 Anjana writes: We sit at the edge of our seats when watching a movie like ‘The Exorcism of Emily Rose’. Such violent and obvious ghost manifestations are very visible and show a ghost fully manifested. But is there such a thing as ‘a ghost in hiding’ (unmanifest)? This article discusses the two forms of ghost possession, the manifest and unmanifest possession.
Ghosts (demons, devils, negative energies, etc.) though neither visible to the gross eye, nor perceived by the other sense organs, mind and intellect affect all of mankind. The manifestations of distress due to ghosts or negative energies are varied, and can be from a person displaying uncharacteristic behaviour to erratic violent behaviour. Ailments and disorders such as addictions, various physical and psychological illnesses, family problems, business problems etc. can be caused due to possession or manifestation of ghosts.

Introduction
In August-September of 2005 I did a very interesting trek alone on foot across central Israel. I walked altogether about 200 miles with my backpack, from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, then around the Jerusalem mountains and off south-west from there towards the old Philistine city of Gath, today the modern town of Kiryat Gat.
I was mostly following an officially marked nature trail known as "the Israel Path", which crisscrosses this country from its northernmost outpost on Mount Hermon and eventually gets to the southern port of Eilat. I started by walking several miles from my house in Jaffa along the shoreline to the north of Tel Aviv, to join the trail where it starts east towards Jerusalem following the Yarkon river. All my friends knew that I was walking the trail, and some would drive up occasionally for a few hours at night, to sit with me by the fire. But I was essentially alone almost the entire time.

There is a place in San Antonio, Texas known by everyone as a symbol of man’s desire for freedom. One of the world’s most recognized buildings. The Alamo. But there is another side of the Alamo not so well known. The Alamo is possessed by ghosts.
To understand why the Alamo is haunted one needs to know a little of Texas history. Texas, in 1836, was in a struggle for independence from the dictatorial iron hand of Santa Anna, the president of Mexico.
Santa Anna was determined to squelch the struggle by a policy of death, with no quarter, to the rebels whom he referred to as pirates. Santa Anna had already stopped all immigrants from the United States from entering Texas.

One of my most memorable experiences with ghosts occurred in Madrid back in 1999/2000 or thereabouts.
It happened in the cellar of a what today is a popular “irish pub”, one of the many that now abound in the spanish capital. This particular place I remember well as an old wine tavern which stood opposite the bullfight ticket office.
It did a good trade serving wine and aperatifs or “tapas” to the crowds of people who flocked to buy their entry ticket for the “Corrida de Toros”. , the ticket office is long gone and what was once a typical, spanish wine bar with its huge, earthenware wine vats or “tinajas” and its marble-topped tables tables and bead-curtained doorways, has now become an irish style “pub”.

Ghost show Most Haunted has been cleared of fraud by TV watchdog Ofcom, following complaints of deception.
Viewers complained that the Living TV show, featuring "psychic" Derek Acorah, deceived the public by claiming to find evidence of paranormal activity.
But Ofcom ruled that Most Haunted was an entertainment show, not a legitimate investigation into the paranormal, and should not be taken seriously.

On the 29th of January, 1719, a Scottish gentleman, named Alexander Jaffray, Laird of Kingswells, was riding across a piece of wide and waste moorland to the westward of Aberdeen,
when, about eight o’clock in the morning, he beheld--to his great alaom and bewilderment, as he states in a letter to his friend, Sir Archibald Grant, of Monymusk (printed by the Spaulding Club)--a body of about seven thousand soldiers drawn up in front of him, all under arms, with colors uncased and waving and, the drums slung on the drummers backs.

In late August of 1977, Mrs Peggy Harper, a divorcee in her mid forties, had put two of her four children to bed. They were living in a semi detached council house in Enfield, North London that had three bedrooms.
Late at night, Janet, aged eleven and her brother Pete, aged ten, complained that their beds were "jolting up and down and going all funny". As soon as Mrs Harper got to the room the movements had stopped - as far as she was concerned her kids were making it all up.
The following night at 9.30 pm, Peggy was called to Janet and Pete’s room when they complained something was making a shuffling noise. Janet said it sounded like one of the chairs moving, so Peggy took the chair out of the bedroom to put their minds at ease. Saying goodnight to the children once more and turning off the light, she too heard the shuffling noise. As though somebody was "shuffling across the floor in their slippers".

A true account of an experience I had while in the Royal Air Force at R.A.F Yatesbury.
By Terry D Burgoyne. LoneCat
My parents were still living in Linden Close and I was still stationed at R.A.F. Yatesbury, not far from Calne, the home of Harris’s bacon factory and very near Avebury, famous for it’s stone circles and, more recently, for the mysterious appearances of what have come to be known as “Crop Circles”.
The R.A.F. camp now no longer exists and where it once stood there are, at the time of writing, only open fields, the village of Avebury and Silbury Hill with its nearby famous White Horse cut into the chalk that underlies the wild grassland.

GHOSTS come in all shapes and sizes. They turn up everywhere, from castles, to campsites. An encounter will probably leave you terrified, as it did to the hero of our story.
In the mid-1830s a new estate of houses was built in Glasgow. Blythswood Square was tall and grand and represented a lifestyle people aspired to.
Captain W Smythe’s wife was particularly anxious to move to this area and delighted when her husband looked over a house with a view to taking out a lease on the property. Smythe was impressed. The rooms were airy and lovely; the only drawback was the bathroom, which spooked him.

It’s difficult to imagine holding a conversation with a dead person at the age of 11. But that was the reality for famous American psychic Allison Dubios.
The notion of people with psychic powers has always been of interest to many of us, so when we learned that an author, a woman who has had a US television series based on her life, was visiting Australia, the ABC jumped at the opportunity to speak with her.
Allison Dubois is a native of Pheonix, Arizona, where she was born in 1972.
