Hey everyone just wondering what perspective you look at the paranormal, whether as in the title if it's more of parapyschological point of view or spiritualism?
I myself usually look at it from parapyschology, and this because I believe in ghosts but not really sure about Ouija boards or summoning ghosts or anything like that... Be nice to know how other people look at it. :) |

Hi 
Im pretty similar to you I believe in ghosts however as I am a psychology student I tend to look at from a parapsychology view, I believe there are many fakes out there when it comes to ghosts/ ghost stories. Whether that be peoples accounts of ghost sightings or mediums claiming they can see and contact ghosts.
But like I said I believe they exist in some form or other unfortunately there are a lot of people out there that are willing to play on this belief to decieve people and make money, which makes me skeptical of some ghost stories or seemingly haunted places. But no one said believing was easy  with all these fakes out there it just makes it all that more incredible when you come across something genuine.
Hope my ramblings have made some sense  |

The paranormal is a big umbrella and encompasses a large range of subjects. For example, ghosts are classic paranormal phenomenon but so too are things like Bigfoot and Lake monsters. UFOs are sort of inbetween.
Can you be more specific?
