My story..

I used to work at a store called Dollar Tree here in Norfolk, VA back around 2000. There was a rumor going on about a ghost that frequented the store... it would make itself visible every once in a while. The old timers at the store had gotten used to it and never really talked about it that much.

I asked one of the old timers about it and she said that she had seen him... but she didn't want to tell me anything to influence me.... she'd let me see myself.. I walk away laughing... I didn't believe there was any such thing as ghosts really...they were just a thing in horror movies.

I worked the morning shift.. off loading the truck whenever it came in and stocking shelves until we opened for business. I was stocking one morning and started smelling what seemed like coffee brewing. We didn't have a coffee machine in the store anywhere, nor did we sell coffee in the store.. and no one had brought coffee in that morning.

I called to person working with me to see of he could smell it as well... he couldn't smell anything. The smell was still extremely strong to me. I went back to stocking the shelves and looked to my right... at the end of the isle was a gentleman dressed in 30s/40s era clothing.. a bowler hat.. a suit.. and shining shoes... he was holding a mug in his hand.. I could see steam flowing from it. I said "HEY!!" and he didn't move.. my co worker yelled from across the store "WHAT!?" I looked over at him and said "Nothing!"... when I looked back to the gentleman there was a solid white mist there and it was fading away slowly.

I was definitely shook up... but I said nothing for the next couple days because the old timer I talk to earlier was off the next couple days. She came back and I asked her, "Do you smell coffee when he comes around?" She said "yes"... I described him to her and she put her hand out.. I shook it and she said " Welcome to the Club"

From that day forward I know that ghosts/spirits live among us... on a different plane hidden from our sight... but still there.. some are trying to communicate to their loved ones... some are evil and want to spread harm and chaos. But they are real.

That's a whale of a tale Joel McHale, but I still can't buy it. I think that old lady spiked your drink and was fucking with you.

Anyone always have that feeling that someone is behind you but no one isn't? I don't believe in the supernatural, but I remember weird stuff happening. Like, I went downstairs to go grab some water and one of my pictures were moving side to side. Me being fucking cautious, I was like, "Is anyone there? Come out, I know you're hiding." before walking around looking with a broom in hand.

No one was there though and I got my water. True story

I would have said that if my picture was near me at all. Like trust me, it was exorcist stuff, hard frame cover, doesn't even move when people walk down the stairs. I was like, "What the fuck?"

Aye, and it's called being cautious smurf.

I used to work in a bar which was allegedly haunted- I didn't believe that for a second. One of the other barmaids wouldn't go into the basements alone, but I would. Yes it was creepy, but it was a basement and the machinery was noisy.
Anyway, one evening I'm alone in my bar (there are three separate bars in the building) and I was just grabbing a few glasses to stock up for when I open the bar (Mine opened last every evening) I feel something pressing against my arm, it almost feels like hair being dragged across it- I look at my arm and there is nothing there at all, but I can still feel it.

Another thing that happened to me..

I was watching an episode of Ghost Adventures late one night... they were investigating something in New Orleans and had hired a Voo Doo Priestess to come to the site they were investigating to try and provoke the spirits. The priestess started chanting and knowing nothing about Voo Doo and being bored I repeated her chants... the episode finished and I went to sleep... had a dream of being chased through a forest by 2 wolves... they caught me.. bit me on the leg and I woke up...

A couple minutes after I woke up I noticed my leg had a burning feeling.. I looked down to see a full bite mark on my leg with blood trickling from it... it looked like a canine bite from the bite size. I haven't had a dog since I was 8 years old.. I didn't own a cat then.. there were zero animals in my apartment. I don't know of anything that could have bitten me on my leg and drawn blood.

So, anyway yeah... that's it.

Spider bites can be nasty dude. It doesn't have to be a big spider to fuck your shit up. I also find it strange you only mention this story now after the fact, because it seems like a strong opener. Stronger than coffee smells.

lol... I rarely think of either of my experiences.. when I saw your thread was really the first time I had thought about them for a long time now. The first one I posted so quickly because I copied and pasted it from when I wrote about it on Facebook nearly 4 years ago, the second one popped into my mind a few minutes after that.
