Ghosts Know What I Experienced

There have been many instances in which people have claimed to see ghosts. The famous singer Celine Dion has said that she visited the ghost of her late husband. Many other people have claimed to see ghosts as well. It is thought that this phenomenon is caused by wishful thinking, which was first observed by Sigmund Freud in the early 1900s. It is considered a short-term “madness of the mind”.

Psychologists have found that those who believe in the paranormal are more likely to experience unusual feelings and sensations and to draw a conclusion that a ghost is present. Some studies have revealed that these experiences may also be a symptom of larger problems in gray matter. For example, people with schizophrenia and other underlying disorders are more likely to experience ghostly encounters.
