Yes. Seeing a ghost is a real human experience. I suspect that ghosts associated with hauntings, crisis apparitions and seeing your deceased relatives may all have different explanations. The term apparition used to mean the visual image of person that you know to not be physically present at your location was used as far back as 1882 in order to attempt to be more precise than the word ghost.
If a ghost is the surviving spirit of a person, a recorded memory impressed in the atmosphere, or access to a collective consciousness (all ideas to explain ghosts) is something that science has not yet determined.
Dreams and emotions are real and do not posses a physical structure so are ghosts material objects? most experiences suggest they are not.
However, quantum physics has proved that most material objects are also mostly empty space so....
For further information I suggest the following:

Ghosts are real. Demons are a tool of fear made up by the Christians. Many supposed Demons are Ancient Gods that preceded the Hebrew and Christian Gods. Two examples are Ba'al and Ashteroth, both of whom were fertility Gods of ancient Babylon and are spoken of by Christians and their books as Demons. The only life or being unnamed demons have is in the minds and writings of Christians.

I believe so. I believe all of them are real, but it depends on who is answering. Besides, no-one has proved whether they do or don't exist. Remember, not all ghosts are bad! Thats just the stereotypical view of them. The evil poltergeist stories get heard of more than the kind ghost stories, thus people think ghosts are evil! Whether real or not, I highly doubt you are being watched by demons/ghosts. I think you have read up on them/heard of them/seen a movie etc and you think about ghosts to the point that the mind believes they are really there! Pretty much your imagination running away with you. Don't get me wrong, I'm not calling you crazy, I get it all the time!

Yes, they are. I have personal experience with both. Most people are skeptics until they see something paranormal. That doesn't mean the paranormal doesn't exist.
But - check the area around where you get the feeling. If you have an electrical device giving off high EMF readings, it can also give you that creepy feeling.
If that isn't it, I'd suggest starting to research. You may be sensitive (you can pick up on the energy signatures of ghosts, etc.).
Good luck!

Fear is a powerful feeling, one that can rule the imagination, though who can say what is real and what is not? Myths have always held a shadow of truth. Perhaps it is better not to dwell to closely on thoughts that encompass such an emotion. After all, if you believe in such things, as the "unseen" then the theory of what is focused on, will be drawn closer, would apply.

I've never seen a ghost myself, but I've talked to lots of honest, reliable people who have seen them so I am pretty sure that they exist.
As for demons - well, I'm not so sure about them but I guess it may be possible.

They exist in the real world since their trapped spirits that can't release themselves out of the mortal realm. Demons also exist in the mortal world.
