Well, it's really hard to know for sure. Sometimes there are physical signs that could indicate something strange. For instance, if there are unexplained scratches on walls or objects moving on their own without any natural cause. But then again, some people might be making things up or misinterpreting normal events. So, it's a combination of looking for consistency in the stories, any evidence that can't be easily explained away, and the credibility of the people telling the story. A lot of times, though, it's just a matter of belief.
There are a few ways. First, if there are eyewitness accounts from reliable people. By reliable, I mean people who have no reason to lie and are known for being honest. Second, if there are any paranormal investigations done in the area with some sort of evidence like strange electromagnetic readings or unexplained sounds caught on tape. However, we have to be careful because sometimes these things can be faked or misinterpreted. And third, if the story has been passed down through generations in a particular area and the details remain consistent, that could also be an indication of truth, but it's still not 100% certain.
I had a terrifying experience in a cemetery. I was walking through it late at night (not the smartest thing to do, I know). Suddenly, I felt like I was being watched. I turned around and saw a figure in white, but when I blinked, it was gone. It gave me chills for days.
Well, usually there would be a specific platform or website for submitting. Look for a 'Submit' button or a link that says something like 'Share Your Ghost Story'. It might ask you to create an account first, fill in some basic information like your name (could be a pen name), and then there should be a text box where you can type out your spooky tale.
My family used to live in a very old apartment. One evening, I saw a white figure pass by my bedroom door. I thought it was my mom, but when I called out, there was no answer. I went to check, and no one was there. It happened a few more times, and it always made me feel uneasy.
One time, I visited an old, abandoned asylum. As I walked through the dark corridors, I could swear I saw a figure out of the corner of my eye. It was like a shadowy shape that disappeared when I turned to look directly at it. I also heard what sounded like moaning coming from one of the rooms. I quickly left the place, and I still get chills thinking about it.
Yes, I once had a strange experience in an old, abandoned house. I heard footsteps when no one else was there. It was really creepy.
One of the most haunting ghost stories I've heard was from a friend who used to live in an old Victorian house. She said that at night, she would often hear the sound of a rocking chair creaking in the attic, even though there was no rocking chair up there. One time, she saw a faint figure of a woman in a white dress through the attic window. It really gave her the chills.
I recommend "Don't Be Companion with Spirits". This is a story about a female Daoist who regains her Yin Yang Eyes and can see ghosts. There are some ghost stories in it, but they are not scary. It's more about love and growing into an outstanding Daoist. I hope you like my recommendation, Mwah~
You could try submitting them to websites that specialize in paranormal or horror content. Some popular ones are [mention specific websites].
I once had an experience in an old, abandoned house. I heard strange creaking noises as if someone was walking on the floorboards above me, but I was on the top floor. It sent shivers down my spine. I quickly left that place and never went back.
Well, if it's for a local writing group or a small community event, you could directly approach the organizer. They'll tell you how to submit your ghost story. Maybe it's just an email with the story attached. But if it's for a big publisher, you'll have to be more careful. They might require a query letter first, introducing your story briefly and your writing experience.
