Yes ... I do believe in Ghosts and Evil Spirits .... I also believe in Kindly Spirits and Angels.
In a remote house ALONE? Depends on if the haunting is kind or mean. My guess is that I probably would NOT .... unless I could have a friend or two along. Still .... probably NOT.
Paranormal?? Well ... I do sense things ... kinda like ESP. Yes ... I do believe that I get messages and hints and warnings from the great beyond somehow ... and I believe I can even effect others that way ... sending Good Vibes!!
I like to think I don't but in reality, I think I do believe. I think the more a person thinks about evil, the more energy it has.
As far as staying in a "haunted" house in a remote area alone. I don't think so.
I have had experience with paranormal. When my sister died. She came and sat on my bed. I was fully awake. She wasn't visable but there was a distinct feeling of weight on the bed. It felt friendly and peaceful.
Another time I felt a presence was when my TV turned itself on and my computer turned itself off simultaniously...then the tv had the "Windows" logo and opening screen... freaked me right out. I didn't like that at all.
I believe in God, One All Powerfull Spirit Almighty and that I am part of this as It lives and moves and has It's Being though me.
I wish this thing had spell check
Hi cin!
Yes, I do do believe in Ghosts and Evil Spirits. And like CinCin,I do believe in Angels.(And I believe some Angels are still with us here on Earth! LOL) ;~)
ALONE? Highly doubt it! Even though my Faith is very strong, my nerves would probably get the best of me and even normal noises would be "suspect".
Absolutely!I had a very close bond with my grandfather and I "saw" and spoke with him, must have moments after he died, and told my Mom he had died, and a few minutes later the phone rang with the news that he had died. Also, my husband and I lived in an apartment where very strange things (not bad things, just strange things) used to happen all the time. We later found out the apartment complex had been built on Native American Burial Ground! No wonder! LOL My younger brother and I also tend to be very "psychic" with one another and he lives about 2000 miles away.
Yes, I believe in them. If it was a good, friendly ghost I would stay at the haunted house in a remote location but if it were a bad one no way would I stay alone. Yes, I have had a couple of experiences where my deceased husband came back to visit me. The first time I could only see him. The second time I couldn't see him but I could both hear and feel him.
Bree says----
I do believe in Angels...I know that I have had a Guardian Angel all my life.
Yes I could stay in a remote house alone.
I defintely believe in ESP...in my lifetime too many things have occured not to believe!!! I am a frim believer in Good Karma and Good Vibes.
My undersatnding of ghosts and evil spirits and such is that they are manifestations of our own energies and perceptions. Thismeans that they have no basis in the actual physical world but can still be real enough to us that some powerful things can happen. How this can work is part of what gets termed the "collection cognitive imperative", which sometimes gets dumbed down as "belief system" but it is not. Yes, I would be willing to stay in a remote location that is said to be "haunted," even alone and without a flashlight. But I'm not leaving my bed unless money is involved. My understanding of things that get termed "paranormal" can be summed up in the following seemingly paradoxical set of events, thus: I believe that it is possible for a person to enter a room and cast every itme in the room onto the floow, then leave the room only to return and say "Look at this. This must be the work of a poltergeist!" And the person would be right. What I'm tryingot point out is that this precious thing we call "consciousness" is actually a very fragile construct that we often don't use. Discussion?
Hmmmm....I believe that I do not know exactly what IS out there. I have good experiences that I do not understand and I have had bad experiences that I understand even less.
I have experienced "evil" intrusion to my spirit when I was most vulnerable and have felt the loving influence of my father long after he passed on.
I have had experiences I cannot explain which have directed my actions long after the sensation has disappeared.
Most of the time I believe we are what we feel and we open ourselves to our own positive/negative energy.
I do believe in a bond and communication between some people which has no basis within "normal" parameters,
But I am not perfect and neither is my perception...
NO.... I would/could not stay in a remote house alone. if for no other reason than I would drive myself crazy....
No I do not believe in spirits, stuff from beyond and the like. I'm a person of science. Now of course there are always things out there that we can not comprehend, but just because we can not understand it, does not mean we should label it as "Paranormal".
Would I stay alone in a "haunted" house alone? Sure, if you gave me food, money, and a nice spot to sleep.
I believe people blow things up way out of proportion. I have lost family to natural and unnatural causes, but I don't believe they'll come and visit me, their dead...
Which brings religon into question, and we can go on and on about fact from fiction. My stance, anybody can write a book and call it holy. I think there is something to afterlife, but I doubt it's the perfect "realm" its all cracked up to be.
To conclude, I believe we as humans should be more afraid of our own devices, rather than evil spirits and ghosts.
TO Ian. Hey please understand. Your response to this question defines your religion, your "re-linking" to that which cannot be known by rational thought.
