Plenty of Evidence For Paranormal Phenomena
Media Skeptics (or pseudoskeptics as we call them) are fond of saying, "There's no evidence for any paranormal or psychic phenomena" no matter how much evidence is shown to them, even if it's a mountainful. They always find excuses to deny or dismiss the evidence, even in the most unreasonable and irrational manner, then go back to repeating this claim as though it were a religious Gospel Law that could never be overturned. This is extremely aggravating because it's like trying to reason with someone who chooses to be blind and ignorant, and in total denial of facts and reality. But the reality is that for some popular paranormal phenomena such as ESP or ghosts, there is plenty of long standing...
Types of Paranormal Phenomena
"There are more things in heaven and earth than man can possibly account for," said Shakespeare. Despite the lack of scientific evidence that proves the existence of paranormal phenomena beyond a shadow of a doubt, more than half of all Americans believe in the existence of spirits or paranormal activity.

Have You Seen the Shadow People?
I must admit that I had never heard or had any interest in the Shadow People. I have been a fan of horror since a child, remembering the eerie voice announcing my father's weekend movie. Its single word playing over in my head: "Chiller." My sister and I jumping up and down, hoping to catch a glimpse of what was occurring on the TV screen.

It's a matter of fact, then, to believers and some non-believers, that these occurrences have actually happened. Up till recently these Marian apparitions have belonged to a time past. The famous apparitions at Lourdes, for example, occurred over 100 years ago. Events that happened so long ago can be questionable to many people and they tend to make people lack a certain belief in all that has supposedly been revealed. In June 1981 several visionaries reported Marian apparitions in the present day. The Blessed Virgin Mary, they asserted, was visiting them...
Religious Apparitions have occurred throughout history. Two very good examples or Religious Apparitions that were world-changing were the appearance of Jesus Christ to the Christian-persecuting, Saul of Tarsus, who later began known as the Apostle Paul and the appearance of the Angel Gabriel to Mohammed, who dictated the Koran forming the basis for the Islamic world as we know it today. In the 19th century, Joseph Smith experienced the Religious Apparitions of the Father and the Son, various holy apostles and an Angel named Moroni, who gave him allegedly the location of golden plates. These alleged Religious Apparitions formed the basis of a Church which claims to be the resurrection of the one and...
The question as it was posed; Is it possible to go hunting for "ghosts" for lack of a better word? I believe there are personalities that don't move on the way they should and we interpret them as ghosts. Can we find them or become in tune with where they are? Ghost hunting has become fashionable recently and a subject of interest more and more on current television shows. You can always tell when you are tuning into a ghost hunting show, because usually their exploits are depicted with a "green tint" to the color, and of course, they are mostly filmed at night with the hunters whispering to the mike as if to some confidant lurking in the darkness, since the common assumption is that no self...
