I've never had nightmares, actually. Sure, some unpleasant dreams where I was relieved when I woke up and it hadn't happened, but nothing scary enough I'd call a nightmare. It's odd, but I guess I should be glad.SlashAndThrash wrote:i know that feeling, i call it the nightmare tingle. any time i go to sleep and i feel that feeling, i know i'm about to have a nightmare.xforeverxmetalx wrote: Kinda like when you get the chills, but far worse.

I'm very skeptical about this ghost business. I don't believe in god or ghosts or spirits or anything like that.
However...
I do have a theory about what ghosts might actually be. What if what you all are actually experiencing is some sort of rip or wrinkle in space/time allowing you to look into the past (future?) for a split second? What if ghosts are some sort of involuntary time travellers who are unaware of the rip in space/time.
Or you could just be hearing/seeing things. The brain does behave in strange ways.
Now having said that....
I did use to drive up to Oxford, Ohio to see The Ghost Light many times (many times drunk). The legend is that a headless motorcyclist rides down this very hilly road toward your car if you park on the side of the road and flash your headlights three times. I must have been to this place twenty times and I have seen the "light" eleven times. It looked like a giant orange ball that lit up the trees and the street and everything around it. Strangest thing I've ever seen. But I'm not about to say that it's a ghost. I think it's ball lightning or some other natural occurance that can be explained by science.
Search YouTube for "Oxford Light" you'll find a few videos (of drunk people waiting on the side of the road).

I'm not a real believer in ghosts either, but my friend Ripper and his ex-GF both swear that one of the upstairs bedrooms is haunted.
I don't go up there much.
Mostly because I don't like climbing stairs at my advanced age, though.
Kinda like auras. I don't believe in auras, but I believe cats can sense them.

i guess if you believe in spirits you can also believe in ghost, but i don't.
That being said, I seen and experienced lots of unusual events, all of which turned out to be exaggerations of my imagination. All of which are also based upon fears that I have but once I go into the dark rooms or creepy fucking hallways anything "abnormal" goes away and I realize that I was just over using my mind. Although I wish they were, full out ghost circle pit!
also, the closest to a ghost was seeing Arsenio Hall on a commercial, talk about washed up.

Bit underwhelming.
I don't believe in any kind of anything. No imaginary friends, no ghosts, no (gag) "spirituality," nothing...
However, if I was a ghost, I'd come up with much better things to do than fuck with light switchs, hang around the ends of the beds of sleeping people waiting for them to wake up or opening and shutting doors. Seriously, what a way to waste super powers.

I once saw man smoking a cigarette at the end of my bed when I was about 3. He was at the end, sitting upright with one arm propped on the foot board and the other smoking a cigarette. I casually got up and went to my parents room and told them there was a man on my bed, they freaked and ran in my room to check. Flipped on the lights and no one was there, so I showed them how the man was sitting and what he was doing. I remember my Dad going pale in the face as he told us that the bed belonged to his father (my grandfather) and every night before bed my grandpa would sit like that and have his last cig of the day. My grandpa died when my father was 15, and to this day my parents maintain that there are no pictures and no way I could have known that at 3. I still remember seeing the man, to this day, he was there.
