Paranormal activity, so what does this actually mean? The word paranormal means that it cannot be scientifically explained. It is also generally activities that are done by supernatural energy, mainly known as ghosts, demons, spirits, angels etc. They are also activities that a normal human being cannot perform. Many people report such cases but the truth behind all of this is still a mystery. According to recent studies, it is said that three quarters of Americans believe in the paranormal while nearly 1 in 5 claim to have seen a ghost. Quite spooky and shocking, right? Where there is no end to this paranormal activity. Well, there are some good explanations for some activities, like since an Italian psychologist looked in the mirror one morning and found a grizzled old man staring back at him. Later research confirmed that the illusion is surprisingly common when you see your reflection in half light, perhaps our brain struggles to construct the shape of your face and in order to make a reflection, it starts filling the blank spaces, even if it leads to adding appearance of old people, bear, ghost like image, etc anything.
Paranormal activity is a highly debatable and controversial topic. Some of them say that it's our brain which creates hallucinations. Some of them say that it's real. So, it is up to us whether we believe in such activity or not.
