Scientists Create ‘Ghosts’ in the Lab by Tricking the Brain
Do you believe in ghosts? To some extent I think we all do, don’t deny it. But if you really think you don’t, then you might want to check this out because scientists in Switzerland have created the feeling of an unseen presence in the lab with a robotic device that induces a ‘ghostly’ sensation.


Cool or creepy?
We will leave that one up to you to decided. But next time you feel a tingling sensation you may want to think twice before brushing it off thinking it was just the wind! Who knows?! Maybe a robo ghost is prepping for a high-tech haunting!
