I'm kinda in 2 minds about ghosts.
I'd like to believe they exist but I am very sceptical. My gut feeling tells me they're all fake. Every one of em.

Up untill I was about 7 or 8 (I can't remember exactly how old) I used to see a ghost in my room, so I'm firmly in the camp that they do exist. There have also been other (sensative) people who have come to my house and seen the same ghost, from what old portraties we have, we think it was my great-great-Grandma.

i know they exist (to me anyway)

Most recent 2 things i have had is my old house i shared with 3 mates was def haunted, without a doubt. My room door would open and i would hear little footsteps running accross the carpet. We all beleived that it was a little girl around 8-10 for some reason. Things would be moved, curtains would open and other weird things.
Was really scary at first cause when i was lying in bed i would hear her run across the floor, little patter of feet. We started calling her Samantha, like a real person. One night my housemate was in the house alone when he sat down to watch TV and eat some food, he put the ketchup by the side of the chair, leaned over to get something and when he leaned back the ketchup was all over the wall. We came home to find him in the kitchen near tears.
She got bad whenever my then gf and my housemates gf were over


Other time was when i woke up in the middle of the night to see a i little girl standing on my bed at the end with blonde hair, wearing a green and white tartan dress thing and white shirt. As i sat up she disappeared. I later found out that was the uniform for a primary school in that area (which closed down in the 40s) where i had just moved to.

So i most def beleive in them. I have had a few other things happen to me but those 2 are the most recent

I dont belive in ghosts etc because I have never seen anything unatural ever, i am not saying other people are lying with their stories, only that I have never seen one or been "contacted" in any form

Anyways that link witch was posted i also was very sceptic too. And lol when did Dogs start to haunt and become ghosts. Does that mean that other animals can become ghosts. Maybe one-celled organisms too. Imagine how many ghosts who would exist then :) I am sure 90 % of all the ghost pictures are fake. And some like those trees etc are just randomly looking like a ghost. If ghost exists i doubt they can be seen on camera and not IRL, like many people claim. What is the difference of a picture and IRL. Its just that the light/coulors of a location at a time is saved on a pice of paper.

Come on ghosts around the world, prove me wrong :)

Um, we have at least one animal (prob dog) ghost in my house. As for single celled organisms, I doubt that they can become ghosts, I personally believe it is all to do with whether the animal has a spirit or not and the size of the animal, and the brain copasity effects that. And don't forget, humans are animals as well, so if there can be human ghosts, surely other animals can have ghosts as well.

I agree with you that being able to be seen with cameras and not IRL is rubish, I don't think that they can be seen on Camera, as they use different levels of reality than the the light that camera detect.

i knew that part at the end would come eventually :)

The thing with the TV is interesting could just be bouncing back so much that it is picking up tv frequencies

Some of them are so bad its crazy some pics are just double exposure

Videos were creepy, regardless if there were fake or not, still creepy

Why do ghosts exist ?

People who have died violently ? Too early ? People who were wronged ? Past life regressionism ? Reincarnation ? Does it prove the existence of the human soul ? Does it prove life after death ? Mediums. The paranormal. Good v Evil ?

I firmly believe there is intelligent life out there in the universe other than on our planet. But I seem to have a problem accepting the existence of ghosts.

Does being a sceptic inherrently mean that your mind is closed and therefore you won't see one ? Or are ppl who believe they've seen ghosts particularly receptive of electromagnetic or other physical and explanable forces which represent themselves as human figures ?

Just opening up some questions for further discussion.

innteresting toughts. when speaking of ghosts, do we talk off a massive corpse just walking around or an spirit who dosnt have any mass. If it exists "ghosts" as of no mass at all we can asume they are not made of particles with mass.

In my eyes a zombie would be a person walking around without breathing or any other form of "aliveness", that could possibly exist in form of a body controlled by a computer or anything else just using the body as a machine, but then the living thing is not the body therfor the dead owner would not controll it at all.

The only sietificly explination i can think of about the "ghosts" must be som sort of memories inprinted in electromagnetic waves or the vacuum itself. like a shape or a memory of a being that is inprinted in something witch still can be observed, but we arnt talking about a living thing that can act or anything.

Therfor the ghosts/zombies people say they have observed dosnt nessicarly prove life after death, they just confirm the existence of living humans. I do not belive in any other ghosts then the Tahiti zombis witch were drugged people belived to be dead, working on plantations

And on the existence of life question i fully agree with you. I just cant belive that of the wastly amounts of solar systems we are the only on with life.

RE your willingness to believe that life exists elsewhere, and your sceptisism about ghosts and the paranormal...

Could that be because when we talk about Alien Life... we can apply real science to our discussions?

We KNOW how life is formed, we understand some things about the formation of the universe, and planets, we are aware of how matter interacts under the laws of physics etc...

but when talking about the paranormal.. what do we have? To my knowledge.. there is not one piece of reliable scientific fact to back up any theory on the existance of ghosts...

Is it simply a case of, in this day and age... we tend to put more faith in things we understand from a sound knowledge of the laws of nature and physics?

to put it simply...

Alien life has background in Science fact. And is plausable under what we know about the universe.

Ghosts... simply aren't...


In this current age, we are stating to uncover some of the mysteries behind the myths and legends that populated the world before the advancements of science. Ghosts, goblins, dragons, Gods, the reaper, fairies, vampires, werewolves, Nessie...... etc etc.

Are they all just personifications created by ancient man to explain natural events, unusual deseases, and strange creatures..... or are there shreads of truth behind them...

The whole subject of mythology and legends truly facinates me

(For the record, i believe that there is definitly life elsewhere, and i also firmly believe "ghosts" exist... allthough i can offer no reasonable explination as to what they are...)
