21 Paranormal Events That Law Enforcement Has Witnessed

It’s good to know that law enforcement isn’t exempt from having paranormal experiences. If anything, I believe the higher your rank in the government, the more frequently you should be haunted. For instance, one corrections officer was creeped out every Sunday at 9 p.m., when an inmate would appear to be sitting in a visitation room, despite the officer insisting that such a presence couldn’t be possible, explaining that “by 4:30, officers cleared the floor room by room and locked up.” 

That’s a case Fox Mulder would love to solve. 

Other badge-carrying Redditors have remembered the supernatural occurrences they’ve witnessed, and each of their stories makes The X-Files seem like a documentary.

3y ago Edited 3y ago I was a medic in the army and I was ordered to babysit a couple of soldiers in their barracks room because of poltergeist activity they were experiencing. The two soldiers apparently hadn't slept in a while and complained of objects being thrown at them. The command sent me because they had no clue where to go on the issue and figured they could have a rotating guard until they figured something out. A few days later they just moved the guys to a different room. Edit. Funniest part was listening to the battalion
aegri_mentis 6y ago Responded to a single vehicle crash out in the county. Found the car, it had left the road, crashed through a fence, rolled at least three times, came to rest right side up. The driver was mangled pretty bad, and actual paramedic says he's deceased, we secure the scene, wait for the coroner. Coroner gets there, declares him dead., starts his investigation/documentation. About 20 minutes into it, we are all near the coroner van discussing the situation. We are about 20 feet from the victim car. The driver (who hasn't been removed yet) sits up, looks around,
1y ago One of the high schools here in my city had two teenage girls fall through a skylight into the gym one night, both passed away from there injuries. A couple years later I was talking to a police officer at our BJJ class, I was telling him how I work for the School District. Не goes on to tell me how the PD gets calls through out the night of different classroom lights getting turned on and off specifically at the high school where the two girls passed away. Не tells me that him or another officer
5y ago Late evening maybe a decade ago, I ended up running silent to a call with additional units in tow. The caller reported hearing footsteps on her second floor when she was in the kitchen. She lived alone, middle aged, divorced, no kids, and had no expected company. She is outside across the street when we arrive, obviously unnerved and being calmed by her neighbor. Other units showed up almost as I did and set up a perimeter at the corners of the property. We talk with her, get permission to enter, so we decide we'll announce ourselves
SirNobealot 5y ago I am a police officer working on an emergency response team on a busy London borough. We took a call to a suspected domestic incident in a block of flats. The informant said that she could hear screaming and sounds of disturbance coming from the flat above her own. Once we arrived my colleague and I knocked on the door of the flat the informant said the noise was coming from. had heard nothing on my way up and certainly couldn't hear any disturbance coming from the address. To be honest I heard nothing at all. After
DerpyTheCow47 5y ago Early in my career, the elevators in the older section of CIA Headquarters (known as the Original Headquarters Building or OHB) were known to have quirks (I think they still do). Occasionally, the elevator would stop and the doors would open at a floor with no one there, and no one on the elevator had requested that floor. I heard second-hand that the thing to do when that happened was to say Good day, Mr. Director, because it was assumed that the doors opened for the ghost of Allen Dulles. ОНВ was his project, as many know,
Jrodri0502 5y ago Military policeman in the marine corps. While stationed at Camp Lejeune a dispatcher got a call from a terrified wife that kids were trying to get into her house (it was a little after midnight) we thought this was just a drunken spouse call and responded not on high alert just kinda wanted to make sure the lady was alright we knock on the door and announce ourselves. The woman is obviously shaken still with puffy eyes. She tells us 4 children with red eyes rang her doorbell and asked to come inside and when she refused
10y ago Navy Security Forces member here. This will probably get buried but oh well. I was on shift with a DoD police officer on the oldest Navy base we have in the states. We get a call about an alarm going off in a near by office and it be being midnight, we quickly get over there. When we get to the building there are lights on in the second story. We try all the doors and they are locked, try the windows- locked, look for any possible entry way and everything is sealed up tight. We call
Zombie_Dance_ 10y ago My uncle works for dispatch in my town and he recently told my family of the weirdest call he's ever gotten. Не says that he had received a call from a landline one night and when he answered it there was only static on the other end. This happened two more times. Finally he calls a squad to go check out the address from the caller ID. When the cops got there and walked into the house they immediately saw that there was a dead body. The person had been dead for 5 months. The craziest part
