While there is no concrete data about how many people in the world believe in ghosts, many surveys and studies have shown that a lot of people do. Of these a small portion of people even claim to have had some sort of first hand experience with the paranormal.

There are also quite a few places in the world that are popular for being "haunted" and have been studied by experts to determine whether any paranormal activities exist in reality or not.

As we know, most experts say that they have never found any direct evidence of ghosts or spirits or any other kind of supernatural beings. But what if we are missing something?

What if the things we call paranormal are actually just phenomena that we haven't understood yet? What if science will one day be able to describe them? After all, there are actual other phenomena in the universe that we still can't explain!

Keeping An Open Mind

I believe that we must keep an open mind and not dismiss things without any examination at all. Usually that's what many people do, including many scientists when asked about bizarre things like ghosts and spirits.

I have always wondered what could be the best scientific explanation regarding these entities. I don't have any degrees in science, so you would have to excuse me in case of any highly outrageous assumptions or ideas.

What I basically think is that, ghosts could be higher dimensional beings that cross over to ours sometimes and so some people can either feel their presence, or even see them in a shadowy or hazy form.

Many theories in Physics have proven that there are many higher dimensions that exist and we are yet to observe one directly. So could it be that the bizarre happenings that we sometimes hear about that just can't be explained could be a result of these higher dimensions interacting with our own? It's certainly food for thought!
