If you could haunt peope after you die would you do it or

would you walk quietly into the night?

What would be involved in walking away quietly into the night? Would I still get to be around people?

I would think that if I were a ghost on Earth I would still want to be around people, at least some of the time. That's assuming that I have anything like a human psychology.

I don't think that I would haunt people if that meant terrifying them.


eudaimonia,

Chalk it up to having a mean streak, but I would haunt--there would be some people I would love to scare the dickens out of...

 

[SithDoughnut]

Depends on what I can do. Am I capable of just holding conversations and just being with people? Can I opt out at any time? Am I stuck with just one person? Do I have to be good or evil? Can I go wherever I want?

I would definitely haunt some place, but i think I would use it for good. I was mugged really badly about 9 years ago, and had my head split open. It's kind of blurry, but I remember being asked if I wanted to quit or continue, meaning basically, here is a choice where you can live or die. I said that I didn't know, and passed out. I only had a split second to think about it. Well, turns out that I didn't die, and quite probably should have. I was bleeding internally in my brain, but for some reason it stopped. I came to long enough to make it to a friend's house and go to the hospital. My skull could have shattered but didn't. I could have had permanent brain damage, but lucked out.

Had I died, I would have returned to the guy's place that did this. I assume that he mugged me for some quick money for drugs. After years of anger, I have actually prayed for him. He is in far worse place than i ever was. And I would continue to haunt him until he saw the extreme damage to people's lives he was causing. I would haunt him until he wanted to quit the drugs and turn for help, and figure out why he needed drugs in the first place. But I think after I was done, I would also be sure that I saw him one last time, told him that I had already forgiven him long ago, and that he is loved by God very much, right now. I would leave him when he really understood that he was lovable, that he was a worthy life. I suspect that many people with addiction are actually full of self-loathing.

I would also go and visit friends and family from time to time.

My father passed about 2 years ago, and shortly after his death, I would be at home, and suddenly sense someone there, sense his spirit, and even smell is cologne. This happened very strongly 3 different times. Recently, i was dreaming that I was lying in bed, and i looked over and saw my dad. He said, "Hi. I just thought I would stop by and say hi." I said, "It's so good to see you!" Then, I woke up, and was like, "whoa. I think my dad just visited me in my dreams."

I would probably also want to haunt some hotel, and say something like, "Who stole my uuuuuuuvula?"

Haunting sounds like more fun than the great praise and worship service in the sky & I am not jazzed at all about the other place. . . . given the option for ghosting, sign me up.

 

[Zebra1552]

Hm. Can I haunt certain people and then go to heaven? That'd be fun.

Only if some sort of ghostwhisperer comes along and helps you accomplish what made you stay behind before you can pass on.
