I personally feel that there's no reason to automatically suggest otherwise. I'm the type of person that likes to believe in things such as this. I've definitely seen dogs bark at "nothing", but I live in the country, this usually occurs outside, so that "nothing" could have just as easily been any kind of animal you could imagine. So it's hard for me to come up with a truly eerie personal example.

However, I cannot say the same for children. My girlfriend has a 3-year-old brother and a 2-year-old sister. I was never around kids before them, and they're totally awesome. But I have definitely seen them act strangely. The boy has become absolutely and completely petrified for no reason whatsoever, and he's normally a very brave and adventurous little guy. I've seen him stand completely still and stare at nothing at all, at least from my perspective, the whole while looking very frightened. I don't know what to make of this myself, but I'm sure the parents among you out there probably know what's up here, being much more accustomed to kids and all. (Note: Not at all my intention to threadjack, just throwing in some related experiences)
