What are ways to ward off ghosts?
Luckily ghosts aren't real, so there's nothing to ward off. There are several reasons people think they're real or that they've seen one. These include lying, visual and auditory pareidolia, hallucinating and hoaxing among others. Ghosts have never been proven to exist, so it is intellectually responsible and prudent to conclude they do not exist.
In order to make sense of our world, we must use the scientific method, not spooky stories, opinions, hoaxes or outright lies by people who need attention or need to feel special. Other believers may be uneducated, superstitious or just too young and naive.
The Scientific method refers to a body of techniques for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating previous knowledge. To be termed scientific, a method of inquiry must be based on gathering observable, empirical and measurable evidence subject to specific principles of reasoning. A scientific method consists of the collection of data through observation and experimentation, and the formulation and testing of hypotheses.
Scientific researchers propose hypotheses as explanations of phenomena, and design experimental studies to test these hypotheses. These steps must be repeatable in order to dependably predict any future results. Theories that encompass wider domains of inquiry may bind many independently derived hypotheses together in a coherent, supportive structure. This in turn may help form new hypotheses or place groups of hypotheses into context.
Among other facets shared by the various fields of inquiry is the conviction that the process must be objective to reduce biased interpretations of the results. Another basic expectation is to document, archive and share all data and methodology so they are available for careful scrutiny by other scientists, thereby allowing other researchers the opportunity to verify results by attempting to reproduce them. This practice, called full disclosure, also allows statistical measures of the reliability of these data to be established.
In summation: For something to exist it has to be proven. This is how we escaped the dark ages - using reason and logic.So, for now, ghosts do not exist.
Not everyone. Ghosts can choose who sees them unless they are caught off guard - in which is very rare. They choose the people they trust or simply the people that they know they can scare easily.
Poltergeists are thought by most experts not to a spirit but a manifestation of a real persons energy. Most often this person is young and female. Some symptoms of poltergeists are:
Objects moving for no apparent reasons
Electronics being manipulated IE tv on and off
Things being thrown
People being pushed
These are all attributed to poltergeist activity. One theory is that alot of times poltergeists are associated with stress levels of the occupant or occupants in your home. Most traditional exorcisms will not work and the best way to deal with a poltergeist is to simply ask it to leave.
Do not try to contact the spirit though Ouija boards or tarot cards. This can be extremely dangerous if not done properly. Never "cast a circle" in order to communicate either. Just simply ask it to leave.
My wife and I had an experience with a poltergeist that we called "Frank". Whenever he was up to something we would say the name that we gave him and ask him to stop. He usually did.

Is a mist connected with a haunting?
When mist appears around people, it is a haunting. When mist appears around bears or trees, it is just mist.
Mist from artificial fog machines, mist tunnels, and spray bottles usually produces hauntings from the souls of lower level earth spirits like chipmunks or ferns.
because 'boo' is something u say when u jump out to scare somone
In which California city does Poltergeist take place?
a) Sacramantob) Cuesta Verdec) Palo Altod) Foster City
I believe you are talking about orbs. They are supposedly one way that a spirit or ghost can manifest. Orbs are not a phenomenom that is usually associated with ghosts anymore, cause almost every time they are caught on tape or in a picture it is just dust or a bug. But if you are seeing them with your own eyes, and not in a picture or recording, then you know they aren't a bug or dust.
Could it be true that my grandfather haunting me?
It's highly unlikely. Ghosts have never been proven to exist, so it is intellectually responsible and prudent to conclude they do not exist.

