im sorry but your just not hearing me. im not talking about your fear level. everyone is more relaxed and calm in certain places. for example, maybe your child hood home or favorite park or beach. those places calm you and relax you. on the other hand, other environments are stressful and uneasy. maybe a place where your friend crashed his car an died or a place you had a bad experience in.Originally posted by Shibby View Post
If you want a direct answer to "Would my comfort level be different just because of it's past" the answer is no.
you asked "WHY" and implied that you should have no problem with a suicide house if you don't believe in ghost. my point is that you are just wrong.

I know what you are getting at with personal experience making you feel a certain way about an environment. Some people want to be close to a place where someone died because it makes them feel closer; some want to be far away because it's too painful to be reminded.
Let me ask you this, if that house was torn down and exact replica was built, would it still give you the creeps?

no, i would be perfectly fine with that. its what went on in that other house. blood and guts on the floor etc.. my mind would never be at ease. new house, new walls, new floors, etc.. no problem.Originally posted by Shibby View Post

Now we have come full circle back where we were. The original house wouldn't bother me because I didn't experience it. I wouldn't be bothered by the house, just as I wouldn't be bothered by some some unknown battle that had taken place on the same land as my house, or by the dungeon that is just a representation of history and not the present.

don't have to experience something to be uncomfortable with it. my mind wouldn't be at ease just knowing it happened.Originally posted by Shibby View PostNow we have come full circle back where we were. The original house wouldn't bother me because I didn't experience it.
we aren't full circle, we just see things differently. i bit on your question of "why" because I knew what you were implying about ghost..
i have painted a picture for you of why you can be uncomfortable with a place like that and still not believe in ghost.

I'm with you on the personal experience, I understand the words you are using about the history of a place, I just don't feel it the same way you do. I would say I understand the "why" you feel that way, I just can't connect with it. Can you connect with my feelings of stuff happens everywhere and I can't feel that some specific impersonal event will effect me?

sure, i can understand it. but i also know that there are some places that make you more or less comfortable. you may be more comfortable relaxing by a beautiful lake then you would say trying to relax in a ghost town like Chernobyl.Originally posted by Shibby View PostI'm with you on the personal experience, I understand the words you are using about the history of a place, I just don't feel it the same way you do.

You are comparing a beautiful lake to a place of destruction. How about you compare a beach in the Bermuda, a cabin in Courchevel, France or at a house at a vineyard in Tuscany. Now imagine a person died in each one (which probably has happened). I'm guess the last part is what changes everything. For me it doesn't.

good point. your comparison is better. and yea, the person dieing in a place does change it for me, especially if there was blood and brains in the house.Originally posted by Shibby View PostYou are comparing a beautiful lake to a place of destruction.
