Small snippet of info... This is an article copied from Wired that I think is a great scientific explanation for what many people have experienced as ghosts. I buy it... maybe you don't.

From Wired.com Sept 8, 2003

Scientists have shown that an extreme bass sound, known as infrasound, produces a range of bizarre effects in people including anxiety, extreme sorrow and chills.

Scientists produced the typically inaudible infrasound with a seven-meter pipe and tested its impact on 750 people at a concert. When the sound was present in the music, over 20 percent of the audience reported more unusual experiences, including feeling uneasy or sorrowful, getting chills down the spine or nervous feelings of revulsion or fear. The audience was not told when the inaudible sound was present.
