Are ghosts real?

“To those who believe in them, ghosts are most often thought of as the spirits of a deceased people who, for whatever reason, have not been able to “move on,” or leave this world,” writes Michael Keene for the Rochester Crime History Examiner.

“Ghosts, spirits, apparitions, spooks, specters, haunts . . . whatever you call them, ghosts have provided us with fascinating study material and conversation topics for centuries – However, they’ve also given people the opportunity to take part in raging debates over the reality of the spirits’ existence,” writes Keene. “Interestingly, the two sides are split about equally, with nearly half of people polled saying they do believe in ghosts, and the other half claiming that strange happenings can always be explained with the help of science – Whether you’re a believer or not, the debate and the subjects themselves are certainly intriguing.”


According to Keene, “People usually don’t “find” ghosts; believers in the supernatural claim that most sprits are intelligent beings who act of their own accord. If a ghost wants to be seen, heard, felt, or otherwise studied, it will make itself known; however, if a spirit has no interest in interacting with living people, it simply will not.”

“Equipment such as infrared sensors, thermal cameras, Geiger counters, digital voice recorders, and more have provided ghost hunters with the means to collect hard evidence that can help determine if paranormal activity is indeed occurring at a specific location,” writes Keene.
