Do you believe in ghosts?

Asked by Feta (930points) May 25th, 2013 from iPhone

This is just a question for fun.

I was a strong believer as a kid because I used to see things and my mom was very into spiritual things.

But when I moved in with my dad, his family is very Christian and I stopped having experiences so I just figured it was my imagination before.

But over the summer I went to Savannah and stayed in a dorm for a summer program.

The dorm is actually a converted hotel circa the 30’s or so. I knew Savannah is supposed to be the most haunted city in America, but I didn’t even bother looking up any stories about the hotel because I wasn’t into that stuff anymore and I’ve stayed in Savannah before and didn’t have anything happen.

But I remember laying in bed every night and hearing a ball roll across the floor above our room. And it was late and we had “lights-out” at 11. The people above us were guys so I figured they were just messing around. But it was every night for the week I was there.

And then like the fourth day I was there, I heard high heels walking across the floor upstairs. And at first I thought it was funny because I knew there were only guys above us!
I actually told some of friends about it the next day.

The first time anyone started talking about possible ghosts was the day before we left, and people were just saying that they’d heard weird things or saw something weird.

It wasn’t until a few days after that I decided to look up if the dorm was haunted.

Some previous students had reported the exact same things I heard. They even nicknamed the ghost “Heels”.

I was hearing this stuff on the first night I was there. So I just don’t think it was the guys messing with us.

What do you think?

I’ve been looking into spiritual things and I’ve become much more open to it since then.

A lot of you guys seem very wise and intellectual and it always seems like intelligent people are more focused on what’s in black and white.

So I’m interested to know if you believe in ghosts or not.
