Inviting ghosts IRL
Anyone else feel like if you play this game and say enough things in-game, a ghost in real life might actually haunt you?

I see no evidence of ghosts actually being real.

It's just your imagination and you spooking yourself out.

Ghosts only exist in real life because of superstitious people and locations wanting to make a name for themselves by being haunted (or just mundane but otherwise unexplained happenings).

The only paranormal activity caused by this game is virgins finally talking to girls without breaking into awkward harassment.

Also, need to have a way to block users.

I"ve genuinely saw one and it scared the living ♥♥♥♥ out of me. I'm not joking. Many years ago in a hallway being a dark shadow........... F@#$@#$@#$

I do have my paranoia after that experience so I try to word things in specific ways so I do not do that. I try to call my friends name, or whatever. I try to do "work arounds" or let my friends do the vocal stuff......

I'm not joking..... I legit saw a shadow in a hallway before in a house I used to live in....... The irony in me playing this game......

On one hand...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_prizes_for_evidence_of_the_paranormal#List_of_standing_prizes

Is a lot of money for anyone who can prove a paranormal ability or event.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Committee_for_Skeptical_Inquiry

Good number of very competent people who are looking at evidence of the paranormal and coming up empty.


And although there is
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_person

The page is simply a mess and most anything outside of paranormal blogs and cringeworthy videos tends to be extremely lacking in factual content.

There is no other hand.

I mean, I could go back there but I'd rather not. I'm a scardy cat, even in this game (more so thanks to item loss). I know where I saw it and at night. It was a big solid shadow person standing in the hallway when I wanted to go from my room to the living room when I was a kid..... I swear it wasn't a dream because I wanted to say good night to my mother.. Scared the living ♥♥♥♥ out of me causing me to run back to my room in fear and hide under my bed sheet.

And I'll nod at the links you shared. Things are indeed a mess to where information can be wacky.

I'll re-note that when playing this game I fear I may actually summon something in the current temp house I am right now....... The irony and my paranoia in playing this game, even though this game is indeed fun to play.

Ghosts aren't real, or at least they can't interact with the living in any way and we can't see/interact with them if they do exist, otherwise we would have some sort of proof by now. There is no ACTUAL proof of the paranormal, only a bunch of superstitious people, fake videos/pictures, etc. etc.

No because the intention isn't there. Also you are not recording and playing back audio with intent to hear something which can be as dangerous as any other spiritual tools like ouja board

The Spirit World is real and there are Orbs and Demonic Forces present. I was raised Christian and know that sometimes people when they die they don't move on whether it being having things that they were trying to complete before they passed or had something tragic happen to them. That is why they have Mediums present who can communicate with the dead. After watching seasons with Zak Bagans he does come back with scratches on his legs and back so that indicates a hostile demonic presence. Not trying to get into a religious debate on these forums but I believe that there are things in the afterlife. Apparitions and such. Some peoples minds are more attune and open to seeing these kinds of things. They have a "gift". I wouldn't want that gift. I will probably never to try to take any kind of EMF or Spirit Box in real life. I don't want something following me home.

Well....you wouldn't play with a Ouija board in your own home.
But you would walk around with a VR headset, calling out spirits.
Something to think about...

People only believe in what they see - until they can't believe what they are seeing.

The way I see it :
Your attraction to the unknown is reciprocated.
Your attention and actions are mirrored.
Death by ignorance and stupidity - who knew?
