I don't know if ghosts are real and I'm not in a hurry to find out

I have never been sure about whether or not ghosts exist and have never been one to want to find out. Growing up my mom always told me not to play with Ouija boards as she said it just invited trouble and while I didn't listen to everything my mom always told me this was one area I never played with. I know some weird things have happened over the years that we can't explain. My mom said she used to babysit my cousins for my aunt and their house had a lot of weird things happen she couldn't explain. When my nephew was little he used to tell my sister he saw our grandma who died when I was little when they drove by the cemetery she was buried in and told her that she wanted to say she loves her. No one ever told my nephew who was maybe four or five at the time that she was even buried there and he knew things about her that no one told him. We still can't explain it. My nephew used to have a lot of nightmares and things and seemed to see and know things we couldn't explain. I have a friend who does ghost hunting and says she has found interesting things but has never had anything super scary happen and the activity they found was usually more protective of her than scary to her. I have never had any desire to play around with that kind of thing. I would love to go to some of the buildings and things she has gone to but not to seek out ghosts but for history reasons. We have a museum I don't live too far from that is said to be haunted and it's one of my favorite places to go but I also have never been there by myself or gone searching for ghosts. The museum has served many purposes over the years before becoming the museum. At one time it was an infirmary and later a poor farm. There is a little cemetery near it where people who died there were sometimes buried if their families didn't have money. They at one time didn't know who was buried where except for I think one person since they just had markers with numbers but I believe they found the names and where people were buried later. The museum has so much history and is this big beautiful building and is one of my favorite places to go but that said people claim it is haunted but once again I don't know I just know I'm not one to play around with that kind of thing. My friend once had his birthday party and I remember he got out an Ouija board and I was the only one who didn't participate. I told them if they summon evil spirits I'd leave them to fend for themselves. Nothing happened but it was just one of those things I took seriously. I to this day will not mess with an Ouija board nor will I play with that kind of thing. I'm inclined to believe ghosts are real just from experiences I've had and other people have had but I am not about to find out for sure. I'm a big fan of leaving some things alone and this is one of those things.

I believe in the existence of fully rational beings just like humans, called "Jinn." They can see us, but we cannot see them. However, we can see them if they manifest in a form we recognize, such as humans, cats, dogs, and others. Among them, there are both good and evil ones. They are also communities like us.

That's an interesting belief. I don't have any answers and as I said I'm not really looking for any. I'm happy to be ignorant in this area.
