There have been times when I thought something just a bit weird was going on

90% of the time it's rational.
10% of the time it's probably rational, you just didn't think about it or know enough


As the system upgrades further every now and again I think "What is that ?!" (odd type noise, which surely cannot be coming from t'system)
Play it again and there it is

Nope. No ghost/supernatural goings on here. Maybe some people are more 'susceptible' than others.

I once had sex with one...



Oh, sorry I thought you said goat!

I have has experience of ghosting, but a bigger satellite dish fixed that.

I've not had any ghostly experiences however I can regale you with a funny "ghost" story from a pal who was working in Edinburghs old town refitting a restaurant. Big,strong lad feared of nowt. Grafting away in this cellar with another bloke and they keep hearing these groaning and moaning noises but couldn't place them at all. Anyway it shat them up a wee bit and they really didn't like it so after lunch they refused to go back to said cellar area. The boss takes it quite seriously as these were big lads who as mentioned weren't afraid of anything,so off he goes to the cellar to find out what's going on.
Right enough he hears the same noises but being older and having lived in Edinburgh a bit longer knows what it is.

It was a knocking shop tucked away quietly next door!!

Worth digging about for Tom Slemen books on ghosts as well.

Not a single experience. My gf had one, she believes, I believe her, but have never experienced a single thing.

I did read of an interesting study conducted by a group of scientists who set out to examine how fear of an unknown entity influences peoples perceptions of situations.

This group of scientists while working at a lab on other projects that were actually funded, on their lunch breaks, over the course of a year, decided to create a ghost from scratch. They gave it a name, Dave I think, they gave it a backstory, and they worked out how and when Dave died and how he came to haunt their facility.

Over time they began to believe, while observing themselves, that they were experiencing signs of Dave's presence. They did begin to experience spooky things, they thought, and did feel some fear. At that point all hell broke loose and they could see lights flickering and going out and coming back on and other strange happenings that might send someone running.

They felt this experiment was some evidence that a persons own fear of a ghost in their house could actually generate occurrences that otherwise would not have occurred if that persons fear was not present to twist their own perceptions of what is actually happening.

Not personally but the wife did, and so did one of my cousins. I had, and have, no reason to disbelieve either of them.

I think there have been way too many reports throughout the ages not to give some creedence to the idea of ghosts, for want of a better word, existing.

I was too young to have anything more than vague memories, but I did see a ghost repeatedly when I was a toddler. We lived in a new build home and I slept in a cot in my parents room.

I started seeing a figure come through the wall and head for my side of the room. He was crying out "George!" repeatedly. This happened every night until my parents went to the local church and the vicar did a cleansing.

The vicar did some research and found out that our house was built on an old track. A guy was murdered by robbers on the very spot a long time ago. He was out searching for his missing brother, who was called George.

I haven't seen or heard anything since, but I do believe and I also think small children are more likely to be able to see and hear spirits because they are more open to experiences.

I used to watch 'Most Haunted' on TV and some of the 'goings on' were extremely hard to explain rationally.
However the credence of the programme vanished quickly when I read that their chief medium was apparently faking it and was promptly shown the door...
