When I was around 6, I thought that ghosts were real. I've seen so many videos about this event saying that ghosts were going to haunt us on Halloween because it's the only day of the year they can manifest themselves. I was convinced that we could interact with them only at night, and I had the feeling that I had seen some in my room and outside when it's dark during October 31st
Over time, I abandoned these thoughts because I had other things to do than constantly think about those imaginary ghosts, but recently I got back in touch with my cousins and one of them (the smallest one who's 5) told me that there are monsters in their house, but they're hiding during the day. Of course the older ones told him that they don't exist, but it makes me think that all children see anomalies that don't exist and I don't exactly know why...
There are plenty of other examples of children seeing strange things. Is it normal for them to think like that?
