Have You Ever Seen A Ghost?

A question most of us may not be able to answer with 100% confidence. Whether this be because it was dark, we were half asleep or we just may not completely be sure what it was.

This includes myself, my only experience with a ghostly figure was from when i was much younger. It was the middle of the night but for some reason, my eyes were open and I was awake. I witnessed the emergence of a figure in the room, a figure resembling that of a woman but with a fine consistency whereby you could just about make out the outline of objects hiding behind her as she wandered around the room. The figure wore what seemed to be a polka dot dress, until she glanced across to me and spotted me watching her. She slowly moved over to the bed and in a gentle movement, her face came right up to my own as it gently passed through me; the figure was then never seen again.

I was strangely calm at witnessing this and easily fell back to sleep. Due to many factors, this could easily be part of a dream, or a trick of the light in an otherwise dark room. One thing is for sure though, I, like I've mentioned earlier, cannot be 100% confident on what happened and what I saw.

One thing to note however is that several years later when I was speaking to my mother about this, she also mentioned the fact that she also saw a woman in a poka dot dress when she was a child, just wandering about. More so, we had a friend of the family that had died before I was born, which always used to wear poka dot clothes.

Strange stuff, but overall I am still left skeptical on the whole aspect of ghosts.

Ghosts. Do you believe?

Ghosts.. Mysterious beings that linger in the darkness, but what is your stance on such things. Do you believe they exist or are they merely created by an overactive imagination.

The sceptic inside me always pulls me towards the latter. We see ghosts only in dark spaces (the viewing is therefore disoriented, unclear and could be mistaken for something else). There is a certain mystery to the dark that powers our imagination and shapes what we see and noises we hear, can be exaggerated to something more.



Thinking more openly however, ghosts may well exist. They always tend to appear in places that have a history, or a person who may of lived there, who would have a good reason to linger about. Using modern reading devices to also monitor temperature and electro magnetism these days (forgive me if thats wrong), also push this further to become somewhat believable.

How about if ghosts are merely another creature living on Earth which we have yet to understand or find, or could they be the shadows of people from another dimension? (perhaps a little too far, or is it?)

I have seen a ghost myself many years ago but am still not fully convinced on the prospect. I guess public opinion on such a topic is divided, like many other things, but it makes you ponder..
