Ghosts

"Do you believe in ghosts? If so, have you ever seen one?"

I believe in souls. I don't believe they hang around on earth, and I certainly don't believe in psychics, mediums, Ouija boards or Tarot readings.
If I'm in my basement at two in the morning, it can be pretty scary, but I don't think there's anything in my basement darkroom except piles of newspapers and junk.
I am pretty skeptical about the EVP theory because they use the same arguments for ghostly voices on the radio and TV that they do about hearing voices in the shower. Sure. And there's ghostly messages in the "braille" on my stucco ceiling, too.
At any rate, I think a lot of these "haunted houses" are really issues of houses settling (shifting floorboards, etc.), excited imaginations, and merry pranksters.
