I'm glad October has ended. Speaking from the perspective of someone who was raised in a household where "Halloween" was a bad word, I've never found myself too interested in the season in which children – and adults – dress themselves up as ghosts and goblins and witches.

However, I've been thinking lately about ghosts. I've never had one appear to me the way they do on soap operas, transparent and weightless. But I don't think that means they don't exist.
