Military schools, barracks, and training grounds are places built around routine. But for some cadets and servicemembers, an ordinary night has brought unfamiliar voices, unexplained figures, and disturbances that seemed to have no clear source.

This compilation explores accounts from military academies, living quarters, and duty stations in the United States and overseas. From the connected hauntings of Wentworth Military Academy to a distorted voice in a Canadian training village and threatening dreams in Qatar barracks, these stories describe unsettling experiences in places servicemembers were expected to call home.
