Let me ask you a question, do you believe in ghosts? Not the sheet wearing chain dragging wailing type, but the ones that just appear as they were in life. Silently slipping through your timeline.
I'll tell you what I believe for what its worth. I believe in the stone tape theory. That is where buildings, walls etc absorb strong emotions, traumatic events and rather than there being trapped souls, a recording if you will of events in the past that somehow appear in the right conditions. So what you are seeing is the echo of what once was. It's a fascinating theory, and one I think is more likely that a tortured entity that cannot find the light.
What convinced me was when we were at the pub, long regarded as being haunted. Kev ( a complete sceptic) saw a girl standing at the bottom of the bed. She was staring at my dolls. I didn't see her, but Kev said she dissipated through the floor boards.
Later on we learned through a bit of research that in the 1800's when it was a coaching inn, a young girl was accidentally drown in the Trent close by. Her body was bought to inn and a doctor was called. He arrived to late and she died. Her name was Emily. That is what I believe Kev saw in our room that night an echo of that traumatic event. A "recording" of the anguish at her passing.
