@red I have NO idea what your comment ^^^^ means
MY Reference was that as an OP post supposedly intended to get commentary / discussion going, a YES and a NO rather closed the door to anything other than YES or NO. Ah sorry about that, anyway here's this short excellent vid about ghosts. I like Joe Nickell’s work, even if I don’t always agree with him, but Richard Wiseman handled the anti-supernatural argument better in Paranormality. (Of course, he also had more room to delve into the psychology.) My problem with all this is that it’s usually done by people who have never experienced what they’re discussing and whose theories are incompatible with the experience.

Of course things that haven't been explained yet have happened in the past but that doesn't mean they were caused by ghosts.
The problem with the vast majority of these unexplained happenings is they can't be disproved because there is nothing to investigate. All you have is a person or persons saying "this happened to me". Maybe they are telling the truth, maybe not. Maybe they misinterpreted what they saw/heard/felt maybe not. But something that is not explained because there is no actual evidence to examine is not evidence of ghosts.
It's like trying to prove a negative. You can't prove that ghosts or bigfoot don't exist but there is no conclusive evidence that they do exist.

On more of a serious note than my previous post I think it is possible they do. I have seen weird things and heard weird noises over the years and a lot of people I know have too and I woke up shaking one time at this place we were staying at and it was like was like somebody was doing it to me but my Wifey was asleep and that was really creepy.  So... you had a dream someone was banging you.
A) Yeah, that happens. Nothing supernatural about that
and
B) tell me more...
 No. I did not mean that at all. What I meant by somebody was 'doing it' to me was somebody was shaking me and I was woken up that way I will have you know. Take your mind out of the gutter young Lenard.
