Reply #34: I don't think that would be a huge consideration for me [View All]

We had ghosts here for years - they made a lot of noise downstairs. Banging doors and sounds like moving furniture, sometimes it would sound like someone walking up or down the stairs and once or twice we distinctly felt someone sit on the sofa with us. Sometimes we'd hear voices - they always sounded like they were quarreling except when we heard a child - the child always sounded like he/she was crying.

So I got into the habit of speaking to them. Every time I went downstairs, which seemed to be where they mostly hung out, I'd say hello, ask how they were doing, if it was too cold or hot for them, whatever. Over time, they got quieter and now we haven't heard them for at least a couple of years. I don't know - maybe they just wanted some validation. :P

I can share my home with spirits. It's all the same to me.
