Ghost

DEFINITIONS

Ghost: Although a ghost is classically the spirit or astral body of a person now deceased (often recently deceased) and that has not yet “moved on” to another plane, it is now a general term for any sort of disembodied spirit.

Traditionally, ghosts stay near (“haunt”) the location where they lived before death. The more the deceased feels like they have “unfinished business” (seeking forgiveness, justice, love, revenge, etc.), the more they will make themselves known. The experience of the living encountering ghosts is consistent throughout history. As a result, many investigators with a scientific bent have tried to come up with explanations other than the survival of the personality for the presence of ghosts.
