Ghosts...

So NBC10 had a thing on Ghosts tonight. Travel Channel is doing a thing Live at Gettysburg next Friday. I watch Ghost Hunters way too much.

Here are some links..

NBC10's photos:
http://www.nbc10.com/slideshow/commu...91/detail.html

YouTube evidence from Ghost Hunters at Eastern State Penn (Creepy!):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJjpiXLILnI

YouTube evidence from Ghost Hunters at Fort Delaware (Watch 'til they get to the Infra-Red video.. it's sweet):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyfONclWFUo

EDIT (Adding more links):

YouTube video from CNN, ghost in school gym:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suFfI0R4vhQ

YouTube video from CNN, ghost in a different school:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFZpWtN8a3c

So I kinda do believe in this sorta **** but it bugs me when I see people get photos of "orbs" and say they are ghosts. I was in Gettysburg a few years ago and took photos and saw "orbs" in some shots and not in others. Unless I physically saw a light/orb moving around in the dark, I don't really think they are anything special... Dust maybe? I dunno. I love exploring creepy ass places. I've taken thousands of photos in those places, but have yet to really see anything out of the ordinary. But yah.. what do you all think?

What I don't understand is... ghost hunters claim that there will be a cool temp when a ghost is present. Yet whenever there is a ghost caught, they catch them on thermal...

In the black and white video, I don't see anything...I mean see blackness move, but is that supposed to be a ghost?

I was watching ghost hunters earlier, and there going to be doing the 7 hour live thing again. I watched the last two, and they were actually pretty cool.

The white spots are dust that is reflected when the flash goes off. Ghosts are not real.

I've seen things I swear. In Williamsburg I took the good old Colonial tour and I swear I saw something in a window of one of those houses. Creeped the **** out of me. There has been way too much stuff to happen in life for it to be fake...

i never understood orbs. but as for the thermal...i agree. how is it that the thermal picks up a heated figure with heatspots within the figure...while reading cold spikes in their presence. the thermal would definitely show the contrasting temperatures. Eitherway, i still think the stuff is cool.

Odd how spots on a lense have evolved from spots, to orbs/ghosts.

I am skeptical of this stuff but my old roommate/good friend is a ghost hunter...him and a group of people go out and investigate local places and honestly he has played some audio for me and told me about some other weird things...not saying I believe in ghost but there are def things that are unexplainable....

I'm def. a fan of Ghost Hunters (TAPS). They will spend more time debunking then just jumping to the conclusion that its a ghost. If they have footage they believe in its because they exhausted every other explanation.

The EVP's have been what mostly impresses me. The one with a princess blew my mind. That eastern state one was good too with the footage. Youtube is packed with TAPS vids. Check out that princess one and one where they were at a lighthouse.

i've been to fort delaware. it's a creepy ass place. the top floors aren't safe anymore, so no one is allowed up there (except like the caretaker) & i swore on a night tore once a flare went off and dropped from the top floor and went out when it hit the ground.
There's just some very unexplainable stuff up there. If you ever get the chance, go on the haunted tour they do. it's actually really informing too. The day tour is also nice. you learn about alot of the history.

to keep on topic, i believe in ghosts. my best friend's old house was haunted and so is the new(to her) old farmhouse she just moved into.

In regards to the black cape thing.. they put a person there (in the full episode) and tried to redo it. They couldn't The guy would have to be EXTREMELY short and move in a motion / speed that's basically not possible for a human to do. It was cool ****.

I've never had a personal experience I don't think, but I know people who have. My brother was slapped in the face 3 times one night at his buddies house. He never spend the night there again. His buddy and their friends have ALL experienced **** at that house. It's right off of Huntingdon Pike on the Bryn Athyn / Huntingdon Valley lines in Montgomery County (if you care). My ex g/f has also witness TONS of crazy ****. She lived in a house that she swears was haunted, as does the rest of her fam and friends and relatives who visited. Unrelated to her house, her and some of her friends were in a house people thought was haunted (it's abandoned). They were walking around and heard some crazy stuff. The one guy took a ball he had and threw it down a dark hallway. A few seconds later (no sounds of the ball hitting anything) the ball came flying back and almost hit him. That's creepy stuff IMO.

Also, I really want to do the Fort Delaware night tours. Do they do anything in October? From what I am reading it looks like they close shop on September 28th

I added a few more vid's that've been in the news lately. Check up top!

one time back in highschool a bunch of us slept over a friends house... well, she wasn't really a friend... more like a fat pompous asshole ****... but i digress... a bunch of us were sleeping over her place, pretty much all over the house. the place was said to have a ghost in the basement and that stuff generally happens down there only.

so me and my buddy's younger sister head down there for the night... you know... make kissy kissy... grabbing some skin... the usual fun highschool stuff. well... we here a noise, which totally kills the mood... pitch black down here... stairs creaking, everyone is asleep... the door slowly opens... son of a bitch... a ghost is killing this for me... the light turns on! 0.0!!!

and there stands... asshole ****'s druggy brother... "oops... sorry..." turns off the light and goes back upstairs

Yeah, when I saw them in Hollywood at that one guys house where the Charles Manson murders were, they used the K2 Meter to communicate with them. It was pretty cool to watch the thing respond "yes" and "no" to them using that thing.

I just watched the Princess Episode Reveal and WOW that's crazy. It makes me want to go visit and try it myself. Like he said, it's not a residual haunting, it's intelligent and knows someone else is there talking. That basically opens up so much between this life and if there is one after we leave here. Crazy.
