Non-Clicky Poll: If you believe in ghosts...

sweetpea7628

do you believe that "orbs" are ghosts/spirits?  I watch Ghost Hunters a lot and they always talk about "orbs" showing up in pictures and what not.  Now I know a lot of times it can be dust, but what if sometimes they are not. 

Call me crazy but in about 10% of the pictures I take of Em, there are "orbs" or dust...whatever...but it's kinda creepy/cool.  Depending on how you look at it.  I just started to really notice them recently and there is actually one in the picture that I just posted on my blog.  Either I need to dust more or my baby has spirits following her!  lol

I definitely think they can be!

Dude!  My baby is totally haunted then!  lol

I looked at the one on your blog. That one looks like dust, however. But I don't doubt that there is an orb around Em here and there

Part of me believes, part of me doesn't. It depends on the picture and what not.

I don't. But then I've never had anything supernatural happen to me either.

There's a big difference between dust and orbs. But lots of astral bits are benign or friendly, very few are malicious.

 

I like to go ghost hunting.

This and, one thing I like about TAPS is that, most of the time, they speculate that the spec on the picture is dust or random light.  They usually have other evidence for them to jump to an orb.

Are you criticizing my cleaning skillz?  lol

I think too many people that see "orbs" are actually seeing dust/insects/light reflections. 

However, that being said, I think there are genuine oddities captured on film.

Actually---if you want to get specific, I see an "orb" in 3 out of the 4 pictures.  None of which look anything more than dust/reflection, but it proves the point that people can easily go orb-crazy

I would call the Ghost Hunters if I were you.  Me thinks you need help.   lol

I agree - I really like the way they approach it.  And I'm jealous - I would love to go ghost hunting.

I didn't believe in them until I had some orbs show up in pictures.  Long story, but I went to school in a very haunted town, and I took a class about paranormal and supernatural stuff.   We learned in class about weird things that happen in pictures (including cameras not working) in this one spot in the town, so we immediately went there after class to take pictures.

I had a disposable camera, and mine was the only one that worked (my friends had regular cameras).  Orbs showed up in a few pictures, and in one, there was a fog around my feet.  This was on a bright, sunny, spring day.  I still get the shivers when I think about it.  I wish I knew where these pictures were so I could scan them.
