That's at the heart of the problem isn't it? These experiences tend to be unrepeatable at best and usually personal / subjective, so they are unconvincing to anyone with a solid no-nonsense objective world view. My mother was brought up in the 1930s in a big old pub that my grandparents ran, and she had stories of ghost activity there - knockings, footsteps along the old corridors in the part they lived in, dusty light bulbs detaching and floating unbroken to the ground in the cellars with clear fingerprints on them - my gran was the main target of these activities though mum experienced some as well. When we were kids we never used to take these tales seriously, but it was obvious to me even then that my gran was a bit unusual. Anyway when I was older my father told me that when he first started going out with mum her folks were very opposed (religion clashes). Gran used to follow them about psychically from 30 miles away and could tell my mother everywhere they'd been and play back and comment (disparagingly!) on their conversations - it freaked her out! It's hard to discount this kind of direct witness experience when someone you are close to and trust tells you about it.
Yes...more seems to be subjective/personal like you said than not.
There is an even smaller body of actual recorded evidence, but even the best of it has been analyzed to death and/or dismissed outright.
A majority of people in the world actually do believe in “ghosts” or the paranormal of some kind.
I mean...even those stories I have where there were witnesses and actual physical things thrown or hit somehow still boils down to the word of 4 people at most, but usually it’s me and another person...and with nothing recorded, well, they remain stories, but not really proof, to everyone else but me and the other witnesses.
That is amazing about your Gran!
She sounds like someone you wouldn’t dare try and tell a fib to...oh man, just start walking to the tree now to pick out your switch..hahaha.
That’s really cool!
Thank you for all the likes BTW!
