Quote HistoryQuoted: Ghosts didn’t necessarily die in the house, someone who lived there died someone other than the home and maybe their best memories were in the house so they go back and live there. Or It was a moment in time captured in a rift or different dimension In the multiverse someone else lives in that house now, Or maybe OP was being remote viewed. And he caught a glimpse of the viewer. Why? Maybe they got their coordinates messed upmand instead of looking at something interesting they peeped into OPs home. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I have a ghostly conspiracy theory... just a thought... whenever you hear about hauntings, it's all too often a "little girl" ghost, a child's ghost... I say that it's really a demonic entity... people are willing to pay attention, accept, even be compassionate to the ghost of a little girl... that allows the entity to gain the trust of the "subject" of the haunting... I believe the annabelle story started out that way.. Interesting take on things I was thinking it was the Scare-letta story |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Maybe it’s a ghost of a girl that was killed and buried under/ in your slab when your house was built. Why would it have to be death caused by violence? OP said he had LEO friends look up the location for that. But what if there was a former resident whio died in a car or other accident? Or illness? Maybe she died at home, or not, not sure if it always matters. |

OP you need some sleep. I've had this experience, halucinating humanoid figures from lack of sleep. It was all day at work one time. Some people say "shadow figures" but it's not ghosts, just a halucination, like dreaming while awake.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Einstein believed that there was actually no such thing as time, that it was a "stubbornly persistent illusion." In essense, he believed (as do I), that what we think of as "past, present, and future" actually exist side by side, simultaneously. Honestly, I sometimes think little "slips" can occur - where you might perceive the past and vice versa (i.e., a person from the past might perceive you). And then the universe experiences a "404" type error and "this program has performed an illegal operation and must be shut down" pops up. I'm serious. This is where I'm at. "Ghosts" are always doing random daily shit and dressed for a specific time period. The time slip theory makes a lot more sense than "when you die, you resume your daily tasks in your typical daily attire." |

Quote HistoryQuoted: So first, not my type, almost 70s hippyish so really not my type. And for the sake of argument if it is a demon / evil spirit or along those lines, very counter productive. Right now I'm pretty much a secular non believer but not enough to qualify as an atheist (requires evidence of non existence) so anything that provided accepting evidence of an afterlife such as ghosts would almost certainly move me towards religion and acceptance of things I didn't currently have sufficient evidence for. God’s way of helping you believe maybe? |

I live in a haunted house. Yes, I know a lot of GD will come up with a bunch of reasons to say I am wrong. Save it, I know what goes on here and multiple people have experienced it. It doesn't bother me and if anything it can be funny at times.
OP don't tell others that may come into the house what you have seen. That way if they have an experience you didn't bias them. |

Mentioned my story before. Saw what appeared to be a middle aged woman, small child on the side of an old county road here in KY years ago. They were dressed in attire that was looked pre WW 2 (30’s maybe). Turned car around and gone. Since then, nothing out of the ordinary.
However, when I worked on the ICU step down unit (I’m a VA RN), I can remember a few dying vets claiming to see family that had long departed. One vet exclaimed, “it’s beautiful” an hour or so before dying. Not scary at all, but reassuring that there’s either an afterlife or that the final moments of life are peaceful. Not sure I believe, but I saw what I saw and never could explain it. |

This is called ADC, After Death Communication.
There are several types, most I don't put any stock in like see a buttefly, find a penny, lights flickering or find a feather etc. I have outside cats and find feathers all the time and I don't know THAT many dead people. I have had two experiences that I can't explain, one visual (1991) and one auditory (2020). They both occurred days before I knew the person was dead. University of Virginia has a department dedicated to the study of such things. Funny thing is most people have some sort of religious affiliation. Most religious texts document the occurrance of such events. |

It’s weird how when you’re camping, your campsite is always surrounded by axe murders and samsquatches. As soon as the sun comes out in the morning they all turn back into trees.
As I get older I keep seeing glimpses of movement in my peripheral vision. Eye doctor says nothing’s abnormal. I know it’s my brain and eyes fucking with me. There’s also many people that don’t accept that kind of stuff and double down on the “I know what I saw” position. If there weren’t those types of people we’d have no ghost or bigfoot stories. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I’ve had 3 different neighbors all see the same little girl in a white dress. Interesting thing is those neighbors didn’t even all know each other so it adds a helluva lot of validity to what they’re saying they saw. My old best buds family lived in a giant of an old house in the downtown area. Supposedly was some sort of hospital once upon a time. Large family, 10 people total. Several of them attested to seeing the same spirits in their house. |

