I've never seen a ghost, but I've felt them. Lots of them at the Gettysburg battlefield. Lots of people have reported the same thing. If you stand out there near where Pickett's charge was made their presence is unmistakable, like standing in a crowd of people but not being able to see them, if that makes sense. The thing I sensed was strong emotion: an overwhelming sense of feelings of sadness and resentment.

I'm not someone that claims to be a psychic or goes around looking for or sensing these things. I was just there out of historical curiosity. This was 15 years ago, and it never happened to me before anyplace else, nor has anything like it happened to me since.

I have been to Gettysburg battlefield, Yorktown battlefield and Custer’s last stand battlefield. Probably some others I have forgotten. I always experience sadness when I am in those places.

I’ve never seen anything either, but on several occasions I’ve felt strong feelings like that, coming from outside myself. One time I was at the Kimball Art Museum in Fort Worth with my dad, and the Kimball had a traveling exhibition of a bunch of very old African masks and various artworks. I lasted about five minutes in the room where they were before I had to leave. There was a VERY strong feeling of anger and threat in the room, almost palpable, and I couldn’t take it. My dad didn’t feel a thing.
