There are more than just one type of apparition. Here is a list of some below. Crisis Apparitions - This is when a person is of course in or was in a crisis. Either they are dying or have just died and are appearing in spirit form to their family or other loved ones to send the message that they are are going or have all ready left the physical world. Some of these apparitions will point to their fatal injuries. Crisis apparitions can appear in peoples dreams as well. Apparitions of the Dead - This form of course is the appearance of someones spirit that has all ready died. Usually to someone they were close to like family or others that are grieving for that persons soul. They appear in order to give information to their loved ones about unsettled or unfinished business that they feel should be taken care of. Reciprocal Apparitions - In this case both the apparition and the person that sees it are still alive and remember seeing each other. Someone will be so lonely, worried, or missing the other that they will appear to that person in the form of an apparition and both will remember it happening. They can also be called ghosts of the living. This is a good example of how powerful the human mind and will actually is. Deathbed Apparitions - An apparition that appears to a dying person, very close to the time of their death. They can be of dead relatives, angels, or biblical figures. read more here... www.studiesoftheparanormal.com/apparitions.htmlIf any one knows of any other kinds of apparitions that this article doesn't touch base on, please feel free to post about it here!

Well, I have this (friend) who saw an apparition twice in a house she lived in and it looked like a Viking. Any idea on what it might have been? Because she would really like to know what it could have been.

Because she would really like to know what it could have been. Just how does one "look like a Viking" while still adhereing to the Victorian dress code? Maybe he didn't get the dress code memo. Maybe Chrissy was right and it was the porn effecting my friends brain.

[/quote] If you can walk like an Egyptian and talk like a pirate, why can't you look like a Viking? Maybe it was the ghost of an Egyptian porn actor who was visiting Victorian London, and was on his way to a costume party dressed as a Viking, when he was run down and killed by runaway carriage.

I've only seen 1 "apparition" and even though it was extremely real to me, I am quite certain it was nothing more than a trick of the mind. I have convinced myself of that... trick of the mind.

Hoobs! I think I have solved the Viking apparition mystery! ;D Mustaf Hahckwadi was an Egyptian pornographer. During Victorian times, everything Egyptian was all the rage in England and Europe, so he decided to go to London to expand his business. While there, he was invited to a costume party. His wife said, "Mustaf, you must go as Pharaoh Tutankhamen." But, Mustaf wanted to be a pirate so he could carry a sword, wear an eye-patch, and say things like, "Aye matey, shiver me timbers, Arrrr." So he ordered a pirate costume from a French costumer who owned a shop in London. But the shop messed up and sent a Viking costume and it arrived too late for Mustaf to change the costume. He had to attend the party as a Viking. Mustaf was very upset, and while on his way to the party, he was dejected, and inattentive as he crossed a street. He was struck and killed by a runaway horse drawn cab. So, poor Mustaf continues to roam the earth in search of a pirate costume, but forced to spend eternity in the Viking costume in which he died. How did the Ghost get to the U.S. you ask? Good question. Through extensive research I have discovered that the costumer, Jean-Jacques D'massier, was Hoob's friend's great, great, great, great grandfather. Of course, I could be wrong.

I'm curious about it, and half paranoid that I might accidently do something like that Imagine me thinking hard about my crush and then I somehow end up popping up randomly in front of him. What if I'm wearing embarrassing pajamas?
