Is it normal to see a ghost?

When I was a child I saw a ghost... I am absolutely serious. My house is over 100 years old and one night I woke up for no real reason and there was "something" standing in my doorway.
It looked like a man but he was dark, almost like he was made of shadows. It stood there for about 2 minutes then it walked away into the wall. The next morning, after I finally managed to go back to sleep a picture of my Great-Grandpa had fell off of a table for no apparent reason. I told my father the whole story he said I was probably still asleep but I knew I had never been more awake or more scared in my whole life. Years later as an adult my father admitted that he and several other people had seen basically the same thing in our house, and that my Great-Grandfather had actually died of a heart attack in the hallway just outside my room. I truly believe that what I saw was real.
Is it normal to believe you have seen a ghost?

    It's completely normal. I've seen one as well, when I was like 13-14 years old. But it was not like you described it though. Mine was completely white, as if made by pure light. And it had (or at least looked like it) red eyes, I kid you not. It just stood in my doorway, kind of like staring at me. Then it disappeared into the closet, from whence it came. I have never been so scared in my entire life. I didn't even dare to reach out my arm to turn on the lamp in fear of something grabbing it. Of course noone believed me when I told my family about it the next day, everyone said it must surely have been a dream, or else that my eyes played a trick on me. But I know what I saw that night, even now, 7 years later.

    Believe me, everyone has seen something paranormal, whether they admit it or not.

    Only problem is that it wasnt your Grandfather. Just another Evil Spirit. If they were Ghosts of dead people continually scaring people than we would have way more experiences than there are, and there are alot but not as many as a billion dead people would bring. We do have Spirits However but they either go up or down.

    Might be sleep paralysis. It sometimes happens when you wake up that you're still partially asleep and the dream you were having merges with reality.

    I saw one when I was younger. Once outside my house and once inside. I just shrugged it off.
