What Are Ghosts?Ghosts are people in spirit, no longer having bodies.
They have remained earthbound for various reasons which can always be summed up as being fear.
Ghosts are people who need freed to move on in their life-journey.
When we "cross over" to the other side at what we call "death," we leave our attachment from this physical realm by leaving the vehicle (the body with the sensories) that keeps us in the physical world.
If a person does not proceed to the light (tunnel of light in near death experiences), then they remain earthbound until they are able to transition to the light (what some call heaven).
