Why ghost only reported appearing in old house or deserted places?

Question

I've heard many ghost stories and several friends experienced it themself. I wonder why ghost stories related with old spooky places like old house, bulidings and woods (I went to a fila where the surroundings were woods and hills, my friends acclaimed they saw strange things. They did it except me!)
Are ghost has favourite places to dwell or itu just stupid imagination of many people had because it's old and deserted.

Answer 1

Ghosts or spirts can and do appear anywhere, but people are so busy and preoccupied with their own lives, have so many things going on, radios, tv, computers,, etc., plus anything else, that they don't slow down and be quite long enough to see or hear them. When something does happen they dismiss it as their imagination.

Answer 2

When I first saw a ghost I began researching this stuff on the internet alot. I learned even more by experimentation after reading what I learned. Ghosts are in old places, mostly because the either lived in or near that place a long time ago. They are like those stubborn old people that won't leave their house when the flood is coming. Sometimes ghosts hang out in the woods because it is a place of memories. The woods may look creepy now, but when they were alive it may have been a beautiful landscape. In their reality it still is a beautiful place. Ghosts have the ability to alter their own visual perception, and I believe they can even move along the timeline at will. I've been in the spirit world and know how the energy feels in their place. It's totally different. When overcome by a spirit entity that touches or enters inside of you, you will feel an overwhelming sensation of joy. That is the perception of their reality. It is the world, with evil wiped away from it. Until you experience it yourself, you may not understand what I mean since we live in this world of heaviness and confusion from the dominions of evil.

This is for u and everyone else who don't beleive in spirits. Let me first say that I don't go around telling just anybody this becuase alot of people would rather think someone is crazy or has a vivid imagination. Well I'm a very well adjusted adult. I guess one would just have to take my word on that. I've had several experiences with spirits, and I can tell you they certainly do exsist. The worst experience I had was in 1996-1997 in a nice apartment, after getting upset with it moving things around to scare my husband who's nerves were raw because of the experience, I yelled at it to leave us alone. A few minutes later as I was laying in bed with my husband talking all of a sudden I couldn't breath and felt an enormous amount of pressure on my chest till I passed out for a second or 2. It also, one night as we were getting ready for bed in our room, decided to assault our stereo cabinet, shook and rattled it until the front glass fell off onto the floor. Let me say also that we don't live anywhere where there are earthquakes. We were so scared we grabbed our small son at the time and ran from the apartment to go to my girlfriend's apartment downstairs from us. It was around 4:00 am and she was attending school at the time and I would have disturbed her at that hour unless I really had to. My son (5yrs)at the time, would complain of someone flushing the toilet for him,it was his favorite part of using the washroom. You all can call me crazy but I know what all of us felt and saw and this was just a small portion of it.

God has given special space for each living entity to live on this earth. Just like wild jungles are for Tigers, etc . This enables different creatures to coexist.
Old houses, Burials and deserted Places are given to the ghosts so that they can live there without disturbing others..

But men have a nasty Habit of poking there nose..

Answer 5

sometimes it helps the property value go up,or makes for good stories,i don't believe in ghost,i figure that if someone dies,either hes going to heaven or hell,or that's that....people make good money on praying on people who believe in stuff like ghost,as for people who claim they saw something,the mind will see a persons emotions at times,if your scared enough and want to see something,the mind will show you something,even if its a shadow,they have done many blind studies where they told people a house is haunted when it was not,and people reported seeing or hearing strange things,and the opposite was a so called haunted hose the people were told it was not haunted and nothing was seen or heard. but theirs nothing wrong in believing,fear is a good emotion,makes you know you still have an imagination.

Answer 6

I know from personal experieince a ghost can show up in the most unexpected of places.
They are not all creepy venues either
They are not looking to harm you
Just restless souls looking for closure of their time here on earth
Blessed Be

Answer 7

Iv'e never seen a ghost, but i'm not saying they don't exist. My theory about the places they haunt has some kind of special meaning.

Answer 8

No. I had an experiance when I was 10yrs old and I wasn't in a spooky old house. I was in Florida with my mom visiting my aunt. We stayed a couple of nights with them. We had taken my grandmother down there , she didn't know how to drive. Well my aunt and uncle were pranksters, as kids they use to say things to us kids just to see if we believed them. Well when we got there they told us their house was haunted. I didn't believe them, at least not until the second night. My mom was asleep on the couch, my brother was on a cot next to the one I was on, my sister slept with my grandmother upstairs. I was awaken by something putting pressure on my legs. I could feel their hands holding them down. I open my eyes to see no one there but I could feel their hands. I wanted to scream so bad but I was afraid if I did it would kill me . It finailly let me go and I fell back to sleep, but only for a short time, my mother got all of us kids up at like 3 in the morning because it did try to kill her by sufficating her. She was very religious and the only thing she knew to do was quote scripture from the bible, that scared her so bad that we left right then we kids didn't even get to change our clothes she want us out of there. I hadn't even had the chance to tell her what it did to me since it attacked her on the same night. It would even leave a message for my aunt and uncle on a sheet of paper telling them to get out. I lived in England for 2 yrs and had one in our apartment or flats as they call them. It would turn the lights on and off all the time. And it would knock on my door. There were only 6 apartments in the building and all of us were in the military / military wives the other girls would always ask me who was banging on my door and I never had an answer for them. There were times when you could be in a certain part of the apartment and it would get so cold in that one spot. And now of all things I live on one the old battle fields of the civil war. Things happen that can't be explained. Even my husband has had strange things happen to him and he doesn't even believe in it but he can't explain anything either. It's real.

Answer 9

some people think that ghosts are people who die unexpected. i think that ghosts appeared in old house or deserted places cuz no one dare to go to that certain houses/places that the ghost appeared. so over the period the houses/place became old & deserted.

Answer 10

It's the imaginings of a by-gone time when mysticism ruled and science was low and ppl tried to explain the unexplainable with their five senses...it still happens today, but it makes for a great time if done right!
