rubmifer Posted July 23, 2004 #1 Share Posted July 23, 2004 Can ghosts just appear in your houses? I've been wondering. Or does it needs to be an old house. And how can you prevend ghosts from 'visisting' you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snuffypuffer Posted July 23, 2004 #2 Share Posted July 23, 2004 It depends, maybe you should put an ad in the paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falco Rex Posted July 23, 2004 #3 Share Posted July 23, 2004 The best way to keep ghosts from visiting you is to engage in rational thought. Nothing drives Ghosts away like liberal doses of logic and skepticism.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkAnubis Posted July 23, 2004 #4 Share Posted July 23, 2004 From what i've heard it can be basically anywhere....and personally if i saw a ghost, i'd question it...logic is always good....i wanna see a ghost on jeopardy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cufflink Posted July 23, 2004 #5 Share Posted July 23, 2004 It depends, maybe you should put an ad in the paper. In all seriousness, Rubmifer, the age of the house doesn't matter. Newly built houses are often built over land with a history. And sometimes ghosts are not what we traditionally think of as the standard 'haunted house' type, but could be doppelgangers, vardogers, or other ghosts not tied to a location. As for stopping ghosts from showing up, your guess is as good as mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing drives Ghosts away like liberal doses of logic and skepticism.. so you are saying, when you do not fear them, they won't come? hmm, i'll take that in mind, because when I saw for the first time ghost pics, I was scared in hell in my bed. But now I always think about something else, like for now the tour de france. is this a good way too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurnSide Posted July 23, 2004 #7 Share Posted July 23, 2004 he's saying if you don't make up ghosts in your head they wont scare you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairie Posted July 23, 2004 #8 Share Posted July 23, 2004 On the contrary as far as I'm concerned, in my experience ghosts are most likely to show up when you least expect it. On the plus side, this means you can consider the experience more objectively, the more you freak out about ghosts, the less likely you'll see a real one... but you may hallucinate in fear so is probably best to start taking tranqs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Shaper Posted July 23, 2004 #9 Share Posted July 23, 2004 I think it is possible for a house to contain ghosts that has no previous history of past hauntings & such, simply because of the land that it's on as Cufflink stated. I'm not exactly sure how you can 'avoid' ghosts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haunted-one61 Posted July 23, 2004 #10 Share Posted July 23, 2004 It's been my experience that you can't prevent them. I don't think where you are or how old the house even matters. Maybe the're just attracted to the living, maybe they're just attracted to certain people, and maybe not everyone can see them. If they are around, they are. If not, they aren't. I don't fear them and am a rational person, but I think if the things are determined to hang out with you, they won't leave unless they decide they're ready to.

Lonecat Posted July 24, 2004 #14 Share Posted July 24, 2004 " nothing drives ghosts away like logic and skepticism" is not logical. According to your skeptical way of thinking there are no ghosts to drive away in the first place so, how can you apply "logic" to them? You sound like a "professional skeptic" or, as they are now known to be : a "debunker", and debunkers refuse to accept hard evidence. They apply false logic to whatever they they DON'T WANT to believe. I wish you the good fortune to encounter your first, real ghost...soon. As for the other comment, made above about getting rid of ghosts, I'd far prefer to see a ghost than have to watch the Tour de France.

Falco Rex Posted July 24, 2004 #16 Share Posted July 24, 2004 (edited) Well Lonecat that was a horrendously b****y post to no real purpose. You seem to know a lot about me for someone who's never spoken to me. Don't assume you know what I believe by reading the contents of a post or two.. As for the rest. Debunker no. Skeptic, yes. Am I supposed to buy into every story and account I hear just because I believe one or two may be genuine? Well, that's just silly. Most paranormal accounts turn out to be hoaxes os misidentifications of natural things or events. Does it not seem rational then to question every one of them? And as for my comment on this thread even if I go along with the slack-jawed "Bleever" point of view it is still logical. Many people wil tell you that ghosts feed on your state of mind or your "openess" to spiritual phenomenon in regards to when and how they manifest. So a mind of Skepticism, filled with the cold light of reason and science would not be receptive; and hence wouldn't see them. A ghost couldn't "Find" you; you see? You might want to study up on both points of view before you call me on something next time.. Edited July 24, 2004 by Falco Rex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
