Two years ago the tsunami killed nearly 20,000 people in Japan. Many people report stories about ghosts in the area. One man says that he felt something cold around his body and sometimes when he slept, something walked across him. Taxi drivers say they don’t often go to the worst-hit areas because they are scared of ghosts.

Some people try to help those who have ghosts in their lives. Some people say that the ghost stories are just a way of people dealing with their loss. But nobody so far has been able to explain the big number of these stories about ghosts.

Deal with – handle
So far – until now
Worst-hit – most damaged

II – Have your say
1.Are Ghosts Real? Science says NO!

2.Psychologically, people who see ghost have something wrong with their mentality condition.
3.Spirits are more active at night. Some people think that this is due to less electronic disturbance and that they are able to produce more energy when not having to compete with various electric and electronic devices. In the same sense, you are more likely to experience ghostly disturbances when your house is quiet.
