I don’t personally. I just don’t understand how or why they would exist. I think the remain so prevalent in stories because the supernatural exists to give abilities and help in situations one can’t usually get out of.

They obviously exist because people die and become spirits. Most people don't believe because they have never been spiritually connected to them and that's normal.

I don’t believe in ghosts because they don’t seem like the would exist in our world. Those that have supposed to have seen one I think may have saw something else that they can’t explain so they label it a ghost. It remains so prevalent in our stories because they make for a good story to explain what we can’t explain.

Honestly if ghosts aren’t real then ghostbusters lied. Ghosts are usually portrayed as pretty scary so using them in stories has always been a good way to add a little fright. If ghosts are real then that would make those stories even scarier because there is a chance that they are real.

Yes because sometimes things happen that people can’t explain. I think they make a good story in folklore. They also are fun to talk about.

I watch supernatural so of course I believe shit goes bump in the dark. Never seen anything, but I hear things.
Jake Hayden

Objectively a debatable comment.

No I personally do not believe in ghosts because it has not been proven by science and all of these years that ghosts stories were invented but I think they remain prevalent in stories because it is interesting to read and hear about.
Griffin Mylan

I can agree with this one.

I don’t believe in ghost or the supernatural. I have heard many different stories about ghost and the supernatural but have never experienced those types of things. Many authors talk about ghost and the supernatural to add more interest the story.
Ariana Williams

It does add some interest.
Preston
2/3/2021 10:44:14 am
I see
Darian

Yes I do. If we exist, animals exist and even weird fish in the sea we don't even know about then ghosts definitely exist. They are still in stories because people have had experiences with them and believe in them.
Taija
2/3/2021 10:40:54 am
I think they are real. Nobody really knows if they’re real. Ghosts make the story scarier and more interesting.
Paige
2/3/2021 10:42:55 am
Yeah I agree
Paige
2/3/2021 10:41:08 am
Yes I do because some things happened that no one can explain and it makes funny story’s to talk about

I do not believe in the supernatural. Most weird things can be logically explained. They stay prevalent because they’re interesting.

I do not believe in ghosts because I have not seen any substantial evidence proving the existence of a ghost. The supernatural are a popular part of media and culture because of the mystery that surrounds them. We don’t know much about ghosts at all, so it’s fun to imagine what they might look like or how they might act.

False
Della Porter
2/3/2021 10:42:25 am
yes I believe in the supernatural because there is things that no one can explain and there is creepy stuff that happens that no one can explain either.
Aubrey
2/3/2021 10:43:59 am
I agree
Della

I believe there is always going to be spirits traveling the earth having unfinished business. I also think there are evil spirits that are sent from hell to ruin you if you’ll let them.
Aubrey

I believe in the supernatural. I think there’s a lot of things that happen that people can’t explain that could be linked to spirits. Also there is evidence that many cultures around the world all believe in some sort of spirit.
Della Porter

I do not believe in the super natural given there is no concrete evidence. I think they’re incorporated into culture to allow an easy route out of unexplainable scenarios. If ghost are real they could also be a way to connect to the dead.
Brooke
2/3/2021 10:46:15 am
Yes I think so because some things happen that wouldn’t make sense and no one could explain what happened. It goes through forklord really well because it gives people excitement, makes their heart drops, and it’s fun to learn about what created it.
Karissa

I do believe in ghosts. However, I don’t believe in them the way that they are seen these days. They are not creepy or haunting. Most people believe in ghosts so they have an excuse to be scared of certain situations.

Yes I do because some things happened that no one can explain. It also makes funny story’s to talk about. There are some interesting things in this world. Some that can’t be explained and some unknown things. Leave a Reply. |
