Aliens yes ghosts, mermaids, vampires no. I believe in aliens because in an observable universe that is 93 billion light years across there has to be some intelligent life besides us.

I believe people have had experiences and/or illnesses that have led them to be labeled as many things, or to believe certain entities are real. I leave room for strange, but not fanged. I'm in medicine. We see strange. Not vampiric, werewolfy, etc.

The strangest happening in my life was when my family went from Colorado to Hershey Park for a singing engagement for my daughter and decided to tour Old Philadelphia. At the Liberty Bell, I turned around and was face-to-face with my oldest brother from Massachusetts, who I had not seen or talked with for many years. Being in front of a National attraction accounts for the same location. Being there at precisely the same time due to independent decisions is quite the coincidence. I'd love to know if this type of coincidence has happened to others.

No. Supernatural means above nature, or not part of nature. Nature includes all of spacetime. Anything IN spacetime that can interact with nature is part of nature and uses the laws of physics. Therefore, anything that has an effect, is visible, etc., is part of nature and can be studied scientifically and shown to probably exist. Furthermore, you need replicability. It's no good saying you saw a ghost. I simply think you hallucinated. Unless you can take me to the same location and I see the same thing AND more importantly we can measure it, it does not exist except in your imagination. However if I can see it, photograph it, etc., then it has a natural scientific explanation because it is part of this world/universe. Aliens aren't supernatural, they are natural. They do not defy laws of physics. We understand the supernatural to be that which defies the laws of physics. Thus far, there is no documented replicable experimental proof of any such. The James Randi prize remains unclaimed.

Mermaids vampires werewolves not so much. Ghosts yes. Years ago when my son was a baby we moved into an apartment that the former tenant told us was haunted. Really thought they were a bit off. There were little things at first. Odd noises things that weren't quite where they were supposed to be. Sometimes I would hear my son babbling away and often he would look past me and laugh. Then it started in ernest with him. His blanket would be on the floor or his pacifier would be on the dresser etc. All somewhat explainable. One day I put him down for his nap with a bottle. A few minutes later I heard him screaming . When I went to check his bear was back in the toy box his bottle was across the room standing upright on the windowsill and there was a nasty red mark on his little hand. I stood in the middle of the room and screamed ' no more we are done". Started looking for a new place immediately and moved out within a month. There where no more incidents involving my son and only a few odd things after. So ghosts big yes

Without a doubt. I believe that there's more going on in the world (or outside of it) than meets the eye. And even though I respect people's opinions, there's part of me that dies a bit inside when someone isn't willing to except the possibilities. There's something so boring and flat about that, that I just can't shake.

I believe in spirits/ghosts. My brother passed at the age of 47 suddenly due to complications from surgery. Left behind was his wife of 20 years, his 13 year old nephew, 8 year old daughter, and 3 year old son who had been diagnosed as Autistic right before his passing. I spent a lot of time with my sister-in-law and my niece and nephews after his passing. My husband would join me when he could. One night shortly after his passing, my SIL asked if I could watch the kids for an hour or two and we went over. She had confided in me that they had argued horribly the day before and she threw her engagement/wedding bands at him in frustration (she wanted him to go to the hospital and he didn't want to go...he should have went). She was devistated not only because they argued, but she couldn't find her rings. She left and proceeded to begin getting all three ready for bed. My niece was in the shower and I stood by real close so she wasn't alone, but had her privacy. I started talking to my brother and was sitting on his side of the bed. I looked up towards heaven and asked him where he had put the rings. At that moment a feeling came over me (still am unable to explain) and I moved towards the end table on his side. I reached into the little remote holder and, yes, there were the rings. I called my husband upstairs and all I could do was hold my hand out with the rings. He started getting upset because he thought I was going through drawers looking for the ring (I would NEVER) and I stopped him and explained. When my SIL returned, I gently told her and she burst out crying. She asked me where I found them and I pointed to the remote caddy. She turned white and said that she had looked in there a couple of times. That same night, I was drying off the youngest getting his PJ's on him as he was laying on my SIL's bed and started giggling and reaching upwards all the while saying, "Hi Daddy!" So, yes, I do believe. I miss my brother...

Heck yeah! Aliens 100%. I mean, come on! There's so much space we haven't explored. Ghosts? Probably. Why not? Unicorns did exist at one point, but they didn't look how we imagine them. More like a fluffy rhino with a really long horn. Also, they're *probably* extinct now. Any aquatic cryptids, or even any that live on land, I think have a potential to exist. I mean, how much of the earth have we really explored? There's probably something out there.

Aliens are surely a thing somewhere, chances that we are alone in the universe are pretty slim.
The rest most likely not as they are usually based on natural occurrences like Hypertrichosis (abnormal amount of body hair growth) or Renfield's syndrome (pathological urge to drink blood) throughout history

There's a lot of supernatural in this world and some of it can be explained by science, but in my experience, odd things happen and there is seldom a logical explanation. The house I grew up in was haunted, so seeing things at an early age opened my mind to the fact that anything is possible.

