      Yea, I've had this happen to me too, but I think there's a scientific explanation for it.

      When I was younger, before I went to bed, I could hear my family talking as if the conversations of the day were being whispered into my ear. Not sure why that happens, but it was always interesting to me.

And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

        Oh man I had that happen to me ONCE in my whole life when I was much younger, and 'til this day I wondered whether or not it was real. Guess this means it probably wasn't.

          I could see that happening too. On more than one Occasion I will have that dream( very quickly after I have fallen asleep) and Something in it startles me awake and the last thing i heard was in my dream.

I heard a light tap downstairs and then on cue my dog starts barking wildly and she NEVER barks. Guess I'll be sleeping with a bat by my side tonight.

                I very much believe in ghosts based on my own personal experiences. I remember vividly because i wrote down details of what I saw but last November it was late at night maybe around 3am and I'm walking back to my room from the kitchen as i'm about to turn the corner to my room I was walking by the glass doors that lead to the pool i saw an oldish man sitting on the edge of the pool, he looked like something from an old Esquire drawing and looked very 1920's in regards to his style. It wasn't due to being tired or overtired as I was neither, nor was it an actual person, I truly believe there was something there that night that was supernatural.

                As a result of my own personal experiences I can't tell someone who seriously believes they saw something that they're wrong or it doesn't exist. Millions of people see and experience these things that are completely unexplainable and they can't all be lying or be wrong, there has to be something there, they have to be seeing something.

                  Did you go talk to him or touch him? Old people can wander and end up any where.

                    I've never had a paranormal experience myself but I do believe in ghosts just from what I've heard from others. Of course some people do make these things up (not saying the OP or any of you are) but with the huge amount of people who have witnessed paranormal activity and the documentation of it I believe they are here with us.

                    It is something I'm very interested in and something that freaks the hell out of me.

                    But why are most ghost sightings at night. Most of the stories you hear are almost always during the night. Do ghosts know that's when it's safe to come out or why can't we always see them? Can they make themselves appear and re-appear?

                    I have so many questions on the subject because it's so fascinating to me.

                        Sorry, I didn't watch Zombieland so I'm not aware of the proper techniques of fighting zombies, ghosts or home intruders. I honestly thought a bat would do the trick. Are there any other movies I should watch in order to become a professional zombie fighter like you guys?
