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 about hospital hauntings, cursed rooms, ghosts that only appear in peripheral vision, and supernatural encounters that challenge what we think we know about haunted spaces. These are real ghost encounters told by the voices who lived them.
👻 James from San Francisco returns with more stories from his decade working at UCSF Medical Center on Parnassus, one of the most haunted hospitals in California. Real-life ghost stories about volcanic smoke rising from urinals, bathroom voices that vanish the moment you open the door, and invisible hands pulling at his jacket on the basement stairs. He tells us the kitchen where he worked used to be a morgue, and rumors of an exorcism on the eighth floor of the Children's Wing in the early 1980s. This true ghost story explores what happens when the living work alongside spaces meant for the dead.
🏚️ Melissa from Pittsburgh shares a chilling ghost story about Graystone House, a sprawling stone mansion built in the 1700s as a stagecoach inn and brothel, later turned into a group home for teenage boys. Every single day at 6 PM, the doorbell rings. Multiple doors. Nobody's ever there. Faucets turn on full blast in empty rooms. Someone or something loves a good prank.
🚪 A caller shares an unsettling story about a five-bedroom rental house with one room nobody can keep filled. Four different tenants have rented that room by the main entryway, and all four ended up in rehab or developed serious addiction problems. This true paranormal story explores the terrifying connection between spaces and suffering. I dive into Dr. Gabor Maté's book In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts and the Buddhist concept of hungry ghosts — beings trapped in endless cycles of craving and emptiness. What if some rooms hold hunger? What if desperation can soak into walls the same way smoke does? This haunted story isn't about chains rattling; it's about spaces that recognize your emptiness and whisper that nothing will ever be enough.
👁️ Chuck from Upstate New York tells a ghost story that's been haunting his entire neighborhood: the woman in the empty lot. Where a house burned down decades ago, there's now just weeds and broken concrete. And a woman who stands there. But you can only see her out of the corner of your eye. Chuck and his neighbors have all seen her, wearing something pale, standing perfectly still, never moving. This eerie story explores ghosts that exist only in peripheral vision, in that uncertain space between seeing and not-seeing.
🕯️ Diane from Sedona, a practicing diviner, shares a true paranormal story about a Ouija board session that went too far. She was helping someone contact his deceased father when her hands went ice cold, and her whole body started shaking uncontrollably. She describes feeling "squished inside her own body, making room for something else to move in." She has no memory of the conversation that followed. The man testing her lifted his finger off the planchette completely, and it kept moving, flying across the board with only Diane's finger on it. When she "came back to herself," the complete skeptic she'd been reading for was pale and shaking, because she'd told him things only his father could have known.
👔 Cindy Ketron shares a family ghost story passed down from her great-grandpa: the day he met the devil in a hayfield during the Great Depression. A normal-looking man in a business suit appeared with a notepad and pencil, offering a contract to solve great-grandpa's problems. When great-grandpa simply said, "What if I told you I didn't want the offer?", the devil didn't know what to do and disappeared. This haunted story from the 1930s reminds us that sometimes the scariest thing you can do to something that wants power over you is simply refuse to be afraid.
Each phone call in this paranormal podcast captures real ghost encounters, hospital hauntings, addiction's spiritual dimensions, and true ghost stories that blur the line between the living and the dead. Whether you believe in spirits or approach these as spooky storytelling, these real paranormal stories connect us through shared experiences with the unexplainable.
