Everyone's heard of ghosts but no one knows for certain what a ghost is. People have been experiencing things they can't explain for thousands of years. Although there have been centuries of encounters with ghosts, what actually happens remains unexplained. There are many theories to explain the experiences that people have had and as there seem to be more than one type of haunting, different theories are used to explain different types.
A spirit that's seen is called an apparition. It�s usually a three-dimensional form that may look structured or more abstract, like a mist or globe of light. Spirits sometimes appear translucent but are often reported as being opaque. The spirit's appearance depends entirely how that particular spirit determines to project itself, or how it sees itself in its own mind. Tragedy comes in many forms, often accompanied by violence, and an individual's last thoughts tend to dominate the mind of his spirit after physical death. Therefore, the ghost will often manifest as a grotesque spectacle, representative of the nature in which it died.
No-one knows for certain what a ghost or apparition actually is, although there are many theories. One popular theory is that a spirit is a type of energy unique to all life. When life ends, this energy leaves the body and enters another dimension. As energy can't be destroyed, only changed, it may manifest as a ghost.
A ghost is usually defined as a disembodied human spirit. It's normally a passive entity with limited powers and abilities. Often, it manifests at random, tries to communicate, and then disappears. Apart from making itself known, a ghost rarely does anything else.
