Ghost Of Author Agatha Christie Caught On Camera

[naomi24]

//A museum is said to be haunted by whodunnit writer Agatha Christie’s ghost.

Staff in the author’s hometown claim that Christie’s books are mysteriously knocked off the gift shop’s shelves when no one is around.
A ghostly apparition of a woman has also been caught on camera — and CCTV has filmed leaflets being apparently hurled around.//

The staff seem to be in agreement but the camera image looks a bit suspicious to me so who knows? A hoax to drum up business … or something more?

No idea what you mean at 14:43. I am happy with my post.

I'm sure.... but I am sure you can also appreciate, that if you have no proof to post... this is nothing more than "I know, and you don't".

[naomi24]

Pixie, I don’t believe georgesgirl offered her experiences as ‘proof’, although on a personal leve, they are of course to her. And who’s to say she’s wrong? It’s all a bit like removed posts in AB really. Now you see it, and poof! Now you don’t - and not a trace to be found. You know damned well those posts existed but try proving it.

I assume you’re not lying when you claim to have experienced that for which you have no explanation so what is your conclusion? Did they really happen? Or were you delusional - or perhaps mistaken? I really think it’s a great mistake to limit - or worse still - to silence - discussion for want of ‘proof’. Science would be in a sorry state indeed without the curious.

Ichkeria, I too think Agatha bumped Poirot off deliberately - but, knowing Poirot as well as I do, she did it in such a bizarre manner that it left a bit of a sour taste - to me at least. That aside, our Aggie seems to have had a fascination with the supernatural - perhaps a product of the age in which she lived.

AC did indeed bump Poirot off, and had wanted to do so for a long time, as she felt he restricted her writing - a bit like how Conan Doyle came to feel about Sherlock Holmes:

[naomi24]

Indeed, brainiac. Each a 'victim' of his/her own success.

[pixie374]

Naomi, I never ever used the words delusional or lying. Those were your words.
Neither have I ever tried to silence anyone. I don't see a narrative as "proof". That's all.

[naomi24]

They were indeed my words, pixie, - absolutely - an they're words I use consistently in discussions of this nature. I'll ask again. To what do you attribute your experiences?

[pixie374]

Honestly, if I knew naomi, I would have said already. There was another person there too, and we both saw it and just looked at each other. The most likely explanation, much as it doesn't seem so to me, is mass delusion- a trick of the mind affecting more than one person. Maybe it was a ghost ... but I have no reason to genuinely believe they either exist, or that that is what it was. So, I don't know- and I am not willing to pretend I do.

[naomi24]

Pixie, what leads you to believe it was, what you call, 'mass delusion'? Why might it have been?

[pixie374]

I'm not sure I "believe" it, naomi... to me, it was 100% real and did happen. But that is always the case with delusions. As I said, I have thought of as many reasonable and unreasonable explanations as I can manage. And this is the only one that I know for a fact, actually even exists. So, going by logic alone and not my own feelings... that would have to be most likely. Even though I don't like it :-)

[naomi24]

Strange that rather than consider the possibility that something beyond your world view is possible, you conclude that you were delusional. Okay.

[pixie374]

Well, I clearly haven't, as I have said repeatedly that I don't know the explanation.
Logically, that is the only explanation that is proven to exist. Putting words in my mouth, doesn't mean I said them...

[naomi24]

I haven't put words into your mouth. I read your post.

[pixie374]

It seems not.... you came to the conclusion that I decided I was delusional. Either you didn't read, or didn't understand it.

[naomi24]

//to me, it was 100% real and did happen. But that is always the case with delusions.... //

That's what you said and that's what I read.

[pixie374]

Maybe try reading the rest? I'll repeat... I don't have an explanation, I have tried and I genuinely don't know and won't pretend to. Whether it is a ghost, a psychological thing or something else...
I don't know, but there is only one possible explanation that has actually been properly proven. Hopefully that makes more sense now.

[naomi24]

I've read the rest.

//So, going by logic alone and not my own feelings... that would have to be most likely. //

That^ later statement confirms the first.

[pixie374]

If you think so :-) night x

[naomi24]

I can't think how it says otherwise ...

Night.

[georgesgirl]

How can I give 'proof' when I saw it with my own eyes. I didn't have a camera with me!! Just because you pixie think it's 'mass delusion; (whatever the hell that means) does not mean I was delusional. I saw that I saw and it wasn't scary and I will never forget it and I know it was a spirit because the person was dead. I believe many people have had such experiences too, but a lot will not admit it. I am only doing so on here because I am anonymous and don't care if others think I'm delusional because they don't know me. I think your argument is strange, it doesn't make sense. Either you saw something or you didn't!
