There are many reports of animal ghosts - ie the headless coachmen legends, ghost dogs, etc etc

Many reports of people who lose pets who claim to still see them after they die.

Of course you can believe or disbelieve, but it is simply false to say there are no such reports of these things.

Since some people insist on sources for everything: here is one book. A quick search on Amazon revealed several pages of such:

Pet Ghosts: Animal Encounters from Beyond the Grave: Amazon.co.uk: Joshua P. Warren: Books Pet Ghosts: Animal Encounters from Beyond the Grave: Amazon.co.uk: Joshua P. Warren: Books

If you said there was no proof you might be correct, or at least hold a defensible position.

But to say there is no evidence of ghosts existing is simply ridiculous. There are 100,000's of reports of ghost sightings. Studies in UK and US show something like 10% of people believe they have witnessed a ghost. Do you really propose that the witness statements of thousands upon thousands of people is not evidence?
