Imagine your brain is like a radio. Sometimes, it picks up signals that aren’t real, like when you hear music in the quiet room. People who get ‘ghosts’ in their heads are like radios that play strange songs even when there’s no music on the air. It happens because of how our brain listens and interprets sounds or sights.
Examples
- A child hears a whisper from their bedroom wall when everyone else is asleep.
- An elderly person sees a friend who passed away walking through the park.
- Someone on a long train ride feels like they're being followed by an invisible companion.
