Ghosts?

My all time number one fear... Ghosts.:hiding::hiding:

Honestly, they scare the bejesus outtame. There's some UFO books lying around the house and I used to read them but I remember getting so scared the first time I tried to read some of the stuff in the ghost sections of the books I couldn't get through them.

My fear includes all movies about Ghosts. And yes, I found the 6th Sense terrifying.(Some found Signs terrifying and the 6th Sense grand, go figure...)

(No, I didn't find the movie 'Ghost' scary...)

I'm just a big scaredy-cat really...
 
I'm quite convinced my g/f's sister's house in Denver is haunted. Really strange crap goes on in the kids toy room late at night. Toys moving around, the electronic ones turning on and making noise, etc. It only happens sporadically, and only at night

Last time I was there it FREAKED me out. I got teary-eyed... Not because I was going to cry or anything, but because it was so surreal. No word of lie I am covered in goose bumps as I type this.

Kids' toys go off all the time. My son's toys go off, especially if they're stacked all weird. Friggin' "YOU CAN DO IT!" of the tickle me elmo guitar used to wake me up pretty consistently. Not discounting your goosebumps or anything, but did you make sure you put your gerbil away before you checked the room out? :ninja: :hiding:

Naw dude, it's more F'ed up that that. They go off a lot. And simple stuffed animals end up on the other side of the room by morning. It's really twisted. It's beyond freaky! And it's only at night. Nothing weird happens during the day, ever.

Also, it's a Guinea Pig!!!!

Got a webcam? Set it up and record one night, see if you can catch anything. You could sell it to ghoshunters, it would be more interesting than their boring show.
 
I don't believe in ghosts. I do believe there is life other than on earth, but none of that "evil alien who wants to probe me" ****. Chances are if there is life out there, it's gonna be just as scared of us as we are of them.

Even though I don't believe in ghosts, my friend says he saw a poltergeist staring at him in his house one night. He says one second it was standing just outside his bedroom door, he freaked out and slammed it shut, turned around and it was standing behind him.

I don't believe him, still, it had me scared crapless of being in the house alone, with all the lights turned off playing Xbox late at night like I usually do. Really, I was scared to bits for months. :ninja:
 
I saw a ghost about a month ago.

Picking up equipment in an abandoned wing of the old VA Hospital- the building that was built in the 1880s for Civil War vets. There's a hallway with doors opening into an adjacent room- as I'm walking down the hallway- I see someone standing by the window. I knew there was no one else there- I had just unlocked the wing. When I got to the next door around 10-15 feet later, there was no one there- nothing that could have been misconstrued as a person (like a coat rack or something). I just thought "I just saw a ghost." Wasn't really creeped out or anything.
