I have never seen a ghost. I have however heard what I believe to be one.
When I was younger, an aunt and uncle of mine had a bit of land out in the country (basically in the boonies). Back then I liked going outside and exploring whenever I could, and their house was perfect for that, so I jumped at every oppurtunity to go there and visit. One time my entire family was there for a visit. So me, my two cousins, and my two siblings all went out to have a walk around their property. Eventually we worked our way to the dried up pond that was a major landmark (it was actually full sometimes but now it was dry as a bone). So we walked down into the bottom of it, talking. Suddenly we heard, very faintly, someone saying "Help me. Help me." This in itself would not have been very scary except that the day before that we had heard the EXACT same voice saying "Help me" and thought nothing of it. To hear it again the next day was pretty scary, and being the youngins that we were, we ran back to the house. Their parents told us it was nothing and later, when our oldest cousin was gone, her mom said it was probably her playing a trick on us.
Well we believed that story. Until one day a few years later. I was up visiting by myself. The cousin who had supposedly masterminded this trick was visiting my house, roughly 100 miles away from where we were. Not thinking at all about the voice we had heard before, me and my other cousin, who is about a year younger than me, went walking about the property. We make it to the pond and we suddenly hear "Help me. Help me." The same exact voice as before. Well this time we were pretty damn sure it wasn't his sister unless her voice can somehow carry 100 miles. So we ran back to the house again, and of course his parents didn't believe us, them being the religious people they are. Anyway that's the end of the story, not a very exciting conclusion but nonetheless there it is.
