Takeaways
These are just some of the examples of Ghost sightings that are hard to believe. The White House Ghost, for example, there are numerous ghost appearances but how come we can say that one of them is Abraham Lincoln? Another example is the Amityville story which gives us a chilling story of what we assume the ghost of the murdered family.
The last example is the appearance of a brown lady of Raynham hall which is said to be the sister of the prime minister. These examples tell us that they do exist. Their existence as what they appear as a ghost gives us the reason to respect them even if they have already died and somehow continue to give them prayers for them to rest peacefully.
Not all people are gifted to have seen them, and not all people who are gifted are grateful to have seen them. However, one thing we all have in common is that we know there are things that we cannot explain or hard to explain simply because we are living in a world full of mysteries that requires more understanding and evidence to give us answers.