Or, from another point of view:
The people who believe in ghosts and see them are more open-minded and accepting of the unexplained,more sensitive.The people who don't see ghosts typically don't believe in them,and are less open-minded than those who do.It also depends on how strong a ghost is,weaker ones are only seen by believers or only felt (like cold spots and people feeling like they're not alone) but stronger ghosts can even interact with people,like moving objects and being visible.
Or, as I believe, it is the individual's mental/psychic sensitivity, rather than their belief. For example, my husband has seen this ghost of a girl in our house. His mother and father have seen her as well, but try as I might, I have never seen her. I fully believe in ghosts, because quite a few of my family members have seen them. I know they are real. I have no doubt about that. But apparently my brain is not as sensitive as others to perceiving ghosts/spirits. I hope I helped.
Is the Emily Morgan hotel haunted?
The Emily Morgan is indeed haunted. The first weekend I stayed there I really had no expectations. I thought the hotel was fantastic when I arrived. My friend and I checked in and hopped on the elevator to get to our room so we could unpack. When we got on the elevator and hit the third floor. The elevator kept going and opened on an entirely different floor. We giggled nervously but didn't think too much about it. After a little shopping and entertainment we settled in for the night. At some point in the night I was woken up by an incredible chill and humming. I woke up to find a little girl sitting on the end of my bed. She was swinging her feet off the end of the bed and humming. When she saw I was awake she giggled and said, "Do you want to sing? Do you want to play with me?". I immediately froze and then started to cry. I was terrified. I actually couldn't even talk about it for weeks after it happened. I pulled the covers up over my head and never made it back to sleep. The following night I decided I would try to stay up later and maybe have a glass or two of wine before trying to go to bed. I again found myself waking up to a cold chill. This time I laid very still with my eyes closed and could feel someone lying next to me..almost leaning against me. I slowly opened my eyes to make sure I was awake. I could still feel someone against me and again I cried. As soon as I started to cry, the feeling left but you could still feel the cold.
yes almost definately, me and my friends went camping up there one time, 4 car loads, had 3 tents between the three of us disaster, however thought it'd be funny... it all got a bit messy, few drinks to many, you know how it goes.... THEN... One of us went missing, my friend Mandy, she's was a big girl, she was wearing a really nice black number, lycra... well we found that ... but never her.... i will never go to that place again... we were distraught, it broke our hearts, Mandy, we miss u!!
How do you communicate with spirits?
I AM NOT 100% SURE ABOUT THIS: there are stone that you can buy at gem shops (not sure what they are called) but they are shaped like small pyramids. if you light some candles and take loads of deep breaths and have a few small bowls of water around you, concentrate really hard on who you want to talk to: the way they look smell sound etc. if you don't already know, you would by now (if you have done what i said) are surrounded by all the elements (earth-the stone, water, fire, air-breathing) the only one that isn't there - that you know of - is the spirit. the elements and your thoughts will call to the spirit, it may take some time for him/her to reach you so be patient; it may even take days. keep thinking about them and they will find you. have an open mind and even though you may not be able to see them, you might hear them (or the other way around.

Is Stagecoach Rd Ellenwood GA haunted?
Many people believe that Stagecoach Road in Ellenwood, Georgia is haunted. The hauntings have not been proven, though. Some people even say they've seen Big Foot in the area.
Do they..... I personally think it is the matter of the person's opinion. Can I ever convince someone there are spirits with hard facts? No, probably not. Most programs currently out like Ghost Hunters, showing the investigation. It's the most believable. Other shows? Pfft, these prophets, shamans, and all of that? Just a bunch of BS. Do I personally believe ghosts exist? Totally. From hard evidence? No way. Through personal experience? The things I have had in personal experience would not ever qualify as a ghost in any sort of evidence. So is there any hardcore facts that can be brought forth to proof the existence of ghosts? No, or not that I've seen.
if u did not belive in ghosts or spirits then go to a haunted u can find on yellow pages if u still dont believe me then suck it up they're real j.k. but maybe someday you will belive or not who cares of ur opinion. tee hee :)
What are you called if you can see ghosts?
a clairvoyant.
Having or claiming to have the power of seeing objects beyond the range of the natural vision.What is the meaning of Clairvoyance?
Clairvoiance is a combination of two french words; clairmeaning "clear" and voyance meaning "visibility" or "seeing". So Clairvoiance literally means "Clear Sight/seeing/vision" Clairvoyant people reportedly have the ability to see ghosts or spirits, remote locations or events, or even have visions of the future.
