I am looking to read of people who think the ACTUALLY saw a ghost as opposed to a paper moving because of no wind or noises..

After I hear a number of reports, I have a payoff that may make you realize IT'S GOTTA BE FAKE!

(It may not be too hard to figure out.)

If you can DESCRIBE what it looked like as it adds to questioning my inquiry of seeing one...

..I wish.

I saw a ghost once when I was a kid, but I'm not convinced I really saw one.  It was just something inexplicable.

Yes, I have some stories

Back in 1990, me and my mother lived in a 1 Bedroom Apartment.  I was only like 4 years old at the time, but I remember getting up in the middle of the night to get a glass of water.  It was dark all in the apartment, and right after I poured my glass of water, as I turned around, something came out of the Closet next to the Bathroom and it was in the form of a Man.  He picked me up and layed me back down in Bed and I screamed like a maniac and my mother woke up and I told her that someone had put me in bed.  She never believed me, but it happened and I still remember it well

Another time was when I would stay over at my Aunt/Uncles house back around 1992 or so and sleep over there.  Whenever I would get scared, I would go into their room and sleep on the floor next to their bed.  Well I can remember atleast 2 times in which I was awaken in the middle of the night by a person hovering on the ceiling and he would talk to me, but I don't remember at all what we talked about

Okay..some THINK they saw one...what did it LOOK like ..i.e. you've heard of some who see old soldiers, little kids..forget what they did..describe the ghost -which will clarify what I am trying to question initially.. Thanks...

In 1992, when I was 10 yrs old, I was playing catch in my bedroom with my brother and I saw a big white figure go across the hallway. It really shocked me and I couldn't even play anymore. I couldn't get the image out of my head. I still can't, and that was almost 14 years ago!

Also, in 1996 when I was 14, I was laying in bed and I heard someone come up to my ear and call my name. What makes this coincidence even more odd is that my Aunt came to live with us 2 years later with her daughter, and she also had the same experience without knowing anything was going on. She heard someone come up to her, call her name, rustle through her drawers. She thought it was her daughter so she called her daughter's name and when she didn't see anyone, she said she hid under the blankets - lol. Kinda creepy!

Many years ago ... one night I was home alone.  I was going out to my shed to make sure I had locked it, and as I was walking back to my house, I noticed something weird.  I could see a shadowy silhouette in my bathroom window holding the curtains open at an angle.  I ran inside and ran upstairs, but didn't see nothing.  I've tried to convince myself that it was maybe the reflection of the moonlight on the glass, but I know what I saw and still often think aobut what it could have been

The ghost of my dead gran-uncle come to me one time and tell me wheres he hid all his money.  He told me it was in the attic, but I went there and nothing there.  So the ghost lie, or wasn't no ghost, I don't know which.

You silly rabbit, there are no such things as ghosts, if there were I would have seen one and so would you and so would he and so on and so on.........

I believe in ghost.  Though I have never actually seen one I have had a couple of things happen to me thatare almost impossible to explain any other way.  One of the times I found out the following day that I was far from the only one to have a weird experence in that room. 

And they say that those times that you think you see something move out of the corner of your eye and your turn and there is nothing there that the majority of the time there is actually something there and that it isnt your mind playing games with you.

Allright, since many haven't actually seen a ghost per say, they felt one, thought something was there etc.. the point I was looking to make to those who think they SAW a ghost was to answer this:  If ghost are REAL......














WHY ARE THEY ALWAYS WEARING CLOTHES?!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT? Is there some sort of cool ghostwear they shop for on the other side???
EVER HEAR OF ANYONE!!!! SEEING A NAKED GHOST....?????
WHY DO GHOSTS AND SPIRITS WEAR CLOTHES IN THE FIRST PLACE?
MAYBE THEY'RE DRESSED TO GO TO A PARTY HUH?

Sorry to burst your bubbles....the ghosts you THINK you see are NOT! 
Thanks for playing along... Now rest easy...

Excerpt from articalon debunking the paranormal from SKEPTICS MAGAZINE:

What science has “adequately demonstrated” about the paranormal is, however, in my opinion, even more profound: What are called paranormal occurrences are often indistinguishable from far more mundane explanations. This includes the list you are fully aware of such as; selective confirmation, inexperienced observers, placebo effects etc. etc. etc.

The question is: How many different ways do we need to eliminate the paranormal experimentally for people to lose interest? I suspect the answer is “infinite”. Like freedom, the price of rationality is eternal vigilance

There have been a few times when I know what I saw with my own two eyes BUT I'm not convinced my brain processed what I saw correctly.

Once when I was ten I awoke to see a glowing cherubic figure of a little girl in a white gown.

On a talk radio show, I actually got to question the "Ghostwhisperer' Marianne- which the show is tied to..

Asking why we don't see ghosts from the past and other curious questions..she could only repeat how they(ghosts) follow the laws of physics and can't move from a certain time...WHY DOESN'T ANYONE EVER SEE THE GHOST OF A CAVEMAN OR KING FROM LANCELOT DAYS? I thought they see old ghosts in England...

Sorry, I couldn't buy into her answer, as good as she claims to be..She deals with ghosts who have not left the Earth plaiin..


Also, when people died and come back to us WHY DON'T WE SEE THEM AT THE AGE THEY DIED?
She again tried to justify that we see them at a point where we would recognize them...Uh...I think I would know my dead relatives!! HELLOOOO!!??

I have experienced many unexplainable (as we would know it now) events but we still don't know how our total brains work.

Saver, I think you need to find something to do to make you happy.

Breathe. Calm down. And for the love of God, get off of the computer and experience the great outdoors..!

EXCUSE YOU?

I (and quite a few others I relate with)¦nbsp; make a pretty successful living out of chatting on the obscure and enlightened and we're quite happy l...Something making you think differently?

CAN YOU SAY THE SAME? ;D

  This reminds me of a similar topic from a couple of years ago about northerners/New Englanders being mistaken for ghosts while frollicking on Florida's beaches...

  always makes me LOL..!

Nope.
