@o6666666's (Ao3) An Irresistible post-ep So, one might say, he’s tricked her. 

“There was an exorcism here,” he says, pointing with his middle finger to the house across the street from where they have parallel parked. “On this night, in 1949.”

Post-Irresistible Mulder tricks Scully into getting more sleep.

@cecilysass/cecily_sass/Cecily Sasserbaum's Beacon (Ao3) She forces herself to take three breaths. Then, she decides, she’s going to ask. Because she needs to know. It has to be better than just wondering.

“Mulder,” she starts, “you’re worried about the ghost targeting you because … because there’s someone significant in your life, isn’t there?”

Mulder doesn’t shift his gaze from the ceiling, but a muscle in his jaw pulses.

“It’s okay if you don’t want to tell me who she is,” she adds quickly. “I understand. We don’t always talk about things like that. I just … I just wanted you to know I’m your friend, and you could share that. If you wanted.”

S3 Mulder and Scully investigate a hotel haunted by an avenging ghost (and mistake each other's feelings.)

@numinousmysteries/numinous_mysteries's The Baying of the Six-Pound Hound (Ao3) He'd been in an uncharacteristically deep sleep when the yapping woke him up, which made it all the more annoying. It was rare for him to be so fully disconnected from the waking world. Typically, he'd float just below the surface of consciousness, the smallest noise enough to rouse him. But on this night, in a narrow, single-story motor lodge wedged up in the Colorado mountains, Fox Mulder had been completely, deeply, aslumber.

He'd been dreaming, too. 

Post-Quagmire Mulder believes he's being haunted by a furry little ghost.

@mldrgrl's (Ao3) Drabbles! 9 and 95 “What did you expect?” Mulder asked as they crossed back to the other side of the island and back to the boat.  “Ghosts don’t usually come out and introduce themselves.”

“There is no such thing as ghosts, Mulder.  I expected…I don’t know what I expected.”  She sighed in exasperation.

Post-Quagmire Mulder and Scully are stranded on a haunted island.

prufrockslove’s (Ao3, Geocities) Finding Rokovoko (Ao3)  Mulder got them lost in the Everglades and trapped in a collapsing, haunted old mental hospital. She’d lost her sister. Scully’s career was the same joke as his. If removing the microchip implanted during Scully’s abduction had caused her cancer – her work with Mulder had caused her abduction. She’d folded her arm beneath her head as a pillow, drank a quarter of the canteen of water, and swallowed six tiny bites of the candy bar of the future. That took ten minutes and resulted in a nap.

As Mulder waited, he used his fading flashlight and saved the battery on hers.

Post-Never Again Mulder and Scully are stranded in a world-between-worlds of black-eyed children and buried experiments, with disastrous effects on Scully's health.

emmbright/Emma Brightman's (LJ) What is Essential "I don't know, Scully. Maybe we just needed some time together, after...well, after everything," he says lamely.

"What, like a Halloween miracle?" She shakes her head in disbelief. "You must be kidding. There has to be a better explanation than that."

Post-Detour Mulder and Scully discover-- of all things-- a haunted gas station.

Jill Selby's Poised for a Fall "Hang on, Scully! Just hang on."

As if I need a reminder. But I bite down on the urge to fling a sarcastic response as I squint up into his flashlight's beam and nod. As frantic as he is, it's hardly the appropriate moment.

And if things don't work out, I don't want to risk leaving him with that final memory of me.

Mulder and Scully explore (nearly fatally) a haunted tower.

@purrykat/mylifeinshadow's 32 from the prompt list. “Two words, Scully,” he says by way of greeting. Just like that, you’re immediately exhausted. At your raised eyebrow, he continues. “Lizzie Borden.”

“Took an axe,” you recite, dryly. “Gave her mother forty wacks.”

Mulder, Scully, and a Lizzie Borden stakeout.

@libbytxf/LibbyT's My Funny Valentine (Ao3) “Scully, do you know the Hotel El Dorado, in San Diego?”

Scully looks up from the file on her desk, and sees Mulder beginning to pace excitedly around the office.

Mulder and Scully exchange moments, memories and-- yes-- haunted hotel ghost stories through the years.

