Do you guys believe in spirits of the dead visiting you in your dreams ?

How many and what type of drugs do you take on an average day? Prescription drugs count too.

I believe it is a great plot device that a writer like Charles Dickens can use very effectively. Other than that, most of the spirits I see are 70 proof and consumed either as a shot or on the rocks.

Cue Sharkhunter double to quintuple post....

Juice is surrounded by the spirits of dead chickens in his dreams

DMT, Psilocybin, Mescaline, and LSD

No. Mine visit me when I'm awake. One actually saved my life once.

JackFrost9 sees dead people (reference to Six Sense).

In all seriousness it's just your mind trying to process the loss. Nothing more nothing less. Only spirits are in movies and behind the bar.

Yes and no. I think all reality is based on information exchange rather than physical matter, so if you dream about a deceased person, it's real enough to you. And that's what makes your reality: what's real to you. So who is to say that it wasn't a spirit that directed your brain to dream whatever you dream?

Of course in a practical sense, if your reality is vastly different than everyone else's reality you're gong to have problems, so if you're seeing ghosts that no one else can, you may need some help.

I've heard of dead relatives coming around in dreams when another relative is going to die.

Whether it is supernatural or our brain coming to terms with out - who knows. It would be nice if it was supernatural, because it means an existing after death.
