True Ghost Horror Stories That Will Give You Goosebumps
True ghost horror stories are not just tales spun in the dark hours of the night. They are real-life encounters that leave a lasting impact, like the one my grandmother shared about her brother. It's a story that will send shivers down your spine and make you realize that the real world can be far more terrifying than any movie.
A GIANT MAN OF AIR IN THE CHURCHYARD
Beautiful as the moonlit churchyard may be, it can also be the setting for horrors beyond our comprehension. My grandmother's brother was returning from work at midnight when he decided to relieve himself in the churchyard. In the dead of night, this brave soul stumbled upon an encounter that changed the night forever. He reported seeing a giant man who towered at a height of 211 cm, weighing a mere 209 grams – enough weight to float in the air. This man was taller than the famous Undertaker from WWE wrestling. The entity was invisible, fleshless, and could only be seen by my grandmother's brother.
When my grandmother's brother recounted his story, the terrifying encounter didn't end there. The man reportedly delivered a powerful slap, causing the witness to fall off his bed in the morning. This story is not just an eerie tale to scare by the fire; it's a hauntingly real account of an encounter with the supernatural.
HAUNTED HISTORY OF ZACHARY TURNER
But ghost stories don't always stop at the churchyard. They can delve into realms of murder, obsession, and the enduring legacy of the deceased. The case of Andrew Bagby and Shirley Turner, a story that feels more like something out of a Stephen King novel, exemplifies the kind of horror that can still linger in our worlds.
Andrew Bagby and Shirley Turner began a relationship in 1999, but Turner’s possessiveness and unusual behavior raised suspicions among friends and family. After a series of events, Bagby ended things, leading to a grim end. Bagby's body was found with multiple bullet wounds in a parking lot. However, the most chilling part of the story is that Turner, though already possessing a suicide attempt and murder charges from her time in the U.S., was granted freedom on a CAD75,000 bail.
Brought to justice in Canada, Turner sought custody of the child she claimed was hers. Miraculously, she was given joint custody and even the custody battle led to tragic ends – ending in the murder of her baby.
PARANORMAL PHENOMENA AND LEGAL LOGJAM
Stories like these bring to light the complex, often frustrating, legal and emotional struggles surrounding the aftermath of such tragic events. The case of Shirley Turner highlighted the need for legal reform, leading to the introduction of C-464 Bill, also known as "Zachary's Bill," which aimed to prevent the abuse of legal loopholes in similar cases.
The individuals involved in these stories remind us that ghost horror isn't confined to movie screens. It can be a real and haunting part of our world, affecting the lives of those left behind and sparking movements for better laws to protect children and families.
As someone who loves these chilling stories, I implore you to share these accounts to keep the spirit of these tales alive. Stay curious, be cautious, and perhaps most importantly, stay informed. These stories remind us that the line between the real and the supernatural is often thinner than we imagine.
