I believe in energy left behind. There may be types of energy that we haven’t yet discovered.

No. If you discount hearsay, things people recount that happened to them as small children or suggestible teenagers, when very tired or half-asleep or spooked by a new house or isolated environment, when they were primed to expect something paranormal because they were in an old house/graveyard/somewhere they’d been told was haunted/ghost tour, obvious instances of sleep paralysis, animals behaving like animals, babies waving at thin air, coincidence, a human desire for pattern, meaning and for loved ones to survive death — then there’s not much left to be puzzled by.

Some people claim they've seen relatives.. so why do some reach out and some don't?
I mean it cut me pretty deep when I seen a little girl say "then why doesn't my mummy turn into a ghost and visit me" that's when I decided I didn't believe

Not as manifestations of the supernatural, no.

I didn't until I encountered one myself. Absolutely, definitely believe.
