Ok, that isn't bats then. One house I lived in had strange goings on. Occasionally, as I was in the kitchen at the sink at one end, at the other end of the kitchen by the door, plates or cups that were nowhere near the edge would inexplicably end up smashed on the floor. I never saw them go when I was looking directly at them, it was just out of the corner of my eye when I would see them slide off the worktop. I used a spirit level to check if there was a slope on the work counter, but there wasn't. I tried not putting anything near the edge, but things still slid off. Then on other occasions I would smell pipe tobacco burning, but no one in the house smoked. It was a dreadful house anyway, and we moved out after 11 months.

Go through every possible explanation for the noises from central heating, house settlement, bird stuck in chimney to radio left on somewhere. If you can discount every normal explanation you're left with paranormal, it still doesn't mean its a ghost.

I read something once where a couple tried everything to identify the sound of a ghostly rooster crowing. Eventually they found an old watch in the loft that had an alarm that was the sound of a rooster.

If by "ghosts" we mean people who have died living on in some way and able to influence events in the material world, then they clearly don't exist.

Ghosts are a perennial part of the human psyche. If they existed anywhere outside the human mind we would have proper scientific proof by now.

I don't believe in that sort of thing however I had an experience last weekend which scared the crap out of me! I'd been out drinking till the early hours on the Friday night and it was late on Saturday night so I was quite sleep deprived by then, I fell asleep on the sofa watching a film for what must have only been a couple of minutes and woke up to see a young girl in a red coat stood in the shadows in the hallway who then walked off through the door, it looked very real but being a rational type I put it down to a hypnapompic hallucination from the lack of sleep and part of whatever dream I must have been having. Felt very uneasy the rest of the night though!!

If you rely on the presence or sounds of a spirit to know their there your ultimately leaveing big gaps in any knowledge you may have of ghosts.. A medium does not need to rely on a presence or sound as there might not be none to pinpoint or see a ghost meaning ghosts could be present more than people realise just that we can,t see them and when we do its only because they allow us to do so, thou a medium can overide that, thats my view on ghosts any paranormal activity will be associated with the past in various ways.. Its 13 years since my mum used her room and then went into a home, its nearly 8 years now since her passing but for the last few years on one or two occasions through the year I can smell the nurseing home in there So I class her as a visitor which I quite like really keeping her eye on me and home.

Whatever you are genuinely experiencing the very least probable explanation is that a once oxygenated brain now has greater powers than it ever did and can now directly interact with tangible matter whilst at the same time be completely non detectable by humanity

Ghosts are purely a manifestation of the genuinely fertile human imagination possible only from a living brain x

See could be an interesting concept ?

Either a

It has substance that can reflect light.

B

It has substance that can emit light

C

It has ability to interact with living brain neurons to induce an illusion of image

Most ghost "sightings" contradict the above

Ie

I saw it with my own eyes but could not take a picture or my friend could not see it

That rules out visible light and leaves c

C is non distinguishable from an optical illusion or an imagining yet the viewer insists they "saw" it

But I have seen things that changed my mind, I have seen a man who tipped his glass to me in a pub in Evesham, this was a man I knew slightly, a man in a walking cage who was always with his wife except this one occasion, a man whom I was not aware died a week or so before I saw him, I have seen taps come on, not partially full on!! And no one around?

I have seen a little boy dressed in shorts and school cap waiting on the side of the road, very sixties!!

Except it was a Sunday pouring with rain and in the naughties!!

I don't believe in it myself, but as of about 3 weeks ago, everytime my 2 year old is in the bath, he points into the hallway and starts cowering while covering his eyes.

He says 'look, a ghost. Go away ghost' Even as a non believer, it has been a little unnerving

here is the exciting part what you have experienced , I say experienced because we have no idea if it is light that has convinced your mind or other factors , so what you have experienced certainly wasn't a once living thing come back so what was the real cause for your conviction now that's the real question we should quest to know an answer not be satisfied with "a ghost did it end of"

once living brains do not come back and interact with living brains , but what is the real cause of such conviction ?

I've seen 3 dead people but when I went to talk to them they were not they were exact doppelgangers

And a vast number more of so called ghostly figures and sounds when properly scepticaly investigated all had normal explanations

Ghosts are a human invention with zero data to substantiate even their possible existence , and a lot to illustrate the possibility is less than doubtful

It is usually impossible for a person who is convinced they experienced a dead human brain to perform the required investigating from all angles thus to jump to the implausible and make strong conclusions is more a matter of anthropological psychology than ghost hunting x

hang on , really ??

