True Ghost Stories Help Us to Learn About the Paranormal World
By David Slone
If you ever had a personal experience with a ghost or you know of any true ghost
stories you will probably want to know what type of spirit, entity or energy was
responsible. This is easier to determine with a repetitive haunting than with a
one time sighting, but if you are very observant you should be able to narrow it
down.
Did the story or experience involve an actual real 'live' ghost or was it more
like a recording, or perhaps a poltergeist? There are a lot of paranormal
phenomenon that are often mistaken for ghosts. Poltergeists, for example, aren't
actually real ghosts, but are forms of psychic energy. Some hauntings are more
like a movie in which a precise scene is played. This type of haunting often
runs on a schedule. The ghost will be seen to go through the same motions or
routine and will appear not to be aware of the living. If the ghost notices, or
interacts with you it is definitely not an energy recording.
When you actually encounter a ghost or paranormal phenomenon it can be difficult
to keep a cool head and really see what is happening. Don't let fear knock you
out of learning. If you panic or turn away in fear you may miss witnessing a
fascinating event. However, fear is usually the first emotion to hit a person
when they come into contact with something from the 'other side'. It's only
natural to fear the unknown, but don't let it control you. The more you are able
to observe and write down the more you will be able to understand about what is
happening.
While I have no doubt of the existence of ghosts I know that their interactions
with humans can be rare. Perhaps I should say their interaction with perceptive
humans. It does seem that some people have more of a propensity to see or feel
paranormal presences than others. One person may have had numerous experiences
with the paranormal while ten others have had none. We tend to base our beliefs
upon our experiences. People that have never witnessed a paranormal event tend
not to believe while those who have had personal experiences do.
Many times our knowledge about ghosts and the paranormal isn't derived from our
own experiences, but come from stories we hear from others. Real ghost stories,
especially those passed down through the years in many of our families, can be
valuable sources for information. These stories can help us to gain a better
understanding of what ghosts and the paranormal really are. If it has been a
long time since you heard the ghost stories and perhaps you don't recall them
well enough ask your parents or grandparents to tell them to you when you get
the first chance.

When we hear ghost stories from others do we really listen? Don't just shrug it
off, there may be a lot of truth in those ghost stories. Often a true ghost
story is passed down through a particular family. Perhaps it happened to one of
your grandparents and you grew up hearing it or maybe it even happened to you
personally. Either way there are hardly any of us who don't know about several
ghost stories that are told as to be true.
