Or anything demonic?

When I was psychotic and completely manic, I saw 2 female ghosts on the side of the road across the street from a cemetery.
They were dressed in old fashioned bizarre clothing and one of them was standing still with her back facing the road.
I was tripping from psychosis!
Yes, when psychotic. My brain tricked me into seeing and believing them to be real. I thought I was psychic for years.
The medication has helped stop me seeing ghosts.
I’ve never seen a ghost, but I heard a very loud Indian war cry at about 3:00 am before. If it was real it would have woken up everybody in the building.
I used to see demons hovering over my bed. Ugliest things ever.
But I’ve seen those movies Ghost and Poltergeist. Does that count?
Ghost kinda sucked

Never seen a ghost but something grabbed me on the shoulder once. Turned around and no-one there. Besides that iv’e had an OBE once. I was sleeping and when i woke up i was floating above my bed facing the bare light bulb. I felt like a helium balloon just bouncing off the ceiling which felt like static. I was really stoked to be up there but my excitement got the better of me and i fell back into my resting body and sat up. I felt hundreds of tiny little electric currents run through my body. It was an amazing experience but i wanted to prove to myself it wasn’t a dream.
So i laid back down and closed my eyes and ‘willed’ myself to rise out of my body and i felt those same electric currents again. I was up and floating again. The most peaceful feeling ever. Haven’t had another experience since.
This was me before my schizophrenia diagnosis

Yeah, the old standby for a costume for Halloween when I was a little kid.
If we couldn’t afford costumes to go trick or treating we would grab an old sheet and cut two holes in it to see out of, and drape it over ourselves and go as a ghost.
That was in the 1960’s when people would hand out carmel apples and you didn’t have to worry that they had a razor blade in them, People used to hand out home made cookies and popcorn and you didn’t have to worry that they were poisoned.
Yes. I saw an old woman many years ago. But I don’t think she was a ghost. It was an hallucination.
I’ve seen a ghost before. He was floating over a river. It didn’t scare me.
When I was about 5 years old the ghost of my great nan who had just died sat on the end of my bed and I had a conversation with her.
I always remember it for some reason.
I doubt it was a hallucination at that age, but you never know.
I experienced plenty of demons when I was older and psychotic, but we all know what this kind of thing is like - it’s not really worth a second thought as it’s nonsense.
No haven’t seen a ghost but when psychotic I saw a man I had briefly dated sitting on a bench as I drove by
When I took abilify for a brief time I saw people who were not there.
I think I may have. I know we’re not supposed to feed into each other’s delusions so I’ll refrain from sharing too much. The thing is three of the times I’ve experienced such a phenomenon, I was with other people and they saw the same thing. About two years ago I was talking with someone about it and we both agreed with our diagnosis, no one would believe our stories. All three times I was with different people and there were at least two others who saw the same thing. Weird stuff.
I’ve heard and felt them. I used to think it was just part of my sz, but all my siblings are convinced the house we grew up in had ghosts because they experienced weird stuff too. None of them have psychosis
My friend and I saw a big ole elk cross the road. Somehow we both knew it was a ghost but we both saw it.
I felt a presence behind me once in the middle of the night wen psychotic it was really scary

Out of my peripheral vision.
