    It's interesting to see what people have to say. . .
    I actually voted no, (I'm a Christian), until I realized that Satan, is ,I guess, a sort of demon.
    Hmmmmm. . . . .

    Yes, I can read palms and sometimes I swear there are faces in the nights. It sounds stupid but true.

    Well, I am a 100% firm believer in ghosts/spirits (whatever you choose to call them).

    I have just had too many different experiences with them to not be anything but a believer. Then there are the experiences that other family members have experienced that make you believe.

    The house we all grew up in really had some stuff happen. Then there are incidents at other places (i.e. my Gettysburg moment - yes, I had one!).

    I try not to talk about it too much, though, because I swear people think I am crazy. Like I said, though, other people I know have had experiences, too.

    When I was talking to a co-worker about it a few years ago, my boss overheard and just said "Noooo". I looked at her and said "What would I gain by lying? I sure as hell don't want the attention over something like that!!".

    So, having said all that, again, yes I will say that I beleive!

    my house has a ghost, a young girl died here, and she likes to move things, we have never realy been bothered by it, because she just moves silverwear, opens drawers, moves keys, we once found all of our keys, cell phones and wallets in the freezer. verry strange seeings how we have a bowl on the oposite end of the house where all of that goes lol.

    I believe in the Otherworld. But since our perceptions of it are seen 'through a glass darkly' what I'd really like to know is if ghosts (spirits) believe in us.

The people out there that claim that personal experiences are not to be taken as evidence are the same ones that would sit on a jury and sentence a criminal to death based on eyewitness testimony, which they would call "rock solid evidence." Is this a double-standard or what? If it fits what they want to prove, yes, eyewitness account is perfect evidence.

    Well yes, but that's why they say the accounts are not to be taken as evidence...the mind makes patterns, it sees them in everything, the clouds, the cereal, the grass, rocks, trees...ooh, especially trees. I used to have a tree I thought was somehow a person or something, it was right outside my window and I thought it was sentient.

    I don't believe in Ghosts, or Faeries, but my mind isn't closed about them. I have other ideas that fall into similar lines...but I don't really think there's anything supernatural or paranormal. If there are ghosts, then they are natural and normal, and are meant to be here. Unless they are people who stayed because of un-finished business, and all that, but that seems so far fetched to me..

    I've always felt that ghosts/spirits basically never made it to the "other side" (wherever that is!) because of the way that they had died. Generally that would be in a tragic way. So, their souls are unsettled. Then I do believe that there are the ones that don't really realize that they are gone.

    I can't help it. As I've said before, just too many things have happened in my life and other mambers of my family. I can't be anything but a believer.

    Yes, I do believe in them, but I don't really think about them most of the times because the more you think, the more it becomes true and that makes me shiver.

    A friend once said, "I am paranormal myself!" I would go with that one.
    I sang of leaves, of leaves of gold, and leaves of gold there grew.

    I think if there is a fire one needs to exit to the left. Not seeing any ghosts though.

    No. There is no paranormal. There is only normal.

    Things we can't explain is regarded as Paranormal.

    But once explained - it is regarded as normal.

    Paranormal is the unknown. But when the unknown becomes known it is not paranormal anymore....

    And by and by my Soul return'd to me,
    And answer'd "I Myself am Heav'n and Hell :"
