Natural "explanations"

I agree that most ghost sightings can be viewed as being very suspicious. Especially as most of these are anecdotal. Most people point to the fact that no definitive, undisputable, clear and accurate picture of a ghost has ever been taken. But does this mean that they don't exist? The eye is not a camera. It is true that there are some similarities - both having a lens etc. But it has never been proven one way or the other what the accurate range of light waves is that eyes are capable of picking up. It may well be that the eye is able to detect some subtle ranges that the crude camera cannot! Also we have to throw into the equation the fact that high EMF readings can affect our senses. As can infrasound.

When we take all this into account, how likely is it that two or more people will have exactly the same hallucination in the same location at the same time. Even mass hysteria needs some time to propagate!
When all reasonable doubt has been removed and two (or more) people see something anomalous then the argument stands that this is a real anomaly.