@xxsksxxx/xxSKSxx's Shadows and Lights (Ao3) The sun hangs low in the late afternoon sky, casting long shadows through the dense canopy of trees. A gentle breeze rustles the leaves, sending a shiver down Mulder's spine. He tightens the collar of his coat, glancing at Scully, who stands beside him, her expression focused and determined.

The abandoned cabin looms before them, its weathered walls and broken windows giving it an ominous appearance.

S5 Mulder and Scully unsuccessfully investigate a ghost case... or do they?

@writingwell/RocketMan's Ancient Corridors "Mulder?"

"I can't believe I never even thought about it. . ."

"Mulder-"

"Lizzie Borden." He could just see her frown wrinkling her forehead, her mind whirling to take the jumps that he was.

"No. Mulder, that was over a hundred years ago."

Post-All Souls Scully becomes entangled in a ghost case while memories of her late father rise from her past.

the_eternal_optimist/@oohnotvery's Unheard Of Someone had lived here recently and it was not a group of witches. 

Post-FTF Scully and her injured partner are trapped in a house in the woods, surrounded by vengeful townspeople.

@virtie333/Virtie333's Home By the Sea "Come on, Scully," he was telling her, his head close to hers over the top of the small table. "It'll be fun. Have you even been to a haunted house? I mean, a real haunted house."

Mulder, Scully, Diana Fowley, and Detective Kresge investigate a haunted house.

@agentwhalesong's (Ao3) Tell Him “She, not it. The spirit in this house is a woman, from what has been reported. Her name was Francis and she was walled alive by her own father, who couldn’t accept the fact that she was pregnant out of wedlock.”

“And no one saw it happening?”

“Apparently, the next-door neighbor heard muffled cries for help, but ignored them because he couldn’t make out where the noise was coming from. They only found her bones years later, reminding the neighbor of that very specific episode and making him wonder if he could have saved her.”

Scully shivered, but there was no wind this time.

Post-HTGSC Mulder and Scully visit another haunted house.

TessMooreXF's Stay Thrifty "Scully, c'mon." He gently turned her over, cradling her head in his lap. He could see the obscene swelling around her arm and wrist. She'd no doubt broken it this time. She moaned and sighed in his arms. "We've got to get out of here, Partner."

"Mmmm... Mulder. He attacked me." 

Scully, injured from a Kersh assignment, stumbles upon a haunted motel.

@leiascully's (Ao3)

Fic: Endeavors Too Small Of Desires  "There's a haunted wood in West Virginia that's very scenic this time of year," he says.

"Haunted?"

"The hotel has a hot tub," he says. "And the hike up to the site is gorgeous."

There is a long moment of silence. He hums The Eagles under his breath.

"Pick me up in half an hour," she says and hangs up.

One Son-The Unnatural Mulder and Scully "investigate" a (supposedly) haunted wood while drawing back together.

Would you write a mini fic that has only dialogue? “Oh, so the cabin is haunted now?”

“The man who rented it to me may have implied it was haunted, but it’s possible he was just trying to give me some strategies to get you to cuddle up in front of the fire.”

“He’s lucky I haven’t been keeping up with my kickboxing.”

Mulder and Scully banter over a (hypothetical) haunted cabin.

OctoberFicFest Day 6: The Fair “Can’t you hear it?” he said, and suddenly, she could, her mind untangling layers of background noise: traffic, crickets, frogs, cicadas, and beneath it all, the Pied Piper lilt of carnival music, half-heard like the fair itself was balanced between worlds.  She’d read stories like this when she was younger.  Some barrier between mundane and magic thinned and a fair appeared, replete with wonderous prizes and the kind of people one would never see again.  

Mulder takes Scully to the fair.

@danascullysjournal/Paper_hearts_and_homemade_arts's If You Will Let Me (Ao3) But that couldn’t be his fate- not yet.  Not while the possibility of finding Scully was even remotely plausible.  Every second was closer to something terrible for her, he knew.  Something meant to break her and fold her into the writhing mass of darkness.  He could feel time ripping away from him.  The memory of Padgett choking her on the bed, taking every shred of her dignity, was carved into his subconscious.  The gloating visage of that man haunted Mulder.  Taunting him inside his head. 

That hadn’t been real. 

Post-Milagro Mulder and Scully are tortured by old forces.

