I thought i'd initiate a thread for all y'all jokers on the occassion of All Hallows Eve.
On our local am talk radio station, they had a guest today, Chris Woodyard, author of a book now in several volumes,
Haunted Ohio. Here's a
link[/color] to a site with an excerpt of her work. She stated that she has seen, and even spoken with ghosts. I found the show very interesting and entertaining despite my scepticism. I noted with interest that she does not give a traditional description of ghosts. She says that all she has seen appear corporeal, and are not transluscent or transparent, and that she has frequently seen or even spoken with someone who she has later concluded is a ghost, because she was told that no one could have been there. For example, she said she had visited Fort Meigs, the site of a massacre of Kentucky volunteers in 1813. She saw a man standing on an earthwork traverse waving, but when she mentioned this to an officer at the fort, he both told her that no one else could have been there, and that in 1813, men in the fort saw that the Kentucky volunteers were walking into an ambush, and got up on the traverse to wave and holler, trying (unsuccessfully) to warn them.
At any event, what is your take? Do you believe in ghosts? Have you seen any? This is not set-up, i'm not trying to draw anyone out in order to ridicule them. I'd like to know what you think.
