Ghosts Options

[*jeanna*]

Has anyone seriously seen one before?

My sister swears she has seen a little boy at my Grandma's house of some boy who fell out their window and died a long time.
I don't believe in ghosts.
Since Halloween is coming, I thought I would ask.

[Sandraaa]

No. I've never seen a ghost. Then again, I don't believe in them. I will never believe they exist. Supernatural isn't my thing.

[S-Majere]

I don't think you necessarily have to see to believe.

[HakunaMatata]

I, personally, don't believe they exist, but I know quite a few very honest people who not only completely believe in their existence but have encountered several of them. And honestly, who am I to question their beliefs? I know they wouldn't lie about it, but I just can't imagine a dead person wandering aimlessly here when they could go off to say, heaven, and if they wouldn't go there, then.....well, that's not for me to answer.

And even if I did believe in them, I wouldn't be scared. If they're dead, then I don't think they can't be of any physical threat.

[Jinny]

I've never seen a ghost, but I'm REALLY scared of them for some reason I'm just really, really afraid of them. Especially Asian ghosts, you should see them.. they're blue and glowy and really scary..? Ever since I saw this movie with ghosts in it, I've kind of believed in them.. even though it sounds pathetic. They showed a ghost on a camera that was Why am I even saying that? Anyway, yes I believe in ghosts

[RAWRstephishere]

I have had a lot of paranormal related experiences and have seen several things.I remember that when I was little, I used to see an old woman sitting in the rocking chair that was in my living room. She was dressed in old clothing and she was always knitting something. It was really weird. I guess that's what happens when you live in a house that is more than 100 years old. Things turn on and off in my house, occasionally somebody hears their name beng called, you can sometimes hear footsteps in the bedrooms upstairs, sometimes something will touch you when you're in a room all by yourself, and every now and then you catch a glimpse of a figure.

I think it was the first year that my family and I had started living in this house, there was this really bad snow storm and my brother was supposed to shovel out the driveway because my dad was supposed to be coming home for the weekend. Well my brother had left not too long after my mom had told him that he needed to go and shovel out the driveway. So my mom was not too happy and was waiting for him to get home. Right before it got dark outside, we heard the front door open, footsteps up the stairs, his bedroom door opened and closed, and then we heard who we thought was my brother walking around in his room. Well, my mom went to the bottom of the stairs and yelled for him, she got no answer. So she went upstairs, knocked on his door, and still got no answer. Yet she could hear footsteps in his room. So finally she opened the door and there was nothing in there. That was the weirdest thing ever.

Another time I seen something, was when I was visiting my sister and brother. My sister had been having a hell of a time with my nephew. He wouldn't hardly sleep at night anymore because he always complained of seeing monsters in his room, having horrible dreams, and bad things telling him that they were going to get him. I didn't really think much of it or anything. I mean, what kid doesn't claim that monsters are after them? Well I was watching TV with my mom and my sister in my sisters living room. I just happened to look in the hallway not too far from my nephews bedroom door and I don't know what to call what it was that I had seen. It was really icky looking. The flesh on it was completely rotted, it's eyes were nothing more than pitch blackness, the nose looked as if it had been ripped off or something, and the mouth was almost non-existant. I freaked out for about 2 hours. My mom and my sister could not calm me down.

Another time I seen something,

man, that completely threw off the story for me

[xtwitchyx]

I was too lazy to move it. Sorry.

[brooklyneast05]

i'll never forgive u as long as i live!!!!!!!!!!!

good stories, but i don't get it. there was a monster with it's skin peeling off in the house?

[xtwitchyx]

What if I give you candy? Will you forgive me then? After all, strangers have the best candy.

I honestly don't know what it was. However, we did some digging on information about the house and there was a very odd history to it. My nephew was like 2 or 3 at the time and was convinced that the devil was going to get him. Which was odd because nobody ever talked about stuff like that in front of him. So I don't know. I just never want to see anything like that ever again.

[Insurmountable]

Oh I love hearing ghost stories and such like what you explained xtwitchyx. I don't really know if I believe in them or not (ghost that is) but I mean I like hearing the old history of places and stuff. I live in this really historic town and we have ghosts walks in the last two weeks of October. Pretty much these older houses that have a history of ghosts are used and people that know the old tales will wait for people to come and they'll tell the tale of the house. Sometimes on Halloween night you can feel the presence or see ghosts. I never have though.

