This was a pretty cool list. Just figured it was relevant: |
|
Definitely
Probably
Probably not
Definitely not
I'm torn between probably and probably not, so maybe. |

Hmm noted. I saw most people leaning on either side of the fence but a Possibly option may be helpful |

Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.
I can actually refute those two points you mentioned stormcrow, in that I am an atheist and I saw a ghost full on. I also saw it multiple times, at least five or six times. When I was a little kid, I remember laying in bed and waking up in the middle of the night and looking across my room and I saw a green hazy looking ghost that started off small but formed into a much larger shape as it walked across the room closer and closer to me. I saw it a few times like I said, though when it reached half way across the room it would disappear. Though often I hid under my covers and tried to act like it wasn't there because it scared me. There was never any stories of ghosts in my house and no one ever said anything about it and I never mentioned it to anyone else, so it isn't like I imagined it based off stories or anything. |

I had the same thing. When i was like 6 or 5, i saw bender from futurama , stealing everything in my house. And i was a 100% sure it was real. But no shit, it wasnt. |
|
I would vote maybe, but there is no option. I'm agnostic at pretty much everything. |

I believe you. Although I dont think you refuted my second point. You still provided a subjective anecdotal experience not to mention the fact that it happened in the middle of the night when you where a kid. I used to have night terrors, not bad dreams but night fucking terrors its hard to explain but I used to become paralyzed in my bed because I thought a demon man was watching me at the foot of my bed( this happened from the time I was about 5 till maybe 7 or 8). In retrospect my fear of this "demon" was completely irrational, I had an overactive imagination (although I dont think that is always necessarily a bad thing) and freaked myself out from just staring at the shadows in my room. Anyway interesting story, I cant attest to your personal experience which brings us to somewhat of a roadblock. |

There should have been an option "I don't know for sure." Because I don't know for sure. Making assertions for OR against without definitive evidence is a poorly-devised assertion. |
|
Yes, but "I dunno" or "I don't know for sure", which is the term ThePreserver used is implied in both "probably" and "probably not". |
|
Okay, I realize that what you mean is that you really have no idea. But you're using the term "I don't know for sure" incorrectly. Knowing for sure means you're 100% certain, or somewhere close to there, maybe 99% certain, since 100% certainty is impossible. So in saying you don't know for sure, you're really saying you're somewhere from 0% to 99% certain, which isn't saying much. Everyone would fall under that category. |
|
Would be nice if someone got a video of a full on apparition in good lighting. You would think if someone found a haunted area, that constantly had ghost activity, you could just place a camera in the area and get a bunch of good video. |
|
Your feedback will be used for future polls. I figured forcing people to pick a side of the fence would be constructive but I'm having my doubts. |

Had my first experience with something ghostlike just this morning. Right after i woke up. I don't know how real it was. But it sure as hell was scary. I voted definetly by the way because the phenomenon is definetly real. To the objective observer. What it is and it's origin is not sure to me. But it's still real. |
|
Dthoughts, that is classic sleep paralysis. If you just woke up and you have paralysis and see things, it is sleep paralysis. In your case we can pretty much gaurentee that it wasn't a ghost of any kind. |
|
So what is sleep paralysis? |
|
Sleep paralysis is the number one cause of "alien abduction" as well. Just like ball lightning is a big contributor to UFO conspiracies. |

Great video. |