I'm personally on the fence about the supernatural.

It's possible that supernatural things, or even life on other planets (not exactly supernatural, but something that also has its existence put into question) could exist, but without seeing it for myself, I'm not going to concern myself with it too much.

I'm open to the idea of supernatural elements really existing, but if they don't, no skin off my back.

"Do I believe in the Supernatural?" Well, that question covers a lot of territory. I believe there's a lot more going on in the Universe than we understand. I also believe that any living thing's ability to understand the universe is largely limited by the nature of its senses (natural senses, or augmented, as we do with technology). But even with tech, the pictures we build of how the universe works are conditioned by how our senses caused our minds and thoughts to develop. I don't know if there *can be* a 'Supernatural', since everything is part of the same universe, but there's a lot we have no clue about. And until we learn how Mind, Thought, and Memory couple into the material world, I don't think we *can* understand this. Do I believe in the Supernatural? Sure, I guess, but I think my definition of it is somewhat different. Is there life after death? I'll let you know...

People had to figure out a lot of things in the beginning. It was myths and magic until science found answers with proof.

#18

I believe humans in general have a limited understanding of the universe, and there are a lot of things that we simply do not understand or know. That's what scientific research is for. I don't have enough personal hubris to declare anything one way or the other; but, if "spirits", "gods", "angels", whatnot exist, they are a natural part of the world and therefore not supernatural. Their existence is just something we don't understand, and they appear supernatural to us because of that.

I would also argue concepts like "vampire", "mermaid" and so on are based on humanity too much to exist like we imagine them, if some form of the ideas do exist. ("Mermaid"? As in something sentient that lives underwater? Why not, on this planet or the other. But that it's literally half-human, half-fish? Sounds unrealistic. Evolution doesn't work that way.)

In short, am deeply agnostic.

Your point about evolution not working that way in regards to mermaids is spot-on! To take it one step further, think about centaurs. If the horse part of the young centaur can walk after a few hours, but the human part is at risk for severe injury or death from being jostled about, then the poor beings would never be able to reproduce. The image in my head of a young centaur running around with its human half flopping about in distress is simultaneously awful & just plain silly!

Not in the magic or paranormal, but I do strongly believe in the presence of extraterrestrials on this planet. Personally, I don't really care. I've always believed there had to be someone out there watching us. Frankly, I think all those assuming aliens would invade us are dumb. If aliens that are capable of traveling to this planet wanted to invade us, they would. I think we may need aliens. All these crises going on here on Earth, we may need help from above.

The electrics/electronics doing bizarre things, partly bugs/short circuits, but when they are unplugged for hours and days, and suddenly jump to life, that is another thing! Welcome to the club. I am massively sceptical for mystics, or whatever they call themselves, but know some have incredable talents, and since moved to France, despite my disbelief in "magnetieseurs" etc, I visited one, to get my youngest sis in law to give my head peace. Bizarrely I felt a heat, and body hairs stood up where his hands passed several inches above my body. Able to descend the stairs easily, and walk back to the sis in laws in laws hous without using my cane. Of course slowly weeks after the old probs returned.

We already know many animals & birds can see & hear more than we can (different wavelengths in sound and light). It's not much of a stretch to say there could be lifeforms all around us that we cannot detect with our senses. Sometimes there is an overlap or very sensitive people who can just perceive something out of the ordinary and put it down to the 'Supernatural'.

I wouldnt say exactly where in Norway but my previous office building have seen ww2 and loss of lot of souls in that area along with german occupation but It is very well maintained due to strict laws. Add to the fact that very few people live in that area.
When i started, i used to work late and sometimes alone, andi felt unease sometimes along with other noises but didnā€™t think much of it. one of my colleague always left when there were still few people working.
She told me about some SN experiences but i shrugged it off, until i talked to my boss and he confirmed of things moving and voices coming from other floor despite being alone.
I focused a bit more next time when It happened so to find who is joking around but i was alone due to the fact that lights turn on automatically when they sense someone. Me being a skeptic, wanted to find the source of the voices and starting of elevators along with nice from walking in the top floor. No luck other than a quick walk out of building to my car. Later i found of that people died and got buried in the building.

You have to be sensible and logical to sift out what is what. If you think that everything must be material or it doesn't exist then your thinking is stuck in the 19thC.

You lost me with the last sentence! However I agree there are many more dimensions, many being psychic, for want of a better word/term. I hesitate here to say I'm an empath, like my late mother, and for many years was in depression from emotional overload. Took on everybodies' probs, they walked away content, and I kept their pain. A bit clairaudient, and the solid/semi solid apparitions are rare. I had to learn to block. I'm reopening a bit again, and in my adoptive france, after my natal Northern Ireland a bit less opressive. I always question sceptically, before giving any credence to possible paranormal experiences, even though experienced myself (& still do), despite being a believer. identification of the "spirit" often a real problem. The "traditional" ghost is not always who they think it is.

