OPINION: Do Ghosts Exists? by GuestLog(op): 10:15pm On Nov 07, 2019
Do ghosts exist?

My mom once told me a story of when she was young, a certain young mechanic died in Kano after a brief illness. She later saw him as a bus conductor in Lagos State and when he saw her, he was startled and couldn't look her in the eye. She said, fear gripped her and couldn't utter a word while she sweat uncontrollably. When he got the next bus stop, he got down and didn't return to the bus.

As much as I want to doubt her story, there have been similar stories of the dead found in other localities.

Are ghosts real or is it just a doppelganger or hallucinations sort of.

What do you think of ghosts?

But the mechanic’s has been eaten by worms in the grave - whose body is he using to do conductor?

It doesn’t. A ghost, assuming such exists, cannot be physical

Exactly. That's why I dont believe Hollywood's idea of ghosts wearing white & there are doors open/close, lights flicker, white face etc

To verify existence of ghosts, Houdini (a skeptic and one of the greatest if not the greatest magician) and his wife, Bess, promised each other that whoever died first would try to contact the other "from the other side". He and Bess devised a secret message, a code phrase that would be used.
After Houdini died in 1926, Bess began the tradition of holding a séance on the death annivarsary to see whether Houdini, the Man No Jail Could Hold, could indeed escape from death.
In 1936, the "Final Séance" was held on the roof of the Knickerbocker Hotel in Los Angeles. Ten years was enough, and Bess admitted that she had never received any message from Houdini.

Could religion be part of the reason Africans have much believe in the supernatural?

Whatever doesn't exist won't exist in word.
The name 'Ghost' won't surface if there are no occurrences.

So many attestations about it in the early times but modernization/civility is fast taking off our eyes and consciousness off it.
