Ghosts...Why
Are They Here?
What exactly is a ghost?
Before you can understand what an entity consists of you need
to understand a
bit about the human body of the living person. Everything you
do, see, hear, taste, feel, etc. Is controlled by electrical
impulses sent to your brain
from your body's different parts or from your brain to your
different body parts.
For example... right now you are reading this webpage, an electrical
impulse is
going from your eyes to your brain carrying the information
your eyes are seeing. As you scroll down this page your brain
is sending electrical impulses to your hand to move your mouse,
etc...
When a person dies their individual systems shut down independently,
your kidneys fail, then your respitory system shuts down, then
your heart stops beating and finally your brain stops functioning.
Since all these systems are controlled by electrical impulses
the electricity has to go somewhere. It is a general law of
physics that
energy can not be destroyed, so where does the energy go when
your body shuts down? It is released into the atmosphere!
When a person dies a slow or natural death the energy is released
more slowly and in a less concentrated state than if a person
were to die a sudden or violent death. This is why I believe
hospitals are not the most haunted places even though more deaths
occur in them then anywhere else.
Another theory I have been tossing around for some time now
is what makes certain locations more likely to have a ghost
than others. I believe it all boils down to
electromagnetic fields trapping the energy that is released
at time of death.
For example...Everyone has heard of at least one haunted theatre
in the area they live. Theatres are huge electromagnetic fields,
they have high voltage electrical systems in them to support
the sound and lighting equipment that is used for their shows.
Theatres used to be very dangerous places to work at one time,
it was very easy to have a lighting rig fall down on someone
and kill them, it was also easy for someone to fall from a catwalk
that is high above the stage. The ingredients were all
there for a sudden and violent death. When that occurred from
time to time the energy that was released from the victim's
body was trapped by the much stronger electromagnetic field
and you now have a ghost.
One of the tools we use for paranormal research is an EMF meter.
These meters are designed to measure changes in electromagnetic
energy. Many times while investigating a haunting we have discovered
very high levels of electromagnetic energy present. Alot of
times this is caused by high voltage electrical systems or by
old wiring. Both will create an electromagnetic field.
There is a strong possibility that despite the theories of some
other researchers it is not the ghost that causes the electromagnetic
energy, it is the electromagnetic
energy that causes the ghost.
