Great Caesar's Ghost!
Great Caesar's Ghost! Gallup finds 1 in 3 Americans Believe Houses Can Be Haunted
By E&P Staff Published: July 12, 2005 1:15 PM ET NEW YORK Gallup reports today that its latest poll found that one in three Americans “believe in ghosts.” The numbers: 32% of all adults say they believe that “ghosts/spirits of dead people can come back,” while 48% do not, and 19% are unsure. An even larger number of Americans believe that houses can be haunted, with 37% holding that position, 46% saying no, and 16% not sure. There's an ideological twist, with 42% of liberals saying they believe in ghosts--but only 25% of conservatives and 35% of moderates saying this. Belief in ghosts declines with age, with 45 of those 18 to 29 sticking to that, while only 22% of those 65 and over holding that view. The poll was based on interviews with 1,002 adults, with a plus or minus 3% sampling error.

I think you would find that a similar survey here in the U.K. would bring the same results Troj. One of the most popular television shows here is called Most Haunted and there are more than 7 million regular viewers.
Of course with over a 1000 years of history in these islands we have more than a few castles and manor houses that date back hundreds of years and are said to be haunted. Wher I live we have Dudley castle which it is said to have quite a few ghosts and many a local person claims to have had a ghostly encounter there!!!! Warm Regards |

Ghosts .... pfft...
I don't think any real ghosts of dead people. If I was dead I wouldn't want to come and haunt my house.

I don't deny that there are "spirits" but I don't think they haunt houses like in scary movies.
Then again I have not seen/heard any of that stuff first hand.
