If a surface is wet, or the bottom of the object is wet, it can move very slowly.

I used to get this regularly and can be very scary if you don’t understand it, especially if your mind believes there is an evil spirit in the room with you.
You cannot even speak, let alone shout for help.

i am always perplexed by those that are "open minded" but dont believe the knowledge that gives us a cure for polio and make mobile phones work.

It’s all relative really. If you went back in time to the 1600s and showed the locals a few electronic gizmos you’d be accused of witchcraft as they would not be able to grasp how these things worked. Similarly fast forward a few hundred years and a lot of current unexplained phenomena would have rational explanations.

My Grandparents and a neighbour 100% saw an apparition of someone.
My great Grandmother 100% experienced the 3 knocks phenomenon.
I never had any doubt that they weren't telling the truth.

Depends what you include in Paranormal. Ghosts and fairies, no. But I am intrigued with reincarnation stories, toddlers with memories of wives and children etc. and am sure that most of the reports are sincere.
Some of the stuff theoretical physicists come up with, is pretty far from normal too.

Define normal.
I also suffer from sleep paralysis. not had it for a couple of years but used to get it a lot in my raving days when I pulled all nighters then crashed. So, so, weird but I am also fascinated by it.
Corrected for you.

Why would you "correct" something other people saw? You weren't there.
Why would three independent people state what they saw in plain sight a mere 10 metres away if it wasn't in fact visible to all?
They saw it, plain as the monitor in front of your face.
Don't pretend you're so enlightened you know everything about the cosmos. You don't.
Ok, ghosts and ghoulies, fairies, the bogeyman all exist because people have seen them.

I think you'll find there is far more documented evidence of people seeing/experiencing a "ghost" by an overwhelming % than when compared to the other three you named.
People are still reporting paranormal experiences all the time in this day and age. I've never heard anyone talk about "ghoulies, fairies, the bogeyman" in a modern context.
Just because three of the four things you mentioned might be based on mythology doesn't mean you can lump everything in the one basket and disregard other peoples experiences when so many different people of differing background have experienced/seen something unexplainable.
Ok, fair point, let's discredit the others. What I am saying is that I am amazed by the number of people who believe in let's say god and ghosts based on the fact that someone else has told them a story about how they once saw them.
I just find it really difficult to understand that someone believes Jesus performed miracles because it says so in a book, god exists because a guy in the middle east said that he spoke to him or that ghosts exist because their grandmother once saw one.
Pretty weak evidence, don't you think?

Belief goes beyond just a visual concept.
Tell me about love, do you believe in the concept of love?
