I'm glad you mentioned that ghosts are not evil, because that's something I need to stress, repeatedly. Scary ghosts may sell movie tickets and make great plot elements for paranormal television shows, but most ghosts are "just folks," without the convenience (or inconvenience? *grin*) of physical bodies.Many ghosts remain in a location for very sensible reasons, such as to watch over their descendants. Others remain for reasons that probably make sense to them, but seem a little nutty to us. For example, I once encountered a spirit who was still guarding a Bible that had been hidden in a wall... but the wall and the Bible had been removed, over a century earlier. Then again, that may have been a residual energy "haunting." Sometimes, it's difficult to tell. Most ghosts--if they are, in fact, spiritual beings and not just lingering energy--are well-meaning and even helpful. I've encountered frustrated, angry ghosts and territorial ghosts, but never a ghost that I'd describe as "evil," or even mildly malicious. In about 40 years of dealing with ghosts across the US and in five countries, that's probably a pretty good representation of what's out there. In other words, there aren't a whole lot of evil ghosts out there, if any. I'm glad you enjoyed my article, and I enjoyed your Christmas card as well. I'll be cruising through your articles too. Feel free to ask questions. That helps me understand what other information I should provide at this site. Thanks for visiting! Cheerfully, -- posted by eibhlin
