Such a phenomenon as ghosts frightened not only ancient people, it is known even today. There are places where the likelihood of encountering ghosts is quite high, most often these are old houses, sometimes places of battles, or cemeteries. Until now, official science has not carried out serious studies of this phenomenon, denying the possibility of its existence. Nevertheless, not only eyewitnesses regularly see ghosts, cameras also record them from time to time, causing considerable excitement.
Phantom battles
While on the island of Crete, you can witness a unique phenomenon. From time to time, at dawn, a mirage appears from the side of the sea, in which hundreds of people fight to the death. At the same time, the sounds of battle are even heard - the ringing of weapons, shouts. The mirage moves towards the coast and disappears near the castle of Franca-Castello. At the same time, the picture of the battle is so vivid that it can frighten an unprepared person. Locals believe that this ghostly battle is a depiction of a battle that once took place between Greeks and Turks.
In 1862, one of the bloodiest battles of the American Civil War took place, when 24 thousand people died. This happened in Tennessee when General Johnson's army attacked General Grant's army. The battle was so fierce that the water in the river flowing there was red with blood. Locals claim that from time to time they still see this battle, in which ghosts are fighting, and the river at this moment turns red again. Such phenomena are also called chronomirages and are found in many parts of the world.
The mystics claim that the restless souls of the people killed there live on the battlefield. And these souls fight with each other again and again, unable to find peace.
Specialists studying anomalous phenomena have their own hypothesis explaining such ghost wars. According to her, each such battle is clearly tied to a certain place - the one where the real battle took place. During the death of a person, psychic energy is released. If a large number of people die in battle at the same time, such a bunch of energy is especially powerful and does not dissipate over time, being imprinted not only in time, but also in space. As a result, under certain circumstances, this imprint appears as a kind of ghostly "film".

Haunted houses
However, the most likely meeting place with a ghost is abandoned houses. As a rule, they are notorious, and unless absolutely necessary, people try not to visit them. Often these houses become after tragic accidents or murders. As a result, eyewitnesses claim that they see ghostly figures and hear voices there, despite the fact that the premises are empty for many years. Such ghosts are called sedentary, since they are tied to one place where different people see them.
So, in Moscow, on Malaya Nikitskaya Street, there is a house that once belonged to Beria. Witnesses claim that from time to time at night they hear the sound of a car approaching the house and heavy footsteps, although there is no one on the street. It is believed that this ghost of Beria comes back here again and again.
No less interesting is the building that houses the French embassy. Once it belonged to the merchant Igumnov, who, according to legend, in a fit of jealousy immured his mistress in the wall. Her ghost appears from time to time in the corridors of the building, frightening people.
There are many similar places, most often such houses are now empty, in some there are museums, hospitals, or scientific institutions. There are also ghosts in the apartments where people live. Most often, tenants do not stay in such houses for a long time, and the owners often rent them out at a very low price. The spirits of the former owners who committed suicide or died after a serious illness most often live in such apartments.
Information ghosts
There is information about meeting ghosts not of real people, but of fictional characters. So, the most famous is the case of meeting the ghost of the famous detective Sherlock Holmes on Baker Street. Tourists walking there noticed a recognizable figure in old clothes and mistook it for an actor. But they were very surprised when the detective simply disappeared into thin air.
Researchers of anomalous phenomena have a hypothesis explaining this kind of ghosts. According to their version, the image of an object that does not exist in reality can be generated by the consciousness of a large number of people. This means that the ghost of the detective could well be seen in reality, since he is a popular character known to fans of the detective all over the world. Such a ghost is a kind of information matrix that exists thanks to the psychic energy of people - fans of this literary hero.
There are many hypotheses regarding the nature of ghosts. Which of them is correct is still unknown, but it cannot be denied that the phenomenon really exists and requires thoughtful analysis and research.
