Well, it's a mixed bag. There are many reliable people who tell their true ghost stories. These are often people who have no motive to deceive. They might be sharing an experience that they truly believe was a ghost encounter. However, human memory is fallible. Sometimes people might remember details incorrectly or add elements unconsciously over time. And of course, there are some who might be seeking attention and not be entirely truthful in their accounts. So, it's hard to say that all people who tell their true ghost stories are reliable.
Some people tell their true ghost stories because they need to share their spooky experiences. It could be a way to relieve the fear or shock they felt during those encounters.
The ghost stories told by the old people could not be confirmed because of the lack of scientific evidence. However, ghost stories are usually imagined and created by humans. They reflect human instinctive reactions to the unknown and fear.
Although we can't verify the authenticity of ghost stories, we can get information about the plot, characters, and theme of the story from them and draw inspiration and inspiration from them. At the same time, we can also use ghost stories as a form of entertainment to enjoy the fun of the story while eliminating the fear in our hearts.
Fear and superstition play a big role. People are often afraid of the unknown, and ghosts represent something that is beyond our normal understanding. When we hear a spooky story that gives us goosebumps, it's easy to believe it could be true, especially if it taps into our existing fears.
A group of friends went camping in a forest. In the middle of the night, one of them woke up to see a strange glowing figure outside their tent. It seemed to be floating. They all got out of the tent to investigate, but the figure disappeared. Later, they learned from local people that there were tales of a lost hiker who had died in that forest long ago and was said to haunt the area.
