Scientists reckon they have cracked the secrets of the paranormal.

Have they found indisputable evidence that there is life after death? Well, not exactly… they put it down to mold.

Tales of ghosts and spirits have been a common theme of all cultures around the world for thousands of years.

But researchers from Clarkson University in New York think they may be able to shed some light on the phenomenon thanks to the discovery of a possible link between supernatural encounters and the toxic effects of some types of mold spores when they are inadvertently breathed in.

Basically, scientists believe that poor air quality may be a contributing factor in reports of the paranormal.

The team found that many paranormal experiences are very similar to the hallucinogenic effects of the spores which can cause significant mental or neurological symptoms.

‘Hauntings are often reported in older-built structures that may also suffer poor air quality,’ said civil and environmental engineer Shane Rogers.

‘Similarly, some people have reported depression, anxiety and other effects from exposure to biological pollutants in indoor air.’

So if you think your house is haunted maybe forget the seance and crack out the mold remover spray.
