I am fascinated by this stuff and have read loads of books etc on various subjects, but sadly don't have any stories of my own. I do have a good one from my grandfather though - He used to work as a janitor in a school and one day he was in the boiler room and he saw a man shovelling coal into thin air. He later spoke with the headmaster of the school who told him that a previous janitor had died many yaesr ago when the boiler exploded back in the days when they still used old fashioned boilers. My mother also swears that shortly after the birth of my younger brother she awoke to find her father, who had died a few months earlier, sitting on the end of her bed. She believes that he was visiting one last time to check on the family as a whole and the grandson he never met.

When I was a kid I made a pact with my best friend at the time that whichever of us died first would visit the other one to prove the existence of ghosts. I'm not in touch with him anymore so I don't know if the pact still stands... Hey Ric, how about whichever of us dies first makes an effort to contact the other? Hopefully in the afterlife the distance between Brazil and England won't matter so much
