Have You Seen Ghosts? You’re Not The Only One!

Have YOU seen a ghost? One in five Americans say they've seen a ghost, and most of those people say they've seen one multiple times!

A new poll for Halloween asked 1,000 Americans about the paranormal, and found almost one in five of us think we've seen a GHOST before. 19% of people say they've indeed seen a ghost. Here are some interesting stats on things we've experienced but can't explain.

1.  Most who've seen a ghost say it's happened multiple times.  Just 9% say it only happened once.  Almost a third say it's happened more than five times.

2.  There's a 50/50 chance you'll know the ghost you encounter.  Of people who've seen a ghost, 29% said they knew the person, 29% said it was a stranger, 28% said they've seen both, and 14% weren't sure, or didn't see the ghost's face.

3.  Most ghosts are nice.  This is certainly MY belief. 40% of people said the ghosts they've met were "good," compared to just 7% who said "evil."  A lot of people said they've met good AND evil spirits though.

4.  Thinking your house is haunted is common.  One in four Americans think they've lived somewhere that was haunted.

5.  Even if you've never seen a ghost, you may have sensed one.  37% of us say we've felt a "presence" before, 29% have heard the voice of someone who wasn't there, and 28% have felt an unexplained change in temperature - THIS is the one I have experienced.

It goes on: 30% have smelled an unexplained odor, 33% have heard music, or a sound they couldn't explain. 25% have seen lights or other electronics turn off on their own, 22% think they've seen an object move on its own. And 20% have seen a door open or close by itself.  That's PROOF POSITIVE of a ghost right there! Or maybe it was the wind?

Who are you favorite celebrity ghosts?

He’s small, he’s spooky - and he’s got all your nudes. 

Is there a ghost you would rather be haunted by? Casper is an absolute delight. He's kind and understanding, and can shapeshift! Most of us remember the cartoon. Here's the trailer for the movie:
