Ghosts Spirits & Hauntings Types

What are ghosts, spirits & hauntings? What are the different types of these entities? So
we can make things easier to understand, lets briefly talk about our universe, dimension
& plane of existence. If we have a better understanding of our surroundings, we can
better understand these phenomena and how it's possible for ghosts, spirits & hauntings
to exist in our world. Scientific facts and leading theories are great places to start.
The Universe
The universe is made of energy. Everything around you is energy when broken down to
it's purest form of subatomic particles including yourself. Energy cannot be totally
destroyed, it just changes form. When you are born, a spark of energy brings you into
this world, and within our universe are other dimensions or planes of existence. There
are many doorways to these worlds and black holes will soon prove this. Astro
physicists agree black that holes exist and we now have the technology to create them
with particle accelerators like the Large Hadron Collider near Geneva. A black hole is a
perfect example of how anything is possible in this universe because all the laws of
physics go out the window when you reach the center, which is called the Singularity.
Leading scientists agree the singularity is a very likely place to enter another dimension
or plane of existence. This gives a great argument that doorways to other worlds do
exist and how such phenomena like ghosts, spirits & hauntings are scientifically
possible on our dimensional frequency in a universe made of energy.
Everything in this Universe has energy
Everything in this Universe has purpose
Everything in this Universe is connected
Ghosts
What are ghosts? Our theory is that ghosts are the energy of a person or animals soul
that once lived. Ghosts exist in between our dimension and the next, like a radio signal
that isn't quite coming in clear on our dimensional frequency. They have not fully
crossed over to the spirit realm. There are multiple reasons why ghosts make
themselves known to us and how they interact with the living is usually determined by
what personality characteristics they had when they where alive.
Ghost Personality Characteristics
Ghosts were once human, just like you and I. It is believed that you keep your
personality characteristics when you die. For example, if you where an evil person in
life, you will be the same as a ghost. Mean spirited ghosts usually torment the living at
haunted locations, feeding off the victims fear energy. The same goes for good people.
If you were a loving person in life, you will be a loving ghost. Good spirited ghosts are
usually very protective of families that live in haunted locations.Remember not all ghosts
are bad.

Why Ghosts Are Here

There are multiple reasons why ghosts make themselves known to us and why they are
still here. However, there doesn't have to be a particular reason, sometimes they just
happen.It can happen to anyone, at any age and remains a mystery as to why.
Crisis Apparitions
Crisis apparitions are usually a one-time paranormal experience, when a ghost is seen
at the time of it's death by family & friends as a way of saying goodbye or giving
important information. For example, your watching tv in your living room after visiting
your mother in the hospital, and turn around to see her standing over you smiling and
then she vanishes. A second later, the phone rings and when you answer, her doctor
tells you she has just passed. If someone visits you more than once to give you
information or comfort, that is a good sign they have progressed to your self appointed
guardian angel. We will get more in depth about this in the spirit section.
Ghosts That Are Unaware They Are Deceased
Ghosts that are unaware that they are deceased, go about their business as if they are
still living. They do not understand they have passed. A great example is the movie "The
Others". The ghosts portrayed in the movie believe the living are the ghosts.
Sometimes, ghosts cant see the living but instead feel their presence. This can cause
stress on the ghost as well as the living and happens often when people move into the
house of a recently deceased person, usually an elderly person who lived and died
alone in the final years. The ghost sees the new comers as invaders, but simply talking
to the ghost about their death can help them cross over.
Ghosts With Unfinished Business
Ghosts with unfinished business can linger in this world for numerous reasons. Like a
father making sure his children succeed in life despite his sudden death. There are
many cases involving victims of foul play unable to cross over until justice has been
served. Another example would be of a recently deceased lover making sure their
partner finds happiness and moves on.
Ghosts that are trapped or lost
These types of ghosts usually know they are dead, but for one reason or another cannot
cross over yet. Some may fear moving on because of the person they were in life, or
they fear leaving what is familiar to them. Some ghosts may be trapped in fear and held
captive by another ghost or evil spirit, like in a murder suicide haunting. Other ghosts
may be trapped at a location because an evil spirit or ghost may have drove them to
suicide. Dark entities feed off the fear energy of ghosts and the living. A common
example of a lost ghost could be someone who died abroad and is now trying to find

their way home.

Vengeful Ghosts
An example of a vengeful ghost would be if a women was murdered by a male and now
as a ghost only torments or attacks males when they are present at the haunted
location.
Hungry Ghosts
In Chinese/ Hindu Buddhist belief, the Hungry Ghosts are said to come back to this
realm for reasons such as to visit their families or old homes. In Taoism religion, hungry
ghosts are deceased people that in one way or another did not find everything they
needed in the afterlife. These ghosts will come back to feed off victims fear energy. It is
believed that leaving offerings of food, drink & money will appease them, so they will
leave in peace.
Residual Ghosts
Residual ghosts usually live out their final hours over and over again. Residuals most
often show no intelligence or self awareness, they will go right past or through you
without a flinch. Many believe it was their emotional energy that left an imprint or
recording on our dimensional frequency, like a tape recorder. One example would be of
someone getting hit by a train on a full moon night and now every time there's a full
moon the ghost is seen walking the tracks.
Child Ghosts
Child ghosts are the ghost of children that have passed for one reason or another. This
type of paranormal activity is very sad for obvious reasons. These types of ghosts are
usually lonely and seek attention, inadvertently terrifying people by making toys or other
objects move. Some believe these ghosts are actually demons in disguise.
Ghostly Sounds and Smells
Ghostly sounds like knocking, screams, music, moaning, and voices are quite common
around haunted locations. These sounds can be residual or intelligent. Knocking is an
old way of communicating with the dead. Ghostly smells are also a very common
occurrence in areas with high levels of paranormal activity and they can be residual or
intelligent as well. Perfumes, cigar smoke and food smells are just a few of the scents
one may encounter. Beware of foul smells like rotting garbage or sulfurs, to name a few.
Foul smells like these could mean dark entities, demons or very evil ghosts are making
themselves known.

Animal Ghosts
Animal ghosts are the ghosts of deceased animals and can remain in this world for
numerous reasons, like their human counterparts. Animal spirit guides are different than
animal ghosts. Look in the spirit section for more information on animal spirit guides.
Living Ghosts
A living ghost can be when the soul leaves the body of the still living. Such as outer
body experiences, near death experiences and astral projections. There are some rare
cases of people seeing themselves as a ghost only at a different age. This can happen
if something traumatic took place and a piece of you was left behind or imprinted in
some way at a location. These rare types of ghosts can show intelligence and self
awareness. A doppelganger is different because its an exact copy of yourself.
Doppelgangers can be harmless or omens of death. The harmless doppelgangers are
often times an unconscious projection of a persons will. The entity is visible to others,
but the projector rarely sees it. This is a good thing, because it is believed that when a
person witnesses their own doppelganger it then becomes a omen of their impending
death.
Ghost Vessel, Ghost Ship, Phantom Vehicle or Ghostly Object
Phantom vehicle may refer to a ghostly or haunted vehicle, also, for insurance
purposes, a vehicle that causes death, injury, or damage without making physical
contact. These types of ghostly phenomena could be due to the enormous amounts of
human energy that has passed through these vehicles when they where in service and
can be very disturbing because they are usually connected to tragic events. For
example, a ship carrying thousands of passengers throughout its carrier could store
tones of energy and eventually take on a type of life of its own. There are many reports
of ghost ships seen by sailors. Many are apparitions of ships that have sunk, wrecked
aground, or disappeared years or centuries ago. Some sailors say siting a ghost ship
foretells of impending doom on the high seas.
Many apparitions of trains, cars and carriages have been seen as well. According to the
legend, every April 29th, Lincolns Ghost Train is seen. The funeral car carrying the body
of Abraham Lincoln rumbles through the town of Urbana, Ohio, following the route it
took back in 1865 when it carried the President's body back to Springfield, Illinois.
Spirits
A spirit is a generic term used to describe any entity that was never human like angels,
demons, elementals or other Gods. However a human spirit, is the soul of a person who
has crossed over and is not bound to this world like ghosts.
Angels
Angels are spirits aligned with God, they are positive energy beings that were never

human. Some believe there is a hierarchy of Angels, each with a specific purpose.
Different ways to evoke these spirits have been around for centuries and they will
protect you from dark entities as well as the living. It is said an Angels aura is so bright
that it gives the appearance of wings. Angels represent the good and positive forces of
the Universe, however they are very powerful beings that are not to be trifled with.
Guardian Angels
Guardian Angels are believed to be human spirits, usually an ancestor sent to guide and
protect you along life's journey. It is said that a person can have more than one
Guardian Angel depending on someones sensitivity to the spirit world as well.
Animal Spirit Guide
Native Americans believe that when you are born an animals spirit enters your body.
They could be a type of animal guardian of your soul and will protect you along life's
journey.
Demons
Demons are negative none human spirits, commonly used in Judeo - Christian terms as
fallen Angels. The term also applies to many different Gods & Spirits in other cultures
that predate Judeo - Christian ones. It is believed there is a hierarchy with demons as
well, ranging from the very powerful to lesser ones. Demons are very deceptive about
concealing their true identity, often disguising themselves as harmless spirits or ghosts.
A demon can appear as many entities to confuse its targets and to extract more fear
energy out of victims by making their numbers seem greater. However they usually
attack in waves starting with the lesser Demons leading the way. Once the victim has
been morally broken down over time the more powerful Demons step in for the
possession. It is important to obtain the Demons name, as this will help the Exorcist or
Shaman in the exorcism or cleansing. Foul smells like rotting garbage and sulfur are tell
tail signs of a demonic presence. The sounds of animal grunting are associated as well,
and their appearance can range from a dark shadow form, human- like form to, half
animal like creatures. Never taunt or challenge a demon unless properly trained, as this
usually increases the violence at a haunted location.
Demons are evil inhuman supernatural beings of intelligence, wit and power. They have
the ability to invade our homes, attach themselves to objects and humans and cause
both mental and emotional torture by attacking or possessing humans. They can morph
into any shape they wish, from humans to animals, before your eyes. They are neither
male nor female, but will change to whatever meets their need at the time. Demons are
most commonly seen as black masses standing in doorways or in corners of the room.
They have a hatred for mankind and think of us as lowly and stupid. Most demonic
entities like a challenge and are incredibly conniving; they may have you believing they
are good spirits or may appear to have gone away, only to confront you again at the

least expected and most vulnerable moment. Their main goal is to break down a
person's free will in order to make way for possession, beginning as oppression. This
can take days, months or years, but time is of no concern to them... they don't give up
easily.

Elementals
Elementals are non human spirits with a connection to the elements of earth, water, air
and fire. They are also referred to an older order Gods, Fairies and Elves in other
cultures.

Shadow Ghosts or Spirits

Shadow ghosts or spirits, this is a type of spirit or ghost. This phenomena could just be
a type of form either entity can take, but no one is certain. Their appearance can range
from dark grey to black and height varies from 1 foot to 6 ft or above. They can be seen
as dark smoke like figures or blobs.

Shadow People
Not much is known of shadow people, but as the technology improves, the paranormal
community is getting more and more evidence of their existence. Some call them
watchers or observers from another dimension. Shadow people may not be ghosts or
spirits. Some are described as tall, black humanoid like beings with red eyes and no
necks. Others are described as shadow like black masses.

Hauntings
A Haunting is when paranormal activity has been occurring for a lengthy period of time
in a certain location. An area can become haunted for many reasons, not just untimely
deaths or tragic accidents. Sometimes an area can become haunted because it was the
favorite place of a person who has passed. People do not have to die at a location for it
to become haunted and it can technically happen anywhere. The architecture of a
structure, the minerals in the land, underground springs and other water sources can
have a major factor as well. For example, you should never build structures on top of
limestone or water tables, because limestone retains energy and water is a conductor of
energy. This belief dates back over 5000 years in ancient China and other areas in the
region.

Haunted

Haunted can refer to a person, object, or place that has a ghost or spirit attached to it.
Haunted objects can be anything from jewelry to an old piano and often have an aura in
photos. Sometimes it can be a person that's haunted and not the area.

Residual Haunting
An imprint left at a location that repeats itself over and over again. Residual ghosts
usually live out their final hours at haunted locations. Residuals most often show no
intelligence or self awareness, they will go right past or through you without a flinch.
Many believe it was their emotional energy that left an imprint or recording on our
dimensional frequency, like a tape recorder.

Intelligent Haunting
An intelligent haunting is when paranormal activity interacts with the living and shows
some type of intelligence.

Demonic Haunting
A Demonic haunting, is when a negative, non human spirit or spirits haunt a location.
These types of hauntings usually start out playful but can quickly turn very dangerous
and even deadly. Demons destroy families and can haunt people their entire lives. Even
if they move, the demons will follow. An exorcism or cleansing must be conducted to rid
the victim, object or location of these negative entities, by a demonologist, priest or
shaman, but there's is no guarantee this will work.

Infestation
The term 'Infestation' is used when multiple ghosts, spirits or demons are involved in a
haunting. Infestation can also used to describe a very intense rise in paranormal activity
at a location.
