Do you believe in ghosts? Got any paranormal experience/s?

Hello. My position on ghosts is the same as the one I have on the Christian God: agnostic. I am not sure whether ghosts exist or not and I don't know much about anything to make any definitive statements.
As for paranormal experiences, I believe I have one. It was about 25 years ago. One night, I was lying in bed, couldn't fall asleep. Then suddenly, I couldn't move at all. I was so scared, I kept chanting the names of Gods and Goddesses in my mind. It was scary. I told a few people about it, and one of them said it was sleep paralysis. I don't think this truly explains it well, because while I was lying in bed, I was WIDE AWAKE. Then suddenly I couldn't move at all.
What about you?

Nope ghosts are not real. Science has no proof of it. The burden of proof is on the person making the claim they are real to provide evidence.
I'm talking real scientific evidence though, not that you heard a sound upstairs and nobody was there.

If you don't base your beliefs about the world on science what do you base it on instead? Science is the best thing we have partner.

One time I really got freaked out.
I opened the door of my room, it was dark, I heard something that sounded like a fan but with a noise that sounded as if it was broken. It spooked me... The light switch is like 3 inches away from the door, so I decided to quickly turn the light and walk out fast.... When I saw where the sound was coming from I was relieved and pissed..... I have to buy a new fan. Mine is broken.

It's hard, nigh impossible, to obtain proof of what someone perceives as a supernatural experience.. I know people usually sound ridiculous when they describe theirs, but I've had a few myself. Sure, most of the time it's your own psyche playing tricks, but there are unexplainable things in the world

Agnostic on the situation because everything I witness is a hallucination so theres no reason to think anything anyone experiences is "real'.
But I do believe in an intelligent object/soul/god/mothership. The more time that goes by, the more I believe that the object/god/soul/mothership is ALL there is.
-------------------- Something there is mysteriously formed, Existing before Heaven and Earth, Silent, still, standing alone, unchanging, All-pervading, unfailing, I do not know its name; I call it tao. If forced to give it a name, I call it Great (ta). Being great, it flows out; Flowing out means far-reaching; Being far-reaching, it is said to return. It's just a shot away..

one time when i was a very young child i remember being in my old house and standing or sitting?at the bottom of my stairs, and i was looking at the top of the stairs at this old man who walked out to the hallway to the top of the stairs. he looked at me and smiled and told me some stuff i think. for a few minutes. then walked back down the hallway. my mom was home that day, and i was looking up to the second floor of an unscalable house with locked windows. i told her about him. and she was like WTF, went looking and there was nobody there.
she remembers it to this day aswell as me.
ghost? im not sure. i kinda think like maybe it was me from the future meeting myself in the past for a brief moment.
the man was nice. so maybe.
the old man upstairs... maybe it was god.. lol

Joe Molloy was my favorite poster on the shroomery. He was the only one that called out everyone on their bullshit. Lots of people who use psychedelics almost have this cult/ religious like mentality about them and when someone calls them out they get extremely defensive and angry.
I always said Terrence Mckenna would have been a great cult leader he practically did lead his own cult with his outlandish psychedelic beliefs that were complete dog shit. Stoned ape theory.

only problem is why aren't the apes we have evolving right now then? or better yet why didn't they evolve millions of years ago along with us, or deer, or other animals that eat them

Seems to me like I've seen you get all defensive and angry tons of times when someone has an opposing point of view. You have a real stick up your ass about psychedelics, constant generalizations and bringing them up for no god damn reason. I bet they raped you and now you can't look them in the eye.

I have been getting angry at posters lately. When this entire forum is filled with hippies that think all doctors are bad, pharmaceuticals are all evil, mushrooms are the solution to everything, ect. I do get pissed off by the end of the day.

I believe in the high-strange and have had a couple of experiences that really stand out to me. I also have a picture on my cell phone taken at a school for negro children that has a rather strange anomaly in it that isn't repeated in the previous or following photographs.
One experience I had was at a park across the street from an apartment complex I used to live in. The entire area was, previously, a civil war battlefield and this park had a few graves on it that were enclosed in a pretty iron fence with a few slabs of rock off to the side. I sat on one of these slabs, placed my head on my knees, and just...listened? I guess.
And I started to hear muted gunfire. Like it was far away and under water. I heard this for a couple of minutes before I put my head back up and started looking around. My first thought was that this had to be construction. That's the most logical conclusion but as I was walking out, I walked into the most distinct scent of sulfur I had ever encountered in an open space. Just as quickly as it was there it was gone. I actually walked around the same area attempting to get the smell again but no dice.
That was one of two instances of high strangeness I experienced in that park and I was very sad to see they had decided to tear it down and develop over it a few years later.