Definitely do. Convinced I experienced one a few years ago.

My aunt lives near some fishing lakes and to get to said lakes you need to walk down a straight road that is straight for miles. This one day, we were visiting my aunt and my dad had decided to go fishing for the day. In the afternoon, my mom and I decided to go and check how my dad was doing. On the way down this straight road, I see this motorcycle right in front of us, coming our way. It's oddly silent but I put that down to how far away it was at the time, though it's still going at a sufficient speed to pass my mom and I in no time. I look away for a split second and turn back and there's no bike anywhere!

Remember this road has no side roads to turn off. I then ask my mom 'hey, where did that bike go?'

My mom's answer? 'What bike?'

All of these entities exists, but not just on the earth 3Dplane. Some of these entities exist on the 3D, but they are extremely well hidden, and have the ability to "shield" themselves. There are energetic levels above 3D, which are called the astral levels. A massive variety of entities live on the astral plane. Highly intuitive psychic people can see and/or sense these entities. ETs live in the 3D, and higher vibrational levels. There are also entities who are actually thought-form beings > meaning, so much of humanity believed these being exists, that "we" all created a thoughtform being, like vampires. Mermaids are a type of human that broke away from homosapiens eons ago, and live, very secluded in parts of the oceans. Ghosts are just dead people who got stuck/confused transitioning to the astral. Unicorns are astral beings (btw -they are just as intelligent as humans). Why do I "believe" in them? I'm a psychic, and I've had many experiences beyond the 3D.

Hmm sceptic of psycics, despit often describing myself as an empath, whith spans both the living and the passed. I do completely trust three people I know through FB who are psychics, or describe themselves as whith witches and who accurately predicted some odd turns in my life. My life has gone off at some odd tangents, and they predicted them pretty closely. Northern Irish, who fell for a femme fatale, introduced on FB by a mutual friend. 12 years in France, zapping around in different circles. 8 years in my now wife's natal Nord-pas-de-Calais, where I relearned my out of date French, and northern Ch'ti dialect, before a brainstorm for both of us brought us to vannes in bretagne 4 years ago. The wife a very sceptical and frightened part believer, but coming more and more into my weird otherworld, sans coercion. Hope you are one of the true folks. You can be immesurabley reassurant to many in pain or confusion.

Tomorrow going to probably be bombarded with comments on all the previous comments I've made. I've seen and experienced too much weird and wunnerful stuff, that nobody has yet completely explained b science (which i love by the way). I have debunked some of my own experiences after researching history, science medecine (take meds and now have vision problems - corner of eye sightings often because of different vision with the rods in the eyes). Ghosts/phantoms/spirits, whatever you want to call em, including peridolia, or misidentification, etc; exist. What they really are are the big question. Why do so many people see & experience the same things, in the same places, and I don't believe it is all because of myths and legends or urban legends? Very possible a psychological thing, yet still no overall explaination. I've seen sensed and experienced too many things with witnesses to believe the supernational is all in the mind. 12 years after moving to France language no barrier. Experience less, but thats cos they're racist! Pmsl. ETs exist but are natural. Gawd elp them, why would they want to stay here after a visit?! Different sorts of paranormal events. Some repetitive, some on anniversaires, others regular, many only with certain people. Its complicated. Will we ever have a definitave answer? I doubt it? We will continue to bicker, and be insulted by those who haven't had experiences, or passed them off as nothing. Good luck for the experiencers, and yes continue the scientific debunking for the rest. Each has their place.

I think there is definitely more than just us. Either in outer space, or here with us on earth.
There are many life forms in the deep sea we haven't seen yet. So why would it be impossible to have more than one life forms on this very planet?

Ghosts yes. I've had a few strange experiences to lead me to believe ghosts are real. But I don't necessarily think ghosts are dead people

So many classifying aliens as supernatural - they're not, they're extra-terrestrial.
Supernatural stuff - nope, just imagination, hallucination, wishful thinking and the misinterpretation of physical phenomena, sorry.

No!
Supernaturals can't exists. If they are exists, they will not be supernatural.
Many of them are just attempts to explains natural things with non scientific methods.
I always say: If science can't explain something it means only that science cannot explain it. Not less, not more.

No. Why would I or anyone else? There is absolutely no empirical evidence or peer reviewed results that prove the existence of anything supernatural.
It's a fun pretend thing and it makes great stories but ghosts, psychics and all that malarkey are not and never were real.

Obviously not. The moment we went from weird shadows in candlelight to fully illuminated electric lighting and quality cameras, all sightings stopped. Those two things are not unrelated.

Thats when evidence for like ghosts stopped but like every other supernatural thing has more sightings. Obviously some used the higher tech to get a higher quality hoax but also the number of unexplained and proven non-tampered with film shot up for other things. Even a non believer has to admit thatā€™s is unusual if nothing else