Keleka's Gray Ghosts He takes a deep breath and lets it out slowly. "I don't know, Scully, but it seems like a good place to start. Besides that, the key is missing. Maybe someone has been using the room for some reason and that has--"

"Reawakened the spirits?" I say, finishing his sentence.

He shows me that goofy grin again and I can't help but smile myself. Okay, he's right. It is a place to start, if nothing else.

Post-Amor Fati Mulder, Scully, and TLG investigate a haunted military base.

@atths--twice/ATTHS_TWICE's (FFN) Just Beyond the Edge (Ao3) “You’re saying you think the forest is haunted?” Mulder asked Cassie. 

“I… I wouldn’t say haunted, but…” She looked at the other people around her and they nodded. “There is something to it.” 

“But it’s been searched,” Scully stated and Mulder turned his head to look at her. “Have you not all been involved in the search?” 

“Yes, we have. It’s just… have you been out there? Have you seen the forest?” 

“I have,” Scully said with a nod. 

“And you didn’t feel anything?” 

S7 Mulder and Scully investigate the Tali Keno.

MystPhile's

Bump in the Night (mulderscreek) Scully shrugged. "Well, we got out alive. And for your birthday, I had to think of something you'd like to do. So I checked into your haunted house file and selected this one because it was located nearby." She flashed her light around, like a realtor showing off a highly desirable property. "Does it have enough atmosphere to satisfy your . . . desires?"

Mulder and Scully and a spirit who must witness an act of love to be free.

2008 01 - 04 Combined (1/3), 2008 01 - 04 Combined (2/3), and 2008 01 - 04 Combined (3/3) She knew that Mulder, traumatized by the early loss of Samantha, was still sensitive. The Glass Menagerie, which ends with Tom abandoning his family to save himself, was bound to resonate unpleasantly for Mulder. Especially since Amanda, Tom's mother, tried so hard to foist the responsibility for his sister's well-being onto Tom. Shades of the old Mulder Guilt.

Poor, torn Tom had run from the unfair burden, only to be haunted by thoughts of Laura's need, and his own guilt. Laura's candles, by the end of the play, turn into his glowing, burning perpetual guilt, impossible to escape from or forget, even amidst the flames of war. His memories, his misery at failing his sister, were just too close to Mulder's feelings for Scully's comfort. Always find out what play you're seeing, she told herself. Life Lesson #382.

AU-- After a long separation and reunion, Mulder and Scully give an earnest shot at a relationship (while unwittingly stumbling upon a haunted seaside cottage.)

Erin M. Blair, XSketch, Pattie, Mae'chii''s Saw, Sanders and Spectres To her complete surprise and with a hundred pounds of guilt in her head, Scully had managed to have a long sleep. She had fallen asleep in the livingroom waiting for the hospital to call.

Post-Closure Mulder and Scully believe his late mother is trying to warn them.

Cornerofmadness's Clowning Around “Mulder, what have you gotten me into?” Scully stared at the clown painting above her bed in horror.

Mulder picks a motel adjacent to a cemetery.

@ladymeggs/LadyMeg's Remember Promises (Ao3) “We both know my aim is far better than yours. But don’t get your hopes up, I’m not going to be wooing you with a fluffy pink bear today, Mulder. Sorry to shatter your dreams.” 

Mulder and Scully are scared in a haunted house (but it at least kicks them into an acknowledgment of their feelings.)

@starbuck09256/Starbuck09256's Trick or treat? “Mulder, this doesn’t look structurally sound, at all” but his back is facing me and he turns and makes that face the one that dares me to back down and I can’t I can’t not go after him, not follow him.

Mulder and Scully, now a couple, visit a "haunted" house.

Analise's (xphilefic) Haunted House "Apparently Mrs. Hallery has lived in these parts for years. Her husband has died recently and she is trying to determine if she wants to sell the house or not. Mr. Kride was not very enlightening about much else. All he was clear on was that this house is haunted and that the 'dark spirit' that walks the halls at night is dangerous. He thinks we should leave as soon as possible."

"And did you tell him that we weren't planning on making this our vacation hideaway?" she asked, her voice soft with sleep and humor, her eyes closed.

Mulder and Scully's stay-over at a haunted house takes a turn.

Shoshana's Jerome I closed my eyes one more time and when I opened them she was gone. I suppose I should have believed. However, the power of suggestion is so strong, and I was so relaxed and happy before I went to bed, that I still doubted whether she had appeared to me or not.

