Maybe not for a eternity but I'm such a person watcher, I think I would enjoy it for a while.

No I may see and hear things that I wouldn't want to.

No, it looks really boring. They hang around in dark, disused places and hardly anything ever happens. I'd die of boredom if I wasn't already dead 😂

I’d want to be a ghost for a while but only on the condition I’m not stuck and can choose when I’m done with it and that I’m not confined to one place so I can nose around where ever I fancied.

so basically like being invisible but without the body. And being able to blink to other destinations without having to get the bus 😂

For an experience like a day out as one, yes

But not permanently

No, because then I wouldn't exist 😁

Better than leaving altogether I think Sad

True but there’s still plenty of people that would believe you existed! 🤣

depends on if you can interact with items etc, the security services would be intriguing , then how long for as a ghost and would you be invisible or visible etc

Only if I could cause mischiefs like Kay Hammond in Blithe Spirit!

JaneJeffer · 13/04/2024 17:15

Yes then I could travel the world for free and stay in all the best places.

I want to be a phantom hitchhiker. I already have my stretch of road picked out.

Uricon2 · 13/04/2024 17:19

Wouldn't mind for a bit, as long as I could have the whole Gothic glam floaty ethereal thing going on and stun onlookers with my pallid beauty. Also want a choice of where to haunt (not the offices where I spent decades, please)

Yes for a little while, there are a few people I’d like to haunt. Definitely not for eternity though.
