Do you believe in ghosts?

[omgpwn666]

I think I'm ruining your guys' fun here, though, so I'll quietly leave this topic...

I'm sorry, was just saying some stuff to be funny, not trying to give you the wrong impression that I don't want you here. =/

I think my house is haunted. Had a dream once when we first moved in while napping on the couch. I dreamt that I was watching a paranormal show about ghosts and my house was featured in it. In the show they showed newspaper articles about 2 young girls that were slain back in the 1920's. After that dream I kept hearing noises,laughter and running upstairs when no one was up there. Did some research at the loacl library and found out that this actually actually happend in my 112 year old house. I don't think we will ever know for sure what happens after death. I do believe however that as humans some of us can perceive things better than others. Everything is connected.

I already know it's a cool story bro so don't even bother.

I've heard of a couple of encounters from people i know well and wouldn't make these stories up, but whether it was a ghost or their imigination who knows?

Until i experience something myself i'll say no, i don't believe in ghosts.

 

[Alex221]

i've had ghosts mess with my posessions before plus ive heard unexplained noises and things falling inside my house at around 3:00 am so yeah they're real

I also hear a lot of unexpected noises if i'm waking around the said time. I don't believe it's ghost though. I believe that its the doings of our mind because we're expecting to hear things that aren't there?

nah,its probably a ghost lol

Topic title scares the shit out of me.

My parents bought me this halloween disc when I was a kid and the last track was the story of Ichabod Crane. Before the story started, the narrator gave off some random spiel to set the mood. At one point, the background noise quiets down and he says "Do you...believe...in ghosts?" in the most chilling tone.

That year, I asked if I could light the fireplace. My parents couldn't find the disc after that.

My mother believes in 'em, so by extension, I'm at the very least accepting that there could possibly be such [unknown/unexplained] entities that exist amongst our populous existence.

I never did mind all that talk, though.

Of course, if you've been in so many hospitals that I've been to through the years... Let's just say it does get uneasy.

 

[smile72]

I don't think they exist, otherwise the South would be haunted by the ghosts of slaves.

I don't believe in ghost as ectoplasm, but I guess "spirit" entities exist.
My sister can hear them, they said her things she can't possibly know (mostly about other peoples, saying that they are their relatives), and after checking the veracity it was always true.
Though, she really doesn't like when "they" (there are many) come to her as they are bugging her, her body, preventing her to sleep, etc.
Communication happens mostly (only?) in my house.
But it's in a one way only, it bother her and she don't want to communicate. It's something she doesn't want and would preferably stop being able to sense.

There's also (in rare case) objects falling by themselves in other rooms.

She also can feel when someone died in a house she never visited before and can describe who it was. (also, verifiable later).




Then, can it be ghost?
Can it be that she has schizophrenia?
Can it be just her which has developed senses that other people don't have, which are NOT ghost, but maybe something else ... parallel universe, etc.?
Can it be her who is creating things, affecting the world, other people's past and mind?

Call it whatever you like.
It cost her her job/studies because she talked about someone's past (in private with that person). That person reported my sister to the teachers and got her fired (because it was true and they decided that she can't practice that job while being a medium).

Its the booga-gravity.

 

[Cyan]

Of course, it can't "fall up", thanks to gravity it can only "fall down"
but ok, I'm inclined to believe it's only gravity, and object slightly slipping every day, millimeter by millimeter, and one day they are falling.
It's just feels strange when it happens.

It last happened 15 days ago, when I played The Last Story, exploring the Hunted house.
Just a coincidence due to gravity, but it was even more frightening caused by the game I was playing at that time, and the fact I was alone at home, by night. ahaha!

 

[BlueStar]

There is no solid proof that they exist.
There is no solid proof that they don't exist.

So, I'm on the fence for this one.

There is no solid proof I am Jesus, there is no solid proof I am not Jesus. Are you on the fence about that?

There is no solid proof that there is an enormous invisible pink teapot orbiting the earth. But then there is no solid proof that there is not. Are you on the fence about that?

 

[Cyan]

There's no testimony (not sure it's the good word) about "enormous invisible pink teapot orbiting the earth", but there's a lot of people saying they saw/talked/beleived in ghosts or spirit, life after life, another world, etc., regardless of their location in the world or their religious belief or era they lived.

So I would more likely take what is actually a scientific fact as wrong for a spiritual world than for flying teapot, dragons, faeries or unicorns.
(Sorry, not the best sentence I wrote, I didn't find the correct way to tell what I wanted).

Everyone thought sun was orbiting earth, earth was plane, no other planets existed in our solar system, nothing could be smaller than atoms, etc. that was facts until scientifically proven wrong. it's just that scientist don't have all the required knowledge for everything yet.
People should be capable to make the difference between un-proven facts and absurd facts.

 

[ComeTurismO]

I only have innocent ghosts in my house, they just roam around my room, i hear the footsteps. I once captured it on Moonshell

 

[JoostinOnline]

I know this isn't really relevant, but I just remembered something that made me laugh and I have to share it. I don't know how many of you played Super Mario 64, but the ghosts in that game used to terrify me!

Hmm, Super Mario 64 you say?

Nope, doesn't ring any bells, sorry.

As for believing in ghosts, I don't know, personally I don't believe in them though.
What I do believe is that there's more things on our earth for humans to discover, things we can't even imagine, just like how people years ago didn't know about atoms, electricity, radiowaves etc. there's still a lot of discovery's needed to be made in quantum physics for example.

So yes, there's a possibility for things we yet can't see to exist, a type of matter that doesn't emit any readable form of energy.
Maybe ghost are Imprints on the space time continuum, or maybe they're fragments of other beings living in some sort of parallel universe?

 

[celcodioc]

There are a lot of unexplainable things in the universe. Perhaps I have seen a ghost when I was about five years old, perhaps not. For now, though, I don't believe in them.

 

[Jax]

Ghosts, no.

Aliens, yes!

 

[stylow]

I think they exist also i think there are two kinds of ghosts, evil ones and good ones.

 

[spotanjo3]

I can't say no or yes either way because I never saw any ghosts in my life. To be hones with you, there is nothing to believe it or not unless you know what you saw with your own eyes and live with the rest of your life knowing what you saw. That's simple.

Many people would say yes that they believe in ghosts even thought they NEVER NEVER in their life saw any ghosts. Whats the pointing of saying yes when you never saw any ghosts ? It doesnt make any sense. So, thats the reason why I can't say yes or no at all.

EDIT: Believing in Spirituality ? From what I understanding, yes.

 

[mudassirul]

there were times when i woke at like 5 in the morning feeling an eerie presence and my body wouldn't move except my neck and eyes, and fuck i saw something fully cloaked in black, once i actually saw its eye and it was like my mind zoomed into it coz it was like in my head. I found out about a condition called sleep paralysis and thats what i bellieve it was, a darn scary hallucination!
