Quite awhile ago, when I was still in high school, my dad saw a ghost.
He was sitting in his normal chair in the kitchen, drinking coffee and watching the birds eat out of the bird feeder in our back yard. We have a 'the duck hunter is home/gone' sign where you switch out the home/gone part. He claims that this sign moved, so he went over to inspect it. Once he got over there, he saw the chair in our kitchen where my Grandpa used to always sit, move on its own. He then saw an apparition and grabbed a camera that was sitting on our kitchen counter and took a photo. The photo clearly shows some sort of ghostly figure floating in the air and it really does look like a traditional 'ghost' with sort of a head, and arms and a tapered bottom. I can't imagine what else he would've been taking a picture of, as there was nothing remarkable in the photo except for the ghostly apparition. My dad swore on his life that he was telling the truth and I never doubted it for a second.
Do I believe in ghosts? I don't know. I do know that the picture my father took was real and that he died truly believing that his father's ghost came to visit him.