A night at a ghost motel (and a proposal.)

AUs

BarbaraWar's The Ghosts Whose Christmas Was Stolen "How bad is it?" "Yeah." She grimaced. "I think you may have pierced my stomach, Mulder." He winced at the wording. "What can I do to help? Is it serious?" "If you did puncture it I have maybe 15 minutes before I die of either blood loss or poisoning from my stomach acids. You need to get help Mulder, fast." Her pallor was increasing, her breath becoming more labored.

How The Ghosts Stole Christmas ends very differently.

Philiater's Night House For some reason, I felt I knew the house and stopped my car in front along the circular drive.

Scully buys a haunted house... or she believes.

@dreamingofscully’s (Ao3) Surely, to the sea (Ao3) “A haunting, maybe? A spirit focused upon him or the house? It might explain the electrical problems, the radio interference. How worn down he is from being tormented in his sleep… but he never reported any strange noises or objects being displaced. No temperature changes. And he hasn’t reported the feeling of a presence. I don’t think you’d go in that— what?”

“Scully,” Mulder was staring at her with a dazed expression, a smile spreading on his face. “I don’t know how it’s possible but I just fell in love with you all over again.”

“That’s not very helpful,” she said, though her chest tightened at his words. 

AU-- Mulder and Scully, married paranormal investigators, are called to a house engorged with evil.

Deadcanons's X-Tropy Reyes thought for a moment. “Maybe a persistent ghost can come back after being sent away. And maybe that causes the rules to change.”

            Scully snorted. “It’s science fiction, Monica. I was malnourished, exhausted... Mulder might have haunted the house in Tennessee, but what happened last Christmas was a delusion. It has to be.” Her eyes dropped to the candle between them and stayed there.

            There was a short silence. Reyes tapped Doggett’s cane on the floor. “I’d like to hold a silent supper for him. Do you know what that is, Dana?”

An immortal Scully disbelieves, at first, that her late partner is reaching beyond the grave, despite the decades, to keep her new, patchwork family safe (from dark magic and malevolent intentions.)

BONUS

memories_child's (LJ) Three Times Mulder Was Afraid of The Dark And One Time He Wasn't There are two kinds of things that go bump in the night. He learned this in school today, sitting on the top of the monkey bars with Billy and Walt. There are two kinds of things that go bump in the night. The good things, like Mom checking the latches on the windows downstairs before turning out the lights and climbing the stairs, like Sam stubbing her toe on the doorjamb before climbing into his bed and asking for a story, like Santa's reindeer bumping the sleigh onto the snow-covered roof on Christmas Eve. And the are the bad things, like the bogeyman hiding behind the closet door and making it creak, like the monster under the bed that rustles and bangs when he's just about to drop off to sleep, like the vampire that taps on his window pane when it's dark and the wind is whistling outside.

He laughed it off then, when the sun was shining and the yard echoed with the yells of kids dressed as ghosts and ghouls.

Mulder is haunted by (metaphorical) ghosts.

Viridian5's Haunted "I'm fine. How long was I in orbit?"

"Just a few minutes."

From the look on her face, Mulder guessed that his own had revealed more of the emotions involved with that memory than he would have wanted her to see. He treasured her for letting him decide whether to bring it up or not.

"I just saw a few ghosts of my own, Scully." The past colored the present... Then it fit. "I think Aaron may be haunting his cousin, instead of this site."

Mulder is transported back to a dark time in his life.

CONCLUSION

Hope those are what you're looking for!

@suitablyaggrieved/ScullyLovesQueequeg's Fictober Day 10

“Sir, with all due respect… why can’t I have Scully back?”

“We’ve gone over this, Agent Mulder. We’re a little short on forensic pathologists. You’ll have Agent Scully back in no time. Now do you want to tell me why I’m getting several complaints that you’re making things down there a hostile environment?”

Post Little Green Men Mulder is alone.

Snits's Here, Now

"He's resting his ankle," Scully lied smoothly. A woman on her left, Laura, giggled suddenly, leaning into the conversation. "I saw him, hopping about earlier," she said wickedly, "how'd he do it?"

