The Coronation Street set is widely believed to be haunted, with a long history of unexplained events and ghostly sightings. Cast and crew have reported hearing footsteps following them when alone, and one actress was terrified of the dark corridors as a child. In 2017, a 1960s tribute band was so frightened by "exploding" equipment and strange banging noises that a priest was called to perform an exorcism on the soundstage. The old studio was built on the site of a cemetery, and the new set sits on former docklands where many men died during construction.

Close your eyes and step into a world where children aren't always what they seem. This collection of six real ghost stories comes from firsthand accounts of experiences that witnesses still can't fully explain. From a girl with no eyes sobbing on a landing, to a house so haunted there were parts of it you simply didn't go after dark, and two sisters who let something in that they really shouldn't have. The warning is clear: some doors are better left closed, and some children are better left outside.

Strelley Hall in Nottinghamshire is widely regarded as haunted, with a reputation built on centuries of dark history and a famous piece of paranormal evidence. Beneath the hall lies a medieval dungeon that was used to imprison murderers and thieves from the 14th century through the 1900s. The most chilling legend says that in the 1600s, a group of women accused of being witches were locked in the dungeon and placed a curse on the Strelley family before they died. In 2015, a ghost hunt captured a translucent figure in the cellar archway, believed to be the spirit of Queen Elizabeth I.

A woman's life changes forever after she dies, only to find the afterlife is not what she expected. In one story, a little girl used a 3-year-old to tell her father that he's "happy" and at peace. A mother felt her foot shaken after telling her son killed in Iraq that she hoped he could hear her. But not all encounters are comforting. One person recalled feeling "something oppressive" that made them act differently. A woman tried to hand pieces of a tea set to her granddaughter, only to realize she was alone in the room. These encounters leave behind more questions than answers.

The Cecil Hotel in Los Angeles has earned a reputation as one of the most haunted and tragic locations in America. Since 1924, the hotel has been the scene of at least 16 confirmed deaths, from suicides to unsolved murders. It was the temporary home to serial killers Richard Ramirez and Jack Unterweger, who committed murders during their stays. The hotel's most infamous case is the 2013 death of Elisa Lam, whose body was found floating in a rooftop water tank. Her eerie elevator footage fueled countless paranormal theories.

A house where no one stays long is a house that remembers everything. In one Missouri home, a tall black figure in a trench coat stood behind the door, and the basement light refused to stay off [citation:10]. A family in Lincolnshire woke to find an old woman in black glaring from the corner of their bedroom, her piercing blue eyes following them from the dark [citation:1]. In another house, a ghostly voice answered from the kitchen when the child thought she was alone, and at night, small dark shapes peeked around the doorframe [citation:5]. These are the places where the living are simply visitors.

The Myrtles Plantation, built in 1796 in St. Francisville, Louisiana, has earned its reputation as one of America's most haunted locations. Its history is a tapestry of tragedy and alleged paranormal activity. The most famous ghost is that of Chloe, a slave who was said to have been forced to wear a green turban to hide a severed ear after being punished for eavesdropping. Legend claims she poisoned the family's two daughters, leading to her own death at the hands of the other slaves. Visitors today report seeing her ghost, along with other spirits, wandering the property, and rooms are known for unexplained cold spots and the scent of perfume.

The site of the Saint Valentine's Day Massacre in Chicago is considered one of the city's most haunted locations. The violent deaths of seven men are said to have left a "psychic scar." At night, visitors report hearing the rapid fire of tommy guns, men screaming, and the ghostly howl of a dog that survived the attack. The bricks from the wall where the victims were executed were sold as souvenirs, but buyers claimed they were cursed and returned them. The wall is now on display at the Mob Museum in Las Vegas.
