Posted by Coleman Demiurge on 02/09/08 at 04:46 AM I'm about as skeptical as skeptical can possibly get, yet I do still watch these "ghost hunting" things now and again. Most Haunting mostly because I find it amusing when they run screaming out of a room whenever they hear "footsteps" (fine ghost hunting right there). Anyway, excellent piece; not only in its conjunction to reality ghost hunting television, but to pretty much to all aspects of 'entertainment' nowadays... Very well done indeed; stanza two was my favorite part. |
Posted by Gregory O'Neill on 02/09/08 at 05:11 AM Excellent observations, Chris. Still, great thinkers since antiquity have given paranormal events and mystical truth claims a central place in their philosophies. One wonders. Thanks.

Posted by Adrian Calhoun on 02/11/08 at 07:34 AM In the back of everyones mind I think these questions "haunt" the shadows. Some of us i'm sure have seen things that are hard to explain if they can be at all. All the stories. I believe there are spirits walking the earth among us myself. Good piece Chris, anything that makes people think or question things is a good thing. |
