Are ghosts corporeal enough to activate a motion detector camera?

In order to figure out the answer to this question we would first have to firmly establish that ghosts do, in fact, exist. Then we would have to devise some means of empirical establishing their corporeality.

The ghosts in my machines are not.

They are corporeal enough to fight light sabre battles against sith lords, as seen in the latest documentary “star wars the last jedi”.

Ghosts were not uncommon in Victorian times and earlier but they seem to have just about vanished from the modern world. How often is the picture of a ghost uploaded to FaceBook? No one sees them anymore. They have faded away and no longer have the strength to activate a motion detector camera.

Well….no.

The question is inherently contradictory; ghosts by definition have no corpus, so they cannot be “corporeal enough”.

Depends on the ghost and the detector, and who you talk to.

I think it would be a matter of how visible they are in actual light, and not a matter of how corporeal they are. Motion detectors react to changes in light.

So if a ghost isn’t actually affecting light, then no. Otherwise, yes.

Some people have said they’ve seen ghosts and auras etc that others also there don’t see. I wouldn’t think those would show on most cameras.

Some people say they have taken photos of ghosts. If those were the actual camera data at the time, then yes they’d set it off if it was above the threshold for the motion detector to register it.

I’ve seen what looked like figures for a moment where there seems to have been no actual person, in one case in a house with reported ghost. But I don’t know if they were just in my mental or nervous system perception or if there was actually some light to see.

I’m going to quote a line from my new favorite book “Mistakes Were Made (But Not by Me)”:

—“Believing is seeing.”

If they were, we would have seen it by now.
