How would you react if confronted with a ghost?

Other than trying to breed it off to a pastel :P I'd probably attempt to talk to them or go back to sleep. But I dont actually believe in ghosts, and as such I doubt I would be scared, I'd just imagine it as a dream or me losing control on my imagination and starting to hallucinate again (I trained myself to hallucinate at will, dont ask, haha).

i Lived ina haunted house , and its actually why i moved just last month the last guy that lived in my old house hung him self in the attic. i belive very much so in ghosts because i had wierd things happen to me in that house before my parents even told me about why we where moveing. odd shadows outa the corner of my eye footsteps . i even had a feeling once of some1 face to face stearing me down like a foot in front of me but no one there

Really depends on the type of ghost. Are we talking disembodied heads floating around you in a creepy abandoned subway, yelling your name? Or the floating in the through the window, disappearing and unzippping your pa....NVM >.>

Either way, I'd bust out some Ray Parker Jr, and reach for the phone!

Ghost...I don't know. But my coworker and I (we're night nurses) were discussing the awesome possibility of our patients turning into zombies when they die. We would keep a shotgun at the nurse's station just in case. And we'd have to go to private rooms only so that they couldn't eat their roommates before wandering into the halls, you know?

I'd whip out some nunchucks

I've always wanted a ghost in my house the whole piano playing randomly at strange times of night and I decided what I'd do is re-arrange the furniture and whatnot every night so eventually the ghost gets annoyed w/ my constant furniture moving and finds somewhere else to haunt.

I'd give Bill Murray or Dan Akroyd a call.

Which Ghost? Orange, Green, Butterscotch, Citrus? :D

I currently live in a house that has an unseen guest.. The first time you turn a corner and see a human leg and torso turn and step into another room can be scary. The thing that gets old is the slamming of the cabinet doors, knocking on the walls, and the conversations that we hear whispering down the halls. Carrie my wife has been laying in the bath tub and seen a shadow walking back and forth outside the door (like under the door, it blocks out the light) she thought it was me asked if I needed any thing, it stopped and then was gone. I've been touched, and we see small child sized shadows lean in and out of door ways as you walk into the hall. In braud daylight we see things about the size of a Med dog run from room to room.

It's startling sometimes but nothing bad.. and it comes and goes. It'll be quite for months and then for weeks the dogs are standing in the doorway barking down the hall's or growling in out bedroom looking down the halls, that's a pretty good sign that things are going to kick up.

Whether they exist or not, if you were confronted one in this hypothetical reality in which they do exist but otherwise the rest of the world is the same, how would you react. I dont believe in ghosts but I did state how I would most likely react.

Well it would never happen, but I would just be normal I guess. Says what's up and how do I become one of you

I'd Swear off drinking for a week. And get the proton pack from my halloween costume last year.

I have been confronted. I wasnt afraid honestly. I was freaked out but never felt harm. It's a lot to type, maybe tomorrow I'll share. I have a few stories actually, its strange, I've had a few encounters, also have had 3 visions that have come true, one saved me from a horrible car accident. Im not a weirdo, just a dude thats had some strange ish happen.

I lived in an old fancy hotel that built in 1902 and since was converted to apartments. It was VERY haunted!! I have tons of stories...doors swinging back and forth...walking upstairs (we lived on the top floor and had the only attic access), conversations, windows opening and closing...lights, tv, radios on and off, footsteps walking down the hall when no one else was there. I could go on and on. I never saw anyone...however my roommate did and my neighbors did. I always verbalized I did not want to see them. When stuff would get crazy....I would just say please stop you are scaring me now and honestly things would stop for a couple of months. Once when I first moved in I was laying on the couch taking a nap and the window was open....I thought...hmmm...its cold I should close the window....the window then slammed shut. I didn't think anything about it and went back to sleep...when I woke up my roommate came home and I sat up and described an old man that lives in the apt., completely harmless and just looking out for us. (I have no idea how I knew that). A year or so later I had a friend over and he freaked out and said there was an old man in the window...totally harmless old man. Freaky!! We have tons of those types of stories. If you asked me ...would you ever move into a haunted house I would say NO WAY. But while I was there and experiencing it....wasn't that bad!! I just dealt with it. But some of my friends refused to come over a second time.

