earlier this year i was sharing a flat with my ex-boyfriend. the flat was converted from a building that was five hundred years old and i became convinced that it was haunted by a sixteenth-century priest!
during the time that i lived there, i kept seeing something out of the corner of my eye walk through the hallway- sometimes i would see it go past several times in one evening! i would also keep getting mental images of christian iconology and a feeling of wanting to believe in christianity (this is very out of character for me!).
myself and my ex often heard unexplainable bangs coming from other parts of the flat, we were constantly replacing light bulbs that had blown in the hallway and attic and we would frequently get hymns in our heads that we hadn't heard, or even thought of, in years. my ex claimed that he could occasionally smell church incense in the living room but i never noticed it myself (there again, i wouldn't know what church incense smells like).
my ex never saw the "thing" walk through the hallway while i was living there so i wondered if i had imagined it due to lack of sleep. but a month after i moved out my ex said that he had started seeing it and his description of it matched mine exactly.
this is not a very scary story but it is the best one that i have that actually happened to me. so hopefully other members will have some ghost stories that will make mine look like an episode of the care bears.

Sometimes, when no one's there, I see one of my family members standing in the doorway. When I turn to look again, there is nothing.
Sometimes I even hear familiar voices when the person who matches the voice, is, as with the above, simply not there.

My mom used to sneak behind the door and make scratching noises on it after horror movie watching; it was especially effective after Nightmare on Elm Street movies.
My mom is electrokenetic. She walks under street lights and they go out; and once she walked by a christmas light bulb when super pissed and it exploded. She told em that she also exploded a regular light bulb recently. I seem to be coming into the power; street lights do go out for me now and again.

that happens to me too. but i thought it was just a coincidence because there doesn't seem to be a pattern to when it happens and when it doesn't. i'd like to swap my electrokenetic powers for pyrokenesis. fire..... pretty.
