what makes u believe in ghosts?

nothing

I've seen them, and was yelled at by one once.
That was enough evidence.

>Be me
>have three children
>wake up in the middle of the night to get a drink
>see child on toilet in nightie, her head down
>say "Go back to bed, little one"
>check in on children after I drink my water
>all three in bed, none wearing a nightie
>no child on toilet, all doors locked
>wake up wife, search through house
>no fourth child
Still have no other explanation for the ghost girl.

You just woke up or were sleeping,it was Dmt probably

I feel like ghost are just a mental state we don't understand yet.

DMT as in Dimethyltryptamine? Definitely not. I had been sleeping, so I am prepared to write it off as still being in a dream-state, but it was still pretty full on.

My grandmother died back when I was in school. It was nearly finals and I couldn't take off to go to the funeral. Later when I was down visiting family and staying in the house, a little mechanical bird in a cage we got her that she had hanging on the light next to her chair started chirping.
I looked up and a faint mist started drifting in for a few seconds before fading out.

It was the only time that happened and I'm convinced she was just saying goodbye.

Seeing spirits in a Lakota Yuwipi ceremony.

one time when I was very, very young, I lost a marble under the couch. I reached my hand under to look for it, and when I pulled my hand back, an old, black hand reached out for me, groped around a few times, then pulled back under. I wasn't afraid, but I watched it very warily because I knew it was wrong. Then I went and told my mom, and she was confused because I never lied but she explained that this could not have happened and there was nothing under the couch.

As I grew up, I eventually decided this must have been a dream. Many years later, as an adult, I recalled this dream to my mom, and she told me that it had not been a dream, and she remembered it vividly, because it had scared her, and in fact she'd made sure that couch was thrown out immediately, because they'd bought it used and the seller had told her that an elderly black woman had died while sleeping on it.

I'd prefer not to believe in ghosts, but I do.

ghosts are real and i cant tell between my psychotic hallucinations and actual ghosts anymore and i hate it. the only thing that confirmed it was real was the fact that everyone else witnessed it with me.

I don't know if I necessarily believe, but there does seem to be an awful lot of anomalous evidence to suggest... something. Maybe it's spooks, maybe it's all the technology frying our brains and messing with cameras. I don't fucking know.

Death is a hell of a mental state.

fuck, can't relax around blacks even when they're dead wtf

After my grandfather died, my father bitched about him moving into the house with us. And by "bitched" I mean "complained uneasily". He didn't like to talk about it, but sometimes he did anyways. Apparently telling his father to MOVE OUT wasn't working.

I never saw anything but my father being a bit crazy. That said, I've seen ghostly figures in other contexts, so I dunno what to think. *shrug*
