That’s why these types of hauntings are also frequently known as intelligent hauntings. The best way to stop this type of haunting is by simply listening to what they have to say, and allowing them to feel like they have achieved what they needed to achieve before passing on to the other side. They are ghosts of people who have been close to you, and they have returned to either provide you with closure to their death or to pass on information that they believe it is important for you to have. In nearly all cases, the interactive spirit is haunting for a reason. They are said to be able to maintain much of their personality from when they were alive. Interactive ghosts are the most common type of ghost in the world. Examples of interaction from ghosts and spirits include brief physical touch, scents like perfumes or cigar smoke, and even actual apparitions (where they are able to be seen by the living).

This can happen in a variety of different ways, and can really vary depending on the type of ghost. One of the most obvious ways that ghosts and spirits reach us is through interaction. Blue orbs are usually a spirit who seeks to be a guide, while grey may mean the spirit is depressed or confused. White or silver orbs are generally seen as very positive and protective in nature, while brown or black orbs indicate a negative presence or an unsafe area. For instance, a clear orb may indicate that the spirit wants to communicate with you, or that they are specifically attached to the area they are seen in. There are also common theories about the meaning of the color of an orb. Orbs that have been present in the physical world for a long enough amount of time are more likely to be able to successfully perform full-body apparition. Orbs are said to be a soul (normally either from a human or an animal) that is traveling in the shape of a circle, as it is the easiest way for them to get around.

Although many orbs can be disproven as just tricks of the light or flaws on the film, genuine orbs do exist and have been documented for as long as the camera has been around. Possibly the most well-known type of apparition, orbs are those tiny balls of light/energy (most often seen as white or blue) that appear mostly when developing photographs. We’ve put together a list of the most common types that people encounter. Most people think that there are only one or two different types. The number of different types of ghosts and spirits and the ways they can attempt to make contact with the living may surprise you.
