00:00Do you personally believe in ghosts or the paranormal?

00:03I do.

00:04I am one of the biggest chickens you will ever meet.

00:06I am afraid of the dark still at the age of 56.

00:10I'm afraid of the monster under my bed, the boogeyman, all those things.

00:14When my son was little, it was really difficult when, you know, if he would ever, I was worried

00:18he would come into the room and say, Dad, I see the boogeyman.

00:21And I couldn't tell him he wasn't real because I believed that the boogeyman was real.

00:25So that was a challenge.

00:26But I think, yeah, I am convinced that there are more things in heaven and earth than

00:31are dreamt of in our philosophies, as Hamlet said to his dear friend Horatio in that Shakespeare

00:36play.

00:37But I'm fascinated by the various theories of what a ghost actually is.

00:45And I love the fact that, you know, some theories are that ghosts are the spirits of the departed

00:52who may be trapped on this mortal plane and they haven't properly escaped and properly

00:59shucked off all of this mortal coil, as Shakespeare and Hamlet would say again.

01:03Let's see.

01:09Let's see.

01:10When abilities are weak, what a ghost actually can do.

01:16But that's a weird thing.

01:19Let's see.

01:22Let's see.

01:24Let's see.

01:27Let's see.

01:28Let's see.
