Anyone here ever seen a ghost? Or something strange like that?

Nope...

I always thought it would be neat if being susceptible to "psychic" experiences were like any other talent. If you've ever asked an artist "how do you do that", you'll know they can't really explain it, especially to someone who can't draw. I think it would be interesting if "psychic ability" were an attribute like perfect pitch.

Derren Brown did an interview with Richard Dawkins and talks about that. Very interesting stuff!

I think it's a difficult topic to talk about, many people talk and share experiences of un-natural occurances i.e. ghosts and alians. Some are damn right insane and the more settle stories are most effective.

Let me expand that... Some people go way over the top with there dramatic stories saying if flew things across the room and chucked them out the bed like in paranormal activity movies but those more believable like posted on here are more so.

That's my opinion.

While I don't have any specific sightings to report. I do believe in the phenomenon of the paranormal. I think a lot of people take it too far and end up in wacko-ville, but to rule it out completely is just as foolish as saying a ghost makes you breakfast every morning.

i don't believe in ghosts (never seen 'em)

i have however had two sightings of UFOs

once at night with this cornucopia of about 16 lights hovering quite near the Earth

the second time with this silver needle-like object just floating in the sky

people tells me they're experimental aircraft, but I don't believe them

Those were ghosts.

The restaurant I work in is haunted. There's been a number of instances that can only be explained that way.
First was a few months ago, we were closing up shop when we heard something shuffling around upstairs (nobody was up there), and then BANG! It sounded like somebody dropped a huge box full of shit.
Then I was upstairs looking for the key to the safe. Not able to find it in the dark, I started out of the office when the closet door that I had just been standing at sprang open.
And just tonight when I was leaving, I could hear what clearly sounded like somebody tapping on the window from inside. And I was the last person out.

In bed at the early hours of the morning I always hear faint noises in my kitchen and roof & stuff, and assume it is the cat. But I only just realised last night that my cat is dead (died in early March) and could not be making the noises. I can't believe I didn't realise this for so many weeks. I suppose having a cat for so many years you just disregard things.

Drop bears.
