have you every seen a ghost?

[loopyc]

whoops have you ever seen a ghost!

[Why??]

Not that I know of, but my hubbie thinks he has.

He was alone in the shop he used to manage after everyone had gone home, he had locked up and was just finishing off some bits and he turned to see someone standing on the stairs, then they were gone.

A few days later, the previous occupants came over to pick up some post and asked him if he had seen the ghost yet?

Spoooky! I went all could as goosebumpy when he told me.

No, but my grandmother was seen as a ghost by the later occupants of her last home.

I'm pretty sure I have. My Dad used to have a pub which was part of an old farm with the barns converted in to the cellars and said to be haunted. Dad used to hear the unmistakeable sound of metal barrels being rolled down the concrete floor when there was nobody else there. One night a friend was staying round and I was sleeping on the floor and had left the bedroom door open. I woke up in the night to the sight of a young girl standing outside the door looking at the plant that was on the shelf in the hallway outside the door. It may have just been a dream, I guess I'll never know but it felt extremely real and to this day I believe it was a ghost.

I have seen them my whole life. Some are grounded here and some come only in visitation. Why do you want to know, have you seen one? Amara x

Shortly after my Dad died over thirty three years ago I woke up to see him standing in the corner of my bedroom.I am sure it was not my imagination.He looked younger and was dressed in his working clothes, He seemed to wink at me and then he was gone.I have never seen him since. I think sometimes if it is someone close to you perhaps you do conjure up a vision to give you comfort ..I don't know. In the following years after his death whenever I used to go in his shed I could always smell pipe tobacco..Very strange !

Yep and I know it wasnt just my imagination because I was a passenger in my friends car and we were going down a country lane quite late at night it was very foggy, but as we passed under a small bridge my friend went to slam on her brakes and I put my hands up thinking we were gonna crash. The reason for this being just under the bridge there was a man. Me and my friend both saw it and both drew a picture of what we saw, the figure of a man no features but he was wearing a long coat and a top hat. He dissapeared about an inch from her bonnet.

Yes, but who would believe me? But the answer is most definitely yes.

[Greggo']

Sorry to inform you guys but there no such thing as ghosts...

My great uncle and his family had to move home after only living in their house for a short time. They felt something was 'not right' and had strange sensations such as people passing them on the stairs - also the dog would become extremely agitated and flee from the house on occasions for no good reason. They were a perfectly ordinary, down to earth family and never had problems before or after living in the house.

[loopyc]

thank you for all your answers im sure ive seen quite a few myself but thought i was just imagining things x

[Amara]

No you are not imagining it - and don't let anyone tell you that you are. Always trust your instinct, it is always right. Ignore your ego which tells you otherwise. Love and light Amara

sorry everyone, but it seems that greggo has unravelled one of lifes mysteries! Greggo, u may not think they exist but other do.

[irisred]

Just to add to the list yes I've seen ghosts. I've seen a cat, a little girl, a young man I believe to be my sister's boyfriend who had recently died, and others. Don't find them particularly scary, I find it strangely comforting.

My dad has a real sense for them and has seen ghosts and had very real experiences with poltergeists too.

So using your logic, Greggo, if you had lived your entire life without having seen a tree, or any reliable evidence of the existence of trees, that would mean trees simply don�t exist then, right?

So an Eskimo, for example, who had lived his whole life in the Arctic wastelands, and who had never actually seen a tree, could be as self-satisfied and as smug as you appear to be in saying, �Sorry, you guys, but there�s no such things as trees,� to all his Eskimo friends who�d travelled a bit and seen trees here and there.

Mmmm�

You know, I�m not sure your personal experiences and beliefs qualify you to tell other people what�s what. But then maybe I�m biased.

By logic.

Oh, and good manners.

professor greggo has spoken. i am sure his many years of painstaking resarch and study has made him come to this obviously definitive conclusion, so come on guys - its not just a statement based the assumption that ghosts are silly...

incidentally, it is interesting that so many ghosts are seen when the person is asleep....

We lived in a large old farmouse. We converted the unused attic rooms that at one time had been servants quarters, into an office. Early one morning my wife got up to work on the computer that faced the stairs. She heard the latch and the door open that was at the bottom of the stairs. She sensed someone there and thought it was me coming to see where she was.

When there was no response she looked, only to see a young man dressed in a farmers smock standing half way up the stairs who quickly disappeared.

Prior to that we'd had a party with guests staying over. My sister and husband slept in this room and she awoke to a terrible unexplained smell and an uneasy feeling. It might have been her husband of course but he slept through it. Our bedroom always had a very cold corner and we never liked using the room below for some reason and as for the cellar...

My young daughter at the time had some local friends over one night who had heard things about the house and was showing them around. I secretly went down to the cellar which was very dimly lit and stood in a recess with a sheet over me and waited. None of them noticed me until I moaned. I've never seen young girls move so fast or scream so loud.

i was a pub manager for some years and at the risk of sounding silly I have had many ghostly experiences, from smells to sightings to noises. Are pub was actually on the tele though i hid well out of sight.

The scariest moment was when I went to the flat door to let the dog in, and he went ballistic, ran the other side of the bar and started bangin his head on the glasswash door. I turned around and a " lady " was disappearing down the stairs me and my barman both saw the exact same thing.BTW this was in an empty apart from us locked pub.
