      Hi azzawesome!

      I don’t believe there are such things as ghosts. The idea of life after death and spirits etc is not something I will believe in until there is scientific proof. I do enjoy a good horror movie though…

      @azzawesome, awesome question 🙂
      There are not direct proof for the existence of any ghost creature but there are some scientific reason which help to answer that why some people believe in ghosts and spirits. I personally don’t believe in anything like super strong, invisible, and talking in a “mute” manner. Yes they do exist, but only in Hollywood 🙂
      There are some psychological reasons for hallucinations and illusions, which are abnormal conditions of the brain to perceive. And there are some reasons which Physics can prove, such as infra-sound (sound which is lower than normal range a human ear can hear) and infra-light. There are few studies which show that infrasonic waves can give you the feeling of existence of someone in the room, even when there is nobody in the room other than you.
      So never believe in ghost, until science prove it with real and authentic experiments.

      Hey azzawesome, I don’t actually believe in ghosts either. People try to convince you but the evidence never seems very strong to me.
      However when someone you love dies it is natural to think about them a lot and I guess for some people this can make them feel like they are still there. This can be scary but also comforting for some people….and as long as it doesn’t get out of control I’m not sure there is too much harm in this, if it helps people?
      What do you think?
