They go out to these places and some, not all but some of them get bored if they don't see anything paranormal and trash these places. i understand that there will always be some bad apples out there but i also understand the power of suggestion especially to small town people with little to do. and one thing that should be stressed is the fact that going into cemeteries after dark is ILLEGAL and dangerous, i don't see these warnings often enough and should be stressed to any would be ghost hunter that happens upon the website. it is sad when i go to a graveyard that is supposedly haunted and find smashed graves. We need to remember that these "ghosts" and spirits were once real people with families and friends. lol now i will get off of my soap box happy hauntings Ive been in this field for about 7 years now and one thing i have learned is a story is never just a story and a legend is never just a legend, i have always had a problem with graveyards being on shadow-lands and other websites, teenagers and others who do not care about this field read and hear of these places and though i think it is great when people show an interest in the paranormal, they decide to investigate themselves.
