The 9 Most Haunted Websites On The Internet

Others have reported strange chills, and hearing a quiet weeping sound.

The BBC News website is haunted by the ghost of a Roundhead soldier from the English Civil War.

Gawker is haunted by a ghost dog!

BuzzFeed has had on ongoing haunting since the day Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, and Jennifer Lawrence recorded a genuinely funny Vine together. The Vine resulted in the figurative, and in some cases, literal deaths of millennial fans. Those millennials now haunt BuzzFeed's CMS, writing ghostly identity posts, and advocating for ectoplasm reform.

Wikipedia is the most haunted website. Nobody is entirely sure how many ghosts Wikipedia has, but conservative estimates put it in the thousands. Editors working to revert changes alone late at night tell tales of whole paragraphs moving around by themselves, unexplained banging noises, mysterious winds blowing through the site, and the sensation of ghostly hands reaching for their throats. Ghosts said to roam Wikipedia include a crying seamstress, a headless pirate, a pair of undernourished twins with eerie glowing eyes, a spectre known only as "the pale man", a Roundhead soldier from the English Civil War, and President Taft.
