Maybe… Depends on how you believe in ghosts. Some beliefs say wood can hold the spirits, so if that’s what you think I imagine replacing the ghost filled wood would remove the ghosts.
If you don’t believe in ghosts at all, well, then this is kind of a weird thing to ask. 🤷♂️
Probably not, because when one piece gets replaced the ghosts in the surrounding pieces inhabit the new piece before another piece can be replaced.
Turns out ghosts were just termites all along.
There are no ghosts.
If there were a phone in the house, who ya gonna call?
I heard a ghost story about a college dorm that caught on fire and burned to the ground. The school rebuilt it but the floors were spaced differently so the ghost would appear at the old floor’s level. So half a ghost popping up through the floor or little ghost legs popping down for the ceiling.
It seems to me that ghost location is relative to sea level. Maybe they attach to the closest neat rock in the case of a fire. Anyway, tumbling them for several weeks seems to detach the ghosts because my rock collection shows no signs of apparitions.
Since ghosts aren’t real and were never there to begin with, they can’t really “go away”, so I’m going to say no.
Boooo
You’re boring
OP should’ve posted to [email protected], if they want meme answers. If they want a factual answer, then “ghosts don’t exist” is that.
In the immortal words of Stan Lee. “It’s a story, it depends on what the writer decides.”
Are they attached to the physical house or to the idea of the house?
Sissyphus’s boulder rolled down and demolished that house, is Sissyphus happy?
One must imagine Sisyphus happy, the haunted house of Theseus was really driving down property values.
at least the area is still connected with public transport. the trolley service is great, hopefully no one ties anyone on the rails.
What if they’re haunting the physical location and not just the building? I’ll have to check the ghost handbook.
If the ghosts are of ded contemporary physicists they’re probably haunting the region of space that our solar system occupied in the galaxy when they died.
So mostly floating in space
Let me know what you find
If you dig the location up enough do they leave or haunt it more? Just sort of angrily floating where the ground used to be?
ghosts are like fungus in the timber, sure you can replace every part one-by-one and they go away, but miss one and the smell won’t go out and re-infect the whole house. so it’s not really worth it.
It depends on how quickly each piece is replaced. It takes some time for the ghost to attach to new boatds and beams. And thats of course not considering haunted indian burial grounds, creepy mirrors or goth chicks moving in, that yhrows the calculations way off.
New ghost busting method: just keep replacing floorboards one at a time until you find the one that the ghost is attached to, then send it to landfill.
Landfills must be full of angry ghosts from demolished buildings.
Build an entire new home all out of materials from previous haunted houses with ghosts attached to them and have them brawl it out battle royale style. Every nail, Every board, Every strut should come with a ghost.
I actually love this idea as the big boss for a paranormal investigation table top. Have the villain of the story build a haunted mansion out if stollen ghosts.
Ghost stories are about haunted and damaged people. Not actual ghosts. So no, the individual/s being haunted would still be haunted.
Most ghost stories I’ve read have been about haunted places and haunted things
ghost stories are mostly about microorganisms that people couldn’t see before microscopes were invented.
I’m sure some are about carbon monoxide.
