So Tucker wants to know if you believe in ghosts? Do You?
Of course he was afraid to answer. He says a poll shows about 1/3 of Americans believe there are ghosts. Come on...fess up! Do you!

I'll confess... I saw them on two occasions.

4. I put them in the same category I put
bigfoot, UFOs, God, the Loch Ness Monster, and honest politicians.

:evilgrin:

"Don't know."

7. It depends on what you mean by ghost seriously.
I believe in extra dimensional beings call them what you will.
(Ann Coulter is pretty wraith like and malicious and she's not undead no) oh and as far as tucker I think the bow tie is finally cutting off what little oxygen gets to the little brain of his.

9. Scared of them when I was little, had some experiences with the uncanny
Overactive imagination, for the most part. Some things I have not yet been able to explain. But a favorite activity of mine is to look at "ghost pictures" and point out to people why there is nothing supernatural in them.

11. Yes, although I probably
define "ghost" differently than most people.

12. I once communicated with the dead, or thought so, anyway.
But there was no phantasm, no table rapping, no floating horn or trail of ectoplasm, so I guess that wouldn't count as a ghost-type experience. I don't know. The world is certainly strange enough even without them.

14. I don't know, but wouldn't rule it out.
I think there are more dimensions than our limited senses are able to perceive. We can't even know what we don't know.

18. Yeah, why not?
Scientists are starting to talk about multiple dimensions and parallel words so....who knows? Besides...I've listened to Art Bell for around 7 years and I've heard some pretty weird stuff. :)

19. I'll 'fess up...
I've seen ghosts on more than one occasion, and had one talk to me, and scare the ever-livin' shit outta me, too.

Tucker, on the other hand, well, I think he's just a psychic imprint, after all, he certainly acts like less of a human than his co-host.

20. Do you people realize that ghosts don't exist ?
Stop this sillyness.

Perhaps it was sleep paralysis...when did you see this ghost ?

21. When did you see this ghost ? " I'll brave to answer that.
I was sitting in a chair watching TV when I heard a lot of commotion around the corner of the room. We have a metal circular staircase and something bumped into the stairs. It has a very distinctive sound. I figured it was my daughter and her boyfriend fooling around. I called out to her but got no answer. I got up and looked to check out what was going on. To my surprise...no one was there.
I went back and sat down again...then heard more noise so I looked up and saw a moving glow of light on the floor... and believe it or not a dogs (Golden Retriever's) tail was sticking out from the corner wall. It was white but I could see it clearly. If I had looked up a little sooner I may have seen some of his body. I believe it was the "energy" ( for lack of a better word) of our two deceased dogs playing with each other.

So I have to believe in what I saw and heard. So call me nutty!
