Short story

I was in my kitchen cooking (I have a three story house, and everyone was upstairs except for me, the kitchen is on the second floor). There seemed to be an unnecessary amount of lights on in the house, so I thought out loud to myself "can someone turn off the lights?" Right after I said that, the lights in my living room went off! I heard the actual flick of the light switch, and when I went to see if anyone was in the living room hiding, trying to prank me, all I saw was a shadowy figure float across the room in a reflection off a china glass pantry thing (I don't know whats its called). After being freaked out and running upstairs like a kid, I came back down in the living room and the light switch was down, so the bulbs didnt die out, they turned back on when I flicked the light switch back up.

What could this mean, prove, etc.? If ghost exists, maybe it could be evidence of another realm or dimension of some sort, Some people I've told said it could be indirect evidence of God's existence. Lastly, I know I sound crazy, but trust me, I clearly wasn't dreaming, and no, I am not making this up. What are your thoughts on this? In the past, I thought I had maybe experienced a ghost when wierd things happened, but could all be explained. This time, thats not the case.

Could be that really. Maybe a spirit dwelling, tying loose ends maybe. You never know. I don't believe in ghosts, but I think you're saying the truth, be careful.

Well finding out the history of the house, former occupants, any deaths in the house and the nature of the deaths would answer some questions. The first step towards knowing is to ask questions and get the answers after all. Seen ghosts as well, always fascinates me.

Why are there no dinosaur ghosts or cavemen ghosts?

Also why do ghosts spend their whole time annoying people by doing childish things?

When I first moved in, the former owners said the house had once "burned down", though not sure to what degree. I sometimes speculate someone died in the fire, but I try to not think about it too much.

You asked someone to turn off the lights. Someone turned off the lights. You saw the reflection of the person leaving. Why the hell are you so spooked?

Yes, the lights went off. That doesn't prove anything. There is no evidence to support that it was a ghost, let alone proof that it was.

Of all the more plausible answer to the question "why did the light turn off?", i love how people jump straight to ghost as the answer. :lol:

No one was in the living room, everyone was upstairs relaxing for the night. The lights went off and I saw a shadowy figure move across the room. I'm pretty sure many people would be spooked by that. What is there to explain that?

No one was on the second floor except for me. My parents were for sure upstairs, when I ran up there, they were in their room. My brother was also in his room. My sisters weren't home.

Well, if you breathed hard it could have created a windpool of air that pushed everything like the buterfly effect and then pushed down on the light switch and turned off light. Then you turned around and saw the dust in the wind in a reflection.

I don't know what it was therefore the most 'logical' explanation is that it must have been a spirit/ghost/whatever

That my friend, is an argument from ignorance.

Well they can have rape you. What do you think a wet dream is? It has to be a ghost right? They find you asleep and then they float on top of you and since they don't have weight you just... you know, get raped by a ghost.

It's not an ignorant argument, there's no argument at all. I am ignorant to the explanation behind what happened because I don't know what can exactly explain it. I'm labeling it a "ghost" in accordance to what the general perception of what ghost are in comparison to what I experienced. It can certainly be something other than a ghost.

The way my house is, I would've seen them, heard them, etc. My living room and kitchen are almost connected and people can clearly see into it from the kitchen.

Then your answer should simply be "I don't know" instead of tagging something along the lines of ghosts, another realm/dimension or god to it.
Although I do agree that ghosts make a cooler story! :)
