I believe people's energy gets left behind as soon as they die, then it leaves. I wouldn't want to think of loved ones roaming the world. It seems lonely. |

Ghosts are a real phenomena i know of a few verified accounts. I witnessed one phenomena myself. I was staying over at a friends. He had a bedsit in a big old house. The room had an an open fire we had lit. The room suddenly became very cold despite the fire and a smell of rotting meat filled the room. Then my mate explains that weird shit happens their and all the ppl have experienced stuff. He said one night him and another bloke both saw a glowing red orb/ball just floating in the kitchen. They saw it from the adjacent room and were freaked.That was enough. I left the next day
My mate decided to investigate a bit and found old plans at the library. The house was built on Hagden road, Watford back when Watford only had 3 roads! Crucially, it was built on the opposite side of the road to what was a workhouse. Turns out my mates house was built on land where they buried A LOT of ppl including loads of aborted babies. Explained everything. |

For me once you dead you are dead. The myth of ghosts was made up by religion to soothe the masses. We are all eventually going to end up back as stardust and become something greater. |

Nah, it's apophenia. Your mind fills in logical gaps for things it can't immediately explain and creates meaning out of meaningless data.
Same as seeing Jesus in toast and faces in clouds.

Absolutely as although I havent seen one a member of my family and a couple who are friends who have experienced a poltergeist in their house. They had to move house it was so bad.
I think there are good spirits and harmless ones.
As we would be rather ignorant to conclude that only humans exist. |

"you can see mediums and clairvoyants and they can tell you things from a loved one only you can know i find this rather spooky"
This
When I go to see a medium I let them do the reading
Them half way through I ask them to tell me something that only a loved one knows
The last time I went she told me my nick name what my late dad called me
How did she know that |

I agree with that but what if spirits can take on human form of your dead loved ones?
But one day you may change your mind ad if you really didnt believe, try using an ouija board. Although i wouldnt recommend it. |

"So called psychics and clairvoyants check you out on social media then dazzle you with the info you've already plastered over the Internet. My theory. "
But what if you have no social media
I always book under another name and never go to local mediums I snowsuit travel out of town to see them 40+ miles or further |

I believe some people experience what they think are ghosts but also that when people die that this is almost certainly the end of us - no soul,, not anything like a person, personality, identity etc that continues.
Our brains are complex organs and are perfectly capable of creating the possibilities that may be thought of as ghosts - so I'd expect we are the source of what we think we're perceiving as ghosts.

A ouija board is a game. It's a registered trade mark. The original idea was to contact your inner self then the exorcist came out and sales plummeted. It's used to be the No1 board game in America. |

For each one of those - which are very few. You get loads of 'mediums' that have pronounced the victim dead when they were still alive. One concerned mother actually died before she learnt that her daughter was taken instead of murdered.
The police don't hire psychic detectives, it's more often the families of the bereaved or missing. That way they would have been brought into the loop on the actions of the victim and knowledge of the case. Add in a bit of guesswork on top of that and I'm sure 5% of the time I'd be right as well. |

I've played in many times. People get caught up in terms hype and see things they want to hear. I'm not knocking your belief merely stating my opinion. |

Next time you use a Oujia board, blindfold all the players. |

It's like magick and witch craft in that you will never see it if you dont believe in it.
I don't believe in ghosts and have never seen one but I believe that people have seen them. |

Quote from an article on him:
"But of the roughly 100 cases Griffin claims he worked on, Griffin could not provide one example to ABC News to verify that he contributed to a police investigation. Even with the Kelsie Schelling case, when contacted, the Pueblo police department told ABC News they had “no official contact” with Griffin and were “unaware” of his investigation."

thats the problem in life when peeps not yourself here do not fully understand they go to extreme lengths to dismiss and undo the work
say he did not solve nothing or find nothing using him to highlight an unsolved case that becomes solved can only be a good think if you read a recent article in the new york times he is still working with the fbi so this can only be a good thing |

I don't dislike the guy, he's actually got a pretty sweet set up, he charges $90 a session!
But I found the New York Post (not Times) article, which still didn't provide any evidence. And the FBI is a serious organisation, he was hired by the family of the case in question and 'works' completely separately to their cold case investigation. Which hasn't actually been solved yet.
It is a good thing that he is helping bring these people justice. But that isn't solid, peer reviewed evidence of the paranormal.

