I agree about the TV shows, but the ratings will decline as people tire of them. I’m hoping a few of the best remain for quite awhile, but that’s in the hands of the viewers.

Regarding ghosts hurting people: I’m not sure what to think. I believe that ghosts can cause a very small amount of pain, injury or other physical influence, but it usually lasts only briefly. The number three is often regarded as significant in terms of demonic activity, as well as the use of the number in various spiritual contexts (the Trinity, the triads, etc.).

The consistency makes it easier for people to fake this on TV and in real life. However, I’ve seen enough evidence that I believe some of it is genuine.

Thanks for your comments!

I need a life. I shouldn’t know all this! LOL.

I still believe in this stuff. There are just way too many eyewitness accounts. I mean even just accounts of “Dogs” being able to see something we can’t. You hear this all the time. Same with batteries dying or cold spots, etc. I can NOT believe that every single piece of evidence or eyewitness is either “FAKE” or “MISTAKEN”./ I just can’t come to a logical reason to say those are the ONLY two possibilities. That people are either lying or mistaken. Maybe some people are crazy but that goes under “mistaken”. Point is, this stuff is real. But, I’d still like to experience it myself to prove it to myself. But, there is just way too much evidence to the contrary. Again and again we ahve similar pieces of evidence – in science that means proof! Yet, people believeing in God and in the Bible is more accepted than believing in Ghosts and UFOs where there is more evidence. (Altho Ghosts and the Bible go hand in hand..). But I say I believe in “Ghosts” i get laughed at. My neighbor says “I believe in God and the Bible” gets praised for being a good person. But, I’m the crazy one? Doesn’t make sense.

Also, Ghosts can hurt people – Why do all the “injuries” look the same when a Ghost supposedly attacks a human? Why are they usally just THREE SCRATCHES? Again, this time it would mean every account of someone being attacked by a ghost was lying or mistaken yet all the injuries look the same?? As a budding Mathematician, I believe in numbers and law of averages! This stuff is real !!!

Thanks for the comments, and the time you took to share your experiences. You should write a book! You’ve led a colorful life with experiences that could probably help others, too.

I will talk about places that charge higher fees once they become famous through TV shows, etc. It’s a difficult issue, made worse when the grants and funding those sites received is jeopardized by budget cuts.

That said, I’m stunned when I hear about sites that are charging outrageous fees to allow people to “investigate” them… often with astonishing restrictions that would prevent serious research.

It’s one thing to pay a fee to investigate haunted locations as part of an organized event with additional features such as talks by experts, access to professional researchers & celebs, and so on.

It’s something else when it’s a clear get-rich-quick effort by the location. That will sour many people on visiting at all, and I think it will cost the site dearly in the long term.

I hope to see you again soon, and I’m looking forward to your new music projects!
