The creepy figures in the corridors of ancient castles are not ghosts, but something completely different. How do you determine that you are in front of a "real" ghost, and what to record on a tape recorder to drive the ghost out of the house? All this was explained to Pravda. Ru by the director of the Center for the Study of the Paranormal, professor at the Institute of Parapsychology, member of the Academic Council of the Rhine University Loyd Auerbach.
When do ghosts usually appear?
There is no specific time of day when ghosts appear. However, there is a trend that people see ghosts when their habitat arrives at rest. This usually happens either at dawn or in the evening. The opinion that ghosts appear at midnight is wrong. People usually see ghosts for several days after the death of someone close to them. They not only see, but also hear, feel the smell of a person close to them who has left this world.
How should you behave if you saw a ghost?
Try to be as polite as possible. Ask him what it is doing here and what he needs. Ask how you can help him. Ghosts cannot harm us physically. Their sudden appearance can only scare us, and this is the reaction of our own psyche. Ghosts are the same people who just left their physical shell. Each of them have their own character. If, as humans, they were calm and neutral, then their behavior will remain the same.
Are there ways to get rid of the ghost living in your home?
Promotional video:
Just talk to him. Try to find out what he needs and try to help. Explain to him that it violates your personal space, thereby causing some inconvenience. If this does not help, then do not forget that these are the same people whom you can simply survive. For example, you can play the same recording on a tape recorder for a long time. The ghost can quickly get bored with it, and it will go away.
Are ghosts aggressive and can they do harm?
Aggressive ghosts can only be at the verbal level. They cannot cause physical harm. However, ghosts can be very frightening, as a result of which a person can harm himself. Some ghosts, due to their bad nature, can be rude, thereby traumatizing the human psyche.
Is it true that ghosts live in most of the old castles?
Not at all necessary. Ghosts usually live near the body of the deceased. What people often see in old castles is usually the so-called "records" of events and people who lived there many years ago.
Can you catch a ghost?
No one has ever made such statements. Since today we know practically nothing about the physics of consciousness, it is practically impossible even to take at least some steps in order to try to catch a ghost.
How to distinguish a ghost from a hallucination?
It is quite difficult. Ghosts are inherently hallucinations. However, the source of these hallucinations is beyond our consciousness. The signal comes from outside. Most often from the ghosts themselves.
