Do you believe in ghosts? Do you believe that the people who have passed on have potential to walk among us? I believe that there is more out there on another level that we don't know about. I believe in ghosts, demons and saints, I believe that they can affect us in different ways in our lives and that there is always something in our lives. I believe there are forces that protect us as well as forces that try to cause harm. I think that there are influences in our lives that we may not be aware of. What are your thoughts?

Yeah i believe in ghost or spirits and their existance in this realm.Deamons are also real and angels.I think that these supernatural beings must exist as both are mentioned in the bible and if they are in there then they must exist if not the bible would be incorrect.I have someone that is a friend that actually saw what they though to be a ghost and i beleave them as their have been so many sitings all over the world in almost evey part in recored history.

It is such a cool phenomenon and they are recorded so far back in history it is so neat to see. One of my friends went wandering in a cemetery with his camera and came back with some awesome pictures of something that I believe are spirits on the photograph.

Yes, I believe there are ghosts and paranormal activities happening anywhere we go. I have not experienced seeing one though, but it does not stop me from believing that they do really exist. All you have to do is have an open mind if you are ready to face and have an encounter with them. I have several friends telling me stories about what they feel and see and it just frightens me to hear such stories. I guess some people are just gifted with a "third eye". However, it involves a lot of understanding and discovering before seeing the "unnatural world".

I totally agree that there is paranormal activities and I have experienced it before. It was a very frightening experience but it opened my eyes to a whole new world that is out there and that we can connect to in so many different ways.

Mrs. Makawak- I do believe in ghosts, demons, and other non-embodied entities. I love watching Ghost Hunters because of their take on such paranormal activities and I think they have provided some solid evidence for such things. My mother had an experience when I was just an infant with a spirit. For about two weeks straight she saw a woman in Victorian style clothing hovering over the landing of our stairs. Our house then was quite old and was a brothel/saloon at one time so the stair case came down the wall, stopped on a large landing, and then turned to the main floor with a few more steps down. Well, a neighbor friend of my mom said my mom was just seeing things because my dad was working overnights. The spirit disappeared at that point in time, but a week later my mom fell down the stairs whilst carrying me and landed on her back in the very spot where the spirit had been standing for two weeks straight prior. It's how my mom ended up with her back injury because in the fall she twisted in order to avoid landing on me. My dad later pulled up the carpet to find a large knot in the wood that my mom had caught herself on when coming down the stairs. I believe that spirit came to her as a warning. I've had several experiences where the paranormal are concerned and those have been eye opening experiences for me. In our one home my husband and I did EVP work because we kept hearing a child cry, but I was still pregnant so we didn't have any children in the house yet. What we got on EVP were answers that there was someone there and there was an infant nearby. We only ended up with two EVP sessions, and after that things began to quiet down. My guess is that with some entities they simply want you to recognize that they are there. Now, I do believe that there are some who just go through their daily routine and cannot interact with us. However I would recommend that anyone dealing with the saints learn a bit about them before just performing an invocation. Wonderful discussion topic. Namaste-Anora

Yes I do believe in them. I believe that they exist among us and whatever, we do, they are watching. Some help us when we are in times of difficulty but some try to cause harm, like what you've said.

God indeed created some creatures, rough and smooth. It has been described in al qur'an and as a Muslim, I strongly believe.

i do believe in ghosts, spirits, souls. they can affect and influence in our daily living. dont you know that the first creatures here in earth are not humans. they are spirits/souls called the djinns. well, i believe not just because my religion is Islam but also based on my experiences and thoughts. God created the djinns before man. they are invisible but live like humans who eat, procreate, die.... it is also said that the spirits or the djinss were created to accompany humans so everyone has it. it is somehow called dualism, the physical and the spiritual thing. it's your twin. when you feel lonely, think twice, because you are not alone, you have with you your spirit/soul who guides and knows you since birth. those spirits can either be good or bad. in effect, people can both do good and bad. we must rule ourselves to go to the right way. also that is why some people can see things which others cant because of the figment of their imagination. i believe, it is those spirits or souls within us who push extraordinary things. they actually possess supernatural powers to do things which a human can't, that is why sometimes, some people feel they are special, gifted, born with power, with opened third eye.....

I believe there could be ghosts but I believe that alot of what people see are demons. Demons can mascarade as ghosts and you don't really know what you are dealing with. Is it a demon or is it a human spirit you really and truely don't know. I used to be a ghost hunter myself for about 6yrs. I was really into spirits and didn't think they were demons at the time. I think however when you are going into the field of the paranormal you better be careful because you could open the wrong doors and bring demons into your home. You don't know what to expect. That's why I stoped ghost hunting. I think i'll just stick to the ghost tours and watch Ghosthunters on TV.
