Do Ghosts Eat?
On the surface, it may sound like a silly question, but I enjoy quantum physics and with the growing theory that we live in a reality filled with countless hidden dimensions, I think it's a viable question. Do ghosts eat?
If we believe ghosts/spirits are alive, then they will have to be sustained by some sort of intake of energy. Everything alive requires energy in the form of what we call food, and in most cases that food has to come from another energy-based being (we don't eat rocks after all).
In all of the hauntings I've studied, I have never heard of a ghost raiding the fridge in the middle of the night (they're too busy tickling our toes as we sleep). Of course they wouldn't raid our fridge; we can't eat food from another dimension, so they shouldn't be able to eat ours. Perhaps, like trees, they feed off some eternal light? Possible, but trees still need water and nutrients from dirt. If an ethereal body moves, which expends considerable energy, it seems more than light would be required; they would need something organic to sustain them.
With countless dimensions intertwined around us, the veil between them must be very thin. That might be why we see ghosts on occasion. There are areas where this veil is like a shear curtain, and we can see the shadows moving on the other side.
A big fallacy might be that we think our dimension is somehow different; more solid than others. Science has shown us for a long time that we, and everything around us, are mostly empty space. Particles regularly zoom through the entire planet without hitting even an atom or its components. Without electromagnetic forces to repel things from touching, we too might drift right through the earth (except without the forces, we and the earth wouldn't exist).
This argues that we are ghosts, too.
Other dimensions might seem ghostly because we see them on occasion through a thin veil, but likewise, you might be a shadow to some person who thinks he or she is solid in another dimension. They might be walking into the room right now, see your wispy outlines sitting there reading this, and shivers go down their spine as they run to call Ghostbusters. Congratulations, you've performed your first haunting.
To the inhabitants of other dimensions, they see their world just as solid as we see ours. They eat food, just as we do. They see ghosts, just as many claim do here. They are ghosts to us, just as we are to them. If we are ghosts, then ghosts must eat. Time to go tickle some toes.