^Finally, a ghost story after three pages of nonsense 
I used to live in a pretty large house in the suburbs and I would always hear footsteps going up and down the stairs. When we first moved in it was really faint, I wasn't even aware of it until five years later when the ghost became more active. (I would later find out, after having moved out, that my parents would wake up hearing these footsteps in the middle of the night thinking a man had broken into our house. But nobody was found and they just shrugged the footsteps off.)
The final three months before me and the family moved out of the house was when the ghost became a lot more active. My door would open, sometimes slightly, other times all the way. I would fall asleep with the TV on only to wake up with it off. The footsteps were louder and the pace had increased.
One of my best friends was over and we were exploring the attic (we were young, exploring was fun). He left his shoes in the attic and came back to get them and found one shoe had been dragged across the room. Later he claimed to have seen shadows that night.
We found out the ghost lived in the guest bedroom when one day I observed that the guest bedroom door was always open. Weird, I know, but I just found this seemingly asinine detail very odd. I closed the guest bedroom door and I went to sleep. The guest door was found open that next morning.
My brother claims he heard someone whisper "hey!" in his ear, but I think he was high on mushrooms that day. I was really young, I didn't know what that stuff was (looking back as I type this I am 100% certain he was high and just fucking with me).
My dad also claimed to hear voices in the night but I'm not entirely sure about that either. He would only hear them as he was drifting off to sleep.
Most of these instances were very minor, but there was no doubt in my mind there was a presence in my house at the time. It didn't seem malevolent or anything - it minded its own business - but goddamn it was creepy as hell.
To answer the question: Yes. I do believe in ghosts.

There's a toilet in my friend's house where about 50 people have claimed to hear voices. There's only one window, really high up the wall so no one from the neighbour's house could see anything except wall through it. Mostly it's just been some wanker saying really perverted things, but the neighbours are nice and all of them are female.
I assume someone just sees the light go on and realises someone is in there, but where the hell they would have to actually be to have their voice heard is very odd. Unless they're hanging from the roof on bungee cord, they'd have to be in the neighbour's house but the voice always sounds like it's coming from inside the room. Whoever it is also can somehow identity physical details of whoever's pissing/shitting and says specific pervy things. When I was a little kid I thought it was a ghost and much as I certainly don't now, I still occasionally wonder how the fuck someone is pulling this off and why they bothered to over a period of about 20 years.
Yeah, shit ghost story.

A couple. I grew up with a very skeptical father which had shaped my views early on in life. Then around age 18, some, stuff, started happening around the house.
Some instances were as follows.
1. There was one night specifically where both my parents wake up because they see a shadow my height and build (6'1" 205+) standing in the doorway to their room watching them. They called my name several times to no answer, then the figured walks into the bathroom that was located off to the side wall so it dissapeared from view. At this point my dad grabs his guns and goes to see whats up. Nothing in the bathroom. Check all over the house. Nothing.
2. Little brother is playing drums in the guest rooms where majority of the activity had taken place (keep in mind my room was connected by a bathroom). We hear a loud crash from that side of the house and my little brother comes hauling ass to my parents room freaking out "someone pushed me from behind into my drum kit"
3. The "dreams" I had. Dream. A: I "wake up" in my dream laying on my back how i usually sleep. I can't move and I can see the outline of what looks like a small child, age fivish sitting "criss cross apple sauce" on my chest. There is an odd "head dress" not of feathers but made of some metallic material, almost like a crown? Think inca artwork that type of shit. I see it just grin at me. grinning and as the grin grows i become more and more paniced/nauseated. I start reciting "our father" which no idea why as I ditched religion all together. As i recite i can move my hand and i hook the little fucker in the mouth to get it off of me. As i put my hand in its mouth I swear to fucking whatever higher power created all of this. It felt real. as real as if you were to stick your hand in your mouth right this second and feel every little tooth and bump. I wake up having a seizure.
Dream B: Started the same but a different entity enters the room. Black shadowy and my height and build... walks through my door and as I turn my head to look at it it looks into my eyes with glowing red eyes, I wake up having a seizure.
Shit seems to like to break by itself in the house by itself too. After I find this out. I also find out why my family doesnt associate with my great aunt or her kin. She doesn't practice normal religion. More so peganism. Hers isnt so "light hearted" though.

I have no idea if ghosts are real or not. Maybe
I don't see why you would be agnostic to specifically the "christian god". I straight up think the christian god is bullshit. I'm agnostic or ietsistic to god(s) and life forces in general but I straight up call bs on the Bible and the Quran.

Nope I moved out soon after. Parents still live there for half the year. Animals would act weird in the house too. Our dog cooper would run out of certain rooms randomly tail between legs wimpering and our rottweiler who was never a loud dog and only barked when necessary would make visual contact with something in the air we couldnt see and go full on apeshit, drool, gnashing teeth and barking, the long strand of course hair on the back standing up "kill mode", and at nothing. Took multiple pictures in the house too of "orbs" which i personally can't explain do to the fact my mother is OCD and is down on her knees scrubbing the grout once a week. House is spotless.

I assume he was using it to make it clear he was talking about a segregation-era school and that the place was old.

