Do you believe in ghosts?

Answer 1

Yes, I do. My mom and dad bought a house over 40 years ago. The family they bought it from told them that their father passed away in the house. Short story--I've seen an elderly man in the hallway and what used to be my parent's bedroom. So I definately believe.

Answer 2

I believe that the myth of the ghost originated from one of the simplest and quite common human defects: hallucinations and delusions of the mind. Some adults may have used the ghost as a scare tactic against children to discourage them from wandering alone or going out at night. Or just to scare them. Perhaps one day, in ages past, the elder or leader of a village told a story to all the children of the village, of beings that came to be known as ghosts or poltergeists that lurked in the depths of night, waiting for unwary prey. Then those children would grow up to perhaps believe that things such as ghosts truly existed, through means of burning beliefs into their minds at such an early age when their minds are open to new knowledge. You see, I believe the ghost not to be a horror or a spirit, but a belief that has been passed down and implanted into our minds ever since the concept of otherworldly, supernatural spirits came into the mind of man. Thus being so, the story of the ghost is much older than anyone would expect. Out of caring and loving for their children, adults or parents long ago probably planted the idea of a ghost or bad spirit into their innocent, open minds. Then that belief sank in, and soon as they grew up they may have started to see what they believed to have been ghosts or spirits, only to be mere delusions and hallucinations created by the mind. For example, people with paranoia, schitzophrenia, or even high self-consciousness see things that aren't really there, due to the condition they are in. One of the things that they believed to have seen may be the ghost. Thus, the very origin of the concept of the ghost can be found in the minds of humans, the delusions we often tend to have, and often tend to mistake for something real.

Then again, some events have gone unexplained...

Answer 3

Yes. Some years ago while living in an old house my dog started to walk into the Sitting room and suddenly stopped. All the hackles on her back stood on end and she started to bark and growl furiously. I walked over to the part of the room where she was looking at and suddenly I entered a very cold patch and felt very uneasy. A few days' later I was told that somebody had died in that room a few years earlier. I believe it was a ghost but I never saw anything only the cold feeling in one spot in the room but I am sure that my dog saw something - maybe it was that person who passed away years earlier. Very spooky.
