Do you believe in ghosts? Weird question, but do you?

Question

rosesofsarahhhh · Accepted Answer

Me and my family , and friends and those I know saw some in separate occasions , so yeah. I have a friend in previous school, and a sister, who has sixth sense. In my region of the world (maritime southeast asia), it's common to have seen ghosts, or at least has someone in the family that can. This phenomenon has the interest of British researchers (psychiatrists and psychologist), - they came up with the conclusion that we do so because we are so spiritual as a people, so we tend to see most things as spiritual - although they can't thoroughly explain the process scientifically.
.
But I wouldn't say that I saw that ghost because I believe in spirituality. It's because... well... I saw it. Same with most people here who see it.

Fun fact : my country is the world's capital of mass hysteria. In fact I had a friend in old high school who had hysteria/was possessed, her voice was changed to a guy's voice screaming and shouting. And more out-of-world experience in that school. This can be a common event in my country's schools, but in a year, probably at least one hysteria case for a boarding school, on average. But in other schools it can be much more.

The British researchers concluded that mass hysteria in my country is mostly in rural area because rural folks are more superstitious, but even in city, it can happen as frequent too.

Yes they are real and I have seen them.

KostasKouvalis · Answer

I would say so, yes. Not as much as I did when I was younger, but I've certainly had encounters with things that were not of this earth. I'm convinced the museum I used to work at was haunted, 'cuz I was in there with my family as a kid once and a ghost threw a picture off the wall, in front of the tour guide. And it was freakin' Day of the Dead! Then when I went to work in there a few years ago, my coworkers just casually mentioned the spirits that keep moving stuff in the basement. So they knew about them. There was also a doll behind a locked glass window that was always tilting. I had the keys to all the show cases, and I decided to adjust the doll one time and something growled at me. I never messed with anything else after that, and I HATED working in there by myself. That place gave me the creeps. I never left the front desk unless I absolutely HAD to.

I'm also convinced there's a dead maintenance guy haunting the roof of one of my kiosks at work. I decided to half-jokingly mention it to one of my co-workers, then she confessed to hearing stuff too. We eventually started mentioning it to our other co-workers, and eventually every single one of them who worked in that kiosk admitted to hearing footsteps on the roof. So there is definitely something there.

I've had some other weird stuff happened in other places too, including at home, so I'm convinced that shit's real.

TheNameIsRob · Answer

I do believe in them because I have seen one and heard others. In my house I have walked across the living room with a floor that squeaks a little with each step only to hear it squeak again as if someone was walking five feet behind me.

A friend stayed the night once and in the middle of the night she woke up to the cats playing with a toy in the hallway. She would hear the toy bounce down the hallway and the cats run after it. Since it was keeping her awake she was going to get the toy and put it up. Only thing is as she was getting up she heard a girls voice say “go get it” as the toy once again bounced down the hallway.

I have seen what looks like something I can only describe as a little cloud or puff of smoke leave the room as I walk into it. I have also had things like one set of blinds swaying back and forth with no windows open or fans on and the other three sets of blinds right next to them not move at all. I had a friend there and we both sat there thinking wtf is doing that? I grabbed the blinds by the edge and it kept moving for a minute and then just stopped like someone let go of it.

I have also seen someone pass by out of the corner of my eye while watching tv.

Chazmatazz269 · Answer

I describe myself as a skeptical believer.
I definitely believe and i’ve had personal experiences that brought to my beliefs. However, there are believers who’ve never found “evidence” unconvincing. They’ve never questioned anything. They make the rest of us look bad by association. Ha!
I’m perfectly capable of applying critical thinking to my own experiences and any evidence placed before me. There’s not much convincing evidence widely available, so unquestioned skepticism is somewhat understandable. It’s not a sign of a scientific mind though, contrary to popular belief.

TheorionMage · Answer

ABSOLUTELY.  At age twelve, within a month after my parents relocated to their OWN first home, around 2am I happened to awaken in my second story bedroom on a floor shared with my parent's and maternal grandparent's bedrooms... I met my Uncle Bobby who'd passed from illness in his teens LONG before my parents even married.  I saw his Spirit exit my parent's bedroom, pass down the hallway and into his parent's bedroom. I'd gotten the feeling he just wanted them to know, that HE knew where they were living now... and that he still watched over them. I sensed no malice ~

Lynnfriend · Answer

Yes. I never used to and was very sceptical about things you can't see. However a couple of years ago I rented this house up in the mountains in the middle of nowhere and I am pretty sure there were ghosts there. The house was always really cold at night you could see your breath most of the time. Every night when I went to bed everything was clean and put away cub boards draws clean closed but when I would wake up there was stuff over the place and all the cub boards and draws were open. This was every night. My 2 cats would act like they were spoked and want to sleep with me. So I let them and they were content. But sometimes they would sit by the door like they could hear something but if I opened the door so they could go out they wouldn't. I believe to this day there was something there.

sage2021 · Answer

I believe in spirits. I have had some physically strange things happen in my apartment that could only be explained by a spirit, because I was sitting across the room in my chair.

Physically - I mean nothing sexual. I'm talking about objects moving around.

ArtemisSilver · Answer

I've seen and experienced things for which there are no plausible scientific explanations apparent.

I don't know about ghosts specifically, but there is definitely activity on a spiritual plain that we only get small glimpses into.

Sometimes it's as simple as going somewhere and noticing an unexplained and out of place smell, or a sense that a place is heavy, foreboding or dangerous when there's no reasoning out a valid cause.

Sometimes people have shockingly accurate precognitions, or encounters with inexplicable entities, some in human guise others not.

All I can say is that I've seen a few odd things in my travels, and always when sober and in command of my faculties.

D_Bone_Steak · Answer

I've had some weird shit happen... if it gets too intense, spray salt water around the house. I don't mind trippy shit happening when we're just chilling watching television or something, but if it starts fucking with my sleep... I will figure out how to rape a beat a ghost until it doesn't want to be around us.

JennaWillow · Answer

I do, and I'm pretty sure there's one in my house lol

Mmmariaxc · Answer

Yes or something. We lived in a rented house for a while and the man who owned it would make killing jokes. Things would fly through the air and stuff that wasn’t plugged in would turn on it would open and close doors everyone that lived there experienced i never saw this ‘ghost’(I saw one once) but it sighed angrily near me I thought it was my husband but no one was there.

RavVid · Answer

I have never had a ghostly experience myself. An Aunt died and two cousins, another Aunt, my mother and my sister all experienced a visitation the same night and were calling each other like crazy the next day. The two cousins and my sister are pretty matter of fact so I believe them.

You can chalk me down as believing weird shit sometimes happens. Won't go more than that.

GoodGuyBreakingBad · Answer

Yes, I believe in ghost, my late Maternal Great Grandmother passed like 1975 and her ghost was inside the house, she left to one of her Sons (my late Great Uncle) well my Uncle told me stories about her ghost waking him and my late Great Aunt up wee hours of the morning.

Energy doesn’t die along with a body. It continues to exist. Does that energy hold onto the essence of life? I think it’s possible.

abc3643 · Answer

SakuraaaChaaan · Answer

Yeah. I used to think the idea of "souls" were stupid as shit and I'd make fun of anyone who thought otherwise then, but now I'm more open-minded to the "spiritual realm". Honestly, I've been looking into reincarnation and past lives here lately, and a lot of the stuff I've read was pretty convincing.

JosyJosy · Answer

Yep, I"ve seen things in my house that don't make sense. So I'm very much open to the idea.
