As we are talking about creepy ancestors and the like - has anyone every
smelled a ghost. Something like a favourite perfume that the person used to
use? I have - I have had the smell of lavender round me when I was doing
something REALLY important, that was my friend who used to love lavender.
Nobody else could smell the perfume - only me. It was very weird indeed.
She died in 2002.
