recesses of ancient Ireland all the way to the brightest most populated cities in North America.
Folklore abounds with legends of those who have passed over leaving a lingering trace of their former selves or their personality. Some claim that an specter is not just a trace or residue of the personality, but the actual soul of the person persisting without a physical body.
What causes a living being to become a ghost? Does it occur only when death coincides with a traumatic event, or could there be other less tragic reasons? Some believe ghosts exist because they have some unfinished business in their lives, while some believe that everyone is a ghost as the soul is separable from the shell of the biological human form.
We have begun to receive reports of haunted locations, so we're making a place to make it easier for our visitors to write to us. If you know of a haunted place, feel free to join in and send us your report.
