Well halloween is fast approaching and so are supernatural stories and people dressed as ghosts. I'm just curious if anyone believes in ghosts or anything supernatural for that matter.

As for me



Oh and if any of you have any incident where you think you have seen a ghost could you please share, would love to know.

Why is there a third option? Either you do or you don't. I don't.

I don't have a reason not to. I'm not 100% since I don't have enough personal experience but I have various second hand accounts of friends.

Supernatural is an odd word. The literal meaning of the word is something impossible because anything that exists cant be more real than what is real or more natural than nature so I prefer to think of the word for the currently scientifically unexplained.

I have conflicting opinion. The science guy in me is saying there isn't but I know a lot of people who have had or claim to had encounters with ghosts. I can't overlook the fact that millions of people report ghost sightings and at the same time I can't ignore the fact that ghosts don't exist in the scientific world.

I love hearing stories about it, but does anyone have concrete evidence these things exist? In my experience, people who believe in it do so because they want to.

Then you don't. Saying something is possible is not the same as believing it.

Well this is quite a hard one.

Because for one I am more of a spiritual person than i am religious.
So I would have to say yes I do believe in that kind of stuff.

But at the same time I am still a little skeptical about it.

Yes... A spectre is haunting Europe -


More on topic: an adamant 'no'.
I like supernatural symbolism, themes of ghosts and witchcraft across different cultures, and the fictional concept of magical sciences. It's interesting to study and to base media on (I programmed a game about a witch earlier in the year, lol).
But I don't believe at all in the supernatural except as a concept that scares people.

No way to tell if ghosts exist or not, so I'm undecided. I think they do not exist because no supernatural stuff has ever happened with me, although I may be wrong. Still, its better not to believe in something if there's no proof for it.

I recently wanted to check out some supposedly haunted places so I can decide for myself whether I believe ghosts exist or not.

And after a couple of friends and I spent a night strolling through a graveyard and other areas of what's supposed to be the most haunted city in my state and not noticing anything that might be considered paranormal, I'm not very convinced that they even exist.

There are still some other nearby haunted areas that I still plan to check it out that could change my mind.

There is a certain mystery and thrill behind the subject that intrigues me a lot.However, believeing it would be a stretch, I mean I love the creativity behind some supernatural beings and cryptozoology is something I really wanted to explore deeply at one point but I just see no real credibility that could convince me to believe all of this.
This doesn't mean I completely deny the idea of supernatural beings existing, but mere second hand stories are not enough to sway me to believe any of it at this point.

Well, I believe more in ghosts than in what Hillary Clinton says to be honest

I can't say that I believe in ghosts, but I'm open to the idea. It would be silly to draw any strong conclusions based on something you can't be sure about.

our senses are not perfect they can be prone to errors like illusions, ghosts are more likely to be hallucinations and schizophrenic people like me are proof of it, sure im still scared of ghosts but thats just because of humanity's gene pool not yet removing that primitive genetic memory like fear of ghosts or supernaturals

I enjoy hearing stories about the supernatural, because it's fascinating. Why people believe things is often as fascinating as the story themselves. For myself, I look at ghosts as an unexplained phenomenon rather than an entity like the soul. Similar to how a ufo, does not actually mean aliens.

I mean technically we do derive from stardust. Stars that went supernova spewed out massive clouds of matter rich gas. These got caught in orbit around the Sun and formed planets including the Earth. Life arose from the Earth and eventually evolved until we had humans. So yeah in a sense humans can be traced back to stardust.

Or better yet, here's Neil DeGrasse Tyson to explain it to you.

I don't believe in the supernatural, even though I am into occultism and the supernatural, which might sound somewhat contradictory. I have tried Ouija boards for example, but nothing has happened, nor have I had any other experiences that would lead me to believe that ghosts or spirits or what have you exist.
