Why do people believe in spirits and ghosts?
<|assistant|>
People have believed in spirits and ghosts for thousands of years because of a mix of fear, uncertainty, and an interest in unexplained phenomena. Spirits and ghosts often tap into humans’ sense of dread and play on ancient fears of the unknown. It is believed that spirits and ghosts remain in places, or come back to the world of the living, for a variety of reasons, ranging from a need to make amends to unfinished business or simply wanting to communicate with the living.