How can you be sure you're not regularly encountering them already?

Me, if I knew for sure, would sort of let it set the course, sort of go with the flow, you know?

There is no way a guy like me would scream like a little girl, curl up in a ball on the floor and make a big warm puddle. No way at all. None.

a.s.a.p.....:gj:

I lived in a house that is haunted. I actually plan on moving back into it when I start college. I have only seen a figure once, I have no clue how no one else saw it since I was sitting on the couch with my parents and sister. I saw a figure walk from our hallway and into the kitchen. I guess I asked my mom what grandpa was doing in the house. She was confused until I said it was the grandpa in the picture in her room. I guess I saw my Great Grandpa Donald who had died 10-15 years before in the house. I have also head things moving around and have to have a radio going when I'm in the shower there because I can hear doors closing even when no one is home.
After my Great Grandma passed away in 2004 I got her room. There was one school night where I couldn't stand to be in there for some reason, it just felt creepy. I ended up laying in the living room with my youngest sister and my dog. She was asleep when I heard things on the counter in the kitchen getting moved around, I got really freaked out and didn't want to move. I then heard the voice of a little girl say "Momma, what time is it?" My dog then did her head tilt thing and got up and went into the kitchen, as soon as she entered the noise stopped. I ended up sleeping with my other younger sister that night xP
My sister has had an experience too. I was in 6th grade and she was in 5th, so we went to school at different times. She was sitting in the living room after I left and our mother was sitting in her room getting ready for work. There was a pile of magazines next to my sister on the couch that suddenly were shoved onto the floor and the couch cushion dipped down like someone was sitting there, my sister screamed bloody murder and ran to our mom.
The area where this house is seems to have a lot of paranormal activity. My uncle's house which is 2 doors down has some weird things happen there too.

Anything that may or may not show up around my house is probably due to the Ouija board, or my imagination...

What do you mean 'if'? ;)

There are a couple in my house. They don't bother with me, and I leave them alone. The old lady helps my roomate find things he's misplaced, sometimes.

ghost do exist, my brother & i seen a ghost, if i were by myself i would've swore that i was just going crazy but my brother was with me & we saw the same thing, it happened really fast, we were in the basement of my mom's boyfriend's house, & an old lady with a white nightgown walked down the steps, she was actually transparent, the way you see ghosts in movies... she was just like that! if i were you i wouldnt believe it either but maybe 1 day u can come face to face with 1, then you'll have a story that nobody believes

I really love the ghost shows, in particular Ghost Hunters - TAPs, it might be Ghost Adventures, I get the names mixed up. But anyway, I really want to do the flash light test in our house. I'm easily freaked out, so I think ghosts really feed off me. I've had many experiences with seeing ghosts, but I've had the most experiences in our house. I've only seen one shadow in the house, it's pretty much just stuff with the lights. The shadow made me throw my hands in front of my face and gasp because I thought for sure I was going to run into something.

The weirdest one was walking out of the kitchen and into the living room and the lights shut off, I even heard the switch flip. I stopped and said "umm....." because I thought it was my fiance being a jerk. The lights flipped back on, switch too, and he wasn't standing by the light switch, I found him laying in bed! It was creepy! Last night I turned on our dinning room light so I could see to let the dog out. I went to the bedroom to talk to my fiance while the dog was pottying and heard something. I looked out in the hallway and the dinning room light was off. I figured, great, there goes another light bulb. I felt my way through the house and tried the switch, it was off....and it turned on just fine when I flipped it up. Also, our light switches are pretty hard, they make a loud click when you flip them, and they definitely wouldn't flip on their own. I have tried to figure out why this stuff happens. I've even had an electrician come!

The weird things only happen to me and I've decided it's either because I'm easy to feed off of, or because I put snakes in the house. It was built for a returning soldier and his family in 1950. I've spoken with one of our neighbors who watched our house be built from hers 60 years ago! I don't know if anyone has died in the house, and honestly I don't want to know. I told the relater to please not tell me if there was a ghost in the house unless it was evil. I also asked the neighbor to not tell me if someone died here. This house was empty for 2 years before we bought it.....and it was an old lady who lived here before that....NOPE she's good, she never died here, her kids are 70 something, so that would make her 90ish she could still be a live!!! Oh god....