sccrj888 7y ago Edited 7y ago Cop here. Partner and I were dispatched to a welfare check. Elderly guy, nobody had seen him in a few days, mail over flowing in mailbox, missed a doctor's appointment, car hasn't moved, etc. We both know we are about to find a body. We arrive on scene and can't get anyone to the door, look through the window and sure enough, we can see his foot on the floor in the living room. My partner is a corporal and pulls rank and makes me go first. Door is unlocked and as soon as
jeep_devil_1775 7y ago I work in a pre civil war town that has lots of antebellum homes that survived the war. Ghost hunters have been to the town on several occasions. There is this one antebellum mansion that is more of a museum, that gets alarm calls semi frequently. Every time, the side door to the house is open and the kitchen has all cabinet doors and drawers open. Every. fucking. time. The care taker says its been happening since she started looking after the place about 30 years ago. We don't clear it without backup. + 5K ...
TheCopenhagenCowboy 7y ago Not a сор, but I used to work private security. For a bit I worked at a shopping mall. My partner and I already had a feeling this place was haunted, one reason being the homicide that happened right before I was hired. The very west of the mall made the hair on my neck stand up the most and I don't know why. It's also good to note that there is an animal shelter at this end of the mall. You can see the cats and dogs through the windows at night. They would bark and
jtesagain625 7y ago My partner and I received a 911 call from an old woman having a dispute with someone. We get to the house and she says she alone. We say who are you having a dispute with? She says, oh just this spirit in one of my rooms immediately me and partner look at each other and give the ole she's elderly, it's prob dementia or something along those line As we're talking to her, she's explaining how sometimes a bad spirit comes around. She states that he's in the back room and (of course) the lights don't
7y ago Edited 7y ago My dad used to work as a correctional officer at Goulburn jail in Australia, which is probably one of the oldest and hardest prisons there. A story he tells of his time there is one I always remember. Не said that the whole place was creepy anyway, not helped by some of the inmates at the time including the notorious Ivan Milat (on which 'wolf creek' is based). Anyway first thing he noticed was that dogs would outright refuse to enter the prison. Не said they couldn't get them past the gate no matter
PRO-WOMEN PRO-CHOICE lexi_lawson 7y ago e Edited 7y ago EMT here, once had a call at our local mall. Show up and an eight year old was having breathing problems. Her mother, aunt and cousin had just been caught stealing and it was late at night. We assumed the breathing problem was stress induced. Once we got into the back of our unit she looked my partner and myself in the eyes and said that she lived at a bad place. She said she lived with demons and I shit you not as she described the demons her heart rate
engie_945 3y ago I got called to persistent fire alarms being set off in a block of flats that used to be a poor house in the 1800's. The alarms would go off 3-4 times a night at certain times of the year. We arrive and residents are all outside saying they could hear a woman crying, no one wanted to go in as they assumed it was her that was setting the alarms off and she might be crazy. We went up, yup sure enough could hear a woman crying, sounded like the stairwell.. up We went and walked,
3y ago Graveyard shift security at a hotel/casino. We got called to the top floor of the hotel because people from the floor below were calling in noise complaints. I was the FNG so I had a trainer with me when we went up. Dispatch told us over the radio that there was nobody registered on that floor, so cool, just a few idiots being idiots. We got up there and every single door on the entire floor was wide open. Anyone who has been to these hotels knows that you can't just accidentally leave the doors open because
spicolis_tastywaves 1y ago Edited 1y ago There was an incident from my hometown that made national news & it made believers out of many. A young Mom & her infant were driving home from a friend's house at night when she crashed her car, which ended upside down in a river. The following day, a fisherman saw the car and called emergency personnel. When law enforcement officials went down the embankment to the crash site, 4 different officers heard a distinct voice calling, Help me, help me. Hearing the voice caused them to work frantically & to flip the car
Ems_belle 1y ago I had one call where we were doing CPR on an older gentleman, his wife screaming he can't be dead, he can't be dead! I look up and both my partner and I swear we saw him standing in the corner of the room watching us try to bring him back. Не didn't make it but Holy hell that was creepy + 76 ...
Sly_Hyde 1y ago This isn't from the streets, but I was a corrections officer at a 112 year old prison. I would have a control post every Sunday night from 4p-12a. At nine pm every Sunday there would be an inmate in visitation sitting there on camera. I knew for a fact there was nobody up there, because by 4:30 officers cleared out the entire floor room by room and locked up. Also on overnight shift, in one unit I would have someone come up to my office window and look in. This is after counting, ensuring all doors were