My mom had a video of strange lights flashing all around her in bed...it was posted to youtube probably 7+ years ago...I'll try to find it. Pretty weird anyway, even Joshua P. Warren came out to investigate, if anyone even knows who he is

I've had some legit paranormal experiences while high on psychedelics, but that is about it.
Although, i've sensed a couple things on more than one occasion while sober, never really seen anything out of the ordinary though. Like this one time at band camp, which was actually an abandon asylum that some friends and i decided to explore on Halloween a few years back. It is a well known place for all kinds of hauntings, you can find it on several sites on the net that talks all about it.
Anyway we arrived at night time, the fence was wide open and we were able to just drive in and park right outside the building. We werent even inside yet and i already had the creeps. Weird menacing vibes all around me. "Why do i put myself in these situations..", i thought to myself.
So we go inside and walk around, there was old abandon equipment everywhere, old beds, lots of things still intact, An old theater, it was like a maze in there. And the strangest thing about it was every now and again you;d run into a cold breeze. Like you'll just be walking through a hall way and all of sudden it would turn cold, like a freezer, but as you kept walking it would turn warm again. There was a small room just outside the building separate from the building. It didnt have a door, so we walked inside and there it was again, the cold breeze, it was like a freezer in there, but yet you stepped just outside the door and it was like 90 degrees again. It didnt make any sense. There was an old creepy tricycle in there as well which didnt make it any better.
We got scooped up by the cops when we made it back to the parking lot for trespassing, but they let us go without a citation after they flipped a coin, "heads or tales?", they said, "heads!" one of our friends immediately answered. "you sons of a gun.. alright get the fuck outta here".
While they had us on the curve they told us they caught some other dudes with masks running out of the building with shanks..

Bitter Cactus said: Nope ghosts are not real. Science has no proof of it. The burden of proof is on the person making the claim they are real to provide evidence.
I'm talking real scientific evidence though, not that you heard a sound upstairs and nobody was there.
paranormal encounters can't be analysed scientifically because they aren't repeatable phenomenon
just because something falls outside the domain of science doesn't mean it doesn't have ontological validity

336 said: Anyways it was in this house that my brother recalls often (nearly every night) having the feeling of a "presence" there with him in the room. He recalls this presence often hovering inches from his face as he squeezed his eyes closed and cried himself to sleep.
I had the same exact experience as a kid in an old house i used to live in. Every night after my mother turned the lights off and closed the door i;d feel a malevolent presence in the room, i would feel it come towards me from the door and it would stand right next to me as if kneeling down and looking directly at me, almost breathing down my neck. I would immediately cover myself from head to toe with my bed sheet, paralyzed in fear, until i fell asleep in a puddle of my own sweat. I went through the same shit every night, and didnt think much of it until very recently actually..
There was definitely something off about that house, from the first day we went to look at it, i believe it was the previous owner of the home who was showing us around, well i remember getting some really strange vibes from him, i cant explain it but it was as if he bad intentions or something, idk.. like he knew something..
I;ve had several dreams about that house and they have always been nightmares. In fact the last dream i had, probably not even a year ago, very recent, I was in my old room, everything seemed normal, when suddenly the room turns dim and i feel an all too familiar presence, it is the same old malevolent presence, except it was a hundred times stronger, strong enough that it was if the devil himself had grabbed a hold of me as i tried to exit and wouldnt let me go, i cried for help. It took every bit of strength to make it out into the hallway towards the living room, something helped me and i came loose, i made it passed the living room into the kitchen and as i looked back this really big guy with a wrestler like figure, wearing a black mask, like one of those gimp masks, with holes for the eyes and mouth, comes storming from out of the dark hallway towards me.
I had no control of the dream at this point, this guy was really coming towards me, he was very angry, pure anger seeped out of this guy. I am extremely scared at this point and out of no where i began to pray, it was the hail mary prayer. "hail mary full of grace..", the guy became even more angry, angry because he could no longer get to me, even though he was just a few feet away from me it was as if an invisible wall had formed between us and he could not go any further. Stuff started getting thrown around, he was pissed, "hail mary full of grace!", i kept repeating, "hail mary full of grace!", I said it one last time except this time it wasnt in the dream.., "hail mary!!..". i had awakened.
I got up, hoping no one had heard me i do a quick search of the house, and indeed no one was home, phew. I walked back to my room still disoriented from the dream, when suddenly i hear footsteps coming from outside of my window, then voices, i realized they were those religious folks who come knocking on ur door early in the morning, i start panicking, "fuck, they know!", i thought, "they;ve come to exorcise my demons!".
They knock on the door, i panic even more, "what am i gonna do..", "this is too much..", i thought as i am pacing back in forth. I decide ok im gonna this, "here goes nothing". I slowly open the door and sure enough it was the religious folks. Two humble looking fellows, "may i have a moment of ur time?", one of them says, "um.. yea sure.." i answered back as if in a stupor. As he is talking to me I have the sudden realization that this wasn't just any regular joe, this was.. god..
God was speaking to me through this man.
"Do you believe in god?", he says in a very serious manner, yet as if there were also an inner smile emanating from his lips". God was asking me if i believed in him.. Without hesitation i answered back, "Yes". He smiles as if giving me the manofapproval,"good, good".
Then the man turns into the devil and starts talking about the jehovah witness religion. He hands me the the jehovah witness pamphlet, "cool thanks". i close the door, "right in the trash u go".
