Is there a reason why spirits appear to us?

A ghost will show themselves for multiple reasons. One of the main reasons is to ask for help. They often need assistance and need a mortals assistance to perform a task needed for them to pass on. They could also be a family member wanting to say goodbye before passing on. A spirit will almost never attack a human and often just need help.

What is a ghost?

Answers (quite a few)
Ghosts are a paranormal state, the soul or spirit of someone who has died, who can't "pass over" , for some reason. Either they left something very special that they are protecting, or they haven't gotten to the state where they choose Heaven or Hell.
---------------------
A ghost is the supposed spirit of somebody who has died, believed to appear as a shadowy form or to cause sounds, the movement of objects, or a frightening atmosphere in a certain place. Or someone who has died before their expiration date and their spiritual form has not found peace, so it still walks the earth.
-----------------------
A ghost is an alleged non-corporeal manifestation of a dead person (or, rarely, an animal or vehicle). It is often thought to be a manifestation of the spirit or soul of a person which has remained on Earth after death. According to some beliefs, a ghost may be the personality of a person after his or her death, and not tied directly to the soul or spirit. Every culture in the world carries stories about ghosts, but they vary across time and place, with disagreements both as to what ghosts are and whether they are just figments of imagination or a part of reality.
-----------------------
A Ghost is a Dead person that didn't move on. Some say they have unfinished business.
---------------------
It is said by some ancient Eastern religions that we have 3 bodies or "coverings"; a gross physical body, a luminous subtle astral body, and an even more subtle casual body.
When a sentient being dies, it looses its gross physical body. The subtle astral body and casual body are left. What we are seeing as a "ghost" is the subtle astral body which is still present. The casual body is much harder to see.
Since we are used to inhabiting the gross physical body, we see the astral body as less real and more ethereal. However, if we happen to lose our physical body, as in death, the astral body would seem more real.
-----------------------
A ghost is a spirit who isn't using or inhabiting a physical body. -----------------

A ghost is potentially the result of a person who has passed away, and their cognitive and subconscious mind has been shared with others throughout their lives. When they passed, certain physical references trigger the prominence of that deceased person's thought in the living. That is why ghosts can not be photographed reliably; they exist within our minds.

-------------------------------
Ghosts are supposedly the manifestation of the souls of the dead in the realm of the living. Often events for which there is no ready explanation are attributed to ghosts (strange sights/noises, technical interference with cameras and the like). And though almost all cultures have the concept of ghosts, there has never been any sound evidence of their existence.
-------------------------------
Ghosts are paranormal spirits that sometimes can't find their way home or still have a deed to accomplish. There are 3 types of ghosts, poltergeist, residual, and intelligent (sorry for the spelling). Poltergeists are ghosts that either, got sent back from Hell or didn't want to give up torturing people, residual spirits are ones that play over like a tape recorder. Intelligent are the ones who touch people, whisper, or move things.
--------------------------
Ghosts are imaginary forms people create, to be able to handle grief, or to draw attention to themselves, or even to make money out of people's hopes that their loved ones aren't just gone forever.. which of course they are.
----------------------------
They won't harm you - they just need help from us because they couldn't go to heaven.
An Additional Point Many people have been saying that they can't hurt you or they are imaginary, but they can hurt you and there have been many reports. And I wouldn't say ghosts, I would say "spirits" It's a much better term for them and really they are spirits that are trapped on earth. There are also poltergeists, demons, etc. These are the unfriendly things that can harm you. The official definition for the word ghost is "an apparition of a dead person that is believed to appear or become manifest to the living, typically as a nebulous image."

How do you get over your fear of ghosts?

You should think practically and logically and make yourself believe that there is no such thing as a ghost. Make your mind strong on this belief and on science.

Ghosts are one's imagination and psychology combined with everyday incidents and stories that make us believe that "Yes! There must be a ghost behind it!". But it is actually the work of your subconcious mind which is difficult to fanthom.

Are any of the Thirteen Ghosts from the movie based off of anyone?

I could be wrong, but I don't think so. The movie Thirteen Ghosts (2001) was actually a remake of a really fun old movie by the same name, which came out in 1960. The movie was about a boy and his family who move into a house that is haunted by thirteen ghosts.

The movie really isn't very scary (it's really campy, actually) but it has a great gimmick to it. The DVD comes with a special "ghost viewing/ghost removing lens" (which is actually just a card with a piece of clear red plastic, and a piece of clear blue plastic). If you look through the red piece, you see the ghosts on the screen, and if you look through the blue piece, you don't (if you just plain look at the screen, without looking through the lens at all, you just see the ghosts very faintly).

Anyway, each of the ghosts has a separate, distinct personality: like, there's an Italian chef ghost, and a headless lion tamer ghost, who has a ghost lion accompanying him, and then there's a ghost that is nothing but a pair of arms holding an axe, another ghost that is just a big head, a lady ghost who always hangs from a noose, etc.

So, I suppose it's possible that the ghosts in the Thirteen Ghosts remake were based on real people. But I think it's more likely that they just followed in the original movie's footsteps and based their 13 ghost characters on those ghosts.

What do you do if you think there is a ghost in your house?

Answer: Then you should seriously consider visiting a psychologist. In my opinion, there is no reason to believe in ghosts.

There are four main options you can choose:

  1. Get out of the house
  2. Ignore the ghost
  3. Live on with the ghost as an aspect of your life (I highly don't recommend do this as it can be dangerous)
  4. Get rid off the ghost (religious people can explain how)

Who is the main character in the ghost whisperer?

The main character is Melinda Gordan. She is married to Jim Clancy. She "hides" her gift of seeing ghosts and she owns an antique shop in Grandview, where she lives. She helps earthbound spirits cross-over into the light because those spirits have some unfinished business with the living. Also under her shop are the tunnels, which come into play a lot in the series.

(the word hides is in quotataion marks because its a secret that isn't well kept, since if you watch and pay attention you will see that Melinda tells at least one or more person/people about her gift)

Is the girl in the Old Chateau in Diamond a ghost?

Yes.It is an Easter egg by gamefreak along with the butler ghost in old chateau.

Correct!

Notice that when she walks she does not use her legs. BUM BUM BUM BAH!!! I can't find the ghost butler I WANT TO! :(

the old butler dude is just ahead when you get in. note, though, that when he walks, he doesnt use legs, also, and you don't actually see him go through the wall. nor is there an item. if there was a point in the girl, then that would make this more interesting, or if you chased the butler, he would eventually serve you goods at a cheap price, if only!

What kind of camera should be used for ghost hunting?

All you have to do is leave the camera on until you see something drift around. To add to this: the easiest way is with a double exposure. Place your camera (one capable of making double exposures) on a secure tripod and place a friend in a chair. Take a meter reading, then stop down one stop below the correct exposure. Take the photo. Have your friend leave. Re-shoot the empty chair at the same exposure. (You can take these in either order; it doesn't matter). The resulting ghost-like image of your friend will be a fake, but so are all photographs of ghosts, by definition. It is impossible to take a verifiably genuine photograph of a ghost because it is too easy to take ungenuine ghosts.
