Have You Ever Seen A Ghost?

Have you ever seen a ghost?

Did you tell anybody?

If you did tell anybody, what was the reaction?

I've had some strange experiences, but nothing that would qualify as a full-blown ghost sighting. I'm curious to hear your stories.

    I've never seen a ghost, but i've felt a presence of one.. you know those chain mails people get, when they tell you a story about a ghost that will kill you tonight if you dont forward to at least a number of people? well i got one that says 15 people, but i didnt have that much people to send to, so i just sent 12. So that night, i went to bed and suddenly, the door flew open, exactly what the chain mail said would happen, and a voice called my name... i was sooo scared that i closed my eyes, and fell asleep... the next morning, when i woke up, the door was still open from the ghost last night... that was freaky. I had to sleep with a night light from then on =[

  • My uncle and I was in a car accident when I was 16 and he was 23. Hew was killed instantly. I was just bruised from the safety strap and had a busted lip. I spent the night in the hospital and was released the following morning. After the funeral three days later I was lying in my bed that night when my uncle appeared at my bedside. He didn't seem to mind that he was dead or anything. He bent over and kissed my forehead. Then he begin to caress me and play with me. He has visited me every few days since.

    I have not really seen very many ghosts. I saw my Great Grandmother when she passed away. I told my parents the next morning and they just looked at each other like maybe they needed to have my had examined. You see, my Great Grandmother lived on the other side of the country, and we had not been called or written to about her death so they assumed I was being weird.

    Then we got a letter from one of our relatives over there saying she had died about a month prior and they forgot to tell us! The looks given me were quite different then!

    I have seen the Holy Spirit and my husbands deceased Grandfather. But not at the same time. Maybe 5-10 years apart.

    I have told everyone. I tell it on this thread almost daily.

    I think those who have had such experiences themselves tend to believe me. I have decided it does not matter who does or does not believe. I know it's true and God knows it is true and that is all that really matters in the end.

  • I saw a ghost standing next to me as I was at my computer 1:00 o'clock in the morning. Later it switched my TV channel to a ghost movie and then shut down the satellite connection and DSL connection and then stomped across the middle of my roof.

    Actually, I don't believe in them, and I cannot explain them, but I have seen a ghost.

    In 1975, I was stationed in Germany and had three German Kradschützen soldiers visit me and apologize in German for their acts and the acts of their fellow soldiers. I could not speak German, but I understood every word they said.

    As a dream, it was unusual as I can remember almost every detail of this dream, the only dream I can remember any detail of, even after 35 + years.

    Yes on quite a few occasions...I work at a rest home and the building is very old.

    I used to work night shifts and many times I have seen figures coming down the stairs or walking along the corridors. I was spooked to start with but after a while I got used to it. Many of my colleagues have seen them to.

    I think I saw something once. I was half asleep and assumed that I was dreaming it. But, when I told the people whose house I was staying at, they told me that they have seen this "ghost" before too. I assumed they were yanking my chain. But they all had matching stories about when they had seen it and what it looked like. And they were all very serious about it. Maybe I should believe them, but I can't help but to be skeptical.

    YES!!!!! And had other experiences with "feelings", someone/thing blowing on my neck, noises, flashes out of the corner of my eye, smells, cold waves.

    I've told a few that I know won't think I'm crazy....but I also know lots of people that brush it off because they are not "in tune" to their surroundings.

    My husband never really had any experiences and then a week ago, he had the same blowing on his neck while he sat in his chair in the living room. He was home alone. It really freaked him out a bit but now he believes me more!
