Can anybody see a ghost?

One of the most frequent questions asked is, "Can anybody see ghosts?"

The answer is yes.  In fact, many investigation requests originate from those that have never had an unexplainable experience before and are suddenly meet with something they can't rationalize.  It can be as simple as sitting on a park bench and seeing a lady that isn't there vanish in front of them after talking to that lady.  Or perhaps a new parent is dealing with their infant interacting to something unseen.  Sometimes it's a new house, or an old house that's been remodeled.  Other times there is a recent death and a person is woken to the recently passed loved one.

 In any situation, there doesn't have to be any prior paranormal encounter or knowledge of spirits.  Unfortunately, it is often more frightening the first time one sees a ghost and it isn't on TV.  The natural response is, "I didn't just see that."  The next step is to explain what the person did really see and investigate.  However, depending on what was seen this may be too scary for some.

The number one thing to remember is a ghost or spirit is not like TV and will not typically cause any physical harm.  The media makes ghosts out to be scary for ratings to sell movies.  While each situation must be taken on a case by case basis, if you have had a spirit around for years and it hasn't hurt you.  Then the likelihood of it every bothering you is pretty darn low.  As my husband says, "Just ask them to pay rent!"  Now we have had a case of one spirit doing the laundry.  I offered to bring them home, but my husband said, "no".

So can anybody have a paranormal experience?  Absolutely!  In fact it's usually when you least expect it too.  Just remember to remain calm and not think of those scary Halloween movies.
