    Well, if you had to experience even one of the things that we discuss in this book, perhaps, you will change your mind on actually seeing ghosts. It may be hard to accept that the place we are living in is occupied by entities we cannot see. Many claim that if a place becomes abandoned for a long time, then ghosts may see it as a sign of welcome, and hence, they would reside in that area. However, there are various reasons as to why a place (or a person) is haunted - it could be memories, a refusal to cross over, deliberately communicating with the dead or perhaps, one is just gifted.
