Ghost are demons, demons can take any form, why would God being the almighty, let the dead hang around, even if they had unfinished business to attend to. Demons are fallen angels and have the same power as Angels do. They like to inhabit places were a traumatic event took place. This is called a territorial stronghold. Usually called hauntings. "Stronghold"-Greek-strong's-fortress, or prison-fortified place. 2 Cor 10:3-5. Remember the story of the Gergesene Demoniacs in Matt 8:28-34. (Mark 5:1-20, Luke 8:26-39) If you’re not religious, you may want to read it. This territory had a stronghold of demons over it, not to mention one man (Personal stronghold-possession) who had a legion of demons in him. Mark 5:9. Jesus freed the man, and in so doing freed the territory of its stronghold/haunting. When the demons went into the swine, the demons did not like the swine, so they drown the swine, this also killed the pigs that the Pagan worshippers used to sacrifice to their God's and killed that business off as well. Jesus healed the land and killed the Pagan worshipping (they used the pigs to sacrifice for food for their god’s) business for a time. My point is, demons are Ghosts and dead people are not.

I have. I was about 12 at the time and it was a family cabin where I was spending the night. To make a long story short I fell asleep on the couch and my friend was sleeping on the floor. I woke up for a moment and there was a fireman sitting on the chair across from me. His face was dark, where I couldn't see any facial features but he was wearing the firemans hat and he had an ax in his hand. It wasn't threating...it was like he was relaxing in the chair and the ax was just in his hand. I was very calm and relaxed. Then I drifted back off to sleep. I told my mom the next morning and she went pale white! I asked her what was the matter and she said that before her parents bought the cabin (about 15 years prior so it was before I was born) that the previous owner was a retired fireman and he ended up dying in the house due to a heart attack. I have the whole story about it on my myspace blog.....send me a message if you want the address to read the whole story about it.

I prefer to call them spirits...it is more encompassing....I have seen some....and not my family members...I just feel when they are present...Right now there is one hanging around my apartement...
Science attempts to explain a lot of things, but sometimes it falls short in things like this, because they cannot set any real standards to measure by....
