. At that time, I saw a clear white figure. It was running up toward the house, and when it got a few feet away from the house, the front door opened and slamed shut, as if it came in. Then, all the doors in the house were opening and shuting at once! I got freaked out, so bad. That lasted for maybe...15 minutes. Then my mother came home a half-an-hour later. I told her what happened, but she doesn't believe me. Now, ever since, I see the white figure in my house, everynight. I've gottin used to it, but it still freaks me out.

(STORYNAME) encounter of a spooky kind
(Story) Yes i'm back with another spooky one !!! i had a few encounters with the spirit world. Has my aunt is a medium and my uncle is a healer, so i grew up with these particular notions of the death world of spirits and apparitions. My first experience was in all very revealing in many ways, so i kinda love when a sighting occures i remember that in 1987 i was attending a friend's wedding. It took place in a nice little church called " St-joachim" in our hometown of Chateauguay, in the back of it was a huge cemetery that i use to visit..(my mother is buried there) had not been there for a couples of years, so after the ceremony was over and everyone was gathering for the pictures, i sneaked out to take a walk in that old cemetery, brought a lot of memories (mostly good ones) i was feeling very peaceful walking trought the tombstones checking them out, feeling the cold stone as i touched a few. I was going torward my mother's grave to say hello and pray for her, i was still a few wards away,, when i noticed a strange men standing at one of the biggest tombstone in that part of the cemetery. I say strange, because he was glowing!!, a white soft kinda fog, like a mist surrounding is entire body. i watched him for a while, but he just stood there, an expression of lonelyness on is face, staring at this stone. Didn't scare me, i wanted to go and see him, so i walked back toward him, slowly , keeping me eyes on his every move, as i was only a few feet away, he turned around and looked back at me !! i got a shiver and stopped, tried to figure out is expression of anger, his eyes were a deep black, no white in them ! at this point i had a bad feeling about that "ghostly men" tought he was not as kind as i expected !! i stood in place, wanted to turn around and leave, but a force made me look back at him, he grinned with a malveillant smile and put his arms up as he wanted me to approach, i did'nt, was to scared of what would happen, instead i walked backwords, still watching him... After a few seconds that seemed like a eternaty, he slowly faded away, as he was leaving i could see him wave at me !!! So strange, cause i did'nt recall his face from my relatives, his not someone i knew.. Being curious i waited a few more sec, then whent to check the grave where i was standing earlier.. what i read gave me goosebumps, the writting on that grave told " in loving memories of my dear daugther Elisabeth" born on the same year i was(1967) and died in early 1980's, nothing particular from that... what gave me the spook was the Cameo in the middle of the grave with her picture in it, she looked almost similar to me !!!same hair color, same smile, same eyes. Wow !! i was stunned with suprise and felt sorry for her, and tought for a moment, that's probably why the spirit wanted me to come closer i reminded him of his dead daughter...Gee, i was so touched i forgot to go and say i to my mom and ran toward the church to the crowd and friends.....
