Ghosts

EPIC dead-thread revive, in keeping with the "spirit" of some other threads.

Ah, I see what you did there hahaha

Put another one down for believing in the Holy Ghost.

I voted yes, but I'm really not sure. I kinda want to believe they are real though.

A little story.
Just after my daughter was born, the nurse brought her in to me. I was talking to her (my daughter) and telling her how happy I was that she was part of the family.
As I looked at my daughter, my late twin sister's face appeared and she (my late sister) was beaming! (She loved kids!) So, I knew that my daughter had her Aunt's blessing.

Another story.
After my son was born, my aunt stated that he (son) looked just like my father did when he was a baby. (My son was born on the first aniversary of my father's death.)
The next day, my aunt told my mother and me that she had been awakened by a light in the living room. She went to check it out and found that the light was coming from a fish tank. The fish tank was NOT plugged in! No way the light should have come on. None.

Yep! I'm a believer.

Grew up in a rural area that most everybody had a paranormal experience of some kind(including most of my family). Ive seen a black mass move across the floor & disappear into the fire place in my childhood home. At one time was a bed & breakfast for the railroad & had a interesting history , there was always weird stuff but most were just more mischevious type things.Im pretty open to this type of activity & whenever Im in a house or an area that makes me uncomfortable ( hard to explain it ),Im pretty sure there is an unsettled spirit in the area. Wife usually picks up on this too but in her case,she was raised in a devout christian family & is still very open to the possibility of evil spirits causing trouble .

This is the reason I wanted to buy a new home instead of an old one.

Never seen one, never heard one, never been touched. In my 30 years at the cemetery, I have seen and smelled a lot of dead people but they all have stayed put so far and never tried to contact me once. When that happens I will then say yes.

It's a given that there are many, many more dead people than there are live people. So, if ghosts are real, shouldn't we be seeing as many or more of them than we are seeing live people?

There are many more living people than i have seen. If there are so many living people, shouldn't i be seeing them?

I ain't afraid of no ghosts

 

[femurphy77]

I'm guessing that since this 3 year old thread came back from the dead that ghosts must exist.

I usually hate old threads coming back to life, but I enjoyed looking at some of the posts from people that are rarely or never around any more that I had grown to really like.

 

[Sylvain]

What the deuce?
It's an old one.

Aside from the Holy Spirit (Ghost if you will) I do not believe in ghosts. In addition there are either angels or demons, period. Your dead grandpa's spirit is not walking around.

You asked...

 

[lrahm]

Absolutely. Quite fond of the holy one!

Nicely put.

One morning I was walking downstairs to leave the house and I just so happened to look up and see a man all dressed up in a KKK uniform watching me. I watched back because I thought I was seeing things. I walked down the stairs like nothing happened and I didn't freak out until I got outside. I also hear the floors creak randomly and always feel like I'm being watched. And my house is relatively new (2001).

This.

 

[G-Niner]

I voted no without even thinking about it. The entire notion is absurd. But if they do exist I'll bet they are members of INGO. In fact there was this one guy at this last 1500....

And in this thread's case, not just once, but twice.

As this one pre-dates my time here, it was fun to read for the first time (I think I missed its first resurrection).
