I used to work in home health care in the far flung rural areas. We had this older lady patient who lived in a trailer out in the woods and some of the other staff that visited her expressed concern that she reported a man moving into her place who she said followed her home from the grocery store one day.
She told one of the nurses that she was afraid of him and wanted him gone, so she called the sheriff on him. She told another nurse that she was in love with him and wanted him to move in permanently. We did not know what to think and supposedly her son was dealing with this man so we were not too concerned.
I went out to see her and she and I sat at her kitchen table talking. She told me that he had moved out because they'd had a fight and good riddance.
About that time I glanced over to the kitchen pantry door and saw an eyeball looking at me where the knob should have been. I didn't react or say a peep, but looked at my pager and said I had to leave now as there was an emergency that I had to deal with at another patient's home.
I left and headed for the nearest pay phone and called the sheriff's department. This was before cell phones.
They later reported that they arrested the guy. Turns out he was preying on senior women in the county, sexually and financially. The son later reported that he was sexual with his mom while cleaning out her bank account as well.
I never see a pantry door that I don't think about that and it was over 20 years ago.

One that sticks out for me...

About a decade ago we bought an old house; it was on the National Historic register so we got the history to the place and found out the origional owner's 5 year old daughter had died there of illness in 1918 or so.

One day my wife and I were bored so we thought we would go to the city cemetary and look for the grave; it wasn't a huge cemetary but it wasn't exactly tiny and we had no clue where the girl was buried or if she was even buried there.

As we drove through the cemetary I just randomly stopped, got out of the car and literally walked straight to a little flat grave marker several plots in without looking at any of the other grave markers.

It was HER grave...out of the hundreds of plots I had somehow walked straight to it like I knew exactly where it was. I got chills and even a bit teary-eyed; the whole thing just creeped my wife out though.

A lot of strange things happened at that house... it's been a few years since we moved to another place that is pretty much paranormal-free and I almost miss spooky weirdness in my life.

I couldn't have stayed calm like that, I probably would've screamed or started shaking and stammering if I saw an eye like that.

I went partyi hoping with some friends when, from behind me in the van, a skunk ape began fondling me. Somehow I was dropped off at a park miles from home when the thing assaulted me, twice before I walked home. Couple weeks later my brother brought her home.

So, I picked it up and examined the contents. The wallet was still there, with driver's license, cards and all. The woman's first name was Andrea.

I decided to take it with me and return it to her address on the license, [just a few blocks away] but then in the middle of that plan, I got really spooked carrying it and ended up leaving it on a park bench for someone else to deal with it. It's an upscale park and I was sure it would get taken to the police or some lost and found.

A few days later I read an article in the local newspaper about Andrea. She had committed suicide in the park by hanging herself somehow from a high tree branch.
That is so so sad...

^ that's a sad story!

My creepiest experience was visiting Valley Forge. I could hear wind whistling (it was a still day) and the "feeling" of dead soldiers around me. The hair on my neck stood up.
