whistling2.gif Do you think ghosts are real? I'm a skeptic when it comes to ghost although I've had some weird experiences but I was probably hallucinating. So if you have any weird experiences, share them and that would be great! (I'm new to this site) sad.gif dontgetit.gif eyecrazy.gif abduct.gif

Welcome to the forum Dreamer wavey.gif

Yes, I believe that ghosts are real.both from my own experiences and from reading those of others. I think most members who have experienced something have already posted them here so please just go ahead and have a good read through the archives.
I'm sure I speak for everyone here when I say I'd love to hear your stories as well so don't be worried about sharing them with us.

Hello! After reading the stories and experinces here you might change your mind. I've always beleived in ghosts but coming here just strengthened my beliefs. I hope you like it here thumbsup.gif

Yes, Kreestar's suggestion is worth taking. The accounts in books by the better researchers/writers might go some way to convincing you. If you want a serious read which covers hallucination, try 'Seeing Ghosts' By Hilary Evans.

I've heard too many sober accounts of hauntings to be a complete skeptic.

There are just too many sightings in history to totally discount the existence of ghosts! wacko.gif

Oh yeah, ghosts are real. If you believe them then more power to you but if you don't you better start believing them. They are all around us. You can't see them but your body knows when they are there. Focus...

I do NOT believe in ghosts devil.gif , everything has a cause and an effect. I mean everything dies for example animals and plants die all the time. Do animals and plants come back as ghost? A big no way!!!

I believe in ghosts....but i dont believe every ghost story/picture i hear or see.

I have already posted a thread about one of my experiences that occured in the summer....i'd appreciate it if everyone had a look and told me what they think...thankyou...coz i'd prefer a rational explanation for this even though i know what happened wasnt rational or normal crying.gif

Hi DayDreamer original.gif

Do I think ghost are real? I'm open minded so yes and no grin2.gif, some stories can easily be explained away but others can't. As people have said there are too many stories out there, even if 99.9% aren't real there's still that 0.1%.

Do I believe in ghosts?

Hmmmmmm...... *scratches head* ...... lemme think ...........

Ok, I have had various experiences myself and have met too many intelligent, articulate, and down-to-earth people who claim that they have had an other-wordly experience to totally discount it.

However, I do believe that the vast majority of sightings/sounds/smells etc etc are caused by something as simple as either imagination, hysteria, TLE, gases, and EMF, and sub-frequency sound waves. I feel that very soon science will be able to explain 'ghosts'.......

But - I have no explaination for the many people who have interacted and spoken to 'ghosts', or other such strange phenomena that cant be covered by any of the above!

hi there

I have had experiences with 'ghosts.' However the more I research into the paranormal and science as a whole the more sceptical I become.
I do believe in Ghosts as in a recording from the past i.e Stone tape theory and electro- magnetic fields etc. As for the feelings and sensations a person experiences in a supposedly haunted location I would say that at least 70% of the time it is psychologiocal and scientific factors that are working with our brains to create these feelings etc.

I agree with you Hammy. There is something going on there, but I am not sure we know exactly what it is quite yet.

Not that I don't love a good ghost story mind you... grin2.gif
