Have you ever gotten a creepy feeling or heard noises you couldn’t explain? It was probably nothing. But maybe it was a ghost.

Not all ghost stories are scary. Sometimes they can even be comforting. For instance, a message from a dead loved one can make you feel less alone. It’s nice to imagine that your ancestors have your back.

There is no such thing as ghosts. Ghosts are merely demons masquerading as people who have passed. The Bible testifies to this.

I believe in ghost and supernatural powers. I have some experiences about ghost I been had a video and captured their figure they are transparent you cannot see their image but you could see their figure. I also believe that the orbs that we usually see in the photograph are ghosts. I ofetn feel  the presence of ghost but I don’t see them. whenever i feel them I used to have goosebumps, and it really scares me and makes my heart beats so fast. ghost are everywhere its just not all of us are able to see them.

Ghost Rider sequence began.cause, I didn’t want to sell my soul to bogyman.
