Ghosts are the presence of the soul, spirit, or the personality of a person
who has died. Rather then, pass over, for some reason ghosts has remained on earth. It is thought the person may not be aware
they have died, or are a lost soul, or the ghosts may refuse to pass over as they face some sort of hell on the other side
due to crimes committed on this side. Ghosts will often take on the look of a misty, semitransparent, or fog-like human form.
Sometimes Ghosts will make its pretense known through moving objects or noises. Those involved in ghost research believe the
ghosts may actually be a form of psychic or mental energy that was left behind. The cities of York and Derby in England are
famous for ghost sightings. In cultures that hold a belief in reincarnation, they believe Ghosts are souls that refuse to
be "recycled", because they have unfinished business to complete first. The Chinese have some very interesting beliefs
on ghosts that include a ghost can become immortal and become a demigod or ghosts can go to hell and suffer for all of eternity.
They believe some ghosts kill people to rob them of their rights to reincarnation. Ghosts can die and become a "ghost
of ghosts". While most people believe in ghosts, others are skeptical. Skeptics claim that often people claim to see
ghosts when their senses are impaired, such as when waking from sleep. They also question the motives of others who claim
to see ghosts. Sometimes people claim to see Ghosts for money. Protection against Ghosts: It is sad Chalcedony and Obsidian
worn on the person will protect against ghosts. Certain metals such as silver are also protective. In addition, salt carried
in your pocket will keep ghosts at bay. Placing an iron rod on a grave will prevent ghosts from rising out of the ground.
Placing an iron horseshoe at the entrance to a building will stop ghosts from entering. Iron nails taken from a tomb and nailed
into a doorway will prevent nightmares. When a person dies in a home all doors, windows and cupboards should be unlocked to
allow the ghosts free passage out of the house and avoid any future haunting. Corpses should always be carried out feet first
so the ghost of the corpse will not return. During the funeral, all furniture in the house must be rearranged so that if the
ghost returns it will not recognize the place and leave. In addition, one must not speak badly of the dead or the ghosts may
come and haunt them.
