Ghosts are 100% real.scientists have proven facts and have seen ghosts in real life and so they are 100% real! By Scientists liana!

Ghosts in video games

Maybe add a section about ghosts being in video/horror games for the media sections, like mentioning Boos in Mario, or The different ghost types in Phasmophobia WhoTheFluer (talk) 16:25, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I would support this as ghosts have seen a revival in videogaming as an arts medium, especially due to games such as the mentioned Phasmophobia which also sparked other projects in return. Argacyan (talk) 23:18, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Are ghost real ???

Well… are ghost real ?? Well people tell that ghost aren’t real but they are because I myself have been encounter three times. Ok so when I was 10 years old my house part of the wall was being painted and I got home from school at 3 and I went straight to the washroom upstairs and when I on the tap I heard a little girls voice she said “Hello” and I didn’t see anyone because I panicked and I ran downstairs. 43.250.241.217 (talk) 12:56, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fiction tag

Owen250708, you added a tag to this article today indicating that it "may fail to make a clear distinction between fact and fiction." Which specific part of this article do you think fails to make a clear distinction between fact and fiction? The article appears to make clear that what is being discussed is a concept that has no scientific evidence for its existence, but which has existed in a wide variety of cultures and belief systems throughout human history. It discusses the (lack of) scientific evidence for ghosts, ghosts in the mythology of various cultures, ghosts in the mythology of various religions, the changing aspects of ghostlore in various historical eras. I do not see anywhere in the article where it asserts ghosts are "real" or fails to make clear that stories and beliefs are being discussed, rather than hard facts. I'm going to remove the template. If there is a specific section of the article that you think fails to make a clear distinction between fact and fiction, please replace the template in that section, rather than for the whole article. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 18:18, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ghost are real

Ghost is real 96.224.238.3 (talk) 03:13, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@96.224.238.3 there is more to the afterlife than we already know. James765432 (talk) 18:23, 8 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

really dead? Not only!

According to mysticism/esoterism, New Age, paganism, etc., when someone goes to sleep and dreams, they go to the emotional/astral plane in their astral body, same/synonmous type of body dead people have (and some theories on up to mental plane but that's usually called mind, not ghost, except maybe in some similar German.) Others might say ghosts are on etheric plane but the immaterial can be considered one substance so whatever 'plane' term doesn't entirely matter. In other words a ghost could just be a being that's not in a body right now or is focusing on emotions. I haven't heard much usage of calling 'astral body' 'ghost' but the general concept is detailed and is likely an early modern or (translated) ancient idea . --dchmelik (t|c) 19:42, 13 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Dchmelik sleeping isn't death. there is a big difference. James765432 (talk) 18:25, 8 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
