    Are you convinced that this ghost exists? If not contact Viacom for confirmation.

    If that is not enough to convince you, perhaps this will tip the scales...

    If I'm to go with the presumption that you mean an entity that departs from a lifeform once it is deceased, how does one come to the conclusion that ghosts do or don't exist, as opposed to being open to the possibility either way by means of being provided valid demonstration?

    For those who say ghosts exist , my position is I lack a belief in ghosts as in i’ve not  seen evidence that would convince me as to their existence , so likewise the burden of proof is on them to demonstrate such
