Humans Can See Ghosts
Updated 2/11/2020 – While only about 18% of Americans have seen ghosts, there is evidence that humans have a natural ability to see them.
Psychologists call the ability to see ghosts or other images, “sensed presence.”
There are several explanations for sensed presences, but most experts believe it may have to do with a person’s physical state.
An altered state of consciousness may be brought on by high levels of stress, lack of oxygen, an influx of hormones, or monotonous stimulation, which can alter brain chemistry.
A group of researchers has found that stimulating certain areas within the brain could cause people to see ghosts or apparitions.
A study conducted in 2013 between people who had experience seeing ghosts and those who hadn’t shown that experiences seeing supernatural phenomena most often occurred during times of threatening or ambiguous situations.
Supernatural phenomena is very real.
Steps to Seeing Ghosts
While there may be psychological and physical reasons behind seeing ghosts, many people want to have the experience and may try going ghost hunting.
