    Does anyone believe in ghosts?

    Logically I don't. But I'm not convinced because I'm sure I feel/see them sometimes. An energy or presence more than anything. This morning in DS's room, I walked in and immediately felt a presence hovering around the end of his cot. It wasn't malevolent but not necessarily friendly either. This happened twice & gave me goosebumps. The second time, I asked "it" to leave (feeling rather silly at the time). The third time I went in - there was nothing. I have felt a presence in our house before but this is the first time in DS's room. Very weird. Am I crazy? It was broad daylight even.

    ETA - It's not an old house or anything & I'm not aware of any deaths in it.

    Yes I do and I get really scared by it. I dont know much about angels etc and depending on your beliefs you can ask Arch Angel Michael to watch over your baby. You turn to every corner of his room and say "Arch Angel Michael please protect my baby". This is what I have heard anyway.

    Yup I believe in them. Felt them, seen them, crapped my pants - yup I'm a believer.

    Sometimes there doesn't have to be death occur in the house, spirits will stay on the land too if something had happened before the house was even built

    I believe in demons (fallen angels) being all around us, and using their knowledge of us and our pasts to play around with our feelings and emotions. I believe that they are very curious about humans, and this manifests in very sick ways sometimes - and I say this as one who has had experience with some of the things they can do.

    Most of all, I believe that the ones people are generally aware of are NOT friendly, and I try to stay as far away as I can.

    *I don't mean any offence to any BB members who do contact spirits for whatever reasons, these are simply my feelings and thoughts, they just happen to be extremely strong in this matter*

    I certainly do believe in them, however I have not had any experience of my own.
    Maz, I really admire your gift

    I do and I don't. I'm a believe it when I see it person, but Andrew has seen it and is a firm beliver. It would be nice to think someone was watching out for me in a guardian angel type way, but I dunno LOL.

    LOL Maz, well played

    No I don't wanna know, because my beliefs tell me that any of my dead relatives are simply sleeping, and waiting for Jehovah to resurrect them. And anything that might be standing behind me is trying to distract me - of course, the description sounds like me, so it could be my sane personality!

    I spoke about this once with my Nanna after I saw an angel at the end of my bed once and wanted her opinion. I found her point of view very interesting.

    I do believe, for want of a better term. I don't, and have never contacted any, they seem to show themselves to me for some reason. I just don't know what to do once they have made contact.

    I suppose it would depend on what outcome you want. For myself, if/when I have an encounter, whether it be nightmares or physical encounters, I try to figure out what has brought them to, because there is generally a reason. Maybe something I've been given, or bought secondhand etc. Then I get rid of that item, or whatever it is, because it is being used as an invitation for these demons to come to me, and I don't want it.

    Of course, if you want to be contacted, you'd probably be better off speaking to Maz or Punks

    Yes I do - saw one when I was 7 or 8. Still sleep with the covers over my head to this day
    My DH has also seen one but I think it was the same one I saw when I was younger - family member.

    Maz - eeek you seriously made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up!!

    I have them around all the time, have done since I was a child. Sometimes the more malevolent ones annoy me. I do go on ghost hunts from time-to-time.

    I never did until I experienced it myself. When we were renting had an experience in two different houses. Never saw anything but we would hear things and strange things happening in the house. In one of the houses a little girl spoke to me in another language. I would love to think my parents were here with us now. Often DH will hear things and say thats your dad, but I havn't sensed anything yet.

    Regards,
    Dianne
