One thing that has always struck me as disingenuous about reported hauntings is,..people always describe the ghosts as being dressed in some manner of clothing,...usually old style clothes.
I suppose I could be convinced that a body has a ghost that either leaves or hangs around if sufficient evidence was presented. But I'll never believe that clothes have ghosts.
... I just don’t find joking about Biblical stuff funny This who did or do usually find out soon enough their folly.
Some peoples interpretations of scripture are worth a chuckle. I would not call that mocking God, just the sheep brain fools he made in abundant numbers.

Tom, as is so often typically the case, there are so many Christians that don't know their Bible.

The Bible says there is no contact between the dead and the living.
Then what about 1 Samuel 28 when the witch of Endor conjured up the spirit of Samuel for Saul? Wasn’t there dead and living communications there? Read 1 Samuel 28:15
And then what about Jesus on mount Transifiguration? Matthew 17 3 Wasn’t Jesus who was alive communicating with the dead?
No Jesus wasn't communicating with the dead. God is the God of the living. Moses and Elias are/were very much alive. It's only Moses' earfly body that is dead. St. Elias actually by-passed that whole dying thing enroute to Heaven.

Reminds of something on the radio. “Always wear your good clothes, if you die today what you are wearing will be your ghost clothes” 😂😂

PS, yep, you's as twisted as i thot you was
The desert is a true treasure for him who seeks refuge from men and the evil of men. In it is contentment In it is death and all you seek (Quoted from "The Bleeding of the Stone" Ibrahim Al-Koni)

its every deceased humans body that is only dead...or asleep.
God has custody of all spirits from the deceased as they await judgement. Those who believe that Samuel was really the crafty devil in disguise would then need to understand that God would have permitted the devil to take that guise and fulfil the request Saul made to the woman.
1 Samuel 28:15 "And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted(disturbed) me, to bring me up?"
Saul had the woman stir or awake the dead Samuel from his rest or sleep.
The woman was suspicious and cautious of calling up the dead, for Saul himself had banned such practices and punished people with execution for doing such in his kingdom... Saul however came in disguise so as not to alert the woman. When the apparition of Samuel appeared the woman was made aware that her client was Saul in disguise.
1 Samuel 16:14 (God sends an evil spirit upon Saul) "But the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and a distressing spirit from the LORD troubled him."
1 Samuel 16:23 " And it came to pass, when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and played with his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him."

My dad's been gone a long time now, but I've always thought he comes back every once in a while. Dad was a great practical joker in his day, and every once in a while, I inexplicably loose track of something. I'm sure my car keys were hanging on the hook in the kitchen, but I'll find them on the sink in the bathroom. I'll find my boots laced and tied sitting in the corner when I'm sure I had them opened up to dry out. Just little stuff like that. It's happened enough to make me just pause, smile, and remember the old man with fond memories. I like to think he just wants to make sure I'm not forgetting about him.
Dad always loved seeing the chickadees when he was out deer hunting. Now it seems like every year they come and find me. One frequently lands on my gun barrel or even on the bill of my cap if I'm sitting still. I like to think this is Dad dropping by to say "Hi".
I've never had any scary occurrences, but there is a hotel near here that's reported to be haunted, and stuff frequently happens there. Bumps in the middle of the night, lights inexplicably coming on or off, clomping sounds of a horse going by, etc.
