Default Do you guys believe in hauntings?

I do and I think that some of the most haunted places in the world are in the U.S. I don't claim to know why that is and would like very much to get into a discussion on this topic so feel free to post away. Obviously all views and opinions are accepted

Default RE: Do you guys believe in hauntings?

Considering I've lived in three houses I know for sure were haunted and two others I'm suspicious of, yeah I'd say so.

But most haunted places in the USA? Really? Compared to Europe? Compared to England ALONE? I just wonder what you're basing that on...

Yes, I know haunting are real.

England had to way outclass the USA in hauntings.

Hauntings are real, but the US doesn't have the corner market on activity.

I live in the United Kingdom and I'm from Irish Patronage for what it matters i would just like to say this........

The British Isles is indeed a hotbed of paranormal activity. The House that i live in is an old Victorian RedBrick. The House is enormous in fact it is so big that i only live in 1 room which is spacious in itself the house even has servants quarters. It's the kind of house that a 19th century doctor would live in. Ive had episodes of sleep paralysis but never atributed it the paranormal i guess i was too busy trying to move than to be aware of anything else.

Thing is a few streets from my local is a certain house which burnt down 20 years ago and to this day on certain nights people have been known to see Children banging against the interior bedroom windows of this house.

Also nearby is an Airfileld which legend has it that a deceased Spitfire PILOT from world war 2 can be seen searching the Airfield for his downed plane.

Dont know if these stories are the eact truth but these kind of stories are expected in the UK i supose.

I think there is great credibility in the fact that the USA is a hotbed of paranormal activity as the Native American indians where a very Spiritiual people, they where intune with what was going on in a spiritual sense.

We all all know that the USA was foundered on Genocide and that means a lot of anguished souls.

Who knows ?

Every contemporary nation state on earth was founded after genocidal conflicts. Why pick on Americans?

I'm not.

The amount of paranormal acitivity that takes place in the U.S.A was being discussed. I merely gave my opinion.

The U.S.A is relativley a new nation yet it seems to have a lot of paranormal activity.

Default Re: Do you guys believe in hauntings?

Usually hauntings seem to be related to individuals who have died in the past 100 years or so. Phenomena supposedly related to American history, like Gettysburg apparitions and "haunted Indian burial grounds," are pretty limited in geographic scope and probably make up only a small portion.

Do I believe? Though I can't say for certain I've seen anything, I do believe it's possible. But I don't know this yet.

I just think that the Native American Indians were a very spiritual people moreso than we as a collective society. Their whole Religion was based on spirits. I'm just guessing that this could enter the equation somehow ?
