If they are scarry its probably because they were in a lot of knife fights when they were alive.

Because of the the concept of your dead relatives hanging around and watching your every move is too unsettling.

Mainly because there are a lot stories saying ghosts are bad and scary. Imagine that you only know Casper the friendly ghost! I bet you will like a ghost to be ur fren !

In my opinion they are scary because we don’t quite understand ghosts (and I use that term lightly). I’m not exactly what you call a believer, but I think that people who simply write ghosts off are kind of silly. Sure, they might not be the long dead returning in spirit form, but that doesn’t mean that they aren’t phenomenon worth investigating, especially since they can provide use with insight as to how are brain works and comprehends the environments that surround us.

Because people are weird and everything connected with death seems to scare them.

Ghosts are only scary if they are rattling chains.

I agree with lady147 they think that they are still alive and they try to do things that people that are accually alive do. They are all around, you cant see them, some want revenge, ect.

Because they inspire people to say that they’re really demons in disguise.
