Full disclosure: I am a sceptic but I love ghost stories. My thought is there are likely logical explanations for most if not all accounts of people seeing ghosts. Now, when my daughter was 3ish she would say “my grandpa with the long hair came to see me last night.” She said he didn’t say anything and just looked at her. This happened several times over the course of a few months. My father passed away in 2012 and had long hair most of his adult life up until he passed away. We have a few pictures of him and I’m sure we told her this was your grandpa at different times so I thought she was either pretending or dreaming. She is now five. Her great aunt, Millie, who she is named after, passed away a few months ago and we had our first discussion with her about death While she doesn’t exactly get it, she knows Millie is not coming back. The other day she said “someone with Millie’s shoes and hair was in my room last night.”. We asked if she said anything or if she was scared and she said no to both. She said she just looked at her. Obviously there lots of possible logical explanation but the hair and shoes comment does make me wonder because of the specificity and Millie’s shoes and hair were both unique. Anyway, I’ve inched closer to the belief side because of this.
