11 Penny's Orbs

Penny is a lady who since 12 had a gift and claimed she constantly felt paranormal activity around her. One night she was watching TV and she saw a floating orb. This visit continued for 3-4 nights. Finally the activity got sinister as she soon started seeing the full body of a child in blue light. She shared her experience with her father who completely affirmed her experience as he too was seeing the same stuff simultaneously. Now that’s spooky for you and I always though orbs are usually friendly.

12 Black-Eyed Ghost (or Black-eyed Children)

It’s an universally accepted fact ghost are scary in any form or shape but apparitions with black eyes are the ultimate nightmares enough to scar you for life. In 2015 a group of ghost hunters in Staffordshire claimed to have had visual evidence of the famous Black Eyed Child of Cannock Chase. The hunters discovered that according to legend in 1800’s the black-eyed boy had died of diphtheria, which might or might not explain the existence of this creepy black-eyed boy.

13 Children at the Spy House

The spy house of New Jersey was built way back in 1600s by Thomas Whitlock, and is THE MOST HAUNTED house in the United States. It seems this building now acts as a multi-purpose shack for Whitlock and his bevy of pirate ghost friends like a hotel/ brothel/pub house for the dead etc. Surprisingly it also has an unaccountable amount of child ghost sightings as well which is quite baffling for ghost hunters. There have been umpteen amounts of sightings of group of children playing in the front yard, which looks quite normal from a distance. Its only if you look closely enough none of them are dressed according to this era or the most disturbing fact they all have those quintessential horrid black eyes!

14 The Begging Boy

This one is so heartbreaking it hurts while I write about it too. The old ruins of Castlyons, Cork, Ireland houses a really tragic boy ghost. He wanders aimlessly and runs into anyone who can see him and piteously begs for his life while repeating the final, tragic moments of his death. It’s a gut-wrenching experience for many and more so as it frustrates us that we cannot do anything to help this boy from his misery.

15 Yeats's Ghost

Well, who could have thought that an illustrious author like W.B Yeats would have a tryst with the supernatural and that to a successful one? While conducting séances in his residence which was quite a common practice in Edwardian high society, he was contacted by a supernatural boy who promised to visit his wife Georgia. And guess what? It actually happened….later that evening his wife gets a special visitor appearing out of a mist who spoke to her. Later Georgia described the phantom boy’s face as having a pallor which reflected tragedy which should never be experienced by any boy his age.