So on the plausibility scale , you go for the most widely unlikely above any other unlikely scenario ?

both are unlikely however one is vastly less plausible than the other

In this particular area of ghosts, poltergeists etc, there isn't yet, I think, any changes to the major laws of physics that have been caused by credible evidence published in any of the reputable literature. From having an open mind, it's certainly feasible that there has been though.

"Until you have seen a ghost up close and personal then you can be sceptical, once you seen one there’s no going back.

sadly no one ever has x many many people are convinced they have x

The human brain is very convincing with its illusions xxx

Just because you havn't witnessed such a thing and choose not to believe doesn’t give you the authority to catergorically say they don’t exist or tell other people that they are full of shit. "

I am 51. I believe Father Christmas exists and I saw him last Christmas delivering my presents.

Do you think you can stay categorically that Father Christmas doesn't exist and that I am full of shit?

For me, it’s not a matter of believe or not believe. I saw one, which cannot be explained away and I was with two mates who saw her clear as day too from about 6 feet away from us. Years later when I met my ex wife, I started to tell her the story, she stoped me midway and told me the exact same story I was about to tell her, she’d seen the same ghost years earlier when she was a young girl and she had been with her friends too. It was in a very old derelict house that had been left to rot since the war. It was open to the elements, was only accessible over a school fence as it was overgrown with brambles etc, the stairs had collapsed inside. Me and my mates had gone in for a look round, it was literally a rotten shell. When we came out andxsat on the fence there was an old lady staring out of the window next to the front door, she didn’t say anything and she definitely could not have been inside that house and certainly wouldn’t have been in the same spot 20 years earlier when the ex saw her. I know what I saw and I know it was a ghost, end of story.

I used to work in an old factory ran by a friend of mine. Very relaxed atmosphere. So I was there one evening with him . This place was built in 1800s and had 3 floors. Only the middle level was in use work wise. We'd already been to the upper floor ( abandoned) and found WW2 ration books in drawers weeks earlier. But in the cellar there were old drawings of Pentagrams and inverted crosses all over the walls . This one night we ventured down there. We turned the radio up that was on the middle floor so we could still hear it . However when we got down to the cellar it went off. I went back up and it came back on . I went back down and it went off. This happened 3 times . We thought Fuck this and left the cellar . As we were about to leave and go home we went to turn the radio off . We heard just static and just I was about to unplug it a voice said " get out " . We did , swiftly and I never went there again. This is a true story and I even told the local paper about it but they didn't believe us. I think it was around 1996 time . I swear on my mother's grave this is true !!

At the end of the day those who claim to see ghosts have to decide which of the following is most likely to be true.

1. That they saw something for which there is a rational explanation of which they are unaware or experienced an optical illusion.

2. That they saw a person who had died and come back to life.

Given that option 1 is immeasurably more likely than option 2, I find it difficult to understand how people can be so convinced that what they saw was a ghost.

No, but again I have to ask what is more likely

1. That you have mis remembered what happened 22 years ago.

2. There was a ghost.

As we have lots of evidence of fallible memories from events long ago but no evidence of ghosts. I conclude 1 is more likely.

Of course you think you remember it correctly, but it's still far more likely you are wrong about that than that there was a ghost.

People are quite often proven to be wrong about things they were convinced they had witnessed. No one has ever proven ghosts exist.

Considering acid and other substances can cause you to see things that aren't there with frightening realism, just by altering your brain chemistry, I'm pretty sure most "ghost" sightings are down to a brain fart or lack of sleep etc.

Unfortunately even when we have had an experience, it will not typically form a memory that is fixed, like granite, so that it remains perfectly preserved just as it was. When we recall it, it becomes open to evolution, so new information, opinion or any data updates it. It becomes a new memory each time. We may think of them as old memories but they become newly updated memories of an older memory/experience.

Remember also that our eyes can have perfect ability to access visual data around us, pass it to our brains but still be blind. Even if not blind, all incoming sensory data is filtered by our cognitive abilities, which transform, interpret, distort etc, by parts of your brain not responsible for vision. With ongoing manipulations by our brains, much of it outside of consciousness, when we think we have simply 'recorded' visual data, replayed it later, it is not an accurate replication of any event.

I can trust what someone tells me is their experience of a ghost event but still understand it within the context.

Three "experiences" stand out for me as inexplicable. One in particular was very odd and can't be put down to what I think is the most likely explanation (after all others have been exhausted) of energy replaying itself like a recording. I don't think what I saw was the spirit of a dead person though.
