Have you ever claimed to have seen a ghost?

Asked by definitive (794points) March 21st, 2010

I’m just interested to hear other peoples experiences or even if you believe in ghosts.

I believe I’ve had several unexplainable encounters…more when I was young. I’ve had feelings where I’ve been in houses and felt it gave me the ‘creeps’ and then later found out that somebody actually died there.

When I was about 9 years old I used to see a black figure and I had a friend sleep over once and she also saw it.

I once woke up very briefly in the night in my twenties and saw somebody stood next to me…I felt it was a female…and all I recall is that I shouted my ex-husbands name, as he was in bed with me and then I flew under the covers. I don’t recall staying awake so must have gone back to sleep which surprises me. The day after somebody at work caused a lot of trouble…and I’m not sure if I believe that it was somebody letting me know they were there for me.

I’ve read previously that some people are susceptible to these experiences but it seems to occur every 7 years or so?

Anyway would be good to hear other peoples stories :-)

No. I’ve never seen, or claimed to have seen a ghost.

Nope. I’ve seen shadows form the corner of my eye at times but I believe that is something that naturally occurs. I remember years ago it happened a lot to my daughter and she was scared of the dark until I researched it and found out about floaters. It is common and when it passes by the retina it can cause a shadow effect.

I have never claimed to have seen a ghost and if I ever do, I’m not saying anything to anyone about it.

Ive already posted something on here after taking some pics and seeing ghostly presences in them, although I was all alone when taking the pics at a medieval castle here in England.
