Default Do You Believe in Ghosts?

We are getting closer to Halloween. Check this out.

After Dorian goes by I'll start digging out my creepy spiders and get them ready to scare the crap out of Trick or Treaters. Do you have some fun at Halloween? I have a 3' jumping spider that hides in the bushes. When it jumps out and scares them a second spider slowly comes down from a tree branch behind them and hangs head high when they shriek and turn around. I also have a giant pirate skeleton and a graveyard skeleton hand that rises from beneath the Earth. Kids run, Moms are horrified and Dads start laughing. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA
BOOO

Nope.

And Yup. But our creepees are a little milder. Things like a witche's broom that starts wandering around the driveway when it senses nearby motion, animated witch's head in a crystal ball, stuff like that.

My son provided us with details of my father when he was 2-3 years old, claiming that my father visited him in his sleep on a few occasions. It was only information that I would have known, there was no way my son would have known what he observed about my father. That almost caused me to fall off my seat when he told us one morning after coming out of his bedroom. My son never met my father as he was born after my father passed away, and he was too young to really know anything about my father at the time. We don't openly display pictures of our relatives in our house either, most pictures are tucked away in albums only. That made me a believer I tell you. My wife also seems to attract all of our dead relatives, she is also a big fan of Halloween too. lol.

Me, three. I think of them as spirits, not ghosts.

No. They have not done anything to earn my belief.

If there was a ghost in that video, why didn't the cat see or sense it and look that way?

My "ghost story."
while in high school, we had a half day so got early release.
I was sitting at the kitchen table talking with my parents when mid-sentence, I interrupted myself to say " wow, someone we know just died".
It was 2:25 PM in the afternoon. about an hour latter they found one of my fellow bus drivers sitting in the parking lot near the high school.
His normal route had him arrive at that spot about 2:15 in the afternoon to give students a ride on the local route. he apparently died at somewhere around 2:30.
Due to the half-day no students arrived.

To this day I have no explanation.
