Real Cavers Share True Ghost Stories[/color]
Posted: April 27, 2013 in True Ghost Stories
I’ve written about haunted caves before, but these true stories come from cavers themselves. Settle in and read about the mysteries that lie beneath.
A Tap on the Shoulder
“I was down in this cave that happens to have a lot of history in it. I had bent down to tighten up my boot and someone or something tapped me on the neck with a finger, only there was no one nearby. There were no bats flying, no loose straps, no water drops, nothing. But a finger playfully poked me on the neck causing me to almost lose my balance. Yes, I almost made my own cave mud stains. It SPOOKED ME BIG-TIME!!”
Cave Chat
The Miner’s Candle
“Some years ago several of our club had a trip into Water Icicle. Needless to say, before we went down we discussed in some detail ‘odd’ experiences” various members had reported on previous trips. One of our group was particularly disturbed by these stories because as a child he had briefly occupied a house that had to be exorcised.
He was the last person out and as he sat at the bottom of shaft in the entrance chamber, his imagination began to get the better of him and he was most unhappy. A call came from above ‘rope free.’ He stood up, but as he walked towards the rope he heard something (someone?) shuffling towards him along the passage. He turned round but there was nothing there. Imagination?
He clipped onto the rope and began to climb. Suddenly he felt a tug from below. Not daring to look down, he climbed as fast as he could. Once inside the narrow part of the shaft he felt a little less ‘exposed,’ so he paused for a brief rest and plucked up the courage to look down. Below him he could see the glow of what appeared to be a miner’s candle!
He immediately set off at high speed but no matter how fast he climbed the “candle” followed him, when he stopped it stopped! When he climbed it too began to climb. He was petrified, an understatement if ever there was one.”
