I've never really believed in ghosts before my experiences, but "paranormal" things have happened that even people visiting have picked up on, and think there's a ghost around. These include: - sounding like there's people walking up and down the stairs when there's no one else in the house - sounding like someone's doing something in the kitchen (clattering of pans) - keyboard making sounds (one key only) - the feeling of a warm hand on my knee - other people feeling like someone is behind them However it's been all quiet recently! Could this be a ghost? Thanks for your answers! ...

Could this be a ghost? Thanks for your answers! Hi Wicked, welcome to the forum Could this be a ghost? It could be a number of independently occurring phenomenon that have perfectly rational explanations that you may be lumping together under the misperception that it's a 'ghost'. DB ...

Could this be a ghost? Thanks for your answers! You can try some experiments on your own Wicked. Set up a video recorder and/or a voice recorder. Leave out pencil and paper and ask 'them' a question and tell them to write out the answer. Not saying you will get anything but what the heck. ...
