Never seen one myself but I know people that have. My grandmother was one of the most religious people you ever want to meet and she would swear up and down there was an old farmer that haunted a house she lived in when younger. She told many times of having a conversation with him on her front porch swing one evening.
When we first moved from out of our old house (origionally my Great Grandmas house) Mom and dad had renters in there for years. One was a single lady that was having alot of troubles in her life. She told of looking up one night and seeing an old lady sitting in the chair across from her at the kitchen table. They talked and the lady told her that everything was going to work out for her and be all right. She said they talked on for a little while and she eventually looked away for something and when she looked back the lady was gone. At the time the lady had never even been in my parents new house so there was no way she could have seen a pic or even known about Grandma Tilley. A day or somafter the encounter she told my Mom about the experience. When asked to describe the lady she described my Great Grandma Tilley in pretty good detail, right down to the cloths she typically wore. After the description Mom showed her a pic of her Grandma Tilley and the woman about dropped over when she saw it. She said that without a doubt that was the lady she talked to. At the time Grandma Tilley had been dead for something like 25 or 30 year. After that lady moved out single guy moved in. He had a friend from out of town came up to visit and was staying with him for a few days. The friend got up in the middle of the night for something and got so scared he packed his stuff and left without saying a word. When the guy renting the place got up with him a day or so later he said all his buddy told him was that he had seen something and had never been so scared in his life. He said that he knew he couldn't stay in the house a minute longer so he left right then and there. The next renters were a young couple. They never saw anything that we heard about but they did experience doors opening and closing by themselves, object being moved when they weren't home or were asleep, etc We lived in that house for over 20 years ourselves so we knew what kinds of things happened with the old house and why and the things they experienced were well beyond the relm of drafts moving the doors, etc. So it had to be something unknown doing everything.
Now do I personally believe in ghosts, I don't know. While I've never experienced anything myself I do believe is that there is something going on that we can't explain but what it is I really can't say.