It's easy, suggestion is a very powerful tool for those who are already believers.
If I start talking about a beach, then immediately your mind will picture a beach - a beach which is entirely personal to you - your 'mind beach'. If I start talking about generic features of a beach then it will reaffirm your belief that I am talking about your specific 'mind beach'.
Same with names and dates and places. If you're the kind of person to go to a psychic, then you're also naturally inclined to surrender more information to the psychic so the interaction can fit their bias to believe in psychics. |

"will an ouiji board enhance you chance of a meet??
Pushing the wee pointer to "YES" with all my might. Oops I mean the ghost is  "
I think a Ouiji meet would turn out the same as most other meets tbh. Getting all excited thinking you're going to have company but in the end you just have to play with yourself. |

As a young teen many years ago , I use to get a bus to my Saturday job washing cars at a dealership. Anyway one day I got on the bus. Busy as usual and the only seat was next to a young girl about my age. Now I was a shy young lad so sat down and looked ahead avoiding eye contact. After a few minutes the young girl touched my hand looked at me and said " find me ". She then took her hand away. After a few seconds I looked over and the seat was empty. She couldn't have left without me moving. Now whether it was a ghost or a young lads over imagination running wild I will let others judge. I never saw her again. |

I've had plenty of supernatural experiences that I haven't been able to explain, and some where there has been no doubt to what I have experienced. I have also caught on camera some pretty unexplainable things.
I'm still confused as to what I actually believe despite the above, but what I do think is that we don't have all the answers to our universe, and just because something can't be explained, or understood it doesn't mean it isnt real. |

Ouiji boards don't work. A guy did an experiment with a group of people, he put them all in front of a ouiji board and they did in fact spell out a string of words. But when he blindfolded them, nothing came out, the pointer just went to random places on the board |

Yep - I've heard and felt things that others have witnessed, and I've seen things but I've rarely had witnesses when I've seen things... often that's just been a flash in the corner of my eye, though I once saw the apparition of my family's old cat face on.
I just don't understand the logic behind it.  |

I wasn't a believer until recently.
At work we have a shared fridge in the office and I believe it to be haunted. Every time I put food in there it mysteriously dissapears a few hours later. Also when I look in there I get this weird chilling feeling, steamy breath etc etc - very creepy. |

"It depends what you think a ghost is.
"
This is the issue. I'm not ignorant enough to assume that our energy does not leave some kind of marker or footprint.
I just think it's a stretch to believe that 'energy' has an agenda. |

I had the opposite experience ... i went with 2 friends who are sisters ... she assumed we were all sisters and apparently their grampa was saying lots of things about me ... never met him in my life "
Did grandpa say "great ass"
Life in him yet  |

"It depends what you think a ghost is.
This is the issue. I'm not ignorant enough to assume that our energy does not leave some kind of marker or footprint.
I just think it's a stretch to believe that 'energy' has an agenda.
So are you saying people who don't share your assumption are ignorant ?"
Lol, no. It was more a conciliatory statement to not utterly dismiss something that I don't understand and others believe in. |

I lean more towards the view that they do exist..
When pregnant with me, my mum woke one night to see her deceased grandfather (whom she'd never met) praying at the foot of the bed.

