With Halloween fast approaching, I was wondering if you believe in the paranormal. Why or why not?

I am of the opinion that the existence of a phenomenon should be supported either by reason or else a body of evidence. "Paranormal stuff" are by definition those things that have no normal evidence, so I am comfortable assuming they do not exist until I have some reason or evidence at hand to suggest to me that they do.

Fortunately or unfortunately my belief has nothing to do with Halloween. I don't generally believe in anything I've not experienced first hand. I'm a practicing shamanist so what most people consider paranormal, I pretty much consider everyday. I'm not a proponent of UFO's at least not so far as beings from other planets coming to visit. But we've barely scratched the surface of what there is to know about our own planet. I don't see why people would reach for the explanation of aliens without considering other possibilities. Ghosts, yes, I see them almost daily.

Yes, but not because Halloween is approaching.
I basically was raised hearing about paranormal things happening to my aunts, friends, etc. So when you believe in stuff, you start being aware of things that a non-believer would just pawn off as a rat or the wind. But pictures on my wall have been tilted, every day. Not just a slight tilt either, but to the extent of where the nail holding it up is twisted/bent. Not to mention weird smells of cigars, (my grandfather passed away and his house smelled like there was always atleast 4 people smoking cigars in it.) well anyway, ever since he died people have complained in my house of smelling cigars and beer.

It's hard not to believe in it. It just depends on how MUCH of the paranormal you believe in.
I believe in ghosts, but I really don't believe in witches. There is probably some sort of telekinesis or something, but spells just seems farfetched to me.
But since life is energy, it can't just go away. It's safe to say that ghosts really exist.

do no longer ask human beings. till you journey it your self you will under no circumstances have self assurance it. some won't have self assurance their very own ears, eyes or senses. Skeptics will consistently be skeptical and my primary rule even for believers is to be skeptical of each little thing and study from all angles earlier coming on your end. So my answer is to ask your self, became what you experienced actual or became it something you made up on your head?

I believe in the paranormal because I can see ghosts, sense other spirits and release my chi flow as an offense or defense

No, but with advanced technology in ultrasound communications and non-visible lasers there are corporate security agents using those devices covertly against American citizens.
It is not paranormal, it is the unethical use of science, which is sorcery according to what I understand of the Bible, and those people are headed to the Lake of Fire that burns forever and ever. (These people however are ruled by demonic spirts, whether they carry a Bible or attend church or not.)Amen!

Yes
But I also believe that there is a solid scientific explanation for 99.9999% of everything seen as paranormal
