How do you know that for sure Cactus?.

I don’t want to banish the idea of ghosts existing because I’m always open to the suggestion that a ghost (whatever one of those actually is) is the cause of reported phenomena, but I also know it is more likely that something more logical is the cause of what has been experienced.

We'll never know what it was Cactus. I've not said what I think Mrs Socrates experienced from 7-11 years old. I'm offering rational food for thought on the experiences based on sound research in perceptual psychology. There's a big difference between what and how we experience the world as a child and how we experience it as adults. In this case 40 years have passed and that's 40 years of experiential growth that will impact on memories.

But think about this: what if it was real? What if exactly what she said happened, happened?

Listening to Socrates; he seems to be very 'on the fence', and someone with good judgement.

I'm sure it was real to Mrs Socrates at the time, just as my ghost sighting was real to me 40 odd years ago. Socrates will judge what's posted about the experience as he sees fit and either agree or disagree.
We've no way to determine the actual events of this case now and that's a fact. Four years is a long time to be affected and terrified by these events.

That's all true.

I meant Socrates ability to judge his wife and her family though, from what I have heard from him. (I think he would have good judgement)

But this would have been terrifying.

It would be very scary for an adult, for a child it would be traumatic.