"Chasing ghosts," Jacobs supplied, provoking laughter. "Ruh-roh, Scully," a man across the table mimicked Scooby-Doo. "Nah, he probably just fell after the aliens let him off the space ship," another woman sniggered, reaching for the wine bottle. "Seriously, Scully, any time you want to be out of that nuthouse, you just mention it," the man beside Jacobs said solemnly, as though he were the voice of reason in the group.

Scully finally understands why Mulder never goes to FBI parties.

Philiater's The Stronger Monster

The strongest, that's what Mulder had said; the monster had taken the strongest of them.

For a moment that comment had dug at her a little bit; a part of her had automatically protested that *she* was strong. But she was a fish out of water in a deep forest.

Detour Scully is willing to be a monster for Mulder.

@starwalker42's (Ao3)

febuwhump day 23: "you'll have to go through me"

As the creature approaches him, creeping forward so slowly it’s almost like it’s biding its time, almost as if it’s enjoying toying with him, Mulder wonders how long it might take to bleed out from a bite wound. Maybe the pain will be strong enough that he won’t make it that long, anyway – maybe he’ll pass out before it gets to that point. Maybe those jaws will tear right through him, and he won’t feel anything but a flash of pain and the sensation of his body being ripped apart.

Bang! A cloud of dirt flies up into the wolf’s face, and it turns away, whining in surprise. After a moment of confusion, Mulder realises someone’s fired a gun.

Scully stares down a wolf.

Anonymous's (mulderscreek, annex-files) Silence, Sea and Sky

Dana Scully watched her partner closely but his face betrayed no emotion. If she didn't know him so well she wouldn't have noticed the tiny tremble of his hands, the dull look in his usually expressive eyes.

Mulder (and Scully) is invited onto a case where he has to work alongside an old VCU foe.

@o6666666's (Ao3) Phoebe takes a job at the fbi

“Mulder is incredibly passionate.”

“He’s myopic. Small-minded for anything that’s ever shown him tenderness.”

“I think he’s a genius.”

“Do you show him tenderness, Agent Scully?”

With that, Scully shoves her chair back from the table.

AU-- Phoebe Green is back, as an FBI agent.

@wendelah/wendelah1/avesuvianface’s (Gossamer, Live Journal) When light is put away

While Mulder stepped into his trousers, she walked over to the window and peered out through the shattered glass. "There's no sign of it—him—anywhere."

Mulder nodded. Whatever he was, man or monster, Pincus moved fast. He pulled a T-shirt over his head.

"This time—" Her voice was firm. "—I'm not leaving here without you."

Folie a Deux Mulder is rescued by one Dana Scully.

Dawn’s (Ao3, Gossamer) Broken (Ao3) and Restored

I turn around to face the now-thoroughly-irritated officer. "Agent Mulder has been through quite an ordeal tonight and is feeling under the weather. I'm taking him back to the motel now. We'll come down to the station tomorrow and you can finish asking your questions."

The kid can't be more than twenty-five, baby-faced and lacks the self-assurance of Detective Webster. Still, he actually scowls and opens his mouth to argue with me until I flash him what Mulder refers to as "The Look."

Folie a Deux Scully and Mulder's thoughts after the bug flees and the cops show up.

Wylfcynne's Imagine

"You aren't getting free until we have a clear MRI," she said calmly.

Mulder exploded in rage, screaming, cursing, struggling violently. On the status monitor, everything began to escalate. Three Project doctors came running in, alerted by the system alarms, and stopped, awed at the violence they were witnessing.

Post S.R. 819 Mulder and Scully are captured while on a Kersh detail; and Scully must break out, somehow sound the alarm, and purge Mulder from a black oil invasion.

@baronessblixen's (Ao3) imagine some other agents playing a trick on Mulder

"I was getting coffee for us and then this one guy, Agent Peters, he said I didn't need to bother because, because," he stops, panic slipping back into his voice. Scully squeezes his hand to let him know she's here. "Because you were in a car accident and that... that you were... didn't look good." Tears fall from his eyes as he looks up at her. The way his bottom lip quivers breaks her heart.

Mulder rushes down to the basement, distraught.

Pattie's They Call Him AGENT Mulder

"I guess you're not too proud of me today, Scully. Sorry I reacted the way I did."

"Don't be sorry," I told him, as we got into the car. "He had it coming. It was a rotten thing for him to do to you."

