Ghost, shmost! Show me an actual ghost and I'll believe. Otherwise, it's all ridiculousness.

yeah, i've never seen one myself so i therefore i don't believe in them. and for those who claim to have seen one, i guess the best explanation would be that they were halucinating. after all, if once can be chemically induced to halucinate, then i'm sure it is also possible for one to be psychologically and/or emotionally induced to halucinate.

cats, dogs, and many other animals can hear sound frequencies that humans cannot. what you assume to be a "sense" that these animals possess may be no more than their hearing sounds from frequencies that we can't hear. that doesn't necessarily mean there's anything supernatural invloved.

I respect those of you who don't believe, since seeing is believing, but as for me I've had many encounters. I've seen ghost, heard ghost and even seen physical objects move by them self. Back in 90's I use to volunteer my time to a paranormal research group. Most of the time I would sit and watch surveillance camera's all night and morning long. I would say only about 20% of the places I've investigated showed signs of hauntings. The percentage might of been more than 20% but if anything was questionable, then it would be ruled out. I will agree that in very rare case's, fear can cause one to hallucinate, but how often do you see fear physically open and close doors. Do surveillance camera's suffer from hallucinations when they capture objects that move by them self Everyone's entitled to their own opinion and I base mine off of first hand experience.

With computers and special effects in video these days it's hard to believe third-hand accounts.

However, I had experiences that I can't explain. I definitely believe there's more to this world that we know or are able to understand.

I can't believe I am going to admit this but I was made a believer shortly after my Mother passed away which was a whole different story that I won't get into because you guys will admit me but every now and again I get reminded that she is still around my house! I have had doors open for me as I reached for them (no shit, totally sober too) lights turn on in my hallway for no reason, the Microwave we keep unplugged because it would turn on by itself. I don't know what to say other than I am serious and I am not on medication nor do I need any

I don't know about ghost, but I think there are things unknown(to us) that can't be logically explained. I have had a few first hand strange experiences that IMO are more than just coincidences.
