Yes I believe...and have had encounters with them since I was three...just like so many others who have posted. I am not real sure why we are so surprised by spirits of the departed visiting us and communicating with us...after all, who in the world do you think Jesus was talking to up there on that mountain when Moses and Elijah appeared to him??? If it could happen to Him, why do we consider it so strange when it happens to us?? And while I don't think we should go looking to talk with spirits/ghosts, if you are allowed that experience, I would take your example of how to respond from Jesus...not a strange experience at all!! They may, like in His experience, have some very important information to tell you about, considering Moses and Elijah spoke to Him about what He was shortly going to face!

I do. When we got back from our trip to San Antonio, I had my pictures developed and in three of the photos that I had taken of the houses by Heritage Square..at the one house on the balcony.. there are distinct 'foggy' outlines of two figures. This was in broad daylight and as far as we can tell nothing reflecting, because it was a cloudy day.

Yep! I sure do!

....and the disciples thought Jesus was a spirit when they saw Him walking on the water!

Ghosts--yes MORE spirits---My Dad passed in 1977 at the age of 56, he ALWAYS wore Old Spice.....I was standing in my living room and all of a sudden I smelled the strongest scent of Old Spice coming from another room....entered the room and it lingered--I said "HI" Daddy---thanks for the visit......and then it was gone...

Another--after I had moved into my apartment--I swear I saw a ghost ofmy Dad checking on me---I said Who are you?? You will be okay here--he said......then he was down the steps.....and then disappeared....creepy--but wonderful

Your post made me smile! At times I think I can feel my golden retrievers that are gone now... same thing, a jump on the bed and sensation of them leaving against me.

Yes, I believe in ghosts too. I think I saw one once.
