Did my son really talk to a ghost tonight?

Question

As my son (2 1/2 years) was falling asleep tonight, he said, "No, I'm not ghost, you're ghost". He said it twice. He asked the "ghost" to give him his yellow hat. When my wife asked him if he said "ghost" he said yes. We've never introduced him to the word "ghost" before. Ever.

She asked him who he was talking to. "Mr. Joe Joe" he responded. When she asked him where was the ghost, he pointed across the room, "Right there Mommy".

We're not ghost story kind of people, but this was creapy.

Any thoughts from the supernaturally educated?

Thanks

Answer 1

thats ******* scary as h**l.

Answer 2

Hello,

I believe he just may have.  First off, ghosts are attracted to children for many reasons and one is because they can see them easily.  Childrens minds are not befuddled with the way adult minds are and so are more receptive. Two, because children represent life and the child may remind them of that fact or someone they loved very much. Three, your son called him Joejoe and was arguing with him.  I suspect JoeJoe does not know he is dead and may perceive your son as the ghost.  I suggest researching who JoeJoe is at the local library or on the internet.  Your son is not frightened of him and neither should you be but I do suggest not telling him he is lying or you can see him when you can not.  Your son might get confused about him telling the truth and no one believing him.  Another very important thing, do not let him spend alot of time with JoeJoe.  The ghost has latched on to your son as a way to communicate and he is going to be very stubborn about losing that communication.  He can spend time alone but if he is spending too much time by himself, find other activities for him.  I hope this helps you///////Tyger//////

Answer 3

He did talk to a ghost.  The real question is, was there a ghost there?

Answer 4

Try google buddy.

Answer 5

Yeah it is possible your son has talked to a ghsot because children and animals are usually sensitive to the paranormal.

Answer 6

i hope this relieves you, but your son was not talking to a ghost. there are 2 possible reasons for this occurance;

1) he made up a person and named him JoeJoe. (children=imaginary friends..happens sometimes)

2)he saw an angel...(they really exist, but ghosts do not..there are such things as spirits, but not ghosts, and your son did not make contact with one)

Answer 7

I believe that your son is interacting with a spirit but I think it is a demon spirit. Demons are very evil spirits and oftentimes they interact with children in order to get a foothold into a particular family so he can eventually destroy the family unit (by causing arguements, strife, anger etc). As such I think you have the right to be very concerned. Oftentimes demons pretend to be ghosts or people who have died or they pretend to be good spirits in order to deceive the person and in your case the child into believing that they are harmless, friendly and innocent. This Mr Joe character is a demon and I don't know what religion you belong to but I know that you need to do the following. The first thing you need to do is pray asking Jesus Christ to protect you and your family.By praying I mean simply going somewhere privately and just talk to God like you would a normal person asking him for his protection. Then you need to command those spirits to leave your home in the name of Jesus Christ.By commanding them I mean telling them forcefully as if you could see them (like you would a human being) to leave you and your house alone, using the name of Jesus Christ.You need to also talk to your son explaining to him that Mr. Joe is a very bad spirit and he needs to tell him to leave him and his house alone in the name of Jesus Christ. If the problem persists or gets worst you can ask a pastor to bless your home, to pray for the safety of you and your family and for his advice on the situation.

I am going to give you a list of warning signs to look for that can make you aware more of the influence the demon is having on your son:

1.Is your son's behaving unusual? Is he angrier, more defiant than usual? Is he injuring a pet, using curse words, threatening to do bad things, threatening to hurt somebody

2. Is he listening to Mr Joe more than listening to either you or his mom? Whereby is he disobeying what you are saying and instead listening and following what Mr. Joe says.

3. Is his interaction with Mr. Joe becoming more frequent and unusual? Can you see or hear him talking to someone and laughing with someone when there is nobody visible to the eye with him.

Answer 8

wow ! he's amazing

i wish i have a ghost friend

and yeah, i think he was talking to one

Answer 9

he did see a ghost, because babies are open minded dont know what ghost are.

Answer 10

The first explanation would be that your son did actually talk to a ghost and was displaying some sort of mediumistic abilities.

However it is more likely that he was speaking to an imaginary friend, playing some sort of game or just recounting previous experiences from the day such as hearing the name Joe Joe/ seeing a yellow hat etc..

Its certainly very interesting, see if it continues and if it happens again try to find out if it is the same ghost and generally get as much information as you can.  

Answer 11

yes. try and talk to a psychic. a good one. theres alot of fakes out there though... and get the "ghost" out.

and yea that is really scary. if it were me i would move out immediately

Answer 12

Call in a Priest or Psychic.

You don't know what you are messing with, it could be a ghost, it could be make believe, it could be an Angel, but it could also be something dark, and id rather not say what, but be sure to call in help now.  

Answer 13

did sound like your son spoke to a ghost. apparantly ghosts speak to alot of children because they have so much energy (so there attracted to them more than adults) and because young children, normally are not afraid.

Ask your son what he thinks the ghost is here for or if he is afraid of him.

in some cases ghosts will speak to children so they dont feel alone.

if there bad then call upon an exorcist to get the ghost out.

if your son or self dont feel any negativity then you can either let the ghost visit (as weird as that sounds) or still call the exorcist to make it pass.

if your not sure there even is a ghost, call upon a paranormal investigator - but do your research as there are some fakes - and ask them to investigate if there is a ghost in the house.

good luck with everything!

and i just want to point out that 'Bengltygr' is right. do some research on 'joe joe' and dont let him get attatched to your son. Ghosts who latch on can become miserable and will end up haunting the house.