"As a young teen many years ago , I use to get a bus to my Saturday job washing cars at a dealership. Anyway one day I got on the bus. Busy as usual and the only seat was next to a young girl about my age. Now I was a shy young lad so sat down and looked ahead avoiding eye contact. After a few minutes the young girl touched my hand looked at me and said " find me ". She then took her hand away. After a few seconds I looked over and the seat was empty. She couldn't have left without me moving. Now whether it was a ghost or a young lads over imagination running wild I will let others judge. I never saw her again."
you mention the only seat (available) was by the young girl so plenty of people on the bus, with plenty of people on the bus I,m wondering how she vanished and was not noticed doing so by others on the bus unless you were the only two left on at that stage of the journey surprised the driver never said anything.. nevertheless Interesting story.

"Explain the orbs in the picture of Mrs F 16th January 2017 on our profile"
This is completely true but I once saw a adult/sex film on Internet amateurs at home in the bedroom and I saw a number of orbs in that bedroom it was at night with the light on the people Involved had,t a clue what I could see its the only time I,ve ever seen them away from most haunted programmes so this film must be well watched along with the orbs.

Dunno. I'm positive that people who say they have paranormal experiences are already preinclined to believe. It's like an subconcious confirmation bias |

I just don't know. However the "ghosts" I've seen and heard behaved as they would in life and didn't appear to be aware of me so I have no reason to believe they're anything but a recording being played back.
The energy I've felt shortly after loved ones have died has been a different thing, nothing visual just a vibration next to you.

Tbh I've never felt anything. I think people ar comforted by the fact that loved ones may stay with them after death.
I actually think that sounds awful, and I'd hate the idea of someone lingering on. |

it's not the first time we have had orbs in our house and also had several other strange things happen once I was pushed out of the way by an enterty in the house |

In my experience they don't stay with you. In the days after death some energy lingers and can be felt, then it dissipates. Anything else is as I said like a recording being played back.
Its comforting for people to think they're being given signs or being guided by dead loved ones but I personally don't believe that's possible.
I find it interesting that many religions encourage us to believe in life after death but discourage us from trying to contact dead people. |

"you can see mediums and clairvoyants and they can tell you things from a loved one only you can know i find this rather spooky"
.
There's been a million pound reward for anybody that can show any clairvoyant or extra sensory, paranormal, supernatural ability.
Nobody has collected it in 30 years of trying.

I think it's like waves or echoes of life energy - they were once compressed and after death some people can feel or sense rather, the resonance of the sound (to mix a metaphor). I think all things vibrate and these vibrations can be felt and the life energy just vibrates away from our every day senses when someonea physical body dies. Their life energy doesn't die it just changes. |

"As we would be rather ignorant to conclude that only humans exist."
In order to avoid being ignorant I choose to also believe in Lamas.
But despite having seen a ghost or two, nope don't believe in them. |

Encountered a few things including a scary/violent haunting at my old flat I had at 18, everything was fine there for a year until my bf then moved in when I was 19 and stuff started happening with him as the focus. Even did a ouija board (I didn't want to touch it left it to my bed and his friends) and got the message "peara he's no good for you" come through. The only person to ever call me peara (even to this day) was my uncle that I was really close to and died in a car accident when I was 15. No one in the room at the time knew about that/him but it's what the board spelt, without me being anywhere near it, before a vase flew from window sill directly at my bf. A few nights later my bf woke me terrified, he said he saw a man standing over him that told him to "get out!" I asked him to describe him and he described my uncle even down to the clothes he was wearing when he died, this is a man he's never met, seen a picture of, or even heard of before doing the ouija board
I also saw my uncle not long after he died he appeared to me early one morning (after my dads grief related depression meant he moved out and separated from my mum for a short time) sat in my dads computer chair and he said "where's phil?" (which is my dad) I saw him on several occassions in the same place saying the same thing until my dad moved back home. The new neighbour next door to my mums claimed she was a medium and she came round to house and enquired about my uncle also described him to a T (a man she couldn't possibly know) and passed on that he couldn't be at peace until Phil (she'd never met my dad either) was back home where he belonged and he knew his family was safe.
All too wierd and too much of a coincidence for me not to believe |