I lived in a house for 15 years that had a ghost. We called it the "Apparition". Everyone who spent any amount of time in the house either saw it or felt it.
One day we had some Honduran guys there to replace some carpet. My wife heard some excited discussion between them and when she went to check. The one who spoke English asked if we had a dog. She told them we do not have a dog. They said they saw something and she told them "Oh, you must have seen the apparition". They didn't understand the word apparition so she said "ghost". Those guys freaked the fuck out!  I have never seen laborers work so fast. They finished the carpet and took off without saying anything. We got used to living with the "apparition" after a while. He was a benevolent soul.  |

Have seen a few spirits in my life. One was with my aunt and mother, spirit was standing along side the road dressed in clothing from the 1910-20’s era open lawns both sides of the road and he just disappeared.
The last time was at an urgent care I worked at and I know we had zero deaths there because I helped open the facility. We would have a mist that would hang in the hallway and would disappear if you walked towards it. We had a doctor that thought we were bullshitting him until we were setting at our stations and he said ‘what is that’ it was a gray mass floating in the corner and then it shot across to the other corner and then it was gone. I said it was the spirit we have been telling you about. Who knows what could have been there before.this area was depreciation lands after the war of independence |

I personally have never seen a ghost, but I have been near them. Before I started working as an outpatient nurse, I worked night shift at a hospital. People die all the time. Every once in awhile a patient who would comment on seeing someone in their room. Or call lights and chair alarms would go off in empty rooms. Once a patient even told me about the grinning couple standing next to me who didn’t have any legs.
I posted a few of these experiences in the Creepy Thread. So I believe you saw something. |

Yeah, that's a known rendering glitch. Sometimes mirrors display something that was supposed to be rendered in a different mirror. I think the devs are supposed to patch it in release v1.2024.
Quote HistoryQuoted: My hang up on the time thing is that we are also in a space. (No, I don't want to get into babble about "but time IS space"). So even if you had a magic dial the turned time forward or backward, we've been hurtling through space at 60,000 mph ever since the event/time one is trying to locate. Compared to ANY fixed point, whether it's the sun or the earth's core, nothing is in the same spot that it was prior. Continental drift alone would disallow something/someone from appearing in the same chair 10 years later. So, if spirits are tethered to something, it has to be a supernatural explanation, not an advanced physics one. If you had a time machine, you'd have to predict where the earth was at the exact moment you are jumping to. Be good at math, because we're juking at 30km per second at any given moment. Forgetting some math here. The sun is also scooting along at a breezy 450,000mph around the Milky Way, which is also just straight bookin' it at 1,300,000mph through space. In all seriousness, who knows what you saw OP. I've personally experienced things I legitimately can't explain, enough things that I've had no fewer than three people arrive at the conclusion that something has attached itself to me. Makes sense to me, I'm a pretty cool fella

Ghosts don't make sense to me. They're always in some old house and not some pimped out MTV cribs style house. And if they haunt the places where they died, wouldn't hospitals be overrun with them given the sheer numbers? Wouldn't we see them all over the roads given how many accidents there are?

There is a famous experiment where people are given difficult counting jobs to do and in the middle of the scene where they are keeping track of the people and counting, a person in a gorilla suit walks though the experiment. About 1/2 the people doing the counting notice it and 1/2 don’t.
https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/but-did-you-see-the-gorilla-the-problem-with-inattentional-blindness-17339778/ Point being, if you can miss seeing something like this, you can probably see what is not there. |

If Poltergiests can throw cups off tables, why can't they make me coffee in return for publicity? If they just want to terrorize and see the world burn, why don't they start some ACTUAL fires? If ghosts are real, they can see into boardrooms and see backroom deals and warn us of what's coming. But they don't. If ghosts are real, they are fucking retarded. Just appearing to terrorize people, but again, not really terrorizing people. It's so half hearted. Almost like they're made up. Because they are made up. |

I’m no expert, It has just been my understanding that hauntings come from souls that aren’t at rest. A police inquiry into the history of a property is not going to dig up a death that was never reported. Someone possibly killed offsite and brought to the site to dispose of the body, maybe killed by someone building the house. |