Oh, our dog will also bark at things that aren't there. He will run into the bathroom and bark, in our closet, in our hallway, a corner of our bedroom, really weird places for a dog to bark. When he does that in our bedroom I say, would you please stop barking..... It freaks me out!

Well I would have to disagree. When I was 9-10 years old, my sister rented a house. My sister always said the house was a little creepy, but they needed the house due to it's lower rent than others in the neighborhood. It had a one car garage and I would play in it when there were no cars parked in it. I do remember hearing a woman talking all the time. Never really talking to me, just having a conversation. Too many times I heard it in the attic of the garage. However there wer no steps leading up to the attic. I started talking to the woman, but she would never talk to me. I do remember hearing, "Why Bob, why." My sister said she had heard the woman many times too, but could never make out what she was saying.

Now my other sister had the sheet pulled off of her one night while she spent the night there. She also said that after the sheet was pulled off, she heard a guy's voice asking her what she was doing there. She never stayed there again. It scared her to death.

My sister and brother in law would always hear steps going up and down the stairs. My sister could also hear doors open and close all through the house. My brother in law left for work at 4am, so my sister would never completely wake up when he left, but one morning, she hear him open the front door, get into their car and drive off. Shortly after that, she was awakened by the front door opening and heard boots coming up the stairs. She got up thinking it was her husband. When she got to the bedroom door, she saw what appeared to be a ghost, a man of about 60 dressed in older clothes. She screamed and the guy disappeared directly in front of her.

Long story short, they moved out as soon as they could. When they were moving a neighbor came over asking if they had seen ghosts. My sister was confused, how did they know that. Seems like the husband had died in the house and the wife committed suicide in the garage. None of us had heard or knew of this story prior to this neighbor telling the story. She said that in the 4-5 years since the deaths, no one has stayed in the house for more tha 6 months. EVERYONE had experienced the husband in the house and it seem like the wife's ghost would talk to people only in the garage.

You can think what you want, but once you've experienced something like this, you become a believer.

That would freak me out and I would probably have to move if that happened haha.

What is the flash light test?

I have had plenty of experiences with ghosts or the supernatural. Shadows, noises, voices and the lights turning on and off by themselves. I never encountered an apparition though. With me being so interested with this kind of stuff I would love to see one. I would most likely be super freaked out too. I will share one story from when I was about ten years old. I was at the house of my aunts then boyfriend. It was Thanksgiving my parents were out getting stuff ready for dinner and they left me with my aunt and my cousin. We were the only 3 in the house. It was a pretty big house so me and my cousin were playing hide and seek. While my cousin was hiding I had to go pee. My aunt was in the washroom down stairs getting ready so I decided to go use the one upstairs. My cousins bedroom was right across from the bathroom so I can see him clearly hiding under the covers of his bed. So as im walking towards the bed calling him an idiot for hiding in a lame spot I hear my cousin screaming from downstairs telling me to hurry up and find him. At this point I had my hand on the covers getting ready to pull it off the bed. I ran down so fast. When I went back up with my aunt the bed was made. I still get goosebumps just thinking about it.

real or not i am not one to be intimidated by the so called supernatural.

Send her this way, ive lost many things that needs some finding.

I would flip out, scream, run away, and then five minutes later go back to where the ghost was and if it was still there, ask it if it was my guardian angel.

I'm also a RN and there was a room on the 5th floor everyone said was haunted... so whenever it was empty I did an EVP session and caught an old man voice that said "the pain"... who knows how many people died in that room (was an ICU unit). the bedside table would roll by itself, the tv would turn on and off by itself and it was generally a lot colder than the other rooms on the floor. and yes we checked for drafts we really couldn't explain anything. we actually had patients in there that would ask why another patient was standing in their room or ask to transfer because they felt sick in there but better when walking through the hallways.

I'm a skeptic but that was a really creep room.

Most of those can be caused by EMF due to all the electronics and power wires running through hospitals.

Hmmm...is it a sexy ghost or a nasty swallow your soul kinda ghost, would determine wether I move out or not. :D
