Have you had a ghostly encounter?

[Muniflex]

To be entirely honest, I think the concept of a ghost is impossible. When you die, you die. Game over. Saying that you come back as a spirit isn't that plausable - How many people in the world have died? Wouldn't it be a little... crampt? Just think of Africa, and all the people that die there daily.

Mostly I think it's just you wanting to believe it, and as such you do believe it. Take for example the dream one - It's not that hard to wake up and think that your dream has actually happened, as that's just your brain playing away whilst you're asleep.

Besides that, if it's a spirit and they're dead or whatever... how is it even remotely possible you'd be able to feel anything they do to you... (inbetween them knocking into the 500+ billion other dead people, all pushing and proding you at the same time)

On a side note though, more or less backing down on everything I just said, when my grandad died in a car crash a few years back, the first time I slept at his house after his death, I dropped my phone on the floor. When I picked it up, a full telephone number had been entered (which most deffinatly wasn't there at the time of dropping, as the keypad was locked). I phoned the number, and it didn't accept incoming calls - I checked on the internet for what the number was for a few weeks, found nothing. I guess it could of been "luck" that it hit the floor and typed in 11 numbers, with a correct Leeds area code and a working phone number, or it could of been something else.

Either way though, I standby my first comment, and as much as we're made to believe - I don't.

Being scared of people, is more needed then dead people. Real people hurt, dead ones don't.

I'm happy to debate what I just said, as it's an interesting topic.

The thing is you don't die and come back as a ghost. You just don't go 'towards the light'. Usually it is because something happened in life that means they don't want to leave a certain place. Or if they died in a horrible way, like murder they stay around until justice has been done. That is why the earth is not 'crampt' because the majority go throught to 'afterlife' or whatever you believe.

Also my mum used to say my sister (as a baby) used to act pretty perculiar when she was alone, like reaching out and grabbing the air saying hello as if she was speaking to someone.

That is just an ordinary baby thing mate.

When I was in London Dungeons on the ride thing there was this ghost ontop of the guys head where they fire the shotgun and it was lieing down and smileing.

I threw something at it and it disappeared. It was well weird!

Ironically the ghost train at Blackpool Pleasure Beach is haunted by an ex-employee who worked on the ride.

Pretty much agree with you there. The telephone scenario could be many things such as you typing the number and forgetting, someone typing it and forgetting to clear it etc.

Two family members have died in my house, so we've had quite a few "ghostly" encounters. The most recent one was on Boxing Day I believe when my 2.5 year-old niece said "ghost" as a statement twice on the monitor randomly, when she's pointed them out on TV before. They say the young are susceptible to these kind of things.

Um not particularly, what's the worst a dead thing could do to you?
