Waaaaah, I don't like this thread very much, but I can't stop reading it!! Never had ghostly experiences myself, but my highly superstitious mother swears by them (just realized she's also experienced an Old Hag, but neither of us knew what those were). I can credit a lot of these stories to psychological stuff (at least to make myself feel better), but the stuff that really gets me is when some of you have seen ghosts of people you'd never met before, who obviously exist in and of themselves.
But why the cliches?... that's where my social scientist side steps up... women in wedding dresses, people carrying heavy burdens, little kids... it's sorta like aliens. If ghosts exist, why do they all look/act like the ghosts we see in the movies?
