You look like you’ve seen a ghost…

If you’ve ever felt a spirit living in your home, you’re not alone. A US study has found that nearly half of the 1,000 people surveyed believe their house is haunted by ghosts. That’s similar to another survey from an American real estate education site – fittingly called Real Estate Witch – that found 44% of 1,000 respondents claimed to have lived in a home with an invisible housemate. Photographer Shane Booth is a believer – he told The New York Times he’s noticed several unexplained “little things” happen, including finding piles of folded laundry scattered, photos removed from the wall and placed on the floor, and loud laughter when nobody else was in the house… Spooky. Researchers say these beliefs in the supernatural could be due to an increase in paranormal-themed media and a drop in religious affiliation. Who ya gonna call?
