A poltergeist is commonly known as the most feared type of ghost, that is known to harass and torment the person it encounters. I am strong believer that this is the most feared type of paranormal activity, due to the fact that the way the spirt performs is in an aggressive and destructive manner. This is a very skeptical topic due to the fact that many movies have been created based on this topic, most of them are based off of true facts or a true story but the information is never proved to be real. In situations like these many people have a belief that it is not true, due to the circumstances being unbelievable. In the previous centuries incidents that occurred had minimal scientific facts to backup the situation that occurred, which started a belief that the loud noises and aggressive behaviour was a spirt. Many pranks are played in order to make it seem like it is a poltergeists spirt which can make every story and image skeptical, due to the fact that it could be fake, just made to look real. Overall i believe that the information we have present based on the topic consists of videos, articles, image and stories and this information alone can be fake and altered to look as if it is real. This causes many issues with which information is real and what is fake.

 

I believe some incidences which occurred in this case were not genuine and only were documented in that way because the observer may have had a type of misunderstanding for what was actually taking place at the time, due to the lack of resources available in terms of paranormal research and understanding.  I’m not saying there is not any truth to this case because I firmly believe there is, I just feel that in certain situations the unidentified natural or confusion of what was happening caused many individuals to jump to conclusion as to what was causing them.  What would also add to this would be the knowledge of a potential poltergeist being present and experiencing any sort of unexplained phenomena and immediately assuming that it must be a poltergeist.

 

  I feel this is relevant because documentation is important when considering whether or not sources are credible and when gaining a deeper understanding into how individuals perceive information relating to extreme paranormal occurrences.

 

With the age of technology came the ability for people experiencing such phenomena to capture it onto film, in hopes of proving or adding validity to their stories.  Some very intriguing “evidence” has been produced showing a wide range of paranormal activity, much of which is mischievous and annoying.  But in some instances where poltergeists are said to be present, their presence is much darker and malicious.  Poltergeists in extreme situations have been described as evil and manipulative, and will target certain people due to a variety of emotional and psychological issues.

 
This video depicts a man who has a history of experiences in his apartment, in this video he attempts to capture the poltergeist activity. 

 

These kinds of videos can be good and bad.  There is unfortunately a lot of potential money to be made if a video is popular which caused people to fake videos and create them for profit.  I searched thoroughly and believe that this gentleman might actually be credible.  This type of video is important when considering pseudoscience because they allow for people to make their own judgement on the truth behind the video.  This gives insight into the many different factors that are relevant when considering how people perceive paranormal events.  I feel that most people use a type reasoning that can be associated with “unexplained” , in which an individual will see a video allegedly showing actual paranormal events when in reality they are faked to seem genuine.  

 

This type of response from viewers and the types of videos that are faked do nothing but discredit actual paranormal and poltergeist related occurrences.

In this website it explains the top 10 poltergeists in the world. It also gives a brief explanation of each story and who was involved and how it all started. Though this website only shows the top ten experiences, I am sure that there is more than just those ones, these are the top ones this website feels are the best and to talk about. The most completing one I find was the one in the graveyard. As everyone now thinks that J.K Rowling the author who wrote the harry potter books had some inspiration from the evil ghost of that graveyard named Thomas Riddell. Even though these are very compelling experiences of poltergeists, it is very hard to tell if this is true or false. As, I have not experienced any of this sort myself it’s hard to say if this actually happened. Though I also don’t doubt that this had actually happened and these people really experienced this emotion as it’s hard to tell when you are in this situation. One major red flag I noticed in this one would have to be Ideological support. Since most people have trouble believing the fact that this could be true, the folks that deal with this is probably dealing with ethical and or politically claims as they really do accept their claims to be true. Another red flag is Mystical energy, as a lot of this is based on some sort of energy force who knows what is the real cause of the poltergeist. No one really knows what these folks go through and rater it’s mystical energy or real energy force we will never know until we ourselves become face to face with the experience. 

            This picture has an explanation of someone going to this house and experience what others before him have experienced in this house. With all the things moving around on it’s own, and random breathing down the neck it was hard for this person to say that none of this was happening to this person. This person went into each room to get experience for themselves and they have got some in each of these rooms and gave an explanation for each room. Some red flags that I see here would have to be Proof by verbosity. As this person was looking for proof and was getting these experience the person that went into the house was trying to look for a reason though there wasn’t much of a reason of poltergeist happening. One reason for belief would have to be simplicity. As people go through these experiences it’s hard for them to come up with any other explanation then it must be paranormal. People hate the fact that it could just well be their imagination or just plain something else beside Paranormal. Another reason for belief is Ideology as believe in the paranormal comes down to religion a lot, most people look to it and hope to find answer and hope that God will help them and not let this effect them in anyways, and have no harm done to them. As Ideology is a set of ideas and make up goals, people turn to paranormal in hopes that they find something in order to get rid of this event.
