I really would like to hear from the people here. Do you believe that ghosts exist. What do you think about them. Do you have a ghost story that happened to you. I myself grew up not believing in ghosts and then for several months after my grandmothers death I saw her ghost. Over the years since then I have saw many more. How about you?
Well, I have seen too. It happened when i was at Class 9. My aunt was admitted in a Hospital around 150 kms from my home town and was supposed to undergo a surgery. I was sitting at my uncles place chatting with his wife and eating the snacks she offered. Suddenly my aunt came to the room where we were sitting and we both were happy to see her. My uncles wife offered snacks and turned to take a plate for her and suddenly my aunt vanished. We were astronished because she did not talk to both of us and then thought that she might have gone to my dads elder brothers house which was next door only. Suddenly the telephone rang and we got the news that my aunt died while on surgery. We were shocked because we saw her only minutes ago.
What is more amazing is that though both of us knew that she was in the hospital both of us forgot that the moment when we saw her.I haven't yet, but like to see or meet one!
However, I have heard lot of events of ghost. the one i remember is that of an arab family in UAE. A ghost seems to have appeared in a bathroom. And the whole family was scared of going to bathroom for weeks.
Also in UK there are several vacant homes and villas - left empty because of stories attached to them being hunted houses!crazyhorsesghost wrote:

Nope. But I don't believe in any invisible people, including ghosts, angels, devils, the invisible pink unicorn, gods, or any of their relatives.
Sometimes, when I feel like the story is more important than reality, I like to believe in aliens and Bigfoot. I know these are just fantasy, but they're at least more plausible than an afterlife.- 95

I also believe in aliens and I really think their has to be something to Big Foot. I believe something exists.
How could anyone NOT believe in ghost...hell...how do you forget so easily...???...don't everyone remember "Stay-Puff"...???

Hmmm.... well, without some kind of proof, I'm still gonna go with "nope." Sure, you say you saw your dead grandmother. But, um, people say all kinds of things on the Internet. For that matter, people say all kinds of things in real life. And you might not even be lying-- you might really believe you saw it. But without some kind of really solid evidence that wasn't doctored, I'm still gonna go with "nope."
Also, I find it telling that this thread is in Entertainment instead of Religion. If you REALLY saw ghosts, then I think you wouldn't put it in the same classification as American Idol and the new Star Trek movie.

No I have no problem with what you wrote because until I saw the things I saw I never believed in them either. But I have saw a lot of things. And I'm not sure about some of what I saw. Some of it was confusing as hell. But I really do like hearing what other people believe. I really do.

You really scared me telling this thing, how will i sleep tonight
Just because you can't prove it doesn't make it unreal. I for one am a believer.

See, now, here's where you and I will have to simply disagree. Lack of scientific proof does, in fact, equate to "not real" in my mind. It's not that *you* have to prove it-- it's that some sort of scientific study has to prove it. To date, that hasn't happened.
Also, it's okay with me if *you* believe in ghosts. You probably also believe in god. For all I know, you might also believe in the tooth fairy. Do I think you're wrong? Yes. Do I think I need to change your mind? Not really.
Which might make you wonder why I replied at all. The original question was asking if we believe in ghosts, and the original poster says she's interested in all answers. So, since I know most people replying are probably ghost-believers, I thought it would be helpful to add the voice of a non-believer to the mix.

The hard proof that ghost don't exist is that there is no hard proof that they do exist.
I am open to anything but when it comes to the supernatural I cannot be turned to believing that people pass away and then come back to earth to roam.- 95

Good posts. In fact thought provoking. I will add in a hub url here of mine I did in the last few days. Its of famous ghost photos so it is some hard evidence to go along with this thread.
http://hubpages.com/hub/Famous-Ghost-Photographs
Would be really interested in what you think about the ghost photos there. At least it is a little hard evidence. crazyhorsesghost wrote:

I really think photo artifacts and after-images don't constitute hard evidence. Very easy to fake. Very easy to mistake. Film images are notorious for artifacts and double-imaging. Digital images are especially prone to manipulation.
Why would someone take a photo in 1891 of an empty chair at a funeral? At the time, film was expensive and photography was time consuming. People didn't go around photographing their furniture. They did, however, go around positioning a guy in a chair, snap a shot, then re-shoot the same frame of film with the chair empty to create a ghostly image.
Evidence is something repeatable, measurable, identifiable.
I continue to maintain that this thread belongs in Religion.- 95

yes, I believe they do. I wrote a hub recently about that. I just don't think they have the ability to
communicate with us. I think they are images of the past.- 95

If I had to believe anything then this is what it would be, but then you have to question how and why the images are being projected and why more than others? It also does not back up why some people feel a chilling draft when they are in a haunted environment.
With regards to the photos, I cannot believe them; some are blatant fakes and you can tell a mile off. I would like to be proved wrong though if any more are available?