S6 Mulder and the various methods of aggravation fellow FBI agents use.

LuminousPie's

Five Times Mulder Got Injured and One Time Scully Did

She looked up and frowned, debating whether to answer. She much preferred it when Diana didn’t speak. “I was just thinking about how many times Mulder has been in the hospital in the last 5 or so years.” She didn’t allude to her own ailments. She suspected Diana already knew.

Diana put down her magazine and crossed her arms, “Is it a lot?”

“I’ve lost count.”

“Mulder was never injured when I was with him.”

Various Mulder injuries through the years.

What Goes Up Must Come Down.

She whispers softly in his ear as she assesses him, “It's going to be okay Mulder, I’m right here.” She almost calls him ‘sweetheart’ but it’s not just Diana that stops her, it's the fact she also has to be a doctor now.

Mulder and Scully try to hide their secret relationship from Diana while all three are trapped in a malfunctioning elevator.

@seek-its-opposite​ (Ao3) nothing to hide (Ao3)

"Your irresponsible theories nearly got my officer killed, Agent Mulder.” The sergeant gestures at the crack house, the door splintered on the floor. “To say nothing of how my department looks on camera for taking you seriously.”

“But you did take him seriously.” Agent Scully’s voice sharpens to a stiletto point. Her partner absorbs chaos; she refracts it.

Post X-Cops Scully is incensed when the local cops lay blame at her partner's feet.

ScullyLikesScience's He is the Master of His Fate, She is the Captain of Her Soul

Mulder and Scully sat in their rental car in the parking lot of the Sheriff’s department. She sat, shaking her head. What a waste of a perfectly good weekend. He cleared his throat. “Okay, so he was actually crazy. For real crazy. Do you think the Phoenix bureau called me as a joke?”

Scully sighed, clicked one of the overhead lights, and opened the file on her lap.

Spanning from Amor Fati to IWTB, this series tracks the growth Mulder and Scully experience as they come into their own.

@neednottoneed/neednot's Unnamed

What she can't get over is the staring.

Mulder keeps tapping his fingers on the table. They sit across from each other, her foot occasionally brushing his, and it really does feel like everyone in the building is watching them.

Post all things Scully decides to hold Mulder's hand at the FBI.

@brenayla's (Ao3) midnight gold and moon shadows

Scully brushes past the group to get to the trash can, where she tosses a paper takeout coffee cup.

Agent Chang nods at her in greeting. “Agent Mulder,” he says with all the confidence of a recent Academy grad.

The being before him gives a wary look.

“It’s Scully, actually.” Not cold but certainly not friendly either.

Mulder and Scully, cryptids.

@mldrgrl's (Ao3) Tumblr drabble prompts of various shades of MSR

She heard laughter as she approached the door to the office. A cluster of agents surrounded Mulder’s desk with handfuls of files, laughing together. One of them was wearing a hat that was clearly not his own. Scully bristled. Her heels struck the ground with angry blows as she strode across the room.

“Take it off,” she said, holding her hand out to the agent with a withering glare.

S8 Scully will not stand for Mulder mockery in his absence.

Gina Rain/gina rain's Circular File

They were all assembled around the conference table. Creative bookkeeping couldn't solve some of the problems that appeared in the past year's budget. Explanations had to be given. Even Agent Scully had to attend to justify costs that were incurred during her time with the X-file division. She entered the conference room and some people stopped talking and looked up at her and then, with small smiles or sidelong glances, resumed their rapt attention of the closed files in front of them.

But Agent Scully did not sit down.

AU-- S9 Scully is having a hard time letting the FBI go (or, as she realizes, go without speaking her mind.)

@slippinmickeys/SlippinMickeys/Slippin' Mickeys's Three Part Harmony (Ao3)

“ --der ,” he heard, in what was unmistakably Scully’s voice. But he didn’t hear her voice with his ears, but rather in his head, where the buzzing was emanating. It was remarkably similar to when he could hear others’ thoughts, pushed into what bordered on madness by an alien craft. But this didn’t feel like lunacy; it was warm and euphoric. 

“ Mulder, ” he heard again in Scully’s voice, this time more clear, the buzzing lessening. “ Is that you? ” 

AU-- Mulder and Scully save their son while on the run; and the three of them continue perpetually forward with the FBI on their heels.
