Proudly serving monsters since 1998.
Although studies have been carried out on apparitions since early 19th century and many theories have been put forth and explained, scientists, priests, psychologists and parapsychologists offer all explanation of their own but still know very little about apparitions.
Parapsychologists study ghosts as part of their living. A parapsychologist seeks to understand paranormal phenomena. Paranormal phenomena is described as any phenomenon or occurrence that exceeds the bounds of what is possible, according to the established principles and laws of science.
Skeptics on the other side charge the controversy with several rational explanations for suspected ghost sightings that involve some type of naturally-occurring electrical, magnetic, or electromagnetic condition.
For instance, Scientists Richard Lord and Richard Wiseman explain that sound waves having frequencies less than 20 hertz are normally inaudible, nonetheless, they may cause someone to feel a presence or shift their mood to anxiety or dread. Carbon monoxide poisoning was cited as a cause for haunted houses as early as 1921 because it can cause hallucinations, ill feelings, and a sensation of dread as well.
Medical studies have proven that when certain parts of the brain are stimulated, various perceptions are disturbed, such as visual, auditory, and tactile functions. Various external stimuli such as very low frequency sound waves, high fields of electricity, chemicals or drugs can cause hallucinatory experiences that for the subject are indistinguishable from reality. Indeed, schizophrenics … Read more
According to this theory, ghosts are recordings of past events in certain surroundings, energy that is trapped somewhere in the time continum and allow to play again events that were emotionally "charged", to living people sensitive enough to discern them. Although most agree that these types of apparitions do appear to be "recorded" somehow in … Read more
According to this theory, ghosts are actual beings living in one or more parallel dimensions. The concept of a parallel universe is a fairly complex one. To put it simply, this theory suggests that there are one or more (perhaps an infinite number) of complete universes co-existing with us on a plane we are generally … Read more
Magnetic waves consistently flow through our atmosphere and come from both natural and man-made sources. The fields then fluctuate due to a variety of factors such as heating by the sun, tidal forces from the sun and moon, the impact of photons from outer space and localized weather conditions, for example, lightning. Stevens says, "There … Read more
Infrasound is sound that is lower in frequency than 20 Hz (Hertz) or cycles per second, the normal limit of human hearing. Hearing becomes gradually less sensitive as frequency decreases, so for humans to perceive infrasound, the sound pressure must be sufficiently high. The ear is the primary organ for sensing infrasound, but at higher … Read more
Freud thought that ghosts are actually the visions of people who are afraid of death. In this sense, ghosts would not be real at all but rather a projection of our subconcious mind. Jung looked for answers in his theory of the collective unconscious, the contents of which can in his view take on almost … Read more
