This Psychic Medium Discusses Whether Or Not You Can Be Friends With Ghosts
With how vast this world is, there are so many different ways of thinking, believing, and acting. Different cultures have different traditions and ways of honoring the dead.
From my schooling, I have learned a little bit about a lot of different cultures. I in no way am an expert. But what I have learned is that in every culture, there is some belief in ghosts and spirits.
Normally when I think of spirits or ghost, what comes to mind is pop-culture references. Casper the friendly ghost, Scooby-Doo movies, and shows.
I think of the ghosts in the Harry Potter movies, like Nearly Headless Nick, oh, I mean Sir Nicholas. I don’t think of someone becoming friends with a ghost in real life.
Which is something that happens, apparently.
Now, for certain things, I’m a skeptic. I don’t believe in vampires or werewolves, but I do believe that there are ghosts and spirits out in the world that haven’t found peace.
There are hundreds of TikTokers that do spirit work and explain what they feel, hear, etc., when they do their work with the spirits.
One TikToker named Rebekah Carmichael, who is also a medium, actually explains her experience with the ghosts that have befriended her.

“So yeah, some of my friends are ghosts. But most of my friends are alive and still in the physical, just clarifying that,” Rebekah explained.
How does one become friends with a ghost? Like, to me, that just seems mind-boggling.
“How did this happen? Well, I didn’t go looking for it, that’s for sure,” Rebekah said. “The reality is I’ve been interacting with ghosts from all over the place for most of my life. The reality is I was in denial of that for most of my life.”
“A few years ago, I moved to Wilmington, North Carolina. One of the most haunted places in the United States, by the way.”
“I was inundated; there were ghosts everywhere. I could not deny it anymore. What was even cooler was this place was so haunted that there are other people that are like, ‘yep, it’s haunted.'”
Now I live in a town in Wisconsin that is known to have several haunted places in the town. Like on top of our main landmark, The Big M, which is literally just a big M made out of white painted stones on an old mining mound.
One of the town’s original families had some mysterious things happen during a storm one night, and they were unexplained still to this day.
There are also several residents’ halls on the town university campus that are known to be haunted; even the old local lead mine is known to be haunted by the lives of miners who passed.
Though I am skeptical about becoming friends with ghosts, I won’t deny that they are spirits and ghosts that roam the country and world. Back to the ghost guide.
“So I was able to get that confirmation from other people as well,” Rebekah continued. “The first house I moved into was very haunted. And the woman that was regularly haunting it really wanted to communicate with us. So I was like, sure.”
“I got a job as a ghost tour guide, thought that be fun. And anyway, I started to meet other spirits. Two of them, George and Rupert, are actually spirits I have regular playlists on. I started to check out more historic places around here, and I started to meet more spirits. That’s how we picked up Jimothy.”
So at this point, she has talked about 4 ghosts that have befriended her, and I am intrigued. Why am I intrigued? She is very detailed in the way she is talking about these ghosts and when she meets them, and what their names are.
If this was someone that was just talking about this to seek attention, the names would probably be a lot more generic.
She goes on to talk more about how the friendships with those first four ghosts have led to other ghosts introducing themselves. She never sought out the company of ghosts; she is just more in tune with them than some other people are.
What’s a ghost story from where you are from, and how would you react if you met a ghost in real life?
