Lol I considered posting one of their songs as a response too. Really dig the new album, couldn’t care less how poppy and "untr00" it is.

Not sure. I really want to. I’d much rather be a ghost than nothing at all.

The first one remains my favorite I think. This is probably my favorite song of theirs:

Saw them open for Maiden a few years ago. Too poppy for me.

I've always thought "Tallman's Ghost" was one of the scariest stories 'Unsolved Mysteries' ever did...
However, the paint brush, upside down in the paint can... One of the funniest things, ever!
Creepy rendition of "Silent Night" at 5:38
"Ghosts can't hurt you"?
This is where I completely disagree... If a spirit can yank a lunch box out of your hand, it can throw one at you. OR WORSE, A KNIFE!... And push you down the stairs or over a railing.
Seems like it was about some 'Witch' that was tied to a tree and burned during the Salem witch trials, and her spirit was then attached to that tree... When the tree was cut down and turned into lumber, the lumber was used to make the Bunk Bed, and her spirit went with it.
Yeah, I believe this one.

"The Entity" from 'Unsolved Mysteries'
Personally, I don't believe Dr Roll's BS sounding scientific explanation... I mean it. Seriously? Come On! Why hasn't anyone else experienced that, ever!
But Ghosts or "not"... I think disbelievers would have to agree, their situation isn't a simple case of an old house with creeks and groans. This goes way beyond anything normal.
Just imagine living in THAT house...
Perfect example of why we should be a little more understanding and compassionate towards others having similar experiences. They're not imagining it.

No
Being open to the possibility that they are real is a not the same thing as believing they are real. Until I have good evidence to believe they are real, I don't believe they are real. All we get is vagueness on the issue. Vagueness isn't believable. Give me some compelling evidence and I will believe ghosts are real.
It makes for good stories and good horror movies, but that is about it.

Not sure. I really want to. I’d much rather be a ghost than nothing at all.I am the exact opposite. I would find eternity as a ghost a miserable existence and would much rather cease to exist.

Just imagine living in THAT house... Perfect example of why we should be a little more understanding and compassionate towards others having similar experiences. They're not imagining it. The answer to that question is simple. We don't know. Disbelief isn't the same thing as saying you know for a certainty something doesn't exist. I am a skeptic through and through, but a true skeptic should never claim that they are 100% certain something doesn't exist. My first question would be "how do you have access to this fact about the universe that ghosts don't exist?" Though in casual conversation I would state that ghosts don't exist from my POV and I would would be able to back up why I take that stance. The main reason is that as far as I can tell, consciousness is a product of the physical brain and that is all it is. Every aspect of our consciousness is controlled by the physical brain and when the brain dies it appears that the consciousness ceases to exist. My response to all the videos you posted is "yeah, that is all very strange and creepy, but I can't say anything about it besides I don't know what happened or what it is." It could be aliens with advanced technology playing tricks on us for fun. That is one of the possible options. I think one of the best arguments against ghosts is "what is the purpose of a ghost doing what it does?" Are ghosts bored and just like messing with the living? It sounds very unlikely to me. History is filled with human beings coming to wrong conclusions about stuff they don't understand, going all the way back to the cause of lighting. For almost every ghost sighting and footage, there will be videos debunking and/or giving possible scientific explanations. They only one of the videos that you posted that really makes me think is the camera footage of the guy being pulled out of his bed? My first thought would be that it was manipulated camera footage. The fact that we can't think of how it was done doesn't mean it wasn't manipulated. That is the same as watching a great magician. We can't think of how the magician did what they did, but then they show a video of how it was done.

No. Certainly not in the supernatural sense. There may be some natural phenomena that we don't understand that could account for at least SOME of the ghost claims.

I've said it here before, and will probably say it again......I believe by default just because NOT doing so automatically means you discount ALL of the MILLIONS of encounters people have claimed to experience over the past thousands of years.......they can't ALL be wrong....... can they ??Personally, though science doesn't agree with me, I'm going with the numbers on this one !!

I have had what I think was an experience with a ghost but I chose not sure because how can I be? I know many people who say they have had such experiences, including my mother and my aunts but again - how can you be sure?
