It explains that while ghosts are a nearly universal cultural construct used to process loss and societal fears, a significant percentage of the population reports personal encounters, prompting scientific investigation. Skeptical perspectives offer neurological and environmental explanations for sightings, such as pareidolia, sleep paralysis, and infrasound, while paranormal researchers rely on observational evidence from tools like EMF meters to argue that some phenomena defy natural explanations.
