Summary!

My name is Tatum Buzbee, and my topic is debating whether ghost are real or not. I picked this topic because I use to live next to a house that was said to be haunted. We use to be too scared to go around the house, but now that I have gotten older, I felt I it wouldn't be that bad to go check it out.
Going to the house that I use to live by was an interesting interaction. At first it seemed pointless untill we started taking pictures of the house. One of the pictures had a a fog-like figure infront of the roof. It was only in one of the pictures, which was the weird thing. Then th owner's son showed up, and he told us about his fathers death thirty five years ago. He warned us that the house wasn't safe and told us we needed to leave. He never told us why the house wasn't safe, and it left me suspicious. Also all of the supposably true ghost stories made me think ghost could possibly be real. One story called "Little Girl Following Me", seemed like it could actually be realistic because it was was written by the person who supposably experienced seeing a ghost. He said he was walking down the hall and saw a little girl. She wasn't evil, or trying to get revenge like most stories say, she just possibly died in the house or lived therre before she died.
I have learned that there are a ton of people throughout the world that actually believe in
ghost.
I have also learned many reasons why ghost would exist. Example, they lived in the house before they died so people who moved in later will see then, they were killed and want revenge, etc. I still don't really believe in ghost because i haven't really experienced a real ghost. I think people might think that see figures and assume it could be a ghost. I think if I were to do something differently, I would have gone back to the house to see what was so unsafe about it. I think it would have made the expierience much more interesting and probably scarrier, I might have actually had thoughts abouts ghost being real.

For my interaction, I went the the Bass Cemetery and an old house by my old neighborhood. While me and a couple of friends were at the cemetery nothing really happened. All we did was walk around a little and take pictures of the tombstones. Since nothing was happening we decided to leave and find somewhere else to go. I told them about the old creepy house by my old neighborhood, and they all agreed they wanted to go. Once we go there, we walked up to the house to look around. We took a couple of pictures, and the first one was normal. Then we decided to take another one and there was a big ball of fog infront of the house. After about ten minutes of being at the house, a man showed up and told us that we needed to leave because it wasn't safe there. He said his father had lived there thirty-five years ago before he died.
The Bass Cemetery didn't seem to haunted unlike what others say. But once we got to the house and took that picture, things got a little freaky. I couldn't figure out where the fog came from because we couldn't see it unless we looked at the picture. Also when the man randomly told us to leave it made me a little suspious. This changed my perspective a little about spirits or ghost, but I still can't decide if they could actually exist.
