I have had some strange experiences that I can't rationally explain. I have always been intrigued by the supernatural. I've never seen a 'ghost' but I've belive I've felt and sensed their presence. I want to hear your thoughts and/or experiences!

This phenomenon is a world wide accepted subject. The question is 'do you believe in ghosts'? In one word, can say no. But it took a long time to say that. I have heard of stories and read of the same in various articles and movies. But, in reality, it cannot be possible. All are depend upon our faith and belief. If think little open and connect with various aspects, all are our imagination only. Various psychological aspects to be considered and a few words or a paragraph is not sufficient to explain all. As a personal opinion, it is a state of mind and nothing else.

Nice to know you had this experience, all can't see or experience their presence. in my opinion-ghosts and spirits do exist, they live in a different plane, they are usually harmless; though some are naughty.. I have 2 harmless ghosts in the very old drumstick-tree in our back yard, i have seen them. Last night one of them talked to me while i was asleep. Professor

I think I may have experienced it before. Same as you, the paranormal interests me a lot and sometimes, I also would like to find out more about it, though maybe I may be a little bit scared. There was once, the day after my grandmother was cremated and I just came back from my hometown where she was cremated, back to my country, I was sitting in the living room, watching my TV. I looked into my room and there was the chair. You may think that there's nothing wrong but after a little while, I noticed that IT SEEMED TO HAVE CHANGED ITS POSITION TO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!! There was nobody in the room! When I told my mother about it, she just smiled and said nothing. At that time, I was still small and that could be the reason why I can experience these supernatural phenomenons. Children can feel these things and are more sensitive to it. Ever wondered why sometimes children can cry for no reason? You know the answer to it.

hey there..likewise..the paranormal and supernatural has always intrigued me. i too have never seen a ghost but wish i could or will in the future. i am quite brave but i guess if i really come across one, think i may feel a little scared. the most recent experience of mine: i surf late into the nights, till about 3am. several days a week someone just bangs at my door around 1am. those i have neighbors next door and a kinda naughty kid downstairs who rings my bell during the day time just to get his kicks, don't think it could be either of them.the kid definitely wouldn't be up till 1am and come up and bang my door right. also sometimes, i feel this place maybe a bit haunted. now i don't know if that's my overactive imagination speaking or if its really true. sometimes, i feel a weight on my bed as though someone is putting some weight on my bed or maybe someone sitting on my bed. when i open my eyes, trhe feeling is gone. don't know if i was dreaming... another experience from my colleges days: when i was in my hostel college, we had 4 floors and the water dispenser was on the ground floor and my room on the 4th. except for the warden and the dining hall and kitchen. also the boys hostel was attached to ours so the whole of the first floor was the boys hostel though that section was blocked. so girls were staying only from the second floor upwards. one day i went to fill water around midnight or maybe even later. the hallways aren't so deserted as many a times girls used to study late into the nights. so as i was filling water i heard the trinkerling of an anklet. some of the traditional indian women wear anklets with bells on it. so i heard that sound very close by. and as i said earlier, except for the warden on the ground floor, the 1st floor was the boys hostel. and the sound was too close by to have come from the second floor. kinda gave me goosebumps then. so i quickly filled my water and went to my room.. so what were some of your experiences? would love to hear it.

I've never seen or experienced their presence before but as a Buddhist, I'm always feeling compassionate towards these suffering entity and always prayed that they will be reborn into a happy realm
