Ghosts could be real, depending on how you look at it. There are things,especially things, having to do with Extra Sensory Perception(ESP),that can not be easily verified,but then,they are real and palpable.
Your ability to say whether something is real or not,will depend on your level of perception and sensitivity to some of these phenomenon of nature.
How sensitive are you, and do you have some knowledge on some of these phenomenon. So,yes,Ghosts could be real.
Don't take my words,try find out. :lol2: :roll:

I do not believe in the scary kind of ghosts that are just out to haunt people, but I do believe in ghosts. I believe that when your loved ones die they sometimes come to check on you. My mom has recently passed and I have just been having a hard time coping with it, but it's like when ever I need someone to talk to she's always there. I am sure that I have seen her watching over my little girl, but it could have also been a figment of my imagination.

I'm not sure if I believe in ghosts. I am open minded about it, I personally haven't had any experiences where I thought I seen or heard something. I am very interested in the supernatural though, it is my favourite genre for books and shows/movies.

Yes I do but I like to call them spirits. My dad's house is full of them. They are all bad spirits and all they bring is negativity. There's an old woman that sits on the couch, my little brother saw a silhouette of a man walk a cross the room and my sister saw a boy in the cupboard. I havnt seen them like my siblings and I havnt felt them like my mum but once I heard someone screaming at the end of the hall when no one was there. sButometimes we hear the door bell ring at midnight but their aren't even any batteries in it. But not all the spirits are bad. At my mum's house we have good protective spirits. Every once in a while when she feels she needs to she burns sage and wafts the smoke gently around the house. This cleanses the house to get rid of all the negative spirits and welcomes all the positive ones. We have a little old man that guards out house. He lives us and mum heard him chuckle when she took out new dog out for a walk, she said he says that he likes our dog. We each have our own guardian Angel that watched over is where ever we go. So yes I do believe in ghosts but not like the cliche 'boo' green ghosts but more like beings that only some can see hear or feel. My mum says that me and my brother are protectors we have an energy that keeps away the negative spirits. ?

I do believe in spirits. I also believe they can be both good or bad. I dont think its a one shoe fits all kind of thing. There are so many different reasons as to why people who have passed away stick around. My children have gaurdian angels, quite frequently I can hear my great great nan singing to my daughter and have done so since she was a baby and quite often there's a smell of cigar in my son's room or around him.

Yes, I do believe in ghosts. I enjoy reading fact based ghost stories. I also like watching several of the paranormal reality shows, but I do realize that they are heavily scripted.

The jury is still out on this one. I know there are things that are unknown and and I know that I don't have all the answers so I will say for now that I believe ghosts could exist.

Though I don't believe in fairies or angels and mostly avoid fantasy reads. But I don't why but I do believe in ghosts. Sometimes I even dream about them.

I am skeptical about the existence of ghosts. I have heard myriads of stories by people describing their face-offs with "ghosts". The degree of strangeness keeps on increasing as the stories describe how my cousin was almost choked to death while asleep only to find himself alone as woke up,a female voice crying out for help after sunset in an old locked up fort and many more.Although sometimes I am intrigued how every ghost has backup story that keeps it rooted to the world of the living.Keeping aside the fact how much i wish to be encountered by a being from the world of dead in order clarify whether the worlds of the dead and the living exist parallel to each other or not,I don't believe in them unless i have met one.
Looking at ghosts from a view shaped by the belief in spiritual science of soul forces me to accept their existence. It represents ghosts as souls who are unable find way back home as they are blinded by thick veil of bad karma from their past lives.

I've had several what you might call paranormal experiences, all minor, none threatening apart from one which made me fall off my bike when I was about twelve - and that was only for a second or so. I don't know what caused them, but there was more than just my own brain involved - twice I somehow linked with another person at a time of trouble. But like katiesquilts says, if they don't bother me, I'll not bother them.

I definitely don't believe in ghosts although I do have a different reason for explaining all the ghostly experiences that a person may have.

That's a big yes! I used to live in a house and hear voices, no, I'm not crazy. My two small children at the time, also heard people talking, things would fly across the room. I was in my bedroom reading one day, no one else was home, I didn't have a radio or tv in my room and all of a sudden, loud music started playing. It was the kind of music they played at balls in the old western movies. I hollered real loud, and it stopped just as suddenly as it started. So, for all of you that don't believe, I'm happy for you, because it scares the +++ out of me.

I personally dont believe in ghosts. Spirits idk really but Demons absolutely. It doesn't really affect how much i enjoy a book just the quality of writing is important.
