I kinda do but I am not 100% 'convinced' that my experiences are ghost stories.

I do love watching ghost hunting shows on TV. I find paranormal stuff interesting. The thought that there's more to this shitty world we live in is comforting in a way. If that turns out to be blissful ignorance, then so be it. I know a lot of stuff in this world can't be explained (yet) and maybe I would not find out the answer in my lifetime so I keep an open mind about a lot of stuff.

I do have a few encounters but because I get too scared to fully investigate (ie, I run off/not look at it), I never really get the chance.

Me and my sister (I think I was between 8-10 years old at the time) woke up and 4 am and decided to sit outside on the patio. We were singing and just having fun when I suddenly saw a shadow fly off the window of the 2nd floor of the neighbor's house and towards sky. I ran off scared back to the house and so did my sister. She said she saw it and thought it was just a cloth flying off. But it's trajectory was going upwards (towards the sky) and there's no pull of gravity. One thing that made me doubt this experience (though I am pretty sure I was awake and I got my sister to back that up) was that the ghost looked like it was the ghost that you see on cartoons - like this . Only pure black:

Another experience was me already in college. Me and my cousins were sleeping on a relatives house (that is mostly abandoned, cept for one old caretaker who doesn't spend time in the house. The owner already died a long time ago which is like a distant relative of mine as well). I dont really like that house, it has this sad and eerie vibe in it. Anyhow, it was the holidays and the house next door (my aunt's house) is full. So me and my cousin occupied a room in that house. We were all huddled together in two beds attached with each other. All of a sudden, in the middle of the night. I could hear the door open and bang close. Repeatedly. At first I thought it was one of my cousins taking a piss but it did not stop. (I had my face covered with a pillow. Didnt' dare to look). It happened over and over again and it was freaking me out. I know that door is not loose because we went through it before (obviously since we had to go through it to get in and out of the room =P). I thought I heard someone singing too but I cant remember that part very well. But I am damn sure about the door. I asked my cousins about it the next day and they heard nothing..all of them were really asleep.

Third experience that I can remember was when I was in a nighttime programming class. It was 9:30 pm at night and no one was at the facility except us (6 students and a teacher). I excused myself from the class to take a piss and as I was walking to bathroom stalls in the ladies room, as I was standing at the door... I heard a loud bang from the inside of one of the cubicles. Like someone was trying to get out of it. No voices whatsoever just loud repeated banging sounds again. I did not dare to investigate, it could be a ghost or someone crazy or something. So I turned around and left. I went back with a friend but it was gone. *shrugs*

Not ghost related but I do have three experiences that are weird that relates to me getting out of an accident (one could've been fatal) unscathed somehow in the weirdest of ways.
