What I want to know is why do ghosts only ever come out at night or when the lights are turned off? :hmm:
And why on earth aren't they naked? Didn't their shirts and pants get into heaven either?

Look, I believe that people think they see ghosts, and that there are things out there that many think science can't explain, but submit a ghost story to actual skeptics (such as the crew at the JREF forums), and it'll get shot down pretty quickly, more often than not. It's actually very fascinating to listen to/read skeptical explanations of "inexplicable" phenomena.

As for ghost hunters, some are probably honest and with good intentions, but I wouldn't trust them as proof of anything.

Can we get the ghosts of Roy Scheider and Robert Shaw to attend, too?

Some of those ghost voices sounded a lot like someone talking through a speaking tube.

EVP is actually pretty faulty, despite what I used to think. It's either a hoax OR you're picking up a transmission from something (such as an airplane or radio station; cell phones can even be picked up!).

After visiting his site, I can pretty much draw the conclusion that it's a fake entirely. Listen to this bulletin from his main page under the "FYI" section:

Did US Astronauts participate in a top secret exchange program of twelve US military personnel to Serpo, a planet of Zeta Reticuli, between the years 1965-78 ?Serpo Project

I stopped there, closed the tab, and began bursting out in laughter. This guy probably thinks there is an alien civilization on Mars, we never landed on the moon, and M. Night Shyamalan's "The Sixth Sense" is a documentary about an actual event that occured during the 90s.:rotfl:

Fraud all the way around. Banging noise was his buddy upstairs, he has horrible acting (listen to his tone when he speaks; he pretends to be scared, but anybody who has watched a second of VH1 knows that it's nothing more than sh***y, B-acting), EVPs sound like somebody talking into a microphone and editing it. I can sum it up pretty easily.

This reminds me of that Sci-Fi show "Ghost Hunters". They always do their shows in the dark, they pretend a bunch of freaky stuff happens to them, and then they come out in the end and say they never found anything.

I think my favorite is how they go, "Oh Jesus! Did you see that? What the hell was it?!" Well, I can't quite frankly say, buddy, because the ****ING CAMERA IS ALWAYS CONCENTRATED ON YOU. TURN IT AROUND. I WANT TO SEE WHAT'S GOING ON, YOU IDIOTS.

Okay, I can believe in strange stuff, I can believe in really beyond-insane strange stuff, but THAT, whoever wrote that needs a psychologist, or a shot in the head...

He's some no-life conspirator and ghost hunter who lives in a trailer, FFS!:rotfl:

Yep, he needs help.

It's hilarious at first, but then when I remember that they actually believe this horse ****, I get mad. If only they still executed conspirators like the used to... I don't know whether to blame their topics and posts on sheer stupidity or brainwashing from their paranoid parents OR on their irresponsibility in not properly administering their medication.

I have a general rule when it comes to conspiracies, I don't dismiss it as long as it makes some kind of sense, this is obviously not the case
