As for the people who say "ghost dont exist" why dont you check out a couple haunted sites and see for your self. I totally believe that there are ghosts. It is believed that they stay because they have unfinished business that they wish to take care. Another possibility is that want revenge on the person who killed them and another possibility could be that they dont know that they are dead! What ever the case, i still believe that their are ghosts around the world

Usually it is unfinished business, or they died tragically, or their murderer has yet to be caught/justice yet to be done, or they are in some guardian angel type capacity over the living or a place, or they warn of impending doom or death, such as the belief in some Highland clans that a wails or weeping would be heard when a clan member or especially chieftan would die or had in some far off place, long before word reaches them by human hands. Pirates thought that ghosts of men they murdered while burying treasure would guard it as a ghost.

In some interior sight American cultures and some Mesoamerican cultures, and if memory serves there ought to correctly be some African and Asian peoples who believe this too, there's a ritual finished a 365 days after the demise, by way of conception that the spirit remains on the point of its former residing house and kinfolk for a 365 days, or for a 365 days and an afternoon. As Halie Loren sang in a unmarried of her eye-catching songs, "Time brings replace and adjust takes time." human beings can adapt to at least some thing, yet we do not do it in one day. The movie "What desires ought to Come" with Robin Williams replaced right into a quite precise portrayal of ways disoriented a spirit is before everything after crossing over, and then the way it gradually receives its "sea legs." Ghosts who die very without word, who're stuck with techniques from wonder or are very indignant or apprehensive or in discomfort as we talk of demise, have a tendency to have slightly more advantageous problem getting oriented. I did some artwork once with some little toddler ghosts who were trapped in a scary difficulty, and an fairly creepy darkish being replaced into telling them that in the journey that they tried to leave they could get damage. The darkish creature replaced into feeding off their worry. i replaced into able to emphasize it off and help them on their way. each and every so often human beings stick round to be close to human beings they care about, or to assist others.

Ah, I've had a lot of expericence in this field.
Most of the time it's because theyhave "unfinished business", like watching over a loved one or seeking revenge. Sometimes, the spirit has a very deep connection to where it stays and continues to stay there, instead of moving to "heaven" or "hell".

I have heard different theories....it is because they loved the place they are haunting and dont want to leave, some say the ghosts don't know they're dead, or because their death was traumatic and sudden,and unfinished business; angry spirits etc.

Sometimes it's because of unfinished business..
Sometimes they don't know they're dead or for some reason, are unable to pass through to the next world. They just get trapped in our world. Others just don't want to leave. They don't accept the fact that they're dead. They are at unrest, and therefore cannot move on.

Hello and I do a lot of research on this and I am a professional when it comes to paranormal. Spirits stay due to two reason they want someone who is sensitive meaning someone with psychic or intutive abilities to help them solve there crime or help others. Also it can be energy left behind that replays itself. Meaning when space and time collide sometimes the energy of that person stays which is called resudule energy of them. Let me know if you need more information.

they either died a violent death and were not finished with life, or had unfinished business, or were just happy in the life they had and don't want to leave, or don't know they are dead.
