    Ghost in the sense of spirits wandering around? Could yo clarify what you mean by ghosts? In general what comes to my mind is 
    a. they can go through walls,
    b. they possess intelligence,
    c. they can move things,
    d. they appear as 'foggy-looking' see-through-type beings,

  • @KdCuber The characteristics of ghost I have in my mind is :
    1. Spiritual being
    2. Able to move things and make sound
    3. Makes people scared even without being seen
    4. Have foggy looking appearance

    In those regards, I am extremely positive that ghosts don't exist, because the LHC (large hadron collider at CERN) would have detected them. 

    The LHC is the biggest particle accelerator in the world, it is made of a huge ring of superconducting magnets that can generate electromagnetic fields of such strength, that they are capable of accelerating subatomic particles at unimaginable speed (fractions of the speed of light). CERN usually uses the LHC to collide particles, and seeing what elementary particles are formed during the collision. This is exactly how the Higg's boson was discovered experimentally. 

    If ghosts existed, then they would need to be made purely of energy, since by their very definition they can't be made of matter. As we said, they are able to move things and make sound (which requires energy), but has a foggy looking experience, can move through walls, and can't really "be seen" by people.  

    One major problem with saying that they are purely made of energy is that by the Second Law of thermodynamics, they'd just dissipate and stop existing. Indeed, according the laws of thermodynamics energy is always lost to heat, hence entropy of a system (its "randomness" we could say) must always increase, it mustn't decrease. Since we are not in a state of thermodynamic equilibrium, entropy must increase, and hence the energy of the ghost must dissipate into the external system. 

    The only way that they would be able to avoid that would be to have an incoming source of their own energy, so that they have a continous income of energy to avoid dissipation. But there is nothing to account for that in the standard model of physics or anything we've seen in the particle accelerator.

    "If we want some sort of pattern that carries information about our living cells to persist then we must specify precisely what medium carries that pattern and how it interacts with the matter particles out of which our bodies are made," said Brian Cox (a famous physicist) in a special edition of his podcast The Infinite Monkey Cage that focused on the paranormal. "We must, in other words, invent an extension to the Standard Model of Particle Physics that has escaped detection at the Large Hadron Collider. That’s almost inconceivable at the energy scales typical of the particle interactions in our bodies."

    You ask a dangerous question.

    It is advised to be wary of the spirits that are not from Jesus Christ.

    Since most people don't know, fallen angels which are misunderstood in Greek literature and falsely reffered to as god's had sexual relations with human beings.

    The reason Greek literature is so rife with what charecteristically defines fallen angels is because the Greeks could not interpret what their seeing.

    I'm going to tell you to stay away from the paranormal for your own sake.

    Your curiosity is prompter by evil spirits.

    I'm not going to tell you more than that.

    Stay away from what your culture is known for.

    As a warning stay away from the dark side of life.

    You don't want to figure out what's real by meddling, it's going to hurt you psychologically and spiritually.

    Stay away.

    And read Romans 10:9.

    You can find out what's real spiritually with Jesus Christ not curiosity.

    Jesus is Lord God.

    How can you prove that fallen angels had sexual relationship with people(without referring to Bible)?

    >>Since most people don't know, fallen angels which are misunderstood in Greek literature and falsely reffered to as god's had sexual relations with human beings.

    It is a common misconception that this was the case, it is just a gnostic fable.

    The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of man and they bore children to them. These were the mighty men who were of old, the men of renown. (Genesis 6:4)

    In today's vernacular we use a certain idiom, "Titans of Industry". In greek literature they are the children of Uranus, tantamount to being a race of "gods", yet in our usage it is not meant literally. Similarly, Nephilim (men of renown) is a symbolic word with similar connotations as our modern usage of Titan.

    The word also reappears in the Book of Numbers;

    So they brought to the people of Israel a bad report of the land that they had spied out, saying, “The land, through which we have gone to spy it out, is a land that devours its inhabitants, and all the people that we saw in it are of great height. And there we saw the Nephilim (the sons of Anak, who come from the Nephilim), and we seemed to ourselves like grasshoppers, and so we seemed to them.” (Numbers 13:32-33)

    In verse 32 what is most likely being referred to here is the size of their culture as a whole as referenced by a "land that devours" and "all the people", not the height of individuals. See Strong's 4060

    Just let the text define who they are: men of renown

    I personally do not believe ghosts exist but I believe spirits exist so after a body dies the spirit/soul/conciousness comes out as energy and comes to live a new life as an alien.
