Sleep paralysis is one of the most common phenomena that causes people to believe they are seeing ghosts. Although doctors don’t know exactly what’s happening to us at that moment, they hypothesize that it happens when a person enters REM sleep, during which their dreams are likely to be most vivid. People with sleep paralysis feel as if something is pressing on their chest, and they may also experience hallucinations.

According to Dan Dennis, an expert at the University of York in England, there are three types of hallucinations.

“The first consists of a sense of the presence of evil in the room, which can be manifested by a realistic idea of ​​an actual intruder. The second type often occurs in conjunction with the first, accompanied by sensations of chest pressure and suffocation. The third category includes hallucinations that do not usually occur in the other two categories, and consists of experiences Illusion of movement, like floating over a bed.”

Mold

There is a connection between ghost sightings and poor air quality. Toxic germs have been shown to cause mood swings, irrational anger, and even cognitive impairment if exposed for a long time.
