Question

Why are some people incredibly sensitive to paranormal activity while others don't experience anything?

Answer 1

everyone is different, simple as that

Answer 2

some people are better actors

Answer 3

Great Question!! Also..why does it take so long for those people to begin to become aware of the paranormal? Some say that it only happens to those who already believe in it..but I don't believe that. I think that a lot of people who don't believe might have experiences for a long time...but it just doesn't "click" with them that these are paranormal experiences. In hindsight..they probably look back and say"Oh...THAT'S what that was all about !!"  I didn't have any..that I knew of..for most of my life...then all of a sudden a LOT of things happened to me. Then I looked back and realized other things had been happening that I wasn't aware of .  Most of us are told as children about our "guardian angels"..but we probably REALLY don't believe it. If we REALLY did..we'd probably be scared..as children. I thought paranormal experiences were just for saintly people.  I think sometimes other people bring spirits into our lives. This could  even happen at church. Maybe then they go home with us. Maybe this ability is passed down through families.  Maybe people are just too busy with life to notice paranormal things.

Answer 4

I dont think there is an answer why are some poeple better at math then others?

Answer 5

Because some people are great actors and other people aren't....i.e. it's not real.

Answer 6

Because some people are gullible and some aren't?

Answer 7

Maybe if everyone were to experience it, it wouldn't become an interesting topic of discussion.

Plus, we wouldn't have all those cool stories to hear while sitting around the campfire eating smores.

I always try to find the logic behind any activity.

So I don't jump to conclusions that paranormal activity is happening.

Maybe I'm more open minded for things to happen since I've had my share of experiences.

And maybe it's my willingness to communicate with the other side to find out if time travel really does exist.

Like in the Star Trek series where they kept talking about worm holes in time.

Answer 8

Some people are just that sensitive, they are very open to anything being possible.

For some it is in the blood line; Everyone in my family thought my Aunt had it the strongest, till they heard some of my stories. I talked to my Aunt, to find out many of our relatives were sensitive to the spiritual world and have experienced paranormal things happening. I grew up thinking it was normal, that everyone had experienced these things, because I always seen spirits since I was four. And other family members, hearing their stories.

On my mother's side it's in the blood line, me my Aunt, my Grandmother, Great grandmother had it the strongest, and others down the line that were burned at the steak accused of being witches. Back in them days they burned everything they didn't understand.

Our family members many were-are able to have OBE's astral travel, see and speak to spirits, ESP abilities.

Answer 9

I would really like to believe in the paranormal.  I really want to experience a ghost.  Even though I have tried because of other people who have been in my life, I just never could accomplish it.  Needless to say, it is hard to believe in something which never presents itself to you.  I have given up.

Answer 10

It's often said that perception is a function of preconception. In other words, those people who already are conditioned to believe in the paranormal either by upbringing, peers or other influences are more likely to interpret  feelings, dreams, visual illusions and so forth as paranormal events.
