I am not going to tell you something that might give you the creeps, so be relaxed.

If you ask people whether they have seen ghosts, there will be different opinions. Some will say that they don’t believe in ghosts, others would say that they’ve seen ghosts that are very frightening, many people will say that they believe ghosts are invisible, there are also many who say that there are many homes and buildings that have been haunted by ghosts. Some would say that they believe in spirits and that there are two kinds of spirits, the first one is the evil and the other is good.

There are many places that have been declared haunted by the people and those who try to see these haunted places are warned that if they dare enter such a place, they are surely doomed. It is really unfortunate indeed how young children are warned “Don’t go over there because bhudda baba or jinn booth will take you away. Our elders usually think that to scare children is the only way to make them comply to their wishes.

Experts’ opinion

In many cases, experts were called in to investigate these so-called ghosts and spirits. Usually the experts walked away baffled and they too have different views on this subject as did many other people. All of them knew for sure that there were many places where something weird had happened that could not be fully explained. However, some felt that such things are a figment of our minds and that there are no such creatures on earth.

Books on ghosts

Many books have been written on ghosts and haunted places that are worth reading. Novels like Centerville Ghost, The Ghost, Mysteries on ghosts, Dracula and many other books have been written on these mysterious creatures. These books are no doubt frightening, scary and thrilling. Not everyone can read them, specially those who are a little cowardly.

Dramas and movies

Amazing, yet horrifying dramas and movies have been made both in Urdu and English. Plays like Nandana, Aahat, Qissa of seven nights and many spooky movies like Scooby Doo, Dracula, Bhoot, etc. have been made that are, of course, very frightening indeed.

Several books, dramas and movies have been written and made on these so-called haunted creatures but we have a very vague idea of what these creatures actually are.

There is no doubt that there are different views available on this issue. To believe in them or not is totally up to you. Just don’t be scared as nothing is more powerful than God.