[libertie]

I'm with Kaycee in that I don't personally believe that ghosts exist, or, if they do, that it's possible to have an encounter with one. However, I've heard many people tell rather believable stories, and these are people whose opinions I consider to be credible, so I don't question their stories. I guess it's the kind of thing you don't get unless it's happened to you, but I can't just make myself believe it.

[misoshiru]

No, but my campus is one of the most haunted locations in the U.S.

[xtwitchyx]

I don't 100% trust those tours. I would have to go on one to find out for myself about which is crap and which is not. But yeah, history of historic places interest me too. My house was the first hosue built in the town that I live in.

One thing that always freaks people out when I tell them stories about this house is... My mom had lived in this town when she was little and my grandparents had a friend who lived in this house at one time. Well this friend of theirs also died in this house and my mom was here the day that he died. After he had passed away, his wife used to call my uncle and say that she was hearing someone walking up the stairs and into the bedrooms. She always claimed that somebody had broken in or something and would have my uncle come check everything out. My uncle was never able to find anybody.

I know that her husband was suppsoed to not drink anymore, but he had a few little hiding places under the floors in the bedrooms upstairs. So I guess we always assumed that it was him maybe walking around looking for his little bottles of booze. He had hiding places outside in the yard too and we have found bottles while digging up certain areas in the yard. Not only that, but we found a floor baord in my room that was able to be lifted up. Never found anything inside of there though.

Still, I do sometimes often wonder if it really was him. I mean, after we would hear the walking around and say "George(That was his name.) knock it off", it would all stop. I just don't know though.

[*jeanna*]

i saw most haunted on travel channel and found this:
so scary

[Jennifer]

...Still, I do sometimes often wonder if it really was him. I mean, after we would hear the walking around and say "George(That was his name.) knock it off", it would all stop. I just don't know though.

Wow, scary
I do believe in ghosts but not how they're described, if that makes sense. Not the drenched in blood white figures making weird "oooh" noises while floating down the hallway. I more so believe in spirits.

When I was around 10, on a hot summer night I woke up at around 3am, restless because of the heat. I remember looking out through my bedroom door to see something glowy walking towards me, but fading away as it got closer. As I was 10, I completely crapped myself and ran to my mum's room. Everyone tells me, oh you were young, you must've imagined it, but seriously, I think I can tell when I'm imagining something and when I'm not

[JCLore]

I don't believe in Ghosts what so ever.
I do believe in Demons though.
I think thats where all ghost stories come from, Demons .

And whenever I see a horror film or hear a ghost story.
I get the giggles bad.
I seriously can't stop laughing.

[xtwitchyx]

^I get what you mean.

They say children are more sensitive to seeing them though.

I do the exact same thing but i laugh at psychotic killers like Michael Myers. Halloween was so funny! Especially when the little kids began to cry. ( Now that think about it i think i might be a little disturbed)

Anyways, my grandma who lives in Guadalajara, Mexico lives in a house that is placed on an old cemetery. When i was younger i went to visit her for a couple of weeks and right at the very moment that i walked through the front door, a door on the opposite side of the room leading to the kitchen slammed shut. At night when i tried to go to sleep i would keep getting up to turn off lights that would keep turning on. i would hear people walking down the halls when there was nobody there. Just strange eery noises...

So i guess what i'm trying to say is that I do belive in ghosts...

[IVIike]

my friend says she has one in her basement, and there was a little girl who died in that house right before she moved in.

[brooklyneast05]

kinda like they are more sensitive to believing in things like santa clause and the easter bunny

[xtwitchyx]

I wouldn't say all children are. There are some who don't think Santa or any other made up holiday person/creature are real.

But like the others said earlier, ghosts or any other paranormal related thing are something you don't really believe or understand until you experience it for yourself.

[Smarmosaur]

i beleive.
i've never had an encounter but some SUPERWEIRD things happen not just at my house but around this area; it's something to do with the civil war...i swear the dirt has to be made of bones.
i'd honestly probably scream to DEATH if i saw a ghost or something. then i'd kick myself after i get over the shock.

[arcanum]

There are haunted dorms up in the mountains where my best friends sister goes to college. They spent the night there once, and my best friend said she woke up and saw a little girl hovering over her.
Then she blinked and it was gone.
I've never personally seen one, but I do believe in 'spirits'.
